Chapter 225 Everyone is second-order, but I'm not the same
Mr. Jing’s temperament, even if he doesn’t dress up deliberately, has an exquisiteness that makes people unable to take their eyes away.
She is wearing a very slim-fitting burgundy dress today. The style is not very luxurious, but it is graceful and elegant. Her hair is tied high, showing her mature charm.
Not only is Oldlington's technological level higher than that of Catulant Port, but its clothing style is also slightly different. Although this burgundy dress is simple in style, it looks more eye-catching than the bloated skirts with butterfly sleeves worn by ladies in the city.
Mr. Jing took off the sun hat on his head, revealing his cold and charming face.
Then, she put her hand on the energy-measuring crystal ball.
This time, the crystal ball didn't even light up.
Obviously, those tested are "ordinary people".
The guards at the city gate stared blankly for a moment, and even the people lining up in the distance took a second look...
A woman's whisper also came to my ears.
"I'm afraid that lady is from the Imperial Capital. Only the dresses designed by the senior designers in the Imperial Capital will look so beautiful."
"That's for sure. Tsk, look at that guy, he's so handsome."
""
But after all, there was no problem with the identity document, and he was not a wanted criminal. The city guards had nothing to do, and Su Lun and the two entered the city smoothly.
But at the same time, in the city gate tower, a man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks was taking a nap with his eyes narrowed. At this time, he was suddenly called by his subordinate: "Captain Burns, look, there is a very beautiful girl there!"
Upon hearing this, the thin monkey man on the chair immediately opened his eyes, raised his head and looked out the window, and happened to see the backs of Su Lun and Su Lun who had entered the city.
Pence's brother-in-law is a knight from the family of "Count Fog Moon", the lord of Kadurante Port. Relying on this relationship, he got a job as captain of the outer port city guard team.
"What are the backgrounds of those two people?"
"They come from southern Anlogos County."
"Is he a noble?"
"No. The man is a rune teacher, and the lady seems to be a rich girl. They are here for a trip."
"Haha, it's fine if they're not nobles. By the way, what level of professionals are they?"
"The man is second-level, and the woman is an ordinary person."
"Teacher? Ask the people from the 'Viper Gang' to get them here. Remember to remind them not to be so frivolous and wait for me to try it first!"
"Boss, I think the background of those two people is not simple. Do you want to investigate further?"
"Investigate a hammer! He's just a country boy from the south. No matter how old he is, he has to lie down when he comes to Kadurante. Even if something really goes wrong, just hang a few pirates and fool him."
.”
"Hehe, yes, boss!"
They have obviously done this kind of business more than once.
Su Lun sensed a few disgusting glances on the tower.
I thought that the Port of Caturante was a civilized territory, not as chaotic as Old Lington.
But it seems that wherever the sun shines on the earth, there must be sewer rats hiding in the shadows.
However, Mr. Jing did not express his position, nor did he say much.
As soon as he entered the city, Mr. Jing suddenly stopped, as if he sensed something.
Su Lun asked curiously: "Senior sister, what's wrong?"
Mr. Jing shook his head, "It's okay. I sensed that I, a fourth-generation blood descendant, was in the city."
After a pause, she murmured to herself: "I didn't expect that one was still passed down."
Four generations of blood descendants?
Are there other vampires in town?
As Su Lun listened, he realized that his world was still a very high-level vampire clan.
But I didn’t ask much.
Su Lun asked: "Senior sister, where are we going now?"
Mr. Hei and the others won't be able to arrive until tomorrow at the earliest, which means they need to stay in this city for a day.
Mr. Jing looked at the floating airship in the sky and seemed to be interested: "Let's go to the city and see how far civilization has progressed in a thousand years."
Su Lun nodded.
The two of them walked towards the inner city.
Most coastal cities are more prosperous than inland cities, and as the most prosperous seaport city in northern Luying, Jiaturant is naturally even more prosperous.
An inland river that flows into the sea divides the city into two halves. After entering the city gate, not far away, there is a huge white stone bridge.
The bridge is very wide, and every few dozen meters on both sides there is a statue of a soldier more than 20 meters tall.
When people walk under the statue, they will instinctively feel very small.
Su Lun looked up at these statues and felt a little incredible. To make so many stone carvings, the amount of work is not small.
Seeing his interest, Mr. Jing, who held Su Lun's arm, explained: "This is a common method used by those in power. Huge statues symbolize power and will always imply that civilians should have awe of those in power."
"That's it"
Su Lun's knowledge in this area is very limited, but it sounds like he has learned a lot.
Kadurante is a trade city. There is no industry, and the trading market is the busiest.
Su Lun and the others walked across the White Bridge and arrived at the shipping bulk trading market.
In the market square, there is a gallows built with wooden planks.
At this moment, three men in pirate costumes were tied tightly and were being hanged on the platform for execution.
They were not hanged directly. A noose was put around their necks, and the skin and flesh of their necks were torn apart. The height was exactly the height where they had to stand on their toes to avoid suffocation.
