Starting from the Dragon Tribe

Time passes slowly, passing by everyone, and it is everyone's own business to decide how to spend it.

Lu Lin was fired after all. Being absent from work for four days was not the point. The point was that due to her absence and lack of manpower, a deal went wrong. The boss pushed the blame, and finally it fell on Lu Lin.

Hence the current scene. This eldest girl, who has regained her youth a lot, is shouting in front of the stall, selling various fish from Lake Bliss.

Yes, Lu Chen caught him.

Lu Lin was very curious, how did her brother catch so many fish? Could it be that after all these years of going crazy, he could somehow turn a person into a fishing expert?

She once wanted to go "fishing" with Lu Chen at Lake Bullius, but Lu Chen refused. She just returned shortly after going out in the morning with hundreds of kilograms of fish.

There are many relatively rare fish among them. A basket of fish can fetch a whopping price of three pounds!

In the fish market in Shangcheng District, stalls require rent and management fees, which cost two shillings a day. Lu Lin was originally worried about how to manage the tax, but Lu Chen said to leave it to him.

As a result, my younger brother ran to the corner and had a friendly negotiation with the manager. The middle-aged, stingy, yellow-haired man actually relented and said that the management fee would be waived on the first day, and he would just pay it after that.

Lu Lin was shocked by her brother's negotiation skills. Originally, she was worried that Lu Chen would be out of touch with society and unable to communicate with other people normally.

In fact, Lu Lin misunderstood, and Lu Chen did not communicate with the other party normally...

After some hiccups, Lu Lin successfully transformed from a clerk into a glorious aquatic product proprietress because Lu Chen had no cost to catch fish and could earn nearly three pounds every day.

This made Lu Lin feel like she was in a dream. She made more money in one day than in the previous month. She prayed to the Goddess of Morning Embrace every day and thanked her for bringing her brother back.

But Lu Chen was a little dissatisfied because he found that after he caught fish and asked his sister to sell it, the money he got could not be used for certification.

He thought that although he was plundering the biological products of the waters, it could be regarded as a kind of hard work to get rich. Why not?

After he communicated with Chu Zihang, Chu Zihang was silent for a while and said: "Brother Lu, don't think about speculation. Your strength is enough to drain a river of fish, and even take out all marine assets. If you realize it, If it can be used as currency for exchange, then the implicit rule is broken."

Lu Chen thought about it carefully. Thinking about it, it was no different from robbing a bank. The only difference was that it was not illegal.

But no matter what, because of his daily fishing, the living conditions of the siblings have improved.

He left the cramped and cramped house, no longer had to hear Mr. Pukins' nagging complaints, and moved into a house uptown.

The house is divided into two floors, with a bathroom on the upper and lower floors. In addition to the living room on the first floor, there are a total of three empty rooms.

Originally, Lu Lin refused, saying that Lu Chen's luck could not always be so good, and she had always suspected that her brother's fishing methods were fishy, ​​and thought that this income would not last long.

So she wanted to save her money and live in Xiacheng District first. Anyway, they had lived there for so many years and were used to it.

But Lu Chen disagreed. He felt that living there was too inconvenient and there was no private space. Every time he communicated with his teammates or sat there lost in thought, Lu Lin would easily think that he had changed.

Moreover, Lu Lin didn't seem to regard her younger brother as an adult male. She always looked at Lu Chen as if she were looking at a ten-year-old child, and she didn't care much about her personal life, which was very bad.

Lu Chen chose their new home on Kingland's First Avenue, not far from Morning Embrace Church. The rent was four pounds per week, which was twenty times the price of their former small house next to the uptown area. However, it was fully furnished and ready for move-in. , the spacious environment makes you feel comfortable.

But in terms of life, Lu Lin is still very frugal. In her words, it is best to leave some money just in case.

In fact, Lu Chen knew that Lu Lin was afraid that she would suddenly go crazy again and wanted to save money for medical treatment.

After spending a week and a half in this kind of life, Lu Chen felt a little bored. He already knew enough about the humanities and history of the God-Forsaken Land, but the main mission had not yet arrived.

This means that his financial resources and influence are still very weak, and some of the special features of this identity have not yet been discovered by him.

