Chapter 231: The Eve of the Storm

The Endless City towers in the corner of the universe, with the silence of deep space behind it.

The neon lights of the lower city are brilliant, and red, yellow, blue, and purple lights overflow everywhere, enveloping the entire lower city, covering up the darkness and filth of the ground floor.

Liuzi Lane in Xiacheng District, a half-old office building.

In the shadows, a thin man with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks stepped on the shadow, a cat waist squeezed out of the room, a dodge, like a fish swimming into the sea, a few tossing and then disappeared.

In the room, the lights were dim, and three people could be seen standing in the shadows.

The faces of the three of them could not be seen clearly, but their clothes were shabby, and their hair was very long, and the roots were knotted, as if they had been wandering the streets for a long time.

There was no one in the room talking, and it was eerily quiet.

After a long time, someone finally stood up and sighed: "Endless City, I'm afraid it's going to be chaotic." ”

As soon as these words came out, there were several long sighs one after another.

Several figures completely disappeared into the darkness, and the figures disappeared in a crowd.

At this time, sit in the courtyard of the house of all things.

Jack had already followed Mr. Harper to talk about things, Ashley and Meow King were happily enjoying the small biscuits and borscht prepared by Miss Windsor, and Lian Yue ignored El, who was sitting a little cramped, her brows were slightly furrowed, and she always felt that she had not figured out some things.

Her perception has always been keen, and along the way, she has always felt that someone is watching them.

Thinking of the thin shadow that she had glimpsed at the entrance before, she had a hunch, this time, I'm afraid things are very complicated!

"Sister!" Seeing that she was not in high spirits, King Meow stood on tiptoe and picked up a piece of borscht and stuffed it into her mouth.

Her mouth was stuffed with sweet and delicious borscht meat, and her thoughts were suddenly caught, and she shook her head, everything is still unknown, and it is useless to think so much.

There's very little they can do, and that's just a matter of taking precautions.

Thinking of this, Lian Yue burst into a smile and chewed the borscht meat in her mouth vigorously.

I have to say, Miss Windsor's collection of recipes is really a must! This borscht meat is really soft and delicious, the aroma goes straight to the heart, and the satisfaction is really good in one bite!

Seeing her smile, King Meow was relieved, and grabbed another piece and handed it to El on the side, obviously El was the first time someone handed something to her, and she was a little overwhelmed for a while.

Ashley doesn't care about these, her foodie attributes are fully displayed, her mouth is stuffed with borscht, and she is still holding a small biscuit in her hand, for fear that King Meow will rob her.

The Endless City's biosphere technology is very good, creating a stable ecosystem, sunrise and sunset, wind and rain, clouds and snow, everything that is available in nature, there is everything here.

People don't feel like they're living in an upside-down world, and the world here is business as usual.

At this time, the breeze blew across her face, bringing a hint of coolness. The autumn wind slowly spirals into the air with the fallen leaves.

The autumn leaves swirled and swirled, falling on the eaves, down the slope, and down Jack's shoulders.

His expression was relaxed, and it was clear that this was a place for him to feel relaxed and comfortable.

Mr. Hubble sat on a low wooden stool in front of him, sipping his cup of tea: "You shouldn't have come back." ”

Jack didn't hear it, snatched the tea set in front of him, poured himself a cup, and raised his eyebrows: "It's time to finish, isn't it?"

The two of them seem to be dumb and don't say it thoroughly.

"There's been a lot of movement in Everfree lately, and a lot of things aren't as peaceful as they seem on the surface." When Mr. Hubble saw him take a sip, he immediately cried and spit out again, and couldn't help but feel funny, "You should come back later, now that all forces are gathered, my plan is not so easy." ”

Jack swallowed the tea soup from his mouth, and took two more mouthfuls of the fruit on the side, and waited until his mouth was occupied by the sweet fruity aroma, and then narrowed his eyes in satisfaction.

"It doesn't matter, it's good to fish in muddy waters!" Jack shrugged his shoulders and stepped on the low stool, shaking his body very sly.

Mr. Hubble was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said worriedly: "Then you shouldn't bring so many unrelated people back." ”

Obviously, he was a little unimpressed by Mr. Hubble's disapproval: "You see them too simply, as for the one..."

