C45 His Heartbeat Accelerated!
The moment he saw the city, he remembered the feeling of hot baths. That kind of comfort that penetrated deep into his bone marrow made Jiang Loong miss it very much.
Moreover, listening to the noise of the city and getting in touch with other humans in this era was also very necessary.
After getting closer to Base City, Jiang Loong put Tongtong and Ke'er into his spatial zone.
After all, it was the end of the world. Beautiful women were the source of trouble at this time. Jiang Loong did not want others to steal Tongtong and Ke'er, nor did he want to cause unnecessary trouble. After all, trouble was really troublesome!
He just wanted to find a place to take a hot shower and then lie on the soft bed that belonged to humans and sleep.
At the entrance of Base City, a few guards with machine guns saw Jiang Loong walking over. Then they stood in front of him and stopped him. The other one walked to the opposite side. Do you have an identity card?" ___ asked. If you don't have one, then according to the usual practice, you have to pay 2,000 grams of food to enter the Base City as a city entrance fee."
One would need 2,000 grams of food to enter the ___. Wasn't this the typical example of relying on the mountain to eat? What, wouldn't it be fun to guard the door and not eat it?
Jiang Loong couldn't be bothered with this kind of person. He raised his hand and lightning crackled on his fingertips.
"Awakener?"
The guards were shocked.
If he knew the extraordinary talent, it would be an Awakener at the very least. If he couldn't protect it, he would even use the Evolver. When this man saw them stop him, he didn't panic at all.
"Hahahaha, alright. Since you are an Awakener, then there is no need to eat 2000 grams of food. This is the Willow City, we welcome you here."
The guard who stopped him first had a quick expression on his face. Immediately, he spoke in a different tone and face.
Jiang Loong didn't say much. He nodded and walked into the city.
"This person's aura is really terrifying."
Another guard said after Jiang Loong had walked far away.
"Luckily, we didn't do anything else. The entry fee is an unspoken rule in every Base City. Otherwise, where would we get so much money? Last time, he stopped an Evolver and revealed the extraordinary talent. We will kneel down and apologize, but we won't let this matter rest. Luckily, this person had a good temper and didn't get angry. He probably just doesn't care about us little ants. This kind of person is the most terrifying. His realm must be very high. What kind of big shot is he?"
This was the guard who said "welcome" to Jiang Loong.
Their eyes were fixed on Jiang Loong's back. As he walked further and further away, they felt that Jiang Loong was taller and stronger. The more they looked at him, the more they felt that Jiang Loong's strength was unfathomable.
...
"Please give me a suite. I still need two hours of hot water."
Jiang Loong took out a box of food from his storage space and placed it on the front desk.
In the post-apocalyptic world, food played a good role as money.
There were also hotels in Base City, but there weren't many of them. These were used to entertain passing Awakener and Evolver, so the environment was naturally better.
Of course, the cost of these hotels was also very expensive. Only Awakener or Evolver could afford to stay in these hotels.
The boss saw the boxes on the table. After inspecting them, he put them away and took out a key to pass to Jiang Loong.
Jiang Loong took it and went to the third floor. He found the room and opened the door.
This was a suite with two rooms and one living room.
After Jiang Loong entered the room, he did not rush to let Tongtong and Ke'er out. Instead, he carefully checked the room and found that there were no problems before calling the two girls out.
"Tongtong, Ke'er, we can take a hot shower today!"
Jiang Loong pulled open the curtain of the bathroom and saw the hot water coming out from the nozzle. A warm steam immediately rose in the room.
This was the universal enjoyment in the post-apocalyptic world!
After all, in the huge Base City, there were so many humans. There were only a few who could take a hot bath once a year.
"Tongtong, come here. I'll help you take a bath."
Jiang Loong waved at Tongtong.
He did not know why he put Ke'er behind him.
Tongtong quickly finished bathing. Jiang Loong carefully helped her put on her clothes.
After that was Ke'er.
"Tongtong, you have to be good. Just wait in the living room for a while."
Jiang Loong asked Tongtong to wait outside before turning his head to look at Ke'er.
He suddenly felt that his mouth was parched and his mouth was dry. He could not help but swallow a few words. His heart suddenly sped up uncontrollably.
...
After Jiang Loong entered the Base City.
A group of people appeared on top of the mountain where the Red Castle was located.
They searched for a long time in the ruins of the Red Castle, and only left after half a day.
In a large scale Base City, in a thirty-story building.
In this era, thirty-story buildings were rare. Most of them had turned into ruins, or they still existed. It had also become a dangerous building, but this building... It looked as if it had just been built, and its exterior looked very new.
In one of the rooms at the highest point of the building, a young man was standing by the window with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance.
"Eldest Young Master, there's new news!"
Suddenly, a person walked into the room and whispered into the young man's ear.
"Lei Nu must be dead."
The young man turned around and said to the few people sitting beside him.
"But we didn't find any trace of the murderer. Even Mr. Hwa could only use his tracking extraordinary talent to obtain the slightest bit of information about a One Star. These clues point to Heaven Seeking Academy."
The young man summarized the information he just obtained and said slowly.
"Ah, my poor child!"
Hearing this, one of the old ladies suddenly let out a big cry.
"Cry? Stop crying, what's the use of crying? In this era, it's hard to say who dies first and who dies later. It was Lei Nu's turn this time! He was playful and did not work hard. It was because he was not powerful enough! Lei Kuang was already a Rank 7, and he was only one year younger than Lei Kuang. And he was still a Rank 5? How many years had it been?! It's all your fault! If you ask me, you deserve it!"
Standing next to the old woman was the old man he thought she was. He suddenly stood up and said with a cold snort.
At this moment, the young man respectfully bowed to him. He said, "Grandfather, in the Martial Cultivator Alliance, although the Heaven Seeking Palace is at the bottom, although we are from the Lei family, our strength is not weak. But if we can really get rid of them all at once, it'll still be a bit of a hassle."
"Lei Kuang, they are giving us a chance!"
The old man stood in the same spot and pondered for a moment. There was not a trace of sadness on his face, as if he was mourning Lei Nu's death.
"Heaven Seeking Palace has always been against the Lei family. It's time to punish them. I haven't found the right time, but now, they dare to kill my grandson. This revenge must be avenged! However, he had to think about it carefully. How are we going to take revenge?!"
