Chapter 65: The City of Truth (Part II)
"The total population of the entire City of Truth is as high as 10 million, but in fact, the number of real controllers is less than 10,000 in the three races combined."
"So that's only 1 in 1,000? So the rest are ordinary people? ”
"Well, let's just say that, if you are from the people in the City of Truth, it can be calculated that only a small part of the humans here are actually from the main star Earth, most of them are from various small worlds, and the other races are from the home planet where they live."
"I haven't asked yet, where are you going next when you come here?" I had been immersed in this spectacular scene that I had never seen before, and I listened to Gohan tell the story of the City of Truth, and for a while I forgot to ask the most important thing.
"Go to the Governor's Mansion." Ning Xin said without looking back, obviously still sulking about what happened just now.
"Why go there?" Although I continued to ask her why, considering her current mood and the fact that I had just witnessed the tragic situation of Gao Han, I asked Gao Han.
"I haven't told you yet, the eldest sister's father is the chief of the alliance, and her status is already very high, and the eldest sister is the daughter of the alliance, but for some reasons, she doesn't like to go back, and you'll know when the time comes."
"Let's go to the Governor's Mansion mainly to report back on your affairs, the Chief Governor has been worried about the Tisball world before, no matter what strength the controller sent in the past, in the end it will become no news, and he doesn't know his whereabouts at all, only the two who were sent out before briefly reported the situation, and the communication was cut off, and now because of your appearance, the high-energy reaction of the Tisball world has been eliminated, and now it is in a stable state, which can be regarded as a big event."
"Hey, I've never been like this before." Gao Han sighed, "The energy level of each world is different, and the energy of the world is also the only thing that will limit the ability of our controllers to use it, but it seems to have no effect on the non-combat type 'Li', but with a high energy like Tisball, the general combat type 'Li' can't be used at all." ”
"Chen Yuxin, the good friend of the eldest sister before, is also one of the controllers, and the ability is 'the principle of mind reading', you can know the thoughts of unsuspecting people, she is missing, the eldest sister originally thought she was dead, and she was sad for a long time about this matter, but she didn't expect to be saved by you."
"It's just a coincidence, if it weren't for the third attempt, I'm afraid I wouldn't be standing in front of you, and Chen Yuxin wouldn't have been rescued by me."
The governor's mansion is not too far, but our group also walked for a while, on the way Gao Han also apologized to Ning Xinyan, and was forgiven, of course, the price is painful, all our snack expenses on the road were forced to be reimbursed by Gao Han, I wanted to eat less to help him save money, but Ning Xinyan half-forced me to order a lot, so that I could hardly eat at lunch.
"Here it is." After Ning Xinyan finished speaking, he stopped, stopped and looked, a behemoth was placed in front of us. Looking at this house, I really don't know how to describe it, if Gao Han's residence can be considered luxurious, then it is a drop in the bucket compared to the governor's mansion in front of me.
The white walls are carved with patterns, and looking through the railing of the gate, you can see the rippling blue waves of the lake, the trees, the flowers, plants, artificial stones, fountains, and waterfalls, plus the white stone pavilions, tables and chairs, which are as beautiful as a fairyland. A small wooden bridge spans the lake and leads to the mansion, which is three stories high and stands like a hill in the courtyard. The whole building is completely white, and the carvings and styles on it are quite a bit of European architectural style.
"If only I had a house like this." Gao Han looked at the governor's mansion in front of him with envy, and then said to me, "How is it, it's spectacular." ”
"It's a beautiful European-style building, and the courtyard seems to be a reference to garden art, which is fascinating."
"My father liked this kind of house, and at first the mansion was built with high technology, which was more convenient for life, but my father insisted on building the mansion like this, and specially spent a lot of money to hire a master builder and a garden master of European-style architecture, and even with the help of the controller, it took three months to build the house." Ning Xinyan looked at the house in front of her, and felt a lot of emotion in her heart, she hadn't been back to this place for a long time, for her, this was home, it was the place where she grew up, but at the same time, it was the place she didn't want to come back to.
"Miss." The doorman noticed us, stepped forward and saw that it was Ning Xinyan, and hurriedly bowed, "The chief has been waiting for a long time, and the few behind you are ......"
"My own people, don't talk nonsense, open the door quickly."
"Yes."
With a squeak, the door opened, and we followed Ning Xinyan towards the mansion. From the outside, it looks huge, but when you go inside, you really feel how big the floor area of this mansion really is. There is a straight line from the gate to the mansion, and even if a house has its own courtyard, it is only two or three steps from the gate to the house, but after entering the courtyard, it took us five minutes to reach the front of the house.
