David quickly placed his hands on the old man's mouth, appearing very anxious.
He looked left to right hoping that no one heard the old man's words.
"Do you want to get us killed?" Knowing the weapons arrangements of the city gates was no different then the city being laid bare.
With tat sort of information, one could just take the necessary precaution and one would be able to silently infiltrate the city and even when sighted by someone and the alarm bells ring, there is nothing that could stop a prepared man from leaving or entering the city..
But it was at this moment he realised that the old man was somehow messed up in the head.iving the old man to one corner, he decided to humour the old man out of pity.
"Alright, since you claim to know the map of the defensive measures they took, tell me, I'm listening."
The old man appeared to be very excited as he said opened his mouth to speak.
"The first and obvious line of defense is the Suncraner but the second line of defense is another five hidden Suncraner arranged in different positions."
"Now, the truly terrifying weapons hidden are the Black hole Plasma-"
"Pfft! Cough!! Cough!" David couldn't just hold it in and instantly choked on his own spit. After a while, he turned to glare at the old man and shouted in a whisper.
"You old Addict. Even a rather large institution wouldn't be able to get their hands on a Black Hole Plasma. What makes you think a Mid sized city like this would be able to procure one instead!?"
"And who said this was a mid-sized city." The old man gazed at David a bit confused.
David was instantly stunned speechless and he really just want to turn back and leave this instant.
"Don't disrupt me when I'm speaking kid, It's impolite. Anyways, There are four Black Hole Plasmas installed inside the wall, covered with some kind of artificial camouflaging ornament that can even overlook the gaze of an Integrated Phaser.". The old man continued speaking excitedly, spewing out saliva as he spoke
David's eyes twitched incessantly and he really wanted to just shut this old man up. He still managed to take in four Black Hole Plasma. But his expression got twisted when he's heard the old man mention the Raven GH-10.
It was a fvcking lock-on laser beam. There is no way one could escape being hit no matter how fast you are. Even David had barely read about it since the institute only had that much information on hand.
It was at this moment David knew... He had wasted his damn time. Even if this was a large sized city, it shouldn't have enough power to procure such weapons. And not to talk of the expensive traps the old man was talking about.
When the old man was done, he gazed at David proudly as with an expression stating 'Praise me kid! I know you want to.'
"Deep breathes David, deep breathes." as he said this to himself. He immediately turned around and left without hesitation.
The old man was a bit stunned and he called out. "Hey kid. You didn't hear the best part of it yet."
David paused in his steps and his body trembled. After a few seconds, he resumed moving as he headed towards the line of people wanting to enter the city.
The old man gazed at David with a weird expression as he shook his head. "Kids these days."
"Don't you think there might be some truth to the old man's words?" David rolled his eyes as he retorted.
"You are the last person I expect that question from."
Strangely though, Hazel remained silent and David thought back to the words she had muttered back then about the other reason she always goes silent sometimes and couldn't help but freeze slightly.
Finally, it was David's turn. He quickly turned on his interface and a picture of himself popped up together with some false information about him.
Like his name, Floyd Brown, his age and other things originally falsified by the institute.
A penetrating green laser light shine from the machine Into the hologram, scanning if the information was false or correct.
With a blip sound, the green laser light vanished and David stepped forwards and proceeded to be searched on by the guards.
Three different guards also gazed deeply at his identity tag and then left him to leave after seeing nothing wrong with it.
"Don't cause any trouble kid, this place is not as simple as it looks." David was confused as the man had said this to only him and not the other two that had just left.
But he decided the middle aged man had said it out of pity but what made him a bit wary was the look on the man's face.
David took his turn and directly entered through the city gates into the city. It was really beautiful and David couldn't help but be awed by it.
It was the first true city he had seen since his reincarnation to this place. The place was bustling with people, children, men and women.
Walking in and out of some large establishments or their homes. From the far distance, he could see the market at the distance how the customers and the traders were haggling.
It was the first glimpse at a normal life David had seen and he couldn't help but be a bit emotional at the scene.
Calming himself down, he decided other students had already been here and would have gotten much of a lead on him on the case.
Grabbing a random stranger, by the shoulder.
"Oh, I'm sorry!"
He immediately apologised a bit embarrassed. When he realised it was a woman. The woman immediately glared at him and she impatiently stated. "What do you want?"
"Uhm, do you how I can reach Pedellopian Street?" David asked softly.
The beautiful woman gazed at him strangely as she asked in return. "Are you sure you want to go there?"
David wasn't surprised by her reaction since the place was practically the Slums in the city. She must be wondering why he would be willing to go to such a place.
But it was non of her business anyways and she shrugged as she answered him. "Just keep walking till you reach the edge if the city."
She then turned as she was about to leave. David was stunned. He should keep walking?
With how big the city was, it would take him almost 3 days of walking till he reached the edge of the city.
"Sorry again but the city is huge-" before he could finish speaking, the lady waved her hands appearing to be at the very edge of exploding in anger.
"Then you should try searching for a Public Cruiser heading towards that direction shouldn't you?" The lady glowered at him.
David blinked his eyes and nodded as he watched as the woman took her leave in anger.
"Why are the women in this world so violent? Even the ordinary ones." David muttered to himself as he shook his head.
"You are speaking like you are not from this world. This isn't the first time you are doing it either." Hazel said in his head.
David expression froze slightly but he recovered and he turned around to leave without saying a word. He knew if he said anything, he would be found out as Hazel could read his heart rate but not without his permission though.
But with Hazel's growth, who knew if she could bypass the security.
A few minutes later, David alighted a somewhat decent looking Sky Cruiser as it landed at a somewhat old looking landing port.
David paid 15 star coins for the whole journey and he couldn't help but think he had been scammed but since he was new to this place, he decided not to haggle with the pilot.
As he got off the place, a terrible stink flowed past his nose and David frowned at it.
But then, he was just at the edge of the slums and he was already perceiving something as terrible as this who knows how bad it would get once he reached the inner parts.
Adjusting his breathe, he walked into the area and he could gradually see people showing up.
David didn't mind the dirty environment nor its people. As he continuously walked by, he paused as he stared at the dilapidated old bar with a barely working and swinging holographic pod placed at the top which stated "Wolverton's Bar."
And although it was a bar, David couldn't hear anything as he stood on the outside of the bar.
As soon as entered, a loud overwhelming noise of laughter, music and the thick smell of cheap perfume wafted into his, almost choking him with its chemicals.
The place was rowdy and stifling to the extreme. David scrunched up his nose for a bit but then, he loosened up as he needed to fit in.
Suddenly his step paused as he gazed at the edge of the bar, seeing quite a few familiar faces.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
David quickly placed his hands on the old man's mouth, appearing very anxious.
He looked left to right hoping that no one heard the old man's words.
