Li Hou and Ji Que went all the way to the Pearl River base. Before entering the base, they met a team of supernatural beings from the Pearl River base. Ji Que was very curious when he saw the huge zombie fish tied behind the car and dragging in the snow.
"It's a wind-type zombie fish, and its scales and bones can be used as materials for wind-type supernatural weapons." Li Hou glanced at it, "I heard that the Pearl River Base is currently researching a technology to extract energy from the corpses of zombie creatures. It seems It's true."
It was the first time Ji Que heard of such a thing, and his eyes widened in surprise.
It is said that the Pearl River Base is the richest of the four bases. Ji Que had no idea about this before, but when he saw the true face of the Pearl River Base, he was so shocked that he had lived in the Chuanyuan Base for many years. not coming out.
The Pearl River base has another name called the city in the sky, and it has already lived up to its name.
Large-scale gravitational weapons dragged the entire city into the air, and a huge dome-shaped protective cover was showing a large-screen update of the latest notice of the Pearl River Base. At this time, it was showing a low-level version of a potion Price drop notifications and updated versions of medicinal properties and prices. On the ground, the army of supernatural beings is training exercises, while the city suspended in the air imitates the shape of Western architecture, magnificent and mysterious, and the colorful garden landscape can be vaguely seen, which is too beautiful to behold.
It turns out... this is the legendary city in the sky.
When entering the base to swipe his ID card, Ji Que felt guilty, but he still remembered Li Hou's warning, so he swiped his ID card naturally and casually, and walked into the scanner for entering and leaving the base.
Xiaobailian has lived in the Kawahara base for so many years. He was a minor in the early stage and an ordinary person in name in the later stage. Therefore, although he watched other people go through this procedure at the gate of the city, he did not experience it himself. He felt the soft light hitting his body. I was still a little confused, until I heard a voice in my ear: "The verification is complete, welcome back." Only then did I understand that I had passed this level.
He has never seen the world at all, and he is very curious about the identity badge he wears like a watch on his hand, and he has to admire Li Hou, who throws him a thing at random, and even enters and exits the base very strictly. He was deceived by all the equipment, appearance, and when he clicked on the virtual interface on the watch and saw his personal information, he was so surprised that he could stuff an egg into his mouth.
Name: Ji Xiaobai
Number: JS3883
Ability: Psychic, sixth-level high-level
It also stated his personal resume. From the end of the world to the present, his life was written in great detail. Even the health report of being raised at the Pearl River Base for free until he was thirteen years old was clearly pasted on it.
"this… "
He swallowed his saliva. If he didn't know his origin, he would have thought that he was really a member of the Pearl River Base.
Li Hou pressed his head, and said with disgust: "You are stupid and ugly when you are stupid." After a pause, he said with a lot of aftertaste: "You still look good when you cry."
The little boy shivered, and quickly escaped from his clutches.
After entering the city, the scene that catches the eye is very lively. The ring-shaped single-storey building is lined with various shops, pharmacies, restaurants and emergency medical rooms. The products on display are dazzling, and there are all kinds of strange things that Ji Que has never seen before. According to Li Hou, they are all The things taken from marine life, some of these street stalls are real and some are fake, whether you can find real treasures depends on your luck.
And what makes Ji Que truly feel the heroic local tyrants of the Pearl River base is the warm temperature and the fresh air with the scent of grass and trees after entering the city. This is only possible with the most advanced temperature controllers. In the Kawahara base, it can only be configured in the high-end buildings in the inner city, not to mention that the outer city of the Kawahara base and the middle city are not heated all year round during the snowy and rainy seasons. The number of crystal nuclei to be consumed is simply astronomical.
However, Ji Que has already inquired from Li Hou that every corner of the huge Pearl River base is within the control range of the temperature controller, and it does not stop all year round.
Ji Que gasped when he heard this.
The 15-minute shuttle arrived. Li Hou grabbed the boy who was fascinated by the grand occasion, swiped his ID card and got on the bus. Ji Que hurriedly followed suit.
The shuttle bus transports the tired travelers back to the sky city like a dragon. The buildings and crowds under the city become smaller and smaller in the field of vision. The shuttle bus is divided into three stops—the city of the Pearl River base is also divided into three urban areas, which are different from the Chuanyuan base in that they are divided according to the height instead of the inside and outside—Li Hou got out of the bus in the lower city.
He calmly took Ji Que into a not-low-grade rental house, and the little boy found that the buildings here were all of uniform specifications, and there was almost no distinction between high and low on the surface.
After swiping his ID card, the room lit up. Ji Que leaned beside Li Hou to watch him tap a few times on the touch control interface embedded in the wall in the entrance. After a while, there was a slight sound in the room, and the floor-to-ceiling windows automatically opened to welcome in the fresh air. In the air, the dust meekly drilled in one direction as if it had grown wings. In just three minutes, the deserted room has become clean and tidy, with fresh air and a suitable temperature.
