“Currency”
The transaction currency used in God’s City-Akamagan is neither paper money nor gold, silver, or copper coins, and it is not bartered either.
In this ‘deformed’ city, there exists a unique and non-replicable currency closely tied to an individual’s life.
To obtain such currency, one must undergo a “wallet surgery.”
Han Dong enjoyed this surgery for free within the [Colosseum].
A black tubular container (wallet) was implanted into his right forearm; due to the container’s size, half of the wallet was exposed on the surface of his right arm.
The exposed part of this tubular container also had capacity markings.
The “wallet” also came equipped with a special interface to facilitate “receiving” and “paying.”
Since the wallet is an embedded container, the currency was clear… Black Water.
Known as the ‘origin of everything’ and the ‘fundamental of God’s City,’ Black Water is the only circulating currency in this deformed city.
Of course, as Han Dong initially tested, the quality of Black Water inherently varied.
This widely circulating Black Water in God’s City, as a unified currency, was of higher quality than what Han Dong had seen outside the planet… According to Han Dong’s test results, it was of ‘medium-low’ quality.
The Black Water stored in the container on Han Dong’s arm, which equated to two months’ salary, was exactly 200mL.
Black Water of a quality lower than this could not be recognized by the “wallet.”
And Black Water of a higher standard than the general grade would not be stored in the wallet but traded in a special manner… It was difficult to exchange general Black Water for high-quality Black Water.
The ‘premium goods,’ comparable to diamonds in human society, only circulated among the upper echelons or in darker corners.
…
The roads were uniformly arranged with large ribs and cement.
The street lights were spherical luminous bodies resembling the bioluminescent sacs of fireflies, continuously providing light to the city.
The architecture in the city still retained some elements of Ancient Egypt’s sturdy building style, using stable geometric shapes like squares and triangles often in architectural design… while also incorporating alien biological machinery styles.

Designs symbolizing human body tissues were used in the architecture.
For example, some column structures resembled fingers or bones,
some round domes were like coiling intestines,
and the exterior walls were covered with a layer of soft material, irregular and rugged, much like the interior of a biological entity,
and there were even many buildings that completely abandoned traditional Egyptian architecture, directly based on internal organs, creating bizarrely styled ‘Organ Buildings.’
Meanwhile, the streets were also bustling with activity.
Various living vehicles, wrapped in skeletal shells and muscle tissues, moved swiftly on the roads.
Some vehicles retained the structure of biological ‘legs and feet,’ while others replaced them with ‘wheels,’ but all these vehicles required Black Water as the driving force.
The drivers sat in the ‘body cavity’ of the vehicles, warm and comfortable, even capable of engaging in some unspeakable activities.
As for those walking on the streets, they all appeared to be ‘fully armed.’
Either accompanied by a group of strong slaves,
or equipped with biological weapons styled like bones on their arms,
or directly wearing a full set of exoskeleton armor,
robberies seemed to occur frequently in God’s City.
Regarding the slavery system and laws of God’s City, Han Dong had not read about them… but such severe social stratification also dictated that the city was hardly stable.
With this in mind.
Han Dong touched the “John’s Spine” embedded in his own back.
He himself had a piece of personal protective equipment and carried Maritzis, this “slave”, with him. They didn’t look much different from the other pedestrians and generally wouldn’t be targeted.
Even if they encountered trouble, they could bring out the [Colosseum] as their banner.
Considering the massive building corresponding to the [Colosseum], such an organization was at least of medium to large size within the City of Gods.
“So this is the City of Gods? A city born from the combination of high-end biotechnology and Ancient Egypt civilization… It truly is an eye-opening experience.”
The moment Han Dong saw this sight, his gaze revealed a hint of longing.
Compared to the skyscrapers, network communications, and electronic technology of his previous world, Han Dong was more inclined towards a world dominated by biomaterials.
Perhaps this was closely related to Han Dong’s own expertise.
Standing on the street and looking at the city for the first time, Han Dong’s body quivered slightly with excitement, unable to resist the urge to deeply analyze such a beautiful city.
“It’s our first time heading to the City of Gods, so it might be better to disguise ourselves a bit… Miss Maritzis, could you please imitate the appearance of other ‘slaves’ and follow behind me with your head down.”
“You! No… I do not agree!”
Maritzis was a distinguished Ancestor Body. Having nominally become Han Dong’s ‘temporary slave’ was already a significant mental adjustment for her, and now she was actually expected to pretend to be a slave, trailing behind.
Seeing this, Han Dong had no choice but to activate another slave mode – companion.
On the streets, many people did the same, even embracing both a shy, beautiful girl on the left and a muscular, strong man on the right.
Han Dong too imitated other slave masters, his right hand slowly moving to grasp Maritzis’s waist, pulling her towards him.
A completely different touch.
It was different from the touch of Mia, Vino, Miss Jane, and Captain Shaia… soft yet very elastic, perhaps due to the special material of the toad skin.
Also, as Maritzis belonged to an amphibian species, she retained a lot of moisture.
When Han Dong embraced her, his palm was immediately covered in moisture… slippery yet resilient.
“… I reluctantly allow you to do this.”
Such behavior also would not make Maritzis feel ‘inferior’.
Meanwhile, Han Dong’s name was also recorded by Maritzis in her mating notebook… Intimate contact was also within the permitted range.
If this scene were to be transmitted back to the Holy City, the council members would probably be so shocked they couldn’t speak. Inside the city was a law-abiding knight, yet outside, he was embracing and cuddling with an Ancestor Body…
Soon.
Han Dong found a fairly decent formal inn.
A pot-bellied owner was wearing a kind of “neural access” skullcap, watching a memory movie embedded inside the helmet.
Sensing the approach of a customer.
A super-sized muscle shotgun was directly pressed against Han Dong’s head as a way to greet the customer.
“How long will you stay?”
“As long as possible.”
“Huh?”
As the owner removed his skullcap, Han Dong also revealed a token that could represent the [Colosseum].
“Oh, you’re from the Colosseum… I’ll give you a discount.
If it’s a long-term stay, it averages 1.5 milliliters per day. You need to pay ten days of room fees in advance.”
When the owner finished speaking, he stretched out his own arm, making contact with Han Dong’s arm… Under conscious permission, the “wallets” interfaced, completing the transaction.
