1081 Remained Clearheaded Despite All The Allure (2)
“Yeah.”
After bidding farewell to Di Wu, Naris left with Yu Huang and the others.
Five Lake Street was where the miners lived. This area was actually an industrial area for mining. Although the ores in their tricycles were crystal clear, these ores were actually buried under the black coal mine in the beginning. When these ores were first mined, they were also wrapped in a layer of black ash.
The miners needed to send the dirty ores to the mining room at the end of Five Lake Street. After washing them, they would transport the clean ores to the ore concentration camp on the street and use the cargo hovercar to transport them to other places in the Cang Lang Continent.
!!
Those n.o.ble pharmacists and refiners would not use their precious hands to touch the pitch-black ore.
Therefore, the streets of Five Lake Street were always filled with a layer of black dust.
Sensing the black mine ash in the air, Lin Jiansheng frowned and said, “This place is not suitable for children to live in.”
Yu Huang nodded and said, “If Ah Kong can get accepted to school, we can rent a house there.”
“Yeah.”
This was not the best way to save money.
Naris took out a few masks and handed them to them. “Put on your masks. This street is very long. Without masks, everyone’s faces will be dirty before we reach the end of the street.” This was also why the residents on the street loved to wear black down jackets.
Black was really resistant to dirt.
During working hours, everyone wore black clothes and masks. Naris was not eye-catching in the crowd.
But when they reached the end of the street, a young man suddenly stopped Naris. “Naris?”
Naris, Yu Huang, and the others stopped.
Naris looked in the direction of the voice and saw a twelve to thirteen-year-old youth. The youth was also wearing a short black down jacket and carrying a bag on his back. It seemed like he was going to school.
Naris stared at the young man’s face and narrowed her eyes.
The youth suddenly made a face at Naris, then shouted with an expression that seemed as if he had seen a ghost, “Mom! That monster at the end of the street, Naris, is out!”
Hearing this, the families living at the end of the street ran out of their houses and sized up Naris with dismay.
Seeing this, Yu Huang was enraged.
However, Naris held Yu Huang’s arm and told her in a low voice, “It’s that child.”
Yu Huang frowned and stared at the youth’s back as he ran away. She said, “The child who was frightened by you back then?”
“Yeah.”
Naris held Yu Huang’s hand and continued walking forward. As they walked, she said, “The street is relatively clean. Most of the people living here are merchants sent by the city to buy ores. That child’s parents are merchants. The miners on the street rely on mining for a living, so if the ores can’t be sold, the profession of miner will cease to exist.”
In other words, Naris was telling Yu Huang not to offend the child’s parents for her sake, since that would cause many miners to lose their jobs.
Yu Huang took a deep breath and said angrily, “Sooner or later, I’ll buy this street and become the boss of Five Lakes Street!”
Hearing this, Naris only smiled.
Regardless of whether Yu Huang could become the boss of this street, Naris was still happy that Yu Huang cared so much about her feelings.
Sheng Xiao looked at Yu Huang thoughtfully.
Purchasing Five Lakes Street and becoming the boss here?
If this was really one of her goals, Sheng Xiao would help Yu Huang achieve it.
Although Five Lake Street was called a street, it was actually the size of a prefecture on the Holy Spirit Continent. There was a transportation vehicle that looked like a bus parked on the street. Naris took out a pa.s.s and said to Yu Huang and the others, “This is a transportation vehicle. It doesn’t cost anything to take, but you need to swipe your ident.i.ty card.”
Naris’ pa.s.s was her ident.i.ty card. It was a very ordinary citizen card.
As Yu Huang stared at her citizen card, her heart ached again.
Anna was clearly a Beast Tamer. What danger had she encountered in the abyss rift? Now, she was no longer even a Beast Tamer.
Naris got into the bus. Seeing that Yu Huang and the others were still standing outside the car in a daze, she urged her, “Yu Huang, swipe your ident.i.ty card.”
“Alright.” Yu Huang was the first to get on the bus. She placed her arm on the bus identification table. The bus identification card device beeped, then a female robotic voice sounded—
“Honorable S-rank Beast Tamer, welcome to Central Continent’s Route 179 bus. I’m very happy to serve you.”
Hearing this, the pa.s.sengers on the bus raised their heads and looked at Yu Huang at the same time. Their gazes were filled with disbelief.
Why would an S-rank Beast Tamer come to the slums of the Central Continent?
However, when Sheng Xiao, Lin Jiansheng, and the others approached the identification table, the robotic female voice repeated the same greeting twice. Everyone in the car looked at them with respect and caution.
The residents who had recognized Naris looked at her strangely.
When did Mr. Di’s daughter get to know such a group of people?
Naris brought Yu Huang and the others to find a seat. Just as they fastened their seatbelts, the bus flew into the air and jumped over the city.
Yu Huang was shocked and thought to herself, “As expected of a super big world. Even the buses here can fly.”
Not only could it fly, but it was also free.
This benefit was quite convenient.
With that thought, Yu Huang heard Sheng Xiao say, “Look outside.”
Yu Huang subconsciously turned her head to look out the window and saw tall buildings rising from the ground. There were even a few buildings floating in the air. The bus they were on was nimbly shuttling through the middle of those houses.
Soon, the bus landed on an air platform and reminded them that they could get off.
After Yu Huang and the others alighted from the bus, they discovered that they were in a parking lot. There were many buses parked nearby. They followed Naris out of the bus stop and arrived at a spinning platform. Naris told them, “After you guys go down from the spinning platform and take the high-alt.i.tude ladder, you will reach the Nine G.o.ds District.”
Yu Huang and the others silently followed Naris from the spinning platform to the bottom of the building. Then, they queued up to enter the elevator. The elevator was like a movie theater with more than 200 seats. The elevator came every ten minutes.
After Yu Huang and the others found a seat and sat down, the elevator suddenly sank.
“Ah!”
Ah Kong was so frightened that he hugged Lin Jiansheng’s neck tightly.
Lin Jiansheng was also so frightened that he grabbed the armrest tightly.
In order not to embarra.s.s themselves, Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao grabbed each other’s hands and gritted their teeth.
But their hearts were racing.
As she sank, Yu Huang suddenly thought of her father, Yin Mingjue.
His father had lived in the Cang Lang Continent for more than a hundred years. He had seen all the prosperity of the Cang Lang Continent. When he decided to return to the Holy Spirit Continent to give back to his hometown, did he really not hesitate at all?
Perhaps he had also been enthralled by the prosperity and advanced technology of the Cang Lang Continent.
But he remained clearheaded despite all the allure.
