Valkyrie showed a look of memories, and then suddenly realized: "It's your Colt. You once said to give it to someone. Could it be this zero. It turns out that father, you have been in contact with him, but if so, why? Didn't you bring him back directly, father?"

"At that time, I was not sure. Although the wave energy of the holy relic was detected, the signal was so weak that it was negligible. So I sent Colt to him, and I installed a wave energy monitor on the gun. , It will periodically feed back the data to my personal brain. And until recently, the sacred wave energy of Ling has an upward trend, which shows that he should be the experimental subject of that plan. As his ability improves, The power from the holy relics will be more obvious." Ben gave a deep smile: "As for the so-called third-party restriction clause, Colt from Ling has given us enough excuses to bypass this clause."

"It turns out that you thought about this happening early in the morning."

"It's just to prepare in advance, I am not a god, how can I know what will happen in the future." Ben shook his head.

Valkyrie said respectfully to Ben: "I understand, I will personally extradite Zero, don't worry. Father!"

Having said that, Valkyrie turned and left. Ben looked at the zero photo on the screen and smiled and said, "We will meet soon."

After coming out of the town of Windmill, the curved and fractured highway stretched northward. This highway, which passes through most of the cities and bases along the coastline, was gradually paved only after the cataclysm over the past two decades. At first, it was just the main traffic arteries connecting several bases, but with the emergence of various bases, the demand for traffic made the scale of the road bigger and bigger, and the road was spread farther and farther, and finally the entire coastline area was divided into zones. . So far, this coastline road is still talked about like a miracle.

Only due to lack of maintenance and construction, over time, roads gradually appear broken and other damage conditions. But as long as the vehicles can barely pass, no philanthropist will fund the road to be built.

A mountainous area will appear when Fengche Town is six or seven hundred kilometers north. From here, the surface of the land bid farewell to the plains in the south, and the mountainous landforms of the north began to appear. After the cataclysm, the original continental plates either sank or merged. For example, the Central Continent is the original merging of the Eurasian plate and the Pacific plate, while the large cracks are the marks left by the collision and merging of the two major plates.

The mountainous area where the coastline road extends from the town of Windmill rises abruptly from the horizon. It is the impact compression produced by the collision of the plates, which changes the original land structure, allowing the ground to rise, but to let the ground A lot of space appeared underneath. The polluted seawater inverts, after dilution and precipitation, it will form precious usable water containing a small amount of radiation.

The urban base of the City of Shadows is built on a piece of land like this underground water. Due to the special stratum structure, the city cannot be built under the ground. At the very beginning, the developers of the Shadow Capital discovered that this area was rich in ground water resources, and gradually developed from the most primitive water purification plant to the present day to form the scale of a city.

In turbulent times, water represents the continuation of life. It can be said that every region that can produce net water resources must be a major city. The City of Shadows is no exception. The original developer was replaced by the current committee and became the ruling class of the city. Sitting among the valleys, a city that can be illuminated by natural sky only a few times a year. The largest industry in it is a large-scale water purification plant that occupies nearly half of the city.

The clean water produced by the City of Shadows, in addition to supplying the needs of the city, is also sold to other cities or bases for huge profits. Obviously, the shadows are all fat and fat, and no one's idea of ​​it is just a joke. It's just that the members of the Shadow City are very smart, and they made an agreement with the Dark Council at the beginning of the city's establishment.

The City of Shadows will become a legal city within the protection of the Dark Council, and a certain amount of taxes will be paid to the Dark Council every year in exchange for the armed protection of the Dark Council. In the City of Shadows, a blood-riding colonel and an elite force have been stationed for many years. They suppressed any armed forces that dared to get involved in this city.

Because of the existence of the Scarlet Knight, the Shadow Capital has become the equivalent of a sanctuary. Business travelers or travelers in the past can get a temporary rest here and rest assured, of course, for this they must pay far higher taxes than other cities.

It has been two days since Moni and Atesha came to the City of Shadows. In order to enter the city, Moni almost paid all of her money. After sleeping on the street for the night, the two of them relied on Moni to perform dances in the bar of the Shadow City, and only earned the cost of accommodation for the two.

While waiting for the zero to converge, Moni used her free time during the day to hold her mother's picture, looking for any relevant news on the streets of the city like a needle in a haystack. Moni changes places every day in order to maximize the source of the news ~lightnovelpub.net~ But until now, she has not heard any useful news, but is harassed by many men with excess energy.

It's just that Moni has a gun and a knife on her body, and the men in the Shadow City don't dare to fight casually, otherwise the sheriff's interference will be attracted. So Moni hasn't gotten into any trouble, but there is always nothing absolute. After two or three days, many people already know that in the street during the day, there will be a beautiful girl who is persistently looking for someone important.

Tyne the Sickle is one of them. He is one of the leaders of the Bloody Brotherhood of the Snake in the Capital of Shadows. The Brotherhood belongs to a semi-legal organization. Usually, the Shadow Capital will leave it to them to do some things that are not on the table, and the Brotherhood in exchange for the legal right to reside in the city. In addition to performing some official tasks, the Brotherhood is also engaged in businesses with huge profits such as slaves and arms.

Among them, the beautiful slaves are even more profitable than arms, so after personally ascertaining Moni's appearance, Tyne, the young girl, became something in her pocket. A beautiful, but young, young slave like Moni can sell for sky-high prices. But before selling her, Tyne wanted to taste her first.

It's just that you can't openly kidnap him in the Shadow City, even if he belongs to the Brotherhood. Once detected, Tyne will definitely be regarded as a victim in order to maintain the justice on the surface of the city. He is not stupid, and Moni has Artessa on her body, and that black girl is not easy to provoke. Therefore, Tyne designed a simple but effective trap.

"Excuse me, have you seen this woman in the photo?"

On the street, Moni was persistently asking every passerby with a photo. After getting another disappointing answer, she heard someone behind her say: "Hey, I seem to have seen this woman."

Moni turned her head quickly, and standing behind was a man with long gray-brown hair.
