The weather is cloudy.

Anthropocentrism.

Steam train carriage.

Zhao Guangli had a fake beard on his face, a newly purchased tweed black suit, and a brown deerstalker hat on his head. He was sitting on the far left side of the carriage.

He held the latest version of the Independent Daily News in his hand and read it carefully, with a pipe hanging from his mouth.

It's very prosperous here, so prosperous that it's even a bit surprising.

Even the vendors on both sides of the street retain the arrogance of the indigenous people in their words.

Although this is the outermost edge of the Land of Never Fall, they still feel this way.

Except for the Never-Fall Land, everyone is a countryman.

Zhao Guangli turned over a page of the newspaper and took out a handkerchief from his sleeve. He tried his best to look more like an indigenous gentleman, but as soon as he started talking, his accent would reveal everything.

There are no cities in the center of humanity. To be precise, it is only divided into the Emperor's Capital and the areas outside the Emperor's Capital.

The entire Land of Never-Fall outside the Emperor's Capital is divided into sixteen major districts. Zhao Guangli's current location is the Queen's Sky Block in the southernmost part of the Land of Never-Fall. Of course, even one district can be called one. The territory is vast.

Just one district is as big as hundreds of Green Capital cities.

Only with such a size can it be called a giant.

Zhao Guangli learned from previous conversations with residents that the area of ​​​​Huanghuangtian Street is relatively small among the 16 major districts in the Human Center.

"The Human Center is really big."

Zhao Guangli was leaning on the uncomfortable back of the chair and looking at the mist outside the window.

The steam train tickets here are not cheap, they are even very expensive, at least few ordinary people can afford them.

Not long ago, Zhao Guangli finally discovered that after constant squandering, his wallet finally hit the bottom.

There are currently about two silver coins left, which is a huge amount of money for an ordinary family, but for Zhao Guangli, this is far from enough.

And the price of goods in the human center is quite high.

Zhao Guangli had already discovered this when he spent money.

The price here is almost five times more than that of Black Iron Castle for the same set of outfits with similar quality.

There was a squeaking sound from the bottom of the metal carriage, and a patrolman in police uniform walked in front of Zhao Guangli.

At this moment, Zhao Guangli took out a pocket watch, looked at it pretendingly, and pressed the fake beard on his face hard.

"This train goes to the Emperor's Capital...that's right."

Su Lin asked in a low voice.

"I've seen it, it's true."

Zhao Guangli turned over a page of newspaper and covered his face.

"Independent Daily News" is one of the newspapers and media that ranks quite high in the entire human center. It takes the authenticity of information as its first requirement. In short, it is similar to a serious literary media. It never provides information about the social interactions of celebrities. Have any connection.

Before the steam train arrived at the Imperial Capital, I had a long time to read this newspaper.

This newspaper is for the general public and has almost no information about the extraordinary.

What occupies the front page is what is currently being hotly debated throughout the league, as to who will occupy the ten vacant seats in the league.

"Currently, the ones who are qualified to participate in the alliance's ten seats are Mr. Song Tengye of the Song Consortium, and the other is Guild Master Irene Dupont of the Adventurer Council..."

Zhao Guangli put on his gloves and crossed the paper newspaper in front of him: "Song Tengye is Xiaoyinghua's father, the legendary Song clan, so who is this Mr. Irene Dupont?"

"Irene Dupont, hey, he's an old guy." Sulin looked at the photo in the newspaper: "The current leader of the Dupont family has mastered the adventurer war group and the mercenary organization, and is currently the only one who can compete with the Morgan family.

Arms dealers vying for market share."

Su Lin was at the entrance of Zhao Guangli's cave and said, "I didn't expect that the opponent of the old fox Song Tengye would be the weirdo Irene Dupont."

"Now there's something good to watch."

"Is he also a noble?" Zhao Guangli glanced across the metal screen outside the steam train. In the center of humanity, the only thing that surprised Zhao Guangli was the huge light curtain in front of him, which used extraordinary power to reveal various

Such slogans.

"Yes, the Dupont family is famous for its arms and incest marriages. It has a bad reputation in the alliance." Sulin put his tentacles on the newspaper: "Dupont is an old aristocrat. Although he is not the top group, he

It’s very close.”

The recent battle for the ten league seats has now reached a fever pitch.

The Song clan and the Dupont family were already competing for political resources.

"Who has a better chance of winning?"

"I don't know. I originally thought that no one would compete with Song Tengye, but now it seems that he does have a difficult opponent."

Su Lin moved his tentacles.

Zhao Guangli also folded the newspaper, completely covering Su Lin's small tentacles.

The middle-aged man sitting opposite Zhao Guangli just felt a little strange.

The young man dressed as a gentleman in front of him looked a little stiff in his movements.

"I've finished reading the serious literature, next is... gossip news."

Zhao Guangli changed a magazine.

This is an extraordinary journal for extraordinary people. In the human center, there are many such journals, and it is also open to almost all members of the human race, including ordinary people.

Of course, since books and periodicals are extremely valuable in this world, few ordinary people will spend money to buy such things. Those who can really read newspapers and books and periodicals are at least middle class in this world.

"'Ladder'...is this the best-selling magazine that the boss said?"

"I've heard of "The Staircase" before. It's a very famous extraordinary magazine. However, it is often criticized for the information in it being illusory, artificially exaggerated, and illogical at all. Many of the stories are basically compiled.

Come out."

"Does anyone read this kind of magazine?" Zhao Guang asked curiously.

Su Lin raised his thumb with his tentacle and shook his head: "There are so many people who like to see this kind of content."

"This is human nature. After all, order mages need to learn psychology. I know this aspect very well."

"Also, the information on "The Staircase" is not all fabricated. There is a lot of extraordinary information about the supernatural, which was later proven to be correct." Sulin drew circles with his tentacles boredly: "I heard that

Ah, behind "The Staircase", there may be a large-scale supernatural force, and there are some stories that they even dare to arrange for nobles."

"Oh?" Zhao Guangli was quite interested at the moment: "Su Lin, have you seen it before?"

"Tsk, didn't I realize? I used to pretend to be a lady at home and at school. What I read was either "Code of Etiquette" or typical academic journals like "Mystery", "Human Body", and "Ritual"..."

Zhao Guangli looked at Su Lin's beaming look, and it was really hard to imagine how this guy looked like a lady back then.

Is this guy really a top student at Kaihuangin?

Zhao Guangli shook his head at this moment. He turned the corner of the magazine with his fingers and saw a huge title on the first page.

""The Young Generation at the Top - Stars Scattered in the World"."
