Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

The place where outsiders are accommodated is some distance away from the activities of Chaoyang City residents. This is to allow guests to have a restful environment and to ensure adequate safety for residents.

When Dazhberg was concentrating on research, Saslier was basically focusing on the city, just like observing a sapling rooted in a barren land, only watering, pruning, and driving away when necessary. Walk away the pests and wait for time to uplift its branches and leaves.

As Abram walked through the woods, the eyes of Leodro and others frequently fell on that strange little bird.

"This is Zoya," Abram saw that Leodro's eyes were very complicated and took the initiative to introduce him, "Zoya also came some time ago, and often followed the Lord's half or Ourolius. He is the Lord’s—”

Abram paused. He really didn’t know what the relationship between Zoya and the Lord was. The Lord didn’t seem to need translation...

Leodro's focus was different: "Did you just say, Him?"

Skylark tilted his head, and there was no emotion in his pale eyes: "According to your knowledge, yes, but it does not belong to any 'race' in your knowledge."

Leodro couldn't help but lower his voice: "Sorry, I didn't mean to offend you."

Zoya felt a little confused by his reaction. She didn't remember any radical behavior by the man, and the two didn't even say a few words.

But He wouldn't think about it carefully. Zoya just shook her head: "You didn't offend me."

The gravel road between the woods finally came to an end, leading to a flat, wide street paved with large rectangular stone slabs.

Such a street is enough for a single Cyclops to walk through, and it is not much narrower than the undersea city of the elves. After all, elves are not a race known for their tall stature. Their body proportions are quite close to humans.

Leodro couldn't help but breathe softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing something, while Abram happily rushed forward and spread his arms, his smile was bright and inspiring:

"Welcome to Chaoyang City!"

This was the Elvish language that Abram spoke most fluently. It seemed that he had practiced it many times in private.

Leodro didn't give much response. He had been looking at the sunlit city curiously.

"It's morning now, so there will be a market in the main street square, we can go and have a look." At this point, Abram hesitated for two seconds, "If you have something you want very much, you can tell me and I will Make a note of it. If it's not too expensive, we can buy it for you. We have some preferential treatment for 'guests'.

"Or when you settle here and find a job, you can save up for a period of time to buy it yourself. That will make more sense to you. But you may have to learn our language first, which is based on Giant language. It will be more meaningful for you. Said it might take some time."

Zoya translated all these words to the rest of the people. They looked at each other in confusion until the boy who kept shaking his arms came to the leader and asked in a low voice: "Looking for a job means, will we have a new master?"

His voice was very soft, but Zoya could hear it clearly. He glanced at the young man and stuffed the content of these words directly into Abram's head.

Abram frowned, then smiled and shook his head at the young man: "There are no 'masters' and 'slaves' here, everyone is the same. The Lord calls us free, and we are free. We stand on our own feet. Earth, go our own way.”

Skylark translated these words, but these tortured refugees felt even more confused. Perhaps only Leodro already had a goal, and he had a guess in his mind as to why the Lord was only willing to name himself a person - a shepherd's hound, a shepherd's staff.

As for whether the speculation in his heart was true or false, Leodro did not dare to ask.

There was always a sigh of relief in his heart, but his reason suppressed the violent emotions.

Abram was accompanied by a very "professional" translator, and the most troublesome language problem was solved, which made him praise Lord Saslier again in his heart.

Abram had already regarded this skylark as some kind of messenger trained by Sasril.

Chaoyang City's orderly layout allowed Leodro to get a glimpse of the city's orderly planning behind the scenes, which even left room for further development. They saw several busy construction projects along the way.

"We have new friends arriving almost every day. Some are similar to you, and some are old friends of some of us." Abram whispered, and he did not take everyone away in a hurry. Instead, he accompanied them and listened to the "ding, clang, clang, clang" sound of the hammer, with unspeakable pride on his face.

The young man's eyesight was very sharp, and he saw several craftsmen carrying stones with one hand: "They don't seem to be ordinary people..."

Abram smiled and winked at him: "Of course, we don't count."

"Then if, I mean if, we join -" The boy's eyes became brighter and brighter, but he stopped talking and blushed because of the greed he showed.

