I created the Anomaly Control Bureau
Chapter 464 462. Toll Fees
At the garbage dump, two figures, one tall and one short, were heading towards the city.
"So you make money by picking these up?" Ma En asked curiously to the boy in front of him.
The boy showed Marne the pots he had collected:
"Yes, many demons in the city now like to collect low-level demons as pets, although these pets are essentially a different kind of slave, after all, they are also demons that will grow up and mature.
"But many demons will enjoy getting along with pets whose intelligence has not yet fully formed, not only because it can make them feel superior to their own intelligence, but also because pets are not like slaves who will want to betray you.
"Many demons will deliberately use rituals to restrict the growth of these low-level demons, so that they will always maintain their current basic posture, preventing them from acquiring mature wisdom, and most mature low-level demons will indeed not be pets because of this period. What kind of feelings do you have for your master in those days, you will only remember the devil who enslaved you."
Mann continued to ask:
"So they buy pets purely for the enjoyment of enslaving other beings?
"I thought they were going to do something more practical."
The little devil nodded:
"Of course, they can regard lower demons as intelligent creatures equal to themselves, but they don't have the problems that other intelligent creatures should have. Enslaving creatures is just one of the countless entertainment methods in hell."
"However, there are still many differences in the buyers of these pets. For example, the devils or demons in the path of bliss may buy these pets to meet their special needs, and some cruel demons may want to torture or kill these low-level demons. Come to decompress, anyway, being someone else's pet will not end well.
"Even slaves may at least find ways to please their masters, but pets don't even know what's affecting their own life and death, so I'm glad I didn't meet meat pickers back then.
"But this is hell, where the law of the jungle is the law of the jungle."
Mann nodded thoughtfully:
"It seems that hell is really a dangerous place, but according to what you said, is it possible to do whatever you want here as long as you have enough power?"
As they chatted more and more on the road, the little devil's fear of Ma En also eased a little, and now he was no longer worried that he would offend Ma En by saying the wrong thing, so he told the truth.
"It's true to say so." The little devil replied, "But in fact, there is no difference between here and the ground. In the final analysis, it is the strongest who make the rules, but it is more relaxed than the rules of hell in your place, and it will not Preventing us from doing evil is purely to satisfy the preferences of those great demons.
"So there are completely different rules in different regions of hell, but us ordinary demons must abide by the rules set by the big demons who rule the locality. Fortunately, Dragon Mother is more in charge of these big demons."
This must be a good thing for low-level demons like them. Some areas can almost be said to be in pure madness and chaos, killing and destroying everywhere, and no one knows whether they will survive until tomorrow.
But there is a basic order in Dragon Mother's city. The survival rate of weak demons like him and newborn high-level demons like Marne is much higher than other places, especially newborn demons like Marne. In a chaotic place, they will either be killed directly, or they will be forced to sign a slave contract.
Of course, it's not much better here, but the demons here often prefer to use tactful methods rather than direct hands. From this point of view, this place actually looks like a devil's city.
However, the proportion of demons in the ancient dragon ruins is indeed higher than that of other demon cities. Although Dragon Mother is a demon, she does not have any hostility or disgust towards demons, because she does not think she is a demon or a demon.
She is a descendant of dragons.
Mann asked:
"Then, is there any rule that Dragon Mother should pay attention to?"
The little devil immediately said with a flattering smile:
"Actually, it's not too many, but there are a few that need to be paid attention to. First of all, you must never approach the palace of Dragon Mother without permission. Only powerful IV demons have the right to freely enter and leave the surrounding urban areas.
"Because Dragon Mother is more concerned about the cleanliness of the city, as long as you are on the main streets in the urban area, direct bloody fights are not allowed. As long as you have no background, you will die if you basically do this.
"However, there are no such restrictions in small alleys, certain special areas, and all indoor areas. However, when fighting indoors, you must also pay attention not to spread to the streets, otherwise you will also be punished."
Mann said:
"So Dragon Mother is maintaining the superficial order?"
little devil said:
"I think she just doesn't like to see the streets in chaos. There is no order in the eyes of demons. I heard that those demons will be a little more particular, but that is not the same as the order on the ground."
Mann then asked:
"Is there anything else I should pay attention to?"
The little devil went on to say:
"There are basically no rules to restrict behavior, but there is one more thing in this city, that is, if you are taken by the Dragon Mother, you may be given dragon blood and directly become her direct demon.
"This is something that almost all low-level demons dream of. To get her blood, at worst, they can be promoted to the third-level, which is not weak. Many third-level demons who have been given blood have also been promoted to the fourth-level.
"Besides, there are very few blood-given demons who can become the best in IV, because the blood bestowed by Dragon Mother does not contain the power of hell, and the favored one will have two powerful powers at the same time.
"If you want to be seen by the Dragon Mother, you can go to the arena in the city. She often watches the competition in person and picks out the warriors she thinks are not bad, but the Dragon Mother does not always choose the winner.
"We don't understand her standards, so this kind of thing is pure luck..."
Just as the little devil was introducing the customs to Marne, the scene in the distance began to change. There were less and less garbage and squirming flesh and blood around him, and there were still a few figures standing in the distance.
Seeing this scene, the little devil suddenly stopped, looking a little overwhelmed, but he slowly mustered up the courage to look at Marne and said:
"They are scavengers, responsible for maintaining the safety of the garbage dump. We meat pickers have to pay them a protection fee before we leave here. After all, we are not very good at fighting in our line of work."
This is of course not true. There are no wild monsters in the garbage dump. They are purely for robbery. In fact, there are similar groups in other new lands, but they are all subordinates of powerful demons.
