It seems... he and Adele still account for a pretty high proportion?This place has basically been distorted into what the two of them recognized.

The style of the Great Knight Collar is already cyberpunk enough, but now the city that is mapped out is even more cyberpunk.

What made Li Ang relieved was that the 10,000+ people sleeping in Sagazaki City, for some unknown reason, did not seem to have an impact on the environment here, otherwise what appeared in front of them should not have been a The alienated Great Knight Leader should be another Sagazaki City.

With the huge magnitude of 10,000+, it is almost impossible for a few of them to have any impact here.

This should be considered a good thing. Without the interference of these 10,000+ people, they can move more freely.

"Go this way and don't pass that torii gate."

Patting the Zhao father and son who were stunned beside him, Li Ang pointed to the dark corner on the other side that was not illuminated by neon lights.

Since what appears here is a completely modern city instead of the expected small mountain village, all previous plans will basically have to be torn down and restarted.

Although Liu Yi never told his origin, Li Ang could more or less guess it.

Over the years, she has silently maintained the city in the picture like a ghost. The Great God of Ming never seems to have changed his agent. In addition, Leon and Adele have discovered some interesting things about Sagazaki City. According to the legend of Hagoromo Shrine, Rui’s identity is almost revealed——

Before the bloody sacrifices were cut off, Taoyuan Village offered the last sacrifice to their gods.

Although there is no definite evidence, this is what Li Ang thinks.

Speaking of which, that world is somewhat similar to this one. In order to reduce the pressure on Daimyojin to maintain the world, only 'meaningful' things will be allowed to exist. Then why is most of the information about Hagoromo Shrine erased, only about sacrifices? What little part remains?

The answer is simple, because it means something to someone in Sagazaki City.

Therefore, according to Li Ang's speculation, when they come here, they are likely to experience again what Liu Yi experienced back then.

It seems that the complete 'god' cannot be mapped here, so they should play the role of the missing 'great god' in this matter. This may be the correct way to 'clear' this strange place.

Yi did not tell all the information he had, so Li Ang could only deduce these things from the clues he told.

Just finding the mapped 'Liu Yi' in this seemingly huge city is already troublesome. Now that it is interfered with by other people's cognition, no one can tell how the original story trajectory has been distorted. What has become of him, and he doesn’t know what will replace the ordinary sacrifice.

Speaking of which, due to the mixing of other people's perceptions, could there be areas like 'Chinatown' and 'Kabukicho' here?

If you think about it according to convention, this is indeed possible.

Since there are no clues, Li Ang decided to go look for these two places next. Since this place will be affected by cognition, then everything here should have a potential 'tendency' and will not be mapped out. Rui appeared in a corner where they couldn't find her anywhere.

Taking the three of them to bypass the surveillance on the periphery of the city, Li Ang and the others climbed over the tall wall and entered the city that was twisted into the 'Taoyuan City'.

Zhao Youcai, Zhao Anping and his son are both ordinary people. With the help of Li Ang and Xuancheng, the two of them barely climbed over the wall that was as high as a building.

From this point, we can also see that this place is unrealistic. Because of the height difference between the land and the mobile city, there will be an 'outer wall' like a wall. And this is not a mobile city. It is a bit funny that such a wall will appear. Well, it can only be attributed to the absurdity of imagination.

After standing firm on the ground, Li Ang looked around and found that they seemed to be in a place similar to an industrial area.

Chapter 1 Separation

"No one will come here, so we'll just hide here for now."

Li Ang said this amid the roar of machines in the factory.

No matter who thinks of it, the industrial area is an unpleasant place with high pollution and high risks. No one will take the initiative to go to this place except those who have to make a living in this place.

Therefore, in this city, there are also few people in the industrial areas.

Li Ang's perception swept across the entire area. Except for a few on-duty personnel who stayed here, there were only a few people in this huge area.

Moreover, the highly automated production lines are running around the clock, and the noise they make is the best cover. As long as they are not noticed by the surveillance here, they can move freely in this huge industrial area.

Of course, the surveillance in the industrial area is basically the same as normal, and the few Li Ang can detect and avoid it in advance using perception.

It's a bit funny to say that the smoke that Jingzhe mistakenly thought was cooking smoke was the pollution emitted from this industrial area. This can only be attributed to Jingzhe's preconceptions. He didn't expect that there would be a city hidden here.

Li Ang found an automated factory in a relatively remote location, and after destroying the security measures of the factory, he planned to use this place as a base for activities in the next period of time.

"What's next?"

After settling down, Xuancheng asked simply.

Rather than thinking about action plans independently, he preferred to obey the orders of others. In the absence of Jingzhe, it was naturally Li Ang who commanded him.

