"Arlo, why don't you go to the city Lord's residence to sign up for the guard?" On the street, Alai asked Locke curiously with his head on his side.
Arlo is a fake name that Locke casually says. The girl of peach man calls very fluently.
"Not interested." Locke's eyes wandered around. Locke, who had participated in the war between foster and Sherlock, raised his eyes and guessed the possible defense points of this activated goblin city.
Locke is also a top student of Princeton Imperial College and knight perseverance branch. He still has this vision.
"But I heard that the city Lord gave me a good treatment." The peach girl still didn't understand.
With the faster and faster attack pace of ectopic surface invaders, many areas suitable for activating goblins are occupied. Activating goblins have simple conditions for life. A little space, soil and water are enough. However, many activating goblins starve to death in the wild every day.
Not all the earth can be eaten. Only by eating the earth containing specific elements and absorbing the special energy can the activated goblins maintain their life.
Like the honey peach Alai family, apart from their parents working in mist City, Alai and his brother also need to do what they can, or their family will starve.
There are many pools around fog city. It is not a problem to supply the soil and water needed to activate the goblins. Therefore, the city has accepted so many foreign refugees.
Alai can't understand Locke's idea, but he is not close to Locke, so Alai can't persuade too much.
"Let's go over there and have a look." Alec took Locke's hand and walked to the center of the city.
The activation goblin world has not yet formed a special monetary system. In many cases, it is barter. Locke readily took out the precious tree seeds or fallen leaves for the activation goblins, making Alai think he is a rich man.
The main purpose of those tree seeds or fallen leaves is to feed the activated goblins into the soil. It seems that some elements contained in tree seeds or fallen leaves are integrated into the soil, and then the elements are obtained by eating the soil.
This is the advanced method for high-level activated goblins. Magicians speculate that the generation of activated goblins is also related to this eating habit of activated goblins.
In the middle of the city, in addition to a white and transparent sculpture of strange activated goblins, it is a small square.
Around the square, there are countless activated goblins.
"What's that?" Locke pointed to the sculpture and asked, he really hasn't seen this kind of activated goblin.
"Oh, that's our previous Lord, Lord abibo." Peach man Alai said.
"Lord..." Locke's expression is serious. The activated goblins also have their own hierarchy. Lord, that's the honor that only the secondary activated goblins can have.
It seems that this fog city is really not very simple.
Just like the material of the sculpture, the strange appearance of the activated goblin Lord reminds Locke of those crystalline plants outside the city.
"What race is Lord abibo?" Locke asked casually.
"It's the Jingguo people. The current city Lord is the descendant of Lord abibo." Peach Girl Alai said.
Jingguo people have a small number in the activated goblin world and belong to ethnic minorities. In the nearby area, only mist city has this Jingguo people group.
Alai thought that there was no Jingguo people in the place where Locke used to live, so he had no doubt about Locke's question.
Jingguo people have their unique talent. They can resonate with the Jingjing tree outside the city, so as to induce the Jingjing tree to release the crystal fog. The fog city can use a natural crystal fog as a hiding barrier, relying on the talent of the city owner and his people.
Locke silently remembered the Jingguo people. It was the first time he heard of this branch of activated goblins.
Originally, because of the talent of Jingguo people, fog city belongs to the silent and nameless city among the surrounding activated goblin cities. There are few residents. How can you think that now it has become a haven for the surviving activated goblins. Nearly 100 activated goblin refugees escape here every day.
Thinking of the tragic situation of the activated goblins in the face of the invaders, Alai, a sentimental little girl, was much depressed. Alai was the only female in the inspection team outside the city because Alai wanted to do something for his race.
"Arlo, go and sign up for the city guard!" Suddenly, Alai ran to Locke. Two fluffy, smooth hands grabbed Locke tightly and said solemnly.
I don't know how many activated goblin lives Locke's hands. For the first time, he saw such a humanized expression in the eyes of an activated goblin.
Maybe it was Alai's request that Locke couldn't bear to refuse, or maybe Locke had some ideas in his heart. The next morning, with Alai's recommendation, Locke went to the conscription office not far from the city Lord's house.
"Arlo, come on!" Outside, Alai waved his fist at Locke and cheered.
Alai will follow the patrol team to patrol outside the city in the morning. He can't accompany Locke.
"You'd better not go to the southwest." After hesitating for a long time, Locke told Alai before he left.
"Why?" Alai wondered.
"Anyway, don't go there... Well, I escaped from there. I know there's danger there." Locke Muling's ambiguous answer made Alai nod.
Although we have only known each other for two days, Locke has a good sense of Alai, a peach girl. Subconsciously, he doesn't want to see an accident happen to this kind-hearted ectopic girl.
The camp of the holy tower army is in the southwest. The white crystal fog not only covers the internal fog city, but also covers the external sight of the activated goblins in the fog city. They may not know that a number of nearly thousands of invaders are near them, and the danger is coming.
Watching Alai's team disappear in their sight, the voice of the activation goblin recruitment office behind them came, "next, pear man alo!"
"Well, here we are!" Locke returned his voice.
