Chapter 177: Anomaly
"Uh. ”
Raising his head slightly, looking at the huge building connected to the high-altitude soil layer in the distance, Emia was speechless for a while.
After several human gatherings and the killing of several demonic beasts and void creatures, the two of them finally encountered the first demon city located in the direction pointed by the pointer.
This was the first time Emia had seen the building, but it wasn't long before he knew it existed. When chatting with John, John mentioned it. Its existence is also recorded in more than a dozen books.
This is a huge structure called the Tower of Babel, which runs through the earth layer of the Demon Realm and allows the surface world of the Demon Realm to pass smoothly with the underground world.
Emia bent down and tried to put down Ni Miao who was holding him in his arms, but Ni Miao hugged his neck and just wouldn't let go.
"It's already in the city, come down and go by yourself!"
Seeing that Nimiao had no intention of standing on the ground by herself, Emia persuaded softly.
"Don't. ”
Without saying a word, Nimia refused Emiya's persuasion.
"If I don't obey, I'm going to be angry. ”
Emia pretended to be annoyed and said such things, but there was not the slightest anger in his heart, for some reason, looking at Ni Miao, he just couldn't get angry, not even a trace of negativity.
"Woo~"
Nimiao pouted, reluctantly got off Emia and stood on the sand.
With both hands in the air, Amia hurriedly took out the recording pointer from his arms. Sure enough, this is exactly where the record pointer is pointing.
"That's good luck. ”
Emia hid her face with her hands, sighing as if happy and helpless.
On the way home to send Ni Miao, she accidentally found a passage to the upper level, which was such a lucky thing, so lucky that Mia almost thought it was a hallucination.
"Let's go, go in and have a look, I hope I can meet your acquaintances!"
Emia held out her hand. Placed in front of Ni Miao, a smile appeared on his face.
"Hmm!"
Nimia nodded heavily, and happily stretched out her hands and grabbed the hand that Emia had outstretched.
The two of them walked slowly and leisurely in the direction that looked like the city gate.
――――――
"That's ...... I need to report to the Commander. ”
A soldier defending the city said a few words to his companion and hurriedly ran into the city.
――――――
"That's a ...... Is it worthy of being the lowest class?"
Although Emia spoke words of admiration, his face was full of sarcasm.
It serves as a transportation artery between various strata. Naturally, there will be a large flow of people in the Tower of Babel, and where there is a flow of people, a city will be formed. As a result, the Tower of Babel in each stratum is surrounded by huge cities, and these cities are called the 'central cities' of each floor.
These central cities, built around the Tower of Babel, are not an exaggeration to say that they are the largest and most prosperous cities in each stratum.
However, when it came time to see the situation in the lowest central city, Amia was disappointed.
It's not like it's deserted. But you can almost describe this city as a door.
Strangely glancing at the guards who were standing upright at the gate of the city, feeling out of place with the city, Emia pulled Nimia into the city slowly.
Emia wanted to see what strange specialties the Demon Realm had, and see what they traded with, but who knows, walked a few streets, and didn't see a single open shop.
"Nimiao-sama, Nimiao-sama. ”
Shouts behind you. Emia couldn't help but stop, but he didn't expect that he really met someone who knew Ni Miao. And so fast.
Turning to look at the source of the voice, I saw a group of demons rushing towards the two of them, and it was the man with a pair of panda eyes who ran at the front, shouting Ni Miao's name.
"Nimiao-sama, you're back, and you've been searching for your whereabouts for the past two days. Let's let her know as soon as we have news from you. ”
Standing in front of Ni Miao, the panda-eyed man spoke respectfully.
Such a scene looks very funny, and the burly man actually whispers to the little girl who is only his thigh-high height.
But it's not unusual, even in that world. There are also people who are driven by money to do this, not to mention this world where the law of the jungle is the law of the jungle and force is respected.
Although it was a little surprising that Ni Miao actually had such strength or status, there was another thing that made him more concerned.
This name was still in Emiya's mind not long ago, although it is very common for such a big world name to be duplicated, but Emia always felt that the Frei mentioned by this man was the one he knew.
"I've been in the city for the past few days, and if my sister comes back, tell her I'm here! ”
Ni Miao said to the panda-eyed man expressionlessly, then turned his head to look at Emiya and said coquettishly.
Seeing Ni Miao behaving like this, the guards couldn't help but take a few steps back, with a stupid expression of disbelief on their faces, only the panda-eyed man's body trembled, but he didn't move his steps.
"Uh-huh, yes!"
Sobering up from her contemplation, Emia reflexively replied to Nimiao's words.
"It turns out that this lord is the brother of Lord Frey, and at this glance, the two of them really look alike. ”
Because he was too nervous just now, the panda-eyed man didn't pay much attention to it, but now when he heard Ni Miao's name for the man he didn't know, he noticed that Ni Miao and Emia not only have similar clothes, but even their facial features are very similar, but Ni Miao's facial features are much softer.
"It's very similar~"
The panda-eyed man's words were like a heavy hammer hitting Amiya's head, causing him to be dizzy, and countless images flashed through his mind.
Why did he feel so familiar with Ni Miao, why did he indulge Ni Miao so much, why didn't he notice a trace of abnormality...... The myriad whys, all brought together, let Himia know that his previous behavior was not normal.
A trace of sweat came out of Emiya's forehead, and Emiya's feet, who had come to her senses, went limp, and she almost fell to the ground.
"Father, big brother, what's wrong with you. ”
Looking at the sudden abnormality of Emiya, Ni Miao quickly reached out to support him, and asked anxiously.
"It's fine, maybe I'm tired. ”
Amia stepped back, dodging Nimiao's outstretched hand, shaking her head and standing up straight, barely squeezing out a smile on her face.
In Amiya's vision, a trace of black qi emanated from his body and merged into Ni Miao's body, which should be the reason why he had not noticed the abnormality.
"Since we're tired, let's go to the camp and rest!"
Nimmy stepped forward and grabbed Emia's hand.
Amiya shook slightly, but this time she didn't dodge again. (To be continued......)
