While Shen Fu and the others were having a friendly conversation with Uncle Fruit, Yang Zhijun also entered the final stage of preparation.

Almost half of the soldiers who came to the other world this time were dispatched, and a full thirty of them were fully armed. Considering the opponent's strong mobility, the weapons prepared were mainly micro-charges and machine guns that could continuously fire.

Yang Zhijun stood at the front of the team, parked next to three armored vehicles that had been locked together with iron chains. He was giving a final mobilization speech.

"Everyone, our first battle in another world is about to begin. Although this is only a small-scale battle, it is of great significance. As the first shot fired in another world, I can definitely say that this It will definitely be recorded in history.

Therefore, we must not only win, but also win beautifully. You are all aces in the army, elites among the elites. Do you want your names to appear in the textbooks of your descendants in a humiliating way? Do you want to leave a failed start for the People's Liberation Army? "

"In no mood!"

"Very good, what is needed is this kind of confidence, but you must remember that the opponent is very fast and has far more strength than any enemy you have seen before. Don't expect to fight in close combat with the opponent. This is a time without any precedent. battle. So check your stab-resistant suits one last time, especially the steel plates on your abdomen. Everyone, the rise of the country is right in front of you, and I don’t want to see any of you sacrificed on the starting line! So, get in the car and get ready now!"

. . . . . .

While the troops were getting ready, Shen Fu also ended his conversation with the fruit stall uncle.

"Is it a slum? I finally have a clue. So, to save time, I'll take you there directly."

After thanking the fruit vendor, he estimated the time. Elsa should be on her way to the slums at this time, so she had to speed up here.

"Take me there? You mean, just like you took that boy away before?"

"Yes, that's my natural ability. I can go anywhere I want instantly."

"Wow." Parker flew to Shen Fu and looked him up and down, "Anywhere you want to go? That's really a convenient ability, Emilia, I want to try it too."

"Really, don't bother others just because it's convenient." Emilia hesitated, and it wouldn't take long to walk from here to the slums.

"It's okay, it's not troublesome at all. We've already wasted a lot of time. The sun will set if we delay any longer." Shen Fu stretched out his hand to the girl.

It seemed that the sentence "The sun is about to set" had shaken the girl, and she did not persist this time.

"I will definitely thank you formally when the things are recovered."

——Emilia finally said this.

In just an instant, everyone changed positions.

"What? I didn't feel anything at all. I thought I would at least be dizzy or something."

Parker stood on Amelia's shoulders, stretched out his paws and kicked his legs, and found that he felt no discomfort at all.

"So, it's a very convenient ability."

Shen Fu smiled and looked around him. He appeared here when he first came to this world. At that time, it happened that Felut appeared not far in front of him, so he saw it at a glance. I recognized what world this was.

The ghetto is a very nasty looking place.

The air seemed to be exuding an aura of chaos, the environment was dark and humid, and there was no one to clean up the stinky garbage everywhere.

The group of people seemed out of place as soon as they appeared here. Not to mention Amelia, who was stunning in appearance and uniquely dressed, Shen Fu and the other three were also neatly dressed, with their heads held high and their chests raised, and their faces plump. However, almost all the residents here were in ragged clothes and had sallow complexions.

Emilia felt a little uncomfortable. She had seen the way these people looked at her from countless people. It was disgust mixed with fear. Although she was used to it, she still felt uneasy every time she faced them.

"Shen Fu", she couldn't help but pull Shen Fu's sleeve.

"How are we going to find a place to sell the stolen goods?"

If you ask these people, they probably won't answer, and the girl knows it very well.

"Just follow me."

Shen Fu smiled mysteriously and did not answer, but led Emilia directly and skillfully into the alley and into an inconspicuous-looking wooden house.

Everything in the wooden house looks consistent with the characteristics of the slums, with dusty old furniture, a pungent smell, and a poor man wearing shabby clothes lying lazily on the ground.

"Where is the place where stolen goods are sold here?"

Shen Fu didn't talk nonsense and asked questions directly.

"Lord Rom's stolen goods storehouse is located in the deepest place against the wall of the royal capital. The largest wooden house is there."

To Emilia's surprise, the poor man on the ground just glanced at her with slightly squinted eyes, and quickly answered Shen Fu's question.

"What's going on?"

Emilia followed Shen Fu out of the wooden house, glaring at the blue-purple colored contacts like a curious baby.

"That civilian must be one of yours."

Before Shen Fu could answer, Parker forcefully spoke out. It had already discovered that although the civilian was in ragged clothes and had a yellowish complexion, it was all made up. In fact, the strength of his muscles was not at all like that of a poor man who had been malnourished for a long time. .

"That's right", Shen Fu nodded.

"Slums are the place where you can best see the dirt behind a country's prosperity. As envoys from a foreign country, we must have a certain understanding of these, because this may affect the trade between our two countries."

"Dirt...?"

Emilia turned her head to look at the dilapidated wooden house behind her, thinking about the mess she had seen before and the eyes of the poor people looking at her, and her fingers unconsciously clenched her sleeves.

I guess... I guess they would still look at me like that even if I wasn't a half-elf.

The kind-hearted Emilia began to face up to her status as a candidate for king for the first time, wondering if she would be able to stop the poor from looking at her and the nobles in this way if she became the king.

"Okay, we're here."

They didn't walk for long, and soon, Shen Fu interrupted Emilia's thinking with a voice. What appeared in front of them was a wooden house that was much larger than they imagined, and it looked solid and solid. It was backed by a tall city wall, and it had a rough majesty in this dilapidated slum.

Shen Fu took a deep breath. From what the intelligence agent said just now, he actually got two other pieces of information. This was the statement that had been discussed before. If Felt had come back and Elsa hadn't appeared yet, then the intelligence agent The answer to his question was just like that, not a single word wrong!
