Chapter 363 It’s much safer than outside (please subscribe)
Juque City.
Even Chen Fan couldn’t help but sigh at the magnificence of this big city.
There are eight camps equivalent to the size of a medium-sized city in the four directions of southeast, northwest and northwest alone.
The strange thing is that these camps are not protected by walls, just like the cities in his previous life.
“This seems to be a little different from what Gu Ze said.”
Chen Fan said secretly.
These gathering places don’t even have walls, so don’t you worry about being attacked by ferocious beasts at night?
After all, in Anshan City, even he did not dare to wander around outside the city at night, but here he did.
“Perhaps, there are really no vicious beasts here at night?”
An idea flashed in Chen Fan's mind.
He walked all the way from Anshan City. When he first left, he could still encounter one or two elite-level ferocious beasts from time to time. Gradually, he could only encounter high-level ferocious beasts, and then even mid-level and low-level ferocious beasts were rare.
Arrived nearby, not even a shadow of a ferocious beast could be seen.
Combined with the fact that these gathering places in front of them don’t even have walls, if a ferocious beast attacks them at night, will they risk their lives?
“It is indeed a large city.”
He sighed inwardly and continued to look around. He saw in every gathering place, roads criss-crossed, houses lined up in rows, and people flowing in an endless stream.
The most eye-catching thing is the twenty- to thirty-meter-wide road in the middle of each direction, which stretches for dozens of miles and finally converges in front of a huge thing, that is, the giant city in front of you.
The city wall is more than 300 meters high, towering into the sky, and the eight surrounding camps are not worth mentioning before this building.
The city wall stretches for hundreds of kilometers and is connected end to end to form a square. The wall seems to be made of some kind of metal. It is not dazzling in the sun, but emits a black light, like a sleeping steel giant.
On the wall, there are countless things like windows, about two meters in size, which are tightly closed.
“Is it the muzzle of a cannon?”
Chen Fan said to himself.
You can imagine that if a beast wave breaks out, countless black artillery barrels will stick out of the wall, aiming at the surroundings, and thousands of guns will be fired.
On the city wall, some artillery and even fighter jets can be vaguely seen.
And this may be just the tip of the iceberg of this large city's defensive strength.
Chen Fan took a deep breath, slowed down, and walked forward. After finally visiting a large city, he wanted to take a good look at what it was like here.
Along the way, he had the illusion that he had traveled back in time.
The street is busy with traffic, there are traffic lights and zebra crossings. Pedestrians are waiting on the roadside, looking at their mobile phones and passing the time.
At the bus stops on both sides, there were many people dressed as office workers, carrying briefcases, sitting or standing there.
There were also some students, all aged sixteen or seventeen, wearing school uniforms, talking quietly.
“The high school entrance examination will be in two months, and I’m not ready yet. I really don’t know if I will be able to enter the Warrior High School by then.”
"Sun Hao, don't be modest. You are definitely determined in the cultural class. In the martial arts realm, as long as you can reach the second level of body tempering, aren't you already at the second level of body tempering? What the **** are you worried about?"
“That is, excessive humility equals pride.”
"How can there be?" The boy named Sun Hao smiled bitterly and said: "The admission line is the second level of physical tempering, yes, but it does not mean that you can be admitted if you reach the second level. In the end, admission is based on merit. You should also know that we are in the third grade of junior high school. Many people have reached the third level of body tempering, and there are even some who have reached the meat refining stage!"
"Are you talking about Wang Shi? That guy is indeed a genius. He is one year younger than us, but he is a warrior in the middle stage of meat refining. I heard that he has been appointed by the warrior high school. Regardless of his cultural class results by then No matter what, being admitted is a sure thing."
“There seems to be one person in Class Thirteen who has reached the meat-refining stage, but he is not as perverted as Wang Shi. He is in the early stage of meat-refining.”
“There is also one in Class 6.”
"It's so irritating that people are more popular than others. They have already made meat. We are only at the first level of Body Tempering. We can't even touch the threshold. We probably won't be admitted to Warrior High School. When the time comes, we can only go to ordinary high schools. After graduation, Either go to farm or go to the factory to drive screws.”
"Well, it's actually good to have screwdrivers. At least you don't have to risk your life, and you can still get a salary. After working for decades, you will definitely not be able to afford a house in Jique City, but you can buy a house with a few dozen square meters here. , it’s still possible, it sounds very hard, but for people in the cities outside, even living is a luxury.”
“Is it so miserable?”
"What do you think? Look at us, there are almost no ferocious beasts here. The buses are still running at night. If you step back 10,000 steps, even if there are, they will be dealt with by the awakened masters or warriors in the city soon. If you don’t believe it, you can ask yourself, apart from seeing ferocious beasts on the screen over the years, how many times have you seen them in real life?”
