Neither ancient nor modern, what kind of world is this?

If the technology is so advanced, why are there no surveillance cameras in the room? And why use a one-way mirror to keep an eye on the maintenance worker? Is it because the 'indigenous people' have some kind of special fetish?

Cheng Shuang recalled the dragons in fairy tales who possessed mountains of gold and loved sparkly things. They would even sleep with the gold mountains encircled around them, without ever finding it uncomfortable.

Compared to Long, what's a big deal for Tasaburo and his companion is just watching them 24/7... Ugh, they're just weirdos.

The little girl calmed herself down, sped up, and went straight to the first row where the monitors were on. She stood on tiptoe and peered into the nutrient tanks.

A man was submerged in a sticky, dark blue liquid. His eyes were closed, and his fate was unknown. On the monitor, besides his heart rate and blood pressure, there were several lines that she couldn't understand.

The people inside are still alive.

Even with his breath coming in shallow gasps, the occasional twitch of his eyes beneath his eyelids was enough to tell him that he was lost in a dream.

Without hesitation, Cheng Shuang groped around the smooth-looking nutrient chamber, trying to find the switch. Unfortunately, the nutrient chamber had no gaps. She only found a silver sign below her head: Second-class guest, code name none, two contribution cards, bone age thirty-seven, inferior aptitude.

The young girl quickly circled around each nutrient chamber and was able to confirm that of the ten people lying in the first row, at least three were elderly and seven were newcomers.

She distinguished them by the number of cards; the three people had a maximum of five cards and a minimum of two cards.

These cards most likely refer to item cards or similar items granted by the Gate of Reincarnation.

If the card's owner is alive, certain intelligent ghosts can use the collected cards without even bearing the card's negative attributes. Similarly, once this group of maintainers and the old man leave the Land of Death, even if the card's owner is alive, the card will lose its power. This is a barrier set up by the Gate of Reincarnation to guard against ghosts.

Luo An inherited some fragments of memories from the soul of the bespectacled girl, N, confirming the little girl's initial speculation. However, neither the bespectacled girl nor Luo An knew the other more detailed information.

Aside from the difference in the number of cards, newcomers and veterans seemed to be no different in the eyes of the natives of Qingyou City, because their qualifications were all inferior. Finally, there was a line of small print that clearly stated the price: "This person should produce thirty catties of sugar and work outside the city for thirty years."

A life is so cheap and worthless.

Cheng Shuang couldn't find a way to rescue these people. The switch wasn't outside the nutrient tank; it must be on the monitor that was closely connected to it. The monitor had no buttons or power cords. If she rashly operated it and caused the nutrient tank to lock itself, it would endanger the lives of the uncles and aunts inside.

Furthermore, there is still some time before the Star and Moon Festival that the 'indigenous people' have repeatedly mentioned. Before that, the 'indigenous people' should not let them die easily, otherwise they would not still 'raise' them in nutrient tanks.

Once the little girl made up her mind, she didn't hesitate. She checked several nutrient tanks whose monitors were off, and after confirming that no one was there, she immediately ran back.

Before pressing the elevator button, she distinguished the differences between the two elevators. The other elevator had buttons from 1 to -3, which meant there were rooms underground.

I wonder which floor the City Lord's Mansion is on? Du Jun doesn't want to use the Sang Sang Monster to pass on messages, and she doesn't want to disturb him casually. What if the young man is being watched by the City Lord 24/7, and the Sang Sang Monster suddenly pops up? Wouldn't that cause trouble?

Cheng Shuang shook off her thoughts and recalled the floor where Feng Jiakang was. Great, she had no idea which floor she was on.

Because the city center doesn't have straight staircases, the main roads are all arched bridges suspended in mid-air.

If the Water Pavilion was the center point, the sedan chair went down at least a dozen arched bridges, and Feng Jiakang's position was estimated to be around the 80th floor.

She bit her lip and pressed down.

There was a reply from Luo An No. 3 in the house. Feng Jiakang clamored to go to the tavern for a drink. Even Zhou Lang didn't mention Cheng Shuang. The four of them were already surrounding Feng Jiakang and preparing to go out.

Cheng Shuang was prepared to accidentally wander into another maintainer's storage room. With twenty-five maintainers in a hundred-story central city, even with many shops and guides' huts interspersed throughout, the maintainers wouldn't be full. It was highly likely that she would end up in an empty house.

This time, the little girl was prepared. She lifted up the Luo An No. 4 and let its little hand press the button for the 81st floor, feeling the elevator shoot up like a rocket.

Having had the experience once before, my eyes will get used to it a bit. It seems that the guides rarely use the elevator during this time, which is normal. This is basically one of the most active times for the maintenance staff, so the guides will definitely be serving the maintenance staff!

Upon arrival at the elevator, a similarly styled silver wall came into view. Since the space wasn't very large, it was easy to tell whether someone was there or not.

Cheng Shuang crawled out of the elevator and walked towards the retractable wooden staircase. She tentatively stretched out her foot and tapped around it, repeatedly... The silver floor was solid.

The girl slapped her forehead. Oh no, this was most likely an empty room, and it was also very likely that the secret door to the storage room was not open.

Fortunately, she didn't get discouraged. Instead, taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, she touched the floor and walls and then had the bear carry her to touch the ceiling. There must be some kind of equipment to project images!

Initially, she equated the hidden door with the projector, until she touched a small protrusion on the smooth ceiling, about the size of a button battery, and easily pried it off.

Once in your hand, it instantly transforms into the shape of a card, called a Consumable Card.
