The darkness was like a prehistoric monster, it covered the vast land. In the depths of the darkness, a glimmering city was struggling to survive.
The night in Jin Ling city was not charming at all. Every day, there were people dying because of various reasons.
Compared to the bright lights in the central district, the western district was much dimmer.
On both sides of the street, there were many hungry people in dirty clothes. They were constantly searching every corner of the city. They would never let go of anything that could fill their stomachs to relieve the pain in their stomachs.
The mice that were hiding in the dark were their favorite prey. Of course, if they were lucky, they might run into a stray cat or even a stray dog. Then it would be the best day of their life.
They didn't care whether the mice, stray cats, or stray dogs survived by eating the bodies of insects or humans. They only cared about filling their stomachs with the taste of fresh animal meat.
If you were holding a piece of bread, but you were an ordinary person, they would hide in the dark and take away your food when you were not paying attention. If you dared to resist, they would take out a knife from their sleeves and stab you seven or eight holes in your body. They would not hesitate at all.
If you were holding a piece of bread, but you were a dark warrior or a soldier with a weapon, they would stagger out of the dark with a flattering smile on their face. They would sincerely tell you that they would do anything for that piece of bread. Murder, arson, or sleep on the bed, as long as you said it, there was no bottom line.
If you were holding a piece of bread, but you were a dark warrior king or a staff member of GRD, then they would advise you to go home early. When they smelled your scent, they would take the initiative to stay far away from you. Then they would hide in the dark and look at you with fear in their eyes.
In this Glimmering City, among them, there were a few sentences that circulated among each other:
A piece of bread. I am not the kind of person you think I am.
A small piece of bread. Tonight I am your man.
Half a piece of bread. No matter how many people you bring.
A big piece of bread. Tonight you can not treat me as a person.
Two big pieces of bread. No matter who you bring.
…
However, in this city, there were always some places that they did not dare to step into, such as the defensive lines on all four sides, the heavily guarded central area, or the residential area for family members with signs hanging on them.
Of course, if you only knew these things, and you still wanted to be a qualified refugee and survive in Jin Ling city, then you would soon become one of those corpse trucks.
This was no longer an era where you could beg for food by kneeling on the ground and kowtowing. You needed to know every advantage you had and make use of them to obtain the capital to survive.
If you were strong and not afraid of death, then you should join the army. As long as you were lucky enough, you would be able to live a comfortable life before the next insect attack.
If you were beautiful enough to cause the downfall of a city, and any man who saw you would have his whole body go soft and hard, then you could consider trying to compete for the title of "Twelve Beauties of Jinling" in the Central District. If that didn't work out, you could also mingle with the "Eight Beauties of Qinhuai" in the Four Districts.
If there was really nothing good about them, they could also open the list of relatives and research whether there was a forgotten relative who could get in touch with a certain big shot. If they could get something out of the gaps between their teeth, at least they wouldn't starve to death.
If you did not have any relatives, then you could only go to the congee place that only came once every few days, and wait in the long and winding line, or diligently look for rats and cockroaches that were even rarer than humans.
Mo Wuluo was in this kind of situation, and it was even more miserable. He was still young, when the dark age came, he had just celebrated his 15th birthday.
All of his relatives had died, only he and his three-year-old daughter were left. That was his cousin's daughter. She was his only relative now.
Mo Wuluo was not useless. On the contrary, he was a dark warrior. But the sad thing was that he could not even pass the level-1 assessment. If he did not have the title of a wood elemental dark warrior, he would have already starved to death a few months ago.
He had joined many big and small forces, so many that he could not remember how many of them he had joined. But every time he joined, he would be kicked out.
The reason was very simple. In the beginning, many bosses had high hopes for him. They fed him and the baby for free. But after a long time, they found that his ability did not grow at all. Except for a little bit of healing ability, it was useless for other people.
So the food given to him became less and less every day. In the end, he could not even see a grain of rice. Some impatient bosses simply asked him to leave. In the dark age, every force's food was used to feed useful people. For someone like him who was so weak that he could only heal himself, and his ability did not grow for a long time, no one was willing to waste food on him.
Mo Wuluo was still a child. In order to survive, he wandered among different forces. Every time, he would "deceive" people. He had just awakened his dark energy and had a rare wood elemental ability. But after a while, he was kicked out again.
After a long time, many people knew about him, and he could no longer mingle with them. No one believed his lies anymore.
Mo Wuluo mingled with the starving people, begging everywhere, queuing up to get porridge, looking for rats to satisfy his hunger, and so on. Some people advised him to give up on the little girl. But he stubbornly refused to listen to other people's "advice". Every time he found food, he would ask his sister to eat first, and he would sit on the side and drool.
Until one day, he had not found any food for a long time. Both he and his sister were dying of hunger. A dark warrior that he was familiar with suggested him to go to an office building in the Western District to try his luck. He heard that it was a new force that had just emerged, so his previous things might not be exposed.
