Chapter three hundred and eighty second irritability
The city of hope, the towering walls stand on a plain, lurking like a prehistoric beast.
A door hole several dozen meters high on the city wall was wide open, with people coming and going, and the flow of people was like flowing water. This scene had almost never appeared before the end of the world or even in history.
Before the end of the world, cities had too many exits, and they could enter and exit from anywhere. There would be no thousands of people entering and exiting in the same place. However, the City of Hope was a closed city, with only a few places to enter and exit. The flow of people was too large, which led to such a unique landscape now.
They either rode mutant beasts in armor, lived in long robes and staff, or stalked with long swords on their backs. If they were placed before the end of the world, they were all against the will of heaven, but at this time these people could only walk in from the city gate obediently.
Since the arrival of the end of the world to the present, many people have the ability to fly, whether relying on skills or other things, but none of these people dare to fly directly from the sky above the city wall.
It’s not that I can’t, it’s not that I dare. If someone dares to do this, they will be ruthlessly killed in minutes. This is a contempt for the top leaders of the City of Hope. Who dares to do this? Don’t want to live anymore?
Although no one explicitly stipulates that it is impossible to fly in through the city gate, people just silently abide by this rule.
The city gate changed, and two teams of soldiers with distinctly armored soldiers lined up in two rows to fight on both sides of the city gate. The cold iron armor and cold faces made people afraid to take rashness, and the spear in their hands made people afraid to act rashly.
These soldiers are not very powerful, and their average level is only about level 10 or 20. Among the people entering and leaving the city gate, at least half of them are better than them. But no one dares to show them a look because they represent the behemoth of the City of Hope.
There was once a leader of a marginal force who came here for the first time. He relied on his confidence to be very dissatisfied with the investigation into the city of Hope and was furious, but he was killed in minutes and had no chance to cry.
It was almost evening, and when it was dark, the gate of the City of Hope would be closed to prevent monsters from rushing into the city at night. The city of Hope was as high as the gate hole. It was two solid iron blocks up to ten centimeters thick, with a weight of more than 100,000 kilograms. When it was closed, it would require dozens of people in the thirty level to push hard to close.
Don’t ask how these two huge iron doors came about, in the end of the world. For safety, people have some solutions.
"New? Pay the city fee, twenty gods and demon coins, don't ask why, this is the rule, and you can only stay in the city for one night. If you are patrolled the next day, you will either pay taxes or be driven out, and you will pay taxes to get the certificates. You can only enter the city."
A soldier in iron armor at the door stopped a man who had come from somewhere, and said with a cold look at the rows of tables and chairs lined up not far away.
Although the level of the man is already as high as level 18, be careful that he can travel in the wild and does not have to look at anyone's expression at all, but at this time, he can only obey obediently when facing the guard with a rough attitude.
It’s not that he didn’t have anger in his heart, but that he didn’t dare to see the soldiers who transformed into those murderous intent.
Not far from the city gate, there is a slap of tables and chairs. This is a place that specifically accepts people who do not have the right to live in the City of Hope. They have to pay taxes to enter and exit every day before they can enter and exit.
At this time, there were long queues in front of these tables and chairs, waiting to pay taxes to enter the city. Many people were worried. If it was completely dark, those who were not qualified to enter the city would have to sleep outside the city with great dangers.
"A few days ago, Commander Guangming led so many people out, and I don't know what to do. When I came back, I took a look from afar. My face was not very good. It seemed that things were not going well."
"I heard that the Grand Commander Guangming seemed to have taken some major action. He took more than 5,000 people out, but only more than 1,000 people when he came back. I don't know what happened."
"Shh, whisper, people like the commander are not something we are talking about, be careful that disaster comes from the mouth."
The tax collectors behind the table were chatting. When talking about a certain character, they all shut their mouths at the same time. It is true that people have freedom of speech, but when and what kind of character should be divided into the end of this day. If a big person is unhappy, the end of the matter will be lost. Who dares to say it randomly?
"Well? The people over there seemed to be a group of people, and everyone looked very powerful," the person behind the table said to see a group of people in the crowd.
People like this who sit here are seen many times every day, and they are not surprised or take it as nothing.
The crowd he saw happened to be Tang Tian and the others. Tang Tian was in front, surrounded by more than two hundred people behind him. They naturally exuded the aura of a strong man, which looked different from ordinary people.
"Maybe it was someone from a certain force in the city, maybe the base of the outside force was destroyed by a monster and ran here," the people around him said disregardlessly.
