Chapter 22: The Treehouse Girl

Uriel City is not as highly restored to the technology of the pre-disaster city as the magic city of Belle, and the Inhumans here are better at using their abilities to create some fantasy things that they never dared to think of before. Like a giant frozen cathedral. At first glance, it was created using an ice-based ability, and the tower was surrounded by countless pillars of fire. The sky-high flames make this tower a permanent landmark of the city of Uriel. Or in front of the super giant tree they are currently walking to, the girl Yin Hao rescued is named Zhang Xiaobei, he went out of the city to pick some herbs for his grandmother at home, and she is an Inhuman resident who lives on this tree. The three of them simply introduced themselves to each other, of course, Yin Hao still used the pseudonym Yin Ritian, and he also gave Gray a pseudonym Yutian.

She told them that above the giant tree was a community of tens of thousands of people. Inhumans make their homes and live in this tree.

"This guy is too good. Yin Hao sighed. This was the first time he had come to the core city of the Inhumans since the disaster. It was an eye-opener. This supergiant tree may be visually estimated to be tens of thousands of hectares. The trunk of the tree with no end in sight goes straight up into the sky. The trees have a circular road with layers of doors, large and small, on the trunks. Inside the gate are probably the residents who live here, and there are dozens of giant trees in such a residential community in this city of Uriel, which is the city of Inhumans built by the Inhumans with their powers.

The two followed Zhang Xiaobei all the way up. Zhang Xiaobei also enthusiastically introduced this place to these two newcomers. The entire city of Uriel was designed by a city planner who is now the city's mayor, Cole. The city has its own character. It takes Inhuman's abilities to the extreme, and Cole is an enthusiast obsessed with the study of abilities. What he advocates is a return to the bosom of nature, where the whole city is made of fire, ice, water, wood, and earth. and other basic natural elements, abandoning the original complicated technology. There is no doubt that the city is the result of the strangers' abilities. It's a capital of abilities fueled entirely by Inhumans.

The three of them walked along the path around the tree, and along the way, the Inhuman residents used their abilities to do all kinds of trivial things in life. It's like a peaceful village in a tree.

Finally, the three of them stopped in front of a wooden door, and Zhang Xiaobei put his hand on the wooden door and activated his ability. Zhang Xiaobei's ability is "Glow." He glowed slightly through his hands, and the light was exceptionally warm. The magic circle on the wooden door sensed Zhang Xiaobei's ability and opened it automatically. Yin Hao and the others came to Zhang Xiaobei's home at the invitation of Zhang Xiaobei.

There is a hole in the interior of this treehouse. The interior is very simple and all wooden. But surprisingly spacious and comfortable. The wooden environment does not give a very oppressive feeling. The room is a 4-bedroom layout. There is another door all the way inside. The two walked through the living room under the leadership of Zhang Xiaobei to the door, Zhang Xiaobei repeated the operation of the previous door, and the door opened. The true structure of the Giant Tree community was revealed in front of them, and it turned out that the interior of each Giant Tree community was hollowed out, with public facilities such as markets, entertainment venues, shopping malls, and restaurants. It is a very complete living community system.

"It's amazing, you can do a lot of things that you can't do in science and technology before, and you can do this with the abilities of the Inhumans, Mayor Cole seems to be a powerful person. Yin Hao said.

Just as the two of them were looking down on the interior of the entire giant tree community, a young girl with outstanding looks in the distance, holding an old grandmother, waved at Zhang Xiaobei.

"Zhuo Zhuo, grandma, you are back. Zhang Xiaobei looked at the two of them happily and said.

Yin Hao and the others also looked in the direction where Zhang Xiaobei was speaking.

At the same time, the girl named Zhuo Zhuo also saw Yin Hao, the two strange men, she hurriedly supported her grandmother beside her, walked over to this side, and then pulled Zhang Xiaobei aside and asked, "Xiaobei, have you been entangled by these perverts again." They didn't do anything to you, don't worry, I'll help you get rid of them. Without waiting for Zhang Xiaobei to answer, he turned around and glared at Yin Hao and Gray. Yin Hao knew that it was bad as soon as he saw this posture, and he was misunderstood.

