Chapter 605 Returning to Old Lingdon(1/2)
Chapter 605 Return to Old Town
Su Lun, Mr. Mirror and Pestoya just chatted without saying a word.
The atmosphere in the hot spring pool is also relaxed and pleasant. They are like a family, chatting about business and trivial matters in life, and occasionally joking, laughing and having fun.
In fact, after getting along for a long time, Su Lun also knew that her senior sister looked cold and distant, but she was actually very easy to get along with. She was kind, courageous, intelligent, considerate, and almost all the words that could be thought of to describe people with good qualities could be used.
On her.
It's just that Mr. Jing likes to be quiet, and the blood of the vampire family has a cold temperament. In addition, she is indeed the biological daughter of Sir Isaac a thousand years ago. She is too senior and no one can talk to her.
Topics other than business matters.
Except for the junior brother Su Lun.
This seemed particularly close.
Although Mr. Jing himself didn't like to talk, when Su Lun spoke, she listened with great interest, and occasionally a gentle smile like the spring breeze would appear in his beautiful eyes.
Just like this, without realizing it, the wound on his lower ribs was treated, and Mr. Jing lay down by the pool again, revealing a large area of his beautiful back as smooth as jade.
The scars left by the holy light looked like burns, spreading from the lower ribs to the lower back, and the red patch was particularly conspicuous on the snow-white skin.
Fortunately it was resolved in time, otherwise the erosion would have continued to spread.
That kind of pain is simply not something ordinary people can bear.
Su Lun concentrated on treating the wound on Mr. Jing's lower back, pulling the cold air out from between the bones and flesh little by little. He then used dark alchemy techniques to neutralize and digest the sacred law.
This is a boring and long process.
Not long after.
Su Lun let out a long breath, and the healing green light in his hand dimmed.
He now has almost absolutely rigorous thinking ability, and the process of resolving the injury went as smoothly as expected.
But it's not finished yet.
With Su Lun's current eighth-level strength, it took a lot of effort to deal with injuries that were corroded by the sacred law that exceeded the ninth level. He could only remove about one-tenth of the damage at a time.
It is estimated that it will take more than a week to completely deal with it.
"alright!"
At this time, Su Lun breathed out a sigh of relief, said something while patting her hands habitually.
The sound of "pop" was particularly clear in this wilderness.
However, as soon as this palm fell, he was stunned when he reacted instantly: His palm happened to hit that round and straight part?
Because I usually treat Qianjiu's injuries, I habitually do small tricks to take advantage of him. This is purely an unintentional act.
However, this time it was my senior sister.
Although he was separated by a soaked gauze, this action was somewhat frivolous.
Mr. Jing received this slap on the butt, and was obviously slightly surprised.
But fortunately, her back was turned, and the strange color disappeared in a flash. She stood up as usual and said calmly: "Let's go."
Originally this little misunderstanding was harmless, but there happened to be a third person here.
Pestoya blinked with big eyes, extremely curious.
How could she pass up this opportunity to tease Su Lun? She put her hands on her hips and let out a weird smile like a witch, shouting: "Sister, I saw Su Lun deliberately touched your butt just now."
With that said, the ghost lady imitated the exaggerated tone of those theater performances and said: "Oh~ I just saw a lady's buttocks being violated by a man's hands. Will the beautiful lady beat up that rash man?
"
As soon as these words came out, things that neither Su Lun nor Su Lun cared about at first suddenly became subtle.
Mr. Jing was also a little helpless towards his quirky sister.
Neither does responding, nor does not responding.
It was an unintentional act, so there's nothing you should mind about it.
Su Lun felt that he was in the wrong, but Mr. Jing didn't say anything, and he didn't take it seriously. Instead, he glanced at Pestoya angrily, pinched her face, and kept talking.
Pestoya was indeed fooled by this pinch, and she climbed on his neck with a grin on her face, "Oh, damn Su Lun, you pinch my face again, I will strangle you to death!"
Old Rington was once the secret mine of Grand Duke Raphael. Later, after the ambitious Grand Duke was restored to the throne and died suddenly, the place was taken over by the Reims family. Later, Catherine became the emperor of the empire, and this place became the
became part of the empire.
Once upon a time, the residents of Old Town were populated by slaves brought by the Raphael family. Now that the United Empire has abolished slavery and lordship, it has become a special administrative region of the United Empire.
Jiulingdun was originally a mining pit, with many mineral deposits and ancient ruins buried there. Because it was a plane passage that existed countless years ago, there are also a large number of specialties and ancient ruins from the abyss plane.
The most attractive thing is the legendary city "Dawn Ruins" left by the former alchemy demigod Sir Isaac.
Therefore, after Jiulindun was opened to the outside world, it also attracted countless adventurers to take risks.
