Samsara Paradise: Dream Weaver of Connections.
Chapter 650 Black Market
In fact, the director of the Berchero Orphanage cannot be blamed for having a bad temper.
The children in the orphanage lost their parents when they were young. If the director shows kindness, many children will become more and more demanding.
It is precisely because of this that the dean has to present the appearance of a cold-faced devil now.
To be honest, the director of the Berchero Orphanage is actually a very nice person.
At least so far, no child in the entire Berchero Orphanage has died of illness or starvation.
Even if the children were injured while exploring the caves, the director would spend a lot of money to provide them with medical treatment.
Except for one or two orphans who die every year due to bad luck in going down to the cave, the rest are able to grow up healthy.
If it were a more ruthless orphanage, they would have treated orphans like Riko as consumables and forced them to dig for relics in Abyss to make money for themselves.
The curriculum at the Berchero Orphanage is very limited, and most of it is about caving.
As for other knowledge, the orphanage is powerless to teach even if it wants to. After all, teachers are an extremely scarce resource in this world.
In the evening, Lin Yi went out for a walk.
When he came back, he had two chickens, ten pounds of pork, ten pounds of beef, and several large bags of rice.
The dean did not refuse and accepted the food. After all, the children really needed good nutrition.
The saying "the little brat is eating his father out of house and home" is not an exaggeration at all.
70% of the orphanage’s income from each visit is spent on the orphans’ three meals a day.
Although meat is very expensive here, the director still tries his best to give the children a meal of meat every two or three days to help them replenish their bodies.
Fortunately, as a cave explorer, Kiruo is very capable and can bring back some relics from time to time, otherwise the finances of the orphanage would be even tighter.
At night, Lin Yi originally wanted to move out, but the dean told him that the children had already prepared a bed for him.
The dean heard about Lin Yi's background from Rico and Nado. She knew that Lin Yi might not be short of money, but this was a little token of their appreciation.
Lin Yi did not refuse the dean's kindness and moved into the room the children prepared for him.
It can be seen that the children cleaned the room very well.
There were still water stains on the floor left by the mop. The window next to the bed was half open, and the evening breeze blew into the room, quietly taking away a trace of moisture.
Through the window beside the bed, Lin Yi could just see the Abyss at night.
At night, the entrance to the Abyss is still brightly lit.
According to the information collected by Lin Yi, due to the abyss force field inside the Abyss, there is not much difference in light between night and day.
The first 300 meters of a layer may be affected by light, but once you go deeper than 300 meters, the light will basically not change much.
The technological level of the town of Oss is, in Lin Yi's words, distorted.
Due to the existence of relics, the world's technological progress does not rely on scientists advancing technology bit by bit, but rather on studying relics and deciphering how they work.
After thousands of years of development, 90% of the world's infrastructure now relies on the energy of the sun jade mined from the Abyss.
There is no way, the energy source of Sun Jade is simply too perfect.
It is pollution-free, has a lot of energy storage, is very easy to replace, and there are piles of this thing in the Abyss.
The fact that a group of orphans like Riko were able to dig out so much shows how worthless this thing is.
If the sun jade was valuable, it would have been mined out long ago. How could it be left for kids like Riko?
"Brother Lin, it's time to eat." Just as Lin Yi was staring at the Abyss with his mind wandering, Riko pushed open the door and signaled Lin Yi that it was time to eat.
Under the guidance of Rico, Lin Yi came to the restaurant of the orphanage.
Today, there are a lot of children from the orphanage coming to eat, and the entire table is packed.
The children's laughter echoed in the restaurant, adding a lot of warmth to this originally deserted place.
After seeing Lin Yi coming, Jiluo pulled open the chair on the left side of the main seat.
According to Lin Yi's understanding, Jiluo should be only seventeen or eighteen years old now. He has obtained the Moon Flute at such a young age. He is truly a genius boy.
[The intelligence attributes of both sides are being compared... The comparison is completed. Our intelligence attributes are 1.5 times that of the enemy's, and we have obtained 100% of the enemy's information. 】

……
Judging from the strength of Jiluo, he was able to directly defeat Bell Alger, whom Lin Yi met in the Cave Exploration Guild yesterday.
There is no doubt that the gap in strength between the two sides is too obvious.
Not to mention the difference in skills, just based on the attribute panel, Kiruo directly crushes Bell Alger.
All I can say is that Kiruo is worthy of being a disciple chosen by both [Lord Annihilation] Raiza and [Lord Immovable] Anson, and he does have his extraordinary qualities.
