Divine Tribulation of the Star Civilization - Chapter Extra 55. Stranger (3)

[Extra 55. Stranger (3)]

This deal seemed to Joyner to be a very good deal, and she was eager to obtain a large amount of material foundation.

Joyner realized that even in such a chaotic era, human social order still maintains some invisible constraints – such as money.

It is the same in any era, whether it is an era of material abundance or material scarcity.

Consumerism is always one of the means to ensure the distribution of materials, but basic consumption is completely unable to satisfy the vanity of those who claim to be superior.

Therefore, consuming the products of other people’s labor is sublimated by them into a means with a greater sense of glory and symbolic meaning.

Money can not only represent a person’s identity value, but also represent the social status that person possesses. Therefore, the things bought with money are the easiest to satisfy people. Money turns into jewelry, fine clothes, big gold teeth in the mouth, and completely unnecessary luxuries, adorning those worldly people who love vanity like stitch monsters. on the person.

Joyner certainly knows this feeling.

Because she has already seen clearly the social structure of this era and the disparity in status and class between people, which are the essence of the laws of social operation.

This apocalyptic world is no different from the previous human world. Everyone still thinks the same and does the same things.

She didn’t know whether to be happy or sad about this.

No one cares where your money comes from or if it’s stained with other people’s blood. People only care about whether you have money and how much you have. With this large amount of money, Joyner can do a lot of things, so she feels very relieved now.

But before that, Joyner kept telling herself that she must act more cautiously.

While Joyner was thinking happily, she found that the corner of her cloak moved slightly. Looking down, it turned out that it was Harris who reached out and tugged on her skirt.

“Why, you…”

Seeing Harris’ slightly wary eyes, Joyner realized something.

She suddenly raised her head, and sure enough, she saw several fierce-looking people pushing each other, swearing, emerging from the corner of the street, and walking towards them along the stone road.

“It’s not good!”

When she saw the clothes of those people, the machetes and axes on their waists, and the aura of “Keep strangers out” from their bodies, Joyner’s heart suddenly tightened.

The tattoos on these four people and the gang marks on their chests are conspicuous, showing that they are members of a large gang, and they are probably the subordinates of the Xuan Ming Gang.

After meeting each other on a narrow road, Joyner felt that these people came with bad intentions, and they were definitely coming for her.

She clenched her fists subconsciously.

Joyner’s feeling was very accurate. These four people came to search this area under direct orders from Li Renxuan, the leader of the Xuan Gang. In addition to them, four groups of people will also arrive later.

This is a blanket search. The purpose of the gangsters is to find out the whereabouts of the assassin who broke into the city last night.

A few hours ago, under the personal command of Li Renxuan, almost all members of the Xuan Gang were mobilized, and no one dared to be passive or complain at all.

After all, this operation was of great importance. More than a dozen of the brothers who were guarding the city died. This was an unprecedented thing in the more than ten years since the Xuanming and Ming gangs settled in Hidden Sand Castle. It was an extremely serious provocation.

⒏ьＯоk. СΟмSo

the order given to the gang members was: Even if they dig three feet into the ground, they must find the assassin’s whereabouts. They would rather kill three thousand people by mistake than let one go. If anyone here refuses to cooperate, or knows the whereabouts of the assassin but fails to report it, he will be regarded as an accomplice of the assassin, and will be arrested and thrown into a fetid dungeon, tortured and even worse than death.

What’s more, if they encounter someone who stubbornly resists, they can kill them on the spot without authorization to serve as a warning to others.

That’s not all. If there is a punishment, there will be a reward. Anyone who discovers clues about the assassin will receive generous rewards. Those who are not gang members can join the gang as an exception; and those who are already gang members can be immediately promoted to gang leaders, promoted and made rich, and rise to the top in one step.

Those gang members are extremely vicious people. When their atrocities are protected or even encouraged by the law, even if there is no reward, it will lead to an extremely terrible disaster.

What’s more, this is a “rewardable” purge operation. Driven by interests and instincts, the gangs and thugs showed their ferocity, and their cruelty began to be unleashed unscrupulously in the Hidden Sand Castle.

But now, these thugs are not happy at all, because the area they are responsible for investigating is a wealthy area.

In Hidden Sand Castle, everyone knows what the words “rich area” really mean.

The luxury here is not something that ordinary people can have: the gardens on the upper floors are filled with flowers transported from all over the place, surrounded by colorful colors and wonderful fragrances. Groups of tall houses are decorated with exquisitely carved jade, made by human hands and ending in human places. Cool water gurgls from the vast courtyard and runs day and night along specially built elevated channels.

Pingminshan, which is across the street, is like hell.

The power of these rich people is no less than that of the so-called gangs. Their fortune history basically has a dirty past. Their wealth is all obtained from killings and pools of blood.

Not only are these people rich and powerful, but they are also allowed to support their gesture skills. These people are called bodyguards. In fact, their vicious and vicious methods are no worse than those of gang members. Moreover, most of the wealthy people here have connections with other gangs or the Xuan Ming Gang. Some families are even relatives and friends of gang members.

The rich all naively believe that they have enviable huge resources and connections, and as long as Hidden Sand Castle lasts, the blessings here will never end.

Several thugs were discussing how to find out information in this wealthy area. They knew the consequences of being arrogant here. Although this place was also within the scope of the search, they were still somewhat unsure.

At this moment, Joyner was immersed in a dilemma. She recognized what the marks on their bodies represented, and couldn’t help but hesitate in her steps.

what to do?

no way.

Joyner must not reveal her identity, nor can she just kill these people. Because it was broad daylight on the street, and there was Harris behind her. So she could only bite the bullet and take risks to see if she could get through.

In order not to attract attention, Joyner pulled her hood down and continued to move forward with cautious and casual steps.

“I’ve got you, don’t run away!”

At this time, two well-dressed children were chasing and quarreling all the way, running from the corner of the street with laughter and panting.

The slightly older little girl ran in front and looked back from time to time. She didn’t notice the big man in front of her at all. She bumped into him, but she was ejected and lay flat on the ground.

“Yes… I’m sorry, I didn’t see you just now.” She looked up and said as if she was about to cry.
