Chapter 554 The Shock of Grandfather and Grandson 2!
Just then, a group of people rushed into the commercial street, saying as they walked, "Hurry up! Dragon City is about to leave the Mechanical City, let's have some fun in the last three days..."
"What? Longcheng is leaving?" Luo Xia's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
"Hahaha, our chance has come! Little Lily, let's go and ask to see the Lord of Dragon City!"
As Luo Xia spoke, he took his granddaughter's hand and hurried toward the city gate.
............
boom!
Another explosion came from the city lord's mansion.
However, the people around only looked at the city lord's mansion with reverence, and no one panicked.
Clearly, it's the city lord doing research again.
"Sigh, this is the 169th time already!" In the studio, Xiao Yu shook his head and sighed.
After lunch, he resumed his study of the Flame Stone.
The research process was simple: it involved repeatedly conducting various experiments.
Take different amounts of orange-red flame stones and grind them into powder.
Then, a certain proportion of stone powder is added to the arrow.
However, if the concentration of the flaming stone powder is too high, the ignition point will be too high, making it easy to explode.
If the concentration is too low, the arrow will not ignite at all.
"I still know too little about gunpowder. If I want to use it, I can only rely on a lot of experiments."
Xiao Yu wiped his face, instantly purifying himself of the soot on his clothes and face. "With the help of a group of gunpowder experts, the research process will definitely be much faster. Maybe we'll be able to put those two types of stones to use soon..."
Compared to the orange-red stones he is currently studying.
The fiery red stones and dark red stones are the real treasures.
Unfortunately, he can't even control the weakest orange-red stone now.
Two more powerful and ferocious ones, I don't know when they will be available.
Moreover, gunpowder is not only used for fighting and killing enemies, but it is also a very powerful energy source.
If we learn to utilize these energies, we might be able to create electric cars or motorcycles from another world.
The problem is that he has too many things to do and cannot abandon other matters to study the Flame Stone.
Knock knock knock. Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in!" Xiao Yu waved his hand, and the stone door to the studio opened.
The maid Yao Yao bowed and said, "Lord City Lord, someone requests an audience with you."
Xiao Yu asked calmly, "Who are they?"
There are too many people who want to see him now, but as the city lord, he can't possibly see everyone.
Therefore, he gave the soldiers defending the city sufficient authority.
Some insignificant people won't even notify him.
"It's Rorschach from the underground city!"
"Luo Xia? That old man?" Xiao Yu was slightly taken aback.
An image of a somewhat unkempt old man came to mind.
Or rather, people who spend a lot of time walking in the wilderness, regardless of gender, are all very slovenly.
After all, water is scarce in the wilderness, and most people can't take a bath more than a few times a month. How can they not be dirty?
Only the people of Longcheng are so clean and tidy because they can shower, wash their hands and face every day.
"Have it!"
The next second, Xiao Yu's eyes suddenly lit up, and the corners of his mouth curled up: "I was just worried about how hard it was to study the Flame Stone, and now it's delivered right to my doorstep. Go... bring the person in."
.............
An old man and a young boy stood at the city gate for a long time.
These two people are none other than Luo Xia and his granddaughter Luo Li.
Both of them were somewhat uneasy at that moment.
After all, the Lord of Dragon City is of noble status and high position.
Who knows if they'd even want to see them.
"Gentlemen, are you from the underground city?" At this moment, a girl dressed in golden armor and wearing a mask walked out from the inner city and scrutinized the grandfather and granddaughter.
“It’s us. My name is Luo Xia, and this is my granddaughter Luo Li. May I ask who you are…?” Luo Xia bowed slightly and asked tentatively.
"I am one of the city lord's personal guards, June." June said, raising her chin.
As she spoke, her cheeks automatically lifted, revealing her exquisite and aloof beauty.
"One of the Dragon City Lord's guards is actually this strong?" Luo Xia was slightly surprised.
Although he was a peak seventh-level expert.
However, I feel that if a fight breaks out, I might not be able to defeat the golden-armored girl in front of me.
Because the opponent's foundation far exceeds that of ordinary sixth-tier individuals, and is even comparable to some seventh-tier individuals.
Most importantly, the opponent was equipped with top-tier luxury gear, all of which were sixth-tier top-quality items!
If he were given such equipment, he might be able to take on an eighth-tier opponent head-on.
Upon seeing the catwoman's exquisite face, the little girl couldn't help but exclaim, "Sister, you're so beautiful!"
A blush crept onto the catwoman's usually aloof and pretty face, and she smiled at the stranger, a rare occurrence for her. "Thank you, little sister. You're very pretty too. The city lord sent me to pick you up. Come with me."
"Thank you!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Xia was overjoyed.
He quickly grabbed his granddaughter and hurried after her.
"Grandpa, is this the true form of the glowing tree? The environment here is even better, and the air is fresher." As soon as they entered the inner city, the little girl opened her mouth wide in surprise.
She bathed in the luminous dew every day, so she was very curious about the luminous tree.
Previously, the only place you could see a tree branch was at the Dragon Gate Inn.
Now, as we enter the inner city, we see the entire glowing tree for the first time; it's truly enormous.
The various vegetables and fruit trees here are also boundless, like a paradise on earth.
“Yes! The people who live here must be very happy.” Luo Xia also opened his mouth wide and looked around.
The little girl is more interested in the glow-in-the-dark trees, vegetable and fruit trees, and other food-related things.
Rorschach, however, was interested in the dozens of buildings of varying sizes in the inner city.
There were many people moving around in each building, seemingly producing something.
Luo Xia guessed that the goods sold on the outer city's commercial street might have come from here.
What's even more surprising is...
In the apocalypse, women are basically useless except as reproductive tools and childcare.
However, it is clearly different in Dragon City.
In planting areas, breeding areas, and the garment industry, 90% of the workers are women.
In Longcheng, every man is a soldier, and the women... are all very capable.
"At the beginning of life, people are similar in nature... but their habits are different..." As the three were walking, a clear and catchy recitation rang out.
"Sister, what's that sound?" Little Lori looked at June curiously.
The voice was somewhat childish, but full of vigor and vitality, instantly making her feel a sense of longing.
“They are students from the academy reading,” June said casually.
"Studying? It sounds like there are probably several hundred people doing that." Luo Xia was equally puzzled.
"Sister, their reading voices are so beautiful!" the little girl said enviously, looking towards the academy.
From a young age, she lived in a dark and sunless underground world.
My own body is very weak, and many of the children of the same age in my community are also sickly.
Therefore, I had few companions growing up, and my childhood was completely lacking.
But now, I see students reading and students doing activities on the playground.
The children's laughter and joy instantly filled her with longing.