"What's wrong, Mr. Lin, is there something on my face?" Jiluo frowned slightly after feeling Lin Yi's gaze.
To be honest, Jiluo is still suspicious about Lin Yi's arrival.
After all, Lin Yi's identity and origin remain a mystery, and Kiruo is worried that Lin Yi is coming for Rico.
You know, Rico is the daughter of teacher Lisa. If some forces with ulterior motives find out about this, it will definitely cause a bloody storm.
If Lin Yi knew what Jiluo was thinking, he would only say that the young man’s result was right but the process was wrong.
Lin Yi’s target was indeed Rico, but he just wanted to get a ride.
Soon, a pot of stewed beef curry was brought up by the dean.
It’s not like the orphanage had never eaten curry before, but the amount of meat in the curry was always very small, nothing compared to this time.
This time the curry is filled with tender beef, exuding a rich aroma that makes you salivate.
The pork that Lin Yi brought back was made into fried pork chops, and three servings were placed on each person's plate.
Don’t underestimate the appetite of these children. They exercise a lot on a daily basis, which leads to their astonishing food intake.
"Okay, before we eat, let's thank the gods for the food they have given us." After the dean came in, he sat in the main seat. Then he clasped his hands together, solemnly began to confess, and looked very pious.
The children beside him did the same as Jiluo. They all put their hands together, bowed their heads slightly, and showed solemn expressions on their faces. Only Lin Yi rested his right hand on his head and watched the prayer ceremony in front of him with interest.
Five minutes later, everyone slowly opened their eyes and ended their prayer.
At this time, the dean seemed to notice Lin Yi's gaze, and then she remembered that Lin Yi was not a resident of Os.
"Sorry to have kept Mr. Lin waiting for so long. Let's eat quickly."
After the director gave the order, all the children in the orphanage couldn't wait to start eating.
The children's faces were filled with happy smiles as they enjoyed this rare delicacy.
"Dean, can I ask who you were praying to just now? According to the information I have, Oss does not seem to belong to the Western Church."
In this world, there is naturally a church that believes in gods, but the power of the church is very far away from Oss, and it is impossible for it to extend its tentacles to this place.
"The object of our faith is naturally the Abyss. It gives us food and life, and when we die, we will naturally return to the embrace of the Abyss." When the dean said this, his expression was extremely serious. Lin Yi could see that the dean was not joking.
In other words, the people here truly regard the Abyss as a god.
"Interesting." Lin Yi didn't say much, but picked up the spoon on the table and started eating the curry rice.
Perhaps it was because the seasonings here were produced from the abyss, which made Lin Yi feel that the flavors were unique when he ate them.
Lin Yi stopped after finishing two servings of curry and rice. As for the other children, Riko had finished three servings of curry and rice, and five servings of fried pork chops.
Nadal eats more than Lico, which shows how difficult it is for the dean to take care of these children on a daily basis.
At night, Lin Yi left the orphanage, saying that he was going to take a walk around, but in fact he was going to visit the slums in Os.
According to his understanding, places like slums where good and bad people mix together often hide a lot of unexpected information.
Moreover, Lin Yi also hoped to obtain some special relics there. After all, he had come to this world. If he didn’t bring back some good things, Lin Yi was afraid that he would not have enough Paradise Coins to buy the keys after he returned.
"Come out. You've followed me for an hour. Aren't you tired?" Lin Yi came to an ice cream stand, bought two ice creams, and then sat on a chair on the road.
He picked up an ice cream and said to a tree behind his left.
After more than ten seconds, a figure appeared from behind the tree, then came to Lin Yi and took the ice cream from Lin Yi's hand.
"How did you find me?" asked Kiruo a little confused.
When he was tracking just now, he was sure that he did not reveal any clues. How did Lin Yi sense his presence?
“Boy, tracking people and tracking beasts are two different methods. Your tracking method may be fine in the Abyss, but for humans, you are still a little too immature. When you look at people in the future, remember not to look directly at them, just glance at them with your peripheral vision.” Lin Yi put the ice cream ball on the cone in his hand into his mouth, feeling the sweetness melting on the tip of his tongue.
In fact, what Lin Yi mentioned were all minor problems. The most important thing was that Jiluo broke into Lin Yi's perception circle.
Such a big and conspicuous person, as long as Lin Yi is not a fool, he will know that he is being followed.
"So, who are you? What are you going to do by approaching Riko?" Kiruo asked without any nonsense.
During dinner, he paid special attention to Lin Yi and found that two-thirds of the time when Lin Yi looked up, he was looking at Riko.
