Utopia

Chapter 9 Blindly approaching the target will bring great risks

When Sogen took out the scimitar, scroll, and gems in his hand as trading materials, Luo Shan and Beth couldn't believe it.

"Do you... do you know how much the scroll you took out is worth?"

"I don't know. Anyway, this target is very concerned about this painting."

"Alas! This is a portrait of the Golden Dragon God, an important prop for the Golden Dragon God believers to worship every day. Such a painting requires 5 grams of gold to buy it."

"What?"

Sogen, who knew the basic concept of weights and measures, looked confused, and Luo Shan was helpless. He had to explain basic economic knowledge to this illiterate while doing the simplest literacy work for him.

"This word..."

"Sogen, I'm not afraid to tell you. We brown-skinned Kalai basically don't know how to write and read the words of the United Kingdom of Eri. In order to facilitate communication, we have to use the human written language from the East."

As Luo Shan told the story, Sogen looked embarrassed. Since the establishment of the United Kingdom of Eri more than 10,000 years ago, the Brown-skinned Kalai have been in a state of slavery.

The result is just as Sogen himself experienced. The Brown-skinned Kalai members are not qualified to receive any education, and are not allowed to live in the community where the White-skinned Kalai members live. Even if they go to the temple of the Golden Dragon God to worship the Golden Dragon God, they must be led by the druids. Every Brown-skinned Kalai member can only walk under the scorching sun and sweep away their footprints.

However, Sogen himself knows that the druids of Eri are not willing to do this. Because it will dirty the temple and poison the sight of other White-skinned Kalai who believe in the Golden Dragon God. If it is not done well, the other White-skinned Kalai will collectively besiege them in a minute, causing the temple to become the execution ground for the Brown-skinned Kalai members.

"I understand this. Then... So no one here knows the Eri language?"

"What? You want to learn it?"

"No, no, no. If I learn it, will those law enforcement officers and druids outside let me go? No! I'm already like this, why should I be afraid of them?"

Since he has lost everything, why should he show mercy to the outside world? And now he is more determined that as an alien, he is destined not to be accepted by the United Kingdom of Eri.

A slave who can spell is more terrifying to the master than a bomb that can explode at any time.

"So, you learn a few words every day, then pick up a pen and learn how to write well. In Dieli, it is absolutely impossible to be illiterate. Then what kind of weapon do you want?"

"First of all, an axe..."

"Stop! Axe? Have you ever seen an assassin who goes out to assassinate with an axe?"

"I used to chop trees with an axe."

When Luo Shan heard Sogen's answer, he couldn't help but get angry. And the woman named Beth, Kale, walked up quickly and immediately patted Luo Shan on the back.

"Yes... No! Even if you wear a mask and look like a white-skinned Kalai, and walk out with an axe... Do you think the law enforcement officer outside is blind?"

"I chopped off the law enforcement officer's head."

"Shut up! Axe, axe... Beth, give him a saber."

"Saber? What?"

As the woman named Beth took out a dark red broadsword with a square full-covered hand guard from a display cabinet, Sogen was confused.

"Sogen, this saber is a copy of a weapon used by human armies. It is 8 cm long, 7 cm long, 25 cm long, 1 cm thick, and weighs 4 kg. Instead of using an axe, I'll just give you this."

"Hmm..."

"Also, I'm not responsible for sharpening the knife here, you can do it yourself."

"Okay. Isn't it just sharpening the knife? Just like sharpening the axe before."

Luo Shan was so angry that he almost jumped up because of the guy who was going from illiterate to knowing the basic concepts, while Beth continued to comfort Luo Shan and stop him from getting angry.

"I... um..."

"Dad, don't be angry."

"I... um... uh... cough cough. Beth, remember, don't learn from him, Sogen, and don't find a husband like Sogen. I'm so angry! Sogen, you, I asked you to kill the target and get the necklace. You, tell me, how many did you kill?"

"Three."

"Three? The other two are... forget it, I don't want to ask, what else do you want to buy next?"

"Thirty rounds of Soul Eater Revolver bullets and a good rifle. I don't want to accept the task you assign in a close combat way."

"Because everyone doesn't understand magic, blindly approaching the target will be very risky."

Although Luo Shan came to this conclusion, Sogen, who deliberately didn't talk about his own abilities, felt depressed when he looked at the rifle given to him by Luo Shan.

[To be honest, I have been using it recently, both Android and Apple are available. 】

However, this depression did not last long. He had received rifle shooting training and understood the importance of the weapon in his hand to himself.

Magic is not exclusive to him as a member of Kalai, and he can use magic because of Master Nofalis.

"Luo Shan, this gun..."

"Head lever rifle, but I installed this thing for you, an optical sight."

Although the rifle was still a rifle he knew and was familiar with, Sogen felt strange and curious when he looked at the cylindrical object on the rifle.

"What is the use of this tube?"

"Sogen, pick it up and look inside along the direction of the buttstock."

Compared to the verbal answer, Luo Shan just asked him to hold the rifle and look inside according to the normal aiming method.

"Hmm? Here... two black intersecting lines! And, is the scene inside bigger..."

"Do you know a telescope?"

"I don't know."

"This is also what we smuggled from humans in the East. The optical sight used on the rifle you are holding now is imported. One optical sight is equivalent to the price of six Head lever rifles. But I also know that it's time for me to explain it well. Lest you... Alas!"

As he spoke, Luo Shan still demonstrated in person and removed the optical sight on the Head lever rifle in Sogen's hand from the rail. Then Luo Shan adjusted a knob on the left side of the optical sight and asked Sogen to look at the weapons and equipment in the arsenal again.

"Why is it so blurry?"

"Because this optical sight itself is an adjustable telescope, which is convenient for you to adjust the distance for observation."

"But why did you give me such a thing? Aren't you afraid of me..."

"We have found your information in the Utopia Organization. At the same time, did you use some method to escape from Hengurid's hands?"