As he spoke, he thought of Mu Ran's Er, and said thoughtfully: "Maybe it's very useful at a critical time." ”

Mr. Hubble naturally knew who he was talking about, and after thinking about it, he understood his intentions, and although he still disagreed, he was not as resolute as before.

Lian Yue didn't know what kind of conversation the two had in the backyard, and how the situation in the entire Endless City would change because of their return, but at this time, she rarely enjoyed her leisure, and she tasted delicious food with Ashley and them, admiring the fallen leaves, so uncomfortable.

The artificial moon was hanging high in the night sky at this time, surrounded by mist, adding a hint of coolness to the night.

And the other world under your feet is a different scene.

The red sun hangs high, and the bustling streets are full of people, which is not far behind the populous administrative planets of the Federation.

Shuttles, magnetic cars, mechas, the sky, the underground, and into the urban jungle.

......

7 Star City, business district area.

A second-hand mobile phone armor, which is especially incompatible with the prosperous scene, swaggered in the commercial building.

The people around were all sideways, but the owner of the mecha was suddenly unaware, swaggering in front, and a few bodyguard-like big men followed behind.

However, if you look closely, you will see that their faces are a little dark, as if someone owes them money.

"Hey, hey! Your physics engine is good, how do you sell it? ”

In the second-hand phone distribution store, the gray owner of the second-hand mobile phone armor turned on the megaphone and asked the shopkeeper with a smile.

The shopkeeper obviously knew him, and there was a slight teasing tone in his tone: "Master Meg, I have a good thing!" Just picked up from Li Jiasi's cargo ship! It's not like the other stuff in my store, it's brand new! ”

The shopkeeper was a one-eyed man in his forties, and his face should have been full of dejection, but at this time it was full of ridicule and ridicule.

What kind of brand new engine is he, it's not just to send those boys to pick up the rags from the garbage heap, but to bully Meg for not knowing the goods.

This little young master, his identity is not ordinary, but in this endless city, no matter how noble his identity is? It's not like you're letting them play tricks, is it? To say that you are not afraid of the forces behind him? He is not afraid, but after so many years, what is this young master's life like in the Endless City, can't anyone with a heart still see it?

As long as you can get by on the face, what does it matter if you treat him as a fool and coax a fool to deceive? Who will come out for him? I'm afraid he can't figure it out himself!

"Really? Exotic? Do you think you can put it on my Thor? I've been feeling a little bit uncomfortable lately that Thor is activated. The young man's voice inside the gray mecha was still very excited, as if he really believed it.

"That's not it! Master Meg, if you want it sincerely, I'll find someone to assemble it for you right away!" ”

"Oops! You old man's engine should have been replaced a long time ago! The shopkeeper became more and more attentive the more he talked, and his one-eyed face suddenly bloomed, how ugly and ugly it was.

The young man in the mecha seemed to be moved: "Don't lie to me!" I know that! ”

The boy's pretended sophisticated voice made the one-eyed shopkeeper want to laugh, but for the sake of the money at his fingertips, he held back.

"Master Meg, you are so knowledgeable, how dare I lie to you?"

"That's okay, that's fine, put it on for me! I'm going to be ready to make a name for myself in the Star City War! The boy's tone was very innocent, and he said something unrealistic, but everyone present was normal.

When the one-eyed shopkeeper got the answer, he smiled from ear to ear, and immediately flattered him, and hurriedly beckoned the guy to help clean up and modify: "Promise 200,000 star coins!" ”

Meg came out of the mech, gently stroked her hand on the mecha parts in the store, and when she saw him say this, she paid the star coins very happily without blinking her eyes.

The few big men behind him were expressionless from beginning to end, like robots, and they didn't seem to think that there was anything wrong with this move, and it seemed that as long as the person in front of him was here, alive, it was enough.

However, you must know that in the Federation, such a physical engine has long been the product of a generation of obsolescence.

In the second-hand market of the Federation, I am afraid that except for the poor ghosts who really have no money to buy it, others will not look at such an obsolete thing, let alone buy it at a sky-high price of 200,000 star coins. These 200,000 star coins, take it to buy the latest generation of biological engines, isn't it fragrant?

Meg "didn't know" that she had become a wrongdoer, and he was still basking in the joy of having a new engine.

Several bodyguards occupied a corner of the second-hand mobile phone repair shop, controlling their vision and observing the movements around them.

