Chapter 380
The city of hope, with its towering walls, stands on a plain like a prehistoric beast.
On the wall of the city, a door with a height of tens of meters is wide open. People come and go, and the flow of people is just like running water. This kind of scene has never appeared before the end of the world or even in history.
Before the end of the world, there were too many exits in the city. You can get in and out from any place. There would never be thousands or even 100000 people going in and out of the same place. But the city of hope is a closed city with only a few places to go in and out. The flow of people is too large, which creates such a strange landscape.
Or wearing armor, riding a mutant beast, wearing a robe, holding a staff, or carrying a sword, one by one, if they were placed before the end of the world, they were all against heaven, but at this time these people had to walk through the city gate obediently.
From the end of the world to now, many people have the ability to fly, whether relying on skills or others, but none of these people dare to fly directly into the city wall.
If anyone dares to do this, he will be killed every minute. This is contempt for the high-level of the city of hope. Who dares to do this? Don't want to live?
Although no one explicitly stipulated that they could not fly in through the city gate, people silently observed this rule.
The city gate changes. Two teams of soldiers with distinct armor fight in two rows on both sides of the city gate. The cold iron armor and the cold face are daunting, and the long gun in the hand is not daring.
These soldiers are not very strong, and their average level is only about level 10 or 20. At least half of the people who go in and out of the city gate are more powerful than them, and their level is higher than them, but no one dares to give them a look, because they represent the giant city of hope.
Once upon a time, a leader of marginal forces came here for the first time. Relying on his confidence, he was very dissatisfied with the investigation of entering and leaving the city of hope. He was furious, but he was killed every minute and had no chance to cry.
It's nearly evening. When it's dark, the gate of the city of hope will be closed to prevent monsters from rushing into the city at night. The gate of the city of hope is as high as the door opening. It's two solid iron blocks with a thickness of 10 cm and a weight of more than 100000 kg. When it's closed, it needs dozens of people with more than 30 levels to push it hard.
Don't ask how these two huge iron doors come from. In the end of the world, there are many ways for safety.
"New? Pay the entrance fee, 20 magic coins. Don't ask why. It's a rule. You can only stay in the city for one night. The next day, if the patrol finds that you don't have the certificate of residence, you can either pay taxes or be driven out. You can only enter the city by paying taxes and getting the certificate.
At the door, a soldier in armor stopped a big man who didn't know where he came from. His eyes coldly pointed to a row of tables and chairs not far away.
Although the level of the big man has reached level 18, he can roam in the wild with care, and he doesn't need to look at anyone's face to act, but he can only be obedient to the rude guard at this time.
It's not that he didn't have anger in his heart, but he didn't dare to see the soldiers who were full of murderous spirit.
Not far from the city gate is a table and chair. This is a place specially for those who have no right to live in the city of hope. They have to pay taxes here to enter every day.
At this time, there was a long line in front of these desks and chairs, one by one, waiting to pay taxes to enter the city. Many people were worried. If it was completely dark, those who did not get the qualification to enter the city would have to sleep outside the city full of crisis.
"A few days ago, Guangming Datong went out with so many people. I didn't know what to do. When I came back, I had a look at it from a distance. My face was not very good. It seemed that things were not going well.".
"I heard that commander Guangming seems to have taken some major action. He brought out more than 5000 people and returned only a little more than 1000. I don't know what happened.".
"Shh, keep your voice down. We don't talk about people like the great commander. Be careful what happens comes from your mouth.".
The tax collectors behind the table are chatting. When it comes to a certain person, they all shut their mouth. It's true that people have freedom of speech. But when and who are the people? This is the end of the world. If you make a big person unhappy, you will lose your head. Who dares to talk nonsense?
"Yes? That group of people over there seems to be a group. It looks like everyone is very powerful, "said the man behind the table, seeing a group of people in the crowd.
These people, who are sitting here, see more and more every day. They don't get surprised and don't do anything.
The crowd he saw was Tang Tian. Tang Tian was in front of them, surrounded by more than 200 people behind them. They naturally exuded the smell of the strong, which was different from ordinary people.
"Maybe it's someone from a certain force in the city, or maybe it's the base of that force outside that was destroyed by the monster and came here," said the people around him.
They see a lot of such situations and don't care at all.
"Why? You see, it's not always a winner. I know this man. He is powerful and famous in the city. How can he follow the young man who almost entered the army as a general?
