Gawain curiously looked at the silver-haired girl in front of him who gave off a "pale" impression. Although he had heard descriptions of the other party from reports before, it was not until he saw it with his own eyes that he truly realized how inhuman the other party was. What exactly is the "heterogeneous feeling": This girl is made up of the purest black and white, with no other colors. This extreme pure color even makes the outline of her face look a bit Blurred, and being stared at by those colorless eyes would probably make most people feel creepy.
This creepy sense of alienation can even make people subconsciously ignore the girl's actually pretty face, as well as the friendly and gentle smile at the corner of her mouth.
But Gawain is well-informed after all. After the initial surprise and curiosity, his attitude immediately calmed down. He knew that the other party's appearance should be influenced by Ms. Ye, the "Master of Light and Shadow", and the other party's appearance The identityis obvious.
"Hello," he smiled, stepped forward and stretched out his hand, "You should be the 'Morning Star' lady mentioned in the report?"
The silver-haired girl seemed startled by Gawain's outstretched hand. She probably didn't expect that the "legendary Emperor Gawain Cecil" would be so approachable. She hesitated before reaching out cautiously, and felt the cold skin. From Gawain's fingertips: "Hello."
Amber finally reacted at this time. She first looked at the girl in front of her in surprise, and then the corresponding memories appeared in her mind. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's you! I remember! I was here before I have been dealing with you while wandering around the city - there are many people similar to you!"
"Yes, that's exactly us, but what you were wandering in the city at that time was just a projection between reality and illusion," the girl Morning Star said with a smile, "The 'anchor' had not fully taken effect at that time, but you had already arrived The border of the kingdom of God is at a critical stage of being disintegrated from the real world at any time, so the lady temporarily blocked part of your self-understanding and memory, allowing you to live in the city for a period of time. I'm sorry, but in order for the anchoring process to go smoothly, We have been hiding the truth from you.¡±
"It's not in the way, it's not in the way," Amber immediately waved her hands nonchalantly, with a happy look on her face, "It was quite interesting to recall that experience, and you also took good care of me. I had food, drink and shelter. place¡¡"
As she spoke, her eyes swept across the chest of Chenxing's black cloak. Her eyes stayed on the silver-white emblem. After a moment of silence, she said softly: "The emblem of the Military Intelligence Agency Although I probably I can guess what happened, but I still want to hear you tell me personally - who is Silver-Eyed Cloade to you?"
"He is my great-grandfather," Morningstar smiled lightly, "and the founder of the Shadow Affairs Division of the Military Intelligence Agency - he passed away more than ten years ago, and my father and grandfather took over his responsibility in the early years. 'Inheritance' Nowadays, most of the Military Intelligence agents in Night City are the 'Fourth Generation' like me or the earlier 'Third Generation'. You may think my appearance is a bit strange This is proof that Generations 3 and 4 have completely completed Shadow Affinity."
Amber opened her mouth and scratched her hair in embarrassment: "Actually, it's not that strange although I was really surprised when I saw it for the first time."
Chenxing just smiled carelessly, and then took half a step back slightly, pointing to the entrance of the night city: "Please follow me, I will take you through this city located on the border between the Kingdom of God and the real world. Director Amber, after this, you will be the real mistress of this city. In addition, I will also introduce you to the situation here on the road. The lost people and their descendants have been living in this world for a hundred years. Here are There¡¯s a lot¡ worth seeing.¡±
¡¡
The City of Night, as its name suggests, seems to be always covered with a dark and unclear sky of chaos, maintaining a contradictory state where it seems as if it has entered the night, but there is still a faint light illuminating the streets.
This is completely different from the desert surrounding Lady Night's throne that is always illuminated by pale skylight.
But even if it is forever shrouded in such a dim sky, even if the entire city seems to be just a weird and gloomy silhouette from a distance, the streets of this "city of night" are actually far more beautiful than Gawain imagined "Busty and lively".
Because there are residents in this city, and there are countless residents.
In the mist, row upon row of houses lined up along the street. From a distance, many of the houses seemed to be stacked up against geometric principles. Their topsy-turvy exterior walls even made it difficult to accurately determine the orientation of doors and windows. On both sides of the road, There are also simple and elegant street lamps extending into the distance. The crystal lampshades at the top of the street lamps sway pale??? and dealing with the Shadow Dwellers on behalf of the Descendants of the Lost.
