Chapter 446

Lin Jie passed through the half-opened tunnel of Dark Night Village, which is currently the only tunnel leading to the lower city.

He can turn into a dragon shape at will, but still maintains his human form. Through the temporary elevator, the elevator makes a terrifying sound, and only the infinitely upward black rock formation can be seen in the small and confined space.

Lin Jie stepped out of the elevator and walked in the underground corridor.

As a human being, the feeling here is very bad, and I can feel many smells familiar to Lin Jie, and these smells are very similar to the source of my own strength.

Lin Jie squinted his eyes slightly, and could see the gray mist drifting across the entire lower city.

Although the downtown area was terrible, it was only at this time that Lin Jie felt a little bit of the feeling of stepping on the ground.

The entire upper city is a steel machine erected in the lower city, and all the organs are built on the blood and tears of the lower city.

If the entire upper city is a running steam train, then the lower city is a burning coal stove.

The resource is coal, but it is a pity that it is ignited by humans.

Lin Jie hid his own form and passed through this secret passage. He thought that he would be able to get out of this tunnel for a moment, but gradually found that he could not leave this tunnel.

Because the entire downtown area is in this tunnel.

This is a world composed of dark and staggered mine tunnels. The wet and muddy ground can splash muddy water every step of the way. Surrounded by walls that are constantly seeping and covered with moss, there is always no light, no trace of green and sunlight.

Going a little further, you can see dilapidated tents and beds, stone buildings built in the middle of the mine, and the underground temperature difference is not that big, so all of them only have a single dormitory, and each of them only has one black robe to wear .

Lin Jie gathered his black robe, and then showed his figure, but unfortunately, no one would care.

Residents with stooped bodies and walking corpses holding mining picks and tools, clanging mining sounds everywhere, Lin Jie glanced at them, and saw that each of them was tightly wrapped around their faces with dirty bandages, and only their chins were covered. Tentacles are floating around as if dead.

But the pupils of each of them are like beasts.

Lin Jie frowned slightly, looking at the residents in front of him, even if he didn't come, these animal pupils would destroy the entire Nuojin one day sooner or later.

They are oppressed by layers of exploitation, trading their lives for rare food and resources to keep them alive.

Black cloaks are almost a piece of clothing in the downtown area. People here don't seem to have considered other colors, or pure black is in line with the positioning of the downtown area.

This is a darker place than Nightland.

Residents in the past had to quickly complete their daily tasks before they could go to the designated places in the upper city to exchange for food.

Especially in recent years, the mining of resources has dropped sharply, and more energy is needed to mine the ore at night, so they don't care about Lin Jie at all, and they don't even see the tentacles on his chin.

Survival is not resolved and other situations must be put in the last item.

"It seems that you can't sell books here..." Lin Jie was hit hard by a man who snatched ore. He looked at the people running like the tide and said with a sigh.

"But we still have to work hard." Lin Jie continued to move forward... Maybe he could choose a store.

With this mentality in mind, Lin Jie walked for several hours to the sparsely populated mine, and saw many women and children collecting here. It seems that because of the lack of resources, strong men would not come here.

It's nice here, very quiet... Lin Jie couldn't help being a little happy.

Opening a bookstore here seems to be a good idea. Lin Jie doesn't care about the environment, it doesn't matter how bad it is.

suddenly--

Lin Jie's clothes seemed to be caught by something, he turned his head, but he didn't see anything.

"Hey! Red is here!"

A childish voice pierced into Lin Jie's ears, he immediately lowered his head, and saw a little girl who looked like a mushroom.

The girl was wearing a black cloak, but there were no dirty bandages. Her skin was not as green as most of the residents, but slightly reddish, but like them, it was as rough as crocodile skin.

This girl is different from other bony residents—that is, she is a bit fat, and even said that her round face becomes a bit funny even if it is matched with such an ancient, terrifying and hideous face.

She is most likely the kind of girl who will gain weight by drinking water.

Lin Jie was attracted all eyes by the chubby and joyfully swaying tentacles on her chin, and couldn't help but start to wonder, there is such a ridiculous situation in creatures polluted by evil gods.

"Can't you see me?... Are you that, that, what are you looking at?" The little girl who claimed to be red frowned, and forgot halfway through her threatening words.

"There is no one in sight." Lin Jie reminded.

"Ah, yes! It's just that you're defiant!" Hong seemed to remember something happy, but then remembered that she was angry, and immediately restrained her smile, full of majesty.

"Don't be arrogant!" Hong said loudly: "Hong is just, just a little short! Can you see clearly now?"

As she spoke, she raised her hand to compare her height, and she was only as tall as Lin Jie's thigh.

"I see." Lin Jie said with a smile.

Only then did Hong let go of Lin Jie's cloak, hugged his chest like a little adult, and said, "Are you a smuggler from the upper city? It's too outrageous to be so swaggering, don't you know to be more careful?"

"Watch out for what?"

"The fabric on your body, and the color of your skin... People in the upper city always look down on us, huh, but in fact, as long as they are covered with gray fog, they will immediately lose their minds. I saw several people from the upper city before, That's how they killed them."

The little girl put her hips on her hips and snorted coldly with a puffy face, but because of the chubby tentacles on both sides of her cheeks, she looked like a fried sausage.

them? ...So it turned out that Lin Jie suddenly realized that some of those stowaways didn't die because of pollution, but were killed by people in the lower city.

Are there not many who dare to resist among the blindly oppressed?

"Then why are you reminding me?"

"Because... because I want you to attract more people from the upper city! Don't you people in the upper city like to make friends?"

The little girl was confident, pointed at Lin Jie with the bone knife in her hand, and said aggressively, "Now you are my hostage, go back to the shed with me, don't let others see you, or I will kill you."

Lin Jie was a little surprised. He originally wanted to open a bookstore silently and wait for someone to come to him, but occasionally there are quite interesting adventures in life. If he keeps his so-called omniscient eyes open, he will lose many surprises.

Lin Jie smiled and said, "Okay."

Hong tugged on Lin Jie's clothes and told him to be more honest from time to time, but Lin Jie didn't look scared at all, unlike those people in the upper city who were arrogant... But Lin Jie was indeed arrogant.

But it's not the same kind of arrogance, Hong thought carefully, that kind of feeling probably can't help but feel that he is powerful?
