Chapter 110: The Birds from the North

The overall appearance of Xuantian City was much more magnificent than last time, not only because the city-state upgraded, and the area of the city become larger, but also because of the extremely powerful weapons on the city walls.

It was much better than the scattered weapons in Wuyu City before, and the level was different.

There were eight people following Li Aoting this time, including her, a total of nine people, which was considered a small team in the city, but most of the teams in the city know each other.

Even if they didn’t know each other, they still looked familiar, so Li Aoting attracted the attention of other teams as soon as they came.

They were not the first squad to relocate here this fall.

Several people looked at the newly-appeared hot spring and training rooms in the city and felt in their hearts that the city lord here has a lot of money. How long has it been? Not only has the city-state been upgraded to the third level, but also opened several more stores.

The training room was what attracted their attention the most, and several people immediately signed up for the card. Fortunately, now that the training room had ended its frenzy period, so there were vacant rooms.

A group of them were like country bumpkins at this time, looking at everything here with glowing eyes.

“It’s amazing, it’s even possible to fight wild monsters.”

“Hey! Look at this, it’s a black scorpion. We suffered a lot from these wild monsters before.”

“Choose this one, abuse it, it won’t get hurt anyway.”

They excitedly chose a few black scorpions to fight against. At first, they failed to kill this wild monster. It was not until Li Aoting appointed two city-states to cooperate randomly that they killed it.

It was just a pity that the good times didn’t last long. It didn’t take long for the residents of the city to have conflicts. Several city-states were too busy to take care of themselves. They didn’t have the time to clean up the black scorpions frequently. They were afraid that if they were not in the city, there would be chaos in the city-state.

In this way, the small team trained here for a full three hours before leaving exhausted. Although it was a virtual battle, the energy consumed was real.

Several people turned their heads and went to the restaurant. Although they were sweating a lot, filling their stomachs was the most important thing now.

The menu in the restaurant has a variety of dishes and was delicious. Here they fill their stomachs and replenish most of their energy.

After Li Aoting and the others ate a meal, the total value of basic everyone’s attributes increased by a few points, indicating that it was a delicacy made of good ingredients.

“Captain, it’s too uncomfortable to be covered with sweat, why don’t we go to the hot spring first?” A team member suggested.

Li Aoting also came back to her senses. Now the sweat evaporated a little, but she still felt uncomfortable: “Okay, let’s go there.”

After that, it was another amazing journey.

Looking at today’s list, Lu Jiu found that nine people from outside the city had arrived at the lending hall. The most familiar name was Li Aoting, a city lord whom she had met in Jinghe District.

She patted Shen Jufeng on the shoulder: “Look, Li Aoting is here too, does this mean she also disbanded her city-state?”

Yao Bingan was a pioneer in this area. She simply disbanded her city-state and came here.

Shen Jufeng didn’t care about these things: “I don’t know, she can stay here, just don’t cause trouble.”

He was sure that there will be more and more cases like this in the future. As long as the residents don’t cause trouble in the city, they don’t have the time to care about each individual’s specific situation.

Lu Jiu scratched her hair: “Due to the disbandment of other city-states this autumn, our Xuantian City has added nearly a thousand residents. We originally thought about making better means of transportation to go to other city-states to hang out and attract people to come here. It seems I don’t need it.”

Xuantian City was currently the most powerful city-state in Jinjiang District. Of course, there were other well-developed city-states in this district, but it was too far away from Xuantian City.

Shen Jufeng said: “In the future, there is no need to intentionally publicize. The people who live here are the best spokespersons and their relaxed daily life is the best publicity.”

After the gamification of the world, it was not so easy to live a relaxed life. There was not only physical fatigue but also psychological pressure.

Lu Jiu lay paralyzed on the sofa: “I feel like I have nothing to do, and I just spend the whole day playing wild hunting games, I’m a bit tired…”

Shen Jufeng ignored her, this kind of life was already very good. This woman simply left all the affairs of the city to him to make her life so easy.

Lu Jiu was still nagging: “Hey, I don’t know why, I always feel like I see something in the canopy of the giant tree, but I can’t tell what it is. Say, it’s autumn, and the leaves of other trees are about to fall bald, but the leaves of those trees are only turning yellow. The leaves falling in them are very little.”

Shen Jufeng also noticed this, “Maybe their vitality is stronger, and maybe the leaves will fall in the last few days of autumn.”

What was the focus of this woman? She can still leisurely and elegantly observe those giant trees.

But Lu Jiu shook her head: “No, I feel something wrong. Tomorrow I will equip the wings and put them on the top to take a look.”

While on the way to Jinghe District, she has been attracted by those giant trees, she can’t help but want to look at them. And today, she felt a little strange.

“Then avoid other people’s eyes, otherwise they will be suspicious of you if you fly so high. There have been a few batches of mutant mantises, so the manager of the blacksmith shop made a list of wings, but you told me recently there are many things to do, so the production of wings is temporarily suspended. When those people have wings, they will naturally guess that they can’t fly high without adding gems.”

Shen Jufeng’s words dispelled Lu Jiu’s desire to observe the giant tree in front of people.

“That’s fine, it depends on the situation, I’ll take a look secretly.”

In the distance they didn’t know, a group of wild birds and monsters were marching here from the north, densely packed, with mouths full of sharp teeth, screaming.

Lu Jiu shivered and then hugged the small heater in her arms. It was getting colder and colder, and there were only twenty days left in autumn. They had to cherish this little time and hurry up to accumulate winter supplies.

Just after dawn, Lu Jiu was full of energy and opened the door to stretch. It was quite late last night to discuss with Shen Jufeng about the winter, but even so, she didn’t feel too uncomfortable when she woke up from a sound sleep.

After a while, the door of Shen Jufeng’s room also opened. Today, the former domineering president was wearing a gray trench coat, looking very coquettish.

Zhuang Yun was the last one to go out. His daughter was still sleeping at home, and the breakfast was still warm in the kitchen. The child could serve it by herself when she got up.

It was another day to go out and go wild.

Don’t look at the bright day, the stall has already been opened, and the three of them bought rice balls with various fillings. Lu Jiu likes fried dough sticks crumbs the most, they were crispy and fragrant.

There was still some fog in the morning, and it was difficult to see places a little farther away.

Lu Jiu slowly swallowed the rice ball in her mouth: “It’s foggy today? I haven’t seen any weather other than sunny for a long time.”

Zhuang Yun ate fast, he ate the last bite before taking Lu Jiu’s words: “Didn’t you say when the game was updated, the four seasons and natural disasters are all online? Does it mean that the earth may one day appear here?”

It was just that the previous earth fortunately had a modern society with advanced communications, where once a disaster happened the army can provide immediate support.

But now… just thinking about it makes them panic, but luckily Xuantian City was on higher terrain. If there will be a heavy rainstorm or something, they don’t think their surroundings will be flooded so quickly.