"Not to mention, it's really him. You can't believe that he is so respectful to that young man. Who is that young man? Actually let Chang Sheng talk to him in such a low voice "?
In other people's discussion, Tang Tian brings more than 200 people, such as Chang Sheng, to the gate of the city. Tang Tianjia, who has been here once, is familiar with it. He takes out the residence certificate of the city of hope and goes in.
He doesn't need to worry about other people. They are all people with a grade of more than 20. Naturally, they have the ability to get a residence certificate in the city for a long time.
After entering the city, Tang Tian turned around and said to them, "you go to have a rest first, I'll deal with something. I'll see you here at this time tomorrow, and then we'll discuss how to do it.".
With that, Tang Tian said to Chang Sheng once again: "tonight you are lucky to have a hard time, collect some more information, choose the most suitable place, and make plans tomorrow.".
Tang Tian said that it is natural to choose the place to start, recover it and become his own base here. If the novice village wants to get out of the dark forest, it naturally needs to make full preparations.
After going out for so many days and spending every day in tension, these people naturally need to relax. If they have family members, they will report their safety to them. If they don't join, they will naturally find their own entertainment programs.
After saying goodbye to Chang Sheng and others, Tang Tian goes to the place where he lives alone.
"It's strange that my eyelids jumped for a while and I felt restless. I haven't felt this way for a long time. Is there something going on? Legend... Er, it is described in the novel that many people will have a premonition of the unknown danger after they are strong to a certain extent. Am I the same? Maybe I think too much. There are monsters everywhere outside for so many days. It seems that I'm a little neurotic. "Tang Tian frowned and thought, then shook his head to get rid of these ideas.
"I don't know what happened to old man Xu and his grandchildren. According to their character, one won't go out easily, and if he left them money, it should be OK." thinking of his pitiful appearance when he met old man Xu, Tang Tian quickened his pace of going back.
When he comes to his house, Tang Tian smiles faintly. No matter how long he goes out, he always has to have a nest. But this is not his own home. It doesn't give Tang Tian the warm feeling. However, Tang Tian is a little miss the people in Shijia village.
"Mr. Xu, are you there?"? Pushing open the door, Tang Tian asked aloud.
Maybe the voice of Tang Tian's coming back startled old man Xu in the room. At this time, old man Xu's old figure appeared at the door, with a happy smile on his face, and said, "you're back. You haven't met any danger. Please go into the room and have a rest.".
"Everything is OK, danger is everywhere, but I'm not good. I brought back enough materials this time, which should be enough for you. By the way, how's your granddaughter?"? Tang Tian said casually.
However, when he was close to old man Xu, Tang Tian's eyebrows jumped. How could he feel that old man Xu made me feel unhappy? But Tang Tian didn't care. He thought he was nervous.
Mentioning his granddaughter, old man Xu said with a smile: "thank you, my Lord and grandson. If it wasn't for you, we don't know where we died now. She has been much better these days, and she also knows a little friend. Maybe she went out of the city with her father. It's getting dark. I'm going to pick her up. Please have a rest, my Lord.".
Tang Tian frowned and said, "it's almost dark. It's so dangerous outside. Let's go and get her back. We can't run outside any more. You know how dangerous it is outside.".
"Thank you for your concern, but it doesn't matter. His little friend's father is a team leader of the city of hope. He takes a team of more than 100 people to patrol back and forth from the gate of the city to the" station ". This section of the road is very safe. It's OK," he said, and old man Xu began to walk out.
Don't know is intentional or unintentional, Xu old man didn't refuse Tang Tian's colleague.
"Ha ha, let's go. After taking her back, I'll trouble old Xu to see if those materials work and those materials don't work." Tang Tian thought about old Xu's magical ability and didn't pay attention to this detail.
It's nothing for Tang Tian to notice. When he comes to his strength, any conspiracy is a paper tiger.
Chatting all the way, old man Xu has a happy smile. After all, it's a great gift for the two old and young people to live a safe life in this dangerous end. It's strange that they are not happy.
Don't know why, after meeting old man Xu, Tang Tian's mood began to become irritable.
"Maybe I'm so anxious to see old man Xu making magic Rune paper with these useless materials that I'm so upset," Tang Tian shook his head and thought.
But a shadow in my heart can't go away