"Over the past century, we have formed a good 'neighborhood relationship' with the indigenous people here, and learned a lot from the shadow dwellers about the Shadow Realm, about ancient civilizations, and even about the conflict between Lady Night and the Counter Tide. History - Although the Shadow Dwellers have been wandering blindly for the past hundreds of thousands of years, most of them still remember what happened during their wanderings, and some were originally residents of the Violet Kingdom, and they know many things that are unknown to others. History."
¡°Then she paused and raised her hand to point in another direction: ¡°Go left at the crossroads ahead, and then pass two blocks away, which is where the descendants of the Typhons live.¡±
"Typhon?!" Gawain stopped in surprise, but then he realized - yes, of course there will be descendants of the Typhons here!
When the dream of the Violet Kingdom suddenly disappeared, the "strangers" swallowed by the fog were not only the operators sent by Cecil and transnational businessmen, but also a large number of Typhon merchants and their own intelligence personnel who were stranded on the Violet Island during the same period. It wasn't even just Typhon. Those who dealt with Violet at that time were also gray elf traders from Mosswood, apprentices sent by the Northern City-State Federation to learn, and travelers who crossed the strait in their own name!
It is true that the Violet Kingdom was a secluded country back then, but only its core area was subject to a strict blockade policy. Its border cities were still open to the Loren continent. Under such limited opening, those who were stranded in the Violet Mist were A lot of people!
To Ms. Ye, there is no difference between Cecil, the Typhons, and the Augureites. Since He took action and left behind Silver-Eyed Cloade and his party, then for the other "lost people" who also entered the Kingdom of Shadow ¡Of course He will treat everyone equally.
"Yesof course there will be Typhons," Gawain breathed out softly, with a curious expression on his face, "Then what's their situation now?"
"Their leader is Viscount Herborn Raven, a very capable leader. As far as I know, the grandfather of Viscount Herborn Raven is named Dante Raven. "A soldier," Chenxing nodded, "We don't know much about the 'outside world'. All the information comes from our ancestors and fathers. However, considering that the 'outside world' has not experienced a century like Night City, Time has changed, so the information we know shouldn¡¯t be outdated, right?¡±
Gawain looked thoughtfully at Amber beside him, who nodded after thinking for a moment: "Dante Raven, a Typhon soldier, has a cousin named Mariano Raven. This Marianne Miss Nu was one of the first batch of Typhon scholars to study in Cecil."
"Mariannu Raven" Gawain thought for a moment and recalled, "Oh, I personally signed the graduation certificates of those special batch of Typhon international students. I remember this name."
"It seems that Miss Mariano's cousin is also one of the people who disappeared in the Violet Mist incident, and his descendants have now become the leaders of the Typhons in this night city" Gawain said, unable to help but feel She sighed in her heart, "To people outside, the disappearance of relatives is just something that happened not long ago, but in this night city, everything is history a century ago."
"It seems that we will have to do some handover work in the future," Amber said thoughtfully, "There are not only our people in this city, but also the descendants of the lost from various countries. For those who lost their loved ones in the Violet Mist Incident, For people who know the news, the news we bring outis very precious."
Gawain nodded.
Compared with the coming demon tide and the Ragnarok plan, this is not a big deal, but for those who are closely involved, these things must be taken care of.
Morning Star turned his head and pointed to the other side of the block.
¡°That side is a neighborhood jointly established by the descendants of the lost people of the Ogure tribe and the descendants of the northern city-state. Most of the outstanding craftsmen and brewers are concentrated there. They have a wide network of contacts and are also very popular among the shadow residents
"Four blocks away from here, there is a large residential area called the 'Grand Bazaar'. Most of the people living there are descendants of adventurers and independent merchants, and some of their ancestors are scholars or free mercenaries. The atmosphere of the big market is relaxed and there are many entertainment venues. Even the shadow residents often go there to spend time.
"In addition, there are some sporadic settlements between these blocks, most of which have gradually appeared in the past hundred years After such a long time, in fact, the descendants of the original group of lost people have already Great changes have taken place, and some people no longer care much about the 'inheritance' and 'admonitions' left by their ancestors, but overall, everyone gets along pretty well now"
Listening to Morning Star¡¯s narration, Gawain suddenly sighed softly: ¡°A hundred years of vicissitudes of life¡±
"Yes, Your Majesty," Chenxing was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "A hundred years of vicissitudes of life."
