Chapter 78: Mob

~7 min read 1,382 words

Within the city, the Wealth Church is also quite busy; despite the large number of Gold Ties, there are actually no more than 20 people who have truly awakened.

Among them, two must be responsible for guarding Sarana, who has not yet been sent away, and for the rest to try and guarantee the security of all of Tana City is simply preposterous.

Counting the police, the city center and the Rich District are currently only barely being held; among the serfs who have experienced various disasters, incidents of smashing noble Nongzhuang and looting property have already begun to occur.

"Viscount Philip sent people over, saying his house on Fragrant Grass Street was looted, and he lost, lost several women..." a Gold Tie ran over to report to Feng Bu'er, "and there is a riot on Tulip Street; we just confronted those rioters with the police, and their numbers are growing."

It is merely an attack by the Barbarian.

It's not as if this hasn't happened at this time in previous years!

How could it have become this bad?

And the War Church, actually withdrawing all the guards—isn't this just looking for trouble for themselves?

But he has no other way; after all, because of several issues with Transcendental Power appearing in the city this year, the number of people in the city who could become soldiers has greatly decreased...

"You take the third and fourth squads first to face those rioters; if that doesn't work, use Alchemy. In any case, you cannot let those people run wild; at the very least, wait for the Guard Team to come down," Feng Bu'er said with a clear train of thought, "Also, what is the situation in the Factory District?"

"The fire has been suppressed, but the police refuse to go over there no matter what; all we can do is keep the Factory District from catching fire," a Gold Tie member said, "Those factory owners, as well as several nobles, are indeed looking to cause us trouble, and even said they would impeach us to the diocese. We have no choice; there really aren't enough members."

Although the Golden Church has hired a large number of staff, at a time like this, no one is willing to give their life for the Golden Church.

Of course, if the pay were increased, it wouldn't be a problem, but there are still too few such people.

The Golden Church usually pays them a high price; even if they were fired now, it would be enough for them to start a small business and have no worries about food or clothing in the future.

Then why do such dangerous things?

"You guys take a few people to find Feng; if there are no problems on Bar Street, he should still be able to bring some manpower over," Feng could only think of this subordinate, which is also one of the costs of his awakening.

The reason he took a fancy to him was that he saw he had a group of Xiahui People under him that could be used; otherwise, he wouldn't have given him the awakening.

Moreover, the strength of these people is quite good, at least they are not afraid of death.

Feng Bu'er wanted to find Feng Buxi, and Feng Buxi also wanted to find him; the matter on Bar Street had temporarily come to an end, and he believed there wouldn't be anyone blind enough to still want to find trouble with these players.

But seeing the billowing smoke from the Factory District, and Mengmeng and the others who had suffered some minor injuries because their shop was smashed, one could see how chaotic the entire Tana City is right now.

At present, there are over eighty players in total; Feng Buxi simply had Yun Xiao take dozens of players who wanted to fight, go out through the Sewers, and head straight to the Wealth Church's Golden Church in the city center.

Thus, Feng Bu'er, before hearing back from his teammate, saw those players who had a bit of a smell on them.

"Yun, you did well! We are just in need of helpers!" Feng Bu'er excitedly grabbed Yun Xiao, "You go to Tulip Street first; the people there will tell you what to do. This way, we will also have the manpower to solve the problem in the Factory District."

"Okay." He knew there would be a quest here.

Immediately after, Feng Bu'er asked again: "Where is Feng? Why didn't he come?"

"Bar Street." Yun Xiao gestured, "He is there."

Although it was simple, Feng knew what had happened; Bar Street is near the Factory District, so chaos was inevitable.

However, ordinary civilians wouldn't go to Bar Street, where there are Gold Tie secret sentries, but this way, the Gold Tie secret sentries are probably already out in the open.

"Okay, I will have my people go find him." Feng waved his hand and continued to stare at the chaotic street in front of him; he must be in the very center at all times. There are too many people causing trouble right now, and it's hard to say whether any Transcendental Power might be playing some bad role among them.

Yun Xiao immediately took the team to Tulip Street; this is the section dividing the central city area and the ordinary commercial district, and the shop of Mengmeng and Mengmeng is also opened near here.

Through their descriptions, Yun Xiao had long realized how chaotic this place was. Originally, there were many unemployed people lingering near Bar Street in the morning; after the horn sounded, these people did not dare to participate in the fighting on Bar Street and squeezed directly into the city.

The inner city, which no one was looking after, became a relatively safer place, but as long as someone incited it, it wouldn't be strange for any problems to arise.

The surrounding shops had basically all been looted; the items inside were either scattered all over the ground or had been snatched clean.

Of course, those who snatched things didn't fare much better; some things had long since turned into bloody fights as people scrambled for them in the chaos.

The wailing of children, the helplessness of shopkeepers, the dead bodies everywhere, and the final confrontation with the police and Gold Ties as they tried to rush into the central city area...

"Help has arrived, quick, help hold them back." Bulu still had egg fragments on his face, spat, and said, "These rioters are simply lunatics!"

It was clear that these people were only worried about being accidentally injured by the rioters behind them; once the scrambling ended in a while, those people would definitely hope to loot the property on these people.

No one wants to be destitute overnight, even if they still have a house.

And who can say for sure whether these houses will be burned down?

There are already places on fire in the city; although that is the Factory District, what if?

This can't go on like this, Yun Xiao frowned, then discussed with the players behind him, "Should we split into two teams, one team responsible for holding back these rioters, and the other team to deal with those mobsters?"

"Us? We aren't guards..." a few players hesitated, but thinking about it, such a narrow road really didn't need so many people.

"What are they doing?" Bulu had just breathed a sigh of relief and intended to take a few people back to ask Feng about the next plan, when he saw a few players moving against the flow of the crowd, splitting the crowd into two parts.

What do those Xiahui People want to do? Bulu didn't leave directly, but stared at those guys.

Although they hadn't awakened, for ordinary people, the players who had been fighting frequently lately naturally had higher quality.

Soon, more than a dozen people drilled to the very back of the crowd.

At the very back, a few pretty little girls had already begun to be dragged away by the mobsters.

Luolita came up and kicked one of the mobsters; those guys who were already not getting enough to eat naturally couldn't beat Luolita and fell directly to the ground.