When Lu Chen was living a leisurely life of fishing, it was said that Chu Zihang had become an official craftsman in the land of steam and machinery, and his weekly salary was equivalent to twenty pounds when converted to the Sistine Empire.

At first, Lu Chen was surprised as to why it was so high, because according to Lu Lin, the official salary of the official priest of Morning Support Church was only 12 pounds and 7 shillings.

After Chu Zihang explained, Lu Chen understood that in the country of steam and machinery, the status of craftsmen was very high, basically comparable to the clergy of the Sistine Empire.

Chu Zihang was prospering there. In just one week, he had learned the special basic knowledge of steam and machinery in this world, and performed well enough to get a full-time job.

According to him, in the capital of the Kingdom of Steam and Machinery, he met at least six explorers, all of whom were "working hard" to learn this knowledge.

Chu Zihang's alchemy and magic machinery have always been among the best in his grade at Cassel College. It was not difficult to learn these, and he found that these seemingly simple new theories contained some extraordinary truth.

This is also the reason why so many explorers are willing to work there. Knowledge and skills themselves are a kind of wealth.

As for Xia Mi, her chosen identity is that of a rich lady. She has now run away from home and embarked on a journey to find her husband.

The main reason was that she saw several explorers, all of whom were stronger than her, and it was unwise and insecure to be alone.

The most chic thing I have ever done is Eriyi.

In the royal capital, she is the young daughter of a grand duke. She is favored by thousands of people and has close ties with the royal family. Although she has just reached the social age, she has already been introduced to the royal family's dining table, which is enough to highlight her status.

Apart from reading books in the house every day, learning about the detailed history of the Sistine Empire and various truths that commoners could not know, she just enjoyed the life of a noble lady.

Eat, drink, sleep...

Eriki once secretly complained to Lu Chen that if the explorer's physique was not very balanced, she would be afraid that she would gain weight.

What she loves to do most every day is to tell Lu Chen the taste of each dish during dinner in the team channel, which makes Lu Chen very happy.

Just when Lu Chen couldn't stand such a dull and boring life and wanted to do something, a group of men wearing black windbreakers and solemn faces like soldiers came to the lower city of Jinkelan City.

Mr. Pugins was sitting on the lounge chair in front of the door, lazily basking in the sun, spitting, and then eating melon seeds, enjoying his decadent life.

Suddenly, I felt that the sun was dimming. It was not the dark clouds, but something gloomier and darker that blocked the sun.

A black-haired man wearing a black trench coat and about 1.8 meters tall stood in front of him, blocking the sun. He wore a jazz hat on his head, his face was expressionless, and his eyes had a faint solemnity, as if He has experienced many lives and deaths and survived.

There was a dark thorn flower badge on the chest of his windbreaker. When the light hit it, it was swallowed up without a trace.

The four men behind him, two yellow men and two white men, all had similar auras to him.

Pukins trembled. He didn't know who these people were, but he was instinctively afraid.

Could it be that any of the lowly poor people living in their own houses had dirty hands and feet and offended the big shots in the city?

But these don’t look like law enforcement officers, do they? The law enforcement officer's clothes were green, and he had seen them several times.

"Masters, what do you want?"

Pugins' legs were a little weak, but he still managed to stand up and asked with a smile on his face.

As he said that, he stepped aside and pointed to the door, "I am a good citizen. If someone commits a crime, please go in and arrest them. Don't worry about me as the 'landlord'."

He emphasized the word "landlord" very strongly, indicating that he was just renting out the house and had nothing to do with the tenants inside.

The winter wind in the afternoon was not so cold, blowing the short hair of the black-haired man. His voice was low and hoarse, as if he had been harmed by tobacco all year round. "Lu Chen, Lu Lin, do these two people live here?"

After hearing this, Pugins was stunned for a moment, and then breathed a sigh of relief, "Sir, they moved out last week, and the damn liquidated damages were three shillings less than paid to me. If these gentlemen want to arrest them, I support them with both hands and feet."

The leading man frowned after hearing this, "Moved? Where?"

He was a little dissatisfied. What was the intelligence department doing below? Why was the relocation not mentioned in the document?

