i became a shadow

Chapter 180 Ge Weng's Night

At the same time, at night in Geweng Great Forest, the unfinished Seventh City was brightly lit, and the busy crowd finally ushered in a rest.

Under the lush branches and leaves of a relatively remote giant tree, sparse shadows swayed and swayed, covering the round table.

Several workers are gathered together, feasting and enjoying a sumptuous dinner.

There were smiles on their faces, and their expressions were very satisfied.

"cheers!"

In addition to excitement, there was also a hint of emotion in the voice.

"I didn't expect that I could taste such delicious and mellow wine in my lifetime. It feels like a dream. It's incredible."

Andrew picked up the simple but full wine glass, and drank it boldly. The mellow and strong aroma of the wine lingered on the tip of his tongue, and he couldn't finish his words.

At the same time, his right hand was not idle, he directly picked up the unknown monster meat on the round table, and took a big bite.

The so-called life is nothing more than that.

"It's thanks to that mysterious and great nobleman, otherwise we would still be fleeing now."

The companion agreed. It was good to have food, not to mention such good food. When I was a farmer before, I was very happy if I had a meal of meat for ten days.

But like this, the meal is full of fish and meat, and the wine is full. To be honest, let alone seen it, I have never even heard of it.

However, when the facts are right in front of our eyes, people cannot help but believe them.

"Tell me, what kind of person is that mysterious nobleman?"

Chatting during meals is an indispensable link forever. Everyone paused when they heard the words, showing a look of serious thinking.

They have been here for several days, and naturally they gradually became clear about the real master behind this unfinished city.

No matter the vicious-looking dragon or the gentle and gentle Master Orvis, they are all subordinates of the mysterious city lord.

There is already a step of status in the heart of the crowd, which is divided into four steps in total.

First, there is no doubt that the mysterious Lord City Lord.

Second, Holy Lord, the commander-in-chief of the construction area of ​​the seventh city.

Third, Design Administrator Orvis.

Fourth, the powerful and hard-working Sombra Legion.

"Should be a gentle and kind person."

Andrew filled his glass again.

"A head of pale but majestic curly hair, with a kind and kind smile on his face, and wearing a gorgeous and smooth robe!"

"Hey, you are Bishop Guangming!"

"It's almost there!"

Everyone was talking and laughing, feeling that the exhaustion from a busy day was slowly fading away.

Andrew also shook his head and laughed, letting the cool wind blow, looking at the bright and warm lights around him, he was curious besides joy.

"I heard that these lamps don't need spirit spar stones to replenish energy at all, they all rely on the so-called electricity..."

Spirit spar is a special mineral, it contains a small amount of flowing energy, which cannot be absorbed by people, and it mainly acts on lighting objects such as lights.

Lixing Academy uses this special mineral, but due to environmental reasons, the output is not high, and it has almost cut off relations with ordinary people.

"Electricity, that is, the storm is about to come, that shocking, flashing light."

The companion shrank his neck, which sounded scary.

Andrew waved his hand and explained.

"No, I heard Master Orvis explain that the electricity we use is not obtained from the sky, but generated from their bodies..."

He pointed to the tall buildings on top of the mountain, the pillars of buildings that resembled windmills, and took a look at the solar energy equipment that can be exposed to the sun for the first time every day, and finally fixed his gaze on a strange factory.

At the huge machinery factory, shadow warriors patrolled back and forth, with a bright luster on the surface of the white metal skin.

At the entrance of the gate, the hard tempered glass was opened on both sides, and the soldiers of the troll regiment led the stubborn monsters into it.

The monsters are all fire-type, even though their eyes are full of resistance, they still can't hold back the horror and strange power of the trolls.

Dragged into the dark abyss of sin.

"It's a thermal power plant. It seems that the principle is the same as boiling water. I don't understand it either. It's probably similar."

Andrew took everything into his eyes, and once again felt at ease about the strength of this city.

To them, monsters exist like nightmares, but in the hands of these "people", they are like immature chickens, weak and fragile.

"Those things were installed by us a few days ago. Master Orvis also said that everyone can take a comfortable hot bath. I didn't believe it at first..."

The few people joked with each other, and the days were full of comfort. At night, the breeze played like a song, and the wine glasses reflected people's happy faces.

At this time, one of the companions suddenly sighed, his eyes revealing hope.

"I wish I could live here forever."

From the previous resistance to the current law of Zhenxiang, it only took two days for him to completely degenerate.

"Who wouldn't want to, besides working a little harder, drinking and eating meat every day, taking a hot bath, and sleeping on a soft bed, it's like heaven."

The companions were equally moved.

They also boldly asked Orvis, but the other party just said that everything is decided by adults, and he is just a part-time worker.

Although they didn't understand what part-time work meant, their obedient tone made them uneasy even if Master Orvis couldn't decide.

After all, life is good, who wants to go back to the previous life without knowing the next meal.

"Don't think too much, finish the work with peace of mind, at least now we have something to eat." Andrew said.

Everyone nodded, saying yes.

On the other side, under the bright lights, the little girl was sitting alone on the ground, eating food by herself.

Her dirty and shabby clothes have been dealt with, and what she is wearing at the moment is uniform overalls.

Although the fabric is very common, it is unknown how many times stronger than the former.

The white light shone on her clean face, the little girl silently gnawed on the jerky, and the shadow under her feet followed suit.

"Eat alone again."

An older voice came from behind. The man raised his head and drank heavily, his face showing a faint flush of drunkenness.

"Well, I'm used to it."

The little girl quickly turned her head away, not looking at the noisy scene of the crowd, and responded with a smile.

The man didn't make a sound, but his eyes were full of helplessness and bewilderment.

Of course he knew that the other party didn't like or even was afraid of being alone, but he was very resistant to blending in, and one time he asked specifically about it.

It's a pity that the little girl didn't say anything, but her shoulders shook violently, and her head was buried so deep that it was hard to see her expression clearly.

He could still vaguely hear the sound of sobbing and choking, his throat seemed to be stuck, and he kept whispering very hoarsely.

"sorry Sorry……"

That was the first time the man saw the fragile side of this persistent little girl.

At that time, she hugged her ugly scarred calf tightly with her dirty arms, and curled up in the cold corner of the wall.

Her body was still trembling, she didn't know if it was from the cold or from being too sad, she cried with all her strength before she fell heavily and fell asleep.

Since then, the man has never asked again.

"It's okay, it's safe here, don't worry."

He slowly sat beside the other party and comforted him.

"Ok!"

The little girl nodded in response, this place is indeed safe...

"Ow!"

Suddenly, the ferocious cry of the monster echoed in the surrounding fields, and pairs of scarlet eyes flickered in the dark forest in the distance.
