Chapter 1569： return to the present (1/2)

At the end of the city of night, a dark fog stood in front of Gawain and Amber like a wall. Even the twisted and stacked houses look even more bizarre, while the bustling "people" on the street all stop 100 meters away from this foggy wall.

Gawain stopped and looked up at the dense fog in front of him: "Is this the exit?"

"Yes, this is the exit of the city of night. After crossing this mist, you can return to the real world," Chen Xing nodded lightly. "The current location is near the camp between the forest and the wilderness."

Gawain nodded, and then looked back at the direction he came from. He saw the row upon row of houses extending into the distance along the empty and solid streets. The pale street lamps were dotted on both sides of the dim street like stars. The blurred people seem to be looking at this side from a distance. Some of them are the aborigines of the Shadow World, and others are the "Descendants of the Lost" who have human-like facial features like Morningstar.

"...If I have time, I'd like to spend more time in this city," Gawain said casually, "I'm really interested in the way you live here and how this city works on weekdays, and I'm also Curious how the lost descendants from other countries who live with you see the 'outside world'."

"Yeah, if I have time, I would like to introduce my home to you two, but there are more important things waiting for you," Chen Xing smiled, "so it's time to say goodbye - But please rest assured, this city will always open its doors to you, the hostess has obtained the authority of the city of night, she can find a shortcut to here in the shadow world, we welcome you again at any time."

Gao Wen nodded slightly when he heard the words, and then walked towards the mist, Amber couldn't help but looked back and looked rather nostalgic, but in the end she pursed her lips and followed Gao with her short legs upside down. Wen's footsteps, the two disappeared one after the other in the thick fog.

A slightly cold and wonderful touch was fleeting, and Gawain felt that he had passed through a thin-film-like "substance", and in this short moment, the world he perceived had completely changed, accompanied by the rapidity of light and shadow. Shaking and reorganizing, a gleam of light appeared in the darkness he saw, and then the forest, the wilderness, the sky, and the clouds on the horizon began to emerge from the gleam—as if the dream faded in the early morning, and the colorful and vibrant reality world Come on!

In the next second, he felt down-to-earth, stepping back on the land of the real world and seeing the bright and rich colors again made his heart suddenly relaxed, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath. .

To be honest, although the shadow kingdom dominated by Lady Night is not dangerous, the pale and monotonous desert and the eternally dark city are definitely not a pleasant beauty. If he didn't come out, he suddenly returned to the outside world at this time, and he felt the lingering feeling of depression in his heart before.

However, compared with him as a "normal person", Amber, who was born to be friendly with Shadow, obviously had a different feeling. As soon as her figure emerged from the air, she muttered: "Hey, I really feel reluctant to leave from there... "

Hearing this, Gawain couldn't help but glance at her sideways: "What's the matter, are you still planning to live in the Shadow God Kingdom?"

"It's not enough to live for a long time-but I really considered whether to live in that city for a few days every few days," Amber waved his hands when he heard Gawain's words, but then he became very excited, "At the beginning I haven't felt it yet, but I think about it now... That's my city! My city! Didn't you hear what Morningstar said? 'The Mistress of the City of Night', hehe, I never thought that I would one day To have such a title..."

"It's okay, don't be shy," Gawain knew at a glance that the goose was about to float again, and immediately put his hand on her head (physically preventing floatation), and pouted as he pressed down, "You still have a title. It's called the Deputy Lord of the Kingdom of God, and I haven't seen how many plus marks you have in your combat ability - this kind of honorary title is enough to listen to. You can find two eloquent bards who can compile a book for you in the afternoon without any duplicates. Yes, does that work?"

After he finished speaking, he paused and added: "In addition, you should not be able to live in the city of night every three to five, not because of other things, mainly because you go to the border of the kingdom of God and no one will be able to find you. Now, in case of an emergency, we can't contact you, and we don't know if Ms. Ye can connect to the Internet... When you look back and confirm that the magic net can be set up in the city of night, you should consider fishing. "

When Amber heard this, he curled his lips: "I just said it casually, I might not be able to get used to it if I move there. But then again, when I fish, I have to keep a fish that can be used at any time. To drag back the communicator for overtime work, is this still a fish?"

Gawain stared blankly at the righteous Shadow Assault Goose beside him, and for a while he only said one sentence: "The key question is this?"

Amber didn't seem to hear Gawain's question at all, she just took a breath, as if she was using the cold air in the early morning to cool her a little boiling head, and only said with a little emotion after she was refreshed: "But then again... This trip to the Shadow Kingdom is really, in your words, it's like a lifetime - it's really like a lifetime, too many things happened."

Gawain didn't speak for a while, he just couldn't help but think of the fifty-year dream of a dreamlike and illusory life that Madam Ye weaved for him, the choice between "mortals" and "gods", and the world In the still precarious future, he stood in contemplation for a long time. There are too many facts in the Shadow Kingdom, which may take a long time to sort out - but soon, his contemplation was interrupted.

A low and majestic dragon roar suddenly came from the sky, and the black dragon stirred its wings to pass over the heads of Gawain and Amber. In the increasingly bright rays of light at dawn, the steel mechanical structure on the edge of the dragon's wings appeared striking. She had obviously noticed the two figures on the surface, so after a roar, she began to circle and gradually landed. Gawain saw the giant dragon falling more than ten meters in front of him. After it stopped, a figure disappeared. Jumped from there.

It was Duchess Victoria Wilder in a white dress and a silver fox shawl.

Then another light curtain suddenly emerged from the air. The huge body of the black dragon was condensed and reshaped in the light curtain, and the figure of the black-haired maid, Maggie, stepped out of it.

Amber shrank her neck the moment she saw Victoria appear, and then turned her head to look at Gawain: "Okay, the family members have appeared, you will be in charge of the negotiations later, you are her direct superior..."

Gawain didn't pay any attention to this shadow attack goose who could touch it. He just sorted out his expression and mood a little, and then calmly greeted the pair of master and servant who were walking towards him.

"Your Majesty," Victoria came to Gawain and bowed to pay homage first, "I'm glad to see you and Miss Amber have returned safely - news came from the City of Thousand Towers that you will appear in this area at dawn today, Maggie and I came one step ahead."

"So that's how it is..." Gawain understood why someone came to meet him as soon as he and Amber "landed", and then he asked curiously, "Today... how long have we been gone?"

"It's been seven full days, and we have completely lost your news," Victoria lowered her head, her eyes had been looking around since just now, but she still answered Gawain's question first, "But the City of a Thousand Towers has always been Keep in touch with us, promise your safety, and don't worry at home, everything is in order."

"Well, very good," Gawain nodded slightly, he noticed Victoria's gaze, and after a moment of hesitation, he said, "Modir... didn't come back with us."