Pirates were unpopular in the city and would be tortured to death if caught.
On both sides of the street are shops selling a variety of goods, including furs, tea, ceramics, machinery, wood, ores, alchemy materials and slave shops.
The Luying Empire did not ban the sale of slaves, and it even relied on it in the past. The nobles also regarded the number of slaves as one of the core indicators of asset and status comparison.
There are not only human slaves, but also ice giants three to four meters tall, demi-humans in half-animal form, ugly trolls, and orcs.
The slaves were all shackled and had explosive collars around their necks.
The male slave was shirtless, with many wounds on his body and numbness on his face.
The female slaves are relatively good-looking and wear thin clothing that can cover their privacy. Even if customers need it, the slave merchant will let them naked and knead and inspect the goods.
Here, the cheapest one can be bought for tens of thousands of li.
In the Luying Empire, there was no difference between slaves and animals.
"Let's take a look. The wasteland giant has just been transported back. It only costs two million liso. It's an absolute status symbol."
"The new war slaves are a delicate young lady from a noble family in the Principality of Manor."
"A rabbit-like demi-human, very clingy, and a maid is the best choice. Come and come and see me. If the quantity is large, the best option will be given."
""
Su Lun and the two walked over, listening to the slave merchants shouting.
As we walked, a little girl came over holding a bouquet of flowers.
She handed the words to Su Lun and asked in a childish voice: "Sir, do you want to buy your beautiful wife a bouquet of roses?"
The roses on the ground are red, not the fluorescent ones underground.
Su Lun took out one and asked with a smile: "How much does it cost for a bunch?"
Girl: "Twenty liso."
Su Lun smiled and paid.
Although the currency in Old Town is called the same as on the ground, it is 10,000 liso for 1 gold crown.
But they are not the same currency, and their purchasing power is also very different.
One is a private seal, and the other is the common currency of the Luying Empire.
When Su Lun came out before, he mostly exchanged cash for various hard currency materials. Fortunately, he had robbed some pirates before and had some change in his pocket.
He bought a rose and handed it to the senior sister beside him.
Mr. Jing also smiled slightly and accepted it happily.
But at this moment, suddenly!
A group of dirty boys who looked like homeless people poured onto the street from the alley, about a dozen of them.
They gathered around Su Lun and kept shouting.
"Sir, sir, okay, we haven't eaten in a few days!"
"Sir, please give me a few coins."
""
Su Lun was a member of the Cross Society in Old Town, and was used to seeing poor people at the bottom of the society who did not have enough to eat.
Originally, he didn't mind giving out some charity as much as he could, but suddenly, these wanderers dispersed in droves.
As soon as the people dispersed, Mr. Jing said calmly: "My handbag was robbed."
She was holding a decorative handbag in her hand, which was indeed valuable.
But it's obviously not about money.
Su Lun had actually discovered the malicious intent a long time ago, but this was a crowded street, so he couldn't kill all the guys just now.
After taking a quick look, I saw that the guy who stole the bag was running very fast and looked like a professional assassin.
At this time, the little flower seller said weakly: "Sir, be careful, they are professional thieves from the 'Sea Serpent Gang'!"
After saying that, he ran away quickly, as if he was afraid of getting into trouble.
Su Lun raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Haha, gangster?"
The security team member in the distance clearly saw it but didn't care. He understood what kind of "sea snake gang" this was and was a local snake.
He used to be a gangster in the Cross Society, so he was naturally familiar with this situation.
Thinking about it, Su Lun said: "Someone should be targeting us."
Mr. Jing affirmed: "Well, you came for me. The thief probably wanted to lure you into the alley."
Su Lun: "Let's go and have a look?"
Mr. Mirror nodded.
The conversation between the two was very calm.
In fact, Su Lun had guessed that such a situation would happen before.
The beauty of my senior sister will attract the covetous attention of some young girls.
In the dungeon before, she had to hide the fact that she was a professional. But now she lacked full aura, and her cold charm was as dazzling as a halo.
Moreover, as her strength recovered, her queen-like aura became stronger and stronger.
Mr. Jing had the ability to change his appearance, but Su Lun didn't ask why he used his real appearance, but he could probably guess that it was the "qi" she cultivated.
Su Lun didn't know what kind of "qi" Mr. Jing had, but he could feel that underneath her seemingly gentle appearance, she had a domineering, condescending, and righteous aura in her bones.
She has the strength to overcome all injustices
Mr. Jing's character is that of an ordinary rich lady, and Su Lun cannot leave her alone with 100 million people, waiting for someone to kidnap her.
The two exchanged a few words and then walked nonchalantly toward the alley where the thief had escaped.
On the other hand, in the dark alley where the sun doesn't shine in, seven or eight gangsters armed with muskets and swords were already waiting.
The leader is a black-faced man with a scar on his face, named Polit. He is the small leader of the Sea Serpent Gang, nicknamed "Viper", he is ruthless and murderous. Among the gangsters in the city of Kadurante
, can also be considered a good player.
