Chapter 120
Edited by: grump
Since the chanical army withdrew from the elf territory, in the next few days, various clansn in the United capital obviously realized that sothing was strange.
Originally, people of all races were on the alert that the chanical creatures might attack the elves again in the near future, but as a result, nothing happened to the latter. Not even minor conflicts . The peace was sowhat incredible.
In response to this unusual situation, Kadrin’s parliant sent scouts to investigate. The news they brought back made all the top leaders of the parliant doubt their ears.
Kelno, once the royal city of human beings, was occupied by chanical creatures after the extinction of human beings, and these chanical creatures were now preparing for a festival celebrating human beings in this royal city—??
“Maybe it’s just a cover to deceive us. These chanical creatures are most likely brewing so big moves. Ogg city still needs to strengthen its defense. Against the chanical army, the city must not fall.” The king of the dwarves was the first to speak at the eting. His point of view was very clear. He would not reduce his vigilance against chanical creatures under any circumstances.
“And according to the scouts’ report, so chanical creatures originally scattered outside the royal city are now returning to the city one after another, gathering strength. This is not a good sign.” The leader of the lich clan made a calm analysis. He also did not think that the recent abnormal behavior of chanical creatures was normal. The latter must have so purpose.
The high-level officials of all races at the eting basically reached a consensus. Taking advantage of this unusual period of calm, they should take this opportunity to train the troops as soon as possible, just to strengthen the defensive preparations in the territories of all races.
Different from the state of the other races, who were still on high alert and acted with caution everywhere, the chanical creatures occupying the royal city in Kelno City were really simply preparing for the celebration, and the atmosphere in the city was harmonious.
In just a few days, this otherwise lifeless city changed its appearance. All parts of the city were decorated with a festive atmosphere, looking lively and not lacking in joy.
“Du.”
A group of N3 robots carried newly made holiday decorations and hung them around the palace.
The chanical creatures in the royal city had been working hard these days to make the city more in line with the image it should have when celebrating the full moon.
There were more and more chanical creatures gathered at the entrance of the palace where the last surviving human was being held. If it weren’t for the fact that the entrance of the palace was too crowded, the chanical creatures of the whole city might have co here one after another.
The chanical creatures gathered in this place didn’t do anything, just squatted down to stay quietly after completing their own tasks. From ti to ti, in order to make sure that the imprisoned youth didn’t escape, they went to the room to spy.
Seeing a N2 robot carrying the youth on its shoulders out of the palace, the chanical creatures gathered at the gate of the palace imdiately flashed blue light from its lower eyes.
The N2 robot, with the young man sitting on his shoulder, looked out of the palace gate and at his companions around him, then made a monotonous sound.
“I heard that the royal city has been completely decorated, can I go outside the palace and have a look?” The scope of activities previously stipulated was within the imperial palace, so Gu Huai made this inquiry.
The question had to be answered by the highest-ranking chanical creature on the scene. Assistant Officer Al said calmly, “This small request can be satisfied under the premise of being monitored by our entourage.”
As the officer said this sentence, the chanical creatures present secretly nodded. To prevent the prisoner from escaping, it was of course necessary for them to accompany and monitor him.
The festive atmosphere in the royal city was already very strong, even if they accompanied a monitored prisoner, this team of chanical creatures coming out of the palace was more like a human youth guarded in the center of the team.
“It’s very nice.” Sitting on the shoulder of an N2 robot and the touring streets, Gu Huai expressed clear praise for the layout of the city.
“Du ... Du, Du ...” The royal city was set up by them. The chanical creatures that heard the voice of the youth let out sounds. They set their gazes straight on the youth.
“Ahem.” Just then, Serge coughed in a fake voice. When the young man looked away, he said without his face changing: “Tomorrow is the Full Moon Festival, although you are a prisoner, you also need to attend. Because this is an important celebration, everyone in the city must participate.”
It could not be said directly that they wanted the youth to participate in the celebration they were preparing. Serge directly bypassed the regulations. This was totally reasonable.
Gu Huai nodded, then suddenly asked, “Will Noah attend the celebration?”
“This...” Without thinking about why the youth would ask this question, Serge turned to look at the highest and most iconic building in the palace and reluctantly explained: “The commander’s actions are not subject to regulations.”
