Seeing the exploded rats` heads people began looking back and immediately noticed a young man in a strange coat. But for understanding who he was and why he had helped them was no time, there were still a lot of monsters to fight back.
At the same time, Stroph was wondering if he should kill a couple more. When he made his decision he loaded the "Last Light" again with electromagnetic cartridges, put his hand under the coat and placed it in his inventory. He had already destroyed seven rats in the blink of an eye, that`s enough.
Stroph was just going to wait quietly aside until people in front of him would deal with everything, it was unlikely that any of them would die. But at that moment the voice of "Snow White Darkness" was heard in Stroph's head:
After its words, all the rats began to run away in the blink of an eye and people`s legs started shaking with fear. All their eyes were directed to Stroph.
Just at the very moment when "Snow White Darkness" finished talking, it released its terrifying aura. The instinct of self-preservation didn`t give the rats a second to think, they immediately rushed away from this incredible aura.
People felt as if they were facing a demon from the hell, none of them couldn`t move and even to say something was an impossible task.
Stroph didn`t expect that "Snow White Darkness" would decide to take part by itself, but he didn`t see anything wrong in it. Moreover, it would even be easier for him to learn from these people the information he needed.
When all the rats had ran away, the terrifying aura disappeared and Stroph calmly headed towards the group of people. At that moment, he asked his partner:
Stroph didn`t answer anything, but his thoughts were spinning in his head: Also, Stroph got 1 common point, 5 history coins and increased the mastery of "Last Light" by 0.1% and the mastery of "Snow White Darkness" by 0.000001%. When he approached a group of people, some of them immediately moved away from him and there was a deep fear in their eyes, the rats were nothing compared to this unthinkable aura. For some time nobody was speaking and that is why Stroph decided to destroy the silence: "Who is in charge?" he said calmly and clearly. He had to understand how everything was arranged here and that`s why he needed a manager of all this business. On hearing him, one man answered with awe: "I`ll take you there! Please, follow me!" After these words he turned around and walked forward. Other people were surprised by his decision, but didn`t say anything. They had visitors quite rarely, but in any case they had to check him carefully before missing someone, but after what they had seen they didn`t want to get close to this young man. Stroph just nodded a little and followed the man. They were walking for about 10 minutes, for all this time Stroph saw nothing but an abandoned tunnel full of cobwebs and mud. In the end they reached a huge iron wall, in the center of which was a huge metal door. On the left, there was also another door, right in the wall, it was an ordinary wooden door and surprisingly to Stroph, in quite a good condition. The man with a rifle knocked on the door for three times, then he opened it and entered, inviting Stroph inside by gesture. They were under ground, in an old abandoned metro, but the walls in the room behind the door were made of real wood. The room was quite large, there were also a couple of doors leading somewhere else. In the center of the room there was a large round table, apparently made of oak and a man about 50 years old was sitting at it. He had short gray hair, a little white-haired on his temples. He was smoking a large cigar and was looking through something in the tablet, lying in his right hand. He had rather muscular build and he was wearing a classical gray vest and ordinary black pants. He looked at Stroph and the man with a rifle, after which the second one immediately removed. Then he gestured to Stroph to sit down. Stroph didn`t resist and just sat down in front of him. When he saw Stroph's actions, the man took a cigar out of his mouth and said: "Boy, who are you? And what are you doing here?" His voice was very hoarse and he exuded confidence in himself. Stroph didn`t answer his questions, but instead he asked his own, 'Where am I? And who are you? I'm ready to pay". He didn't want to stay here long and if it was possible to solve it quickly with money, he was ready for it. When he heard about the money, the man's eyes immediately sparkled. He continued looking through something on the tablet and said: "One question is 3,000 sempets". Stroph immediately said: "Two thousand. The questions will be a lot more than enough." Starting to bargain, he immediately began looking closely at the man's face and after a couple of seconds, he saw only a slight nod. Thanks to his skills, he understood very well that there was no sense in trying to reduce the price. After that, there was a series of questions and answers. "What kind of place is this? "Metro-03, the underground way to Terein city." "Who are you?" "I am the chief of the roadblock, as you have seen, monsters often attack us." "…" Their dialogue lasted quite a long time, the man answered clearly to Stroph`s questions, but didn`t mention a lot of unnecessary things. In total, Stroph asked 18 questions, which cost him 36 thousand semptes. But he learned quite a lot, the most important thing was that, as it was shown on the map, Metro-03 really led to the city of Terein. Besides this the intersection of Metro-02 and Metro-03 was the border of Terein, it could be said that as soon as he had passed through the checkpoint, he was in the city. But there was only a wasteland above them and to get to the city he would have to go by train, which was right behind that metal door. Also the man with a cigar, was not only responsible for the roadblock and all Metro-03, but, as Stroph realized, he was quite an important bump in the organization "Silver Carp". The city of Terein was governed by three main organizations: "Silver Carps", "Thunder" and "Anarchy". There were also many smaller organizations, but these three were the main pillars and rulers of Terein. Although the man didn`t answer for some questions, Stroph didn`t care much. When he learned all the necessary information, it was time to get out of here, so Stroph said: "When will the train arrive and how much does it cost to get to the city?" The man took a puff, blew it out and after a short pause said: "In 30 minutes it will be here, be ready to lay out another ten." For a couple of seconds he was silent and then he continued, "I think it's time for you to go, guy. The exit is there". Saying this, he pointed his thumb at the door on his right. When he saw his gesture, Stroph slowly rose and walked towards the door. At that moment he thought:
