"Yeah." Tu Ran responded in a low voice, grabbed her sleeve, and pulled her to cleverly blend into the crowd on the street.

Most of the people coming and going were in black robes, with a few strange-looking, non-human species that did not cover their faces. Among them were people with green eyes, and some others that Tu Ran had never seen before. They all looked ferocious without exception. The area within a two-meter radius with them as the center was a vacuum zone.

The two of them were dressed in black robes and blended in perfectly.

"Those who don't hide their true abilities are extremely confident in their own abilities." Tang Ying lowered her voice so that only Tu Ran could hear it.

The two men followed the crowd. The thousands of caves in the towering magic cave buildings on both sides of the road made noisy calls to attract guests, which masked their conversation.

A monster with a red body and several bumps on its head was walking towards us, and its walking posture was similar to that of a human.

Tu Ran and Tang Ying walked past him without even looking at him. After they had walked some distance, Tang Ying spoke, "He should belong to another race that has a greater say in the ruling world, the Red-capped Clan, with the color of dragon fruit." Tang Ying added nonchalantly.

Tu Ran: "...You are really good at metaphors."

One green grape and one dragon fruit.

Tang Ying did not deny it and continued to explain to her, "The rulers have a total of three native races, which are the three races with the most say. The green grapes mentioned earlier are one of them, the dragon fruit just now, and there is a water blue one, which is said to be like an elf."

Tu Ran heard this and thought: Blue... elves? In short, the world of rulers was a little different from what she had imagined before.

While explaining, Tang Ying raised her head and looked around, trying to find corresponding aqua blue examples to help Tu Ran better understand.

Unfortunately, all you see at a glance are black robes, and no one knows what color is underneath the black robes.

Not finding it, she could only say dryly, "The aqua-blue race is relatively low-key, sticks to tradition, doesn't like war, and doesn't support the idea of ​​the other two races to merge the universe. They may be a breakthrough."

Tu Ran nodded and took note of it silently.

"These three are native races. There must be non-native races, not from this world, but can survive in this world..." Tu Ran frowned and thought for a while, "Could it be other worlds that have been occupied?"

"Yes." Tang Ying gave her an affirmative answer.

"As long as you can prove your absolute safety to two of the three ruling races, you can settle in Junction City."

Why it is two out of the three races? You can guess it without any brains. Of course, it is because the Smurf race has never agreed with the fusion of the universe from the beginning to the end, and they will not pass these messy proposals.

What made Tu Ran even more curious was, "Absolutely safe? How can this be proved?"

"The garrison, the army of the ruler world will be stationed in their world, and the army of the native world will be disbanded, leaving only a small-scale order maintenance team."

"Hand over management rights. 80% of the management positions in the local world are given to the ruling race, and the remaining 20% ​​are low-level management departments."

Tang Ying's voice was low and cold. Amidst the glaring advertising signs and noisy calls to solicit customers, Tu Ran heard every word.

"The last one is technological isolation. Every world that submits to the ruler will be reduced to the ruler's factory. They can only develop technologies related to related industries. All technologies unrelated to this will be restricted to a low level. Once a world is found to violate any of these three points, that world will suffer a catastrophic disaster."

Tu Ran pursed her lips, a deep feeling of powerlessness enveloping her.

Aren't these just unfair terms? Very tasteless, and the rulers are greedy, but there are so many worlds willing to do so. Tu Ran sighed secretly, because the rulers are strong, they not only have the ambition to rule the universe, but also the ability to rule the universe. They dare to name themselves rulers, and they firmly believe that no matter what kind of unfair terms they set, there will be worlds willing to submit to them.

"Will those worlds that did not agree to such unfair terms be destroyed like S. Erso?" Tu Ran walked with heavy steps.

Tang Ying nodded: "If nothing unexpected happens, yes."

Tu Ran raised her eyes again and looked at the various figures passing by through the edge of the hood.

They belong to different worlds, different species, and have different identities and statuses. However, because of an ambitious race, the technology of their homeland has been completely locked up, with no possibility of development, and it has become a back garden where the rulers can continuously exploit resources.

Tang Ying grabbed Tu Ran's arm and led her away from the original trajectory. A red dragon fruit monster walked past their previous position with great momentum. A man in black robe was just a little close to him and failed to dodge in time, so the dragon fruit monster swung out a ball of fire, wrapping the man's entire body.

The man in black robe quickly took off his black robe, and threw the burning robe at the feet of Tu Ran and Tang Ying, then he stared at the dragon fruit monster fiercely.

Tu Ran and Tang Ying didn't look away, didn't stay for long, walked around the fire and left.

Only after they walked far away did Tang Ying look back. There were balls of fire dancing in the direction they left, and it looked like the battle was very fierce.

She looked back and said to Tu Ran, "These worlds that were forced to submit are definitely not kind to their rulers. The ruling races come here without disguise and completely expose themselves, which is equivalent to deliberately attracting hatred. If they were not too strong, they would not be able to go beyond two miles."

"Won't anyone be in charge? There's a fight here." Tu Ran looked around. There was no team maintaining order. Instead, rows of heads popped out from the holes with signs hanging on the buildings in the magic cave, watching the fun.

