The two of them carried their own supplies on their backs and walked through the wilderness, while using their tools to constantly clear away the weeds blocking the way. Qianlong has rich experience walking ahead, judging the direction while walking, and occasionally adjusting the route to move forward.

Tang Zhen couldn't help but ask, "Do you usually judge directions this way? Do you have any maps or compasses

Qianlong shook his head helplessly and said, "Maps are very unreliable, and they are extremely expensive and difficult to obtain. Except for some fixed places, other places are constantly changing, such as the wild grass under my feet. Even if you set it on fire, it will still return to its original state the next day. On the originally empty grassland, a large number of buildings may emerge at some point. Ordinary compasses are also useless. After taking them out, they will only keep spinning and cannot determine the direction at all

Ultimately, in this environment, only experience is the most trustworthy.

After walking and stopping all the way, when they were really tired, they sat down to rest for a while. As it was getting dark, the two finally arrived at a narrow path.

The path seems to be frequented by people, so wild grass cannot grow.

Qianlong told Tang Zhen that walking along this road will lead to a tower city.

This building city is called Black Rock City, with strong strength, and the main building has a total of twenty floors. There are four annex buildings around the main building, with a height of 20 meters and divided into five floors, which are considered the main defense components of the main building.

There is a powerful army stationed on the floor, responsible for guarding the safety of the building city.

Near the outskirts of Lou Cheng, there is a small town established by homeless people who not only earn wealth for Lou Cheng, but also indirectly enjoy the protection of Lou Cheng. The wanderers trade goods and information here, while waiting for the opportunity to join the building city.

Because after dark, monsters will come out and wander in groups, and their numbers will mysteriously increase significantly. If unlucky, they may even appear out of thin air. So the two of them quickened their pace and finally arrived at the market before nightfall.

Tang Zhen looked at this homeless town from a distance and found that it was built on a hillside, covering a very vast area. The wild grass within a few kilometers around the gathering place has been cleared, and the view is very broad.

The wall built with giant stones and logs appears very sturdy, with a height definitely exceeding five meters. There are also many armed wanderers patrolling on it.

The two of them rushed slowly and finally entered the small town at the last moment before it closed its doors. After paying two brain beads each, they were allowed by the guards to enter the town freely for a month.

The Wanderer Town has a large area, covering several hectares, like a rudimentary fortress!

Unfortunately, this is not a building city allowed by the laws of heaven, and we do not enjoy any convenience that building cities have. However, there are pros and cons to everything, because once a building city is established, these homeless people who have not obtained resident qualifications will not be able to enter it, and the owners of the homeless town will lose a large amount of wealth income.

If we want to include all the homeless people taken in by the market as residents, then the level of the building city must be very high, but every level of the building city requires countless resources. Moreover, during the upgrade of the building city, every time it is attacked by monsters, once the defense fails, all previous efforts will be in vain.

By investing countless resources and exerting all one's efforts, there is a possibility of losing everything in the end. In contrast, running a small town for wanderers is naturally more carefree. And once monsters attack, the Wanderer Town can also provide a large number of combatants and form the first line of defense.

I believe that Black Rock City also established this homeless town near Lou City out of this consideration.

The only downside is that monsters will occasionally attack here, and the guarding work every night feels like a battle of offense and defense. Ordinary monsters can be easily dealt with, but if unlucky enough to encounter powerful monsters, the town is likely to suffer a catastrophic disaster.

However, wanderers have limited choices, and sometimes they know it's not ideal, but they can only grit their teeth and do it.

This is the truth of survival, you must adapt to life and destiny, but let life and destiny accommodate you!

The controllers of the homeless town also have a group of armed forces in their hands, and soldiers wearing simple armor with serious and indifferent expressions can be seen on the streets from time to time, staring at every homeless person they see with bright eyes.

Tang Zhen carefully observed the weapons and equipment of these soldiers and found that most of the weapons were of average quality, and the armor only protected important areas, not knowing if it could block the piercing and slashing of swords and knives.

But compared to those wanderers who only carry short knives and iron bars, with scattered metal and wooden pieces as armor, these soldiers are already well-equipped.

In the evening, there are still many homeless people active in the market, either coming in and out of some rudimentary houses or gathering near the fire pit to chat. In addition, there are some homeless people holding weapons who have been hired by the market and are standing solemnly on the walls of the market, guarding against possible monsters that may attack.