"Masters, I really don't know this, but they should be looking for them at a rental agency in the city. You may be able to find information there."

Pugins was trembling a little in his heart, wondering if he wasn't here to arrest someone? But the relatives of the cheap brother and sister?

The leading man took off his jazz hat and saluted slightly, "Sorry to bother you."

Pugins waved his hands repeatedly and said he didn't dare. After watching the group leave the street in darkness, he sat on a stool and took a deep breath.

Although the other party showed no hostility, just looking at him made him breathless.

This feeling was just like... just like... the way that crazy boy Lu Chen felt when he looked at me that night.

No, why do you feel that the crazy boy’s eyes are more terrifying?

Pugins was very angry when he heard that the two siblings wanted to move out, because their contract stipulated that they would pay annual rent. If they broke the contract, they would have to pay up to three months' rent, depending on the situation.

But with that crazy boy looking at him, he somehow didn't have the courage to speak out and only asked for a liquidated damages of three shillings.

Because of this loss, he couldn't sleep well these days.

In fact, Lu Lin originally said that as long as they said they had no money to pay for rent and if they were allowed to default for a few weeks, Pugins would kick them out directly, and the issue of liquidated damages would naturally disappear.

But Lu Chen said that it would be better to withdraw normally, because after a thorough scan of the original owner's memory, he could know that although Mr. Pukins was stingy and sometimes evil-minded, his rent was indeed not much, and in the original owner's home, Mr. Even though the landlord screamed many times at night, he didn't evict anyone. He was considered a relatively conscientious landlord.

A breach of contract is a breach of contract, and they are not short of that little money, they are just a small person.

He looked at Pukins without any intention of threatening him, but he was just timid.

The sun was setting in the west, and its dim light shone on the dome of Morning Embrace Church, stretching its shadow long on First Avenue.

After a day's work, Lu Lin's face was filled with joy. She put her purse inside her skirt, covered it tightly, and walked back to the new house where she and her brother lived.

Lu Chen was bored and followed Lu Lin on the road. When he saw a group of men in black standing in front of the house, there was a slight fluctuation in his eyes.

It finally came. He had already guessed that this identity was definitely not simple.

Rather, as the only survivor of the catastrophe, "Lu Chen" was put aside by the Morning Embrace Church, which seemed very abnormal.

It is unreasonable no matter how you look at it, to release civilians who have witnessed the mysterious incident without making them sign a confidentiality agreement.

"Gentlemen, what can I do for you?"

Lu Lin greeted them timidly, mainly because she felt that these men were very unkind and gave people an indescribable feeling, as if they were entangled by an unknown force.

The leading man took off his hat, put his hand on his chest, bowed slightly, and said very politely: "Is this Miss Lu Lin..."

He shifted his gaze slightly and looked at the man standing behind Lu Lin, "...and Mr. Lu Chen?"

Lu Lin looked at these strangers with doubts in her eyes. For some reason, she felt that these people were very nervous at this time. Their close-fitting clothes were slightly bulging, as if they were wild leopards about to hunt their prey.

These men in black had to be nervous. After the leading man looked at Lu Chen, the others followed suit. In just a moment, they felt as if they were facing the biggest weirdness and the ultimate fear.

In the eyes of extraordinary beings like them, a man's aura is simply a thick red color, with a smell of blood. That evil aura makes their muscles tremble unconsciously, causing the body's autonomous defense mechanism to tremble. Let them unconsciously be in a state of tense physical preparation for war.

What does Archbishop mean? ? Let's bring back monsters like this! ?

Shouldn't a dangerous-level night watchman team be dispatched to kill such a being on the spot? ?

Lu Chen looked at these men, tried his best to smile as kindly as possible, and took a step forward, wanting to say hello to each other.

But the next moment, the five men all retreated with frightened expressions on their faces. Even the leading man pulled out a silver-plated scimitar from behind and almost lost his patience and slashed at him.

Lu Chen paused and frowned, and the men backed away again, looking wary.

"Gentlemen, what do you mean? I'm not that scary, am I?"

It wasn't until Lu Chen spoke that the men's muscles relaxed slightly.

The leading man looked at Lu Chen with surprise in his eyes, "Can you speak!?"
