"Hmmmm...brother! Look! There's a snack bar there too!"
Elizabeth ran excitedly on the bluestone streets of the city. With her mouth full of food, she pointed to a snack bar on the corner and said vaguely - this girl has eaten all the way since she entered the city. There were a lot of food remnants and sauces, and in his hands were several bunches of colorful dumplings, golden and crispy fried squid, grilled rice cakes and other unfinished snacks.
"It's not too late to go to the snack bar after you finish eating what you have..." Wu Ming saw that the snack bar Elizabeth mentioned was located at the end of the street, and he couldn't help but remind him, "Don't go too far this time. We are not free to move out, there are people watching us along the way."
After cleaning up the pollution and getting along peacefully for a few days, the Pioneer Council and the Rebel Guards finally lifted the initial alert on Wu Ming and others, and allowed them to enter the human city under the supervision of the Rebel Guard members - of course , the so-called lifting of the alert is only for Wu Ming, Siege Fei and Elizabeth. Morrie, who was judged to have returned from the dead, is still under surveillance - he is still not allowed to enter human cities.
So in order to be able to go out freely, Mori was naturally 'sacrificially sacrificed'. When Wu Ming and others happily went to the human city in the wishing world to enjoy their journey to another world, this poor little black man was being locked up in the wilderness outside the city. Enjoy the top VIP treatment in the high tower under the supervision of Vincent himself...
Of course, although they can enter the city, their treatment is not very good. Within a radius of 300 meters, there are at least a dozen rebel guards staring at them. These people's deliberate attention makes them too concerned about danger and prying. The sensitive Siegfried was very uncomfortable with it. Several times, if Wu Ming hadn't stopped her, she would have picked up her sword (or used her claws) and swatted it directly in the direction of her sight.
"Okay~ Then I'll finish what I'm doing!" Elizabeth, who ran away, happily responded, biting down the dessert dumplings in her hand, including the bamboo skewers and dumplings, and ran back again, then looked at When he glanced at Siegfried, who was silently following Wu Ming, his eyes suddenly lit up and he swooped over: "Brother Fei! Why don't you eat! The food here is so delicious!"
Siegfried rolled his eyes at Elizabeth: "I don't really want to eat these things now... um——"
Before Brother Fei finished speaking, the silly girl who was full of energy forcefully stuffed the bunch of golden and crispy deep-fried squid in her hand into the dragon girl's mouth, and exposed it while stuffing it back. Silly smile: "Look, look, the food here is delicious! And even the bamboo sticks used to skewer food are edible. It's completely different from our place..."
Siegfried, who was forcefully stuffed with food, was about to have a seizure, but because the food was stuffed into her mouth, she chewed it subconsciously. The squid was fried to a crispy and chewy texture, and as she chewed the squid legs, she The delicious soup that gradually melted and spread in her mouth made her stop the anger that was about to burst out, and instead silently stuffed the whole bunch of fried squid into her mouth.
The food in Wishing World is unreasonable at all. This skewer of fried squid is impeccable in terms of texture, chewiness and seasoning. Rather, it perfectly meets Siegfried’s preferences and expectations. After taking the first bite He couldn't stop at all. He seemed to want to eat his tongue too. After swallowing the fried squid in his mouth in two or three mouthfuls, he was still licking his lips with some unfinished thoughts...
The dragon girl's unhappiness turned into a spineless muttering under the unimaginable delicious food: "emmmm...it's quite delicious..."
"Hey! Then Brother Fei, come and try this again!"
"I'll do it myself, don't stuff it... um... I told you not to force it on me... emmm... Oh my god, it's so delicious..."
Watching the two girls fighting, Wu Ming smiled helplessly and shook his head, then turned his attention back to examining the entire city.
Compared with that fantasy city whose building complex occupies a quarter of a continent and whose area is almost the same as that of several small European countries put together, this city, which is close to the size of a modern metropolis, can only be considered in the wishing world at best. It's just a small and medium-sized city - only slightly larger than the city that was destroyed by the ravages of the disaster matrix a while ago.
And judging from the world map that Wu Ming has observed and drawn through the stealth probe, the scale of this city is indeed relatively small...
Compared with those deep-sea cities that stretch endlessly on the bottom of the deep sea, there are magnificent cities built on the tops of mountains in the Antarctic Mountains that surpass the highest peaks in the world, underground cities buried deep underground close to the center of the earth, or buildings that are simply suspended in the sky. This city has nothing to offer in terms of geographical location, and it does not have the spiritual belief bonus of a holy land tour like the Utopian City. The scale of the buildings can form a city level, rather than being three or three independent buildings in an empty space. They are standing everywhere on the mainland, which is already considered a very good development.
After all, now that there is a wishing network, the distance in space has been completely broken. Even if you live in the Crazy Mountains of Antarctica and want to visit the underwater city of the South Pacific, for people in the wishing world, it is just a matter of closing your eyes and making a wish. That's it - basically just like the dormitory students in the school who go to the dormitory next door to visit each other.
It's not a difficult thing at all.
For Wu Ming, although this city is not large, it is an important way for him to understand the world better - a human gathering place like this that can form a city scale must have some significance in this world. .
Following Elizabeth from entering the street lined with shops to now, Wu Ming roughly classified them into categories.
The vast majority of those shops are mainly about delicacies with mouth-watering aromas, followed by clothing stores filled with all kinds of exquisite clothing and clothing styles. Of course, there are also many exquisite workmanship and amazing design concepts. A wonderful jewelry and art shop.
Wu Ming even saw a few bookstores, but after glancing at the covers from a distance outside, he silently looked away - most of the books placed in the window were "How to make wishes through fantasy to make the flavor more touching" "Food" "About defining the meaning of beauty in detail - using wishes to enumerate 'beauty'" "How to use wishes to make designing clothes more convenient" "Simple and easy-to-understand self-realization method" and the like...
The things sold in these stores...or are not sold at all, because the store owners just take out the things in their stores and force them on every passerby who passes by the store, regardless of whether they are interested in the things in the store or not. , and naturally do not charge any remuneration or other equivalents.
In fact, after so many years of popularization of the wish-making network, most people no longer pursue material and resource satisfaction as crazily as they did in the early days of the Great Miracle Era. When any material can be made out of thin air through the Internet, people The desire for material pursuits has dropped to a very low level.
And here's the problem...
Wu Ming quietly followed Elizabeth and excitedly dragged Siegfried into the clothing store. When he watched the store owner follow the silly girl's instructions and make a wish on the wishing network to create a set of clothes and a mask suitable for the dragon girl out of thin air, he He couldn't help but squint his eyes.
