Chapter 290 City Guards
"Arlo, why don't you go to the City Lord's Mansion to sign up for guards?" On the street, Alai tilted his head sideways and asked Locke curiously.
Arlo is a fake name that Locke said casually, and the peach girl called it very smoothly.
"Not interested. Locke's gaze wandered around, and Locke, who had participated in the war between Faustin and Charlotte, raised his eyes and guessed the possible defense points of this activated goblin city.
Locke is also a high-achieving student who graduated from the Imperial Royal Academy of Princeton and the Knight Perseverance Branch, and he still has this vision.
"However, I've heard that the lord of the castle is very well treated. The peach girl was still puzzled.
As the pace of attack of the alien invaders is getting faster and faster, many areas suitable for the living of the living elves have been occupied, and the conditions required for the living of the activated elves are very simple, a little space, a little dirt and water are enough, but despite this, there are still many living elves starving to death in the wild every day.
Not all dirt can be eaten, and the Activated Elves can only sustain their lives by eating dirt containing specific elements and absorbing the special energy in it.
Just like the Peach Man Alai family, in addition to his parents who need to work in Fog City, Alai and his younger brother also need to do what they can, otherwise the family will starve.
There are many pools of water around the city of Mist, and it is not a problem to supply the soil and water needed to revitalize the elves, which is why the city has accepted so many refugees from outside.
Alai couldn't understand Locke's thoughts, but he and Locke were not related, and Alai couldn't persuade too much.
"Let's go over there. Allei took Locke's hand and walked towards the center of the city.
The world of the Activated Elves has not yet formed a special monetary system, and in many cases it is bartered, and Locke casually pulls out tree seeds or fallen leaves that are precious to the Animate Elves, making Alley think that this is a rich man.
The main purpose of those seeds or fallen leaves is to mix the living elves into the dirt for consumption, and it seems that some of the elements contained in the seeds or fallen leaves are incorporated into the soil, and then the elements are obtained by eating the soil.
This is the advanced method of high-level activation of the elves, and the magicians speculate that the production of the activated spirit is also related to the eating habits of the activated elves.
In the middle of the city, except for a strange white and transparent sculpture of a living goblin, there is a small square.
Around the square, countless activated goblins gathered.
"What's that?" Locke asked, pointing to the sculpture, he hadn't really seen this breed of living goblin.
"Oh, that's our former lord, Lord Abibo. Peach man Alai introduced.
"Lord... Locke's expression became serious, the activated goblins also have their own set of hierarchical systems, lords, that is a privilege that only second-level activated goblins can have.
It seems that this foggy city is indeed not simple.
Just like the material of the sculpture, the strange appearance of the Animate Fairy Lord reminded Locke of the crystalline plants outside the city.
"What race is Lord Abibo?" asked Locke, seemingly casually.
"It's the Jingguo people, the current city lord, and the descendants of Lord Abibo. Peach girl Alai said.
The Crystal Fruit People are small in the Activation Fairy World, and they belong to an ethnic minority, and in the area around here, only this Crystal Fruit People group exists in Mist City.
Alai thought that there were no crystallized people in the place where Locke lived before, so he didn't suspect anything about Locke's question.
The Crystal Fruit People have their own unique talents, and can resonate with the Crystal Tree outside the city, thus inducing the Crystal Tree to release the Crystal Mist, and the Mist City can use a natural crystal mist as a hiding barrier, relying on the talent of the City Lord and his people.
Locke silently remembered the Crystal Fruit race, and it was the first time he had heard of this branch of the Animate Elves.
Originally, because of the talent of the Jingguo people, Mist City belonged to the obscure type of city among the surrounding activated goblin cities, and the few residents were pitiful, how could they have thought that now it has become a haven for the lucky surviving goblins, and nearly a hundred revival goblin refugees flee here every day.
Thinking of the tragic situation of the revitalized goblin compatriots in the face of the invaders, Alai's sentimental little girl suddenly became much lower, and the activation of the goblins was in the patrol team outside the city, and there was only Alai as a female, the reason was that Alai wanted to do something for his race.
"Arlo, you should also sign up for the City Guards!" Suddenly, Alai ran up to Locke, grabbed Locke with two small fluffy and smooth hands, and said solemnly.
Locke, who didn't know how many lives of the activated goblins had been stained on his hands, saw such a humane expression in the eyes of an activated goblin for the first time.
It may be that Locke couldn't bear to refuse Alai's request, or it could be that Locke had something in his heart, and the next morning, under Alai's recommendation, Locke went to the recruiting office not far from the city lord's mansion.
"Arlo, come on!" Outside, Alai waved his fist at Locke, cheering up.
Alai had to follow the patrol team to patrol outside the city in the morning, and he couldn't accompany Locke.
"You'd better not go southwest. After hesitating for a long time, Locke admonished Alai before leaving.
"Why?" said Alai, wondering.
"Anyway, don't go over ... Well, I escaped from that side, and I know there's danger. Roque's ambiguous answer made Alley nod his head in understanding.
Although they have only known each other for two days, Locke has a good sense of Alai, a peach girl, and subconsciously does not want to see this kind-hearted girl from another place have an accident.
To the southwest is the camp of the Holy Tower troops, and the white crystal mist not only covers the internal Haze City, but also obscures the external vision of the activated goblins in the Haze City, they may not know that a group of nearly a thousand invaders is near them, and danger is imminent.
Seeing Alai disappear from his sight, the voice of the Activated Fairy Recruitment Office behind him came, "Next, Pear Man Arlo!"
"Yes, here we are!" Locke snapped back.
