Divine Tribulation of the Star Civilization - Chapter Extra 40. City of Tomorrow (6) . (Part 1)

[Extra 40. City of Tomorrow (6) 1/2]

The distance between the guard leader and the bald brother Lao Bai on the opposite side invisibly got closer and closer, and finally their heads were almost touching, as if they were whispering and discussing something.

Because she was too far away, Joyner couldn’t hear the other party’s conversation at all, but she could vaguely feel that Lao Bai was talking about herself.

She didn’t dare to relax for a moment and stared at those people intently. She quietly wrapped layers of bandages on her hands, calmly touched her calf and pulled out the fanged dagger.

She had previously installed a dagger handle on this powerful weapon to make it easier to use.

At this time, she suddenly heard the bald brother Lao Bai burst into laughter, and then hammered the opponent’s chest, while the leader of the guards on the opposite side stretched out his thick arms and hugged the bald brother’s neck.

The two of them actually put their arms around each other, waving their other hands from time to time, talking and laughing as they walked toward the tent at the rear.

“What’s going on?” Joyner was stunned.

Isn’t the most important thing now to convince the other party to let the team go? Why did they walk away talking and laughing and not caring about this place?

Joyner’s nerves were tense instantly, and she had a vague feeling of bad premonition.

What she was worried about soon happened. The other guards did not follow and left, but all looked at her. I saw six or seven strong men walking towards me with fierce faces and heads held high. Some of them even took out weapons from their bodies!

“Hey! Everyone in the car, please get out of the car. You can’t enter the city today.” A thug shouted in the direction.

What? ! Can’t get in?

Joyner’s heart suddenly trembled. What are these guys doing?

She hesitated for a while, put the snake-tooth dagger back, and decided to get out of the car first to see the situation. At this time, several people from the other party had come closer and surrounded her.

“Why can’t we get in today?” Joyner jumped out of the car and walked towards the group of people, her eyes blazing and she asked in a low voice.

Seeing Joyner’s dirty, thin body and a shabby cloak that looked like a beggar, the guards all laughed.

The laughter was full of ridicule, and Joyner immediately felt insulted.

“Why? There is no reason!”

A fat man with a huge cooked leather shoulder armor slung across his upper body took a step forward, shook his head, looked at Joyner carefully, and said coldly, “This is an order from above!

” The guy has a fat head, big ears, and a sinister face. I wonder if he ate too many insect cakes. He is probably twice as heavy as Joyner, so he should be a little boss.

An order from above?

Joyner’s heart moved, and she immediately thought of Lao Bai’s strange look when he left.

“Old Bai told me before that we can enter the city later. Did he tell you to say that?”

“Old Bai?” The fat man looked at the people on both sides and said with a dry smile, “Ha-this place is not Lao Bai has the final say, and he is not our leader. Who has the right to give us orders?”

“Whose order is that?”

Joyner’s face darkened when she heard this.

“All the slaves in the car are also getting off. This car is now under our custody.” The fat man did not answer her directly, but shouted loudly.

Seizure?

Something’s wrong!

Something is wrong!

Joyner felt that Lao Bai had betrayed her, and Fatty obviously said this on purpose. Her arms dropped to her sides, weapon ready at a moment’s notice.

Although she had had a premonition before, she still felt that even if she took action, she would have to wait until she entered the Hidden Sand Castle, but she did not expect that the change would come so soon.

“Wait a minute!”

Seeing that a thug was about to open the car door, Joyner stopped him with a quick step and shouted sternly.

“What, are you going to resist us?” The fat man scratched the fat on his chin with one hand and winked at the same time. The thug stopped.

“This isn’t your first time here, is it?”

Joyner said nothing, with murderous intent hidden in her eyes.

“Hey! What a terrifying look…”

Seeing Joyner’s look, the fat man took an exaggerated step back and said sullenly, “This is the traditional rule of Hidden Sand Castle. People who come here for the first time must You must be quarantined and inspected first to make sure you are not infected with wild diseases before entering the city. You are not allowed to enter and leave at will with a car of slaves! “

Slaves must be quarantined and inspected…?

Joyner had long heard about the many cruel rules of Hidden Sand Castle. For example, slavery was legal here, and its legality was guaranteed by the powerful force of the defenders.

Slaves entering the city must be bought and sold legally, and escaped slaves will be hunted down, and those caught will be severely punished. Men would have their limbs mutilated or tortured to death, while women would be handed over to the men in the settlements like animals to do as they pleased.

In order to maintain the authority of the system, within the Hidden Sand Castle’s sphere of influence covering a hundred miles radius, hunter troops will be sent to hunt down slaves who have escaped from each settlement. Even if they are not caught, slaves who are hiding in various villages and preparing to escape will have difficulty escaping from this area on foot without any means of transportation.

The surroundings are either bare mountains or boundless wilderness, and to the southwest is a large swamp and vast water area. No matter which direction you go, there are harsh environments and many deadly mutant creatures waiting to kill these humans.

Joyner looked at the other party coldly and remained silent. At this distance, with her skills, she can knock down these guys in front of her at any time.

But after thinking for a moment, she finally chose to compromise and asked, “Then when can we enter the city?”

“Maybe tomorrow, maybe ten days and a half, who knows…” The fat man glanced at the others. , said casually.

“You should know that I am Brother Hui’s subordinate, right?”

“Ah, Brother Hui? Hahaha, Lai Touhui, right?” The fat man sneered, suddenly raised his voice, and said fiercely, “That maggot hasn’t been here yet?” Are you going to die? I think you are no different from those idiots who pick up trash, right? The fate of trash is the same anyway

.

Joyner’s pupils shrank, and it seemed that there was no room for discussion.

She walked straight up to the fat man, grabbed his arm suddenly, twisted it slightly, and heard the sound of bones breaking.

“Wow…” The fat man knelt down in pain, his face extremely distorted.

“Get in the car!” Joyner ordered coldly.

She wasn’t even in the mood to talk to this kind of rubbish.

Everyone was stunned by the sudden change. They were stunned for a long time before pulling out their weapons in horror. Several black crossbow arrows were aimed at Joyner.

But with the fat man in her hands, these people didn’t dare to take action casually.

“You are looking for death. How dare you offend us…ah!”

A scream!