Not sure about this problem, Serge secretly thought in his heart, maybe he should send soone to invite his commander to attend the celebration later...
However, according to Serge’s understanding of his commander, the other did not like noisy occasions. This kind of “noise” included the battlefield. Before the enemy made a sound, they were usually beheaded by their commander with a long black cold blade.
However, the Full Moon Festival was first proposed by the commander. Considering this point, Serge couldn’t help feeling conflicted.
Another day and night passed, and the celebration officially began. For this day, the chanical creatures also specially made pyrotechnic devices to increase the festive atmosphere when night ca.
During the Full Moon Festival, day was the ti to pray, while night was the ti for all to celebrate and have fun together.
At night, the sky over the city of Kelno burst with brilliant fireworks. Although the scene looked very beautiful, it scared the other races in the mainland of Eizea, who thought it was an attack signal from the chanical army.
All kinds of people were worried all night. The chanical creatures in Kelno city dressed themselves up differently, as they were in peace today. On the night of the Full Moon Festival, there was a large-scale masquerade party, so the chanical creatures in the royal city learned to put so special decorations on themselves.
“Du.” Wearing a wreath on his head, the R-03 robot tilted its head towards the youth in front of him and made a single sound.
“Well, it looks good.” Gu Huai said with a smile, he didn’t change his clothes very much, but he did put on a white robe, which was usually worn by temple priests. There were dark golden lines embroidered in several complicated and solemn patterns on the robe.
The dance, as its na implied, of course ant dancing.
All the other races who saw the fireworks were still in a state of panic. They could not have imagined that all the chanical creatures in the royal city had co together to dance. Furthermore, most of the dances were rough, which looked much like a scene of a large car accident.
The only human youth in the city who could be regarded as a living being was left alone at this ti. Not because no chanical creatures wanted to dance with the youth, but because these chanical creatures were waiting for the right ti.
“What did the commander say?” Serge sent soone to invite his commander. Seeing his n coming back, he asked for the results.
However, the subordinate’s response was sowhat unexpected. The humanoid machine rushed back and bowed its head. “The commander is not on the astrological table, and the subordinate looked everywhere and did not see him.”
Serge paused for a mont, then nodded, “Well, I see.”
It seems that their commander really didn’t like this lively scene and left the astrological station without saying a word.
The other party didn’t like it, so of course they couldn’t force it... Just thinking about it, Sage looked up and his heart was completely blocked.
This.... who.... ah this! Even robbed his position-!!
In fact, Serge was not the only one who had this idea. All the chanical creatures present were staring at the dark figure close to the youth with burning eyes, and they almost made a hole in the other’s body.
All the chanical creatures that were present were planning in their hearts to invite the youth to dance as soon as there was an unobtrusive opportunity, but as a result this dark figure, which none of them saw appear, got ahead of them.
But even if they had been blocked, these chanical creatures couldn’t show it on the surface, they had to continue maintaining a calm appearance.
The dark figure approaching the youth was wearing a black cloak, the hood over his head casting a shadow on the white mask he wore to cover his whole face.
The identity of the bearer was confird by his own intuition and the prompt of his system. Gu Huai looked down at his outstretched hand. Instead of directly accepting the invitation, he took a step closer to the figure in a black cloak and deliberately asked, “Do you want to dance with ?”
Due to the youth’s taking initiative to approach, the body of this unknown chanical creation wearing a black cloak and a pure white mask beca slightly stiff, but after that, this dark figure still silently nodded his head.
“Um... okay.” Gu Huai looked like he was thinking for a while before he reached out to the dark figure in front of him.
Although human-shaped chanical creatures had simulated body temperature, compared to a human, the body temperature of humanoid machines would be relatively lower and cooler, as Gu Huai felt now.
This was the first ti he had physical contact with the youth in a real sense. The dark figure who invited the youth to dance was a little slow at this ti.
It was not that he couldn’t dance. Their huge database and perfect evolution and learning ability could let him master any skills easily. Just because the target was the youth, this dark and cold figure was clumsy and looked like a beginner in all aspects.
“You should hold it tighter.” Gu Huai pointed to the other’s hand on his waist, he calmly corrected him.
“...” The black figure corrected by the youth paused for a mont. After a second, the black figure nodded obediently and tightened his arm around the youth’s waist as the youth said.
