Chapter 17 Belllit
[Host, the monitoring is ready. Do you want to activate it now?]
[Hmm? Let me see?]
Chu Cheng was strolling leisurely. After hearing the system's words, he turned around and entered a deserted alley. Chu Cheng tapped a few times in the air, and a faint light suddenly appeared beside him. In the air, the stars gathered into a vague shape.
Chu Cheng stretched out his hand and tentatively placed it under the ball of light. With a snap, the ball of light condensed into a solid bird, standing steadily on Chu Cheng's finger, looking around in confusion. The deep wound on its wings that could see the bone was even more shocking.
[Why does the system's product look as stupid as you?]
[No way! ! ! It's very smart! ! ! You can monitor by switching to his perspective.
According to the system's explanation, Chu Cheng tried to switch the perspective in his mind. As soon as he slowed down, he was startled by the suddenly enlarged face. The bronc, which is still in its infancy, is small in size. It looks at Chu Cheng as if he is a giant. The huge difference in perspective made Chu Cheng, who switched back, feel dazed for a moment. His feet staggered and his back hit the wall directly.
"Hiss..."
Chu Cheng felt the rough gravel friction through the back of the fabric, and his eye sockets were suddenly filled with saline. He straightened up by supporting the wall with his elbows, and Chu Cheng was also careful not to let his dirty hands that touched the wall rub against his clothes.
[I give up. Why didn't you tell me that my body would react so badly?]
[I didn't expect that either...]
The guilty system did not refute Chu Cheng's accusation, but quietly took the Brobird back. Chu Cheng rubbed his throbbing forehead, shook his windbreaker, and exchanged something from the system mall
[Clean my clothes, and then throw the Brobird to Carl]
[Yes sir!]
Upon hearing the amnesty, the system immediately restored Chu Cheng's clothes to a clean state, without a single hair left, and then immediately packed up the newly born Brobird and sent it away.
It was still morning when he arrived in Bellit. After experiencing a series of things, it was gradually getting dark.
The setting sun was like a glowing fireball, with only half of its face showing above the horizon, shrouding the earth in a fiery dusk, with every leaf stained with layers of blood red. A thunder dragon pierced through the layers of scorching clouds, its tail slicing across the sky, creating a gap and finding a stage for the last afterglow to end.
Chu Cheng raised his arm to cover his eyes and looked up at the sky, watching the thunder dragon fly rapidly and finally disappear into the clouds, until the afterglow burned out, and fell into extreme silence for no reason. Accompanied by the sound of bells coming from somewhere, starting from the statue of the God of the Sky in the city center, street lights like sparks quickly spread outward, lighting up the bustling streets inch by inch.
"It's really brightly lit..."
Chu Cheng rarely saw such a scene full of fireworks. Before he came to the Wanjie Continent, he was either busy with disputes with the Chu family or busy increasing his independence. It seemed that there were only two things: being busy and going to be busy. This is the first time that I have been strolling leisurely in the streets like this
[Does the host like this kind of scenery?]
[Like? Maybe not, I just find it novel... Maybe when the day comes when I don't have to be so busy, I will like this kind of scenery. After
briefly getting lost in the streets with overlapping lights and shadows, Chu Cheng soon continued on his way. As an island floating in the air, Bellit is not very big. Even if Chu Cheng walks at this speed, it is enough to arrive before noon the next day.
So Chu Cheng simply didn't sleep, and planned to stroll to the foot of the mountain and find a tourist hotel to stay in, just to enjoy the local customs and people. Anyway, his body is now in the Schrödinger's species, and he will be completely lively even if he doesn't sleep for a night.
Walking through the bustling crowd and heading towards the suburbs, Chu Cheng gradually left the voices behind, and the feeling of loneliness gradually became more real under the moonlight.
[Host, what should we do if Willdong doesn't give you the token?]
[What can we do? Just ignore it.]
Chu Cheng's careless answer could not comfort the worried system. The beeping electronic sound of the system was like fireworks, messing around in Chu Cheng's mind.
[Don't worry, I really can't figure it out. The Golden Hat didn't say that he has a way. Why are you so anxious?]
The system finally shut down, and Chu Cheng finally had time to think about Willdong carefully. To be honest, Chu Cheng didn't think that Willdong was simply grieving for his deceased wife. After all, as an immortal and a short-lived lover, this was a hurdle that could not be overcome, and he would not have failed to anticipate it.
Chu Cheng had never had a love experience, so it was difficult to expect him to believe in love. But it was not that Chu Cheng doubted Will Dong's loyalty to his wife, but he felt something was wrong.
This auction house was also a witness to Will Dong and Hua Xian's love, and it had been involved in most of their love life. Since Will Dong loved his wife so much, how could he just hand it over to a person with bad intentions and push the reputation of Sobey Sea Auction House to a place where there would be no return?
The Martin boots with metal buckles made the grass creak, the ribbon of the windbreaker lightly passed over the grass tip, and the silver hair was covered with a layer of hazy gauze by the moonlight in the night.
There was nothing worth noting along the way. Chu Cheng walked and stopped like this, and he arrived much earlier than expected. He reached the foot of Mount Ode before noon the next day. There were many tourists gathered at the ticket office at the foot of the mountain. Chu Cheng stood in the pavilion and watched from afar
[Host, aren't you going to buy a ticket? ]
[I'm not taking the tourist route, why should I buy a ticket?]
