Chapter 702 The Strange White Light City

Hundreds of years later, everyone came to the middle of the God Realm, and here, the chaos is much less!

Especially in the city with the Hall of Ascension, every city lord has great strength, and the six supernatural forces have branches in the city, so the city is very stable.
However, in the small city and the wild outside, it is still very chaotic. It is not uncommon to kill people and seize treasures. Those who have no strength dare not go outside alone.
However, there are exceptions, that is, Lu Tian and his party!
The crowd swaggered and flew in the air during the day, attracting a large number of people with bad intentions, and the final result was self-evident.
Lu Tian needs corpses and resources!
On this day, everyone came to a small city called Baiguang City. Although there is no Ascension Hall in the city, it is a central city after all, much bigger than Giant Axe City.
There is a dispute at the gate of Baiguang City. One side is a passerby who wants to enter Baiguang City, and the other is the guard at the gate of Baiguang City.
Everyone stood around the crowd and watched to see what happened!

"Why has the entry fee for entering White Light City increased a hundredfold?"

"That's right! Originally, there were one hundred middle-grade divine stones, but now you want [-] middle-grade divine stones. Isn't that a robbery?"

"I am a resident of Baiguang City, why do I need [-] middle-grade divine stones?"

Many people who wanted to enter the White Light City made loud noises, asking why the entrance fee had increased, and some of them originally belonged to the White Light City. After going out for a trip, they found that they had to pay for it.
"Since you have asked, let me tell you that according to the new city regulations promulgated by the city lord of Baiguang City recently, because the God Realm is now in danger, you can get his protection if you enter Baiguang City. This is your protection fee, understand?"

"But the asylum fee is worth it! You can stay in White Light City as long as you want, and White Light City will not drive you away unless you leave voluntarily!"

"The same is true for the residents of this city. Since you have left, you will also need asylum fees when you come back, but you don't need it if you stay in the city all the time!"

"Think about it carefully. You can only enter after paying the asylum fee. If you don't pay it, leave! Maybe there is any danger outside the city?"

The guards look like you can't get in, and don't force them to hand in the asylum fee.
"I won't enter this city yet, go to other cities!"

"Go, go to other cities and see who will enter his White Light City!"

Many people didn't want to pay the protection fee, chose not to enter Baiguang City, and left the gate of the city.
"When did this happen? Why didn't you tell me in advance? I only left in January!"

"I also asked in the city, there is no such thing at all, it must be deliberately not to say, Baiguang City just wants to charge this fee."

The residents complained that [-] mid-grade divine stones is not a small amount, but considering their property in the city, they were still reluctant to pay the fee in the end.
Lu Tian and the others also understood what was going on. To put it bluntly, they just collected the sacred stone with an excuse and wanted to take the opportunity to reap a fortune!
Doing so is totally unpopular, it is clearly driving people out, and no one is willing to stay in Baiguang City.
Lu Tian stepped forward and asked the guard, "We are guarding the temple, how many sacred stones should we hand in?"

The seven supernatural forces, whether it is a city or a town, have a little bit of face and have preferential policies.
Sure enough, the guards put on a smile when they saw everyone showing their legion badges: "The original price is just one hundred middle-grade divine stones!"

Shaking his head, everyone handed in the sacred stone and entered Baiguang City. They didn't understand what Baiguang City was doing, but they soon found out.
After entering the city, everyone found a restaurant and wanted to drink some wine to pass the time. After entering the restaurant, the restaurant was full of dissatisfaction.
"What's going on, I'm a regular customer here, why haven't I come here for a while, and the level of all the food and drinks has increased tenfold?"

"That's right! Even if the price has increased, it hasn't increased so much! What are you doing?"

Some regular customers of the restaurant found that the price had increased tenfold when they finished their meals, and they questioned the shopkeeper angrily.
With an apologetic expression on his face, the old shopkeeper of the restaurant explained to all the customers: "To tell you the truth, our restaurant has also received a notification from the City Lord's Mansion that the annual fee has been paid ten times more. Raise it tenfold, if you don't raise it, leave White Light City."

"Not only our restaurants, but all shops in the city, as long as they are doing business, except that only the people of the seven major forces can enjoy the original price."

The shopkeeper of the restaurant patiently explained, and the customers also summoned the confirmation, and finally had to pay.
In this small city, the words of the city lord are more important than anything else, if you think it is too much, you can leave!

Lu Tian and the others showed their legion badges, and after ordering food and wine, they chatted while eating, talking about all the strange things they saw in Baiguang City.
"Is this Baiguang City crazy? Why can't I understand it!"

"That's right! It's clear that I want to drive everyone away. If this happens, won't it become an empty city?"

"Who knows! Anyway, the members of the seven major forces are not affected, which is really a benefit!"

Lu Tian also couldn't figure it out, but he didn't want to figure it out either: "Anyway, it has nothing to do with us, it's Baiguang City's own business."

After eating, everyone found a place to rest. On the second day, everyone wanted to leave Baiguang City. When they were walking on the street, they heard people talking on the street again.
"Brother Baidu, have you heard that many residents want to sell their houses in Baiguang City and move out of Baiguang City to other cities." A well-informed person is quietly telling his friends the latest news he has received.
Unexpectedly, the friend Baidu next to him smiled mysteriously: "Brother Gou, I have heard about this a long time ago, but now there is an extra rule in Baiguang City. It is said that buyers need to pay an additional purchase tax, which is equivalent to [-]% of the total value of the property. Half!"

Although the two spoke very softly, it was not a summons after all, and was heard by many people around.
"What? With this purchase tax, who would buy it?"

Seeing people around him looking at him, Brother Baidu immediately straightened up and told him what he knew: "Of course not, but the City Lord's Mansion is willing to repurchase the price at a [-]% discount considering that no one will take over it!"

"It's a [-]% discount... the reason is not the same!"

"Isn't it? Will anyone sell it?"

"Of course there is! A lot of people think they are unlucky, and if they lose, they will lose, as long as they leave this White Light City as soon as possible."

"I really don't know what the Lord of White Light City thinks. Can this White Light City continue to operate?"

For a while, the discussion started again, and it couldn't be covered up, and everyone passing by heard it, but this matter had nothing to do with them, so they smiled and walked towards the gate of the city.
After Lu Tian and others left, the discussion on the street continued, and many people were full of ironic remarks.
At this time, Brother Sougou made a gesture of silence, looked around for a while, and then whispered: "Speak carefully!"
