Stone waved a small knife and scraped off the scales of a big fish in his hand. Then, he took out the internal organs and threw them into the bucket.
It was said that these organs would become food for the ogres, so they couldn’t be wasted.
After smearing the fish meat with coarse salt, Shi TOU placed it in a big basket at the side. Soon, someone carried it away.
The fish meat would be dried and stored in the cave.
After processing a batch of fresh fish, stone wiped the sweat on his forehead and turned to look at the side.
Many of the survivors of Black Rock City, like him, were buried in their work, dissecting and processing countless fish and shrimp.
“With this food, we don’t have to worry about hunger anymore, right?”
As Shi TOU thought of this, he felt an inexplicable sense of happiness in his heart.
They were not residents of Holy Dragon City yet, but the city Lord had already promised that as long as they performed well, they could obtain the qualifications of reserve residents!
Although he was once a resident of Black Rock City, stone did not feel very happy. Instead, he felt a slight sense of depression.
In a place like Black Rock City, all the good things were controlled by the rich and powerful. The ordinary citizens could only barely fill their stomachs and work day after day, living like The Walking Dead.
There, you would never feel any hope, only confusion and loss.
Stone didn’t know why the Wanderers outside envied the residents of loucheng. Was it because they didn’t have to worry about starving to death?
During the period when Black Rock City was besieged by the undead, stone saw many acquaintances disappear from his life.
Some of them had died in battle, while others had starved to death. The food exchanged on the cornerstone trading platform was controlled by the rich and powerful, and would not be distributed to the hungry citizens of Black Rock City.
When stone was on the verge of starving to death, Black Rock City was burned down. He struggled to escape with his remaining physical strength and was later captured by the Allied forces of the three cities.
Looking at the Black Rock City that had been burned to the ground, stone did not feel any sadness, because that place only had painful memories.
Just as stone thought that he was about to wander in the wilderness or be killed by the Allied forces of the three cities, the convoy of Holy Dragon City appeared and rescued them.
The Holy Dragon city’s fully armed soldiers, the spectacular convoy, and the incomparably powerful city Lord all made stone feel like he couldn’t resist.
After witnessing the death of the city Lords of the three towers and the powerlessness of those who resisted, stone knew the final outcome.
This was a powerful enemy. The four towers, including Black Rock City, were no match for him!
A bowl of porridge from the Holy Dragon City had saved Shi TOU’s life, giving him a chance to live again. This also made Shi TOU extremely grateful to the Holy Dragon City.
After a long journey, Shi TOU finally arrived at Holy Dragon City.
Looking at the Holy Dragon city’s tall city walls and the heavenly scenery inside the city walls, stone suddenly had an impulse. How good would it be if he became a resident of the Holy Dragon City!
After entering the Holy Dragon City, the days were busy but simple. He was busy from morning to night, but stone felt particularly fulfilled.
Here, one didn’t have to worry about going hungry, and there was no bullying from the rich and powerful. One could also see many things that they had never seen before.
Every day, after stone finished his work, he would go outside to see the mother tree under the night sky. The guards would never stop him.
After a while, stone became familiar with the guards. From their mouths, stone learned more about Holy Dragon City.
The Holy Dragon city’s city Lord was very powerful and had an extremely mystical ability. It was said that he could move a small mountain in an instant.
The Holy Dragon city’s weapons were very powerful. The Holy Dragon City had killed more than two hundred of the four-legged flying dragons that were imprisoned in the valley. Their blood had dyed the city walls dark red.
The Holy Dragon city’s benefits were very good. Not only could they eat their fill and wear warm clothes, but they also gave out many free items, all of which were brand new!
The more he knew about the Holy Dragon City, the more stone desired to become a resident of the Holy Dragon City.
Just as stone was letting his thoughts run wild, a Holy Dragon City soldier walked over. He held a tube that could produce a very loud voice and began to speak from a high place.
“Attention all citizens of Black Rock City. The governor is going to form a new army and will be selecting soldiers from all the citizens of Black Rock City.
As long as they were successfully selected, they could obtain the qualifications of a reserve resident of Holy Dragon City. If they performed well, they would be directly promoted to an official resident. Their family members could also obtain the qualifications of an official resident!
Those who want to participate in the selection, report to me and take the test tomorrow.”
Listening to the Holy Dragon City warrior’s explanation, stone’s eyes grew brighter and brighter. When the queue for registration was announced, he was the first to rush forward.
……
Early the next morning, Shi TOU and a large group of people walked to the back Valley and began the selection test.
The one in charge of the selection was the Holy Dragon city’s Army’s chief. It was said that his name was Tai Seng, and he was a very powerful cultivator.
After nearly half a morning, stone was so tired that he could barely stand up. Finally, he passed the test.
From now on, stone had obtained the qualification of a reserve resident. After the next upgrade, he would become an official resident of the tower.
There were a total of 500 people who had passed the test, and they were led by Tai Seng to a cave.
Under the command of a beautiful woman, Shi TOU and the others carried out many weapons and armors from the cave, as well as new clothes and shoes.
Stone looked at the beautiful woman and felt his heart beat fast, but he didn’t dare to let his thoughts run wild.
I heard that this beautiful woman is called Murong Ziyan, and she’s the city Lord’s woman.
Several times, she was seen walking into the city Lord’s room in the middle of the night, and only walked out of the room with a tired expression after dawn.
Stone felt that this was a very normal thing, because this woman was in charge of all the supplies in Holy Dragon City. It was a matter of great importance, so the city Lord naturally had to hand it over to the people closest to him.
The city Lord’s woman was naturally someone close to her!
After throwing away the random thoughts in his mind, stone turned to look at the weapons and equipment he had been given.
There was a steel sword, a strange-looking dagger, a set of armor, clothes, and shoes.
They were all brand new things that could be changed from the inside out.
even the most elite warriors in Black Rock City can’t get such equipment. Holy Dragon City is indeed rich!
Stone was a little disappointed that he didn’t get the automatic rifle, but he knew that it couldn’t be given out casually.
This was an extremely powerful weapon. Not only was its destructive power shocking, but it was also extremely expensive. It was said to be worth thousands of brain beads!
When Shi TOU first heard the price, he was immediately shocked. When he looked at the guns again, it was as if he was looking at a pile of shiny brain beads.
Putting on his clothes and armor, and hanging his weapon on his waist, stone felt that he had never been so majestic before. He kept his chest out and his head up as he walked.
Looking at the envious gazes of the Black Rock City survivors around him, stone felt extremely proud.
Because from today on, he had also become a member of the Holy Dragon City!