After stumbling through a dance, the dark figure did not leave the youth’s side, but stood in place.
The other was still there, and other chanical creatures who wanted to invite the youth to dance saw it wasn’t so convenient to move.
“I heard that there is a wishing well in the royal city, but I don’t know where it is. Can you take there?” Planning to go to a quiet place, Gu Huai asked the dark figure in front of him.
According to custom, people in the royal city cast a silver coin into this well to make a wish on the Full Moon Festival. The so-called wishing well was the place where people made wishes.
Hearing this request from the youth, the chanical creature wearing the black cloak still didn’t make any noise. He silently nodded, and then walked in front of the youth.
“You won’t... or can’t talk?” Gu Huai followed each other and suddenly asked this question on the road.
“...” Walking in front, the black figure slightly paused. After a long ti, a low and cold voice spoke from under the mask, “Yes.”
The wishing well was not far from the place just now, but standing in front of the well, Gu Huai realized sothing difficult. One thing he had to ntion was that he was still a penniless man in this world, so poor that he didn’t even have a silver coin.
However, he seed to have known the difficulties of the youth for a long ti. The black figure next to the youth silently handed the youth a bag of coins. After the youth accepted the purse, he stood quietly watching the youth throw one magic crystal coin after another into the wish well.
When the youth had finished throwing all the coins in the bag, the black figure took out another bag without saying a word.
A magic crystal coin could be worth 10,000 gold coins, equal to 1 million silver coins, but the other party seed to be unmoved by the magic crystal coins thrown into the well water one by one by the youth.
He deliberately threw out both bags of coins. When the black figure next to him was ready to take out the third bag, Gu Huai said, “Are you willing to give as much as I want?”
At this ti of hesitation to the previous questions, the humanoid machine under the cloak responded to this question very simply, and the other party spoke in a low and cold voice.
“Enough is enough, no more.” Hearing the answer, Gu Huai clapped his hands to end his wish. Then he turned around to face the black figure beside him. Suddenly he turned around and said, “Inviting soone to dance the first dance at the Full Moon Festival is to show his love to the other party. Accepting the invitation ans accepting the other party’s wishes. “
His words were made up, but Gu Huai’s serious tone made these words seem justified, and successfully made the black figure in front of him freeze slightly.
There was no such record in the database—
The correct logic was this, but the humanoid machine hiding itself under the cloak failed to grasp this correct logic, because when he wanted to confirm this idea, the black-haired young man in front of him approached and kissed his mask.
This was to make the humanoid weapon that had restrained itself these days gradually deviate from his initial procedure.
“We danced,” he reminded the other about this matter. Gu Huai and the masked humanoid with light golden eyes looked at each other.
He couldn’t take off the mask, he should not take off the mask. The black figure in front of the youth hesitated for a long ti. He stretched out his hand to cover the youth’s eyes.
The mask was pushed up a little by its owner, revealing the thin and attractive lip under the mask. After a mont’s hesitation, the owner of this pure white mask dropped a very light kiss on the cheek of the youth.
“You can’t show what you look like yet, can you?” Gu Huai said as he nodded clearly, but he did not have to let the other party take off his mask. He only asked after the other party put down his hand over his eyes: “I am actually a prisoner in the palace. You will co to tomorrow. Soday I will be beheaded and executed, and you will never see again.”
This statent was also deliberately said, of course, and looked very effective, the black figure in front of the youth quickly nodded.
Although there was no disturbance, there were a few chanical creatures that followed far away. When the ceremony was over, Gu Huai would have to return to the palace. After a long day of celebration activities, he was a little tired. Gu Huai went to bed and fell asleep quickly under the gaze of a group of chanical creatures in the palace after a hot bath.
The chanical creatures did not have the concept of sleep. As long as there was energy, they did not rest day and night.
At the astrological table, which had been empty for a long ti, the figure who had returned seed to be much colder and quieter than the late night when only frost and cold moonlight existed.
This night, he did not sneak into the room diagonally opposite the astrological table. The humanoid weapon at the astrological table slightly narrowed its pale golden eyes without emotion. He looked down and stared at the object in his hand.
A white mask.
Noah gently rubbed the mask with his fingertip at a place of special significance that had been kissed by the youth not long ago.