Abram nodded and shook his head: "It depends on the situation. Lord Saslier and the War Legion have conducted corresponding inspections. We need not only combatants, but also a lot of help in daily life. After all, everything here is Just getting started.”

Along the way, as the young man behind Leodro actively asked questions, Abram gradually had further interactions with these people. They learned about the time when this city was established, and how it was so blank that there was not much to tell about it. History background.

These special visitors were surprised that the age of this settlement was shorter than that of the youngest boy among them.

This may be why everyone in this city has a vague hope on their face. Those who look over out of curiosity are wary and have friendly smiles expressing welcome.

Fortunately, both parties had the same meaning in terms of smiles. Abram couldn't help but have this weird idea. If either party felt that the smiling expression represented provocation, it would be too easy to start a fight.

As if to confirm his idea, a red-haired boy swayed past the street corner, showing a smile that was always sarcastic and seemed to attract people to fight with him at any time. Next to the red-haired boy, There was also another silvery figure following.

Abram recognized that it was Medici and Ourolius, so he subconsciously turned in a direction and led Leodro and others into an alley.

However, Leodro couldn't help but glance at the original road. He felt that the two people looked familiar. They seemed to be the strange people he had seen when he arrived on the first day.

Leodero followed Abram and asked, "Are you afraid of them?"

Abram was slightly embarrassed by such an overly straightforward questioning method: "No, no, I'm not afraid of them, yes, I just respect them. The red-haired one is Lord Medici, the one in white robes It's Lord Ourolyus, they are all beings born with special abilities, they are not human beings."

Hearing Abram's introduction, the young man seemed very surprised: "Then they were originally like sea monsters or dragons?"

"Probably, to be honest, I haven't seen what they looked like before." Abram replied uncertainly.

What Leodro wants to know is more detailed information: "So they are not human and can still move freely in this town."

"Of course, they are all followers of the Lord, and they are quite close to the Lord and can serve the Lord... I actually envy them. I am still too weak. My mother does not agree with me joining the war legion."

Abram's smile was a bit forced, so he quickly changed the subject and explained to a few people Chaoyang City's "public facilities" - Abram said that this word was also invented by the Lord, which refers to the fact that as long as urban residents comply with According to regulations, a place where you can enter and exit at will, such as a "healing home" dedicated to patients.

"Your soups and medicines are basically served from there." Abram pointed in a certain direction, "But the distance there is a bit far. We have to go through the market to get there."

They had been walking for quite some time. As the crowds of passers-by around them became more and more dense, Leodro realized that they had unknowingly arrived at the edge of the square where a huge stone was erected.

"This is a market. Most of the people selling things will stay until night before going home to eat. The stalls are not fixed, so the things sold are different every day."

The market was very lively, and even if a group of people like Leodoro were thrown in, they would become inconspicuous due to the excessive flow of people.

Even the middle-aged man who always had a gloomy face couldn't help but be attracted by the things sold by the vendors. They communicated in low voices and pointed at the things placed on the simple wooden boards from time to time, looking full of curiosity and curiosity. eager.

The young man squatted next to a wrinkled woman, playing with a bone flute she showed in her hand. The woman explained to him in a low voice, but the young man could not understand, so he could only nod frequently and reluctantly. Stroking the cool piccolo.

Leodro was observing the things sold here and the people buying and selling things. He suddenly discovered that the vitality he felt in people like Abram could be seen everywhere in this city.

Even those with scarred faces and bodies, wrinkles or scars on their faces cannot hide the smiles that come from the heart.

Leodro thought about whether there were any hidden dangers, and observed silently with a straight face.

If the price of staying here is only to believe in their Lord, then everyone will be willing to stay. Even if they know there may be any traps behind it... they cannot refuse such a sweet temptation.

Abram walked past a girl guarding a weaving basket, raised his hand and threw something over, and Leodro caught it quickly.

"Try the dried plums. I'm afraid you won't be able to eat them anywhere else outside of Chaoyang City." Abram said with a smile, and distributed the handful of dark, shriveled fruits in his hand to everyone.

Leodro hesitated before stuffing the thing into his mouth.

It was too sweet and he didn't really like it.

But listening to other people exclaiming about this, Leodro smiled a little.
