Chapter 877: Chapter 672: Introduction
Su Mo pondered for a mont and then replied to the Fake Owner·Swallower: “Anyway, there’s still plenty of ti, let’s take it slow and explore. Who knows, there might be surprises, and if not, there’s always the chanical Pillar. It’s not like the stuff sold by the chanical Pillar is trash, right.”
“The stuff sold by the chanical Pillar does have so good things, but can you afford them?”
“Haha, listen to you, we’re quite well off, you know.”
Su Mo responded with a wry smile.
“Tch!”
The Fake Owner·Swallower replied disdainfully.
…
Just as Su Mo and the Fake Owner·Swallower were discussing where to shop for the best value.
Suddenly, a commotion and exclamations could be heard not far away.
Su Mo turned his head to see a cool blue third-generation cha gracefully landing at the interstellar port.
Imdiately, it attracted countless envious and jealous glances.
“Wow, that’s so cool! A third-generation cha!”
“And it’s the kind with a permit.”
“Totally a golden bachelor!”
“Who says it’s a golden bachelor? Can’t it be a rich woman? Why do you discriminate against won?”
“I think gender isn’t important, no need to be so rigid about it!”
…
Even Su Mo felt a bit tempted, and he communicated with the Fake Owner·Swallower: “What do you think if I buy a Pure chanical IV Generation cha? For self-defense and commuting, it would be super useful.”
“Suit yourself, but I must warn you, the world of pure chanical chas is deeper than you think, don’t buy a bunch of junk back.”
The Fake Owner·Swallower replied coldly.
“Calm down, don’t worry, I’ll definitely buy sothing good. Anyway, we’re rich now, although I’m just not sure how easy it is to get that permit they ntioned.”
Su Mo replied with growing anticipation.
“With money, anything is possible. If you have enough Star Coins, you could arm a legion that sweeps across Star Ring City in one night; here, money is everything.”
The Fake Owner·Swallower said deeply.
“Alright, although it’s a bit exaggerated, it seems true. You say, how rich must the owner of Star Ring City be? If I didn’t already have Xue’er in my heart, I’d really think about clinging to them, living off soone else, haha.”
As Su Mo chatted with the Fake Owner·Swallower, he walked forward.
“Hmph, keep dreaming. Also, don’t think about these issues with a narrow mindset. A presence of this level won’t be backed by just one person, and naturally, it doesn’t belong to a single individual. Let briefly explain the composition of Star Ring City and so unspoken rules. The entire Star Ring City is divided into five rings; the Inner First Ring is forbidden, only the real Sovereign of Star Ring City can enter, and anyone who intrudes is sentenced to death! It’s sowhat similar to your high walls.”
“Understood.”
Su Mo nodded slightly.
“The Inner Second Ring is the top residential area, the place everyone like you dreams of. As you say, living there is like living in Heaven, but of course, you’d need money.”
The Fake Owner·Swallower replied deeply.
“Is it very expensive?”
Su Mo asked with great curiosity.
“Every square ter is calculated in tens of millions of Star Coins.”
The Fake Owner·Swallower replied deeply.
“That’s daylight robbery! You know, even a compensation claim from the Demun Empire is just three billion Star Coins. That ans you could at most buy three hundred square ters, no, actually you can’t even buy three hundred square ters.”
Su Mo was also shocked by the price.
“That’s the price, if you think it’s too expensive, you can choose not to buy. The Inner Third Ring, which is where we’re heading now, is all a comrcial street, filled with businesses, and the price of shops and buildings is equally exorbitant. But fortunately, you can rent; the rent isn’t particularly high.”
The Fake Owner·Swallower explained deeply.
“Alright, forgotten I said anything.”
Su Mo showed a face full of helplessness.
The Fake Owner·Swallower continued to introduce: “The Fourth Ring belongs to the lower-class residential area, a mix of all sorts. Survivors of the previous Heavenly Cups mostly live there; don’t go there when there’s nothing to do. You should know those survivors have been barely surviving for so long in Star Ring City, their money must be almost gone, and they’ll do anything to survive. As for the remaining Five Rings Area, that’s where the port area you are currently in is, controlled by major forces.”
Hearing this, Su Mo’s expression grew somber.
“The way you put it, this city does feel like it would chew people up and spit them out.”
“Tsk tsk, I told you a long ti ago, Star Ring City is just a hypocrite. Do you know what’s the most cruel? It is giving hope to the desperate, only to snuff out their hopes with your own hands.”
The Fake Owner·Swallower said coldly.
Su Mo rubbed his forehead, also showing a face full of helplessness.
…..
After a long while, Su Mo arrived at the Third Ring Comrcial Street, and it was as lively as ever.
Everywhere there were people setting up stalls and hawking their goods.
Su Mo walked past while observing.
The items for sale were still all sorts of things, but the prices weren’t expensive, just a few hundred Star Coins, with the most expensive ones only costing tens of thousands of Star Coins.
Stuff sold in the shops along the street tended to be pricier.
Su Mo entered a relatively large store.
At that mont, a very sexy woman dressed in a low-cut outfit approached with a bright smile.
“What can I get for you, sir? We have everything you could need, whether it’s dicine or weapons.”
