Ye An

With the joint efforts of the ant colony and Haicheng people, the reconstruction project of Haicheng went smoothly.

On the ruins of the past, unique buildings have sprung up.

Tall buildings and spacious single-family buildings are divided into areas, row upon row.The outer layer of the building is covered with shells of various colors and finely crushed pebbles, which glisten in the sun and are particularly eye-catching.

Before the rebuilding project started, Xiao Yun re-planned the old city and made many changes referring to the layout of Ancheng.Only the Colosseum has not changed at all, it still maintains its original appearance.

The ant colony seems to be tireless, busy day and night, carrying batch after batch of building materials, and the nearby large blocks of stone are almost emptied, and all of them are piled up outside the city, forming stone mountains in a short period of time.Not long after the stone mountains were piled up, they were emptied by ants one after another and became part of the buildings in the city.

The gathered descendants of Haicheng were equally busy, including the elderly, all assigned to work within their ability, or helping to decorate buildings, or leveling streets, or attaching decorative materials to city walls and building exterior walls, making new buildings more beautiful.

The docks outside the city were the first to be completed.

Since the original wharf had been abandoned and all the long bridges deep into the sea were destroyed, Xiao Yun personally led people to search for materials, laid a stone foundation in the water again, and laid a long bridge that could accommodate ten people abreast.

Not far from the pier, whenever the sea tide ebbs, there will be a sea route leading directly to a small island opposite.

When Haicheng was prosperous, the island was equally lively.As a supply place for the fleet and a resting place for some ships, there is a lighthouse tens of meters high built on the island, with lights that stay on day and night. It is a unique landmark in Haicheng.

After the destruction of Haicheng, the island gradually fell into decline and was deserted. For 30 years, seabirds have been the only occasional sightings, nesting in the dilapidated buildings.

Xiao Yun led people to the island, and happened to meet a group of skuas.

These mutated seabirds are ferocious and cunning.The team that encountered the investigation before, relying on the advantage of numbers to besiege, directly drove back the few people who were driving the boat.Now that they encountered a large army, they decided that they were not opponents, so they fluttered their wings and flew away.

The little skuas have grown up and can travel with their parents, otherwise the adult skuas would not leave so simply.

After the skuas left, there was no other life on the island, only dilapidated buildings, abandoned bird nests, and bird feathers curled up in the sea breeze.

Xiao Yun boarded a reef, looked around, and roughly grasped the layout of the island.

Since the detection team was driven away, the information everyone had was not comprehensive. Their landing and advancing routes were all based on the memories of the old people, and there would inevitably be differences in the details.After all, in the past 30 years, the island will definitely change.

Fortunately, the problem is not big, as long as you are careful, it will not hinder this operation.

"Look!" Jason suddenly exclaimed, pointing his finger in the direction of the lighthouse, in disbelief, "It's still on?"

Everyone followed the prestige, and saw tall buildings standing tall, with white light reflected from the top of the semicircular tower.Surrounded by four pillars, dazzling light shoots out from the tower, covering the surrounding area, almost competing with the sunlight.

It's clearly not a flare.

"It is said that it is a rare ore." Rose climbed to the height, raised the binoculars, and saw it more clearly than everyone else.

Hearing this, Jason's heart became hot when he thought of what the old man in Haicheng said.

"I gonna go see!"

Xiao Yun didn't stop him, and pointed out a few more people on the spot to let them go with Jason.

There are roses in the ranks.

Facing Rose's half-smile, Jason subconsciously touched the bruised place.He looked at Xiao Yun pitifully, but was ignored on the spot.In desperation, he didn't dare to say anything, checked the equipment on his body, and set off with a few people.

Xiao Yun and his party landed on the east side of the island, and the lighthouse is located in the southwest of the island.If Jason and the others want to reach their destination, they need to cross half of the island.

There have been no people for many years, the buildings on the island are dilapidated, and various mutated plants grow wildly, vying for each other's territory.Even if there are no mutant beasts, the risk factor is not small.

Jason lined up in a long line, with three to four steps between them.This distance can not only ensure that the companions are within the field of vision, but also ensure that once someone falls into danger, others have sufficient time to respond and rescue.

The team passed through a dense tall grass, and the original green carpet suddenly changed color.Fist-sized buds appear in pieces, competing to bloom in the sea breeze.

The rich floral fragrance spreads quickly, filling the surroundings.

Surrounded by the scent of flowers, everyone gradually felt dizzy and almost out of breath.

Fortunately, they have long been prepared.

Jason took out a medicine bottle with the Ancheng mark, unscrewed the cork, sprinkled the medicine inside on his hand, and covered his mouth and nose with his palm, and his dizziness improved immediately.

The medicine bottle is passed around in the hands of everyone, and the deadly fragrance of flowers is no longer a threat.

"It would be great if Lord Ye was here." Someone sighed.

Jason and Rose looked at each other, and they had to admit that they were right.

It's a pity that Ye An had other important matters and couldn't leave right away.However, referring to the tone of the city lord, calculating the time, the day when the two sides reunite is not far away.

After solving the problem of flower fragrance, everyone moved on.

The next section of the road was still full of troubles, but fortunately there were no surprises. Except for one unlucky guy whose arm was scratched by vines, the rest arrived at the destination safely and were ready to climb the tower as planned.

Jason and the others climbed to the top of the tower, immediately feeling refreshed by the wide view.After a long time, I remembered the purpose of coming here, and they all gathered at the high platform where the ore was placed, looking at the ore that was still shining after years, and couldn't help but marvel.

Xiao Yun went to another abandoned building alone to search for Haicheng's management office on the island.

This building is located deep in the island, surrounded by mutated plants.Regardless of whether it was collapsed or still intact, they were all wrapped in vines, and they could no longer see their original appearance.

Xiao Yun's journey along the way will naturally not be without obstacles.

Unlike Jason and others who still need potions to help, he only needs to activate his abilities to cover his body with a layer of ice, and no matter how dangerous the plants are, they can't do anything to him.

However, the low temperature made the gem worm uncomfortable.

The chubby little guy curled up, his fleshy paws clinging to a spar, while absorbing energy, he began to miss the life with Ye An.

Compared with the cold ice at this moment, it would rather endure Ye An's whimsical ideas, and it doesn't matter if the flowers are produced after experimenting.

When Xiao Yun and his party were lingering on the island, a fleet of ships was gradually approaching.

This fleet consisted of more than ten sea-going ships, with the flag of Jincheng flying on the mast, but the marks of Hunter City and Ancheng were engraved on the hull and deck.

Gerald, the owner of Jincheng, stood at the bow of the boat, raised his binoculars, looked at the pier in front of him and the Xiongcheng city behind the pier, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Send the order to go down and prepare to dock."

According to the supplementary contract, Gerald will deliver all the ships ordered by Xiao Yun and Ye An, and some sailors on board will also stay.

Originally, he didn't need to come in person, but when he heard the news of the reconstruction of Haicheng, he couldn't restrain his curiosity, resisted all opinions, and personally sent the fleet.

As it turned out, he was right.

It was worthwhile for him to see the reconstructed Haicheng with his own eyes!
