Chapter 563: Fog City (3)
Lisa and Alex walked down the college street, stopping and stopping along the way. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
On the Third Street of Foggy City, they met a ghetto of gnomes and dwarves. The houses here are all caves embedded in the rock body, and the structure inside is not visible from the outside, but the number of people on the street alone indicates that the cave must be large. It's just that they couldn't figure out how so many people could live in such a dark and damp cave that would never see the sun, until Lisa faintly heard a strange slapping sound coming from outside the cliff.
Lisa crossed the driveway, crossed the green promenade, jumped over the creek on the edge of the cliff, and looked down the cliff, and then it became clear to her mind that the cave on the other side of the street did not lead to the depths of the rock, but to the bottom of the rock, through a complex staircase step, connecting the rooms near the cliff at her feet.
Because under the cliff are all dense and innumerable round holes, and outside each hole there is a long pole hanging from it, on which is hung with clothes to dry. The sound she had just heard was someone slapping a quilt to dry at the entrance of a hole.
"Kind of interesting," she nodded, "it seems that this place is more complicated than I thought. ”
At this time, Alex also endured the fear of height, glanced down, and then immediately retreated, I don't know if it was because of the instinctive nervousness of the cliff, or because he was shocked by the scene he saw, so that his voice trembled uncontrollably, "There are at least a few thousand windows below, could it be that there are tens of thousands of people living here alone?"
"And that's not all," Lisa said, pointing to the cliff to the west, "look there. ”
Alex mustered up his courage and probed again, only to see that in the direction of Lisa's finger, under the streets of Foggy City, there were such dense window openings under almost every one. The combination of these streets and window openings stretches all the way to the waterfall a few kilometers away, and Alex speculates that the same may be the same on the other side of the falls.
"That is...... Hundreds of thousands of people live in this city?" Alex was amazed. You must know that even the city of falling cherry blossoms, known as the miracle cliff, has a total population of just over 300,000. But the city of falling cherry blossoms is a giant city that spreads more than 100 kilometers, shouldering more than half of the trade and transportation between the Kaios Continent and the Knight Federation, which is only more than 20 kilometers at most.
Lisa was about to speak, but she heard the sound of a quarrel coming from the street in the distance. She gestured at Alex, and the two of them walked in the direction from which the voice came.
Not long after, the two arrived at the scene of the incident, and easily passed the crowd of giggling onlookers (mostly dwarfs and a few dwarves), and saw a dwarf and a dwarf pointing fingers at each other in front of a clockwork truck.
"I'll just say that the clockwork is already very loose, and you said that you can open the charging station, and now I'll see what you do. The dwarf pointed his finger at the dwarf, almost poking it in the nose.
"How can I be blamed for this? I'll tell you, it's okay to pack twenty bags of wheat, but you want to pack forty bags, and you let everyone see what the back of the car is already piled up!"
"This, how can you blame me?! Obviously, you don't follow the rules, hmph, I will definitely tell the team leader the truth. "The dwarves have made a killer move.
When the quarrel between the two was about to escalate into a move, someone in the crowd of onlookers loudly persuaded him: "Isn't it just that the clockwork is loose, it would be good if everyone helped you push it." ”
"Yes, I'll push you around, there's a clockwork station on Fifth Street, and it's only a little way from here. ”
With that, the group pulled the pair apart, and the dwarf driver who had made the mistake slipped into the cockpit in disgrace, and the dwarven stevedores mixed in with the crowd and pushed the wagon.
The main force of the cart was four or five dwarves, and they were huddled behind the wagon, each hand on the underside of the wagon. The gnomes also scrambled into their cracks, offering some dispensable help.
Some dwarves couldn't squeeze in, so they pushed the butts of those dwarves, and the latter hit them, so they had to retreat to the side with a red face.
The whole two heavy goods vehicles weigh more than three tons, and with the full load of wheat, they always weigh seven or eight tons. Watching this scene from afar, Alex thought to himself, with these dwarves alone, I am afraid that he will not be able to push it no matter what.
When the dwarves glowed with golden fighting energy, Alex realized that he had expected it wrong.
Alex himself is also a knight, and it can be seen at a glance that these dwarves' fighting spirit attainments are at least above level four, and wherever they are placed in Middle-earth, they are the strongest of the strong, and it should be no problem to promote these goods.
Sure enough, amid the cheers of the onlookers gnomes, the goods slowly moved.
Seeing this scene, Alex had another layer of shock: five dwarven warriors above level 4 could push the wagon up, and before that, it was possible to do this with only four clockwork batteries. In other words, a clockwork battery can actually withstand the power of a fourth-level knight.
At that moment, a low laugh rang out behind him. Alex turned his head to see an identical heavy truck speeding towards him, and a dwarf was standing on top of the sacks in the back of the car, laughing at the crowd pushing the cart.
"Brcknon, broke down again?" the dwarf driver who was driving stuck out his head and shouted laughing, "This month's bonus is going to be ruined, right?"
Only then did the dwarven stevedores who were following the car notice Alex and Lisa on the side of the driveway, and waved with a smile, "We met again so soon, do you need to go down with our car?"
Alex and Lisa couldn't tell the dwarf's appearance, and when they greeted him, they realized that this person was the dwarf they had just met in front of the elevator on First Street, and they couldn't help but be a little surprised—it had only been more than twenty minutes since they separated, and the car had not only gone back and forth from the Misty Town Grain Exchange, but also loaded the entire cart of grain.
"No, let's just walk slowly!" Alex replied loudly.
"Alright, let's go first!" the dwarf waved goodbye, and the van continued to spun along, stopping in front of the elevator shaft at the end of the street in the distance.
And at this time, the pair of brothers and sisters who completely loosened the clockwork because of mistakes still moved forward slowly with the help of the masses.
Alex had to revise his judgment just now, according to this difference in speed, a heavy clockwork battery was much more powerful than a fourth-level knight.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but have a strong interest in the northbound city under his feet, and he wanted to see how these magical clockwork batteries were produced immediately.
