MTL - Night Hacker-Chapter 69 fist stone
Chapter 69 Fist Stone
It has been three days since the blockade of the boxing area, and Elizabeth still found nothing.
That night, she took people to Crazy Battle Street first, because the landmark of the boxing district "Fist Stone Square" is there.
In the middle of the square is a natural boulder shaped like a fist. It is 31 meters high and 16 meters in circumference. The stone is full of red and has been eroded by the wind. It looks like a huge broken blood fist. The buildings are all low.
She was all about the "Sword in the Stone", of course she came to see the fist stone for the first time, but it was still just a big rock.
It was the morning of the fourth day of the treasure hunt. It rained for several days in the whole city. Today the rain stopped, but the sky was still gray.
Elizabeth came to the fist stone square again, standing in front of this majestic fist stone.
Crazy Battle Street was once again in a state of total blockade, and the dilapidated buildings and shops were all silent, without the usual hustle and bustle. Some Seth security personnel are deployed and patrolling around, and they are more vigilant than in the Xuanyuan area, which is full of assassins.
"Miss Elizabeth, it's the fourth day."
For the past few days, the old mama has been following her, and walking in a nun's clothes doesn't fit anywhere. "The boxing area can't be blocked all the time. It has caused a lot of economic losses in the past few days. The time for you at home is five days. Blockade, Treasure hunts are all.”
The old lady paused and said, "And you will need to be responsible for this matter."
"I know." Elizabeth muttered, without saying much, watching the fist stone gradually lost her mind.
Master, master, where is the treasure...
No, we can't rely on luck like this aimlessly.
The answer should have been in the master's guidance, she needs to find out by herself.
Elizabeth is familiar with the human history of all twenty-nine districts of Liuguang City, but much of this knowledge is limited to books.
The boxing area was originally named because of this boxing stone.
At the beginning, the Boxing District was not what it is now. It was just a new settlement in Liuguang City, gathering those new immigrants and stowaways who went east. But soon, as the master said, the name has the power of psychological suggestion.
Fist stone and boxing area all gave a hint.
The boxing stone shapes the temperament here, and the name of the boxing area attracts those brave and ruthless.
Up to now, the boxing area has already had its own cultural style and regional economy.
If the Xuanyuan District is a place of revelry, the Boxing District is a place of violence.
There are weapons shops everywhere, selling all kinds of weapons, and some underground illegal shops also sell firearms.
Elizabeth has spent half of the past few days shopping in the streets and wasteland, and the other half in the weapons store... Even some underground illegal shops, except for making the shopkeepers nervous, nothing special was found.
These stores could have been arrested and shut down by the Metropolitan Police Department, but the Metropolitan Police Department said that this would destroy the "ecological balance".
The more she wandered, the more she understood what the current situation was.
If it really follows the law, the entire boxing area should be swept away, and nine out of ten people will be arrested.
She hopes to have a big cleanup, not just the boxing area, but the whole city, not just the streets, but the whole society.
But now, she can't ask for anything, she just looks around and has more different insights.
Xuanyuan District brought that kind of insight, and Boxing District brought this kind of insight. These are all things that cannot be brought in the Acropolis mountain area, garden area, central area, etc. She thought that it was necessary for her to walk through the streets of all districts in the city to conduct a comprehensive survey.
Perhaps...this insight is a treasure?
"Elizabeth."
Suddenly, another familiar female voice pulled Elizabeth back from her thoughts.
She looked back and saw that it was Sophia. There were more security guards from Gasboyne in the square, but they didn't follow.
Different from her coat, jeans, and sneakers, Sophia is wearing a black tunic dress, high heels with jewels, a brown leather handbag, and tulle gloves on both hands, like a young lady who just came out of a party.
This is not the style of the boxing area, and it is obviously not intended to respect the culture of the boxing area "you must be bare-handed when you get to the boxing stone".
