Chapter Twenty-Four: But It Can't Be Sold for Money

The event was over, and it was supposed to be a gratifying celebration, but due to the weather in this hellish place, we had to keep our heads down. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After knowing the location of the royal city, we have a general idea of where we are on the earth.

Although it is a thousand years for the aborigines, compared to us, it is only a memory of two years ago, and the map of the former eastern plains is still imprinted in our minds, as long as we are willing to recall it, it will always surface on the water of memory.

"Whew, although the original gloomy aura has been dispelled, but looking at this environment, it is estimated that it will take hundreds of years before it can be a little green."

"But this is already the fastest speed of natural restoration, and you must know that if you put it in the real world, there is no special climate that cannot be formed for more than tens of thousands of years." Akai said.

After a day or so of trekking, it seemed that we were closer to our original home.

I just don't know what will be left of my hometown if I really find it.

"It's not going to be blown up, is it?" I suddenly remembered the great war between magic and technology in the history of this world, and the odds of affecting our family seemed to be 100%・・・・・・・

Shaking my head, I can only hope that nothing will happen in my hometown.

We are now on a small hillside, with all the things within a radius of ten miles.

However, there was still nothing left on the icefield, and there were no strange buildings to be seen, and the only thing that could be seen was the huge crater in the distance behind him.

The wind and snow have stopped, and the weather conditions are good today, and there is no fog.

"Is this the direction, really not mistaken?" I was a little skeptical, and I always felt like we were on the wrong track.

Akai took out his compass and glanced at it, then looked at the sun in the sky, and looked at the opposite position.

"Don't worry, I'm often running outside than you who stay at home all day long, and I have more say than you in terms of direction." Akai put the compass back, "Heading northeast, considering the weather, it is estimated that there is still a day or two to go." ”

I nodded, "That's great." ”

"Is it good for the kidneys or very good~"

"It has to be kidneys." I give a thumbs up.

"But the pronunciation is the same, Chinese is really profound." Akai spread his hands.

――――――――――――――――I'm a dividing line――――――――――――――――

As Akai said, after we found the right direction, we walked slowly forward.

No matter how we walk, except for the terrain that will be a little uneven, the rest of the scenery is snow-white, and we will choose to rest for an hour to adjust after walking for two hours.

By the way, boil some water to replenish your strength.

At night, digging a well-sized cave underground to rest, walking at night is not our forte.

In this way, after two days, about the same as Akai had estimated, we arrived at our destination - our hometown in the Eastern Plains - very smoothly.

That is, the hometown of the week.

"Oh oh oh oh ~ ~ !!!!!"

"Praise the sun!"

Looking at the tall house in front of us, which looked like a fortress without any decorations, but was very sturdy at first glance, Akai and I sincerely sighed in our hearts.

In order to be practical, I used stone bricks for all the places except the floor, and after thousands of years, this building is still very strong and erected there under the ravages of wind and rain.

I just don't know why the third floor and the roof seem to have been torn off, and the outer ring of walls has all collapsed, leaving only some broken walls.

According to our guess, it is estimated that the outer wall has resisted some strong shock wave and caused the collapse, probably a nuclear bomb, a nuclear bomb, a nuclear bomb・・・・・・

"I'll just say, the building really needs to be strong and durable."

"Yes, yes, yes."

Akai opened the door as he spoke, and for a moment, the internal situation was presented to us.

"Although it looks good on the outside, it is very badly damaged on the inside."

Admittedly, under the erosion of time, it is already thankful that more than half of the things here can be preserved. At first glance, there are still several dilapidated stone stoves in the hall on the first floor.

Well, there seem to be a couple of pretty old boxes.

"It's really broken." I stretched out my hand, knocked on a glass window that seemed to be in good condition, and then looked at the glass slag that immediately shattered to the ground and said helplessly.

Akai went upstairs to check on the situation, but since the stairs were broken, he went up with a teleportation arrow.

The white light flashed, and I teleported straight upstairs.

The second floor, if I'm not mistaken, was the bedroom, but now it seemed empty, and the fragile furniture had long since been tormented by the years and had disappeared into the void.

"Nothing, let's go down and take a look at the boxes." Akai said helplessly.

"Okay."

The third floor was lifted off, so there is a huge old home, and now the only thing left is a few broken boxes in the corner of the hall, but I don't know what is in it.

The old antiques left by myself thousands of years ago・・・・・・ this statement is really inexplicable. It's a pity that even if it's an antique, there's no place in the world where you can sell it.

Back on the first floor, Akai and I took a deep breath, then slowly opened the broken boxes, and the pop-up window jumped out, revealing the contents inside.

"I'm prepared, but it's a shame to see a pile of garbage."

I looked at the boxes full of garbage, this should be the boxes for miscellaneous items, the contents of which have been reduced to dust by the erosion of thousands of years, leaving nothing behind.

"Natsu, there's a lot of stuff left in this box." On the side, Akai's voice was surprised.

I immediately leaned in.

"What is it, take a closer look."

The box that Akai turned over seemed to be the one we used to store ore before, and a large amount of ore was placed at once, iron, coal mine, lapis lazuli, and a few gold ingots.

The ore does not disappear over time, so it can be preserved unharmed.

This is a box full of ore.

"And a dozen diamonds!" Akai took a pale blue crystal out of the corner of the box.

I smiled dryly and rubbed my temples, I had dug up so many diamonds and put them at home as decorations, except for a diamond pickaxe and two diamonds to craft an enchantment table, we never used a single diamond again, and we were usually bored to hold it in our hands and look at it.

Now looking at the fist-sized diamond in my hand, my mood is really a little complicated.

But anyway, the ore is there, and the mood is a little better. Of course, it is not to the point of ecstasy, our state of mind cultivation is still quite high, and in a word, we can see it very openly. It's good to have something left, but it doesn't matter if you don't have it, and it won't affect our future lives.

"Huh?"

Two shape-shaped and long-shaped things appeared on Akai's hands.

"Is this ・・・・・・ horse armor and saddle?" Akai looked at the item in his hand and blinked, "This thing is still there." ”

It's a pity that the two horses that accompanied us for a while are no longer there.

However, if you have these two things, you can consider finding two more horses when you go back.

After continuing to search and putting all the ore in the backpack, there was nothing left for us to take with us. It can be said that our biggest gain is to get all the large amount of ore that we have saved in the end and have not been used much in the end.

This feeling is like playing a survival game, collecting a lot of supplies, saving money, and the number of guns and bullets even exceeds three digits, and the result is that you have cleared the customs before you have time to use anything・・・・・・

No way, Akai and I are also a bit of a collector in every sense, which is why we hoarded this large amount of ore, and even more than a dozen diamonds.

"Yo Xi, it's almost, Akai, rest for the night, and we'll go back the next day."

"Understood."

This place has been looted.

Huh? Why do you say looting, it's obviously our own hometown・・・・・・

And so, after a peaceful and cold night, we got up and left.

As for the remains of this building, let it stay here quietly, and perhaps one day, it will give a reliable shelter to travelers passing by.
