The moon had crept to the other side of the sky.

In the past, the Tomb Tooth team had returned to Guixiang Garden to start resting.

But today, the five figures are still shuttling around Kishiyama City.

Alley......

Alley......

Blazing fast and tireless!

In some dilapidated houses, the gangsters in Kishiyama Castle who have been idle all day long rest in the houses.

The Gravetooth squad dodged the night guards, and when the guards left, they broke into the house and woke the gangsters awake. Inquire about the whereabouts of his youth.

The Gravetooth team hadn't done anything unsafe the night before. But with the end of the assessment, their hearts became more urgent, if they wasted the lord's time because of the unfavorable work of others, they definitely didn't want to see it.

But the boy seems to have disappeared from Kishiyama Castle.

In the past, even if the Gravetooth Team didn't pay special attention, the Tombtooth Team had encountered the teenager in a daze when he was being bullied several times. I didn't care about it before, but when I wanted to look for it, even if I asked those gangsters who were hanging around all day, I couldn't get any news.

After trying to get some news from the thug failed, several members of the Gravetooth team were left in doubt.

They walked around the streets at random, and so far there was no news, and they felt that there was no point in continuing their aimless search.

"Is it really just evaporating from the world?" Blade Fang said with some confusion, "It seems that no one has seen him haunt the city since some time before we left. ”

"A strange thing. Hu Fan frowned and said, "He is a young man with no self-defense ability, he is not in Shore Mountain City, where can he go? If you want to leave Shore Mountain City, in addition to hiring orc hunters as escorts, you must have enough knowledge of the terrain of the Secret Whisper Forest and have sufficient jungle walking experience......

"Captain, the guess behind is basically impossible. "He doesn't have the money to hire orcs or the experience to survive in the jungle. If you want to leave Kishiyama City, it must be a dead end. ”

And the mental state of that teenager......

Even if he was bullied, he looked stunned, as if he was unconscious.

Immerse yourself in your own world.

"It's probably because we're not searching carefully enough. Hu Fan asserted, "We should search more carefully." The lord attaches great importance to this young man, if he can't find others, it may be a blow to Yuan Cheng!"

The others nodded.

I can't help but think of the images of the previous days.

At night, they took the statue of the city god and went to the alley where the boy once stayed.

Qin Lan also wanted to see with her own eyes, what was this young man's inner world like?

Is it just a mental illness......

Or, a real genius?

This kind of genius who is completely immersed in his own world, and doesn't even react much to the outside world, is the top existence even among the geniuses. It is precisely because they are immersed in their own world all the time that they have unbridled imagination and creativity!

Geniuses are always attracted to each other.

Qin Lan is also very fond of art.

This kind of talent in art is something that no one in Yuancheng now has!

Whether it's 'Knowledge Shrine Maiden' Romanman.

or Ju Wanqing, who is about to join Yuancheng.

None of this teenager's artistic talent.

It is conceivable that Qin Lan is eager for this kind of talent!

And when Qin Lan saw with her own eyes, the young man's graffiti in the alley.

He fell into, deeply shocked!!

This was the first time after waking up that Qin Lan felt sincere, and this feeling of shock rose.

From the heart, from the most primitive desires of the heart.

On the brick walls of the dilapidated alleys, there is a picture, crooked, as if there is no valueless 'indiscriminate' graffiti!

If you are an ordinary person, you may not be able to understand what the teenager is drawing at all. It's messy, it's unorganized, and there's no doubt that the teenager will be treated as a psychopath.

But Qin Lan is different.

As a 'first-day genius' of ancient and modern exchanges, a picture rose in his mind the moment he saw the boy's graffiti.

The kingdom of God shines brightly, and there are many buildings that look like works of art. There are sanctuaries, statues of gods, a towering bell tower, a stone bridge across a river, and a quaint and mysterious altar......

Through the juvenile's graffiti, it was conveyed to Qin Lan's mind very intuitively!

It was as if it was presented directly in front of him, causing a very strong visual impact.

A mess of graffiti in the eyes of others.

In Qin Lan's eyes, it is a picture depicting the prosperity of the divine kingdom!

"Is this the picture in your mind......

Qin Lan's eyes shook, and he captured the surging talent from this picture!

Aura and full of artistic talent, overflowing from it.

At the moment of seeing this picture-

Qin Lan immediately decided.

Be sure to bring this teenager back to Yuancheng!

