Doomsday Totem

Chapter 118 Culture
After a slightly perfunctory self-introduction, Qin Keer led the young man to the temple office.

Not long after, the two walked along the exquisite stone path one after the other.The young man followed behind pushing his scooter. He seemed to be very interested in everything around him. He stopped and looked around from time to time, looking at the flowers and rain stones under his feet, looking at the flowers and plants on the roadside, and staring at the road signs for a while. Or watch billboards for a long time...

Seeing the country bumpkin's appearance on the other side, Qin Ke'er was furious, and urged impatiently: "Hurry up~ everyone in the office is off work later, who will handle the formalities for you~"

"Okay." The young man responded, and followed closely behind.

The two walked for a while on the small path on the outskirts of the city, and came to an old building.The building is five stories high, and the exterior walls are made of red bricks.Due to the age, the red bricks are dark red, with pits and pits on the surface, which looks very old.But it doesn't give people a dilapidated feeling, but it has an ancient and elegant texture.

"Here~ that's it." Qin Ke'er pointed to the red-painted door that was about to fade away.Following her gaze, she saw a plaque hanging above the gate, with a line of simple and vigorous characters written on it: "The Office of the Ancient Temple in the Western Continent."

"En." The young man nodded, expressing his understanding.Afterwards, Qin Ke'er said that she had some private matters to leave for a while, and ordered Zhang Tie to go through the formalities first, and then wait here for her to come back.She said with emphasis: "There are a lot of bad people here, don't run around."

"Okay." The young man nodded cooperatively.Looking at this honest guy, Qin Ke'er frowned imperceptibly, turned and left.

The young man parked his motorcycle and walked to the door, straightened his sleeves and collar, opened the door and walked in.

After entering, there is a front hall, with a red carpet on the floor, floral wallpaper on the wall, and small oil paintings hanging on the wall.There is an old wooden cabinet by the wall, and some decorative utensils and objects are placed on the wooden cabinet.The decoration and furnishings of the entire room give people a rustic and heavy feeling.

A thin old man was sitting on the side of the door, when he saw the young man coming in, he got up and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"Elder Ebony," replied the young man.

"Hmm..." The old man at the door groaned, and asked, "What's your business?" Then he explained, "I haven't received an appointment notice from Elder Ebony, so I can't let you go up."

"My name is Zhang Tie, and I am from the Northern Wilderness Continent. Please inform me." The young man said politely.

The old gatekeeper frowned and thought for a while, then clapped his hands suddenly, and said suddenly: "I remember!" Then, he pointed to the corner of the front hall and said, "Turn right over there, take the elevator to the fifth floor, Elder Ebony is waiting for you."

The young man thanked the old doorman, took the elevator up to the fifth floor, and knocked on the door of the office.

A hale and hearty old man greeted him.He looked at the young man carefully for a while, and asked, "Young man, I am Wu Muduan, may I ask your name..."

"Slag Norses," answered the young man.

"Okay! Come in!" Ebony Duanmian pulled Iron Slag into the door with surprise, poured him a cup of hot tea, and then said: "We have finished the things the messenger told us. Here is your admission notice." After finishing speaking, Wu Muduan took out a scroll from his arms and handed it to Iron Slag.

Iron Slag took it, opened it and looked at it for a while, and it read:

[Central Yincheng Military Academy Admission Notice]

After reading the contents of the scroll, Tie Slag solemnly expressed his thanks to Wu Muduan.Ebony Duan waved his hand, saying it should be.Then he told him that this is the base camp of the temple, so it must be well hidden.From now on, his external identity will be "Guarded Student of War Bear Temple".

Wu Muduan explained that the Temple of the War Bear is an ancient armed force with no subordinate branches, and there will be no crowds and rumors.Wu Muduan also instructed that at present only he and the messenger know the true identity of Tie Slag, and he told Tie Slag not to mention it to anyone, including people from the ancient temple.

"It's been a long time, and many people's beliefs are not firm..." Wu Muduan sighed to himself, "We are sorry for our ancestors, we didn't teach the younger generation well."

Facing the old man's exclamation, Tie Slag didn't know how to answer, so he chose to remain silent.

Sensing Tie Slag's embarrassment, Wu Muduan chuckled, and said mockingly: "When you are old, you talk a lot. Young people don't mind." Tie Slag shook his head and said no.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk..."

Just then, there was a knock on the office door.Wu Muduan came in, and the door opened as soon as he finished speaking.Qin Ke'er came in pretty, then saluted Wu Muduan respectfully, and said softly: "Elder, Ke'er is here."

"Come on, young people, let's get to know each other. This is Zhang Tie, a student from the Northern Wilderness Continent. He is a descendant of our Zhanxiong lineage." Wu Muduan introduced to her with a smile on his face.

Qin Ke'er didn't answer, but looked at Tie Slag hesitantly.The latter stood up knowingly, and said to Wu Muduan: "Elder, we already know each other, she was the one who came to pick me up just now."

