It's raining.
Heshia looked at the changing simulated sky on the dome of the Glass Dream, with dark clouds passing by and the sound of rain falling. In some corners of the hall, water also dripped into the containers below, causing some splashes. .
In order to avoid the distortion caused by repeated sunny days, the simulated sky in the "Liu Li Meng" is synchronized with the weather on the surface. In the city of Arpeggio, the entire dome is also designed to reflect the starry sky at night, allowing residents living underground to People will not be too depressed and depressed.
After finishing her day's work, Hesia came to Anducia's ivy flower room. The elf maid was teasing a cat with a golden gradient.
Gently scratching the cat's chin, the pale golden cat leaned in Anducia's arms with a comfortable expression, and occasionally raised its legs to move.
"Is this going to be over, Danterian?" Anducia raised her head and said hello.
"Yes, Sister Anducia." Hesia also came to her, squatting down and looking at the lazy kitten.
"It's called 'Ranran'. It's about 4 months old. It was given to me by a friend of mine." Anducia introduced the coquettish kitten in her arms.
"It's very cute and fluffy." The girl touched it carefully, and a small snake came out of the sleeve of her other hand. It swam out, its body floated in the air, and looked at the kitten in front of her.
The little snake that was Sequence 2 a month ago has now advanced to Sequence 3. Although it has not become very strong, it has gained the extraordinary ability to float in the air.

Creatures that have advanced from the previous original sequence to the dragon sequence will also gain some additional abilities. Because most of the imprinted patterns in the extraordinary core are used to form the ability to float and avoid the cold, there is not much room for improvement in combat. It just has the ability of cold poison.
After the upgrade was completed, Heshia was not surprised that it gained the ability to float, because this was the model she helped select and tutor for the upgrade, but she was a little curious about the cold avoidance that followed.
How afraid of the cold and death are you? The abilities listed were all about life-saving. The girl couldn't help but hold her forehead and shake her head.
In Sequence 2, he gained the ability to feign death and hibernate in order to save his life in extreme situations. Later, he gained the ability to avoid the cold, which eliminated the snake's weakness of being unable to move when its body temperature is too low.
Thinking about the indigo snake she met at Toito Academy, it had a much brighter and more cheerful personality, and its attack power was also extremely strong. After the gem on its forehead condensed its magic power, it could easily cut through steel plates with high-temperature rays.
Because he likes to follow Heshia, this little snake is gradually recognized by the maids in the store. However, when there are customers, Heshia will still hide it to avoid scaring others.
Anducia looked at the little white snake poking its head, and took out the cat food from the drawer on the side and fed it some. This guy was not picky about food, and would basically eat anything that had something to do with meat.
"Speaking of which, what happened to the big spider in the 'Butis' jungle? I heard last month that the injury was slowly getting better." Anducia asked Hesia while comforting the kitten who was wary of the little snake. Condition.
"It, I slowly nursed it back to good health some time ago. Recently, it is happy again, but it is also more disobedient. Every time I go there, I have to be careful that it suddenly falls down and squats on my head." Hirsch Ya said slightly distressed. Since the big spider recovered, it prefers to lie on Hesia's head when she is not paying attention.
"Hahaha, it seems that I like you very much." Anducia covered her mouth and smiled softly.
"Thinking about it this way, Danterian is actually really talented as a trainer. She can do many things that are difficult for ordinary people even before she goes to the academy."
"Does Sister Anducia know much about things related to the 'courtyard'?"
"I know a little bit. There are many 'courtyards' in the Twin Tree Star Territory where I was born. There are even courtyards for cultivating fairy dragons, rare creatures..." She fell into memories.
"Some extraordinary creatures have longer lifespans than humans, so breeders will also use elves with longer lifespans."
"The scales of the fairy dragon, the feathers of the flame-browed parrot, and the scale powder of the guardian moth are all famous local specialties. Some are used in the preparation of extraordinary elixirs, and some are used in some secret medicines for treating diseases. They contain Its extraordinary properties are difficult to produce through mechanical assembly, so the price has always been high."
"The singer's ability not only affects people, but also has a very good effect on appeasing extraordinary creatures. It will indeed be much easier for Danterian to take this path." She said slowly.
"I see." Heshia finally understood why Mrs. Isabel suggested that she go to Yuanting Academy. Not only would this allow her to practice her talent as a singer in advance, but it would also be much easier to have a trainer as her deputy job, saving a lot of energy. .
After communicating with Anducia, Hesia teased the round and cute kitten again before leaving get off work.
Half an hour later, holding a paper bag in her hand, Heshia stopped in front of her house because there were two familiar figures in front of her.
"You?" She looked at the two of them with a little curiosity, because the underground of Payin City has been cleaned up, and most of the people in the underground world have been imprisoned.
"It's us." Blue walked out, and Huck on the side explained.
"The boss couldn't escape at that time, so he asked us to help the eldest lady find the whereabouts of your father." He explained what happened that day and Qiao Long's explanation.
"So that's the case. No wonder you never came to me to get that potion back." Hesia thought thoughtfully.
"Since you guys are looking for me, do you have any clues?"