Elizabeth knew that when she was in school, Sophia was also very familiar with the humanities of various districts. This was intentional...
"How is it, did you find anything?" Sophia walked over with a smile, "I heard it's the last two days."
"Not yet... how about you?" Elizabeth has intelligence support from Seth, and she knows that Sophia is also looking for it these days.
She also knows that there are many guys from the Heirs Club, as well as people from the Mystery Bureau, who have been here these days.
It's just that they seem to have a tacit understanding, they don't look for the place the other party is looking for, they just send people to follow.
Because of the treasure, Seth and Gasboy couldn't fight in the street like Boxers, unless the value of the treasure far outweighed the damage caused by the fight.
"I didn't gain anything either. Where did you get this revelation?" Sophia asked in a tone of an old best friend, jokingly: "Won't everyone be fooled by you, let the boxers watch our bankers joke?"
Some words are said in a joking way.
Sophia actually didn't hide her disappointment and sullenness. Although the boxing area is huge and there are still many places she hasn't looked for, she doesn't think there will be anything.
The purpose of Elizabeth's "return" seems to really want to toss them from the inside.
"You played a bit too much this time." Sophia said again, "Aren't you afraid of being demoted? You know that I was demoted to the third level, and now I only have the sixth level. It's okay, don't worry about me, I have found it. New brain slave."
"Sofia..." Elizabeth frowned, listening to the other person say a cruel thing in a casual tone, she was really unbearable and sad, not only for the unknown brain slave, but also for the person in front of her.
Sophia, how did you become like this?
Sophia was not like this when she was a child or in middle school, and their relationship was not...
"Oh yes, I have another invitation for you."
Sophia took out an exquisite invitation letter from her handbag, handed it to Elizabeth, and smiled:
"Everyone in the club is thinking, everyone is here, so let's do something, everyone put together some change, and together they add up to 30 million, to hold a championship match of the superhuman arena. It has been organized for a few days, and we will play tomorrow night. The time and place are on the invitation letter."
Elizabeth doesn't really want to accept the invitation, and doesn't really want to go.
The boxing area has various taverns and boxing gyms, all of which are arenas for underground fighting.
There are countless **** boxing matches, unlimited fighting, and extraordinary fighting here every day, attracting all kinds of gamblers and audiences, and developing middlemen, boxer brokers, champion boxers...
The gaming companies under the various chaebols have even started related legal gambling.
She also heard that there is a kind of "hunting game" for rich guys like them to play. Some are looking for some proxy boxers to hunt and kill competitions, some are going to hunt and kill in person, and they are all killed. "Wild dog" stowaways.
This is the economic and ecological balance of the boxing area.
This kind of economy has spawned all kinds of big and small boxing gangs, the biggest one is called the God of War Gang.
The gang gathered and cultivated all kinds of desperadoes, and made many local children here from childhood, so that the boxing area has become a place where all forces recruit troops and make fun.
"Elizabeth, you have to think about it." Sophia reminded seriously, "If you really want to return, return to the bank, return to the heirs club, instead of being further marginalized, you should go."
Elizabeth was silent, she really didn’t want to talk to these blood-eaters in a vain and arrogant way…
However, she thought of Dagny, is Dagny willing to be hypocritical with those revelers?
Dagny has Dagny's way, and she has her way.
For now, the opinion of the Heirs Club can very much influence Seth's opinion of her.
"I'll be there." Elizabeth finally spoke.
"Okay." Sophia smiled. "Then you can pick someone quickly. The rule for entering the arena is to bring your own boxer. Everyone has made a small bet to compete for the championship."
Elizabeth couldn't help but get angry, "I don't want to play, just go and see."
"Alas." Sophia shook her head, turned and walked in the square, "I didn't set the rules. The host is Harato Yosuke. He likes to joke lately, maybe it's a joke, you can ask him."
Yosuke Hara Fuji? Elizabeth was speechless, so she didn't need to ask, either she didn't go, or she went with a boxer.
