MTL - Another World Sandbox Gamer-Chapter 17 slum
Before crossing, Ren had never seen a slum.
But he has learned about this place from many film and television works and even animation.
The slums are all struggling on the brink of death, at the lowest end of the class, sometimes doing anything to survive, a relatively chaotic group.
In addition to the description of the car dealer just now, it is natural to be cautious.
All he had to do was find a poor car dealership as soon as possible, rent a car willing to go to the monster forest, and leave as soon as possible.
Although I was mentally prepared for the chaos of the slum, I didn't expect that as soon as I arrived in the east of the city and stepped into this area, I found someone sneaking behind me.
When these poor people saw unfamiliar faces, their eyes gathered, and there was a lack of kindness in their eyes.
Ren ignored the people who followed him furtively for the time being.
Unexpectedly, after walking for a while, the man suddenly increased his speed and wanted to ram him.
The other party is just an ordinary person, or a thin and weak person who lacks nutrition and is estimated to often starve. With Ren's agility attributes far exceeding ordinary people, of course he will not get his wish.
Just as the opponent approached, Ren suddenly turned around, grabbed his arm with lightning speed, and twisted the situation to force him to kneel on the ground.
This man obviously wanted to steal the purse hanging from Ren's waist, but he just found the wrong target.
Ren twisted his hand to hold him, and the other party screamed in pain, shouting loudly, "I've hit someone! Help!"
Ren looked around and found that the poor people who saw the whole process on the side of the road were numb and didn't respond to it. He was probably used to it.
On the contrary, there were a lot of people with bad expressions appearing from the vicinity and gradually surrounded them. They should be the accomplices of the thief.
I didn't expect that I would encounter trouble as soon as I entered the slum, but fortunately, the people surrounding me were all skinny poor people, and there was basically no threat.
The thief's accomplice, eleven in total, surrounded Ren.
The opponent took the initiative to attack and swarmed up.
Ren hurriedly let go of the thief, and with his extremely fast speed and strength far beyond ordinary people, he launched a counterattack without hesitation.
In his opinion, the opponent's attack was pitifully slow, not worth mentioning at all, and he could easily avoid it every time, and then grabbed the person and threw it away with force.
After a melee, all twelve people, including the thief, were beaten and fell to the ground crying.
Teams like them bully ordinary people, and they are not opponents at all when confronted with more ruthless characters.
How effective is a person who has been starving for a long time and has a weak body?
Ren beat the group to the ground, and a guard came. After inquiring about the situation, they took them all away, and warned Ren to walk in the slum to pay attention to safety.
Ren suspected that these guards appeared very early, and they deliberately waited until the end of the battle to intervene, otherwise it would not be so coincidental that they appeared just after the battle.
It is even suspected that after these poor people are caught, they will be released soon.
Of course, he didn't care that much.
It is indeed very convenient to have an adventurer's identity. The guards did not take him away as a brawler, but warned him to turn around and leave.
Ren continued to search, and finally came to a square where various carriages were parked.
There are no luxury carriages here, most of them are tattered slabs, and there are also some ordinary carriages that look very old and have been replaced by a few hands.
The side of the carriage was surrounded by frail poor people. When he saw Ren who appeared here, he immediately surrounded him like a swarm and invited him to take the carriage.
After all, there is no other way to come here than to rent a carriage.
Many coachmen looked ferocious, and kept looking at Ren's clothes, focusing on his purse.
Of course Ren would not choose such a person. Although with his current physical fitness, it is easy to deal with the poor when he is prepared, but he does not want to have an accident on the road.
As an exile, I finally came to Storm City, and I didn't want to be driven out or even serve another sentence for killing a poor coachman. Even if the other party is a poor man, even if he is fighting back, Storm City officials may not necessarily favor him when making judgments between the local poor and foreign exiles.
So Ren carefully screened and picked a little boy about his age. Seeing that his eyes are still clear, he is young and won't have the complicated thoughts of other poor coachmen, and then the carriage has a roof, which barely meets the requirements.
After he selected the little boy, the surrounding coachmen dispersed in disappointment.
The boy was very happy and said to Ren: "Brother, you are very discerning! It is absolutely safe to ride in my car, and the fee is cheap. My name is Adam, how about you?"
"Ren!"
"Ren, let's go!" Adam took him to the carriage.
"Aren't you asking where I'm going?" Ren got on the dilapidated carriage and asked him back.
"You can go anywhere!" Adam laughed, "I don't pick jobs. So where do you want to go?"
"Beast Forest!" Ren sat in the carriage.
"Then I can only take you to the outskirts of the forest," Adam was not surprised. "It will take you less than two days to arrive. You will be charged 3 silver coins a day, six in total. The end point is the gray forest trail."
"Six silver coins? It's more expensive than a regular car dealership."
"Because the roads are more dangerous, regular car dealers won't take risks!" Adam replied, "Most adventurers who go to the Warcraft Forest will rent a horse-drawn carriage here at the same price."
"Okay! Six are six, hurry up!" Ren said, UU reading www. uukanshu.com "First go to Alma's restaurant in the northern city, I have a mission. Then there is Pila's farm outside the city. After completing these two missions, go directly to the monster forest."
"No problem! I'm familiar with Alma's restaurant and Pila's farm." Adam also got into the carriage and sat down, pulling the reins with his left hand and whipping the whip with his right, and steered the carriage away.
The carriage left the poor car dealership and ran along the road under those vicious eyes.
Leaving the ghetto smoothly, Adam quickly took Ren to Alma Restaurant.
After getting out of the car and explaining his intention to the restaurant owner, Alma, the other party immediately took him to the warehouse: "Your job is to help me organize the warehouse, and it must be completed before the sun goes down. By the way, help me clean it up, and you will be paid only after passing the inspection! If the result is unsatisfactory, I will complain to the Adventurer's Association, let's do it! Don't let me down."
Ren walked into the warehouse and found that all kinds of cargo boxes were piled up in a mess, and the ground was also dirty. It was estimated that it had not been cleaned for a month or two.
Ordinary people do need an afternoon or more to clear the warehouse, but it is very simple for him.
First, go forward and put these cargo boxes into the virtual backpack and carry them directly outside.
Then recycle all the garbage in the warehouse and put it in the virtual backpack. After coming out, put it in the open space, and then move the cargo box back and code it in order. It is very easy to make the dirty warehouse clean and tidy through the virtual backpack.
It took more than ten minutes in total, and after the solution was settled, Alma, the restaurant owner, was invited.
Alma didn't believe it. No one could finish cleaning in such a short period of time. After checking in person, her eyes widened and it was incomprehensible.
Ren's work made him very satisfied. Although he didn't understand how the other party did it, he still paid 1 silver coin for the task bounty on the spot.
The salary of 100 yuan is actually quite high.
