Chapter 1136 (2/2)
His heart stirred slightly upon seeing this, and he accepted the call. ”Ji Qi?”
”It's me. I've gotten into contact with Ms. Mo Lan and pa.s.sed on your message to her. She has agreed to meet you tomorrow at noon at a cafe near the parliament building.”
”Alright, tell me the address.”
After ending the call, Tang Wulin was struck by a sense of reminiscence. In reality, it had only been a few years since he had last seen Mo Lan, but those few years had been like an entire lifetime, and both of them had experienced far too many things.
Many major events that had changed them to an extreme degree had taken place during the past few years, and Tang Wulin could only heave a faint sigh at the thought of the tragedies that had befallen Mo Lan.
After paying the bill and emerging from the restaurant, Tang Wulin strolled along the streets of Bright City.
Bright City was now the largest city on the entire continent, and due to how early it had been developed, the central region of the city was extremely packed. The buildings in the area were looking rather squashed, and there were countless skysc.r.a.pers in all directions. Even though it was already very late into the night, the city was still as brightly-lit as if it were daytime.
The people who had endured a tiring day of work were now clearly a lot more relaxed as they walked on the city streets, and there were many inebriated young couples walking together in an intimate fas.h.i.+on. Some of them let loose a yell from time to time as if they were venting the fatigue and frustrations they'd acc.u.mulated during the day.
Tang Wulin felt as if it would be very difficult for him to integrate himself into this world of iron and steel. He couldn't help but think back to his life at Shrek Academy.
He loved the simple and pure environment in the academy, far removed from the deceitful and shady environments that one would often find in society. Unfortunately, the academy no longer existed, and he could think back to his experiences there as wonderful past memories. Thinking back now, even the fights against Wu Siduo and the others had been such enjoyable experiences.
A G.o.dslayer missile had erased all of this. He could still recall the scenes back when Wu Siduo had confessed to him. Now, everything had been reduced to dust. Wu Siduo no longer existed, and countless peers of his had most likely been wiped off the face of this world during the bombing.
Tang Wulin reflexively clenched his fists. He had never hated anything like he hated the Holy Spirit Cult before. This was no longer just a personal vendetta; it was a vendetta that belonged to Shrek Academy and even the entire human race.
The fact that the Holy Spirit Cult dared to attack the Blood G.o.d Legion clearly indicated that their goal was to destroy the entire human race, and in order to accomplish this goal, they were even willing to release the abyssal plane into this world.
Just Tang Wulin was walking, his shoulder suddenly b.u.mped into something, and he faltered slightly before reflexively raising his head. He had gotten lost in his own thoughts and unintentionally b.u.mped into a pa.s.serby on the street.
The person that he had b.u.mped into was clearly quite inebriated, and after b.u.mping into him, she immediately began to fall sideways.
Tang Wulin reached out to grab her before supporting her into a standing position. The strong scent of alcohol immediately wafted toward him alongside the woman's natural bodily fragrance, and it wasn't a very pleasant concoction, but it was rather alluring in a sense.
Tang Wulin's brows furrowed slightly as he looked at the woman who had practically fallen onto him. Her eyes were a little bleary and out of focus as she stared at Tang Wulin, and she pressed her hands against Tang Wulin's chest. ”Wh, what are you doing? Get away from me!”
Tang Wulin helped her into an upright position. ”Be more careful when you're walking.”
After giving her that brief piece of advice, he released her and prepared to leave.
He didn't like the smell of alcohol, especially when it was coming from a woman in such a potent dose. Alcohol was something that was very unfamiliar to Tang Wulin, but he knew that it could numb someone, and it was undoubtedly unsafe for a woman to drink so much, especially with all of the shady individuals roaming the city streets at this late hour.
Even though he had only taken a fleeting glance at her, he could tell that the woman was quite an exceptional beauty. Her looks were quite stunning, and her figure was also very exceptional. She wore a singlet and a pair of denim shorts, revealing a pair of long and fair legs. There was a pair of high heels on her feet, and her long hair had been arranged into a simple ponytail that trailed down the back of her head. Her cheeks were quite flushed, and she was wearing some heavy makeup, including blue eyeliner. However, the makeup didn't look excessive and vulgar, and this was most likely an indication that it was very high-quality makeup.
