A week later, the follow-up to what happened in the old site of the city was gradually completed.

The elderly in the old site were federally placed in a nursing home in the Southern Region, where the environment is beautiful and quiet, and there is no need to continue to struggle in the cold and barren North 2nd District, where the site of the incident was disinfected and disposed of, and then landfilled and sealed, and then the personnel in the camp were gradually evacuated.

Large wagons of black steel drive over the wilderness, more like armored fighting vehicles in war than cargo vehicles, and they are particularly eye-catching.

In the carriage, the sound of the group talking and laughing was endless, and one of them, a girl with black hair and a black skirt held a pink guitar and played it gently, and the successive notes jumped out from time to time.

"Yes, it's this rhythm, Ti Lan is awesome~ I learned very well." Ruby clapped her eyes, and continued to instruct the girl on how to play.

The pink-purple guitar is naturally Ruby's, and she occasionally shows off her guitar skills during performances.

"Do you know Tilan, when people stand on the stage, countless glow sticks are waving, countless eyes are gathered, that kind of scene, as if every cell is fully charged, there is infinite energy and impulse release, and as the rhythm of the music gets closer and closer to the climax, the shaking body, the flowing sweat, the sore arms, the heat in the throat, and the cry that sweeps the audience like a tsunami with the music, is just like 'ascending to heaven'." Ruby spoke wistfully of that scene, her eyes full of envy and longing.

"That must be a very good feeling! Excellent! Ruby loudly announced her wish, saying that the Twilight Orchestra was so sorry for the name if they didn't do it.

"I think about it, I can be the lead singer or part-time bass, Tilan can also choose one of them, and leave the drumming to Valker, he is so big, he must have a sense of power to play, as for tuning and playing the piano, the club should also be able to discover one, and then we will form it, and then make a few tunes, and soon it will be popular all over the star fields of the Federation and become a super invincible star!"

"Alright, alright, Ruby." Delores walked over and blindfolded Ruby with one hand from behind, then wrapped her arms around her waist with the other, allowing her overheating to cool down.

"Ti Lan is so cute, you let her on stage feel like she is surrounded by wolves, let's take it a little slowly."

"Yes...... Woo......" Although Ruby wanted to refute, she slowly closed her mouth and sat down for the sake of Delores' smiling expression.

After all, Delores is her big benefactor and good friend, so it's better not to upset her.

After that, Deloris was next to Tiran again, watching her carefully and meticulously adjust the guitar, slowly practicing and playing, the wind occasionally poured into the car through the window, brushing her and her own hair, the laughter of the people around her, and the dappled sunlight and shadows in the car, forming a nostalgic picture.

If only it could go on like this, Deloris had such a thought in her mind, and then slowly faded away.

After finishing the journey to the city, the group walked towards another gathering point in the North Second District, the 'Dead Tree Garden', which is a rare place with good security in the North Second District, and there are few wanderers and robbers along the way, and as the group slowly approaches the destination, the distant horizon gradually reveals the picture scroll full of withered jungle.

The wind-dried dead trees fell to the ground in an intertwined way, and these weathered dead trees were similar in color to loess, hard and brittle to the touch, and the sound of 'bangbang' could be heard when gently tapped.

Large swaths of dead yellow tree roots and trunks are distributed over a radius of 50 kilometers, forming a sea of dead wood, and these collapsed dead yellow trees are twisted and piled together, about six or seven meters high, and the black steel wagons walk in it, as if shuttling through the shadow jungle of light and dark.

The scenery here is unique, but it is also extraordinarily quiet, there is no living creature in sight, not even rats, the dry environment, the toxic rainy season, so that plants and animals are far away from this environment, if it is not for today's advanced technology, even human beings, it is difficult to live in such an area.

The vehicle slowly entered the center of the sea of dead trees, and finally stopped when stopped by a group of arborists dressed in dark brown clothes.

"Hello, we are entrusted by the Planetary Environmental Governance Committee to come to take samples and spot checks." A blonde girl in white jumped out of the car and came to the group to explain that although she had left some time ago, Avne had returned to the group after convincing her family.

The arborist on the other side nodded slightly, and there was no expression on his face covered in a dark veil.

"You come with me." After saying that, he led the people to the depths of the sea of trees.

Walking through the streets where dead trees had fallen, everyone finally saw the inhabited place, and the beige buildings similar to the ground, whose shapes were like full seeds on the ground.

Along the way, you can see many arborists dressed in dark brown dead leaves, who seem to abide by some kind of ancient precepts, maintain a simple and simple lifestyle, and rarely speak loudly.

Deep in the quarters, a huge onion-like building comes into view, with walls made of countless dead woods that bend towards the center and form a dome.

Walking inside, the dome nearly ten stories high had sunlight shining through the empty space inside, and at the end of the view, a throne made of dead wood appeared, and an old man in white stood in front of the throne with everyone on his back, as if meditating.

Hearing footsteps, he turned around, revealing his long gray beard, "Hello, friend from afar. ”

"I'm Augustati Samekulutas, and my name is probably a bit of a mouthful, and you can call me Augustus as well."

"Hello, Mr. Augustus." Everyone nodded, and then said what they meant.

"I've heard of you, both about Lebion and about the recent events at the site of the Exhausting Tower." With a wave of his hand, he asked the arborist waiting beside him to bring the tables and chairs, which were made of dead wood, and the surface was polished smooth, very simple and durable.

"Thank you very much for your contribution to the security environment in the North 2nd District, about the sampling investigation, we will assist you in carrying out it, if you want to visit and understand the situation in the dead tree garden, you can also tell us directly, there is nothing worth hiding here, you can confess in the sun." Speaking of this, Ti Lan felt a faint pride rising in the hearts of the people around her.

"However, there is something I would like to ask you for." After talking about the previous scene, he mentioned the important part.

"We're still here, but it's not going to be good, so we need some help."

"What kind of help?" Tilan stepped out and looked at the tall old man.

"It's about plant breeding, and about future market channels." He sighed softly, as if he had been agonizing about such a thing for a long time.

"You are from Edus Academy, there should be the most advanced instruments and research equipment in the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Domain, we have been struggling to improve the crops and adapt to the special environment here."

"In addition, there is also the problem of sales, although we produce some crops, it has been difficult to make a profit because of transportation difficulties and market disapproval."

"These problems are not simple, and they are not something that a few of us students can solve." Deloris walked out slowly, and she tugged at Tilan's sleeve to tell her not to say yes yet.

"Yes, I understand that these issues are a bit arrogant, but we can make a reasonable agreement and give you enough in return." He slowly stroked the long beard in front of him.

"I see, but with my personality, I'd like to take a closer look at your situation here and then make a decision, okay?" Ti Lan looked at the old man in front of her, although in her perception, the old man was not lying, but if she didn't witness it herself, it still felt too casual.

"No problem, in the next week, we can take you to take a closer look at our living, planting, and subsistence here, and I believe that after reading it, you will also understand our hardships and wishes." Several arborists bent down with respectful etiquette and led them to the side door to leave.

Although they are no longer as glorious as they once were, these arborists still maintain a relatively noble quality in terms of spirit, words and deeds.

This is also the first time that a group of people have entered the North Second District and faced a relatively simple and relaxed environment.
