Chapter 85 Preparation for Departure
"Jielou City, with all the buildings erected, looks like a thousand sails crossing the sea."
Heshia closed the information in her hand, and the image of the dilapidated and desolate city still echoed in her mind.
There are not many people living in the North Second District at present. It occupies nearly one million square kilometers of land, but has only 8 million people, and most of them are concentrated in three semi-abandoned cities, one of which is Jielou City.
"The most lively event in Jielou City every year is the annual 'Liuhuo Festival', which takes place in mid-July. At this time, there will be more tourists visiting there, and it will be more lively and safer." This is how it was introduced in the forum. Some photos and images taken were also posted in it. You can see layers of red flags fluttering, incense ash filled the air, and devout people crowded on the winding mountain road to worship gods.
In the interstellar age, does anyone still believe in gods? Although there are many similar questions on the star network, whenever people are still uneasy or not strong enough in their hearts, and need to rely on and comfort, the need for spiritual sustenance will arise.
The person in the dark witnessed your pain and discomfort. You confessed your distress and got some kind of release. You seemed to feel much better. The federal government has never advocated this kind of belief, nor has it deliberately suppressed it. As long as you act within the designated circle and scope, and do not interfere or overstep the line, it will be fine.
After learning the information on the Internet, Heshia felt that it seemed necessary for her to go to the "Jielou City" in the North Second District. Although she might not find any clues, she was also a little curious in her heart, why the old man mentioned by Hack judged that her mother was from the "Jielou City".
The time is this month. After flipping through the calendar, Heshia suddenly found that the time point just coincided with the "Liuhuo Festival", but she wondered if it would be a bit bad to take a long vacation.
"So Danterian also wants to go out and play during the vacation?" After listening to Heshia's thoughts, Belfinger touched his chin.
"It's not impossible to take a long vacation. For example, 'Boutis' often disappears for several days before coming to work. 'Naberius' needs to select fabrics and floral decorations, so he often takes leave."
"It's okay for Danterian to take a leave, but I'm afraid some of the stable customers who have worked hard to operate will disappear." She said with some concern.
"Yes, but I will write a good notice. I hope everyone can wait for me for a week." Heshia thought about it and could only do this for now.
"Oh, only a week? I thought Danterian went on a trip for at least half a month." Belfinger shook his rabbit ears.
"How can it be so long." The girl explained that she was going to the North Second District.
"There, by the way, July is hot, it is indeed the best time of the year to go there."
"But, Jielou City is not safe, or the entire North Second District is not safe." The rabbit-eared maid reminded the girl.
"Arpeggio City is a typical densely populated city. There are riot control units every few miles on the streets. Various surveillance cameras are distributed at the corridors and street corners. Crime is rare. However, it is different in the North District 2. Not only are there few surveillance cameras there, but some of them are not even connected to the intra-planetary network. There are no riot control robots. Even the local government is semi-autonomous and controlled by the locals."
"So I said that tourists generally only go there in July, and because they want to maintain the local tourism economy, the local government will also be restrained and pay attention during this period."
Belfinger said the things to pay attention to when going to the North District 2, which made Heshia have to pay attention and be cautious, considering whether to wait a few more years and go there when she becomes stronger.
However, the next day, when 'Botis' heard about her concerns, she made a seemingly good suggestion.
"Danterian can take it with you. Although this guy is a little naughty, he is actually very strong in terms of concealment and aggressiveness." The maid with green hair pointed at the big spider in the girl's arms. At this time, it was eating the snacks Heshia fed it, and its big black eyes were rolling.
"It?" The girl tilted her head, feeling that if she went out with a big spider on her head, she would definitely be stopped.
Seeing the girl's confusion, Butis came to her side and knocked on the big spider's head with one hand.
"Get up and work, Danterian doesn't believe you can protect her~" Her words immediately made the big spider anxious.
After that, the girl felt her hands empty, and then this burrowing wolf spider with dark blue thorns jumped onto the table, and the veins on its body shone with a burst of light, and then it went directly behind her and disappeared.
