As soon as he stepped out of the carriage, Lei Luo slammed into someone.
Lei Luo looked up and saw that he had hit a burly man who was a full head taller than him.
He was dressed in tattered adventurer clothes and wore a few broken armor pieces.
Lei Luo was about to say he was sorry.
He looked up at the brawny man and noticed that the man’s arms were crossed and he was glaring down at him.
His eyes were looking down at him from a 45-degree angle.
“Do you have five silver coins on you?”
“I’ve long heard that there are people in the city pretending to be refugees to beg.
So it’s true.
”
Lei Luo thought so and smiled at him with a friendly shrug.
He wanted to go around and walk away.
The brawny man took a step to the side and blocked Lei Luo.

He put the huge palm in front of Lei Luo’s eyes and clenched it tightly.
He continued to ask, “Do you have five silver coins on you?”
Lei Luo had been in Utopia Farm for a long time and hadn’t translated it yet.
But after a while, Lei Luo suddenly understood.

He pointed at the brawny man with a sudden realization.
“Oh? You’re blackmailing me?”
After understanding the situation, he reacted as quickly as possible.
This was the idea instilled in Lei Luo since he was a young boy, and at this time, it was an instinct that had been trained in him for many years.
Lei Luo immediately retreated to the side, then he took out a dagger from his waist.
He threw it at the strong man’s thigh.
Fresh blood flowed out of the man’s thigh.
The strong man screamed and agreed to it.
“You…why do you have a dagger?”
The brawny man roared as he lay on the ground.
Although he was not at the point of death yet, the brawny man felt as if he had died with his eyes wide open.
He hugged his thighs with both hands and looked at Lei Luo in shock.
As a normal person, his shock was understandable.
According to the empire’s laws, no commoner was allowed to carry weapons.
However, according to the laws of the empire, weapons that could not be carried were so-called lethal weapons.
Things like daggers were not within the jurisdiction of the law.
The reason was very simple.
It was because a powerful warrior and a commoner’s physical fitness were too different.
As long as a warrior trained slightly, ordinary people would not be able to kill him with a dagger.
Even if it was hard to harm the soldiers, it would be even harder to harm the elite nobles.
However, a dagger was a weapon that couldn’t harm the soldiers and the warriors who were stronger than the soldiers, but it was enough to threaten the civilians who hadn’t been trained and learned enough.
The dagger was placed in Lei Luo’s luggage by Habacca.
Lei Luo knew these rules.
So when he made his move, he didn’t hesitate at all.
After stabbing him in the thigh with the dagger, Lei Luo was about to leave.
The strong man sat on the ground with his arms crossed.
Just as he was lamenting his bad luck, he suddenly saw Lei Luo walking back.
He looked at what Lei Luo had in his hand.
The burly man turned his head again and saw a church ten meters away.
The nun was standing in front of the church with her mouth agape.
A huge foreboding came over him.
The burly man’s instinct told him that it was best for him to run away now.
He wanted to do so too, but the problem was that he couldn’t move one leg at all.
And the following scene was very tragic that it didn’t need to be described.
A two-meter-tall brawny man with white hands and hair and curled up on the ground was held by an expressionless guy holding half of the church’s door.
He was beaten up for more than half an hour.
The people beside him thought that they had killed their father.
“What’s going on in this world?”
“The public security is so bad.
”
“He’s being blackmailed in the city! Seriously…”
Lei Luo was so tired that he was panting.
He threw the door to the side.
Originally, Lei Luo was blackmailed.
He should be the one who was justified.
But the onlookers knew that the poor man who was covered in blood only wanted five silver coins.
They all showed sympathetic expressions.
He had been beaten to such a state just for five silver coins.
“Yeah, how could we meet such a pervert?”
“He’s really insane.
”
“Could he be insane?”
Such comments kept popping up in Lei Luo’s ears.
Lei Luo looked around casually.
The way everyone looked at him was starting to look a little contemptuous.
At first, Lei Luo was barely able to hold on, but as the number of people increased, the situation changed.
There were almost 500 people gathered at the city gate and started to point at Lei Luo.
Lei Luo couldn’t hold on any longer.
He could only carry the huge man to the church next door to receive treatment under everyone’s disdainful gazes.
In the end, it didn’t matter if he didn’t go.
The moment he entered the door, Lei Luo’s face turned green with regret.
It turned out that this huge man was called Arthur.
He was a standard pauper.
His entire body was less than ten copper coins.
This way, Lei Luo would have to pay for his treatment.
“Please say it again.
I want to confirm the treatment fee.
”
Lei Luo’s face turned green as he waited for the nun.
She could use holy light to treat the man’s injuries.
“It’s a total of 300 gold coins…After using the holy potion, the bed fee, the treatment fee, the Holy Light Fee, and the 11 taxes, it’s a total of 364 gold coins.
”
“Then you can cut the person inside into pieces.
I don’t know him.
”
In Utopia Farm, Lei Luo did not worry about food and clothing.
Naturally, he would not place money in his appreciation.
Even in the casino, he was a high-roller who spent a lot of money.
But after all, he did not use his own money.
He only used gambling cards.
To Lei Luo, this was just a number.
It had an unreal feeling.
But when he really took out these 300 gold coins, the psychological feeling was different.
He had just gotten off the carriage.
Lei Luo had lost half of his wealth.
He walked to the door of the church with a gloomy expression.
The tall Arthur chased after him from the clinic.
Without waiting for Lei Luo to speak, Arthur said sincerely, “I will return these 300 gold coins to you.
”
He had planned to ask him to return the money, but seeing Arthur like this, Lei Luo also lost interest.
“You only have 10 copper coins on you, how can you return the money? Sigh.
Forget it, I was muddle-headed.
If I had known earlier, I would have given you five silver coins.
”
Lei Luo waved his hand weakly and said gloomily, “Sigh.
Forget it.
It’s useless to talk about this now.
You can go.
”
“Sir, don’t be like this.
I’m not very smart, but my combat ability is not bad.
”
Lei Luo studied the man again.
If it was just about his physique, Arthur’s physique was indeed not bad.
“If it wasn’t for the lack of connections, I would have joined the army a long time ago.
Sir, please take me with you.
I’ll do whatever you want until I pay off what you spent on medical expenses.