The two maids bowed to Ning Xinyan, and then pulled the door to let us in. Not only the exterior of the house, but also the interior decoration is full of European architectural style, with many statues, playthings and even a small fountain in the center of the warm-colored hall.
Walking up the stairs to the second floor, we came to a stop in front of the room directly across from us. Ning Xinyan took a step forward and knocked lightly on the door three times.
"Come in." A hoarse-sounding voice came from inside the room. Pushing open the door, the first thing I saw was the desk in front of the window, in front of which sat a man, his short dark red hair was already a little white, his knife-like face looked meticulous, and a pair of wide glasses framed on the bridge of his nose looked even more serious. He is not tall, but he is very decent in a black suit.
Undoubtedly, the elder who sat straight in front of him was the chief, and what surprised me the most was his eyes, which were also dark red and extremely deep, and made people dare not look directly at his gaze, as if all his details would be exposed at the moment of eye contact.
"Father." Ning Xinyan knelt down on one knee and bowed his head and said.
"It seems that you haven't grown up, have you been slacking off on the main planet lately?"
"No, it's just that I'm busy with affairs, and I have a little less time left for condensation......" Before Ning Xin's words were finished, the chief slammed the table and scolded angrily, "Enough, I don't want to listen to excuses!" ”
"Yes." Ning Xinyan still maintained a kneeling posture on one knee, and said with her head down.
After that, without looking at Ning Xinyan, the chief took a document from the table, and said casually while reading: "Get up, this time you come to believe that the matter of Tisball has been dealt with, if my guess is right, the young man you brought should be the one who raided Tisbor." ”
"Yes, his name is Chen Mojian." Ning Xinyan stood up and motioned for me to move forward, looking at her puppet-like expression, I probably knew why Gao Han said that just now. Handing over Xue'er to Ning Xinyan, I took a step forward.
"You're Chen Moji?" The chief looked at me, and at this moment I felt completely seen through, and the feeling was very uncomfortable, and I subconsciously frowned. I didn't even notice that the air around my body seemed to twist a little as I felt it, but it was so small that I couldn't detect it.
"Huh?" The chief seemed a little surprised, his eyes froze, he looked at me carefully, and then beckoned, "Come here." ”
I nodded, and took two steps forward to the chief.
"Hold your hand out." As he intended, I stretched out my right hand, and he stretched out his right hand and shook it with mine. His hand was very powerful, and even though he had deliberately retracted it, it still hurt me a little, and I was secretly surprised to see that his figure did not look like a person with such strength.
After a long time, the chief's brow furrowed slightly, and he let go of the hand holding me, and saw that there seemed to be something incomprehensible in his expression.
He thought for a moment, then called an attendant next to him and whispered something to him, and then the attendant nodded and left. Turning his face, the chief said to Ning Xinyan: "The guest room on the third floor is still empty, let them stay there tonight, I will look for you at night, okay and retreat." After that, the chief didn't even speak, and continued to look at the documents in his hand, from the beginning to now, he didn't even look at Ning Xinyan seriously.
I retreated to Gao Han's side, and then I suddenly felt that there seemed to be some movement next to me, and I turned my head to see that Su Bing'er, who hadn't spoken much all the way, was coldly glaring at the chief chief, clenching his fists and about to walk forward.
Seeing this, Ning Xinyan pressed Su Bing'er's shoulder and shook her head gently.
"Then father, we'll retire first." Ning Xinyan said to the chief.
"Hmm." The chief still didn't look up, but just agreed. Ning Xinyan gave another salute before leading us to push the door and leave the chief's room, all the way through the courtyard and out of the mansion.
"Why are you holding me down?" Su Bing'er said, her voice was very cold, although it was usually similar, but this time it was obviously angry.
"Forget Bing'er, it's not a day, and even you can't threaten him." After saying that, Ning Xinyan stopped talking, and just walked silently in front.
I walked up to Gao Han and asked in a low voice, "What happened just now." ”
"Hey." Gao Han sighed and said, "The relationship between the chief and the eldest sister has always been like that, and I don't know much about the specifics, I followed the eldest sister to the governor's mansion several times, and every time the chief will ask the eldest sister about her strength, and no matter how the eldest sister answers, the chief will not have a word of praise, and it is still the same when such a big matter is solved this time." ”
"Sister Bing'er has the best relationship with the eldest sister, she should know a lot of details, looking at her posture just now, I'm really afraid that she will rush up to attack the chief, in that case, I'm afraid we won't be able to eat the chef's food again."
