Chapter 18 New Map



◎He said that even a penny can stop a hero◎

Yushan City, which is completely built in the mountains, is far away from the Black Tower. It will take some time for An Mo to get there, which gives Gu Qian'an the opportunity to explore in advance.

However, he killed two S-level warriors in the Black Tower and was no longer the unknown psychic. Entering Yushan City with the same face would definitely arouse Bai Lezhan's vigilance.

Place

So he needs to make some changes.

Unfortunately, Yuanqiu does not provide face-changing services and can only help Gu Qi'an make minor adjustments to his original appearance.

The angles on his face were softened, and the chubby cheeks made him look childish. His sharp red eyes looked cute on this face. Although the hair and eye colors could not be changed, after cutting his long hair short and completely changing his hairstyle, he looked completely different from An Qi.

Only after making sure that everything was ready did Gu Qian'an walk out of the space passage.

This time he landed in a small alley in Yushan City. As soon as his feet touched the ground, the resonant stone on his right wrist began to vibrate.

Gu Qian'an looked around quickly. Although there was nothing in the alley except the three walls on his side, everything he saw was covered with a layer of blue gauze.

"The ball is over," Gu Qinan pointed at his eyes in panic and looked up, "Have the blue eyes you made for me faded? Everything I see is blue."

"These eyes are built into my body when I left the factory, how could there be any problem with them!" The ball's perspective was the same as Gu Qian's, and it immediately flew into the air to investigate.

The town, which was originally the same color as white jade, was now filled with the familiar crystal blue color. Even the food sold in the shops had energy accumulated on it.

"The air is full of residual energy." This was the first time that the sphere had seen such a situation.

Gu Qian blinked, trying to adapt to the blue filter, "Is this a city built on blue crystal?"

Although his eyes were a little injured, the ubiquitous energy made his body feel very comfortable.

The battle with Mo Jin consumed too much of his stored energy. Not only did his level drop to C, but this body was also always hungry.

He was still thinking about how to recover, but Yushan City had already provided a perfect solution.

The energy in the air continuously came into contact with him and was absorbed by him. Although the energy was very weak, over time, the energy he lost would be replenished.

"But we still need to find the cause as soon as possible," said Gu Qian.

An Mo will come soon. The blue crystal in his body will become abnormally active due to the stimulation of the same kind of energy. If he stays in this environment for a long time, the energy value will definitely exceed the safe range that An Mo can bear.

The entrance of the alley where Gu Qian was located was very close to the city gate, so he could clearly see those sick people with special abilities being stopped outside the gate and begging desperately, and those who were fortunately allowed in were also driven to a unified gathering point by the guards.

However, the residents of the city did not react to all this, or rather, the residents of Yushan City did not react to anything.

They walked in a hurry, their eyes fixed on the ground, not paying any attention to what was happening in the outside world. There were quite a few residents in Yushan City, but the magical thing was that they walked without making any sound, and everyone kept a very long distance between each other.

'Why do these people look so familiar?' Yuanqiu turned around and looked at Gu Qi'an who was always ready to blend into the crowd, 'Don't you look like this when you go out?'

Although the emergence of delivery services has solved most of Gu Qi'an's daily needs, when the delivery man is unwilling to deliver the items upstairs, he who is not good at arguing with others can only step out of his comfort zone.

Yuanqiu still remembers how Gu Qian'an looked at that time. Not only did he walk close to one side, but his eyes were always looking at the ground in front of him. In order to maintain a social distance from the people in front of him, he would rather walk at a turtle speed. He even took out his mobile phone and pretended to look at it a few times to find an excuse for his walking speed. It can be said that the way he walked was very similar to that of the city residents.

"There's still a difference," Gu Qinan shook his head. "I walk this way because it makes me feel comfortable, but these people seem to be forced to accept it."

He found the right opportunity and slipped into the crowd. With his deliberate disguise, no one noticed that he was not a resident of the town.

"Where are we going next?" The ball flew into the air, recording the overall layout of Yushan City.

Gu Qi'an thought for a moment and said, "See if there is any bulletin board or something like that. We need to understand the rules of Yushan City first."

The royal family divided the land among high-level psychics for them to govern independently, so the laws of each town are completely different. If you want to investigate, you must act according to the local rules and not attract too much attention.

The ball overlooked the entire city and began to guide Gu Qian.

'Turn right 300 meters ahead and enter the central square.'

'Turn right and enter the central square'

There is a nearly five-meter-high bulletin board in the center of the central square. No wonder the ball can lock it in mid-air with one glance.

'Arrived at the central square, navigation...'

