Arcane Lord

Chapter 288

Because of their existence, Linton City has won many trade wars, but it has not been able to completely eradicate hidden dangers. It is forced to watch its opponents regain strength again and again. Initiating challenges again and again is a vicious circle.

While walking slowly along the street, Andre quietly collected information. Unconsciously, he came to the backstreet near the slums. When he was a little stunned, he suddenly realized that it was similar to more than a month ago. Than, completely changed into another look.

The original stinking river was cleaned up, and the dilapidated wood houses on both sides were also renewed and changed into various service places and shops. Hooligans put on uniform uniforms , Keep patrolling around.

The barely dressed street girls also disappeared, replaced by a large number of alluring billboards, and the passersby gradually became more and more, and even occasionally there were a few cars with noble badges. After passing by, everything looks no different from other streets. Newcomers will never think that this is the back street once known as the most chaotic, darkest, and most regardless of the law and of natural morality.

Obviously, Widowmaker Bonnie has carried out extensive renovations to this area in accordance with the plan discussed in advance, and even the little thieves who used to be in the streets have disappeared.

Looking at what the whole street looks like at this moment, Andre took a deep breath and murmured: “Humans… are really creatures with unlimited potential. They can be so short. To complete such a huge amount of work in time, maybe it won’t take long before this place will become the most prosperous place in the city…”

tone barely fell, he suddenly discovered that there were seven squatting in the alley not far away. Eight little children in patched clothes, each holding a tray, the plate contains a fried fish, a large spoonful of mashed potatoes, a few fatty and greasy unknown pieces of meat, and a large piece of black bread , A small pile of vegetables, stuffed into the mouth like no one.

Even though the food is very rough and simple, the portion is very generous. They are as if they have eaten the delicious Supreme, and each of them has a satisfied expression. Among them, a thin boy looks very familiar. As if seen somewhere.

Slightly recalled, Andre quickly remembered, isn’t the other person the one who ran to inform him last time, it should be called Benson…

At the same time , The boy seemed to recognize him, hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth, stood up and asked in surprise: “Ah! Master? Is it… is it you?”

“Oh? Can you recognize Come out of me!” An incredible expression appeared on Andre’s face.

He is now wearing a hood, and his entire face is hidden. The sapphire badge originally worn on his chest has also been replaced with a pearl and ruby ​​badge. There is no obvious mark on the whole body. It can be recognized in this way, there is no reason for it.

Benson opened his mouth and smiled and explained: “Of course I can recognize it!

First of all, this robe on you, it will reflect a little under the sun. Maybe an ordinary person would not notice it, but I think a veteran like me who strays in the streets can tell at a glance.

Secondly, your taste is different from others, neither is the strong fragrance of nobles. , And it’s not like an ordinary person always has a sour smell.

The last thing is the habit of walking. There is almost no deviation in the distance of each step when you walk. I have been training for thieves recently, and I understand that it means What.”

“Fine observation, keen sense of smell, and excellent memory. It seems that you are really not simple. You can analyze so much information in just a few seconds.” Andre smiled and exclaimed.

He completely didn’t expect, a trifling, a small pickpocket who lives at the bottom of the society. He also has such excellent qualities. He is simply a natural intelligence-gathering player. The chess pieces he laid out finally started to work.

Benson scratched his head somewhat sorryly: “You’re overwhelmed, Mr. Master. I’m just a little bit better than ordinary thief with eyesight, knowing who is pretending, who can’t afford to offend , Otherwise the boss will not promote me to be the leader of all thieves.”

“Hehe, knowing people is also a talent, even more how, in my opinion, you still have a lot of room for development, otherwise Bonnie may also let you participate in thieves training. Do you have time? Take me around, I just want to have an understanding of the current situation in the backstreet.” After speaking, Andre turned around and glanced at it, which is familiar. A strange street.

“No problem, it’s my honor to be able to serve you.” Benson bowed quickly, and shared the unfinished food on the plate among other children, and trot all the way to the front.

Andre noticed that those young pickpockets did not dislike the poorly sold leftovers at all, and they were all sorted out in no time.

Obviously, from this alone, we can see that their previous living conditions were very bad. Maybe they didn’t even have enough to eat, and they could only survive in poverty and hunger every day.

Of course, it’s not much better now, but at least the worn clothes are enough to cover your body. Although lunch is still simple and rough, it can definitely fill your stomach, except that there is still no pair of shoes under your feet, everyone looks Still healthy.

I have to say that this is a huge improvement. You must know that more than a month ago, the living environment of the residents in Backstreet was almost like hell. At this moment, another scene has appeared. Thanks to the integration of gang forces, violence in the streets has been reduced a lot.

After all, the Hooligans may not be afraid of being put into jail by the soldiers on patrol, and they are definitely afraid of the rules set by the gang.

Because the former is beaten up and shut down for a few days at most, it has nothing to do with the same, while the latter is severed from severed hands and feet, and in severe cases the body is sunk directly into the sea, which may involve family and friends, so You must think twice before acting.

Aimless walking along the street, Benson pointed to the buildings on both sides while walking while introduced: “Look, this is a newly opened tavern. On the surface, it sells low-quality drinks, but secretly. This is the place where smugglers conduct transactions. We provide them with a secret warehouse located in the sewer, and they give us 15% of the profit for each successful transaction.

2 over there The Little House in Layer is a skinny business. Widowmaker Boss gathered the Orioles on the street to freshen up and make them dressed as aristocrats Young Lady, female pirate, Dame, priest, Princess, queen, many wealthy nobles and Businessmen like to come here for excitement. It is said that they can earn one or two hundred Gold Coins in a day.

As for the original Gigi Aber’s nest, it has been transformed into a large entertainment venue. The basement is a casino and In the Colosseum, the ground floor is a bar and a place for singing and dancing. The second floor is half a restaurant, and the other half is a guest room. Especially the arena is overcrowded with battles and beasts. Tickets alone are a lot of money. even more how there is a tap to bet and gamble……”