Zhang Xiaobei hurriedly grabbed Zhuo Zhuo and said, "You misunderstood, they are the ones who saved me today." This is Brother Ritian, this is Brother Yutian, they are both kind Inhuman companions. First time in Uriel today. Saying that, Zhang Xiaobei told Zhuo Zhuo and grandma what happened today, and after listening to it, grandma hurriedly stepped forward and took Yin Hao's hand to say thank you for a while, of course, Gray in order to prevent "electricity", or hide to the side and then verbally expressed that you are not polite. After that, grandma insisted that Yin Hao and the others stay for the night after eating. Yin Hao and Gray thought about it, this is indeed a good thing, people here are not familiar with the place, and it doesn't hurt to collect more information, at least it should be safe to live in Zhang Xiaobei's house today.

Seeing that the two quickly agreed, Zhang Xiaobei and her grandmother happily went back to the house to prepare the meal, but the girl named Zhuo Zhuo didn't look happy at all. He went into the house with a worried expression.

While they were still preparing dinner, Yin Hao and Gray went to the community commercial area below along the inner ring tree road and turned around a few times.

When it came to the meal, the two of them returned directly by virtue of their memories, and Zhang Xiaobei was already waiting for the two of them at the door at this time.

The very sumptuous dinner made the two who had been sleeping on the battlefield hungry all of a sudden, and the two of them devoured it, and Zhuo Zhuo next to him looked disgusted.

After dinner, everyone chatted at the dining table, Zhuo Zhuo returned to his house and closed the door, Zhang Xiaobei asked everyone not to mind, Zhuo Zhuo is such a character now, he doesn't like to communicate with people, before the catastrophe, Zhuo Zhuo was a very cheerful girl, and after the catastrophe, his parents were killed for various reasons, leaving her alone to live in this world, she and Zhuo Zhuo were small and played from childhood to adulthood, and then came to Uriel together, Zhuo Zhuo in order to repay Zhang Xiaobei and grandma who helped him, and applied for a place for them to live. So when you take the initiative to join the army, Zhuo Zhuo's ability is a support ability that can control plants to place traps or sense their surroundings through plants. It has a lot of use on the battlefield, and recently I heard that the main front in the Western Theater of Operations was pulled to the southwest, and this time there is an important mission to return.

After hearing this, Yin Hao smiled and said that he didn't mind, but he still felt a little unusual aura on Zhuo Zhuo's body. But he didn't care that much.

After that, they talked a lot together, and Yin Hao and the two learned a lot about the city, including the celebration of the second anniversary of the city's completion in three days, when the mayor will personally take the stage to give a speech. However, at this moment, Yin Hao didn't have any way to get close to Cole, let alone get the secret seal from him. But he knew he had to make the most of this opportunity. Otherwise, the next time I see Cole, I don't know when it will be.

Slowly in the evening, Zhang Xiaobei cleaned up a guest room for Yin Hao and the others. They just checked in. Gray and Yin Hao are studying the two anniversary celebrations. But they still couldn't find a breakthrough, after all, this place was too strange for them. The two of them discussed fruitlessly, so they went to sleep like this, and prepared to go to other places in the city of Uriel to-morrow to see if there was anything they could do to get started.

Late at night, a girl in the room took out a high-tech computer from under the bed in her room, a product of pre-disaster technology. Open the screen and directly intervene in a voice call interface. A processed voice came out of the computer.

"Now that you've met, it's up to you to create opportunities for them to get access to Cole. The mysterious man in the voice said.

"What should I do?" the girl asked.

"In the square of the celebration three days later, bombs were planted. For the rest, I'll ask someone else to do it. ”

"What! You want to blow up the mayor? I can't do that. The girl replied

"You're really too deep into the play, if you're not afraid of your true identity being exposed, you don't have to do it. The number of people who have replaced you is countless. "There was a threat on the other end of the voice.

"I'm sorry, I'll do as you tell me to do. When the girl heard the mysterious man say this, her face turned pale with fright.

"Hmph. The mystery man turned off the voice link.

The girl closed the computer, sighed, changed into outgoing clothes, opened the door, and walked outside.