"Restore your normal way of speaking to me." Gu Qian'an couldn't help but say. Yuanqiu's voice had always been human since they met, and he was very uncomfortable with the sudden change to a cold mechanical voice.

The ball laughed a few times and flew over to look at the notice on it.

But the content above made it a little surprised, 'Yushan City actually... strictly prohibits interpersonal communication?'

There are more than 400 rules listed densely on the bulletin board, and nearly half of the content is about restricting social interaction.

'People must keep a distance of more than three meters between each other, cannot look at others, cannot have physical contact with others, and service staff in commercial places are not allowed to talk to guests...'

If these rules can be classified into the category of behavioral norms, the following rules make Yuanqiu a little confused.

'Residents are not allowed to eat sugary foods, are not allowed to smile in any situation...what is this?'

It shook its body, scanned all the contents on the bulletin board into the database, and picked out some useful information and read it out to Gu Qian'an.

'The city lord will treat outsiders in the concentration area every Wednesday. Alien hunting team members can live near the city lord's mansion. Team members can apply for treatment from the city lord at any time if they feel any discomfort.'

A high-level psychic is willing to provide assistance to others for free. If we only look at these rules, Bai Lezhan is more like a good man with a kind heart, but what are those strange rules for?

Gu Qi'an was still thinking when the ball flew to his side, "We need to find a place to stay first. Yushan City has a rule that people cannot go out after 7pm, and it's already 6:40."

Gu Qi'an looked up at the sky after hearing this, "Isn't this curfew a bit too early? It's not even dark yet."

Although he couldn't understand it, he had to keep his head down in the town, so he turned around and walked towards the accommodation with the ball.

Gu Qian'an walked into the hotel with the ball. The hotel lobby was empty. A separate space was separated by a whole wooden board at the front desk, with only a window for arms to extend for interaction.

The hotel's check-in process is posted above the window. Choose the room you want to stay in according to the directory on the side, knock on the window and put the coins in, and the service staff in the room will hand out the corresponding key.

There was no eye contact, no contact, and no communication during the entire process.

"You will definitely live very comfortably here... Why did you leave?" Yuanqiu quickly caught up with Gu Qian'an.

Gu Qi'an's face was calm, "I suddenly remembered something very important."

Infected by the atmosphere, the ball also became serious and asked quickly, "What's the matter?"

'We have no money. ' Gu Qianan looked at it.

Although the sphere is a comic consciousness, it does not have the ability to pinch currency with bare hands, and it is even more impossible for Gu Qian'an, an outsider, to have the currency of this world.

In short, they simply couldn't afford to stay in this hotel.

"What should we do?" Yuanqiu said anxiously, "It's almost seven o'clock."

"Don't worry," Gu Qi'an soothed, "Remember the rules you just read."

After hearing this, Yuanqiu blinked and suddenly realized, "Yes, the hunting team members provide accommodation! Come with me."

With Yuanqiu's guidance, Gu Qian soon arrived at the recruitment gate of the alien hunting team.

But just as he was about to go in, a voice came to his ear, "The Alien Hunting Team is not suitable for you."

Gu Qian'an looked at the direction where he heard the voice and saw a blond man standing by the wall looking at him very seriously. Although the other party had no intention of killing him, Gu Qian'an did not let down his guard at all. The superpowers in Yushan City all abide by the strict interpersonal codes and it is impossible for them to stop a stranger and talk when they are about to be curfewed.

In other words, this person is likely to be an outsider like him.

"Why do you say that?" he asked tentatively.

"Even if I tell you my reason now, you won't believe it. Instead, you'll think I'm a liar," the man said sincerely, "so I can't tell you for now."

These words almost broke Gu Qian'an's pensive expression. He paused for a while before speaking, "I'm sorry, if you can't give me a good reason, I can't change my decision because of a few words from a stranger."

The energy in the body has been mobilized. If the opponent turns against him, Gu Qian'an can also use the ball to transmit backup energy.

But the other party suddenly covered his heart and lowered his head. His golden hair blocked his face and Gu Qian'an could not see his expression.

"I won't hurt you. The Alien Hunting Team is not a good choice." His voice seemed to be enduring something.

After the last word fell, the space around the wall distorted and the blond man disappeared before his eyes.

The ball touched its smooth shell, 'He looks quite sincere, should we still go to the hunting team?'

"Have you read the comics?" Gu Qi'an looked at it. "A place like this that we have been warned not to go to must have secrets."

On the clock outside the building, the minute hand was approaching twelve.

'And if we don't go to the hunting party, we will be taken away by the guards in two minutes for violating the door regulations.'

He walked towards the recruitment office.
