Chapter 773: Hard-boiled eggs from another world
"Newburgh existed as a transit point, and later with the increase in the volume of transactions in the Devil's Shell Market, Newburgh also prospered and expanded. Fu Ze explained: "The original Newburgh was slightly larger than the bunkers in the fortified areas, and then gradually expanded to this shape. ”
Huo Chi looked at the huge gray egg-shaped city, and couldn't help but think of the famous hard-boiled egg building in the original world, Newburgh and that hard-boiled egg were really a little similar.
Hello, boiled eggs from another world, seeing you, it's really kind! A smile appeared on the corner of Huo Chi's mouth: "Why do you have to build it like this? Why isn't Newburgh square?"
"It is said that this shape is the least likely to be spotted by monsters. Fu Ze said: "The city has become bigger, but there is no defensive array like the Columne District, and Newburgh has suffered a lot at the beginning. Later, it was proposed to use this form to protect the city, but the mayor at the time agreed, and it took a lot of effort to build it, and the result was really good. ”
"Monsters don't attack cities with egg-shaped shapes?" Huo Chi felt a little unbelievable: "In this case, wouldn't it be possible to build other cities like this." ”
At the time, it was also suggested to learn from Newburgh's experience, but several cities spent money on egg-shaped facades that didn't work at all. Fu Ze said: "Maybe this only works in this place." ”
What the hell is this? It's useless to change places with the same shape? Huo Chi felt that things must not be so simple. However, the architects of these cities should have analyzed the reasons in their entirety, and since they have not figured out what is going on, he does not have to think about it.
As the caravan approached Newburgh, Huo Chi discovered that there were actually many skylights on the surface of the "boiled eggs" in the vast wilderness, which were supposed to be used to increase the natural light and ventilation of the city, right?
"There are a lot of skylights on the exterior walls. Huo Chi pointed to the top half of the boiled egg.
"It's going to be closed at night. Fu Ze said: "This side is close to the desert, and the wind and sand are too strong at night, if you don't close it, the city will be full of yellow sand the next day." ”
"Oh, I thought it was because I was afraid of monsters coming in. Huo Chi looked up at the walls of the boiled eggs, these gray facades were rounded in shape, there were almost no traces of connections, and the construction skills here were quite high.
"There's a reason for that, but because of the shape of the building, even if you encounter monsters here, they're small at most, and there aren't many of them. Fu Ze said: "It's a pity that this kind of architectural shape is useless, otherwise other cities don't have to suffer." ”
"What about the guy who proposed to make the city egg-shaped?" did he have any new suggestions?" Huo Chi was curious about the man.
"When the city was built, the man disappeared, and he couldn't find it. Xiao Jian interjected: "The best thing is that that person didn't leave any video data, and the White Eagle couldn't find him." ”
"People disappeared?" Huo Chi was slightly disappointed when he heard this, but this world was already strange and strange, and it was not unusual for such a thing to happen.
"yes, it's like it never existed. Xiao Jian suddenly slapped the steering wheel and said, "Oh, it's actually good to follow the caravan, I came in without checking!"
As soon as Xiao Jian said this, Huo Chi realized that when he entered the city gate just now, the convoy only stopped for a short time, and after the convoy advanced again, they followed the convoy into it, and those city defense troops really didn't check them.
Newburgh is a small city in terms of size, but it's covered in huge eggshells, and as soon as Horch enters the city, it feels like he's entering a huge cave, and the air here is different from the outside.
"It's really not good to get lighting here. Huo Chi poked his head out and looked up, the high city dome was pitch black, and the light coming in from those skylights was not enough to illuminate the entire city.
Still, even though the streets were very dark, the city amazed Horch.
It turns out that the boiled egg in the world is just a city building, but the boiled egg in this other world is a city. It is located in a desolate area, there is no village in front of the village, and there is no store in the back, and it must have been very difficult when it was first built.
"The days were better, and now that the sun is about to go down, the lighting is definitely insufficient. Qin Lang put the notebook in his pocket, and he didn't know what he had just recorded.
"Captain, I'll go fix the car first, it's still early. As soon as Xiao Jian entered the city, he immediately asked Fu Ze.
"Let's go camping with the convoy first. Fu Ze said: "After that, you go to repair the car, and the others will follow me to the expedition military headquarters." ”
The snow leopards were mixed in with the caravan, so today's accommodation would follow the caravan as well. After all, there are many merchants who go to the Devil's Shell Market from Newburgh, and just in case, the expedition team will pretend to be caravan members from tonight.
Yuan Bing 008 followed the caravan all the way and stopped not too far from the entrance of the boiled egg. Since Newburgh is a traditional transit point, there are a lot of hotels in this area, and the place where they stop now should be the area where the hotels gather.
"Park the car over here, this is the area of Qingzhu. Someone greeted the snow leopard team, Xiao Jian quickly drove Yuanbing 008 to the side of the truck, and after parking the car, everyone got out of the car.
"Come in with us and be silent. Paid walked up to the snow leopards and said, "Don't forget to change into civilian clothes when you go in." ”
Everyone mixed in with the crowd of the caravan and walked straight into the hotel, which was more than 20 stories high.
Entering the lobby, the paid person received the key card directly, and after the room was allocated, the caravan members went upstairs to rest, and the paid person personally took the snow leopard team to their room.
"Is the room okay? If you're not satisfied, I can change it for you." Paid to open the room and asked warmly.
"It's much better than the room in the camp, your accommodation conditions are quite good, how much does this place cost for a night?" Fu Ze put down his backpack and nodded with satisfaction.
After paying to close the door of the room, he replied: "This is the property of the Magic Club, we have signed a caravan to live with a discount, and it will not cost much for one night." The downside is that we don't provide free food, so we have to order food if we want to eat, but we usually eat our own dry food, or simply go out to eat. ”
"Let's also eat our own dry food. Huo Chi patted his backpack, there were still a lot of egg dumplings he made at noon, and they could be eaten after heating them up a little.
"Then I'll go out first, you guys have a good rest, and we'll gather downstairs at six o'clock tomorrow morning and set off." Paid glanced at Huo Chi's backpack greedily, and then reconfirmed with the Snow Leopard Team the precautions in the Demon Shell Market in the future, and after negotiating, the panda man left.
"Let's go to errands first, and then have dinner when we come back. Fu Ze washed his face and went out with everyone.
Xiao Jian drove the round ice 008 and put everyone behind the expedition military headquarters, and took Huo Chi's round ice VIP card to repair the car, while the others entered the expedition military headquarters in Newburgh.
"Captain, can we take on this task?" Su Qingqing stood next to the task board and waited, accidentally glancing at it, but found a high-value task.
