Chapter 143: North of the City
Even an uneducated street dog like Lorna knew the era of the Transcendent Program had thrown the world into utter chaos. Activating that damn Black Stone Elizabeth mentioned was like opening the gates of hell, letting all the devils loose.
Data errors mysteriously sprang up everywhere, spawning Mutants and Wondrous Items in their wake.
The wilderness suffered the worst of it. Nuclear fallout left over from the Great War, compounded by later industrial and biological pollution, had ruined much of the water supply.
Because these blighted lands were barely habitable and nearly impossible to develop, Liuguang City had halted its expansion.
People could only cram themselves into the twenty-nine districts of what was now called the Liuguang Metropolis, packing it to the brim.
This was a major reason why that rotten plot of land in the Walled City District was worth so much money.
"Can you believe people are still crammed into the Bloodline District?" Lorna said, her tone deliberately flippant.
Gu He didn't dare reply carelessly. The place was actually very important to her. "That just means the Bloodline District is a good place."
"Oh, it's wonderful. So good that if you take a trip inside, you'll walk out with an extra hand or foot, completely free of charge."