Most likely, this is a gift from heaven to Yuancheng.

He.

It is an indispensable piece of the puzzle for the future development of Yuancheng!

Compared to him.

Any talent doesn't seem to be so important.

A teenager who has such a picture in his mind.

What other architects and engineers are needed?

It's just to complete the world in the boy's mind.,It's just the existence of a hand.。

And Qin Lan is confident.

His own Yuan Cheng is also a teenager, and the only choice that can reproduce the world in his mind.

There is no other choice.

It was precisely because I understood Qin Lan's importance to this young man.

The Gravetooth Squad is so desperate to run around.

But in exchange, the result is that the boy seems to have disappeared.

How can this not make people depressed and anxious?

Holding on to the last glimmer of hope in their hearts, the Tomb Tooth team began a more detailed investigation.

In the beginning, they still had a glimmer of hope.

But this glimmer of hope also quietly disappeared as the search progressed.

There is no trace of it.

The search for this act seems to have become a mechanical act.

The double exhaustion of body and mind made the Tomb Tooth team not notice the quietly bright sky for a while.

One night, it passed.

......

"No?"

Looking at the Tomb Tooth team in an extremely depressed mental state, Qin Lan sighed in her heart.

This is the worst-case scenario.

Only Qin Lan knew how much she valued that young man.

The importance even surpasses that of the late Qing Dynasty, far beyond anyone else in Yuancheng. It has reached a level comparable to Romanman and Wuya.

He was still expecting good news.

But what awaits is such a message that people don't want to believe.

"Have you looked for it?"

Hu Fan was silent, just lowered his head, and was sluggish.

"I'm sorry to disappoint your hopes. ”

Qin Lan's brows furrowed deeply, and then he sighed heavily. The heart is like a stone pressing down, and the depression cannot be expressed.

"Well, it's not your fault. ”

The Gravetooth team remained silent.

It may be that they did not successfully complete the task assigned to them by Qin Lan, which made them feel a little blameful. And it is also a task that Qin Lan attaches so much importance to.

"I'm just thinking. If he wasn't in Shore Mountain City, where could he go?" Qin Lan thought of the worst-case scenario.

It is precisely because there is no way to express the talent and talent in the chest that the young man is often immersed in the construction of his spiritual world 'Kingdom of God'.

And in this state of mind, if this teenager stumbles into the jungle of codes......

Even in the suburbs of Shore Mountain City, where crystal beasts are rarely infested, as long as they encounter crystal beasts, they will inevitably die in the mouth of crystal beasts.

If this is really the case, the regret and depression in Qin Lan's heart may not be able to be expressed for the rest of his life.

The fall of a genius -

When he thought of this thought, Qin Lan's heart felt as if it had been burned by fire.

But what can he do?

There is no way or way to look for.

The best time to meet the teenager has been missed.

Some people miss it and never see each other again.

Qin Lan sighed heavily.

Maybe, Yuancheng and that boy are really inseparable. 、

Maybe it's a big joke that God has played on himself.

Since you don't let yourself get him, then don't let him know the news of the boy!

As long as he saw the abstract picture painted by the young man, no genius of the same quality could sit still.

Creation makes people.

"That's it, that's it. ”

Qin Lan said abruptly: "You guys go and rest." A day later, we departed for the return to Yuancheng. ”

The face of the tomb tooth team changed slightly, and they all clenched their fists and begged: "Lord, maybe we didn't look carefully enough." If you give us a certain amount of time, check carefully......"

"No need. Qin Lan said, "You yourself know the result. ”

It's like a person who has lost his wallet and looks for it over and over again on the road he once walked.

For the extremely slim hope that exists in my heart, I do meaningless things over and over again.

In fact, it is very likely that the lost wallet has been picked up by someone else and taken it for himself.

Even if you look carefully on the original road, it will be in vain.

The Gravetooth Team couldn't let go.

But it's just like what Qin Lan said.

They also knew that it would probably be futile to continue their search.

With an expression of incomprehension, he quietly retreated.

After falling into silence, Qin Lan was forced to start thinking.

If there's no way to get that boy—

The chief engineer who renovated Yuancheng could only be replaced.

But is there really a candidate who can satisfy Qin Lan?

The infrastructure of a city is very important, not only where people live, but also has a great relationship with happiness and productivity. It is also an important carrier of urban culture.