"We haven't found anything about your father's whereabouts so far. Maybe we have too few contacts. We may have to find another way in the future."
"However, we have some clues about the origins of your parents and some things in the past. I wonder if the eldest lady is interested."
"Well, let's talk about it." The girl walked over, opened her door, and let the two of them sit in the living room for a while.
"Okay." Huck quickly followed and patted Blue.
After the two sat down, Hesia poured tea for them, and then sat across from them and listened carefully.
"Here's what happened..." Huck talked about the recent experience, how he escaped from the underground, then came into contact with some nightclub groups in Payin City, and then got involved.
Night marchers generally refer to people who go out to parade at night. Most of them are empty-hearted and like excitement. They often go to nightclubs, street dances, rock and roll, fights, racing cars, and gatherings for fun. These people like to dress up in strange clothes. They are often asked by the police in cities. Although troublesome elements do not break the law, they are often on the verge of breaking the law.
"After we got to know each other, I asked about an acquaintance in Miss's previous residential area, and then used him to find a retired old man who was a staff member of the residential area where Miss's parents lived..." Listening to Huck's story , the girl has to admire the social and familiarity abilities of this kind of people.
"Then I gradually got to know the old man, and finally got some reminiscence information about some events from that year at the wine table."
"Yeah." The girl nodded slightly.
"I wonder if the eldest lady has heard your parents mention the 'Jielou City' in the North Second District before."
"Jelou City?" The girl shook her head in confusion, having never heard of this name at all.
"Ordinary people may not know this because the Internet there is underdeveloped. Well, they are probably very conservative and traditional, and there is very little news coming out." Huck also only recently learned about the news about 'Jelou City' on the Star Network.
"Jielou means 'exerting a thousand buildings like sails'. It is said that hundreds of years ago, when the North Second District was not in decline, there were many high-rise buildings there, and because the architectural style was biased toward the ancient East, the high-rise buildings with cornices stood one after another like thousands of sails. Crossing the sea, that's why it got the name 'Jielou City'."
Nowadays, human civilization all originated from the earth. Whether it is elves, humans, orcs, or the rare mermaids, etc., each race has formed different cultures during the development. On the ancient earth, because of the separation of the sea, there were different continents in the east and west. culture.
However, in the protracted wars of the Fifth Era, the countries of the Eastern faction were severely damaged, and were later scattered throughout the galaxy. Today, there are Easterners in the Federation of Roses, but their proportion is not large, around 5%-7%.
Listening to Huck's description of the ancient city full of ruins, Heshia slowly recalled the scenes of her childhood. Indeed, her mother was different from the people around her. For example, she could make some types of snacks that were difficult to find on the Star Network. , Oriental-style cuisine is often served at home, and occasionally one or two books with ancient handwriting can be seen.
Oriental-style things are not uncommon in the Federation. For example, the personal terminal in her hand is a product of the 'Mo Yun Workshop', which is famous for its oriental style. But there are very few people like my mother who can actually write oriental characters, read ancient books, play the piano, and know how to cook food.
These are habits and hobbies that are usually developed in that kind of rich environment. Although Heshia was taught those square oriental characters when she was a child and could speak them, she rarely used them in life after all, and was not as good as her mother. So skilled.
However, her mother didn't seem to have the idea of letting her and her sister inherit these things. If the two sisters were interested and asked, she would teach them some. When choosing names, she was also biased towards the mainstream of the federation. She was not the same as herself, and even asked He There should be no surname in Shia's name.
Heshia is her common name, and Tilan is a kind of nickname, or a symbol of sustenance. Because she pays attention to subtlety, she does not directly say her name is Tilan to others. Girls often use Heshiya when introducing themselves, just because they have a good relationship. Only people would call her Tilan.
Is it Jilou City... the girl slowly thought about this name in her heart.
"This is what we know about your mother's information. We may go to 'Jielou City' for detailed investigation before we can take the next step."
"Yes, I understand." The girl nodded slightly.
"But your life is not easy now, so you can put the investigation aside for now." Anyway, nearly 20 years have passed, and it is not less than one or two years.
"Thank you, Miss, for your understanding." Huck nodded quickly. It seemed that this girl was an easy person to get along with.
After sending the two of them away, Heshia returned to the bedroom and continued to look for things left by her parents, but unfortunately she didn't find much. After all, she had lived here for more than ten years, and it was impossible for her to have any hidden objects that she didn't. Know.
"I can only find information about 'Jelou City' on the Internet." The girl closed the drawer full of miscellaneous items, then turned on the personal terminal projection on the side and started to search.
Soon after entering the keyword, a picture and text appeared.
"The lost ancient city of Jilou - do you know the glorious legend from four hundred years ago?"
"'Painted in green and red, armed with cold soldiers, waving flags and dancing' - the night watchman who plays the role of a god general in an ancient city."
"Ignorance or old-fashioned? Those people who have been trapped in ruins and ruined cities all their lives..."
In the picture, abandoned high-rise buildings stand in the diffuse clouds and mist, cold and desolate, but the prosperity and grandeur of the past can still be vaguely seen.
