The barrier is still the same barrier, the Twilight City is still the Twilight Capital, the steampunk is still the steampunk, and the Twilight Guards are still the same group of Twilight Guards - of course, in the end, this group of people has changed a little bit from when they first met, for example, everyone generally has a circle of bandages wrapped around their heads, and the bandages in some serious cases have been wrapped from the head to the crotch, quite a dead man's spirit, anyway, after Hao Ren saw it, he sighed why these people are so desperate, everyone is injured like this, how good it is to just go back and lie down, At this time, standing on the avenue and lining up to welcome them is specifically to block Galadrow and them......
Of course, even if these people are really trying to block Galadrow, it's useless, and the dignified queen is the censor of thousands of years of seniority, what is the concept of thousands of years of seniority?
It's basically indescribable with old fritters, it's at least the level of oil residue, Taishan collapses in front of his eyes and his face doesn't change color, and his nerves are as tough as peripheral necrosis.Hundreds of scarred, colorful and grumpy Twilight guards stood on both sides of the avenue, and Galadrow and Anthony walked past the gang of men who had just been beaten by themselves, as if they were on a parade, and praised as they went: "The boy just played well." ”"You are all brave people, and the old man admires it very much.""
The soldiers have worked hard!""
This little brother, the old man is surprised to see your bones, are you interested in learning magic patterns with the old man?"
That's basically the case.Odin has awakened from centuries of chaotic slumber, the great "Old Sage" has regained control of the city in a very short time, and the Twilight Guards are now under the Iron Throne.After a brief phone call between Haoren and Odin, the crowd returned to the city from the main gate of the Twilight City, and the Steam Council greeted enthusiastically, voluntarily or somewhat, as the city's guards lined up on the steel avenue where the former Light Seekers had set out to greet the foreign heroes returning from the Nibelungen, steam chariots and ironclad soldiers lined the avenue, and the inhabitants of the Outer Rim poked their heads out of the nearby buildings in fear.
Look at what happened on the avenue: for these numb miners, life has never changed, and this unheard-of battle in front of them has left them a little at a loss.Seeing Galazor and Anthony greeting the twilight guards on the side of the road with a big grin, Hao Ren, a newcomer who had just been in office for a few years, was still a little embarrassed, and he tugged on the sleeve of the dragon queen from behind: "Speaking of this sister, let's have a friendship with the other side who just made a brain, it's okay to talk so well at this time, right?"
”"What's wrong with that," Galadrow shook his head indifferently, "I really praise them - these guys are a bit indiscriminate, but to be honest, they're quite gentle, I've fought a lot of big and small battles in my life, but it's rare to encounter a situation where someone dares to raise their head and scold me in the street when they swoop down in the form of a dragon, tsk, this is a good bunch of soldiers." ”Listening to the dragon queen's heartfelt emotion, Hao Ren pursed his lips and didn't say a word, saying in his heart that this female dragon king's thinking is really different from ordinary people, but looking at the old god next to him who is arresting who and who insists on accepting others as apprentices, he suddenly feels that Gala Zhuoer is already quite down-to-earth......
The spider robots of the Steam Six Sects were also urged out on both sides of the road to greet them, these huge and formidable black iron machines gathered their mechanical legs, crouching on both sides of the steel avenue like small fortresses, and the pairs of compound eyes on their heads flashed red, vigilantly watching Hao Ren and his party as they passed in front of them.Even orders from the Steam Council are not absolute for these special elite troops, and these scientific maniacs, who only regard the safety of the city as their only mission, still maintain a considerable degree of vigilance against the "invaders" in front of them.However, one of the spider robots suddenly shuddered when he saw a little guy in Hao Ren's team, and then unconsciously moved back half a step, and the huge movement generated by the movement of this huge robot immediately attracted Hao Ren's attention, he turned his head to take a look, and found that one of the robot's mechanical legs was obviously newly installed - and not far behind him, the little demon Elizabeth was walking next to Izax with a smirk, and the little girl was holding a mechanical ball with a complex structure in her arms, It was a stabilizer that was removed from the spider robot's stomach before, and as for the mechanical leg that was treated as a baby bump by the little girl, it had been received into the carry-on space under Hao Ren's soft grinding and hard bubbles......
