Chapter 218: Tranquility
In the dim alley, Wren stared at the man lying on the ground in front of him, his abdomen was stained red with blood, his chest was slightly heaving, and he covered the wound with one hand, trying to prevent the blood from flowing out.
On the ground next to the man, there was a dagger stained with blood, the original color was no longer clear, and the strange thing was that the thin layer of blood on the blade was constantly boiling, and the ground nearby seemed to be cut by something, drawing marks one after another.
Thinking of what Captain Seven had said to him not long ago, "This man brutally killed a dozen children", Wren's gaze kept wandering between the man and the dagger, and finally he walked towards the dagger, whose blood had boiled clean and was surrounded by cuts.
.......
About half an hour ago, Wren was picking up a cell phone at a cell phone store near Reisburg.
After Alexia's incident, out of some security considerations, he decided to buy another mobile phone, usually go out and bring a new one, and the one Alexia gave him was temporarily sealed, and occasionally went to see if there was a push.
There are no living people in the mobile phone store, and the mobile phone store, called "Angela's mobile phone shop", belongs to a magician, and usually the store is only tended by a very pleasant-looking metal golem.
In fact, the whole store doesn't even have a faΓ§ade, just this mascot-like golem, standing on the side of the road, holding a small umbrella that can barely cover its head, but not its body.
The umbrella reads, "Angela's mobile phone shop."
If PHS hadn't recommended this store, Wren would never have found a metal golem on the side of the road to buy a mobile phone.
Especially if it also has a golem to the left that gives people divination and a golem on the right that provides wedding officiating.
And their names are all "Angela's XXX", it seems that this magician is really wide-ranging......
When Wren first arrived, there was no one else in front of the three golems, and it seemed that business was not very good, so they could only get together and chat.
"Divination house, what do you think of the 'Mariel's clothing store' that was born recently next door to the master's house? I think she's beautiful. β
"Isn't it? Mobile phone store, do you like her? She's so dirty! β
"Nonsense, the clothing store is so beautiful, where is she?"
"We are cloud crystals and flame jade dual cores, that clothing store is a single core, the energy core is still the sea stone used, and you can count your head as dead when you calculate an account, isn't this dirt? You're in love with your phone, and you're better than that clothing store. β
"The divination house is right, and I'm against it. Mobile phone store, if you really want to have a relationship with her, we look down on you! β
"Church of True Love, shut up! Do you know what love is? Even if the core of the clothing store is a few versions behind us, I love her just as much! β
Wren: "......"
"Ahem." Although it was interesting to watch a few golems discuss his views on love, Wren still didn't forget his business.
"Excuse me, I want to look at my phone, I don't know if it's convenient or not?"
"Convenient! Convenient! β
Seeing that a guest was coming, several golems instantly returned to normal, and although the two shops next door were not their business, they also put on their signature smiles.
The golem who called the mobile phone store raised the umbrella above Wren's head and introduced: "The main focus of this store is to tailor models for customers, I don't know what kind of mobile phones customers need?" β
Wren looked around, there were only these three golems nearby, and there was nothing else, and asked curiously, "Custom?" It should be time-consuming, I probably won't be able to wait that long. β
"You don't have to wait long." This time it was the divination house on the left who spoke: "We are a dual-core golem, both the energy supply and the processing speed are first-class, and we also have a large memory, all the materials are carried, and it only takes ten minutes for you to do it on the spot." β
The True Love Church on the right nodded, and teased: "That's right, some single-core earth sisters are not so powerful." β
The mobile phone store was immediately angry...... His face did not change: "She...... She's single-core, she's selling clothes, and it's not so complicated. Yes, that's right, that's it, the two of you, one is touching the ball every day, and the other has no business at all, what kind of dual-core, it's not energy-saving at all. Now environmental protection is the real fashion, clothing stores are much more fashionable than you! β
"Mobile phone store, you say it again?"
"Who you say doesn't have a business?"
"......" is the latest
Wren silently turned around to leave, feeling that it was better for him to buy a mobile phone in a different place.
"Wait, wait, don't go." The mobile phone store grabbed Wren's hand, then turned around and glared at his two companions, and then said to Wren: "Sorry to let you see the joke, let's continue to talk about the phone, ignore these two guys." β
Wren had no choice but to stay, he also wanted to see how the Golem sold mobile phones.
"Guests, our customized service, is all-encompassing, so I need to understand your needs, first of all, in terms of functionality, do guests have any special requirements?"
Wren thought for a moment and shook his head: "No, as long as the normal function is there." β
"What about performance? For example, memory, memory, power or something? β
Wren shook his head again, "It's enough, oh yes, I want it to be a little more durable, I mean the shell or something, don't break too easily." β
"And then there's the shape, do you have any requirements for the shape and color of the phone?"
"No, a normal rectangular phone will do, and the color will be black."
"Okay, this is the material and performance you listed for the guest, the simulated shape of the phone, and the estimated pricing, I don't know if you are satisfied or not."
Looking at the rows of data floating on the golem's belly, and the phone that was indistinguishable from a normal mobile phone, Wren suddenly wondered what he had customized......
Fortunately, the price was acceptable, and the live production was quite fresh, and Wren accepted the deal.
After receiving a definite answer, the mobile phone store stretched out two hands, put his wide palms together, and a small magic circle appeared on his palm, while some tiny particles of various colors seeped out from his "skin", floating in the magic circle, and gradually converging and combining.
Once the production began, the phone store remained motionless, and the divination house next to it explained to Wren: "The production process took up too much of his core functions, and now the phone store can't react to anything else." β
"If that woman in the clothing store did this kind of thing, she probably burned out her brain!"
The mobile phone store was busy making mobile phones, the divination house and the Church of True Love began to complain again, and Ren, who was waiting for the mobile phone to be completed, could only listen to it from the side.
As a result, the two of them talked farther and farther apart, from the clothing store girl to the passerby girl she had seen the day before yesterday who transplanted snake scales into her arm, from the passerby girl to the recent appearance of the curse of the big-eyed child in Brika City, and finally turned to current affairs, and the two golems talked about the strange thing that happened to Nellas yesterday.
Because this incident is so bizarre, it is now a hot topic of discussion in the media and the public.
The reason why it is bizarre is to look at the headline of the report:
"The city of Neras has been attacked by a sexy girl's wooden box, and the Light of Hope is temporarily closed to the public!"
The key is this "sexy girl wooden box", according to the video recorded by people, the attack on Neras City was a large wooden box, I don't know who the original owner of this box was, anyway, it was not a serious person, and I bought this kind of box with a sexy girl dressed extremely cool on the outside.
I don't know what he thinks, as soon as the box is opened, the girl drawn outside will be "separated" from the lid together.
Probably for this reason, he ended up throwing the box away as garbage and finally sent it to a garbage disposal station outside the city.
As a result, the city of Neras was attacked by such a box last night, and every defense force in the city was its opponent.
The people who went up all saw the sexy girl's "big mouth", and they fell into a coma.
And Wren only found out after he came back what the "monster shell" he picked up was, and he also knew why those people reacted like that after seeing him......
When he thought of that picture, he didn't even dare to read the news now.
There are different opinions about what this box monster is, and most people who see the news will definitely have their first reaction: "Are you kidding?" I think someone is hiding in the box.
But as they learned about the incident, more and more people fell into self-doubt: "How can a normal person do such a shameful thing?" β
There are even many monster experts who have come forward to say: "This may be a parasitic monster, the box is conducive to its hiding, and when some tempted person approaches, it will open its mouth and swallow people." β
Wren hopes that this statement will be accepted soon......