Seeing this, Wu Muduan chuckled, saying that people tend to forget things when they are old.Then he chanted, saying that they are classmates in the same college, and they must be diligent in communication in the future, take care of each other, and so on.

Listening to Elder Ebony's words, Qin Ke'er slandered endlessly in his heart.This is not introducing her to her classmates, it is simply introducing her to a blind date.The elder's benevolent demeanor and his expectant tone seemed to wish that they would open the room immediately and have a good time, so that they could hold a younger one next year.

Who will marry this bumpkin?Could it be that he ran to the Northern Wilderness to plow the fields?Qin Ke'er thought so in her heart, but her mouth responded sweetly a few times.

"Try to help Zhang Tie get familiar with the environment here before the start of school, so you don't have to come back during the period, and the hourly salary will be paid to you, okay?" Wu Muduan said.

"Okay." Qin Ke'er replied obediently.

In this way, Tie Slag and Qin Ke'er bid farewell to Elder Ebony, and prepared to go to the Central Silver City Military Academy together.

After leaving the gate of the office, Tie Slag got on the motorcycle and motioned for Qin Ke'er to sit on it.Qin Ke'er pursed her lips, saying that she was not used to riding a motorcycle, and it was not far anyway, so she could just walk back.Helpless, Tie Slag had no choice but to push the motorcycle and follow behind Qin Keer.After all, he had just arrived here, he was not familiar with the place, and he was the headquarters of the temple, plus he was a wanted criminal in Yincheng, so it was really difficult for him to wander around.

After walking for more than an hour, the outline of the city gradually appeared in front of us.Looking from a distance, there are five islands of different sizes floating above the city.

This is the legendary Eternal City, the miracle of mankind.Although he had imagined the city's appearance in Zi Yanqing's description before, and had seen sketch illustrations in books, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, he knew how magnificent and majestic the city was.

The outskirts of the city are tall and thick walls, which stretch as far as the eye can see, all the way to the sky!Such a huge project is simply not like the work of human beings, but more like a miracle of the gods who created the world.

There is not an inch of land around the city that is barren, either white stone roads, green grass, blooming flowers, towering old trees.

"Isn't it beautiful?" Qin Ke'er turned around and asked.Seeing Tie Slag's shocked look, she recalled when she first came here, and there was a common feeling in her heart.

"Well, it's okay." Tie Slag replied with a nod.He may have seen more flowers today than he has seen in his life.

"It's okay?" Qin Ke'er couldn't help frowning, she didn't expect this country bumpkin from the Great Northern Wilderness to be so arrogant, and when he saw this human palace, he just said "it's okay".For this reason, she raised an inexplicable anger.

"It's okay." Tie Slag looked at the magnificent city and replied subconsciously.

"This is the greatest city in human history, the Eternal City." Qin Ke'er emphasized.

"Really?" Tie Slag asked casually, as for the answer, he didn't care at all.

Seeing the other party's downplaying attitude, Qin Ke'er felt even more upset, isn't she just a junk picker from the Great Northern Wilderness?Why are you so dragged!Her gaze was fixed, and she looked straight at Iron Slag.

However, Tie Slag's attention had long been attracted by the spectacular scene in front of him, and he didn't notice Qin Ke'er's change at all.His indifferent expression and casual tone aroused Qin Ke'er's anger even more.If eyes could kill, then he would have died, and he has died many times, the kind of tragic death...

"What's the use of the city wall being so high?" Tie Slag asked suddenly.

"Of course it's to defend against foreign enemies, how stupid~" Qin Ke'er took the opportunity to curse.

"Aircraft can't stop it, mechs can't stop it, missiles can't stop it, cannonballs can't stop it, and even power armor can't stop it..." Tie Slag asked, "Who can it defend against?"

"Ah..." Qin Ke'er was at a loss for words for a moment, she didn't know how to answer, she didn't expect this country bumpkin to be knowledgeable.

"Resist wild beasts?" Iron Slag prompted.

"Yes..." Qin Ke'er nodded, regained her confidence, and said, "You're smart~"

"The question is, where did the beasts come from?" "Ah..." "Even if there are wild beasts, do I need to use a city wall to defend?" "Ah..." "Do I need to use a city wall tens of meters high to defend?"

"Look at that...then..." Qin Ke'er suddenly pointed at the highest floating island and shouted.

"What's that?" Tie Slag asked.

"Eternal Lighthouse." Qin Ke'er successfully changed the subject.

"I know, there is also the land bestowed by the gods, the solid fortress, the crown area, the upper city..."

"Wow~ Xueba~ Zhang Tie, you are so good, you must be a good student in school." Qin Ke'er pretended to be admiring, thinking that this country bumpkin is really difficult to deal with.As the saying goes, hooligans are not scary, but they are cultured.