Not far from the Wanderer's Market, a huge building city with a vast area stands in the darkness, looking like a ferocious monster.

As long as the wanderers in the market raise their heads, they can see the faint light emanating from the windows of the building city. Their eyes are mostly filled with longing, as if they are fantasizing about one day being able to live inside and end this tumultuous and painful life.

A commotion came, and Tang Zhen followed the sound and saw that there was a group of monsters trying to attack the market. After more than ten minutes, the monster was defeated under the obstruction of the guards, leaving behind many corpses before escaping from here.

When the sun rises tomorrow, these monsters will have their brains removed and their bodies cleared by wandering scavengers.

If you look carefully outside this moment, you will find that there are still many monsters wandering outside the town. They still tried to attack here, but fearing the flames and swords of the wanderers, they were reluctant to leave and could only let out bursts of roar in frustration.

Qianlong is very familiar with this place. He leads the way ahead and leads Tang Zhen into a large two-story adobe building.

This is one of the cheaper hotels in the town, looking low and dim, with an extremely strange smell permeating the air.

Behind the wooden counter in front of the fire pit, a woman with a clean appearance and a hint of charm sat there, accompanied by two strong men holding wooden cups and drinking inferior wine.

After seeing Tang Zhen and his two companions, the two strong men looked at them a few times before ignoring them.

Two people, stay for three days

One person has half a level one brain bead per day, providing two meals, and three level one brain beads per three days. Pay for it, two handsome guys

As the daughter spoke, she leaned forward and revealed her white chest. As she moved, an unfathomable ravine appeared before the two of them, with a faint scent of flesh wafting in.

Tang Zhen glanced at the woman without saying a word, and Qianlong also paid attention to her flirtatious eyes and teasing, nodding expressionlessly.

After paying three first level brain beads as accommodation fees, the two of them also received a piece of coarse grain cake and wild vegetable soup for dinner, which is the daily food share provided to guests by the hotel. After finishing dinner, the two of them each entered a narrow, dark, and smelly small house to rest.

Lying on the board covered with dry grass, Tang Zhen calmed down and examined the surrounding environment before taking out the pocket containing his brain beads. Slowly put these brain beads and the phone together, as he expected, the brain beads were instantly absorbed by the phone.

As the absorption of the brain beads was completed, a new change appeared on his phone screen. Under the teleportation icon, a number of '200AA' is displayed, indicating that the total number of coins he possesses can be teleported back and forth more than 200 times!

In his personal information, the total amount of gold coins has reached over 13000, which is enough to excite him. He really wanted to try downloading some software immediately, but for security reasons, he decided to try sending it back home first.

I held the bag containing cash and precious metals in my hand and flipped it over to the teleportation option on my phone. He carefully clicked on the icon and attempted to activate the teleportation function. In an instant, a flower bloomed before his eyes, and he felt as if he had passed through a tunnel. Tang Zhen smoothly returned to his home.

After carefully examining the surroundings and confirming that this was his own home, Tang Zhen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This journey is so thrilling and eerie that even if you tell others, no one will believe it. Of course, Tang Zhen would never tell anyone, after all, it concerns his family and life.

Since he has returned home, Tang Zhen can confidently take out his phone and try it out. Firstly, he clicked on the teleportation option and confirmed that each teleportation would consume five level one brain beads.

If converted into gold coins, it should be fifty gold coins, and it takes one hundred gold coins to teleport back and forth for a while.

Then he opened the app store and began selecting the software he needed.

When making his selection, he carefully screened and concluded that there are currently four functions that are most suitable for him. At this point, the types are primary maps that can display terrain and monsters within a radius of 100 meters around them.

Fundus projection, visible screen image projected to the front of the eye, and can be operated by sensing the phone.

Junior monster explorer, capable of displaying monster information up to level three of the owner's level.

Micro storage space can open up a dimensional space with a storage volume of one cubic meter.

If all four applications are downloaded, the coins he just obtained will be depleted, but compared to his life and fortune, these investments are nothing, and these applications can also help him survive better and safer in the other world.

After clicking to confirm the download, the coins in the account were quickly deducted, and after a few breaths, all four software were installed. Watching the originally empty phone screen finally being filled with a piece, Tang Zhen suddenly felt much more at ease in his heart.
