Chapter 55: Alien City
Yan Qingcheng watched silently as the passenger spacecraft disappeared from sight.
From now on, he returned to solo action.
"Since we are about to go to a densely populated commercial area, it will be much easier to move," he said, judging the situation, "Judging from the basic information of the contact object, it should be a person with a face in the upstream society, and it will not be too troublesome to inquire about the location." ”
Speaking of which, his novice task is only set up in hiding his identity to go out, and under normal circumstances, the handover of secret items should provide a detailed joint address, and notify the other party in advance, set a time, it is obvious that this task is tailored for a fledgling rookie like Yan Qingcheng.
And it was deliberately set in Liang Xing, a place where the joint government is not strictly supervised, for the sake of his safety.
Yan Qingcheng shook his head and left the suburban platform.
There are several small aircraft parked at the exit of the platform, and the passenger seats in the back row have been modified a little, and the position is much larger; This overground vehicle, which is used to transport passengers to the business district, is a common occurrence in the neighborhood, where bored drivers are huddled around a game of poker a few metres away.
Seeing Yan Qingcheng coming over, one of them stepped forward with a smile on his face and led Yan Qingcheng to the aircraft.
Yan Qingcheng handed over a hundred-yuan bill, "Find me a hotel near the center of the business district." ”
"Okay." The driver took the money happily and started the aircraft.
Yan Qingcheng, who was in the back row, looked at the aircraft that made a strange noise under him, a little worried about safety, and subconsciously touched his back.
His wings were bound there in his straitjacket.
"Is it your first time coming to Liangxing North District?" The driver is very talkative and takes the initiative to talk to Yan Qingcheng.
"Well," Yan Qingcheng said with an absent-minded expression, "come and find a few friends." ”
"Hey, this place is not too big, I've been here for more than ten years, I can find any place you want to go......"
As he spoke, the driver's voice lowered, and he found that Yan Qingcheng had a straight face, and he didn't mean to talk.
He could only smile wryly and continue to pilot the aircraft.
Yan Qingcheng didn't mean to give him a look, but he wanted to carefully observe the scene along the way, this was the first time he had entered a city on another planet, so he was naturally very curious.
The title of "Steel City" is indeed well deserved, and the whole city is filled with a heavy atmosphere, with silver and white as the main color, and the architectural style is simple and rough, with sharp edges and corners; Yan Qingcheng looked down and was surprised to find that even the floor had been replaced with a steel floor.
"Everyone who comes to Liangxing for the first time will be shocked by its structure," the driver master glimpsed Yan Qingcheng's movements, and introduced very smugly, "Originally, the ground in this area was all hard quartzite, which was very unsuitable as a base for the city, but what is Liangxing?" It is a famous steel capital, the most important thing is steel, so the pioneers have made a great attempt, they use steel as the cornerstone and skeleton, and build a magnificent city in this area, which is a unique cultural scenery in the whole galaxy, even the capital Jixing can not be compared. ”
If Liang Xing's first stop was here, Yan Qingcheng would definitely praise him, but he had just seen the darkness covered by prosperity yesterday, and his mood was a little complicated, so he just nodded lightly in response.
Half an hour later, the driver took Yan Qingcheng to the door of the hotel that met the requirements.
The hotel is surrounded by high-rise buildings, and there is a lot of traffic, so Yan Qingcheng feels that he has come to the right place.
He walked into the hotel, opened a single room, and stayed directly.
He needed a place to stay and carry out his search.
After entering the room, he rolled up his sleeves seemingly carelessly, but in fact, he secretly opened the lieutenant with him and used the miniature radar to fully scan the room.
While it's hard to imagine such a large hotel peeping into the privacy of its guests, it's always safe to be on the safe side.
The accompanying lieutenant glowed green, and the room was "clean".
Yan Qingcheng threw his travel bag aside, closed the curtains, took off his windbreaker and shirt, and walked into the bathroom.
He knocked on the bathroom wall, and almost no vibrations were heard, indicating that the sandwich steel plate used for casting the wall was of good quality and excellent sound insulation.
He relieved himself, unfastened the bayonet on his chest, and took off his tights.
With a wingspan of three meters, his wings slowly opened, and he felt his whole body relax.
Even though the joints connecting the wing bones and spine are not locked and can be flipped at a full angle, it is still uncomfortable to be tightly bound.
Yan Qingcheng walked to the mirror and closed the holographic projection necklace, revealing his original appearance.
After looking at it for a long time, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"Everything went very smoothly, and I could do everything with a good face...... Ahem, I mean good luck, good luck, it's a good sign. ”
He suddenly stretched out his right hand and touched his left arm, drew his short stick and flicked it in the air, the two-meter-long portable war scythe hummed, showing its true face in the air, and at the same time, his left hand wiped on his waist, and took out a cylindrical device and fixed it under the sickle; Then he swung the double scythe of the Grim Reaper's starting hand, and the golden blade of light popped out, creating a perfect circle in the air, and the sound of the blade cutting through the air echoed through the bathroom.
Yan Qingcheng only took three seconds to complete the deployment of the Lightblade Battle Scythe and enter the combat state.
"It's good, the hand is not raw."
He nodded in satisfaction and took the components back one by one.
"Grandma Mo, why hasn't Qingcheng come back yet?"
In front of the flower flat of the Yanxing branch base, Peony held Mo Yun's hand and kept coquettish.
She knew that Yan Qingcheng had been sent on a novice mission, but she had only received a notification moments before his departure, so she didn't have time to say goodbye.
Peony thought that Yan Qingcheng would just go out to "play" for a day or two and come back, but he didn't expect that three days had passed and there was still no one.
The tasks of the branch were all assigned by Minister Song Beichen and Vice Minister Mo Yun, Song Beichen was too serious, and Peony didn't dare to disturb him at will, so he entangled Mo Yun, who came out to see the flowers, and wanted to inquire about some information.
"What's the hurry, little peony," Mo Yun pinched Peony's face and said unhurriedly, "It's only been a few days, and you're impatient?" ”
"But my novice task was completed in only a day and a half," Peony pursed her lips, "Qingcheng has been out for so long, did you arrange a very dangerous task for him?" ”
Mo Yun smiled, "How is that possible?" Even if Beichen agrees, I won't support him. ”
"Then why hasn't he come back yet?"
"It's just a long way off."
"Nothing will happen on the way, will it?"
"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Mo Yun glanced towards the tarmac and made a guarantee.
