Star of Civilization

A wide and straight road traverses the wilderness, some of the gravel on the roadbed has long gone missing, and occasionally some thin asphalt can be seen, which is already a good road.

Brown rocks gradually replaced the yellow and black sand dunes, and green plants began to grow.

This is the main road leading to the "mine city".

The towering mountains in the distance stretched vertically and horizontally behind the hilly area, like building blocks stacked one after another.

Broken roads and bridges across the riverbed can be seen everywhere in this area. But there is no water in the river, and the bridge is no longer a bridge—only a few columns and fracture surfaces remain.

What is common along the way, separated by barbed wire by the side of the road, is a semi-abandoned field. There are also vegetable gardens or pastures that are divided into small pieces by fences. Near such places, there are probably human settlements or even small towns.

"Wow!"

A modified car galloped past, overtaking the roaring locomotive.

"Yeah~ the old man's car is so fierce!" a mob who started the car yelled, but soon the scream was forgotten by the modified car...

The speed of this car is absolutely like a meteor rushing to the moon, rolling up a khaki storm. The "buzzing" sound generated by the motor surpassed that of a motor with the same output power, and also left the caravans of cars on the road far behind.

This is a streamlined, dilapidated modified car-the front is oblate, there is a horizontal tail at the rear, and two huge jet engines hung below it.

But this jet engine is just a decoration, and the owner of the car likes it very much.

"Hahaha! Eat my P, bastards!"

The man who drove was a mentally old man wearing goggles. He raised his head and took another sip of the liquid from the iron pot. With a white beard, two big front teeth were revealed with a grin, and the co-pilot sat a teenager who also wore goggles.

That young man is Humfete, and the old man is naturally his grandfather Humbarton.

The two people were in the mine city. They thought they would be able to buy the advanced parts that were rebuilt after being unearthed smoothly, but things went against their wishes...

They only bought some very common things.

Fortunately, there are a few old friends of Patton. They moved to live here in Mine City a long time ago. These people are quite skilled engineering technicians.

Therefore, Fett and his grandfather lived in the houses of several old friends for several months.

I go to the nearby town every day to buy the parts they need, and inquire where more advanced parts are on sale.

Fortunately, this place not only has a large population, but also has a great demand for machinery products. Senior mechanical technicians like them have always been respected.

There are many local workshops here also manufacturing production and living machinery. There is also a large-scale agricultural machinery manufacturing plant called "Heavy Air Hammer", which is well-known throughout the central mainland.

The two of them spent money here, so they soon became ashamed.

What should I do if I have no money?

This is not a difficult task for them-if you have craftsmanship, are you afraid of not having money?

Both masters are very skilled, so they simply save money by doing some mechanical modification and maintenance locally.

In the past few months, there have been countless machines tuned by the two masters, but mainly vehicle engines. After things passed their hands, their performance became much stronger.

Over time, there have been more repeat customers, and even many nobles have come here admiringly.

This made the nearby mechanical workshops and repair shops extremely jealous-because of their existence, these shops in the town were left out in front of the door...

In this way, they helped some powerful groups or nobles to modify a lot of vehicles and made a lot of money.

In this way, they can more or less cover their huge expenses.

They didn't count how much they spent, and the money also included those that Joeyina asked her men to bring.

Those subordinates were originally ordered by Joyna to follow them, but they were soon sent back to the west by Father Patton.

In the past few days, Barton thought about the money and prepared a lot, he should go to other big towns. He is going to buy a battery that is rumored to be able to drive the entire motor with just one strand of hair.

"I said, do we really have to go to that kind of black market to get it, sir?"

Fett seems to be a little reluctant to grandpa's decision. There is the largest black market on the Central Continent, where there is a mixture of fish and dragons. For travelers like them without background, it might be very dangerous.

"Then I need to say, didn't people tell us clearly? That thing is originally rare, and even less can flow outside, and money can't be bought in other places!"

After many investigations a few days ago, they finally learned that in the most prosperous main city of Mine City, there was a black market event recently.

To say it is a "black market" is not always true. There are still some forces that manage it in half light and half darkness. It is said that these forces have something to do with the local nobles. But because it was only semi-public, and no force jumped out to clarify its legitimacy, people familiar with it called it the "black market."

There are not only a wide variety of commodities—from slaves to science and technology unearthed by pre-civilizations, from livestock to equipment transformed with precision materials in factories, and even military supplies. In short, almost anything can be sold, and all kinds of rare things are asking for prices, so it is indeed very "black"...

Many large merchants in the Central Continent or other regional gangs regularly come here to buy and trade.

It is said that this event is very unusual and was jointly hosted by several noble gangs with background. In addition, they also spent a lot of money to hire a powerful hunter group to maintain law and order on the scene and the surrounding area.

...

"Boy, don't worry, have you seen this?"

The old man didn't know where he was from, so he got a double-barreled short gun, which looked like a shotgun for hunting.

After speaking, he poured another sip of spirits into his mouth—a bottle of fine wine from the nobleman.

"Ka Ka!" The old man pressed the mechanism, his arm shook, and the breech of the gun revealed two large shotgun tails with red circles.

"Well, is this a hunting gun?" Fett asked.

"Hi! Do you care whether it is hunting or beating? Self-defense is enough, but the power is big enough!"

"Ah! Be careful that..."

Fett suddenly raised his head and saw a broken ditch suddenly appeared in front of the road.

A deep gully, as if the road was cut off by someone.

"Squeak! Crunch—"

Accompanied by the sound of friction, a pungent scent of burnt Hu was floating.

The old man Barton made a crazy emergency stop and drifted, and the body of the car leaping towards the roadbed stopped, and a huge dust was raised behind the car.

"Asshole, who made this big hole!" Barton yelled.

Before he could finish speaking, several thugs armed to the teeth rushed out on both sides of the road.

The two of them were dumbfounded at once~www.ltnovel.com~ A powerful shotgun, it doesn't work well when facing so many people.

Father Barton is anxious to get wise, slams on the accelerator and reverses!

"Puff!" There was a violent deflation sound...

I don't know when a row of spikes was placed on the road behind.

"Haha, idiot!"

A mob in khaki-colored clothes rushed up and pointed a gun at them.

"Get off the car! Throw all your valuables on the ground!"

Several other thugs also surrounded them with their weapons.

"Well, don't shoot, I will give you everything on your body..."

"Yeah! With a big spray? Just be honest and put your hands behind your head!"

A mob grabbed the shotgun from the car as soon as he reached out his hand.

Patton was also refreshed. He didn't encounter such thugs who blocked the road and robbed them once or twice. They didn't want to shoot as long as they gave them something.

Most of these people are stragglers in this area--the really powerful gangs will only rob those big caravans or people with plenty of oil and water, so they don’t bother to care about travelers like them...

"Wait! What is that?"

Suddenly, Fett yelled, then his expression was stiff and his eyes were wide open.

I saw him looking up to the sky, his mouth wide open. When he held his head just now, he saw a miracle—someone was flying in the air?

"Stop this set! I want to scare our brothers, you are still tender!"

The guy in the lead said, but he looked up vigilantly and glanced in the direction he was looking, but he didn't see anything at all.

"Bah! I want to lie to the university..."

Before he could say the word "Master", he felt as if he had been shocked by an electric shock, his neck crooked, his mouth spat and twitched for a while, and he collapsed to the ground!