"It is said that there is a city lord in Border City, who is a representative selected from many surrendered worlds to manage the order of the entire Border City... In this case, he should be able to take care of it." Tang Ying was not very clear about this specific information, as S. Erso's broadcast did not go into details at this level.

…

"No matter! Whoever wants to care can care! If you dare to enter the Border City, you should have known that life and death are irrelevant."

…

Tu Ran half closed her eyes, and several routes flashed through her mind, leading to different directions.

It includes the location of the city's administrators, underground black markets, currency exchange offices, information exchange locations, etc.

Tu Ran just used her "sense of direction". She needed to find a place where she could quickly understand the world.

Or find a human whose memory she can read.

Tu Ran picked out the one with the strongest sense from the many colorful routes in her mind. After using "sense of direction" many times, Tu Ran also had some experience. Generally, after activating "sense of direction", the stronger the sense, the closer the location is to her.

Directly ahead.

Overlapping their original direction, Tu Ran sped up.

Tang Ying followed her closely.

Although she didn't know where Tu Ran was going, Tu Ran didn't explain to her.

Their two black figures quickly disappeared in the crowd.

The 52nd floor of a magic cave building facing this street.

An abrupt sound was heard in the luxurious cave.

"Tsk, there's trouble in the city." I couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman, but the impatience in his tone was obvious.

The graceful woman, who was leaning against the window with her chin propped up and looking down, looked back, her fox-like eyes fixed on an electronic screen on the wall.

The red values ​​are particularly eye-catching.

"It's been a while since I've seen a species with a warning value of level five." Her voice was just like her eyes, teasing everything. She was also a little curious, "Where did she come from?

"North."

An androgynous voice came from a bright blue ball suspended from the ceiling.

"Hmm?" The woman raised the corner of her narrow eye, "The green-eyed people don't look like this."

The blue ball fluctuated up and down twice, and was shocked. "No... She is from another world, a world that has never been conquered by a ruler!"

The woman curled her lips and looked back downstairs. Bright fireballs were flying around. She watched the fun and said casually, "That's a lot. Your rusty brain can't handle such a heavy workload. Don't think about it. Love whoever you want. It has nothing to do with us."

Obviously, the blue ball of light was not going to listen to her. The blue light kept flashing and became weaker and weaker.

The woman turned around and glanced at it indifferently, cursed it as "You're so stubborn", and then stopped looking at it. She supported her chin and looked disinterestedly at the two sides below who were fighting more and more fiercely.

There were already quite a few passers-by gathered around them.

The woman couldn't help but mutter, "Why isn't this over yet? Someone's going to die soon. If it gets any bigger, I won't be able to handle it anymore."

The light ball responded with a painful voice, "I, I can't see clearly... There are too many. She has been to too many worlds, all of which are worlds that have not been occupied by rulers!"

Hearing this, the woman looked back and lifted a strand of her hair to play with it. "She is a little thing with a complicated background."

She slowly walked to the bottom of the light ball and raised her head slightly. The light ball illuminated her face. "Qiuqiu, what do you think? Should I report her? This is a great achievement. There will be no one else to be the next city lord."

The light ball obviously agreed with her decision. The light on its body brightened by two degrees. "Should we catch her now? She just arrived and is not familiar with the environment. It's easy for her to-"

"I changed my mind," the woman took a step back and sat down, sinking her whole body into the sofa, "I don't want to catch her anymore, let's just keep it for fun."

"City Lord! She is in danger!" The light ball couldn't help but remind.

The woman leaned back comfortably on the sofa, closed her eyes, rubbed her temples, and opened and closed her red lips. "Level 5 alert, it's not just our Junction City that's in danger. The ones we should worry about are those guys who claim to be the rulers. I expect me to catch someone they can't catch? Ha, ridiculous."

The ball of light seemed to have gotten used to the woman's capriciousness. It deliberately let out a loud "sigh" to express its emotions, then threw itself against the wall, its body pressed tightly against it, and the blue light went out.

The sleeping woman suddenly thought of something, sat up, and stared at the slug stuck to the wall, "Are your eyes still working? I've used them for two hundred years, don't make a mistake, you made me so happy for nothing."

Fatty Ball: "...If I am wrong, our Hundred-Eyed Elves would not have been worshipped by you Wuma Star for 20,000 years."

The woman muttered, "I hope so," and lay back on the sofa, closing her eyes.

Just when Fatty was about to take a break, the woman's voice rang out, "Keep an eye on the two people fighting down there. If anyone else gets involved, call the security team to take care of them."

The light on the fat ball suddenly lit up and started working.

…

Tu Ran followed the route in her mind and walked to an interstellar chain pawn shop.

The names of the shops were written in the language of Green Eyes. Tu Ran had transformed into Green Eyes before, so she was no stranger to their language.

This shop should be able to exchange the currency in circulation in this city.

But Tu Ran and Tang Ying did not go in immediately.

They stood in the shadows opposite the shop, looking at the open door of the shop and the black-robed people coming in and out, and glanced at each other tacitly.

This is Green Eyes’ sphere of influence.

The two of them had just escaped from Green Eyes, so it would be risky to go in.

Just when Tu Ran closed her eyes and prepared to find another good place, a "gurgling" sound came from behind them.
