Chapter 1662: No Ticket Pay with your Life
The snotball looked like it could take on any shape. At least for now, an extremely thin tentacle was protruding from its body. Due to the fact that it was very thin, it was very difficult to notice it, and what was even more surprising was that this tentacle also blocked perception.
He stole something from his pockets in just a couple of seconds, after which an eye appeared on his body, and after looking at Su Xiao, that lump of snot secretly heaved a sigh of relief, realizing that he didn't intend to get involved in this matter.
All sorts of creatures were lining up to enter the city one by one. The queue only got bigger by the minute, which made Su Xiao a little embarrassed.
Why was this city so popular?
In fact, the outer layer of the Black Abyss was very popular, and although it was dangerous, really strong creatures could not stay in the outer layer for too long, otherwise they would be sucked to the bottom of the Black Abyss in a moment, where it was almost impossible to survive.
Because of this, the outer layer of the Black Abyss was very rich in resources. All sorts of races and wild packs tried to dig in there and ruled the land as if they were real kings. Wild animals as such often had no intelligence at all, so they killed anyone who tried to enter their territory, with the exception of their own kind.
Some of the different races that were currently standing in this queue had come here either to test their strength or to hunt for treasures, and some of them were just ordinary bounty hunters. Some even went to the Black Abyss for the sake of killing other daredevils, for example, the lump of snot that stood in front of Su Xiao was a prime example of this. Although he looked harmless, he was actually an experienced Black Abyss hunter.
After waiting in line for a few minutes, Su Xiao successfully entered the city. There was no interrogation, no search. At the entrance, they only asked him about his destination, and when they heard that he was heading to the Black Abyss, they immediately let him pass.
Once inside the city, he couldn't go anywhere. For further movement around the city, he had to wait for the guide on a special square, from where he could see a good landscape.
Half an hour later, about a thousand people gathered in this square.
— Murababasa.
Hearing something that sounded like "Father", Su Xiao turned his head and saw crocodile head who had something stolen from his pockets earlier.
There was a look of alarm on his face, and now he was trying to prove something to an ordinary-looking guy.
— Even if you call me father, I won't help you, " the boy replied. He had a pale face and a thin body. He didn't look good. If he died in the next second, no one would be surprised.
— Ulamaka! Croc head roared, clearly not understanding what this guy said.
*Pouf!*
The thin-bladed dagger pierced through the crocodile's head.
The blade sank into his jaw and came out of his skull.
The skin on his head turned from black to pale white in an instant, and the crocodile head itself began to get smaller and smaller right before his eyes.
With a whoosh, the boy pulled the dagger out of his head. His green eyes immediately made it clear to many that he was not a human, but a kind of "ghost" in the Void, a descendant of the "Green Ghost" race.».
— And why did you decide to die? the guy coughed and looked at the lump of snot. "Give me that, ball of snot.
— … — The lump didn't say anything, but a few seconds later a leather purse fell out of it.
As soon as he picked it up, a clang of armor echoed through the square.
Three armored demons appeared in the square.
— You have one moment to explain the situation.
For demons, one instant was roughly 72 human seconds.
— This jerk called me father and...
The guy was obviously afraid of demons, so he explained the whole situation very quickly, without missing any details.
A few minutes later, the three demons dragged the corpse away and took the pouch.
In the demon territory, if someone took the initiative to cause trouble and then suddenly died, no one would care. If someone decided to create trouble for someone and ended up dying because of it, they could only accept that death, because in that case, everything would be within the rules.
As soon as the three demons left, a succubus appeared in the square. Succubi were very similar to humans. Su Xiao knew this even when he met Lilith. They were particularly similar to people in the chest area.
— Attention, " the woman said, and clapped her hands, drawing everyone's attention. Her clothing wasn't revealing, but even so, it was tempting because of the talent of her race.
She was in a very good and playful mood, however, it was quite logical. Everyone in this square wanted to enter the Black Abyss from the Demon Clan's territory, which meant that they were about to have to pay the toll.
The passage to the Black Abyss was the demon clan's cash cow. This woman was very similar to the most ordinary guide, if of course you remove from the attention of an unusual group. With the exception of the young members of various races, many old men who wanted to enter the Black Abyss were not good people. Some of them wanted to escape from their enemies, while others went to the Black Abyss for the sake of killing and looting.
As a result, the succubus led the group further, but not to Brahma. They didn't even have the chance to make contact with the demon clan's civilians. After walking through a very long underground tunnel, they saw a fortress whose walls reached into the sky.
However, they didn't need to enter this fortress. Immediately, they entered another underground tunnel, and at the same time, a train slowly entered the tunnel. Judging from its unusual appearance, it was hard to tell what kind of creature it was in the past.
The succubus started asking everyone who was going where, and also kindly reminded everyone that the Black Abyss was divided into many layers.
After learning about Su Xiao's destination, she pointed at the train.
Shortly after he got inside, the train started moving.
His speed was quite good and he worked for a couple. The demons ' technological development wasn't backward, they just weren't used to using high-tech products, and the problem wasn't that they didn't know how to use them or where and how to get them. There were many high-tech civilizations in the Void, so it wasn't a problem. They just didn't see the point of these technologies.
The train gradually began to emit more and more steam, which caused it to accelerate and accelerate.
An elderly woman with a haggard figure and a hunchback stepped out of the front of the train. In her hand, she held a wooden basket made from the roots of a plant. Her eyes, which seemed to have flames burning in them, indicated that she was a demon.
Seeing this elderly woman, several people on the train straightened up and became alert.
*Ding-ding-ding*
The brass bell around the old woman's neck made a pleasant tinkle.
After that, she started walking forward, and every time she passed a passenger, he would drop a few coins into her wooden basket.
— May... Can I go back?" I was robbed of all my money on the platform, right on your territory, so it's not my fault, " said a burly man almost four meters tall. He was from the giant race, but right at this moment, his body was shaking.
The old woman stopped and slowly lowered the wooden basket to the floor.
*Click-click...*
At the sound of bones breaking, the old woman straightened up a little.
Seeing this, the other passengers next to the giant stood up and stepped aside to avoid being smeared with blood.
— Kx-x-x... the burly man's breathing became more and more rapid, and saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth, but when it left his mouth, it immediately flew into the air.
— Ah!!!
With a roar, he used all his strength and patterns of white color appeared on his body.
But ten seconds later...
*Crunch-crunch...*
The old woman swallowed the giant's fingers and picked up her basket, pulling the hood back on.
Did you decide to take the train without any money on hand? And I decided to come back when I realized that I couldn't get through as a hare? What a joke. Even if you omitted the fact that the fare had to be paid, he was in demon territory. If he didn't have any money, then he must have had the strength, otherwise, what was the point of trying to get through like a hare?
After all, demons weren't known for being intelligent and polite creatures.
