861 First Time Stepping Foot into the Territory, City of Money! Part 1
After eight years, the overall terrain of the vast wasteland had gone through countless transformations due to the disasters.
Humans and foreign races that lived in the Deep Sea were forced to migrate to the New World because of the increased intensity of the disasters.
Unfortunately, the New World’s area had not increased much in the past eight years.
With insufficient land to accommodate the numbers, disputes began to form throughout the New World.
Although Heaven’s Origin was not interested in war, the northern parts of the territory were close to the coastline and were often attacked by foreign stragglers.
Therefore, according to the location distribution, the division of labor in the three major cities was also very clear.
Hope City focused on the territory’s economy and was located in the center, giving it the safest geographical conditions to drive economic development.
Heaven’s Origin City focused on military development and was located on the west side of the territory, nearby the Million Dwarves Country. The city consisted of numerous military research institutes and large-scale war facilities to prevent ambushes from the dwarves.
The Murloc City focused on special economics and was located on the northern side of the territory, where small wars were frequent. The city’s primary responsibility was to guard the territory’s rear ends.
Heaven’s Origin’s four major super-monopoly companies and hundreds of small to medium-sized development companies.
Driven by these three cities, the territory had achieved a strong balance in all aspects and occupied vast amounts of land despite having less population than other massive territories.
At the same time, some surrounding human territories that maintained independent status on the surface had long become affiliated cities of Heaven’s Origin.
Every once in a while, these territories sent caravans to trade various commodities with Hope City.
Remote territories would also seek opportunities in Hope City to further develop their territory.
With this batch of “real” foreign population, Hope City kept expanding and gradually formed into three areas outside the city’s core.
One was called “Terminator” and garrisoned as the city defense army.
One was called “Luna,” which was responsible for trading, temporary residence, catering, and so on. It mainly functioned as an exchange center for outsiders.
One was called the “Mulberry Field,” which provided assistance in agriculture. There were hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile and experimental fields of various unique crop varieties in this town.
The train station location was right inside Luna Town, which was the outermost part of Hope City.
It was only noon when the sun hung brightly in the sky, causing a wave of scorching heat.
However, there was quite a big crowd outside the Hope Station waiting to board the train to other territories, pick up relatives, sell small commodities, and passengers that were here to enter the city.
Su Mo, Huang Xiaojuan, and Oreo were guided outside of the train’s back door by Wang Quan. After mixing with the crowd of people and verifying his identity at the exit point, Su Mo finally took off his mask and sighed with relief.
As soon as he arrived in Hope City, Su Mo felt slightly overwhelmed.
Compared to Hope Village eight years ago, Hope City’s current development was so huge that he could barely recognize the place and connect it to the place in his memories.
The landmarks like Fruit Tree Mountain and Iron Rock Mountain had vanished.

As far as he could see from the station, there were planned asphalt roads and six to seven-story high-rise buildings that gave off the feeling that he had returned to the era of civilization.
Additionally, the scene before him was much more familiar…
“Yo, buddy! You new here?”
“Taxi ride! Taxi ride!”
“Motorcycle ride! Motorcycle ride!”
“Are you headed to Luna Town or Mulberry Field Town? I’ve got an energy car here that can fit three people. I’ll take you there for one exchange point. Great ride experience assured!”
“…”
As soon as they saw the crowd pouring out of the exit gate, the “drivers” who had been waiting at the gate for a long time rushed over like bees smelling the fragrance of flowers.
Many of them noticed that although Su Mo had a pretty ordinary appearance, his walking posture and temperament were extraordinary.
Therefore, many drivers with energy cars quickly gathered around him and started advertising and offering services.
Su Mo raised his eyebrows after he found one that looked pleasing to the eye and shook his hand.
The other party immediately began to lead the way excitedly. After countless turns around the station, they finally arrived at a slightly worn-out tricycle in the parking lot.
“Haha! Don’t underestimate my old car! It has quite a few functions!”
While speaking, the tan man stepped forward and inserted his key.
As soon as he pressed the button on the energy car, the rear seat began to slowly transform.
First, four rods sprung up, and then a curtain-like cloth was raised on both sides. The man tugged and pulled the cloth, blocking the harsh sunlight from the previously open-air carriage.
“Ha! That looks handy!”
After touching the supporting rod and realizing that this thing was not an ordinary iron rod, but an alloy-like substance, Su Mo was impressed.
There were two ways to judge a territory’s development-the limit of its cutting-edge technology and the degree to which civilians use standard technology.
It was clear that Heaven’s Origin was developing at a rapid pace seeing that even a driver outside the train station was using alloy.
“Sir, where are you headed? Luna Town or Mulberry Field Town? According to the pricing standards, it’ll cost 0.3 exchange points for two people and one dog to Luna Town.”
“Mulberry Field Town is slightly farther away, so it’ll cost 0.5 exchange points.”
After assisting the two people and one dog into the carriage, the tan-skinned man took out a paper titled “Hope City Public Passenger Price List” and handed it over.
“It must be your first time here. You don’t have to worry. The territory now strictly regulates everything. Things like taxi drivers overcharging back on Earth are impossible here!
“You could file a complaint about me at the transportation department if I charge you over by one extra point. I’d be arrested and forced to do hard labor tomorrow. It’s not going to be worth it for me to overcharge!”
Seeing that Su Mo was reading the explanation behind the price list, the tan-skinned man was not in a rush. After briefly explaining the fee, he took a water bottle from the back seat and drank some water.
“Alright, thanks! We’re headed to Luna Town.”
