Xia Zhi sat on the steps in front of a small supermarket, looking blankly at the passers-by.

For some reason, he had an urge to escape from this city at this moment.

It is obviously a very familiar city, but now it seems so strange, so strange that it makes it difficult for him to face it.

After the excitement in my bones faded, all that was left was a full sense of guilt and endless emptiness.

The sky gradually darkened, and Xia Zhi only came to his senses when the supermarket owner came out to close the store.

"Let's go back and take a look. Everything should be back to the starting point."

Xia Zhi looked up at the dark clouds in the sky and felt terrible. He even felt a little regretful about his previous actions.

But it's too late now, things have been over for so long.

…

villa.

A group of people sat at the dining table and had dinner.

Jiang Fu treated Xia Zhi coldly, while Jiang Yuxuan seemed to have forgotten about Ke Yan and continued to pick up food from the table for Xia Zhi.

Everything seemed to have returned to the starting point, but the atmosphere was a little weird.

At least Jiang Yuxuan didn't get angry about Ke Yan's matter, which was a blessing in disguise.

He glanced at Jiang Fu, but was glared at by her fiercely, almost like the first time they met.

After dinner, Xia Zhi returned to his room to rest.

He plans to go to Qianmu City tomorrow to see if he can find the person who made the practice doll and solve Xiao Ming's problem first.

I have to say that Xiao Ming’s skill practice speed is really fast.

I've been idle since noon until now, and my skills have reached level 41, which is terrifying.

[Multi-Elemental Blast (Level 41): Utilizes the mutual repulsion between multiple elements to form unstable elemental spheres around the target. Each sphere deals damage equal to Intelligence x 4.1 to targets within a 5-meter radius. The maximum number of elemental spheres is 10. For every 1% of energy consumed, additional damage equal to Energy x 2 is applied, capped at 5%. 2-second cooldown.]

This evolution is pretty good. If calculated based on damage alone, it has at least doubled.

But this is also due to Xiao Ming's diligence.

Ever since Xia Zhi arranged for this guy to practice his skills, he has basically done nothing but eat.

Even because of this incident, the other pets were very dissatisfied, especially Caiyun, because she couldn't sleep well.

Although I really wanted to beat it up, I thought better of it.

Fortunately, Xia Zhi came up with a solution. He asked the snake woman to build several houses and made Xiao Ming's house several stories thicker.

Relying on the crystal rock wall with excellent defensive capabilities, the sound is indeed reduced to the lowest level without damaging the flowers and plants inside.

But he also reminded Xiao Ming to take good rest, after all, the most important thing is to combine work and rest.

After solving the problem of the pet, Xia Zhi lay down on the bed.

At night, Xia Zhi slept alone in his room, while Jiang Yuxuan went to sleep in Jiang Fu's room.

Although it is a bit empty, it can make people feel the long-lost tranquility.

…

The next morning.

When Xia Zhi got up, Jiang Fu and Jiang Yuxuan were not in the villa.

After a simple breakfast, he sent the message of going out to Jiang Yuxuan, and then left Dongyuan City directly through the teleportation array.

After passing through several cities as transit stations, Xia Zhi soon arrived at the city on the other side of Yan State.

Qianmu City, the city of creation.

This is a very large city, at least twice as large as Dongyuan City.

The architectural styles in the city vary, including ancient solid wood buildings, modern steel high-rise buildings, and various combinations. In short, all kinds of strange shapes can be found here.

The reason for this is that most of the people in this city have secondary occupations.

The secondary occupations here mainly refer to blacksmithing, prop making, alchemy and other occupations.

I don’t know who started the idea that a secondary profession should have its own style and demeanor.

So I don’t know when it started, but these secondary professionals have become weird in character.

The higher the level of the secondary professional, the greater the change, the more they like to make things difficult for others, and always do inexplicable things.

To put it simply, they just like to show off, as if they are the best in the world, and this is who they are, and what can you do to them?

The urban style here is also influenced by these people, which makes it so unique.

Not only that, although Qianmu City is bustling and lively, it is also recognized as one of the most hated cities in online voting.

Even though these combat professionals are begging for help here, few people will say good things about this city once they leave. Basically, all they have are negative images.

Although the top leaders of Yan State wanted to rectify the situation, these people were unyielding. After all, they had not broken the law, so there was nothing they could do about it.

Moreover, strictly speaking, the contributions made by these people are greater for secondary professions than for combat professions.

For example, a simple healing potion has benefited almost all of humanity, and some inventions have a very wide impact.

Even if there is some dissatisfaction, as long as it is not against the law, others can only watch helplessly.

"I wish these people would be more talkative."

Xia Zhi looked at the city in front of him and murmured softly.

Anyway, he is not a good person. If soft tactics don't work, he will use hard tactics.

After all, without the protection of the country, most secondary professions are just trash.

Generally, ninth-level secondary professionals may not be able to defeat eighth-level combat professionals, and some cannot even beat seventh-level professionals.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as his target this time, the puppet maker.
