Chapter 194: Shelf

Uptown allowed her in at the last minute.

Although I don't know what the reason is, since I've come in, let's take a good stroll, and then dismiss the thunder cat on a summer night, get back on the broom, and ask casually:

"Where did I live before?"

Lillian shook her head, indicating that this was also something that could not be said.

"Okay...... "Summer night was expected, but it didn't matter. She pulled her broom and climbed almost vertically upwards until it reached a height of nearly 1,000 meters, before stopping.

"Then introduce me to Uptown, you should be able to do it?" She asked again.

This time, Lilian nodded obediently: "Well, although there are many places I haven't been to, I still know the general division." ”

The girl first pointed to the skyscraper in the distance, it was like a giant pillar connecting heaven and earth, towering in the middle of the upper city, the top floor almost touched the dome, but the bottom was-

It was actually floating?! The summer night was a little surprising.

The base, which covers several square kilometers, is suspended in mid-air at a height of about 100 meters, and seven straight pipes protrude from under the base and burrow into the ground, but the slender size is clearly not the pillars supporting the building.

"That's the headquarters building for Aether Exploration."

Lilian explains: "The golden pillars below are the 'Taiyuan Pulp' pipeline. Each pipe is connected to a magic borehole, and the drilling machines are installed beneath the surface, which opens the bottom of the Debusso Tower and reaches into the Aetheric Sea, from which the Aether slurry is extracted and transported into the headquarters building. The refining plant of the original pulp is located in the building, which extracts the magic from the original pulp and then transports it to every corner of the Debussota through the Moer net. ”

The factory was built directly in the headquarters building...... Summer Night was a little strange, but she didn't think much of it, and Lillian continued:

"Most of the floors above the factory are the subsidiaries of 'Aether Exploration', and further up, there are the office areas of various departments of 'Aether Exploration', and further up, they belong to the company's executives and city lords......."

"You know pretty well." Summer Night said.

Lillian knew what she was thinking, and quickly shook her hand: "Many people in Uptown know about these things, but I haven't even entered that building. ”

"Oh......"

"That's where the pets live." Lilian pointed to the west, where there was a dense cluster of apartment buildings, most of which were more than 100 floors long, but looked like a bush under a towering tree compared to the adjacent headquarters building.

Then, Lillian pointed to the side close to the two of them: "The south side of the headquarters building is the commercial area, but it is the commercial area of the pets, and the big witches rarely come here, they usually stay there......"

The girl pointed to the east and north of the area, where there were no tall buildings, only small islands floating at different heights, few hundred meters shorter, and as high as the waist of the headquarters building. Each island has a different style of architecture, but all of them are beautifully built.

"Those are the residences of the big witches, the buildings on the island are customized according to their personal preferences, most of the level 4 big witches live below, and the higher the level, the higher the island where they live."

"That'...... Is the largest island the residence of the lord of the castle? "Summer Night pointed to a very high island, which was several times the size of the others.

"Uh...... No, I heard that the lord of the castle lives in the headquarters building. Lillian shook her head, "As for this kind of big island, Sister Summer Night, you seeβ€”there are actually a few over there, and most of them are shops and entertainment venues that are only open to the Great Witch......"

Hey?

Summer Night suddenly raised her head, and just now, she felt a gaze cast from a great distance and fall on her, this line of sight was so hidden that if it weren't for the fact that this head could enhance her perception now, she wouldn't even notice it at all.

She followed her gaze towards the source, only to see the roof of the headquarters building, which almost touched the skyβ€”that place, if Lillian had just introduced, was ......

The lord of the city? Or is it another big witch?

Obviously, Xia Ye had already looked back, but her gaze had no intention of looking away, but it was like a dog skin plaster, sticking to her body like this.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Xia Ye was a little surprised by the other party's cheekiness, but there was nothing he could do, he couldn't fly over and beat the other party, right? And I can't beat it......

She simply ignored the other party.

"Shall we go there first?" She pointed to the "pet business area" and said.

"Okay." Lillian certainly had no opinion.

The two of them drove the broomstick and flew towards the area, and soon reached their destination, slowing down on a summer night, riding the broomstick through the tall buildings while looking around curiously.

It's similar to Midtown's business district, but pedestrians wear a variety of collars around their necks, which are the hallmarks of pets.

She observed for a while, and then found something unusual - every now and then, pets suddenly disappeared, some of them were on the road, some were shopping, some were playing...... But no matter what you're doing, you may suddenly disappear into thin air, and the pets around you are not surprised by this situation at all, and they don't look strange at all.

Summer Night spoke the question in her heart.

"They were chosen by the Great Witch." Lillian explained in a low voice.

"In Shangcheng, except for a small number of exclusive pets, most of the other pets are sold publicly, and the entire city is arranged with some kind of contract, and the big witches can check the real-time situation of any non-exclusive pet in the crystal ball, if there is a fancy one, just pick it out and put it in the 'shopping cart', and then click to buy, you can instantly summon the purchased pet to your side for use."

"I see......" Summer Night nodded.

She looked around again, and this time, she no longer felt that this business district was very similar to Midtown - this bustling area with more than a dozen main roads was actually just an oversized shelf, and these beautiful pets coming and going in front of her were the goods on the shelves, and the big witches were left to choose and buy.

"However, these big witches have a strong desire to shop." She pointed her gaze around, "Pets disappear from view almost all the time. ”

"Because for those big witches, the vast majority of pets are cheap. And ......" Lillian hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Pets tend to consume quickly, so they are purchased frequently. ”

"Oh......" Xia Ye didn't ask what "consumed quickly" in detail, and was about to activate the broom and go to other places to take a look, but suddenly a voice came from behind him:

"Summernight-sama...... Is it Summer Night?! ”

Xia Ye looked back in surprise and found that it was a beautiful girl with silver hair and blue eyes, and it also wore a collar around its neck, indicating that it was a pet. Although Xia Ye has always been proud of her ability to remember people, this time, she was also stuck for a while before she finally reluctantly remembered:

"Are you supposed to be...... Wei, Venella, it seems to be the name, right? ”

The other party suddenly showed an excited expression and nodded his head vigorously: "Hmm! Great, Summer Night-sama remembers me! ”

"I almost don't remember...... "Summer Night said with a strange expression, "because I thought you were dead." ”
