Chapter 2 Dark Street



The next morning, Jin Yu was woken up by the cold.

When he tried to see everything around him with blurry eyes, his sleepiness disappeared in an instant. He jumped up from the ground in a panic, and looked at the machine that was building the house for a long time without saying a word, his fingers trembling.

"Hey, the boy is awake."

A very familiar voice sounded, Jin Yu looked to the side, and his fingers trembled again.

The old man who was wearing a tattered shirt and a rocking chair, and looked antique no matter how you looked at him yesterday, is now wearing a finely crafted Tang suit, leaning on a cane that looks like sandalwood, looking exactly like an old master from a wealthy family.

"...So you were experiencing life yesterday?" Jin Yu swallowed, his attitude completely different from yesterday's shameless attitude.

"Haha, we are destined to meet. That house is where I started to make my fortune after I fell to the bottom. Even though my grandson has inherited it and expanded it, I am reluctant to tear down this thatched cottage inn. Yesterday was the last night, and I had planned to spend my days reminiscing about it alone. Who knew that even on its last day, it welcomed a guest, which was a happy ending." The old man sighed and glanced at the empty space without a single straw, then turned to Jin Yu and smiled, "It's a good relationship. I'm in a good mood, so I'll give you a purple crystal coin. Go and start a business! Haha, based on your shameless attitude yesterday, I think you will definitely achieve great things!"

As the old man spoke, he nodded to Jin Yu. A bodyguard-like figure behind him stepped forward and threw a purple crystal coin to Jin Yu. When the latter hurriedly caught it, the old man, surrounded by a group of people, walked towards the towering "Longmen Hotel" opposite.

Jin Yu looked at the old man and suddenly felt touched. He opened his mouth, waved his hand and shouted at the old man's back: "Hey! Old man, you are too stingy! What can you do with one purple crystal coin?! But don't worry, I, Jin Yu, have always been a gentleman who repays what I borrow. Within a year, I will return you one thousand purple crystal coins! If you don't give me more, I will pay you back a thousand times in the future!!"

The old man walking in front couldn't help shaking his head and laughing when he heard Jin Yu's shout. This kid is really something. He can even come up with such a creative way of talking about borrowing money to make a fortune. Looking at his grandson who came to greet him with a cold face and no expression, the old man suddenly sighed. In comparison, the young man's face was much more handsome than his grandson, although his grandson was more handsome than 90% of the people.

"grandfather."

"Well, okay, let's go back. After today, I will truly retire."

"Yes." Upon hearing that, the young man stepped forward, supported the old man, and walked into the hotel without looking back.

It was not until the door of Longmen Hotel was completely closed that Jin Yu came to his senses and let out a deep sigh.

Looking at the pomp and circumstance just now, he probably won't be able to get there in his lifetime. But he won't be envious, jealous or hateful. He is content with a small fortune, and he is content with a small fortune. He ran from a place where he could die at any time to this relatively safe place. As long as he has food and shelter, he is very satisfied.

So Jin Yu began to cheer up and walked towards the public notice square that he had inquired about yesterday. In the public notice square, there were two kinds of notice screens, one for recruitment of living professions and the other for the release of exploration tasks. In those notice screens, it was claimed that every citizen could find a job and task that met his requirements.

So Jin Yu went there with great excitement, but became depressed after seeing the contents on the screen.

What are those numbers on it? Why do all job postings have those numbers?

Jin Yu's IQ is definitely not low, and it can even be said that it is slightly higher than most people, so after reading it once, he is completely sure that the damn number with crosses and circles is something like the citizen ID card of his world! !

Jin Yu was so heartbroken and miserable after confirming this. His exotic animal nanny, his exotic animal psychologist, his life of contentment with a small fortune! Damn, gone forever!

Jin Yu is well aware of the dangers of being an "illegal resident" in another world. This means that he is not protected by any government, cannot look for a job in an upright manner, and has an 80% chance of joining the underworld...

Well, in this place where almost everyone is a hunter, there are probably very few gangs, but there is no guarantee that there are no gangster organizations. After all, human nature is such that even if the genes mutate, they will stubbornly stick to one side.

With a deep sigh, Jin Yu sat listlessly on a stone bench in the public notice square in a daze, looking at those people and strange beasts who were rushing around shouting and roaring to get tasks and work from time to time, which made his heart even more desolate.

"What a tragedy... What a great tragedy..."

Just when Jin Yu couldn't help but sigh about his life, suddenly a discussion caught his attention.

"Tsk, there's nothing good on the trading list this month. I've been looking for the feather of a light horse for more than three months! It turns out that all the things on the public square are rip-offs!" A man with fiery red hair and a seemingly hot temper spoke indignantly.

"Tsk, isn't this something we've known for a long time? Instead of looking for treasures in the Public Square, you might as well go to the Hunters' Association or the Explorers' Association. Even though the prices there are a bit higher, they're definitely not like this Official Square where all the things are designed to cheat beginners." A tall, yellow-haired man nearby shook his head.

"The problem is that I've already checked those two places. I finally got a feather of a light horse, but as soon as it came out, it was bought by someone at a high price. What can I do? Should I rob it? Those people look like tough guys. I haven't lived enough!" said the red-haired man depressedly.

"Tsk, if that's the case, why don't you go to the Dark Street and have a look?" The tall man thought for a moment and suddenly lowered his voice and said, "My cousin is a student at the Hunting Academy, right? He once overheard a conversation between his coach and said that there are quite a lot of good things in the Dark Street, and even many good things in the Hunter Association and the Exploration Association come from there! Although the Dark Street is very dangerous without identity protection, you should give it a try."

The red-haired man's expression changed slightly after hearing the word "Dark Street". He then shook his head with a bitter smile, "You actually said Dark Street... That place is not as simple as you think. Even if you let me wait another year, I will not go there. In my opinion, before your strength reaches the fourth-level hunting or fifth-level exploration, that place is hell."

At this time, Jin Yu, who was originally sitting not far from the two men, had disappeared without a trace. Even before the red-haired man spoke, he had already rushed towards the street excitedly as if he had been injected with chicken blood, and started a new round of inquiries about the location of the dark street.

However, if Jin Yu could be a little calmer and listen to the red-haired man's words, perhaps he would not have acted so excitedly.

But we have to say that people's desire for food is too great. Although Jin Yu is not a natural foodie, he has begun to evolve towards the path of a foodie during the one-month hell life. For the new foodie Jin Yu, nothing can be more attractive than a place where he can get jobs directly based on his ability without looking at his ID card.

So, three hours later, when Jin Yu stood in front of the huge street gate made of black crystal and the two big characters "Dark Street" written in the same material and like cursive script, he felt that his life would soon be complete.

So Jin Yu, who was full of expectations, did not hesitate at all when he stepped into the dark street.

So, when he entered the dark street and saw the scene that came into his eyes, he realized with great tragedy that, as a sub-human and the ancestor of the new human race, in this place full of monsters bigger than humans and mutated superhumans, he was really very vulnerable... right? !
