Soul echo

Chapter 191 Arriving at Burger

The horse's hooves stepped into the soft soil, the horse snorted, and a puff of hot air came out of its mouth, pulling a carriage slowly towards the city not far ahead.

Because it is winter, travel is not easy, many businessmen will regard winter as a time of rest, and will not start work for the new year until the ice and snow melt in spring.

Of course, there are also a very small number of businessmen who act against the laws of the seasons, or are not afraid of ice and snow, or they are doing business in winter.

On the road, Zhong Ye seldom saw other pedestrians. Even if he saw them, they were pulling carts or riding animals with thick fur, which seemed to be very suitable for sports in this season. They did not use them like him. Malay carts.

For Lilian, this was a rare and surprising sight. Whenever she met a passerby, she could not help but lean against the window and look out through the glass window.

Yaks, giant sheep, and even dinosaurs!

Every encounter with a car is an eye-opener for her.

——This is her first winter in "Echo of Soul". With the game's plot advancement speed and player growth speed, she may still be able to play for a long time.

Almost arriving at Bulger, Lilian naturally moved to the window, her eyes diverging along the outline of the city wall.

Outside the city, she saw many long walls, which spread several kilometers away, and looked like farm walls, but she had never seen such high walls and fences on farms in reality, and it was difficult to determine .

However, this may be related to the inherent ecology of this game world, after all, there are no 'monsters' on the earth.

Around Burger, Lilian didn't see the plumes of smoke soaring into the sky. She was a little curious, didn't there be factories built in this city?
They entered the city easily. The soldiers guarding the city gate didn't even stop them. They just glanced at them and waved them to pass. What's more, they yawned on the spot, pulled down their hats and continued to doze off.

Lilian couldn't help but be amazed by the lazy attitude of those soldiers, even guarding the city gate could be so blatantly lazy?
After entering the city, she realized that it was not only the soldiers on duty, but also other people in the city.

In the shops that are open for business, the clerks lie idly on the table and lean on the chairs. If there are customers, they will stand up lazily, and the customers are not angry and very patient.

"Is it like this in winter? Or is it only Bulger?" Lilian asked the audience in the live broadcast room.

[——It seems that only Bulger is like this. I am now in Lundinium, just like the earth. Many factories have been built here. Even in winter, workers have to go to work on time. 】

【——I watch other anchors, and their places are still very lively even in winter. 】

【--is that so?Then how can I be the same as Bulger here? 】

After only two glances, Lilian withdrew her attention.

At this time, the door of the carriage was opened, and Zhong Ye put a few rolls of thick cloth in, and said, "I have already found out that the mainstream belief in this city is Earth Mother."

Hearing this sentence, 'True Whitefish' raised his eyes, glanced at Zhong Ye, and said in that hoarse voice: "Have you not given up yet? It's useless, no one can learn anything from me."

"How do you know if you don't try?"

As he said that, Zhong Ye closed the car door, and his voice was transmitted into the car through a wooden board. It sounded a bit erratic and gloomy, "Anyway, you have hurt so many people, even if you die because of it, you can't make up for what you have done. fault."

'True whitefish' immediately widened its eyes, and its breathing became heavy and rapid.

"Do you feel scared?" Lilian took Zhong Ye's words and said gloomyly, "Why didn't you think that you would end up like this one day when you murdered other people's money and lives?"

The carriage shook, and the carriage started to move again.

The man sitting opposite Lilian looked at the girl in disbelief. Along the way, she seldom showed dislike for him, which gave him an illusion—maybe she still had some kindness towards him... …

Seeing his expression, Lilian laughed, "Does it feel strange? Do you think I will pity you? In my eyes, you are already a dead person, the difference is only sooner or later!"

'True whitefish' is not pitiful, even if he is just a 'tool', the fact that he has directly or indirectly hurt many people will not change. As outsiders who have nothing to do with themselves, Zhong Ye and Lilian are not qualified to replace the Those he hurt come to forgive him.

He is carrying a 'sin', no matter whether he hurts others out of subjective will or not, the objective facts will not change.

Therefore, there are countless people whose families have been ruined, and he must be punished!

When he came to the gate of the most magnificent temple in Bulger, Zhong Ye let Lilian get out of the car first, and then brought out the dazed 'True Whitefish'.

"Nice job." An inaudible voice came from beside her ear, Lilian smiled and moved her arm lightly. When Zhong Ye brushed past her, he bumped his fist with her.

"You wait here for a while, I will take him in and come out soon."

After instructing his students a few words, Zhong Ye twisted the 'True Whitefish' into the Earth Temple.

At the gate, he was stopped by the guards guarding the temple for questioning, but after hearing about the identity of the 'True Whitefish', the guards' face changed slightly, and they directly brought Zhong Ye into the temple.

However, Zhong Ye didn't stay in the temple for too long, he explained a few words to the priest who received him, and then left the earth temple.

This city is much bigger than Annecy, and there are so many manors and farms outside the city. Even the Church of the Mother Earth cannot find out how many people in this city use hallucinogens.

Although the Church of the Earth Mother definitely knew some information, Zhong Ye wanted to start from the perspective of an outsider and look at what happened in this city from the perspective of an 'outsider'.

As the saying goes, 'the authorities are obsessed with the onlookers,' in the situation, the Earth Mother Church will inevitably have some blind spots, but Zhong Ye doesn't have so many worries, and maybe he can see more things that people living in this city have not discovered.

This time without the support of a powerful comrade-in-arms like the 'Shield of Perseverance', he can't act as arrogantly as Ananxi in Burger, and needs to think of other ways...

When he was driving the carriage and was about to arrive in front of the Adventurer's House in Bulger, Zhong Ye had a sudden thought: "Lilian, have you ever seen what a slum looks like?"

"what?"

Lilian, who was chatting with the barrage, was taken aback, froze for a while, then shook her head and replied, "No..."

"Then I'll take you to see it later!"

……Um?

Lilian blinked her eyes, not understanding why Zhong Ye suddenly mentioned this, and why Zhong Ye suddenly wanted to take her to see the slums.

But she did not really see what the slums in "Echo of Souls" looked like, even when she was still in Belgrade, she never went to the slums there-although her residence in the game is not far from the slums of Belgrade.

There seemed to be danger hidden in the slums. Every time she was curious and wanted to take a look, the words 'dangerous area' would pop up in front of her eyes, and she dispelled that idea.

As for the slums in other cities, Zhong Ye took them in to have a look, but they didn't see what they looked like.

As soon as Zhong Ye mentioned this matter, Lilian's curiosity was aroused, and she muttered to the audience behind the camera what it was like, and then learned from them in horror that more than one player gave up all three resurrection opportunities. spent in the slums.

Because of poverty, the poor people often fight fiercely and kill people, and the outsiders are the prey of all of them. If they are not careful, they will be eaten by them until there is no bone left-literally!
In the slums in some places, no one will pay attention to killing people on the street, and they are genuine extralegal places.

Why would Zhong Ye want to take her to see such a place?
