Chapter 7 (2/2)

Soon, a bloodstain was seen on the ground. With the galloping of the carriage, it went farther and farther, and became more and more red, just like a child's wayward graffiti.

Even the brutal gangsters could not bear to be seen and turned their attention one after another.

Wei Ran stood in the middle of the carriage and stared at the female slave. He didn't know how she endured. He miraculously didn't shout until he died!

Rao, the Scorpion King, was interested in observing Wei Ran's face for a while, and then smashed his tongue to see the dragged female slave.

Finally, she shook her head discontentedly, ”I thought she would scream sadly... It's really meaningless. Well, get out of the neutral zone. In front is the checkpoint set up by the Spanish. Don't let them see this. Quickly cut the rope. ”

After the rope was cut, the female slave stayed on the road forever.

Wei Ran sat back in his seat, leaned against the carriage and closed his eyes, but anyone could feel the volcano in his heart.

The carriage stopped at the checkpoint. The Scorpion King got off with a flag and met the soldiers at the checkpoint. It seemed that he had bribed a lot of money.

After getting on the bus, he kept swearing, ”damn Spanish soldiers, cunning than foxes and greedy than hyenas! In addition to paying taxes, each of them wants a gold coin! Why don't you rob? ”

Wei Ran thought to himself that when he left the neutral zone and went to a colony of a country, he needed to pay extra taxes, and he might have to be blackmailed by rogue soldiers. Well, if I want to go out on my first day, I must encounter such a thing. I have no money, but I can't do anything.

Later, in the Scorpion King's self-talk and neurotic nagging, Wei Ran finally understood the basic situation of this chaotic area.

Each country sets up checkpoints within its own colonies, taxes businessmen, and maintains public security in the colonies. Another purpose is to prevent those unidentified people in neutral areas from entering the colonies of various countries at will.

As for why we should guard against people in neutral areas, the Scorpion King's words did not mention it.

As long as the neutral area is outside the port city of Alvarado, the surrounding suburbs are the default war zones of all countries.

Because although all countries have not affirmed their sovereignty over this place, it does not prevent them from coveting this port city.

It was only because of the balance of power and did not want a war that troops were not sent to occupy. However, it has never given up some low-intensity military operations. Usually, the hunting soldiers wandering here fight against Scouts or soldiers of other countries, and will not waste bullets on people from neutral cities.

But the soldiers who went to the colonies to participate in the war could not count on their moral quality. Maybe they were just a prank and would kill a person.

Especially those who walk alone in the wilderness are most likely to be the victims of other people's pranks.

Usually, people traveling in groups on horseback or in carriages like this will not be maliciously attacked.

Now that we have entered the checkpoint, we have entered the Spanish colony. The security situation is many times better than that in the neutral area.

Wei Ran took part in the boxing match in a Spanish controlled colonial city called Traco.

Wei Ran is not interested in it. What he is interested in is that the boxing match was held underground by businessmen from many countries, that is to say, he had the opportunity to meet ”fellow villagers” here.