"Let me think about it... Let them rest here for one night. You follow them to prevent accidents. I will go out to explore the situation in this city."

After taking a look at the drowsy father and son who were almost lying down from exhaustion, Li Ang came up with an extremely simple plan.

"But isn't it almost evening now?" Xuancheng frowned, "Isn't it very conspicuous to go out at this time?"

"...Oh, you have never been to the Great Knight Territory. You really don't know the situation there."

After being stunned for a moment, Li Ang showed a hint of confusion, and then explained, "In fact, there is no 'night' in the true sense of the Great Knight Leader."

This city is mapped from their mental cognition, and will naturally bring the characteristics of their cognition, so this city does not just look like the Great Knights, but in a sense, This is another great knight's territory.

"After nightfall, artificial lights will replace the sun in the sky to illuminate this city. The Grand Knight Territory is even more prosperous at night than during the day. If you want to inquire about any news, night is more suitable."

After all, the Grand Knight has many businesses that are not suitable for carrying out during the day, such as underground arenas, etc. Li Ang is relatively familiar with these.

"……I see."

Xuancheng quickly accepted Li Ang's explanation, "Is there anything you need me to do?"

"Keep an eye on them and don't let them think about it for the time being," Li Ang said, "If nothing unexpected happens, I should be back before dawn.

Although it has been proven that the father and son can indeed have an impact here, Li Ang has not yet figured out how to use them. He can only throw them here first and prevent them from having too much contact with the city to avoid disturbing them. can play a role.

The influence of this kind of cognition is mutual. The more they know about the city, the harder it will be to influence it. This is also in line with the expectations of their father and son.

''

"Also... let's put these two paintings here with you first."

With that said, Li Ang was about to take off the scroll from his back, but Xuancheng stretched out his hand to stop him.

"No, it's safer if you take it with you. Just leave some food. I don't have the confidence to protect these two paintings." Xuancheng did not boast, but honestly admitted his lack of ability.

Although that's true, it would look strange to be running around carrying these two paintings... Li Ang couldn't help but scratch his head.

But he didn't insist on keeping these two paintings. Since Xuancheng had refused, he could just keep them with him.

"so be it."

Although Li Ang said he would try to come back before dawn, accidents always happen.

So after leaving enough food and water for them for more than a month, Li Ang left alone... Actually, he was not alone. There were still a bunch of people in the two paintings on his back, but they were now Everyone has their own things to be busy with. After they are done, you can contact him through the picture scroll.

Wandering aimlessly in the industrial area, Li Ang was using his own perception to observe the city from a more macro perspective.

Although it is impossible to find a specific person, it can help him understand more about this city that has just been 'created'.

This place perfectly fits the definition of the world five minutes ago hypothesis. This city was only created after they entered the middle section of the Tianyue Mountains.

If a city is compared to a huge machine, then if one of its parts fails, although the entire city will not collapse immediately, this day will come. Under Li Ang's observation, this Taoyuan City will So true.

There are too many contradictions here. The urban planning is unreasonable and meaningless but there is actually industry. Not to mention these, there is no place to grow crops in this place. Where does the food for people here come from? of?Was it created in a warehouse?

Although there won't be any problems in the short term, in the long run...it won't even take a month for the city to collapse due to various problems. This is probably the price of a group of people's cognition being roughly stitched together.

How these people will be affected by that time is still unknown.

"……found it."

Li Ang suddenly whispered.

In a large patchwork of blocks, Li Ang finally found the place he was looking for.

It was a building with very Yanguo characteristics. Not far from that area, Li Ang found some blocks with similar styles, but with slightly different details. If I read it correctly, it should be the style of Dongguo. This one Only the Eastern Kingdom's architectural style is so similar to that of the Yan Kingdom in the world.

This is the 'Chinatown' and 'Kabukicho' that Li Ang is looking for.

Without hesitation, Li Ang walked towards the direction of 'Chinatown'.

There was no special reason for him to choose this place, just because 'Chinatown' was closer to here.

Chapter 1 Blacksmith Shop

Leaving the industrial area, Li Ang naturally blended into the flow of people on the street, and no one found that he did not belong to this city.

Fortunately, the light pollution and colorful nightlife in the Grand Knights Territory only look a bit cyberpunk. In fact, regardless of the spiritual core or technological level, this place is far from the real cyberpunk. Otherwise, it is just a futuristic society. The identification is enough for him to drink a pot.

Li Ang originally wanted to stop a taxi, but he didn't have the city's currency on him, so he could only walk towards the two blocks he found on two legs.

But... it’s a very subtle feeling to see a group of people from the Yan Kingdom, speaking the language of the Eastern Kingdom, wearing outdated clothes from Leitania, living in a city like Casimir. There are people everywhere in this city. It's a sign of the rigid fusion of cultures from different countries, which seems extremely inconsistent.