They have seen this situation a lot and don’t care at all.
"Huh? Look, that's Changsheng. I know this person. He is strong and famous in the city. He almost entered the army and became a general. How could he follow that young man?"
"Not to say, it's really him. Look at his appearance, he is so respectful to that young man. Who is that young man? He actually made Chang Sheng talk to him so humbly"?
During the discussions by others, Tang Tian brought Chang Sheng and more than 200 people to the city gate. Tang Tian, who had been here once, was familiar with it, took out the residence certificate of the City of Hope and went in.
He didn't have to worry about other people. They were all people of more than twenty levels, so they naturally had the ability to get a residence certificate in the city, and it was for a long time.
After entering the city, Tang Tian turned around and said to them, "You go and rest first, I'll handle something. See you here at this time tomorrow. I'll discuss how to do it."
After saying that, Tang Tian said to Changsheng again: "You are lucky tonight, collect some information, choose the most suitable place, and make plans tomorrow."
What Tang Tian said was naturally to choose that place to start, recover it and become his base here. If the novice village wants to get out of the dark forest, it naturally needs to make sufficient preparations.
After going out for so many days and spending the tension every day, these people naturally need to relax. If there are family members who report their safety to their families, those who have not joined will naturally look for their own entertainment programs.
After saying goodbye to Changsheng and others, Tang Tian went to his place of residence alone.
"Strange, why did your eyelids twitch and feel restless. I haven't felt this way for a long time. Is something going on? Legend... Well, the novel describes that many people will have a premonition of unknown dangers after they are strong enough. Am I the same? Maybe I thought about it too. There are monsters everywhere outside for so many days, and it seems that I am a little nervous." Tang Tian frowned and shook his head and threw these thoughts away.
"I don't know how old man Xu and his grandson are doing. According to their personality, one of them will not go out easily, and he left them money, so it should be fine." Thinking of his pitiful appearance when he met Old Man Xu and the others, Tang Tian accelerated his pace of going back.
When he came to his house, Tang Tian smiled faintly. No matter how long he went out, he always had to have a nest. But this is not his home, and it did not give Tang Tian the warm feeling. However, Tang Tian missed the people in Shijia Village a little.
"Old Xu, are you here?" Tang Tian opened the door and asked loudly.
Perhaps the sound of Tang Tian coming back alarmed Old Man Xu in the house. At this time, Old Man Xu's old figure appeared at the door, with a happy smile on his face and said, "Sir, I'm back, I haven't encountered any danger, come into the house and have a rest."
"Everything is OK, there are dangers everywhere, but I'm not doing well. I brought back enough materials this time, which should be enough for you to work hard. By the way, how is your granddaughter?" Tang Tian said casually.
However, when approaching Old Man Xu, Tang Tian's eyebrows thumped, and he thought to himself, why did he feel that Old Man Xu made me feel displeased? However, Tang Tian didn't care, so he just thought it was because of his nervousness.
When she mentioned her granddaughter, Old Man Xu smiled and said, "I want to thank you sir. If it weren't for you, our grandfather and grandson wouldn't know where we died. She has been much better these days and has met a friend. Maybe she went out of the city to play with that friend's father. It's almost dark. I'm going to pick her up. Sir, please take a rest first."
Tang Tian frowned and said, "It's almost dark. It's so dangerous outside. Let's go and pick her up together. We can't run out any longer. You know how dangerous it is outside."
"Thank you for your concern, but it doesn't matter. His friend's father is a captain of the City of Hope. He led a team of more than 100 people to patrol back and forth at the city gate. This section of the road is very safe and it's okay." As he said that, Old Man Xu began to walk out.
I don’t know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but Old Man Xu did not refuse Tang Tian’s companions.
"Haha, let's go. After picking her up, I will still bother Mr. Xu. See if those materials work or not." Tang Tian was thinking about Old Man Xu's magical ability and did not notice this detail at all.
It’s nothing that Tang Tian noticed. With his strength, any conspiracy is a paper tiger.
Chatting all the way, Old Man Xu smiled happily. After all, it was a great gift to be able to live a stable life in this dangerous end of the world. It would be strange if you were not happy.
For some reason, when he met Old Man Xu, Tang Tian began to become irritable.
"Maybe I was too anxious to see Old Man Xu use these useless ingredients to make magical talisman paper, so he was so upset," Tang Tian shook his head and thought.