And they are wandering demons. Although they don't have any background, there is nothing wrong with bullying these little demons. After all, if they have the ability, they don't need to pick up things here.
At this moment, the little devil was a little nervous. In fact, he was not afraid of those gangster devils, but worried that Ma En would see that he was a weak and bullied devil, and he was afraid that he would leave him behind.
"My lord, you can wait here." The little devil said tactfully, "I'll go to the front to communicate with him. You still don't know their behavior style very well. I'm afraid they will offend you."
Ma En raised his hand and refused gently:
"No, I'll get used to it sooner or later anyway, won't I?"
Although the little devil was a little worried when he heard this, he didn't have the courage to reject Ma En. Although Ma En had been very gentle so far, he didn't think this was his true character.
Cruelty is the nature of demons, deeply engraved in their souls when they fell into hell.
Feeling apprehensive, the little devil walked forward with Maren, then looked up at the strong horned devil who was faintly surrounded by his companions, and carefully lifted the bag:
"Master Su Wener, this is my harvest this time."
A graceful female devil with horns came out from Su Wen's strong arms, and said to the little devil in a teasing tone:
"When will you keep doing this before you can save enough money not to do this job? Do you really not consider the suggestion I told you last time? There are many demons who especially like to ravage a little guy like you."
The little devil shivered, because he knew very well that the ravages in the mouth of the female devil were literal. He didn't think he was destined to make that kind of money, so he could only say in the humblest tone possible:
"No, no need."
Su Wen'er didn't take away his things immediately, but looked up at Mar En who was standing a few meters behind the little devil and looked leisurely, then looked down at the boy in front of him and asked:
"Little devil, why don't you introduce your new friend to us?"
Hearing this, the little devil immediately turned around and glanced at Ma En. After seeing that Ma En had no reaction, he looked at Su Wener again without knowing what to say, and then said somewhat vaguely:
"I met him on the road."
Seeing that the little devil didn't answer clearly, Su Wener glanced at him with a cold face, which startled the boy, but he immediately raised his head to look at Marn who was standing a few meters away, and then asked politely :
"Do you want to come here to work too?"
His words can be understood as asking Ma En if he wants to be a meat picker, but it can also be understood as asking him if he wants to get involved in the distribution of benefits, which is more of a cryptic warning.
But he didn't expect Marne's answer.
Mann said honestly:
"No, I just went to hell. I happened to meet a kind little devil. He said he would take me to the nearest city. I should think about work after entering the city."
After saying this, all the demons except him changed their faces, because they immediately realized that what they were facing was a very rare high-level demon, and it was still at his weakest stage.
The little devil also regretted not reminding Ma En of the preciousness of the High Demon. He didn't say it directly because he wanted to fear that Ma En would look down on him, but he didn't expect Ma En to be so straightforward.
Su Wener showed an inexplicable smile:
"Hell is not like the world you lived in. If you want to get anything here, you can only rely on strength to grab it."
Marne also smiled:
"Actually, I felt the same when I was up there."
Su Wener began to look up and down Ma En a little recklessly, and began to deduce in his mind how many steps he would take to subdue the opponent, and how to break his neck if Ma En became dangerous.
But before he could say anything next, he heard the voice of his companion.
"It's all over." The female devil with horns stood up and returned the deflated bag to the boy.
The little devil looked down at the bag. Although most of the bottles had been taken away, they still kept the most valuable pet in it, so that the value of the remaining pets was one-third of the original value.
It is also an agreed number.
Su Wener, who heard this sentence, seemed to be attracted and looked back at Ma En, then walked in front of the little devil, looking at the shriveled bag in his hand with some curiosity:
"Have you encountered any good goods this time?"
As he spoke, he picked up the bag, stretched his hand in to pick it out, and then took out the most expensive bottle, and asked in a nonchalant tone:
"This looks pretty good, I took it back as a gift."
The little devil was about to cry when he saw this scene. After the most expensive pet was taken away, what was left was worthless at all. Not only did he do it for nothing in the past few months, but he might even have to pay for it. few.
But in the face of such insults, he could only suppress his anger, and said in a low voice:
"Take whatever you like."
After saying this, the little devil also began to comfort himself in his heart, if he could seize the sudden opportunity of Ma En, then this little money would be nothing.
But even so, he still couldn't completely suppress the humiliation in his heart. The point is not how much money he lost this time, but that the money was taken away because of his weakness.
And he is actually very clear that the possibility of him being able to seize this opportunity is not high. He is actually lucky if a high-level demon like Marne can not kill him.
After snatching away the little devil's pet, Su Wener looked up at Marne.
Ma En still didn't have any reaction to this. Seeing that calm and gentle face, Su Wener even felt that he might not be scheming, but simply didn't understand what happened just now.
"If you don't have enough money." The goat devil said to the little devil, "You can think about my proposal carefully after you go back. As long as you let go, I will be able to contact you with the buyer immediately."
The little devil suppressed a smile and said:
"If I change my mind, I will definitely come to you immediately."
Su Wener said coldly:
"get out."
The ram horned demon also winked at Marne:
"Looking forward to seeing you next time, handsome."
Ma En pretended not to see the formation in her eyes, smiled and nodded:
"Goodbye by fate."
Then he stretched out his hand and patted the little devil's shoulder:
"Let's go, we shouldn't be far from the city, right?"
The boy raised his hand and rubbed his face, then squeezed out a warm smile again:
"Not far."
Thank you for voting for the monthly ticket, this month's monthly ticket ranking is not bad for the time being~
"So you make money by picking these up?" Ma En asked curiously to the boy in front of him.
The boy showed Marne the pots he had collected:
