Chapter 20: Claim the Quest
After receiving the video text message from Hestia, Tianxuan felt a hint of joy that he could not return to the ground for the time being. For him, who has experienced some supernatural phenomena on the surface, the underground world is far more interesting than ordinary life, and the spirit of adventure has been deeply rooted in his bone marrow.
At this time, Tianxuan was already immersed in the future he had weaved, not a journey home, but an adventure underground.
"Tianxuan, do you want to go home!" Nicolas tapped Tianxuan's shoulder with her fingers from the side.
Being slapped by Nicos, Tianxuan woke up from deep thought, and then followed the sound to look sideways.
I saw Nicolas tilting her head slightly, her eyelids drooping slightly, her eyes a little shiny, pursing her lips, and the corners of her mouth slightly curved upwards to look at herself, showing tender concern.
Tianxuan's eyes widened when he saw this, and then it seemed like a warm flow spread throughout his body, he looked at Nicos and swallowed, and said with some embarrassment: "It's a little, but it doesn't matter." Thank you for your concern, I'm fine! After speaking, Tianxuan stretched out his hand and posed a 3Q POSS.
In this atmosphere, Tianxuan felt that it was better not to tell the truth, and it was very disappointing for a person who cared about you to speak the truth at this time, especially in front of such a considerate girl, it was too rude.
"Hey, let's pretend for a while!" Tianxuan thought so in his heart.
Under Nicos's excessive care and comfort, Tianxuan pretended for a while, and finally ended the torment when Hestia came.
"Hestia, you're here!" Tianxuan saw Hestia and quickly diverted the topic.
"Well, it's been a long time since the meeting, are you having fun?" Hestia asked with a half-squinted smile in her eyes.
"Uh, uh, I had a good time, and my brain is open!" Tianxuan replied to Hestia with a smile as he drew a circle on his head with his fingers.
After greeting each other, Hestia called out to Nicos, handed her an oversized chip, and instructed, "Nicos, I have some of the latest alchemy here, you can bring it to the Archon of Power City, and assist the alchemists there in testing." ”
"Okay, wrap it up on me!" Nicols squinted her eyes and grinned as she took the chip and put it in her clothes. For her, it is a great honor to help her idols.
"What kind of place is Power City?" Tianxuan asked as he bit the crooked joint of his index finger.
"That's our fuel plant, the heavy water production base." Nicolas turned around and said with Tianxuan's mouth wide open, revealing a pair of snow-white teeth that were very good-looking.
"Oh! That's it! Tianxuan nodded and said.
"Tianxuan, you can't go back anyway now, what's the plan next!" Hestia said with a bun in her hair.
"Huh! Let's get around! There is no goal! Tianxuan held his chin in his hand, lowered his head and shook his head to think, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Hey! Then I'll go to Power City, just in time for the mission! ”
"Great, it's so much better to have a companion, otherwise you're going to be bored to death on the road alone!" Nikos said happily with her hands folded.
Hestia looked at Nicos lightly, turned his head and said to Tianxuan, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly: "That's fine, you can get in touch with our society more when you go around, otherwise I can't answer questions all the time!" ”
After hearing this, Tianxuan lowered his head embarrassedly and scratched the back of his head with his hand: "I'm sorry for your trouble, Hestia!" ”
"Huh! Where? Hestia's cheeks twitched, and then she laughed out loud. It's not that what Tianxuan said is funny, but Hestia feels a little funny when he looks at Tianxuan's words, to be exact, it's funny.
After that, Tengen and Nicols drove a Wind Protector from the Foundry into Ring 20 and followed the Radial Path into Ring 20, then followed the ring road of Ring 20 and exited Brentre through an exit and entered the airflow track to Power City.
After coming out of the exit of the new district, Tianxuan looked at Brentle, who was constantly moving away, from the Wind Resistant, and said with emotion: "This is really an amazing city! ”
"Huh? Beginning to get crushed with us? Nicolas leaned slightly and smiled with her round eyes.
"Uh, huh! Somewhat! Tianxuan said with a light sigh. With that, he continued to stare at Brentle, who was fading away. Nicos also looked at Tianxuan quietly and did not speak.
After a long time, Tianxuan asked, "Nicos, after we came out of the foundry, I found that only the two entrances and exits of the new area seem to have no water flow, what is this design for?" ”
Nicolas was fiddling with her hair and doing a facial massage.
After hearing Tianxuan's question, he retracted slightly, turned his back to Tianxuan and replied: "Because the new area is a heavy industrial area, a lot of toxic and harmful waste solids and gases have to be discharged from Brentre. If there is a water source, it will definitely be polluted, which will affect the water supply system of the whole city. Another thing you may not know is that there is a drainage pipe that extends far from the new district to the outside, and there is a place dedicated to this waste......"
Through Nicols's introduction, Tianxuan has a deeper understanding of the design of Mayan cities, that is, to carry out sustainable development as much as possible under the premise of protecting the environment. In fact, it is not difficult to do, it is necessary to have a vision, and you have to plan before you build.
The Wind Protector continued to walk towards Power City, while Tianxuan was quietly thinking. The harmony didn't last long, when Nicos stopped the Wind Breaker.
"What's going on?" Tianxuan came back from his thoughts, raised his head and asked.
"There's a glitch ahead!" Nicolas said with a frown between her eyes.
It turned out that there was a ground cavity in the airflow track ahead, so Nicolas had to be forced to stop. However, coincidentally, there are four burly men with a height of 1.75-1.80 meters in front of them, as if they were repairing the tracks.
Nicolas and Tengen descended from the Wind Protector and stepped forward to inquire about the situation.
"A leak in the supplies that may have been delivered led to an explosion, which destroyed this section of the track, and we are rushing to repair it!" One of the fat-faced strong men said. After speaking, the strong man continued to bow his head and carry out emergency repairs.
Seeing their efforts to repair it, he couldn't help himself, so Tianxuan simply fell asleep on the seat of the Wind Resistant. After some time, he was shaken awake by Nicos. At this point, the track has been repaired.
The fat-faced strong man from earlier estimated that he was the leader, and he walked over to Nicos and Tianxuan and said, "We are citizens of Power City, can you give us a ride there?" ”
Seeing that the strong man was serious, his eyes were straight, and he was very sincere, Nicos promised to give them a ride, but did not tell them that the destination he was going to was also Power City.
On the way, the four Mayans have been silent, and occasionally accosting each other is a few cold echoes, their upper eyelids drooping, their eyes are a little loose, and their facial expressions are relatively stiff. This made the originally lively atmosphere between Tianxuan and Nicols very serious.
After the Wind Resistor drove the six people for several hours, Tianxuan really felt too depressed, and looked at the four strong men curiously. Looking at it, Tianxuan always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, on the contrary, Nicos was still normal.
Tianxuan thought to himself that he must have been overly worried, it is normal for an outsider to be a little wary of an unfamiliar environment, and he must have thought too much.
However, he suddenly noticed that these four strong men were a little different from the Mayans he had seen before, that is, their eyes, which glowed with blue orange. So he raised his hand curiously and asked, "Big brothers, I think you are really special, your ......"
Saying this, Tianxuan suddenly got stuck, and the reason was that Nicos suddenly stuffed a large piece of pastry into his mouth, and it was stuffed all the way up to his throat.
Tianxuan frowned, quickly grabbed the pastry in his mouth with his hand, and then took a big gasp in his throat, and the feeling of spitting out "forehead" came for a while, and finally eased up. Then, with wide eyes, he looked at Nicos.
At this time, Nicos had a serious expression, and his eyes were a little sharp, like the feeling of penetrating people, which startled Tianxuan. But after a few seconds, Nicolas puffed out her cheeks again, showing her dimples, and laughed. This woman's face changes faster than a book.
"Is it delicious?" Nicolas smirked.
"Huh! Delicious, delicious. Okay, it almost killed me! Tianxuan saw that Nicos laughed again, and immediately breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Don't you think it's fun, it's interesting?" Nicolas continued to grin wickedly with a hint of slyness at the corners of her mouth, but her eyes flickered a little, as if she were about to hint at something.
Tianxuan seemed to sense something, sat down in his seat again, and looked coldly ahead. Nicolas breathed a sigh of relief and continued to sit down in her seat.
Tianxuan observed Nicos's reaction, thinking that he would understand what she meant, just sit down honestly, and sure enough, the four strong men had some circumstances, and his hunch was right.
Indeed, there was a problem with those four strong men, a big problem, and Tianxuan soon found out.