Heshia stood up quickly, lifted her maid skirt and looked around, and then turned around in place, but still didn't see the big spider.
She touched her head, but still didn't see it. Heshia blinked her eyes, and a faint blue light floated, and then she found this guy in her shadow.
Race: Burrowing Wolf Spider Subspecies
Status: Healthy (strong magic power)
Job: Withering Sequence 4 Ghost Face Spider (Rare Brilliant Gold Level)
Talent:
[Wolf Spider Poison] (Rare): Extremely toxic, causing breathing difficulties and irregular heartbeats after poisoning, which will kill the victim in a short period of time.
[Azure Velvet Thorns] (Excellent): The hairy thorns on the body allow the spider to gain subtle perception of sound and vibration, and can also be used to emit a deterrent hissing sound.
Abilities:
[Shadow Hide] (Rare): Allows the spider to hide in the shadows and not be easily discovered, similar to a ghost.
[Fast Flash] (Excellent): Makes one's nerve reflexes faster to gain high-speed action capabilities similar to frame drops.
[Ghost Blue Poison] (Rare): Extraordinary toxin that cannot be neutralized by ordinary serum. It can make the victim's body stiff and the mental consciousness lose perception of the outside world, like a lost soul.
[Chitin Shell] (Excellent): The body and limbs are strengthened to a certain extent, and can resist low-powered firearms.
Skills: [Stealth Lv.6] [Toughness Lv.3] [Speed Lv.5] [Super Toxin Lv.5]
After being nursed back by Heshia, the big spider did not advance, but its overall strength rose a level from the previous Excellent Brilliant Gold Level to the Rare Brilliant Gold Level. If she wants it to really advance, she may have to go to Iridium Academy to learn enough knowledge and secrets.
"So it was hiding in my shadow." After the girl found out, she slowly squatted down, and then a burst of light blue magic floated on her fingertips, tapping the top of the big spider's head, making it appear. "
Speaking of which, you are all withering sequence jobs, and it's easy to cooperate. This way, you can hide from some old and simple inspection equipment." Butisi nodded slightly.
"But, is it really okay to take this guy out?" The girl picked up the big spider again, put it in front of her, and looked at it carefully.
"It was raised by Butisi, and I'm a little afraid that it will really bite someone, and it will be over if it can't be saved." The girl shook her head and spoke with a little worry.
"Well, I'll prepare three special serums for you. Just give them to the other party in time. In addition, Danterian, in fact, many times, conflicts arise because the other party feels that they can bully you. When you show some aggression and deterrence, most people will not act rashly, which can also reduce a lot of trouble." "
When necessary, you can take it out and play in front of you. This will scare away many people who try to chat up and embarrass you." 'Botis' is like an evil big sister who teaches the little white rabbit Heshia some necessary methods.
"Is it really possible?" The girl was half-believing and half-doubting, but still looked at the big spider in her hand.
"No problem. Besides, there are all kinds of people in the North Second District. Even if Heshia is a little special, it won't attract attention."
"Then, let's try it?" The girl was finally moved by what Botis said and agreed to take the big spider on a long trip.
In the afternoon, Heshia, led by Belfinger, came to the manager to ask for leave.
"Going out to travel and visit relatives?" The manager 'elegantly' took a sip of scented tea, then looked at the scenery in the distance, as if she was also thinking of her childhood.
"Young people are still so energetic and impulsive." She seemed to have some sighs.
"Go, but after this long vacation, you can't continue to take long vacations for the next two months."
"Okay, thank you, manager." Although the manager often reminds the girl of a certain animal, in a sense, he is indeed a good person.
"Yeah, yeah." Hearing the gratitude in the girl's voice, the manager was very pleased, and seemed to be a little happy in her heart. Then, under the attention of the girl and Belfinger, she picked up the bag at hand and slowly walked out.
It's time for her to rest again. Work is really 'hard'.
After solving the problem of taking leave, Heshia is about to embark on a journey to find her mother's life experience. I don't know if there are still people who know her mother in Jielou City, or maybe this is just a disappointing attempt.