Seeing this situation, Nangong May couldn't help but increase her forehead with her hand, and sighed softly: "Alas, why do you suddenly feel that we are deeply guilty?"
”"Heavy hair," Nangong Sanba hugged his arm, "We're here to help, and they're the ones who took the initiative to call." ”This unfortunate half-bucket water hunter was the only wounded in the previous battle, and he was caught by his sister's tail and thrown to the pillar next to him when he was playing the sixteenth group of poses, and he was full of resentment at the moment.At the end of the procession, Hao Ren saw a small group of people, many of them wearing the uniforms of the Steam Council, who looked like the legendary high-ranking members of the Council, and others in black robes and crowns of thorns, who were undoubtedly the spokesmen of the ancient saint Odin: the caretakers.It can be seen from the composition of this small group of people that the transfer of power in the city has been completed, but how many internal operations and thunderous means are in the transfer of power that has been completed in such a short period of time, outsiders do not know.Lily craned her head around the group of Steam Council members, then turned to Wendell regretfully and muttered, "Old man, your son of a loser isn't here." ”Wendell smiled helplessly: "Hope......
In the Steam Council, he is just an ordinary sheriff captain, and he is not qualified to appear here.And I guess he doesn't want to see me at this time. ”"Oh, I know, the worldview has collapsed," Lily nodded understandingly, "I was also quite devastated when I first found out that I was a husky, and I didn't sleep for half the night - fortunately, I forgot about it after thinking about it for the second half of the night......"
Wendell: "......?"
”"Angelica," Hao Ren came to the small group of people, and finally found an acquaintance inside, "I didn't expect the ancient saint to get things done so quickly, I thought I would have to work with the people of the Steam Council for a long time." ”Angelica smiled gently, but her answer seemed to be a bit incorrect: "The Ancient Saint is the foundation of the survival of the entire city. ”As she approached the female caretaker, Lily couldn't help but sniffle as she saw several slightly strangely dressed caregivers standing behind Angelica, with black steel masks on their faces, heavier black robes on their bodies, and a crown on their heads that was not thorns, but a circle of decorations that looked like spear tips.In these gloomy caregivers, Lily smelled a hint of blood, which made her think.Hao Ren also noticed this, and he looked at the several members of the Steam Council beside Angelica, but unfortunately he didn't know what the previous members of the Council were like—if he did, he would have noticed that a third of the high-ranking members were not present in this place.But even if he doesn't know the inside story, Hao Ren can guess something.Human nature, that's it, after hundreds of years of silence of the ancient saints, the members of the steam council have forgotten who the real ruler of the city is, for the short-lived human beings, a "king" who stopped talking hundreds of years ago is equivalent to an ancient legend, if it weren't for the twilight barrier above the head still shining, I'm afraid there would even be people who fundamentally deny the existence of the ancient saints.This tendency is not only found among the people, but also in the Steam Council.And the people of the Steam Council with this tendency are even more stubborn: they have an extra power at their disposal, which makes them even more reluctant to have an Ancient Saint suddenly wake up and command them.That's how fickle humans are.Regardless, the wise are in the majority, as is the case within the Steam Council, and the city is fully under the control of the Old Saint and his caretakers before the return of Hao Ren and his party from the Nibelungen, and Odin has paved the way for Hao Ren's subsequent work.At this time, a cloud of white light "swished" out from behind Hao Ren, and the white light circled around everyone, and then curiously wandered around, muttering as he walked: "This place ......
Looking at it from a different angle, it's really different. ”The members of the Steam Council suddenly became nervous when they saw that an "unknown organism" suddenly appeared, to be honest, they had not recovered from the big event of "the awakening of the ancient saints, the reshaping of the ritual system, and the reorganization of order", at this time, they were all stunned when they saw this, Hao Ren hurriedly said: "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, this is the soul of the World Tree - Xiaobai, don't shake around, this place is full of steam engines, and you can't be found if you fall into the steam." ”Nangong May sighed: "The soul of the World Tree has really become a little white like this......"
The speaker of the Steam Council is a calm and serious middle-aged woman named Lavinia, Hao Ren only told the other party one sentence: "The sky will be clear within twenty-four hours, after the sunshine, you have to prepare, this city will soon be uninhabitable." ”(To be continued.) )
