78. Happiness

City of Spirals

What used to be just a city with a tall tower has been transformed into a huge city-state.

Water from Trislet, the largest river in the Northland, irrigates the city, and the river wharves are frequented by merchant ships that sustain the city's huge consumption.

Countless shops and residences divide the city like a chessboard, and the streets are filled with well-dressed residents.

The underground city and drainage system in the main city are clearly distinguished, there are special collectors for garbage and sewage, public baths are overcrowded every day, and the streets are clean and tidy, not at all like a new city.

However, the surrounding slums are different, most of these people without household registration are criminals and displaced people, who have no access to land, and can only do odd jobs every day to receive meager relief porridge, and have no extra energy to take care of their lives.

As a new business city, countless people want to get opportunities here every year, but more often leave with nothing.

Sitting by the pool outside the statue in the square, Alain enjoyed the sense of success.

This is the so-called becoming a CEO, marrying Bai Fumei, and reaching the peak of life...... It's a little exciting to think so, and I succeeded by accident.

Just as he was thinking, Percy had already picked up with the ice cream he had bought.

"You like the blueberry flavor." Percy handed it to him and sat down beside him.

"It's okay, but it's not as delicious as you make." Alain scooped a spoonful for him to taste, then turned his gaze to the nightingale in the square, "Does it really sing?" ”

"This nightingale sings so well that everyone feeds it, and many couples come to see it." Percy smiled, and he gave the order that no one should be caught.

"So do we." As Alain was talking, he saw the bird in the flowerbed let go of its singing voice and sang a song.

It's very moving, and it's a little familiar melody.

"Hey, this ......," Alain was stunned for a moment, "this is the nightingale!" ”

"Which one?" Percy asked.

"It's the same bird that sang to us the Sea of Aphsala, and you released it and said you only sang it to me." Alain glanced at Percy, "At that time, you still said it so nicely, and it seems that I haven't heard you sing it for so many years." ”

"It turned out to be it, but my opinion remains the same," Percy reached out and scooped Alain into his arms, blowing in his ear, "I'll sing it to you, and let you order it tonight." ”

You can order it now. Alain raised an eyebrow and acquiesced to Percy's suggestion.

Then kiss it.

The surrounding crowd has gone from liking onlookers to being surprised now, and they have simply ignored it.

They like to abuse dogs, so why should they go up and find them.

There are occasional exceptions, though, like now.

A lich floated in front of them, his red cloak hunting in the wind, his eyes jumping in the wind, and the expression on the skeleton's face could not be seen, but his gloomy aura could be felt across the square.

"I've helped you finish the final building of the portal, but what about what you promised me?" The resentment around the skeleton was almost turning into substance, especially after seeing that Alain hadn't let go of Percy's lips, and the blue effect unique to ice arrows had already appeared in the lich bone claws.

"I only get one copy of the blue quality soul essence, or you will just do it," Alan reluctantly let go of Percy, "If you want purple quality, you have to use a special relationship, just a corpse concubine." ”

And at that time, there was no agreement on what quality it was, but the vulgar soul essence is the blue quality, which is already the soul essence that can only be extracted by the legendary level of the undead, and the purple quality is something that can only be extracted by the undead of the god level, and the cost of the gold Ao will be astronomical, and the Fao can be exchanged, but this is basically a huge loss! Besides, the corpse is basically equal to these lich inflatable dolls, but they can move and talk, and they are no different from ordinary people, as for it?

"I don't accept it, it has to be purple quality to be worthy of my lover." The Lich is categorical and does not accept compromise at all.

After all, this ...... is his own teacher, and he has spent so much effort over the years, and Alain turned his attention to Percy to see his opinion.

To exchange such a thing, it must be Fao to get it, and His Excellency Bei left ten opportunities to exchange for Fao, such a large expenditure, Alain must ask Percy's opinion.

Percy thought about it for a while, but still agreed, but put forward the conditions: "The price of exchanging epic quality soul essence is too high, I can exchange it, but you must give all the information and permissions of the portal, and you must withdraw from the shares." ”

This is a very reasonable opinion, after all, the resources used by this kind of thing are too large, and it can even be said that it depends on the favor of His Excellency Bei, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is priceless.

"That's fine." The lich agreed.

"Then sign the contract, I'll contact the Mage Capital first." Alan took out a blank scroll and quickly wrote the terms, the high-level transactions of the mages must have a clear destination, and they must be booked a day in advance.

The two parties signed a pact to go to the treasury of the Mage Capital tomorrow to retrieve what he needed, and the lich went to sort out the things about the portal first and floated away.

"What kind of corpse is it that makes him obsessed with that." Alain looked curiously at his departing back.

"Maybe it's true love?" Percy smiled and hooked his fingers.

"It's very strict for a lich to lose his feelings, and this situation is too rare." Alain explained the effect of dark energy on the lich's soul, "Generally, only people who feel that they have no attachment to feelings, or who try their best to escape feelings, will turn to the lich, just because they know that the lich will not love anymore. ”

"Then it's obvious that your teacher is an exception, and his feelings resist the invasion of dark energy." Percy shook his head slightly, but the other party has become a soulless corpse, even if the high-level soul essence comes, it is just another soul with the original memory, is it worth it?

Why lose it and think about regret, he hugged Alain and kissed it hard.

Alain was satisfied, and dragged Percy back to the tower.

In the dark space, the dead silence is cold.

In the huge ice edge, a quiet and lonely woman was blocked.

Her long curly golden hair was scattered behind her, her white robe was gorgeous and noble, and her eyes were closed under her long eyelashes, but from the deep and perfect outline, you could imagine what kind of beautiful eyes would be when they opened.

A red-cloaked skeleton appeared in front of her silently.

The fire flickered in the skeleton's eyes, and it reached out to reach for the ice edge.

His speed was slow, as if he was a little hesitant, but a little blue light started from his fingertips and spread.

Flesh grew from where the blue light passed, and slender fingers, pale skin, and a handsome and gentle face under the hood of the cloak appeared in the void.

Bloody fingers touched the woman's face.

"Alinda." His voice is special, like a bass organ, "It's been so long. ”

You may never remember me.

You always have such and such wonderful people by your side, whether it is Tarn or North, how can you remember the boy you saved unintentionally.

If you had known me first, fate would not have been so cruel to you.

I will protect you, and I will not use you as a bargaining chip against North like Tarn did, let alone treat you like Ren Bei.

You were so beautiful that year, with a beautiful smile, and loved every life that passed through your hands.

You said that it is your duty and ideal to protect and heal, and you said that you want the world to be free of disputes.

I silently send you flowers, just like those who like you.

Until that day I saw you frantically trying to rush into the burning house, but you were crushed by the North Death, and I saw your husband burning in the flames, and your children crying in the flames.

Seeing the light in your eyes turn into flames, seeing you rush into the flames and die in such agony.

Later, you fell into a demon, and in order to escape my love for you, I made myself a lich, but I still can't help but follow you.

But you died again.

Death before my eyes again.

Alinda ......

Soon you can wake up and see the qiē I did for you.
