Lulu and Azzura were amazed hearing his words, then their eyes brightened in admiration looking at his back; they felt his figure beco extrely tall, and then both of them nodded toward each other and followed him toward the mountain.
A few days passed,
More and more giant captives from surrounding mountains gathered toward the giant city established by Lin Lee.
Lin Lee collected and reprocessed the tal bases and those scrap remains of alien civilization.
He then created handy tools for giants and taught them how to forge and process the tal after mining.
In just a few years, the giant city truly transford into a large city with a tall wall encircling it in thousands of miles.
The mountain area inside was transford into societies with hos made from rock and tals.
There are a lot of large and small cube-shaped buildings floating in the city; these buildings whole outer structure looks like nurous runes combined in perfect cubic squares.
The smallest cube is a hundred square ters, and the largest is a ten thousand square ter cube, which is floating in the middle of the city.
This ten-thousand-square-ter cube floating in the middle of the city is known as the capital building, also the residence of the lord of the giant empire.
...
Ten years later,
Inside the barren desert located near the eastern hemisphere of the Titan planet,
A few figures are walking through the hot desert wearing light fiber clothes on their giant bodies and covering their faces.
If so giants encounter them in this desert, they will imdiately recognize them as children of giants, because each of these giant figures heights didn't exceed five ters; so are even smaller, three ters in size, yet they are walking through the hot desert.
After a while, they stopped beside a rocky area and then sat down on the boulder one by one, drinking water from the tallic bottle in their hands.
One of the small four-ter figures glanced at the large tallic bottle of water in his hand; it has blue runes flickering above its surface, while the water-gathering light is flickering above it.
"Big Brother Leo, how much ti will it take us to reach the city of runes?"
He asked, looking at the tallest five-ter giant boy standing in front of him with an anticipated expression,
Leo glanced at him and his other siblings. Along with him, there are three males and three females. The three females are of two, three, and four ter height, while the males are of three, four, and Leo is five ters, the eldest among them all.
Leo then smiled, looking at them, and then he pointed in the direction of a dim mountain range in the north and spoke,
"We are almost there; we have to cross that mountain. Don't worry; it will take us a few hours by foot only."
The younger siblings in front of him nodded, and then his little brother with the water bottle spoke with furrowed brows, looking at the bottle in his hand.
"Brother Leo, I don't know why, but the bottle you created has slowed down the water gathering. I have noticed such phenona since we ventured into this desert."
Leo glanced at the bottle in surprise, and then he glanced at the suns above thoughtfully and spoke,
"Leno, It seems because of dry weather, the rune I engraved on the bottle is just a simple water-gathering rune; it is the sub-rune of the water rune. The temperature here is high, and the concentration of water in the air is low; probably at night the gathering speed will increase."
He replied and then thought of sothing and added, looking at his siblings, "Also, don't worry; we are just passing through the edge of the desert; it's a shortcut, and we will reach the city of runes before night falls."
Leno and others nodded, looking at Leo. Leo then glanced in the direction of the dim mountain range far away, which is barely visible in his eyes.
'I can't wait to reach that amazing city and learn all kinds of runes; there are three thousand basic runes. Just mastering one basic rune will help get admitted to the rune academy, and then I can probably et him.'
Leo thought to himself, and then, thinking of sothing, a complex emotion flashed through his eyes, and he glanced at his little siblings behind.
'Will he accept us? Anyway, ti will tell everything.'
He thought to himself and then, after a while, shook his head, dismissing the running thoughts from his mind.
Leo then passed the bag containing at to the Leno and spoke,
"Leno here prepares it and lets them have a al; also, consu less water and save it for later use."
"Yes, brother," Leno replied and opened the bag, looking at the few at pieces. He ward it up above a hot stone and then passed it to his other siblings.
All of them ate with relish. Leno then passed half of his piece toward Leo. "Big brother, this one is the last piece; you can eat it half."
Leo shook his head and replied, "No need to finish it up; I am not hungry. I will just drink the glass of water."
After speaking, he grabbed the water bottle and then took three sips, closed the lid again,
Leno glanced at him silently and then nodded, looking at the at piece in his hand for a while; he ate it completely.
"Let's go; we should move forward next."
Leo then spoke and then walked toward the mountain range far away in the north.
After a few hours, as the sun lowered from the sky and coolness spread through the atmosphere,
Leo and his siblings reached the destination, all of their eyes wide open, looking at the ten thousand ter tall wall in front of them; its height even exceeded the small and dium mountains, almost equal to large mountains.
"This wall has basic protection and defensive runes, other sub-runes like strike, anti-strike, barrier, earth, and tal condensation and combination; as for others, I can't read them."
Leo comnted his expression beca thoughtful looking at the runes structure on the surface of the wall; even as a genius in runes, he couldn't read the runes engraved on the outer wall of this city. The arrogance in his heart disappeared.
"Let's go inside." Leo then took a deep breath and walked toward the gate. After reaching near the gate,
Leo and his siblings noticed a lot of giants moving inside and outside through the gate; also, so giants are riding the rectangular-shaped vehicles.
Leo glanced at the runes above those vehicles; his eyes lit up.
"Wow, it's a flying box." Instantly the sibling behind him exclaid, looking at the vehicle in amazent; even Leno was looking at everything in amazent.
"Brother, everything here exceeded my expectations; it's completely different from those books we got." Leno comnted in surprise, looking at everything around.
Leo shook his head and replied, "Those books are very outdated."
Then he was startled looking at a few tall twelve-ter tallic robots standing at the entry point. These robots are oval, the sa as the aliens shape he saw in the books; their blue color and two antennas are the sa as those aliens.
'Why are these tallic puppets looking the sa as those aliens who attacked our civilization ten years ago?'
Leo thought to himself and then shook his head, walked toward the entry point, saying,
"Let's go; we have to register our identity there, and then they will let us enter the city."
After speaking, Leo walked forward, and his siblings followed behind with excited and curious expressions on their faces.
Upon reaching the entry point, one of the giant robots turned and scanned them all, then he requested,
"You are entering the premises of the giant empire for the first ti; please clarify your identity."
Leo nodded and then introduced himself and his siblings one by one: "I am Leo, and they are my siblings, Leno and Lina, my second and third little brother and sister, both at stage four; Leona and Lian, third and fourth brother and sister at stage three; and finally, Lily, the youngest among us all; she is stage two."
Robot nodded and then asked about his parents and hotown.
Leo fell silent and then raised his head and replied, "Our parents exiled us from the house; I prefer not to say anything about them and the village I ca from."
The giant robot halted for a whole, and then it spoke,
"You have t the criteria of permanent residency, and your siblings have t the condition of asylum under the law of the Giant Runic Empire."
After speaking, the robot glanced at Leno and others behind Leo and added,
"Also, Mr. Leo, you are now an adult; you can take custody of your siblings if they want, or do you want the empire to shelter them? Don't worry, the empire will support for their growth in both conditions until they are adults."
