“Let’s go. Since they’re closing soon, we’ll have to head out now.”

Su Mo got up, picked up his fur-collared coat beside his bed, and swung it over his shoulders.

Immediately, his mountain bandit look returned.

“Mr. Yang, what about your subordinates?” Huang Bing scratched his head in confusion after seeing Su Mo wanted to leave alone.

“Them? Don’t worry about them. They’re probably tired from traveling, so they should rest more!”

Although Su Mo brushed over it when it was mentioned by Huang Bin, he still instructed two soldiers that were sitting in the hotel lobby to follow him.

It would be unnecessary for others to follow him if he was in his territory.

However, there was a need for people to be with him in Origin Territory.

They could come in handy if trouble broke out or simply help with carrying the purchased goods.

As for Feng Tianmin, Feng Long, and Guan Yuan, Su Mo did not lie. The three of them had returned to their rooms to catch up on their sleep.

After a night of exploration, they grew more familiar with the scout robot’s operation method, and the three almost completely scouted the public parts of Origin Territory.

For now, they had sketched a simple map of the territory.

The arrangement of the buildings, the height of the buildings, and the general purpose had been clearly marked on the map.

Meanwhile, the group of bounty hunters that targeted them were unable to escape their pursuit.

Very easily, Feng Long tracked them and found the base camp where they were gathered at.

According to their progress, their first actions against them could be realized latest by the evening.

While it was still daylight, it was time for the trio to make up for sleep and save their energy for the night.

…

“Mr. Yang, would you like to get breakfast first or head straight to the market?”

After exiting the hotel, Huang Bing stood on the gravel road and looked around. He calmly touched his already growling belly.

The reason he offered to work three days in exchange for one day’s food was very simple.

Free meals!

In the past, when he encountered decent customers, even if he could not completely fill himself for three days, at least he would be half full and save on that day’s food.

In the case of poor customers, he would have to starve for two meals and spend additional food supplies of his own to fall asleep. Still, he could save two days’ worth of food in these three days.

He was able to get through the disaster by saving enough supplies over time.

Huang Bing was unsure whether he could even be half full since it was the first time he had encountered such a unique mountain bandit like Su Mo.

“Well, let’s eat first! A simple breakfast shop will do!”

Standing in the alleyway lined with stone houses, Su Mo quickly became the crowd’s focus.

Most people made fun of his outfit, wondering where such a freak came from wearing such a high-profile outfit.

However, the moment they saw a jet-black gun around his waist when he turned around, these people quickly averted their eyes, scared that they would anger him.

The current wasteland was full of people from the civilized era. Thus, everyone was naturally aware of the terrible fate if the gun were aimed at them.

Firearms.

It was still a rare resource that was hard to acquire and a weapon that everyone wanted to wield.

Apart from other things, it would at least provide them with a certain amount of combat strength!

“A simple breakfast shop?” Huang Bing’s eyes lit up after hearing Su Mo’s request and he was overjoyed. He quickly determined the direction and led Su Mo and the other two soldiers.

There were not many places to eat in Origin Territory.

One of the choices was some small stalls set up by refugees as a part-time job. They brought wild vegetables they dug up and boiled them to make soup or bakery. These stalls were considered the worst food option.

Besides those, dine-in stores were specifically set up in the territory square.

These shops were considered middle-class and had good quality food. It was one of the more popular options among travelers.

Huang Bing walked excitedly, knowing that he could have a meal there. He was evidently more enthusiastic as he introduced the territory.

“Mr. Yang, there are currently about 37,000 permanent residents in the Origin Territory and about 21 sub-territories.”

“The territory with the largest number of people is called the Main Peak, which is over there on the peak of that mountain! There are a total of 7,900 people in the main peak. The territory lord is naturally the lord of our entire Origin Territory, and I am a member of the main peak and currently a Level 2 resident.” Huang Bing said proudly as he pointed to a towering mountain that could be seen from the gathering place.

“Level 2?”

This type of inside information about Origin Territory was precisely what Su Mo wanted to know.

It would not be impossible for the soldiers to inquire about it, but it would be too slow.

Since Huang Bing started the topic, Su Mo immediately seized the opportunity to get more information.

“Yup. Ever since the new territory lord took over Main Peak, new laws have been established.

“One of the new laws is that the residents on the main peak are divided into several different levels. According to the rankings, the lowest is Level 1, and the highest is Level 9. This decides the job positions and salaries within the territory.

“Right now, most people are still Level 1, and only those who have contributed to the territory are promoted to Level 2.

“It seems that the total number of people above Level 2 is just a little over three hundred if I’m not mistaken.”

Huang Bing puffed his chest. He did not clearly explain how he was promoted to a Level 2 resident, but it could be seen from his expression that he did not obtain it through his abilities.

For the most part, it was probably luck.
