[Oh, right...]
[If Lamia really recovers but her mory is damaged and she doesn’t rember anything about , then... Ah You, don’t tell her anything about ]
[This child has led a hard life. Ever since she was old enough to rember, she’s been following through battles, never having a single good day, nor enjoying a normal childhood]
[So, if she can be reborn, I hope she can let go of all her identities and the shackles that bind her, to happily enjoy life]
[And you, the sa goes for you, Ah You]
[Although I’ve always demanded that you take on responsibilities, forcing you into a leadership position, I know deep down you don’t crave the title; you just genuinely want to save people, to help fulfill my wishes... I did it only to give you a goal to live for, I never intended to use it to restrain you]
[If you feel tired, feel annoyed, then follow your heart and rest, you and Lamia both deserve a beautiful life; it’s what you deserve]
[Goodbye, Ah You, take care]
[Your ntor, Elrond Gold]
Staring at the words in the letter, Yun You silently took out the letter, and indeed at the bottom of the box, she found a finger bone glowing with a faint white light.
Without a doubt, this was the Saint’s Remains that strong contenders had been desperately searching for, the only key to the path of the True God.
Jing ultimately left it for Yun You.
The little girl was silent for a long while, finally sighing softly and shaking her head.
Every word of the ntor was filled with worries and instructions for the future.
He was always thinking about how to make life better for those around him, but never considered himself.
How could Yun You ignore his request?
"Let’s go, little... Lamia."
Yun You put away the finger bone and did not use it imdiately.
She had not yet broken through to Tier Six, so she naturally couldn’t absorb the Initial Sequence.
Even if she did, she didn’t know whether she should absorb it or not.
The lure of the True God Realm was imnse, but whether the cost of life was worth it was debatable.
Temporarily, Yun You had no desire to beco a True God; the urgent task at hand was to find Akas and figure out how to restore Lamia to normal.
Jing ntioned Akas’s current residence in the letter, a certain underground research station in the Lower District of Nest City No. 4, not far from Nest City No. 3, a little over an hour’s walk for Yun You.
Currently, because of Yun You’s attack on the headquarters of the Equality Association, Nest City No. 3 was under a semi-lockdown state. The number of checkpoints and surveillance had multiplied, and the neighboring cities were also tightening security. If no action was taken soon, breaking through later might beco even more troubleso.
Of course, Yun You was not afraid of those checkpoints; even if Chen Zaikun made a move himself, he couldn’t stop her.
But once things were exposed, Akas’s surgery would beco very difficult.
So, without a mont’s hesitation, Yun You put a black trench coat on Lamia, and leaving the villa, they quietly headed toward Nest City No. 4.
...
Fortunately, along the way, they encountered no obstacles and arrived smoothly at Nest City No. 4.
Unlike Nest City No. 3 which was situated in a plain, Nest City No. 4, although also in the Eastern Hemisphere, stood by the sea and was largely enveloped by tropical rainforests, with a much more humid climate, rain almost year-round.
The rain was the eternal background sound of Nest City No. 4, but it wasn’t life-bringing dew; it was acidic, with a faint corrosive tallic sll, sizzling when it hit tal pipes, releasing small white smoke; when it landed on exposed steel, it gnawed like a worm, leaving deep rust marks.
This was the side effect of industrial developnt.
The entire city was slowly dissolving in acid rain.
In this perpetual dissolution, a special trade erged—one that struggled to survive in the toxic rain: the "Painter."
They hung suspended hundreds of ters high, close to city buildings, vigorously waving a specially designed broad brush, dipping into a container full of anti-corrosion liquid to sar the building surfaces repeatedly.
The rainwater hitting the new coat made a subtle "sizzle" sound imdiately; even the most advanced anti-corrosion coating couldn’t permanently protect the buildings, so the painters had to constantly paint, waging an endless tug-of-war with acid rain. anwhile, their bodies aged rapidly under years of corrosion, succumbing to various bizarre ailnts.
So enormous painting robots glided slowly over the buildings; their work efficiency was high, enough to match hundreds of painters... In fact, after the Equality Association occupied Nest City No. 4, Chen Zaikun considered replacing manual work with machines, but he quickly found the thod unfeasible.
The robots were efficient, but the cost was several thousand tis that of human labor, and critically, the robots themselves were corroded during work, requiring human maintenance, whereas humans did not require that.
So in the end, this twisted profession remained, just to maintain the magnificent buildings of Nest City No. 4.
However, Yun You’s target was not these grand exterior buildings.
