Chapter 320

Yes, hell.

When Soram entered the city gates, there were all the low, dilapidated shacks, and the ground was full of sewage, and in the corners there were a large number of unclothed children, their bellies swollen with hunger, and they were crawling up and down the ground, trying to find something to eat from the hot sand.

Suddenly, a gilded carriage full of slaves galloped past and ran over the children, splattering blood and crushing at least two children to death. But the soldiers patrolling the side of the road didn't seem to see anything, and the passers-by only glanced at them indifferently.

To make matters worse, some of the avenues are lined with filthy gutters, perhaps because the sewers are not well designed, so they are used instead of sewers. A large number of bodies of the destitute were left behind. Others collapsed miserably on the side of the road, silently waiting for death to come.

Solam looked at everything in front of him in disbelief, human life seemed to be insignificant here, not to mention irrelevant people, even those poor people themselves are not a serious matter.

There was only numbness in their eyes, even if they were expelled and scolded, there was no emotional change in their eyes, they just walked to the side silently like the walking dead.

Soram looked at these people, his scalp was a little numb, this kind of scene in Solam's opinion, it was more terrifying than the bloody battlefield!

"Lord Solam, what are you looking at?" When Muhammad returned to the caravan after paying the entrance tax, he saw Soram staring at the untouchables and asked a little strangely.

Yes, these destitute people are pariahs in Muhammad's eyes! This is not the view of Muhammad alone, but of all people, in Port Carlin, these people do not have any so-called human rights, no one needs to be held responsible for killing them, their lives are so humble.

"What's going on with them? Doesn't anyone take care of these children? "If a wealthy businessman crushes two children to death in another part of the mainland, even where the law is lax, he will be punished, such as a fine or something.

But here, no one cared, not even the patrol soldiers who had just walked by, they didn't even look at it.

Muhammad glanced at Solam a little strangely, in his heart, shouldn't the casters be the kind of cold and cruel guys? I didn't expect Soram to have such idleness to worry about these "rats".

"Oh, they're all abandoned kids, they don't even know who their parents are, it's common in Port Carlin, not everyone can afford to raise a child here."

Someone once counted that more than ninety percent of the people in Port Carlin live below the poverty line, and more than half of them live in extreme poverty.

These are the lucky ones, at least for now, and most of them are dead before they reach adulthood.

"As for these children, who cares? I guess it's just the gangsters. ”

These words made Soram stunned, the gang will take care of a bunch of orphans? Could it be that the gangsters in Port Carlin have become philanthropists? Of course not! Muhammad then explained what had happened.

It turns out that those gangsters are not doing charity, but they need some low-level members, these orphans who have no relatives and no reason are obviously the best targets, these orphans who have struggled on the line of life and death since childhood, they are not afraid of heaven and earth, as long as they give some benefits, they dare to do anything.

The most important thing is that the cost of controlling this kind of child is low, as long as you give some food, so many low-level little gangsters like to take in these little cubs very much.

Just as Solam and the others were talking, suddenly several sleek children ran to Solam's side, and their tanned thin bodies suddenly knelt beside Soram and kowtowed vigorously. "Alright, give me something to eat, I'm dying of hunger, please, kind sir!"

Solam looked at them and couldn't help but think of the children in the orphanage in Silvermoon City, and suddenly relented a little, so he took out a few gold coins from his dimensional bag and threw them over.

But what happened next made Soram stunned, and the children left happily without getting the gold coins, but a group of children began to fight for those gold coins!

And when fighting, the scene is extremely bloody, so you don't feel at all that this is a bunch of children. They fight desperately, they hit with their fists, they kick with their feet, and they even bite with their teeth! And there was no severity at all, it was completely beaten to death, and Solam saw that one child actually pulled out the eyeballs of another child with his fingers.

Just when Soram was stunned, suddenly a child was squeezed out of the crowd and fell directly to Solam, who subconsciously held the child with his hand. But at the moment when Soram held the child, his face suddenly turned stunned, as if he had discovered something incredible, and he looked down at the child he was holding in disbelief.

It turned out that just at the moment when Soram held the child, the child stabbed Soram's abdomen with a dagger with his backhand, and at the same time grabbed Soram's dimensional bag with his other hand!

