Chapter 42: Ordinary Vivian(1/2)
I don’t know if Andy can leave it to Xiao Hei...
Vivian was worried all the way to Huodian City.
However, the advantage of awakening the second personality is that the little girl can chat anytime, anywhere, um, chat with me.
"I think that guy is quite reliable." The second personality in the mental space seemed to have said something good about Liao Zixuan once in a while.
And before Vivian could finish her words, the next sentence of the second personality followed closely.
"He should torture Andy to death. After all, he is your brother, but it is hard to say about those villagers and strangers, hehehe..."
"reliable"
It was okay if the second personality didn't speak. The more he spoke, the more worried Vivian became.
However, soon the little girl no longer had the heart to worry about others, because a tall and majestic city appeared in front of her field of vision.
Fire Code City...has arrived.
Speaking of which, this is Vivian's first time to Huodian City.
When she was a child, her mother often told her stories about Huodian City and the God of Fire. Later, after her mother passed away, the impression of Huodian City gradually became blurred. Only once a year, gentlemen from the city went to the countryside to buy servants.
At that time, looking at those gorgeous and rich carriages, Vivian could think of what Huodian City looked like.
But at this moment, I really stood at the foot of this city, looking at the towering and straight city walls, the vast area with no boundaries, and the most eye-catching thing, located in the center of the city, a huge statue of the God of Fire.
Fire God Alice, one of the Nine Gods, holds a flaming scepter and controls fire among the nine elements, symbolizing prosperity and rebirth.
The towering goddess statue seems to be overlooking the entire city, leaving all evil and heresy nowhere to hide.
It is under the protection of the God of Fire that this largest city in the [Fire Domain] has stood for hundreds of years, witnessing the changes of one era after another.
"Hey! Stop standing still like a bumpkin from the countryside!"
The second personality in the mental space made a dissatisfied sound towards Vivian, who was still staring blankly at the Fire Code City with her head raised.
that...
Actually, I, no, we are just country bumpkins...
The little girl whispered in her heart.
Just as the second personality was about to speak angrily and angrily, Vivian quickly jogged to the entrance of the city gate.
In fact, Vivian has always had doubts from the beginning.
Huodian City was indeed very large and impressive, but why was she outside the city gate and unable to see a few travelers coming and going, entering and exiting the city?
This is completely different from Vivian's imagination, where there are long queues, huge crowds, and countless carriages and trucks to enter the city.
I patted my cheek and didn't think about it so much for now.
Hurry into the city and use the Vulcan Token to find the big shots in the city. Report the information about the changes deep in the Dreadclaw Forest. Requesting the support of the Knights is the first priority!
With this thought in mind, Vivian quickly stepped up her steps, holding tightly the token that Bella had thrown to her in her right hand.
However, the girl had only taken a few steps when someone suddenly called out to her from behind.
"Hey little girl, are you going to the city?" A young gangster with a sinister look and a sly look, dressed a bit like a refugee, caught up with him panting.
"Yes...yes." Vivian nodded, her expression filled with confusion and a hint of vigilance.
"Oh, then you came at the wrong time. It's very difficult to enter Huodian City now! If you don't have permission to enter the city, the city guards inside won't let you in at all!"
The young man who looked like a gangster sighed and shook his head as he spoke.
Then he looked up and down at Vivian's appearance.
There were not many visible clothes on him, and he was in tatters, as if he had just come back from the wild. As for any jewelry, there was not a single one!
He even said that the other party's small and shriveled body made him too lazy to even deceive him.
Chris, who had read countless people, shook his head inwardly at Vivian.
No need to guess.
A country bumpkin who comes from the countryside and wants to go to the city is still the kind who doesn’t have much to eat!
But pity it is, business still has to be done.
then...
"So, little girl, do you have a permit to enter the city? It's the one I'm holding in my hand." Chris followed his usual routine and deliberately waved his fake permit in front of Vivian's eyes.
"No...no." Vivian shook her head honestly.
"That's it, hey... forget it, I see you are quite anxious too, otherwise I will sell mine to..."
Chris pretended that he couldn't bear it and had suffered a big loss. He had tried this trick many times, especially with these little country girls who were called naive at best and idiots at worst.
However, before he could finish speaking, the little girl across from him interrupted him.
"However, although I don't have permission to enter the city, I...I think I should be able to get in with this." Vivian said, taking out the token she had been holding in her hand and showing it to the young man opposite.
Chris looked left and right.
He felt that apart from the complicated and beautiful patterns engraved on it, this token seemed to be just a piece of broken wood?
"what is this?"
"Vulcan Token." Vivian answered honestly again.
Then Chris, who was still dubious at first and really thought the girl could come up with something extraordinary, almost burst out laughing.
Good guy!
Vulcan Token!?
How dare you say that!
Chris's first reaction was that Vivian might have met a colleague before him, one who could deceive and brag better than him.
So out of curiosity, the young man asked again:
"Who gave this to you?"
"It seems...the bishop of the Vulcan Cult." Vivian answered honestly again.
"..."
Chris didn't know what to say for a moment.
When he looked at the girl across from him who was so convinced that she even regarded this broken piece of wood as a treasure in his eyes and clutched it tightly, for some reason, Chris suddenly felt a strong sense of sadness in his heart.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What a fool you have to be to believe such nonsense!
"Then...well, thank you very much for telling me this news, but if there's nothing else, then...I'll leave first. I still have very important things to do in the city!"
The anxious look on Vivian's face was not fake, the little girl was really anxious.
After she finished speaking, she turned around and continued running towards the city gate, but before she had taken a few steps, the voice of the young man behind her came again.
"You...you wait a moment!"
"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" Vivian sighed inwardly. She sighed that it was indeed Huodian City, and the people here were so welcoming.
"No... I just want to ask, if you can't enter the city, how are you going to get back?" In Chris' view, Vivian was destined to be blocked outside.
The little girl hesitated.
She originally wanted to refute, but finally replied:
"I'll just run back. What's the matter? Don't look at me like this, but I... run pretty fast."
As if to prove it, Vivian quickly added another sentence.
"I ran from the Dreadclaw Forest to Fire Code City!"
What a beast! What a beast! You defrauded this silly girl of all her travel expenses! You can only let her walk all the way home! No wonder she’s all in tatters!
These disgusting liars!
At this moment, Chris seemed to have forgotten that he was also one of the liars.
He has indeed deceived many people, but it was all with small amounts of money. According to his own statement, he was helping these people who entered Huodian City for the first time to spend money to learn lessons in advance. You know, the people in the city are worse than him.
Much more.
However, even Chris, this is the first time he has met such a stupid, ridiculously stupid little girl, who can even believe such nonsense as the Vulcan Order given by the Vulcan Cult Bishop!
"Take it!" Chris gritted his teeth, looking inside his clothes with blood dripping from his heart, and took out a small, dry money bag.
"Hire a carriage on your way back."
"No..."
Just as Vivian was about to say something, Chris waved his hand gracefully, and then turned around suddenly. He was afraid that if he stayed for a while longer, he would be unable to resist asking for the money back.
Sure enough, people in big cities are so kind!
The little girl clutched the money bag and said nothing more because she was pressed for time. She just silently remembered the young man's back and decided to return the money if she had the chance.
In this way, Vivian finally entered the city gate checkpoint of Huodian City.
