The mechanical watch on the wrist showed that the current time was only about 5:30 in the afternoon. The climate was in the early summer in the Gerun Oasis area, and the sun should be strong above the head at this time. But when Cassia and the others called to blockade
When I opened the steel cover of the underground waterway, no unexpected light shone in. In other words, except for Gustin, the other four people looked like they understood it.
There was a moderate wind outside, which was the most suitable level for Cassia and the others. It blew thousands of miles from the other side of Moon Lake, bringing with it enough moist water vapor and a fresh smell. It felt like
Comfortably cold. The only thing lacking is the lack of suitable light. The sky is a tumbling lead-colored cloud that hangs upside down from the stormy sea surface at night. Power is accumulating in it, and it has reached the edge of erupting. The clouds are leaving
The ground is very close, as if you can touch it. There is obviously the same oppressive feeling in the air as in the underground mine tunnel, but it does not seem dull, but it just makes people feel unhappy. The sunlight is the fault that is gathered by these
The clouds blocked it all.
It’s half past five, and it’s already the color of dusk, which is about to end.
"It seems that the black dust storm must be waiting for us to come out. You are such a patient guy." Kara took a deep breath, as if she wanted to let out all the stuffy air that had accumulated in her chest these days, and then took a few deep breaths.
Completed the entire exchange of air in the lungs.
Kristians was also affected by Kara's movements, but his movements were obviously not as exaggerated as Kara's. He just sighed slightly and then said: "But it's okay, the black dust storm just happened to help us a lot, blocking the current
There are almost all possibilities and routes out of the Green Oasis. A black dust storm may come at any time. Whether it is a full moon night or not, crossing the desert now is definitely an act of seeking death. Originally, leaving the desert can only be done after the black dust storm has passed, but at this time
An imperial merchant ship happened to come, and it was a very standard cruiser class. So,,,"
"So Nolida and the others who are anxious to leave will definitely take this merchant ship. As for us standing in the dark, we only need to wait at the merchant ship." Gustin also sorted out the threads in his head and said
, "This is what Mr. Cassia can understand when he says it."
He glanced at Cassia and expressed his admiration.
Cassia smiled dryly, this is just an inevitable conclusion drawn from the combination of all conditions. Among the several conditions, each one is indispensable. It’s just that Cassia calculated better, estimating the arrival time of the black dust storm, and the merchant ships
The number of days we stayed here is more accurate.
The entrance is on the edge of a lonely street, but it is still in the port area. There are not many pedestrians on the road, and the edges are all connected with gray warehouses, which is very deserted.
The street lamps are now in use, and the lights have become dim. In the stressful air, the insects no longer chirp in detail, and the flying insects no longer come out to chase after seeing the lights that attract them. The originally bustling port area, I don’t know what is inside
How many people stay underground forever?
They returned to the dilapidated house they rented before going to the underground mine tunnels for the second time.
The place is still the same as when I left, and even the air in the house seems to have not changed. The smell is still the same. Only the land in front of the house is barely tidied, and the grass in the wild meadow in front seems to be growing again.
More than a slap taller.
There is still some wine left in the cupboard, there is also juice, and the food is not bad. Gustin can't put it down. They are all high-end goods moved from the car of Sunault's student. They are not cheap. They even have weapons.
There is only the last bit of equipment left, enough for everyone to barely equip it. Now the number of people they have to deal with has become single digits. With a little luck, single digit bullets can solve it. And sometimes
There is no need for bullets yet.
"Oh, what a luxury." Gustin and Kristens each drank a glass of fragrant wine, their faces became a little rosy, and they praised the deliciousness of the wine.
Cassia drank half a glass of juice, smelled the strong smell in the air, and smiled without saying anything. The surgeon's physique is already immune to alcohol. No matter how much he drinks, it will only slightly stimulate the beating speed of the heart.
It's just speeding up, and it won't make them drunk like ordinary people. It's just that he really doesn't like the spicy throat feeling, or he simply hasn't discovered the delicious side of wine yet.
Guessing that it was almost time, Cassia glanced at the mechanical watch, which showed that it was only a few minutes away from eight o'clock in the evening. He stood up and said to Li and the others: "The time is just right. I just took a nap not long ago. Now it's time to change."
You guys can rest here. I'm going to the city center and I have some things to do. Before entering the underground mine tunnel, I asked someone to help us buy boat tickets, which will come in handy now."
"What good news." Li responded, "While you were sleeping, we were still discussing where we were going to rob a few businessmen or officials and nobles here to get some money for capital and turnover.
The following plan. Now that the merchant ship matters have all been settled, there is no need for us to do unnecessary things."
Several other people agreed, "After finishing the Nolida matter, we can just take a merchant ship to leave the Gerun Oasis. After that, it will be much easier to return to Manoma."
"Cassia, remember to say thank you when you go back." Carla unexpectedly said such a sentence from the light in the house when Cassia had stepped out of the wooden door of the house. David helped them a lot, although they were all
It’s a trivial matter, but the money spent on buying the ferry ticket is enough for them to express their sincere gratitude.
"I know." Cassia waved her hand and disappeared into the night.
Because the only car was Sunolte's limo with no tires. And regardless of the quality of the car, the current situation did not allow Cassia to drive out, which would most likely expose the fact that several of them were still alive.
So he could only run over on foot.
This is the outskirts of the city, some distance from the city center, but not far.
There are no steam limousines on the solid road, only street lamps standing silently on both sides, as quiet as frozen branches in the cold winter. Normally at this time, there would be some flamboyant mercenaries driving wildly in their cars, but now they have all become corpse.
It took more than an hour for Cassia to enter the center of the city. The monotonous white light turned into colorful gas lights and neon lights, and the lively atmosphere did not weaken at all. The night life of the city had begun, and the black dust storm was coming. It didn't affect them at all. On the contrary, the constant refreshing atmosphere every day made people in the city more willing to go out and explore the world under the lights. The room was air-conditioned, but a little stuffy. Outside, they could also go to the pub. Drink some wine.
Cassia patted her clothes at a dark corner of the street. There were some wrinkles on the dried clothes, but luckily they did not carry the fishy smell of the water and the smell of decay. She made sure that her clothes were basically acceptable, then she wiped her hair and combed it. Understand that it won’t be a mess. Cassia is going to a jewelry store. At least she can’t let all the customers in David’s shop hold their noses and leave because of herself. Cassia can still do what she can. Pay attention where possible.
After turning the corner, you can see the jewelry store owned by David in front of you. The colorful signboard is shining, and the artistic imperial characters made of mahogany are fixed on it with rivets. Pedestrians are coming and going on the street in front. .Accurate business vision, this is a busy area.
Cassia walked through the crowd under the lights with a smile. But the smile immediately disappeared from her serious face the next moment.
David's shop seemed to have become an isolated island in the current, and people were involuntarily avoiding it at this time. Even if they were walking in front of the shop, pedestrians would definitely speed up and hurriedly leave the place that seemed to have changed. Things. Compared with the surrounding shops, it indeed became out of place at this time.
Cassia's face turned cold again, and the happy and gentle brilliance in his eyes disappeared after a blink of an eye. He was also incompatible with the pedestrians around him. It was a ferocious wolf with gray and black fur mixed in among the white sheep.
In front of David's shop, there have been two guys in black suits, muscular, chatting with each other.