"This is... a wind-type supernatural weapon?"
"To be more precise, it's an instrument, a cleaning instrument made with wind power." Li Hou felt that his ignorance was ridiculous and funny.
"Pearl River Base is really rich." Ji Que sighed, and suddenly put on a tearful expression, and said to Li Hou: "Lord, let's be friends~"
Li Hou: "... so disgusting."
He didn't appreciate the cuteness of the other party at all, Ji Que rolled his eyes, and looked around with fresh energy, very excited. This standard room has one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom. The furniture is simple, but it is also the best house that Ji Que has seen since the end of the world.
Li Hou was not interested in caring about him. After washing himself, he went back to his room to sleep. When he came out, he saw the little white face lying face down on the sofa, looking like he was growing with the sofa, and kicked him. With a raised butt, "Get up, go eat."
Ji Que was so tired that he fell asleep, when he heard the word eat, he immediately turned up stiffly, and lay on the sofa in a daze for a while before being carried out by Li Hou, who had lost all patience.
The low-ring city also has its own complete life system, including shops, hospitals, restaurants, etc. Li Hou is very familiar with this place, so he found a snack bar without a signboard or store name on it. The little white face almost swallowed his tongue, what is high quality and low price is called this! Compared with this one, the high-end hotels in the Chuanyuan base are all scumbags!
Seeing that Li Hou had no intention of entertaining him at all, Xiaobailian successfully used the skill of crying and laughing to make the other party annoyed as a tour guide and took him to see around the Pearl River base.
"This is... a real city."
Ji Que felt that there was no sense of reality. This place was like the legendary Garden of Eden. He almost forgot that this was in the last days, as if he was in a luxurious city in his memory. The people passing by do not have the exhaustion and numbness of the people at the Kawahara Base who are struggling to win. They have fascinating smiles on their faces. They look very leisurely, and the pace of life seems to be very slow. They come together to go shopping, enjoy food or go on a date people can be seen everywhere.
This is another world that his father once described that no longer exists.
He didn't expect that such a place really existed in this world.
Seeing his unbelievable appearance, Li Hou squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the prosperity in front of him, and said disapprovingly: "Eighteen years have passed, do you think this is a very short period of time?"
What's more, supernatural weapons are not inferior to the modern technology of the past. After so many years, if people can't return to this standard of living, it will be a failure in itself.
"But the Kawahara base..."
Ji Que couldn't find a suitable word, so Li Hou said for him: "It seems that nothing has changed, right?"
Ji Que lowered his head in disappointment.
Li Hou shrugged, "If you fall behind, you will be beaten. This sentence is applicable at any time. The Chuanyuan base pays attention to the strength of the supernatural beings. Most of their crystal cores and materials are invested in researching lethal supernatural weapons and improving supernatural abilities. In terms of level and strength, managers do not pay attention to the quality of life, and they are also reminding people to be prepared for danger in times of peace. If you go to the Alliance of Free Ability Users, you will find that, except for the place where VIPs are entertained, the entire base will only open the temperature control during the break time The system, where there are no ordinary people, has cultivated batch after batch of advanced supernatural beings, which has something to do with their tight living environment."
"But, isn't it good for the Pearl River base?"
Ji Que was puzzled, this place was like a fairyland on earth, another living environment that he never dared to imagine before. But he also knows that the wealth of the Pearl River base is directly proportional to the strength of its supernatural beings, and people have not lost the strength they should really rely on to survive in the last days because of this kind of life.
Li Hou pointed to his feet, "Pearl River Base has supernatural powers that must participate in militarized training management regulations at the age of ten. These people's training is very strict until they die."
Ji Que sighed unceasingly, he could only say that being rich is so capricious.
Seeing his yearning and jealous look, Li Hou smiled and said: "When you get to the Yellow River base, you will know that what you are doing now is nothing at all."
There was only an exclamation mark in Ji Que's eyes. In this comparison, he was an ugly duckling from the countryside, and he was looking forward to the day when he could see what the Yellow River base that Li Hou said he missed and praised looked like.
Xiaobailian originally planned to continue to wander around the next day, but he didn't expect to be arrested and sent to the school the next day—it was still an elementary education school! !
Looking at the children sitting upright in front of him, the youngest was not as high as his knees, and the oldest was only thirteen or fourteen years old, Ji Que was completely dumbfounded. When he learned that the requirement for graduation from the primary education school is to break through and become an eighth-level superhuman, his face turned black: The bastard surnamed Li, who changed his way to this ghostly place in the first place, couldn't it be to punish him? !