[Then how are you going to get in? ]
[Teleport]
[??? Then why didn't you teleport at the beginning? ??? Why do I have to walk all night? ??? ? ]
[I am happy to do it, what's it to you?]
The system, which was scolded by Chu Cheng again, learned its lesson this time. It simply said nothing and opened the mall, letting Chu Cheng do it himself. Chu Cheng bought the teleportation item with ease and set the location not far from Willdon
[Why didn't the host land directly this time like he did when he killed the boss?]
[Because I don't want to spend money to buy invincibility and immunity, you spend money every day]
The system has become accustomed to daily attacks, and after a few electronic fireworks, it hid. Chu Cheng moved forward with difficulty along the grass that was half a leg high. He even secretly asked Tengman to help him clear a path. But he didn't dare to move too much, for fear of being recorded in the comics.
The deeper he went into the forest, the more lush the plants became. Various grasses that Chu Cheng couldn't name had grown to almost half a person's height, and the trees were much more fierce than what he had seen in Ataco.
'Something is wrong...'
Chu Cheng was quick to realize that this might be a breakthrough. This place doesn't have any special power source, nor is it managed specially. It shouldn't be possible to grow crops with such a big difference. Even if the plants in the wild grow well, they shouldn't be so good.
Unless...someone did it on purpose...
Chu Cheng squinted his eyes and looked up, taking a look at the surrounding environment, and scratched his ear with his fingers.
After walking about two kilometers, Chu Cheng saw a house built in the middle of the forest. This wooden house looks not much different from the small wooden house in Altakorical, but it is twice as big and the simplicity is the same. Chu
Cheng was not polite, and walked towards the wooden house as if he was going back to his own home. He didn't see anyone until he stood at the door. Between kicking the door open and knocking on it to ask, Chu Cheng chose to be polite. He kicked the door open while asking where the person was.
"Is anyone there?"
The house was empty, and there was no one there. However, some of the furnishings showed that there were traces of life here for many years.
"No one..."
Although he came up empty-handed, Chu Cheng did not feel annoyed. Instead, he looked around with great interest. Although the wooden house was simply decorated, it was carefully decorated. Whether it was the carpets, the wind chimes, or the carefully polished furniture, every detail showed the owner's tenderness.
This not-so-big wooden house even has a whole wall of bookshelves, which are neatly stacked with thick books, much like a warm forest cabin in a fairy tale.
[Wow, this Willdon loves learning so much, the range of this book is too big]
Chu Cheng is not exaggerating, this bookshelf has everything from "Analysis of the Situation of Ancient Gods" to "One Hundred Tips for Dealing with Elves", and even chaos theory and time reshaping.
Just as Chu Cheng was strolling in Willdon's house with great interest, the wooden door behind him creaked.
"Are there guests coming? I'm so sorry that I couldn't greet them."
Unlike the false and arrogant tone of the dead boss, the real Willdon's voice is calm and warm, like the warm winter sun shining on you, which makes people feel comfortable.
Chu Cheng turned around and saw Wei Erdong who had just returned from an outing. As expected of an immortal, like the golden hat, you can't tell that age has any effect on their faces. Wei Erdong didn't seem to care about Chu Cheng's rudeness at all. He put down the basket in his hand with a smile and walked straight to the corner of the table.
"Fruit tea or nectar?"
Without waiting for Chu Cheng to answer, Wei Erdong picked up a sealed funnel that looked like it was made of banana leaves.
"Nectar, you must have drunk fruit tea in the city, but wild nectar is better."
Chu Cheng leaned against the bookshelf and watched Wei Erdong skillfully boil water to cook nectar. He was so gentle that you couldn't tell that he was a man who had been a widow for decades for his wife.
Chu Cheng folded his arms and didn't say anything, and Wei Erdong didn't start a conversation. For a while, the wooden house was quiet.
After a long while, Willdong seemed not to notice Chu Cheng's open staring at him, and smiled as he handed the cup to Chu Cheng,
"Okay, be careful of the burns."
Chu Cheng was not shy, and took it and took a sip. It tasted really good, not as sweet as honey, but with a bit more mellow and smooth milky aroma.
While cleaning the table, Willdong brought the topic back to the right track
, "I know the purpose of your visit, but I will not hand over Lulu's keepsake. Please go back."
Chu Cheng tilted his head, looked at Willdong's thin back, and said the words he had prepared before,
"Even if the fake Willdong turns the auction house that carries your and your memories into a disgusting and despicable place, you don't mind?"
Willdong With an expression of indifference, he tidied the room and placed the baskets filled with things on the shelf, not affected by Chu Cheng's words at all .
"Well, since it has been handed over, it is someone else's thing... I don't want to get involved in the secular world anymore. It's nice to live in the forest that Lulu likes for the rest of my life."
Hearing this, Chu Cheng shrugged, put down his arms, stood up, put his arms in his windbreaker pockets and walked out the door. It seemed that he had given up lobbying. Wei'erdong's eyes flickered, and he saw the earring flashing in his hair. When he came to his senses, the man had already walked to the door.
It seemed that he didn't expect Chu Cheng to give up so easily. Wei'erdong looked very happy, but when he was about to speak, Chu Cheng's next sentence made his pupils shrink suddenly.
"If Lulu, whom you love, knew that you have been using innocent children for human experiments, do you think she would rather have never seen you?"
