Continuing to keep vigil through Ravens, the group of long-eyed sand scorpions did not disturb us again, and everything became peaceful.
Art couldn't stand the fatigue caused by the long journey. After eating and drinking, he lay down on the ground and fell asleep. Only Ravens, who was still processing the sand scorpion materials, and Miriam, who closed his eyes to cool down, were still awake.
Ravens is a witcher, so sleeping is not necessary if it is not necessary. Miriam is a doll, and sleeping is something external to the body.
Amidst the sounds of caracara, the two of them were silent, and they didn't know how long it had passed...
"This child is special, can you tell?" Miriam suddenly spoke up and asked Ravens calmly, while looking at the sleeping Art.
At this moment, the sleeping Art is no different from an ordinary child. His still immature face has not yet been stained by the wear and tear of time, but his messy hair is mixed with sand and small pebbles.
"Of course, anyone who has stayed with him for a while will feel this way." Ravens said coldly, as if he had left Miriam aside. He always maintained a certain amount of hatred towards this new puppet, and would not
Treat him well, but not to the point of needing a fight.
"Sometimes his ideas are very mature, and sometimes they are quite childish. I don't even know how to deal with him." Ravens sighed, recalling Art's various previous performances, and felt sad in his heart.
Unspeakable suffering.
But even though I feel so uncomfortable, why on earth do I keep following him?... Could it be that this is what it feels like to be a dad?!
Ravens was about to deny this idea, but suddenly, he remembered something: Art's parents disappeared not long ago, and he has no relatives now! This kid can't think of me as his father in his heart.
Bar?!
Well, he is still just a child, so he may treat me like a father, so he sometimes behaves very childishly in front of me. On the one hand, he started to become stronger after losing his parents, so he behaves very maturely in some aspects.
, such as making money and so on...well, a perfect explanation.
Thinking of this, Ravens smiled and sighed, shaking his head at the sleeping Art with an expression of 'I have seen everything'.
Glancing at Ravens who was intoxicated alone, Miriam said nothing and continued to focus on Art, as if looking at a seedling of hope that was growing vigorously.
…
Green color slowly dyed the earth, and a city full of vitality slowly emerged in front of us.
In the outer ring of Fit City, farmland is one after another, and various farms are scattered everywhere. While closely surrounding the city, wide avenues divide the farmland into four major areas.
First walking on one of the avenues, Art looked around in surprise at the beautiful scenery - for Bielage, this level of scenery was already considered beautiful.
"Then, I'll stop here." Miriam saluted with difficulty, and the parts on his back made a creaking sound.
After a morning's journey, Art and others finally arrived at the outer ring of Fit City, where they had to say goodbye to Miriam.
"Well, I hope we can meet again in the future." Art sighed helplessly. He still had a lot of confusion about Miriam that he wanted to unravel, whether it was about the knowledge of puppet science or the various advanced skills in her body.
How technology components work.
After the exchanges along the way, Art discovered that she was not only disgusted with Fit City, but also all large cities. As for the reason, she kept silent.
To no avail.
"Let's go, let's not waste time. We still have to find a hotel to stay. It's still early, but I guarantee that in a while, there will be so many people here that it will be suffocating!" Ravens looked at Miriam.
He glanced at him, secretly showed him a smile, and then took Art's hand and walked towards the city.
After walking on this avenue between farmland for a while, we came to the outer city of Fit City. Here are some scattered mud huts, which seem to be raising some livestock, and the stench is far away.
The ground floated away, so that Art unnaturally quickened his pace.
No wonder the businessman named Chek said he didn't want to get close to Feite City. It was like a city wall, blocking everyone passing by in the outer ring.
After enduring the stench for about ten minutes, I left the outer city and arrived outside a long city wall.
Speaking of which, for modern people like At, this kind of super-long ring-shaped city wall can basically only be seen in textbooks. I didn’t expect to see it once in my lifetime, so I couldn’t help but stand outside the door and admire it.
.
The material used to build the city wall is very similar to the yellow rock we were familiar with in Bielage before, but it seems to be stronger and neater. It should have gone through more processes than the rough stone bricks before being put into use. After all, this is
City walls are used to protect the city and set up checkpoints, so they must be treated well.
And even though Art and others arrived earlier, there was still a long queue lined up at the door, among which various carriages accounted for the largest share.
"I have a feeling that this city is not suitable for witchers to survive..." Ravens sighed as he looked at the long queue in front of him.
Indeed, a place suitable for the activities of a demon hunter like him should be one where there are not many legal restrictions, the people's living standards are low, and it is easy to be deceived. In such a high-end city, the residents are more or less educated.
, and if anything happens, it will definitely be reported to the police or guards.
"So you need to be calm, friend, and stop killing people randomly." Art sneered softly, trying not to be heard by the people behind him: "Even if you are a robber or something, you have to think carefully about it."
"What's wrong with robbers? Is it illegal to kill robbers anywhere?" Ravens cursed disdainfully and said, "If killing robbers is illegal, who wouldn't be happy to be a robber?"
"But maybe in their eyes, they are the only ones who can judge robbers." Art smiled helplessly and said: "And most robbers have bounties, you can try to beat them until they can't move.
, and then tie them up and bring them to the guards here, which is also an income."
"...Well, that makes sense. It's time for these robbers to make some contribution to me." As he said that, Ravens suddenly began to long for meeting robbers. If you catch one, you can exchange for a sum of money. Although it is a bit risky, but
It is indeed a good way to make money. And this form is very similar to the head bounty common in underground organizations, but there only needs heads, and this one needs living people.
Not long after, as the team slowly advanced, Art finally arrived in front of the city gate.