Even the currency they use is metal coinage that has been eliminated by Leitania for a long time.

From these aspects, we can also see how much impact they had on this place after knowing the truth.

The Yanguo people, who are the most numerous among them, influenced the population type here. Li Ang and Adele influenced the very conspicuous but not very important architectural appearance here. After all, this place was reflected from Liu Yi's mind, so she retained this The language of the city.

As for the outdated Leitanian clothes and metal coins, they were probably influenced by a certain grandfather who carried them around. Neither Leon nor Adele had such a hobby of collecting antiques.

Even if he can only rely on his own two legs to travel, Li Ang's speed is not slow at all. When no one notices him, he doesn't have to hide his speed, just like an afterimage, passing by one after another. A dark and deserted alley.

When Li Ang arrived at the Yanguo-style building complex, a voice suddenly rang in his ears.

"Hey, this place looks familiar...could it be reflected from my memory?"

That is the sound of the year.

"Nian? Have you and Xi finished your work?" Li Ang asked with some surprise, but he didn't expect them to be so fast.

"No, no, Xi Zheng treats me as a coolie. I just saw something familiar here, so I came out to say something." Nian smacked his mouth and replied, "But maybe I saw it wrong. I It’s been a long time since I’ve been back to Yan Country, maybe I’ve made a mistake.”

After all, most cities in the Yan Kingdom were built by the Ministry of Industry. The styles are basically the same. There is not much difference between different cities. They are basically blue bricks, green tiles, ancient roads and stone bridges. I haven’t been back here for many years. Nian's impression of this place has become a little blurry, and I might have seen it wrong.

This is a normal speculation, but Nian obviously doesn't understand the characteristics of this place.

"No... before you realize that this place looks familiar, this may not be the place in your memory, but when you have this understanding, this place will become the place you are familiar with." Li Ang shook his head and said .

"Is this ghost place so evil?" Nian couldn't help but clicked his tongue.

She did not doubt whether what Li Ang said was true, but commanded, "Then you turn right at the intersection in front and go to the street behind to have a look? If it is really the place in my memory, maybe this place is made by My blacksmith shop.”

Li Ang chatted with her casually while moving in the direction directed by Nian.

"Blacksmith shop? I remember Jingzhe said, don't you work in the Ministry of Works? How come you still have time to be a blacksmith?"

"Hey, how long ago was that? Those guys at the Ministry of Industry don't treat people as human beings at all. They only have less than ten days of rest in a year. Do they really think that I won't get tired?"

Now that this matter was mentioned, Nian Yai complained indifferently, "Five cities on the [-]th floor, [-] institutions, and millions of terracotta warriors... It's a shame they can think of it. They want to make me tired." Die..."

"So I simply ran away and hid in Shang Shu."

"I'm different from that guy Xi. She has no problem staying alone for decades. If I were left alone for a month, I would be bored to the point of going crazy."

"So I opened a blacksmith shop in Shang Shu... Yes, yes, it's the one in front."

Nian's tone suddenly became a little excited. Through Li Ang's perspective, she could see a unique courtyard appearing beside the street in front of her. The number of chimneys was obviously several times more than in other courtyards.

"I didn't expect it to happen..."

Nian said with some emotion, "I have lived in this place for probably more than 20 years. When the neighbors nearby got older, I moved away. Now that I think about it, it was really relaxing. I can make a few kitchen knives and cook a few pots every day, and occasionally forge a sword, but I can still get by, at least it's much easier than when I was at the Ministry of Industry."

"Go in and have a look, go in and have a look."

Then Nian continued to encourage, "It's just that a lock can't stop you. I want to see if there is any difference between this place and my memory."

But this time Li Ang did not follow Nian's wishes.

"How long ago was this?"

Looking at the brand new door lock on the blacksmith shop door, Li Ang asked.

"Let me think about it...it's probably been eight or ninety years," Nian replied casually, "What's wrong?"

"I was just wondering if the residents nearby would recognize you if you appeared here, and if so, who would they be?"

After hearing Li Ang's question, Nian couldn't help but fell silent. After a while, he asked in a strange tone, "That's a good question... I said, is there another 'me' in this blacksmith shop?" ?”

"Then I don't think it's enough." Li Ang shook his head.

Li Ang's perception has swept across the blacksmith shop, and there is no one else inside.

"What name did you use when you lived here before? I'll go find the people around and find out what's going on."

"Of course it's still Nian. I don't have the habit of changing my name casually." Nian replied matter-of-factly.

This...can be considered hiding?Li Ang was speechless.

After getting the information he wanted, Li Ang turned and walked towards an alley behind him, where a sneaky old man was hiding there and watching him secretly.
