Chapter 110 Birds from the North
Xuantian City looks much more magnificent overall than last time. Not only has the city-state been upgraded and the city area has become larger, but there are also extremely deterrent weapons on the city walls.
But they are much better than the weapons that were scattered in groups of three or two in Wu Yu City before, and the level is different.
There were eight people following Li Aoting this time, plus herself, making it nine people in total. It was considered a small team in the city, and most of the teams in the city knew each other.
Even if they didn't know them, they looked familiar, so Li Aoting and the others attracted the attention of other teams as soon as they arrived.
They are not the first group to move here this fall.
A few people looked at the newly appeared hot spring clubs and training rooms in the city, and felt that the city lord was very wealthy. In just a short period of time, he not only upgraded the city-state to the third level, but also opened several more stores.
The training room attracted their attention the most, and several of them immediately applied for cards. Fortunately, the training room's frenzy period had ended, and there were basically empty rooms.
At this moment, they were like country bumpkins, looking at everything here with shining eyes.
"This is amazing! You can even pick wild monsters to fight."
"Hey! Look at this, it's a black scorpion. We've suffered a lot from these wild monsters before."
"Just choose this one and abuse it. You won't really get hurt anyway."
They excitedly chose a few black scorpions to fight. They didn't succeed in killing this wild monster at first. It was not until later that Li Aoting designated two city-states to cooperate randomly that they killed it several times.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. It wasn't long before conflicts arose among the city residents. Several city-states were busy with their own affairs and had no time to frequently hunt black scorpions. They were all afraid that chaos would occur in the city-state if they were not in the city.
The small team trained here for a full three hours before leaving exhausted. Although it was a virtual battle, the physical energy consumed was real.
Several people turned and went to the restaurant. Although they were sweating a lot, the most important thing now was to fill their stomachs.
The restaurant's menu has a wide variety of delicious dishes. Here they filled their stomachs and replenished their energy.
After Li Aoting and others had a meal, the total attribute value of almost everyone increased by a few points, indicating that the food was made with good ingredients.
"Captain, it's so uncomfortable to have sweat all over your body. Why don't we go to the hot spring club first?" a team member suggested.
Li Aoting also came back to her senses. The sweat had evaporated a little, but she still felt very uncomfortable. "Okay, let's go there."
Then it was another amazing journey.

Lu Jiu looked at today's list and found that nine people from outside the city came to stay at the hotel. The most familiar name was Li Aoting, the city lord he had met in Jinghe District.
She patted Shen Jufeng's shoulder and said, "Look, Li Aoting is here too. Did she also disband the city-state?"
Yao Bing'an is a pioneer in this regard. He simply disbanded the city-state and came here.
Shen Jufeng didn't care about these things. "I don't know, but just live here. Just don't cause any trouble."
He was sure that such situations would become more and more common in the future. As long as the residents did not cause trouble in the city, they would not have the time to care about the specific circumstances of each person.
Lu Jiu scratched his head. "This autumn, due to the dissolution of other city-states, our Xuantian City has gained nearly a thousand residents. I was thinking of creating better transportation to visit other city-states and bring people over, but it seems that we won't need that anymore."
Xuantian City is currently the most powerful city-state in Jinjiang District. Of course, there are other well-developed city-states in this district, but they are too far away from Xuantian City.
Shen Jufeng: "There's no need to deliberately promote it in the future. The people who live here are the best spokespersons. Their relaxed daily lives are the best publicity."
It is not easy to live a relaxed life after the world has become gamified. It is not only physically tiring, but also psychologically stressful.
Lu Jiu slumped on the sofa like Ge You, "I feel like I have nothing to do. I just farm all day. I'm a bit bored..."
Shen Jufeng ignored her. This kind of life was already very good. This guy was so relaxed because all the affairs in the city were thrown to him.
Lu Jiu was still nagging, "Hey, I don't know why, I always feel like I see something in the crown of the giant tree, but I can't quite tell. You said it's autumn now, and the leaves of other trees are almost bald. Their leaves are also yellowing, but they still only fall a few leaves."
Shen Jufeng also noticed this, "Perhaps they have stronger vitality and may not lose all their leaves until the last few days of autumn."
What is this guy focusing on? He even has the leisure to observe those giant trees.
But Lu Jiu shook his head, "No, I feel like there's something wrong. Tomorrow I'll equip the wings and go to the top to see."
On the way to Jinghe District, she was attracted by the crowns of the giant trees. Even now when she comes back, she still can't help but look there, and today she vaguely feels that she saw a round solitary object.
"Then avoid other people's sight. Otherwise, if you fly so high all of a sudden, it will arouse suspicion. Someone has already bought a few batches of mutant mantises, and the forging shop manager also has orders for wings. It's just that you've been busy with things lately, so the order for wings is temporarily idle. Once those people have wings, they will naturally guess that without the gems, you can't fly very high at first."
Shen Jufeng's words dispelled Lu Jiu's idea of observing the giant tree in front of others.
"Okay then, I'll go and take a look secretly depending on the situation."
In the distance, unknown to them, a group of bird monsters were heading towards this side from the north. They were densely packed, with their mouths full of sharp teeth opened and their throats screaming loudly.
Lu Jiu shuddered, then hugged the small heater tightly in his arms. The weather was getting colder and colder, and there were only about twenty days left in autumn. They had to cherish this little time and hurry up to accumulate supplies for the winter.

As soon as the sun rose, Lu Jiu opened the door and stretched herself with full energy. She had discussed the winter preparations with Shen Jufeng quite late last night, but even so, she didn't feel uncomfortable when she woke up from a sound sleep.
After a while, Shen Jufeng's door opened. Today, the former domineering president was wearing a gray windbreaker, looking very showy.
Zhuang Yun was the last one to go out. His daughter was still sleeping at home, and the breakfast was still warm in the kitchen. The child could get up and serve herself.
It's another day to go out and hunt in the wild.
Even though it was only dawn, the stall was already open. The three of them bought rice balls with various fillings. Lu Jiu liked to add fried dough stick crumbs the most, which tasted crispy and fragrant.
There was still some fog in the early morning, and it was difficult to see things a little further away.
Lu Jiu swallowed the rice ball in his mouth slowly, "It's foggy today? I haven't seen weather other than sunny in a long time."
Zhuang Yun ate quickly, finishing his last bite before responding to Lu Jiu's question, "Didn't they say during the game update that the cycle of seasons and natural disasters would be implemented? Doesn't that mean we might see weather like we do on Earth?"
Fortunately, the Earth was a modern society at that time with advanced communications, so the army could provide immediate support whenever a disaster occurred.
But now... it's so scary just thinking about it. Fortunately, Xuantian City is located at a higher altitude, so if there is a heavy rain or something, they think it won't flood here so quickly.