Therefore, the skinny 16-year-old Mo Wuluo, who was carrying his sister on his back, anxiously rushed from the north district to the west district. On the way, he made a decision that he regretted very much. He was naive enough to think that if he and his sister were alone, those people would definitely feed him for a longer period of time. In this way, he could save some food and secretly feed his sister for a longer period of time.
Therefore, he found a place to hide his sister and went to the office building alone.
Unfortunately, he was soon seen through by a fat dark warrior inside, and he was directly kicked out. He even thought of committing suicide with his sister to leave this difficult world.
But at the door, he was stopped by a skinny man in his 40s. The skinny man looked at him for a long time. His eyes were cold and merciless, which made Mo Wuluo's heart tremble. Miraculously, Mo Wuluo was allowed to stay, and he was told that he could bring his sister into the office building with him.
At that moment, Mo Wuluo was stunned. It was the first time that someone was willing to let him stay after hearing about his "experience". It meant that he and his sister would not be kicked out of this office building just because his ability was useless. He and his sister could live for a while longer!
When he went out to pick up his sister, his steps were light. The excitement in his heart made him temporarily forget about the hunger in his stomach. He reminded himself over and over again that this was real, this was real …
He couldn't wait to tell this good news to his sister. Although he knew that a three-year-old child wouldn't understand anything, she was the only person he could talk to.
However, when he returned to the place where he hid his sister, he was dumbfounded. His sister was nowhere to be found!
Mo Wuluo thought that his sister had escaped, so he frantically looked for her. But he couldn't find her. He panicked and sat on the ground. Tears began to fall down his face. At that moment, it was as if the sky had collapsed. Only then did he realize that his sister's existence was the reason that supported him to live like a numb person.
He had heard that in a dark corner of Jin Ling city, there was a group of vicious people who couldn't stand the hunger. They often stole the children of starving people on the streets at the darkest time of the night …
Mo Wuluo was extremely remorseful and remorseful. At the thought of his poor little sister, who was only two years old, facing such a tragic fate, he hated himself very much.
He used his right hand to hold the index finger of his left hand and tried to break it. The severe pain made him feel that it was not enough to make up for his stupid mistake!
Mo Wuluo was walking on the cold street in a daze. He kept calling his sister's name with a trembling voice,
"Miao Miao, where are you, I shouldn't have left you …"
His voice was more miserable and desperate than the previous one, echoing in the streets and alleys.
The starving people on the street were awakened by his voice. They looked at him in confusion, then sighed weakly and continued to stay silent.
Mo Wuluo turned a corner like a zombie. Suddenly, he heard the cry of a baby. His whole body shook, and an inexplicable force rose from the bottom of his heart. He had gone crazy!
The sound came from a residential building. Mo Wuluo climbed up the building at an incredible speed. Facing the cold door, he didn't know where he got the strength to break it open with his thin body!
There were four or five men and women in the room. They panicked for a second, but when they saw it was just a child, they let out a sigh of relief. Then they looked at Mo Wuluo gloomily.
Mo Wuluo didn't pay attention to how bloody the room was. With his wood elemental ability, he had already seen the baby on the side. It was his sister, Miao Miao!
Joy, excitement, fear, worry … all of these emotions rushed into his mind. But he didn't care at all. He desperately rushed to his sister, knocked over a man and a woman, and was stabbed in the back. Then he picked up his sister, who was still crying, and protected her tightly in his arms.
"I'm from the office building!" Mo Wuluo tried to scare them, but they didn't believe him at all.
"Kill this guy! Don't let him run away! "A tall man said fiercely.
Three men and two women quickly blocked the way to the door of Mo Wuluo's room, and approached him step by step. The long knife in their hands was still stained with bright red blood!
Mo Wuluo gritted his teeth, rushed to the balcony, and jumped down from the third floor!
The moment he landed, although he had the wood elemental ability to protect him, he still felt a sharp pain. The bone in his left leg was broken!
Run! He had to run! If they caught up with him, he and his sister would be finished! Mo Wuluo shouted in his heart!
There was still some distance between him and the office building. Only when he got there would he be safe. The people in the office building were definitely people that these evil people didn't dare to offend.
Mo Wuluo held his sister in his arms, dragged his left leg, and ran desperately towards the office building. Three men and two women followed closely behind him!
"Help, help!" Mo Wuluo shouted as he ran. Many people were starving, but they didn't see any police.
He was stabbed a few more times, and was about to collapse. Finally, he saw the door of the office building. He shouted as loud as he could, "help! Help! I'm Mo Wuluo, the people in your office building … "
"Brother, why did you stop?" A short man who was running slowly caught up with him and asked while gasping for breath.
"Fuck, it's really the people in the office building! Run!" The tall man shouted in fear. Everyone in the west district knew who lived in this office building!
But it was too late. Two flaming figures shot out from the office building, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived. The two men were wearing red armors, and they looked like two fire gods.
One of them pointed a long spear at the tall man, and said coldly, "whoever dares to offend my office building will be killed!"
Mo Wuluo was going to be an important figure in the middle stage of the war. (To be continued, if you want to know what happened next, please log in. Support the author! Support the original reading!) (To be continued.)