However, due to the plane war, the United Empire has controlled almost all seafaring ships. There was a cruise ship from Luying to Jiulingdun in a few days but suddenly stopped, and only a small number of warships were able to travel. Jiulingdun almost changed again
It has become an isolated city like it used to be.
Fortunately, Su Lun's current space ability can go anywhere, and he didn't plan to waste time looking for any sea ships. He teleported all the way and arrived at the Black Barrier Reef not long after.
In the past, in order to keep it secret, Archduke Raphael only had an inconspicuous fortress on this island camouflaged on the sea on the black tower. But now it has changed a lot.
On the sea, Su Lun and Mr. Jing looked at the war fortress in the distance that looked like a hedgehog with many artillery pieces, and their expressions were slightly strange.
Once they broke out of the Black Tower and fought a battle with the pirates from the Third Fleet of the North Sea Fleet here. At that time, Su Lun was just a small second-level professional, and fighting a group of pirates was full of dangers. But he didn't expect it.
When he came back, he was already at level eight.
When I revisit my old place, some memories emerge unconsciously.
At that time, Su Lun still remembered that he mustered up the courage to go back to "rescue" Mr. Jing. Later, the two encountered a storm at sea and drifted for many days before they met Jike and his father who were going to Blizzard City to sell furs.
Apparently Mr. Jing also remembered it. There seemed to be light and shadow passing through her eyes, and she sighed slightly: "I haven't been back for several years, and this place has changed a lot."
Su Lun raised his eyebrows and said, "Yes. I don't know what's going on with Jiulingdun now."
He didn't intend to alarm anyone. He pinched the Warlock Seal and a space crack appeared in front of him.
The two of them stepped inside.
Looking again, there is already a bustling scene with tall buildings all around.
This is the inner city of Old Rington.
The tall black tower stands in the center of the city, and the alchemical light source illuminates the underground city. The high wall separates the inner city from the outer city. The cake layout of No. 1 to 8 city areas and the futuristic blue glass super
There are tall buildings and chimneys hundreds of meters high that emit billowing white smoke.
Everything is very familiar.
Although the North Sea Fleet's robbery robbed Old Lingtown of a lot of wealth, it did not damage its foundation. This underground city has long since restored its former prosperity.
Pedestrians were passing by on the street, and the hustle and bustle of hawking was very lively.
Due to its isolated development, the inner city of Old Rington has an alternative prosperity that is not inferior to any other city.
Most of the old acquaintances rushed out together, and there was nothing to miss.
Su Lun and Mr. Jing did not stay in the inner city for long. They teleported again and appeared outside the inner city wall.
Unlike before, the outer city has changed a lot.
The dilapidated scene of the past no longer exists, and a large number of high-rise buildings have been built.
After the abolition of slavery and lordship, everyone in Old Rington became citizens of the empire. Without the exploitation of high taxes, they were no longer the endless exploitation of slaves they once were. The finances people gained from adventure were enough for them to live a prosperous life.
.
Old Rington is the birthplace of neuromechanical technology, and various mechanical transformation industries here are also very developed.
Adventurers with modified mechanical prosthetics can be seen everywhere on the streets. Judging by their accents, many of them are even outsiders from Marfa.
Also because of the transfer of top-notch technology from Marfa, the mechanical prosthetic limbs in Old Lington now have a new look, and the research and development of various mechanical technologies have made a qualitative leap. Various mechanical modification shops can also be seen everywhere on the street.
Su Lun is going to Ginkgo to pick up No. 88. That small building is in Nancheng.
Seeing how much changes had taken place in Old Lingdun, they were no longer in a hurry, and just happened to revisit their old place and watch it while walking.
The two of them walked on the street. Everywhere they could see various modified motorcycles whizzing on the street, and various shops on both sides of the street were also bustling with activity.
The scene in the outer city is completely different from the war-torn slums back then, and it now looks like a normal city.
However, as they walked, they also heard some other news.
"I originally thought that we poor people could live a good life, but I didn't expect that the newly appointed governor would return to the previous feudal system within a few months of his arrival."
"Yes. The tax is so high, and the treasures obtained from hunting have to be sold to the city lord's palace first. As a result, there will probably be fewer and fewer outside adventurers and merchants."
"What other outsiders will come? Haven't you seen that cruise ships are now under control? And the alchemy academy that the empire said before that civilian children can also go to has been abolished now? Looking at the situation, the governor still wanted to
In order to monopolize alchemical knowledge as before, they will lock us up and enslave us for generations."
"Didn't it mean that the empire has no nobles and has abolished slavery? Aren't we all pardoned from slavery? The law says that we are free and can go anywhere."
To be continued...