Of course, this child can't succeed, just like that, what strength can a child have. As for the dagger, it was a dagger made of an old piece of iron, which couldn't even pierce Solam's skin, let alone the spider robe on Solam's body.

Besides, no matter how slow Solam's reaction is, it is better than a malnourished child, so the moment the child grabbed his dimensional bag, Soram grabbed his hand.

However, the kid was caught, not only did he not panic, but looked at Solam with a look of resentment, and at the same time, the hand holding the dagger did not stop, still frantically stabbing Solam's abdomen, making Solam's abdomen itch.

As soon as Soram exerted his strength, he directly lifted the kid up. That kid is really fierce, even if so, he is still not honest, and the moment he was lifted by Solam, he actually raised the dagger in his hand and stabbed Soram in the eye.

But a child is a child, his hands are too short, and as soon as Soram straightened his arm, the kid couldn't reach Soram, and everyone laughed as if they were seeing a burlesque when they looked at his arm waving in the air because he couldn't reach Soram.

Muhammad immediately ran over and kicked away a child who was still fighting for gold coins, while cursing loudly: "Get out! I don't care about you! You damned rats! ”

At the same time, Muhammad's men also took out weapons to drive away the children.

Soram looked at the fierce child in front of him, and couldn't imagine that this guy was a poor orphan.

At this moment, the commotion they made still alarmed the soldiers who had been patrolling on the side, and a small group of soldiers who looked like a captain came to Solam's side. After seeing the kid in Solam's hand, he was immediately furious!

"Digron! It's you kid again! Didn't I warn you? Theft is not allowed in this area. ”

Soram saw that a soldier was coming, and he was not interested in carrying this kid anymore, so he threw the kid out, but Soram still didn't intend to hurt him, so he used skill, and after the kid was thrown out, he rolled on the ground a few times, and he didn't suffer any injuries.

After the kid got up, he glared at Soram with a grim face, which meant that sooner or later Soram would look good, and Soram was so angry and funny to see that such a little kid actually threatened him!

"Get out of here immediately, don't get me in trouble again!" The captain-like soldier saw that Soram was not going to pursue it like this, so he warned the little guy named Digon.

"Cut! This is our territory! We can come as soon as we want! Can you handle it? The boy didn't pay any attention to the soldier's warning, but said very arrogantly.

"If you have any complaints, you can find our boss."

This seemed to anger the soldier, and he rushed over and kicked the kid in the abdomen, kicking the kid directly away, and at the same time scolding: "Huh? Do the thugs really think of themselves as guilds? Get out! By the way, tell Jaber that if there is a next time, then he will spend the rest of his life in a prison cell. ”

The so-called guild is the official name of the gangster, in Kalinshan, the guild is legal, and the gangster is illegal, so many big gangsters simply register as a guild in order to prevent people from making trouble for them in the official face.

After becoming a guild, basically no one in the official face will trouble them, but they must pay a certain amount of taxes to the kingdom every year. These taxes are nothing to those big guilds, but for those small gangsters, it is a lot of money.

The good gangsters who really mix in Port Carlin will apply to become a guild, but a gang of gangsters who rely on children to make money can only be regarded as the lowest gangsters, they not only need to pay protection money to the guild on their heads, but also give benefits to government agencies such as the security forces, so the soldier didn't pay attention to the boss of this group of gangsters at all.

After the kid was kicked away, he didn't do anything drastic, just gave the soldier a hard look, and then ran away with a group of children.

After watching the children run away, Muhammad came up and gave the soldier a gold coin as a thank you to him, and the soldier left satisfied.

"Lord Solam, you must pay attention in the future, here, no matter how pitiful those people are, don't be soft-hearted, those guys are inhumane, I don't know how many well-wishers are killed by them every year."

Muhammad said to Soram with a little seriousness, although he said so, in fact, Muhammad was relieved in his heart, it seems that Soram is not a bad person, for Muhammad, such a person is good to be a backer, otherwise a cruel and unkind spellcaster, it will be too late for him to escape.

What can Soram say? He didn't expect this place to be so sinister, and a child could do this.