Although Kiroo could sense that Lin Yi had no ill will towards Riko, he definitely wanted to know Lin Yi's purpose.
"Me? To be honest, I just want to hitchhike." Lin Yi's words came out calmly.
Hearing Lin Yi's answer, Jiluo frowned, obviously he didn't understand the meaning of Lin Yi's words.
"It's okay, you'll know when the time comes. Anyway, it's enough for you to know that I have no ill will towards Liko." Lin Yi leaned back in his chair, slowly finished the ice cream in his hand, and then threw the entire ice cream cone into the trash can beside him.
Kiruo lowered his head and looked at the ground, his eyes showing a thoughtful look.
"It's a good coincidence that you're here. Do you know where the black market in Oss Town is?"
"Black market? What do you want to buy?" Jiluo was stunned for a moment and looked up at Lin Yi.
"Nonsense, of course it's relics. Now that you've come to Oss, if you don't buy a few relics, wouldn't it be a waste of your trip?" Lin Yi said helplessly.
There was no way. According to the information Lin Yi had learned, most of the relics sold by the Cave Exploration Guild were useless level 4 relics, and there were very few level 3 relics.
Level 2 and level 1 relics basically will not flow out, and are usually consumed independently by the cave explorers within the cave exploring guild.
As for the special-grade relics, they are definitely not for sale. If any cave exploration team has a special-grade relic, it can be said that they will never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives.
"Come with me." Jiluo quickly threw the remaining half of the ice cream in his hand into his mouth, then stood up and motioned Lin Yi to follow him.
Seeing this, Lin Yi immediately followed Jiluo's steps.
About half an hour later, the two had left the center of Oss Town and came to the edge of Oss Town.
Here, Lin Yi could clearly feel that the flow of people had decreased a lot.
The streets seemed a bit deserted, in stark contrast to the hustle and bustle of the town center.
Most of the people hanging around were hiding themselves, even the homeless people on both sides of the street had fierce looks in their eyes, but when they saw the moon flute on Kiruo's neck, they curled up their bodies to avoid being noticed by Kiruo.
You have to know that the level of cave explorers in this world is not for show. If you can become a cave explorer like Cangdi, basically you are no longer someone that these little gangsters dare to disturb.
As for cave explorers at Yue Di's level, the gang leaders of these small-time thugs are no match for them.
"Boss, this kid is actually Yuedi? He couldn't have stolen something from his family, right? Do you want to go over and grab some?" A gangster looked at Jiluo with confusion on his face, greed and adventure flashing in his eyes.
"Fuck you, if you miss, go ahead and die. I haven't lived enough." The gang leader's eyes were wide open and he glared fiercely at his ignorant subordinate.
"That guy is Jiluo. You'd better be more careful next time. If you offend him, even the boss can't save you." The leader looked at Jiluo with a fearful look as he walked over with an expressionless face. His heart was full of fear.
These new recruits don't know how powerful Jiluo is, but he knows it very well.
When Jiluo had just become Cang Di, he came here directly and wiped out a small gang.
That battle shocked everyone, and from then on, the Belchero Orphanage became a forbidden area.
Otherwise, how could there be no gang that wants to get involved in such a big piece of fat meat? However, anyone who wanted to do so was killed by Killuo.
"It seems like you are quite famous here." Lin Yi noticed that the gangsters here all showed expressions of disbelief after seeing Jiluo's face, and then their faces changed drastically, for fear of being noticed by Jiluo.
"Nothing. We just wiped out two blind gangs before." Jiluo's tone was flat, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
"As expected of Lisa's apprentice, like master, like apprentice." Lin Yi revealed Kiruo's identity at once.
Hearing Lin Yi's words, Jiluo paused for a moment. After turning his head and looking at Lin Yi meaningfully, Jiluo continued on his way.
"I am not as good as my master. If it were my master, all the gang members here would be thrown into the Abyss and become food for the Weeping Birds." After hearing what Jirou said, Lin Yi did not refute.
What can I say about Lady Annihilation Lisa? Just from her nickname you can get a rough idea of her personality.
Among the white flutes, Lisa's fighting ability is also extremely strong.
Back then, Ryza failed in her mission to steal the special relic, the "Clock that Stops Time", because she was pregnant with Riko.
After Orson and Ryza sent Rico up, Ryza rushed into the enemy country alone and snatched back the special relic [Clock that Stops Time]. This shows how terrifying Ryza's fighting power is. (End of this chapter)
