In the dark passage, there are faint lights and shadows flickering.
Two silver-white figures were floating at high speed. They were Muyin people, born glass people and travelers from foreign lands. Now, they are just the remnants of the dead people running away in confusion.
".Betrayer. Contract"
"Retribution. Error"
The flickering silver light is their way of exchanging information. Even at the end of the road, they are still full of tangles.
Different from the information they reported to the outside world before, they are not just travelers in the astral world, but also rootless duckweeds. Their planet and world completely sank into the abyss more than ten centuries ago.
They are like the gypsies in the star world, they have long lost their hometown, and before everything becomes irreversible, they really try to make this peaceful world their home.
They arrived not long ago and did not bring enough wealth. By this time, the Muyin people were unable to meet the increasing demands of the greedy lords.
"Betrayal. We are betrayed"
"Lord. Revenge"
Sometimes there is always a gap between the truth and reality. The information obtained by Lu Ping'an and his party, as well as what the knights know, may not be the truth. At least, not the whole truth.
The Muyin people did attack the Knights and took away some precious materials, as well as the truth-level item, but the first ones to attack were the assassins under the lord.
It wasn't just the outside bandits who stared at the map in the hands of the Muyin people. But there was a reason why the lord lost patience with them.
".Poor confused ones. Ignorant betrayal"
The accelerated exchange of information revealed the truth. Even at this moment, the Muyin people still didn't know why they were met with such a level of hostility.
They set up glass and cement workshops, used the money they earned to relieve the poor and wounded soldiers, and also improved the local water supply system. At least at that time, the lords liked them very much. Who doesn't like a big taxpayer, but they still help alleviate the problem.
Social conflicts increase happiness index.
But in the eyes of the lords, the last thing they should do is "tell the truth."
"The end is coming. The seven plagues of the sun"
They have their own information channels and take the initiative to spread the news that "the end is coming". At least two-thirds of the doomsday believers in that area are more or less related to them.
Without their "endorsement", the "doomsday believers" within the Knights would not have spread so quickly.
Obviously, this shook the foundation of the stability of the entire territory. After it was determined that they were the source of spreading all this, everything was irreversible.
There is no right or wrong in this matter, not even good or evil.
Is it wrong for the lord to want social stability and to not give hope to those in desperate situations? Do they really want to experience a human tragedy before the world collapses? In his opinion, he is also trying to find a way out if he can save it.
Of course he would not refuse the people.
As for the Muyin people, they couldn't find any hope. The foreign road they took was certainly inaccessible to ordinary people, but at least they thought that even those who died had the right to know the truth (understand death).
Neither party felt that they were at fault, and even felt that they had been betrayed by the other party, which can only be said to be quite subtle.
But now, the unlucky Muyinren has been betrayed again.
"Evil bones deserve to die"
Due to lack of manpower, they cooperated with another local force, and now, those who are chasing them are their original partners.
"They are in front, tsk, the only glass man left behind is dead, but they are still running pretty fast."
The bound black vicious dogs were sniffing wildly in the passage. They were surrounded by ripples like black shadows. After confirming that the path in front of them was correct, "Evil Bones" directly reached out and returned them to the shadows.
If you only look at his appearance, no one would think that he is a super thief who has been in Yokohama for twenty years.
With a handsome face that is too young and even a little young, a robe with a medicinal smell, and a book in his hand for a long time, he seems to be a school student full of scholarly atmosphere.
But now, hundreds of bandits have gathered under his command.
Of course they are not here for vacation. The only things that can make these bandits fight are huge profits or their own lives.
"Boss Evil Bones, are you sure those glass monsters really have the 'compass' we want?"
Traveling to foreign lands without using a star ship is an extremely difficult and dangerous thing, and what is even more troublesome is the reality of darkness when you open your eyes. If you are lost in the sea, at least the body may be found by rescuers, but there is still a chance
The day when I return to my hometown.
But if you are lost in the multiverse, a natural disaster or an apocalyptic world may bring an end to it.
The greatest wealth of Muyin people is not that they say "we can take you to a safe world", but the reality that "they come from other worlds".
They have coordinates of other worlds, and even special props that guide the coordinates. This is the so-called "compass". It is similar to a directional artifact that always points to a specific world in an infinite maze.
Perhaps, it is extremely unreliable and extremely unstable, and will lead to a dead end if you are not careful, but it is much safer than forcibly crossing countless voids.
It can be said that with the compass, there is a road to the outside world. After all, the teleportation void of infinite space is always changing.
The Muyin people couldn't understand that they had agreed to share the compass with "Evil Bones" and provide guidance on the road. If they had experienced travelers like themselves as guides, the journey would be much safer.
They would cooperate with Evil Bones because they were indeed the best choice besides the local lords. But judging from the results, they were betrayed again.
"Oh, that compass was requested by the big boss of the Holy City. Don't damage it. Those stupid glass people don't even know the value of the treasure in their hands."
A compass may represent an unknown new world, and Muyin people may have experienced many areas along the way.
Perhaps, this is not a safe passage, let alone a stable trade route. But for some big shots, it is just a matter of spending two yuan to buy a lottery ticket and have a scratch-off.
A boat ticket? Or more. Anyway, it is impossible to satisfy the hundreds of people in the Evil Bone Gang. At least these facts, how can those younger brothers understand.
They only know that their boss is a wise man and has once again succeeded in eating and drinking, and now everyone is still looking for a way out.
"Boss, those monsters are coming."
Hearing this, Evil Bones frowned and sped up.
It wasn't just me and my group who were eyeing the glass men and the things in their hands. Those bandits from the outside world got the news from somewhere and joined the hunt.
"Go, be fast, and leave as soon as you get something, those black monsters"
At the same time, Lu Ping'an and his party also entered the periphery of the ruins, but there was some information that needed to be communicated with colleagues first.
What is placed in front of the team is the corpse of the so-called "Red Sand Thief" from another world.
They were dark-skinned, tall and strong. Well, let's be honest, this was the body of a black man.
“I really didn’t expect that I would meet ‘fellow human beings’ here and still force myself to buy something for zero yuan.”
Perhaps, in the eyes of the locals, Lu Ping'an and those dark-skinned sand bandits with red scarves are not the same species at all. They are face-blind and recognize colors.