"Can I go in and have a look? My darling, I'm going to know how he fixed it for me. After a moment of silence, the young man raised his head and said very solemnly.

The one-eyed shopkeeper subconsciously swept over the few big men behind him, and seeing that they didn't react too specially, he said with a shy smile: "Okay! How not! ”

As he spoke, he led him inside, and several big men subconsciously wanted to follow, but the one-eyed shopkeeper was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry!" I'm too small in the back, can you wait outside? ”

As he spoke, he raised his eyes to look at the other party, and saw a big man who glanced at him, and suddenly shuddered, and was busy explaining: "I mean, the place is small, and it is inconvenient for several people to go in, yes, you can send a representative to follow the young master, I know you are not at ease, this, I am not at ease..."

In a whisper, the one-eyed shopkeeper didn't know what he was saying next, and when he reacted, he stopped talking and invited Meg to go inside.

Meg obediently walked inside, and sure enough, a big man came up behind her, and the rest were waiting outside.

As the shopkeeper walked through the narrow passage inside, the road behind suddenly opened up, it was a space of nearly 400 square meters, the space was very large, but it was almost full of all kinds of hanging mechas, shuttles and various parts.

Meg saw his mecha at a glance, it was a second-hand mobile mecha that he had put together from various broken parts a month ago, the whole was gray-white, and many joints were exposed outside, making the fuselage a little dirty. However, everyone knows that this is the trace of time on the parts of the mecha itself.

The person in charge of repairing his mech is an old acquaintance - Bruce.

Bruce is a veteran mechanic in this machine repair shop, and it is rumored that he not only repairs mechs well, but also has a good set of mecha modifications, and many people in Star City are looking for him to modify mechas.

Meg leaned in: "Bruce, you need to fix it!" I'm still waiting for the Star City battle! ”

The boy's bouncing voice made Bruce's hand pause, and he looked at him impatiently: "Go aside!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the one-eyed shopkeeper's face was a little unsightly, he wanted to make a round, but he saw the big man in front of him as if he didn't see it, and he was immediately relieved, and he didn't plan to step forward.

Meg leaned over again as if she hadn't heard, in exchange for the other party's cold face.

Bruce ignored him with his tools and walked to the other side, and Meg seemed to be more and more frustrated, and did not give up, and continued to follow.

It just so happened that the two subconsciously looked at each other carefully.

Bruce still spoke with disgust, like telling Meg to stay away from him and not disturb his work.

The two went back and forth, you dislike me, I am close to you, and just when the others relaxed their vigilance, the two pulled to the back of the mecha, which happened to be in the blind spot of the shopkeeper and bodyguard.

It didn't take long: "Kid, go away!" Otherwise, don't think I'll change the engine for you! ”

"Humph!" Meg, too, seemed a little angry, ran out, and strode out.

"Master Meg?" The one-eyed shopkeeper looked at him and then at Bruce behind him.

"I'll pick it up later! If you don't let me see it, I won't watch it! With that, he rushed out in a rage.

Halfway down the corridor, he suddenly stopped again, and the big man behind him almost bumped into him.

The big man frowned, as if he was about to reprimand him, but he heard Meg suddenly think: "Let's go, let's go to the Melody Palace!" Someone invited Master Ben to dinner! ”

Meg's mood seemed to come and go quickly, and when she learned that someone had invited her to dinner, she suddenly turned cloudy and sunny again.

As for the person who invited the treat, it was none other than Lianyue.

......

Meile Palace, Lian Yue took King Meow and ordered the meal.

This time it was completely ordered according to the menu in the star network last time, and the last dish, not only Meg, but she also liked it, and she always wanted to try it in reality.

She pinched the food she ordered, and when Meg got here, the dishes were ready.

Sure enough, as she expected, Meg came quickly, apparently around here.

"Yura! You're back! Meg's voice of surprise came from the door.

However, this time was different from the gathering of the Star Network, and he was followed by several big men.

Fortunately, the big men still have some images of her and King Meow, and they don't make any other moves when they see them, they just stand in the room like a stump and don't speak.

Lian Yue and King Meow looked at each other, obviously not expecting such a picture.

But after thinking about it, it is not difficult to understand, but whispered to King Meow, and the two of them did not exist anymore.

It's just that there are too many people here, and the gift she prepared for Meg is not easy to take out in person