The thief who snatched the bag was also inside, playing with the bag in his hand. "Boss, those two foreigners are really rich. The gems on this bag are probably worth more than 100,000 yuan. It seems that
She is really a young lady from a rich family. Could it be that they don’t care and don’t come after her?”
Before he finished speaking, suddenly, the little brother who reported the news came.
"Boss, people are here! Both of them are here!"
"Haha, this saves us the time of going to the street to intercept people."
"Boss, is there a problem? Those two guys look very calm."
"What's the problem? A rich lady and a teacher who are traveling here? Haha, they are just young children who have never seen the evil in society. Maybe they are here to reason with us? Hahahaha"
"Boss, didn't Captain Burns say that the man is a second-level professional and asked us to be careful?"
"He is the second level, but I am not the second level? It's okay to know the appearance, but if you don't, I will cut off his head!"
""
A few people were still muttering something, but at this time, two people had appeared in the alley.
The figure Su Lun was looking at flashed, and the three assassins cut off their escape route.
They are all assassin-type professionals, but they are not very fast and probably have a "blank slate" type of equipment to advance, so their attributes are very poor, worse than the gangster assassins in the outer city of Old Town.
The spiritual power in the ground world is abundant and much gentler than the "dark spiritual power", and there is almost no "distortion".
Then there are the "whiteboard" materials that require extremely low level requirements, which can be advanced by almost an individual.
Such as the ones in front of you.
Seven or eight guns were pointed at Su Lun's head at the same time.
However, there was no trace of panic on his face and he asked: "Who ordered you to come?"
"Viper" Polite was stunned when he heard this. Before they even opened their mouths, the other party actually guessed their purpose?
He vaguely felt that something was wrong, but it was not false, so he asked: "Who the hell are you?"
Su Lun shook his head slightly as he listened. This way of communication was obviously wrong.
He suddenly said to those gangsters: "Look at the shape of my mouth."
The eight gangsters from the Sea Serpent Gang were stunned when they heard this incomprehensible words.
The next second, Su Lun clapped his hands.
No,
Not one shot!
Instead, he formed the Warlock Seal in an extremely fast way.
He groaned softly: "Secret method of silk control·Slaughterhouse!"
Without giving them any time to react, a few crystal blue threads suddenly solidified in the air. The threads embodying the third-order wind element law were like sharp blades, cutting through the people very smoothly.
's neck.
Blood lines appeared, and before the frightened expressions appeared on each face, suddenly the head fell off and blood gushed out like a fountain.
Six headless corpses lay limp on the ground at the same time.
The only guy still standing in the field was "The Viper" Pollitt.
His movements holding the dagger froze in the air.
Seeing his younger brothers' heads suddenly being cut off, he realized what a terrifying existence he had offended!
As if falling into an ice cave, his face, which had been arrogant just now, suddenly turned pale.
But he didn't dare to make any rash move.
Because, he clearly felt that the sharp thread was attached to his neck. It was a feeling of despair that made him, a professional assassin, not sure of his escape at all!
Death is right between this line
Su Lun also guessed where this guy's confidence came from.
Probably because he felt that he was also a second-level person and had a numerical advantage, so there was no need to be afraid.
But Su Lun wanted to say in his heart,
Although everyone is second level, my second level is different from your second level.
Obviously, this is the correct way to have a conversation.
Su Lun asked again: "Who sent you here."
This time, Pollitt replied without hesitation: "Captain Burns asked us to come!"
"Who is Pence?"
"The captain of the guard who entered the city has a brother-in-law who is a knight of the Earl's family! He has a very good relationship with the young master of the Earl's family. My boss also has a very good relationship with the nobles in the city. You can't kill me."
""
Su Lun got the news he wanted and didn't want to listen to this guy's nagging, so he just wanted to take action.
"etc."
But at this time, Mr. Mirror reached out and took out a bone necklace that Polite was wearing around his neck.
[Blessed Mammoth Talisman]
Detailed explanation: Cold-repelling amulet carved from mammoth ivory;
Su Lun took a closer look and discovered that the bone necklace was engraved with complex totems, and the center of the totem turned out to be a special heraldic pattern.
This pattern is actually the family crest of the Isaac family?
Su Lun immediately realized that this necklace had some connection with Mr. Jing's family.
Mr. Jing asked coldly: "Where did this necklace come from?"
Polit was already frightened and said, "This was taken from a new batch of demi-human slaves who entered Hong Kong before."
Mr. Jing asked again: "Where are those slaves now?"
Pollitt: "In the hands of Ruskin, the great slave trader."
Mr. Jing didn’t ask any more questions.
When the voice fell, the head fell to the ground.
Su Lun peeled off the soul fragments of several people and obtained some information that was not too valuable.
Fortunately, the storage space was large enough, so he put the body away as well.
No body was found, and the murder case was dismissed.
Su Lun knew that after killing several people, there would probably be sequels to this matter.
Even if not
Su Lun also plans to find that "Captain Burns" to continue.
