The End of the Earth

"you're awake."

"Thank you for saving me. I feel different now."

The woman clasped her hands and felt a strength she had never felt before.

At this moment, there was a sudden shaking in the passage.

"earthquake?"

"No, the mobile city has started heating up the furnace and starting the engine. If we don't enter the mobile city now, we will have to rely on our own legs to move in the wilderness.

Follow me!

After saying that, the woman left Xiang San's sight like the wind.

"Take me with you!"

Xiang San tried his best to chase after her and barely caught up with her. The woman was obviously moving faster than before.

If it weren't for his body being strengthened by the step-enhancing drugs, he might not be able to keep up with the other party.

The woman opened a circular gate, and the two of them climbed up the ladder back into the mobile city.

"So the Hell is underground outside the Moving City?"

The woman looked back at him in confusion and said, "Don't you know about the Underground Hell? It's not underground, but inside a king beast. It's a mobile prison."

Xiang San stared at the woman in a daze for a long time before coming to his senses: "Are you saying that we were inside a giant beast just now?"

"Yes, this is the only gentle giant beast that humans have come into contact with so far. No one knows where it came from, but we only know that part of its body is made up of various minerals.

It didn't seem to take much effort to capture it because it was so gentle, or maybe it was just lazy.

It is either eating minerals or sleeping. According to existing data, its sleeping period is about ten years, and it has recently entered its sleeping period again.

The bottom of hell is in its first stomach. The entrance here is just a station for human forces to feed it. It was occupied by Prunan Mobile City a long time ago.

So once the Underground is closed, it will essentially be permanently isolated from the surface world."

Xiang San sucked in a breath of cold air. He thought that the basement was just tightly guarded. No wonder he always felt that there were few guards along the way, and even the supervision was extremely simple and rough.

"I've really learned a lot. I haven't even asked you what your name is."

"Ayu"

"What's your last name?"

"My last name is Jimona Koylen..."

"Stop! Are you from the Azure People? Elf?"

"No, my parents are elves. I was adopted by them."

Xiang San nodded: "No wonder you don't look like an elf at all. Another question is, who sent you here?"

"Your family."

"Family? Amman is still alive?"

Xiang San excitedly grabbed Ah Yu's hand, but Ah Yu pulled back her hand and explained, "Don't you know you have a child?"

"My child?"

"Let's not talk about that for now. According to your daughter, I should take you to see a man named Vic John."

"Vic? I know this guy, but you don't know him?"

"Take me to him first. Your daughter will tell you what you want to know when you see her."

The shaking of the mobile city gradually stabilized, and the propulsion device and giant tracks began to operate. It is difficult for a huge ground mobile body to rotate only by relying on giant wheels. The Prunan Mobile City also has a powerful propulsion device to assist in moving forward.

After entering Prunan, they found that there were many guards on the streets and checkpoints, and all the notice boards had notices about Xiang San's various crimes, as well as videos of him eating humans.

After seeing this, Ayu covered her mouth and looked at Xiang San in surprise.

"Don't look at me like that. They made this up. I don't like it."

"It doesn't matter if you like it. You are An An's father, and that's what matters most."

"I've become an ogre. I can't openly appear on the street in my current state."

Under A Yu's gaze, Xiang San sat cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes.

A large mechanical insect crawled out from Xiang San's back, but A Yu remained calm.

The spikes on the surface of the mechanical spine worm extended photon tentacles into Xiang San's face. After a while of wriggling, Xiang San's face turned into a strange face.

"How about this face?"

"It smells like an oriental man. I'm curious, was that mechanical bug you, or was it this body?"

“The body is just a carrier, it’s all me.

And you need to change your clothes. Although tight combat uniforms are suitable for combat, your figure makes me feel a little uncomfortable.

Let’s keep a low profile.”

A Yu's face flushed slightly as she nodded, which made Xiang San raise his eyebrows. It seemed that this girl rarely came into contact with men.

It was still the pub on the second floor. There were many pubs nearby, and many of them had more luxurious decorations.

But Xiang San still chose this place. There was nothing he could do about it. He didn't have a mobile terminal and was short of money.

The tavern was still filled with the aroma of wine, and men and women were busy with their "primitive" activities in the corner.

Xiang San took A Yu and walked towards the familiar waiter as if they were coming to the pub for the first time.

"Um... can I have two free drinks?"

The waiter who was wiping the clean wine glasses was stunned. Why did these words sound so familiar?

Xiang San looked around awkwardly. The waiter was still in a daze and hadn't come to his senses yet.

The people around were drinking and their faces were red, laughing at this strange face.

"Dude, you have no money and you're still playing with such a young girl, why don't you give her to me and I'll buy you a couple of drinks?

Hahaha"

As soon as these words came out, the mocking voices around him became louder.

Faced with such dirty words, Ayu seemed a little unhappy.

Xiang San signaled her not to move and shook his head.

"Shut up, everyone!"

The scene seemed to freeze in an instant, and there was no more sighing.

"It's John's family, stop talking."

The people in the tavern were whispering and chatting with each other.

The waiter hurriedly prepared the best wine, because John's family is now in charge of the entire Prunan.

Vic looked at Xiang San drunkenly and shook his head.

"Look, it seems I really drank too much. I thought you were him."

Vic grinned drunkenly and patted Xiang San's right cheek.

In the past, Xiang San would never tolerate anyone slapping him in the face.

But who asked this guy to treat him to drinks twice in a row?

With that, Vic fell drunkenly onto the bar.

“Is he okay???”

The waiter asked Xiang San in panic.

"I'm his friend. I'll help him get home. The wine money..."

"It's all right! It's all right! It's free, it's free."

Xiang San chuckled secretly and asked Ah Yu to help him walk out with Vic. As they walked out, the drinkers stared at them intently. It was unclear whether their fiery gazes were directed at Ah Yu or at the drunk Vic.

After they left, Xiang San comforted her: "You're not used to it, are you?"

Ah Yu nodded and said, "I, actually, rarely interact with strangers.

I don’t like the way those people look at me.”

“It’s clear that these people are just pitiful creatures in this world, living today without knowing what tomorrow will bring.

Alcohol and women are their life-saving elixirs.

Especially women like you, who have a fatal temptation to them.

Being able to suppress it is a kind of wisdom."

"how about you?"

After asking, Ayu felt a little regretful.

"Haha, of course sister, I'm a real man.

It’s just that I’m better at pretending than them.”

Ah Yu stammered, her eyes evasive. "How did you know, how did you know, that he would come here?"

Xiang San knew that A Yu was trying to change the subject to hide her embarrassment, so he didn't point it out.

“Sometimes, you don’t do something until you are sure of it.

Intuition is also a guiding light.”

"He's so drunk now, it seems he can't help us."

"I'll help him sober up."

Xiang San grabbed Vic's collar with his left hand and slapped him repeatedly with his right hand.

A Yu covered her mouth and looked at Xiang San in amazement, then looked at Vic's flushed face, which seemed to be even more swollen.
