Chapter 228 Intelligence
When the night comes again.
Alka and others have already arrived at this place called Broken Town.
In the northeast corner of the town, there is an area of idle triangular houses.
This area is the ruler of Broken Town, and is specially designated as a place for outsiders to live when they arrive.
One silver snake per house per week.
With such a rent, compared with the surrounding environment and the size of the house, if it were placed in Jiayuanhai, it would be no different from robbery.
But this is the boundless sea.
What Alka didn't expect was that even the people on this island would actually use the Silver Snake to conduct transactions.
As mentioned in the book, these three currencies are used for transactions almost everywhere, almost reaching the level of universal currency.
Of course, I am talking about the leadership of the small town.
For the residents of the town itself, it is more about bartering and uniform distribution.
This can be considered some of what Alka gained in the small town during the day.
They rented a total of 4 rooms, which was enough for all of them.
"Poroluo, this is the biggest house where the two of us live." Alka said, looking at the house in front of him that was more than twice as tall as the surrounding ones.
This room costs two silver snakes a week.
There is no way, mainly because Pororo's size is much larger than that of normal humans.
Equivalent to a little giant.
4 houses, the large house specially provided is inhabited by Pororo and Alka.
Xia Detti, Julia, and Materissa lived in one room.
Jason, Simon and Juanlu live in one room.
Four dolls live in one room.
Alka looked around and found that this area was specially designed for renting houses to outsiders.
But now there are only four of them here.
And perhaps considering that they were acting together, the residents of the town thoughtfully set up a bonfire in the open space in the middle of their four houses.
At this time, there was a crackling sound of burning wood, and little sparks floated out.
After briefly looking around the room, Alka and Pororo came to sit down by the campfire.
When he sat down, Pororo stayed far away and moistened his skin with water.
The day was longer today, so he hadn't been in contact with the sea water for a while.
One after another, everyone packed up their temporary houses and came to sit down by the bonfire.
"Everyone separated today and spent most of the day wandering around this town. Did you gain anything?"
Alka asked looking at everyone.
After they were brought to Broken Town by Shiraishi's patrol team today, they were allowed to roam freely in the town.
Just as they said in their dreams, there is nothing strange about outsiders. As long as they do not disturb the residents here and there is no conflict, no one will care about them.
By the way, I also told them where to rent a house if they wanted to take a temporary rest here.
Alka had thought that their town would have such a thing as a hotel.
"The residents here all have magic power in their bodies, and their magic power has reached a minimum level of one spiral."
Jason looked at the bonfire in front of him, fiddled with it twice and said.
However, Alka had received this news in a dream yesterday, and briefly told everyone about it.
Although I was still prepared, I was still a little shocked.
They had never seen so many magical people gathered together in their lives.
I heard Jason continue to say: "These people whose magic power is active due to the high-magic environment around them are completely different from those who touch the treasure and become touchers."
"These ordinary people have become magically active due to their environment, and the survival rate of newborn babies is not high.
Even if they have lived in such a high-magic environment for generations and their physiques have already changed, the children they are born will not be born with the ability to withstand the surge of magic in their bodies.
The probability of neonatal death is not low, but the exact rate is unknown.
And in the subsequent growth, the damage caused by magic will put these children at certain risks before the age of 5, and some of the surviving children will die from the disease with weak constitutions."
When Jason finished speaking, everyone looked at him.
Juanlu scratched his head and didn't understand.
"Did we really enter this town at the same time?"
Why does it feel like Jason has been in this town for a while? Is this information that can be obtained in such a short time?
Don't understand.
"Hmph, I haven't finished speaking yet." Jason snorted lightly.
"I found out that I don't know who the leader is in this town, but he must be in possession of the treasure."
"Oh, why do you say that?" Alka asked curiously.
He intentionally asked in his dream, but no one told him, so he didn't know if anyone on the island had the treasure.
"You said that the way they control their power is the tattoos on their bodies, right?" Jason asked, looking at Alka.
Alka nodded. This was indeed the news he had received in his dream, and he had told everyone before.
"But I discovered today that the person named Shiraishi must be stronger than me, right?"
Julia next to her nodded and said: "He can give me a sense of danger, so he should be on the same level as me."
Okay, that means he is around six helixes, or even a little higher.
Hearing Julia's answer, Jason clapped his hands: "Yes, he is very strong, but he has very few tattoos, only one."
"How do you know this?" Simon asked curiously from the side.
He didn't stay on the ship very long.
So in his impression, Jason was a living treasure on the ship, probably someone who used a gun to carry out long-range attacks.
It gave the impression that he was not very reliable. Not only did he feel this way, but Materissa, who had just stayed on the ship for a few days, also felt the same way.
This even includes Juanlu.
They didn't know that Jason's real strength was in collecting intelligence.
"I asked one of his subordinates, a man who just got a new tattoo a few days ago."
"That's what he told you?" Simon asked doubtfully.
He felt that things like this should be considered relatively confidential, and no one would tell an outsider such a thing.
Even for this small town, foreigners are not surprising.
But the necessary vigilance should not be lacking, especially for these hunters patrolling the town.
Hearing this, Jason looked at him in surprise, came to his side, patted him and said, "Friend, he doesn't know that he has told me. He and I were just chatting."
He said and winked at Simon.
Do you understand, using some kind of rhetoric technique, the power of language?
Anyway, he felt that he definitely couldn't do it.
Jason continued: "I have also learned about other patrols. Most of the people in leadership positions have very few tattoos, but ordinary hunters have many tattoos.
The possibility of this is not low, but I can’t completely guarantee it.”
"I also followed them around outside and saw them fighting."
"People with few tattoos are obviously using the power of the spell, while people with many tattoos are using the power of the tattoos on their bodies."
"It's obvious that those tattoos have few tattoos. They control their own magic power very carefully. Just like us, they can use magic power accurately to make their attacks powerful.
Those with a lot of tattoos can't do it. They can only use the tattoos and simply integrate the magic into the tattoos. If you want them to wrap the magic in their hands and let them flow out and attach to the weapons, they can't do it."
Jason observed very carefully, including those old hunters who seemed to have a lot of experience, but they couldn't do it either.
This is obviously unreasonable, unless they are born with poor control over magic power.
This is a problem caused by hard conditions and cannot be made up for by experience.
"Then I walked around the town a few times and got a rough idea of those with fewer tattoos. They should be people who were enlightened by the treasures, and they are all very powerful."
"And those with many tattoos have poor magic control. Without exception, they are all ordinary hunters. The magic in their bodies is active because of this high-magic environment."
After listening to all the information collected by Jason, Alka understood.