“That’s true.”
"Isn't it okay? If we go further inside, there are three super large cities where the Thunder Emperor and the others are stationed, as well as the triangle area formed, which will be safer. However, we have about the same number here. We can spend this life safely. fine."
"But it would be better if you could become a warrior." As soon as he said this, it immediately aroused a resonance.
“Yes, if you can get into Warrior High School, you will not only be exempted from tuition fees, but you will also receive subsidies. Your parents will not have to work from dawn to dusk every day and pay rent.”
“Yes, I can eat better, and even buy elixirs. I heard that Wang Shi reached the realm of meat refining so quickly, which has something to do with the fact that his family has been taking Qi and Blood elixirs for him since he was a child.”
"If you are strong enough, you can also go hunting outside. I heard from one of my uncles that hunting once can equal the income of an ordinary person working for a year! If you can hunt a powerful big guy, ordinary people can work for a lifetime and earn as much. It’s not that much money!” “That’s what I say, but it’s dangerous outside, right? Even if the Awakened Lord in the city goes out, there’s a chance he won’t be able to come back.”
"really."
The atmosphere fell silent for a moment.
Chen Fan had a look of surprise on his face when he heard this.
He had guessed correctly before, there really were no ferocious beasts here.
If people from outside can come to a large city, even if they are not here, finding a place at random will be much safer than outside, right?
However, it is more than two thousand kilometers from Anshan City to here. Even from Anshan City to the nearest big city in Jiangnan, it is still more than a thousand kilometers. Even ordinary warriors do not have this ability.
Moreover, the stockades and small cities outside also acted as barriers, keeping out the ferocious beasts that were at the level of stragglers.
If everyone moves back, then these big cities may become the first line of defense to stop the vicious beasts.
Chen Fan sighed with emotion.
The last days will only be more cruel to ordinary people. They would rather be peace dogs than people in troubled times. This is the reason.
In addition, he also learned one thing from the discussions of those students.
That is to say, martial arts education in big cities seems to have been very developed. Even martial arts high schools have been established, and the students' words are full of expectations for becoming warriors.
Thinking about it, awakened people are born, if they have it, they have it, and if they don’t, they don’t have it. Warriors can be cultivated the day after tomorrow, which is the best choice for ordinary people to turn over.
Unfortunately, this road requires talent and even more resources, and is not that easy to walk.
Chen Fan shook his head and walked forward along the road.
A road of dozens of miles would be life-threatening to ordinary people, but to him, it was only a matter of a few steps.
The city wall, which is more than 300 meters high, gives people a sense of breathless oppression.
Under the city wall, there are nearly twenty entrances and exits, just like entering a train station.
Anyone who wants to enter needs to pay for a ticket, but there are exceptions, and that is the awakened person, or the warrior.
Whenever someone takes out something to prove his identity as an awakened person or warrior, he will always receive admiring looks from the people around him.
When it was Chen Fan's turn, he also took out the ID card of the Awakened Ones Association.
Sure enough, he once again gained the respect of everyone around him.
Chen Fan was a little dumbfounded, put away his ID, and walked into the city.
The moment you enter the city, a familiar feeling hits your face.
Modern high-rise buildings are rising one after another, and there are all kinds of elevated light rails. A little further away are residential areas, villa groups, and garden parks, making it look like a first-tier city.
Chen Fan looked at it for a long time before slowly exhaling.
Had he not been sober at the moment, he would have thought that he had not traveled through time.
It is indeed a large city.
If we say that Chen Jiabao is a scumbag in front of Anshan City.
Anshan City, in front of this giant city, is also a scumbag, maybe not even a scumbag.
For a moment, his heart was deeply moved.
“I don’t know what it will be like in a very large city.”
This idea came to Chen Fan's mind.
That is the safest and most powerful place in the entire Yan Kingdom.
“Forget it, now is not the time to think about these things, let’s get down to business.”
Chen Fan shook off the random thoughts in his mind and took two steps. Then he realized that he didn't know the way, so he had to take out his mobile phone and type in the words "Awakened People Association".
To his surprise, there were actually several Awakened Associations in the city. It must be that the city was too big, so several branches were set up.
“Just go to the nearest one.”
Chen Fan took a look and saw that it was almost thirty kilometers away.
In just a short time, he stood in front of the Awakened Association base. In the open space outside the door, many people shouted loudly, "The elite team is missing one of three, a control-type Awakened, or a wet nurse, etc." if.
Seeing Chen Fan arrive, someone immediately came up to him and asked him what his strength was. Are you interested in joining the adventure team?
Chen Fandu waved his hand and refused, walking forward alone.