The style of a city is the most intuitive business card that reflects the appearance of the city.

After seeing the inner world of the young man, after seeing the picture of the 'kingdom of God' in his imagination.

Qin Lan asked herself, can she really accept Yuancheng, which has become extremely mediocre?

Qin Lan's character is to keep improving.

There is no room for any defects.

At this initial stage, any development of Yuan City will become the cornerstone of the huge empire in the future.

Once formed, it is difficult to change.

Do you really have a way to accept it?

The answer, of course, is no.

But if you don't accept it, what can you do?

Qin Lan could only abandon the original aversion and implement the plan-

He will never give up looking for the traces of the teenager.

Even if there is hope as small as spider's silk, he will not give up.

Until then, drag it out for as long as you can.

It is best to find a teenager before Metaverse is ready, or a candidate to replace the teenager.

Qin Lan sighed softly.

"Wang Kang, come to me. ”

Qin Lan used the slave mark to deliver the news to Wang Kang.

"Lord Jojin. "Wang Kang arrived soon.

"Is the engineer you mentioned who presided over the construction of the walls of Kishiyama Castle still in Kishiyama Castle?"

Wang Kang said calmly: "That's right. And after the construction of the city wall, in order not to leak the specific data of the city wall, the city lord's mansion unloaded the mill and killed the donkey, and put him under house arrest in disguise. Every day there was a guard at the door of the house to prevent him from entering or leaving. ”

"In addition to the construction of the city walls, what other projects did he preside over?"

"He graduated from the Holy Redemption School of Architecture...... He was born in a professional class. In some basic projects, there is extremely rich experience in groundbreaking. construction of roads, construction of bridges, defense works...... These are what he is good at, and because of his professional background, the projects he presides over have strong stability. ”

"There may not be a lot of wild ideas and creativity, but it's about quality. If you talk about the degree of practicality and quality control, I can pack the ticket, and he will definitely not lose to anyone!"

Wang Kang gushed endlessly for Qin Lan, eager to introduce all his advantages to Qin Lan.

After talking a lot, I realized that I had said a little too much, so I smiled and stopped.

Is it about quality......

This attribute is also rare.

Rather, some projects do not require much artistry to be built. Quality and steadfastness have become the most important key points.

It's like building a road.

No fancy attributes need to exist, only quality and practicality are eternal truths.

If this person is really as Wang Kang said, it can be said that he is one of the talents that Yuancheng needs the most at the moment.

Keep the road clear.

This is the highest priority.

Without roads, there is no trade.

What can be done without trade?

And Yuancheng doesn't just need to build roads.

Overhauling water conservancy is also an extremely urgent issue in front of Qin Lan.

Integrating and building these projects first would also give Qin Lan a certain amount of time to find the traces of that young man.

Although recruiting that engineer into Yuancheng is likely to destroy the relationship with Kishiyama Castle.

But for Yuancheng, its own development is the most important thing!

Compared with development, whether the relationship with Kishiyama Castle deteriorates or not is not so important.

Although Kishiyama Castle is very powerful, most of it relies on the strength of the internal forces of Kishiyama Castle.

Chamber of Commerce, Beast Hunting Team, Tournament Arena...... These forces within Kishiyama Castle are the reason why Kishiyama Castle is strong.

The power controlled by the City Lord's Mansion is not very powerful compared to these forces.

The lord of the city, also only as a manager. This is also the inevitable result of this kind of city that relies on the development of the crystal beast industry, since the dividends of eating and killing the crystal beast have developed into a pool, the development of the power of the city lord's mansion itself is bound to be unable to keep up with the large number of external forces pouring in.

Once there is a clear difference in the strength of the two sides, the influence of the City Lord's Mansion on those foreign forces will not be so important.

In a city like Kishiyama Castle, which depends on the crystal beast industry for its livelihood, it has an obvious characteristic. It is the city lord's mansion, which is only used as an existence to maintain order and stability, and to ensure the normal operation of the city's functions.

In fact, it has no influence on the various forces in the city. Even the prosperity of the city depends on the balance maintained between the various forces, as well as the management of the orc hunter associations, merchant associations and other associations scattered all over the place......

Even the Muyuan Chamber of Commerce, Qin Lan dared to fight with it, let alone the City Lord's Mansion.

As long as it is enough to tilt the balance of value in Qin Lan's heart, then Qin Lan will not hesitate to make a decision!
