Last Totem Novel - Chapter 267
Chapter 267 First
After dinner, Tie Zha and Eva Green returned to the living room and chatted for a while before returning to their rooms to sleep.
Before they parted, Eva’s expression suddenly froze. She said seriously, “Student Tie Zha, although I believe in True Divinity, I don’t have much hatred for insects, so …” She hesitated for a moment and said, “I will keep your secret.”
“Thank you.” Tie Zha turned around and walked to Eva, solemnly nodding to her.
“But …” She hesitated for a moment before continuing, “Her Highness the Princess has a slightly different attitude towards insecticides …”
“I know, that’s why I never came looking for her.” Tie Zha revealed a bitter smile and said.
Eva hurriedly explained, “Student Tie Zha, please forgive me. This may not be her true thoughts … She is the princess of the Temple. The camp has decided her position.”
“No …” Iron Cinder shook her head and sighed, “You don’t have to lie to me. This is her true thoughts. She hates bugs and even feels that we shouldn’t exist …” Hearing this, Eva subconsciously grabbed her hand and her face turned slightly pale. Then, Iron Slag took a deep breath and said, “Actually, I can understand that she has received such an education since she was young. This is not her fault, so please rest assured that I will not hurt her. When the time comes, I will quietly leave.” After saying that, Tie Zha bowed slightly to Eva and left the living room.
Looking at the figure disappearing at the end of the passageway, Eva closed her eyes. After a while, she opened her eyes again. She sighed deeply and returned to the guest room to rest
He was speechless all night …
The next day, at noon, Tie Zha woke up and got out of bed with a refreshing air. After a simple wash, he came to the living room. At first glance, Eva Green was sitting in a corner of the living room, holding a white porcelain plate in one hand and a white porcelain cup in the other, seemingly drinking tea, while an old butler was standing beside her with his hands down. At this moment, she was wearing a pure white dress, with a pair of high-heeled sandals on her feet. She leaned forward slightly and sat on an exquisite rattan chair, like a lady in an oil painting. She was elegant and quiet.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, she slowly put down the cup, turned her head and smiled at Tie Zha. “Good afternoon, Commander.”
“Good afternoon, boss.” Tie Zha replied. Originally, he wanted to learn from her and add the word “Lord”, but when it came to his mouth, he really couldn’t say it out loud.
“Are you feeling better?” She asked with concern.
“Much better.” Tie Zha replied. Perhaps he felt that this answer was a bit perfunctory. He then explained in detail, “Strenuous exercise may not be enough, but it is no longer a big problem.”
“Really?” Eva smiled and pursed her lips as she reminded him.
“Uh” Tie Zha immediately recognized the meaning behind her words. She was alluding to his and Mu Yuqinxin’s “intense exercise”. However, his face was always thick, and he quickly recovered from the slightly awkward atmosphere. Then, he pulled away the rattan chair beside Eva and sat down with the golden saber.
“Have a cup of black tea.” Tie Zha turned to the old butler and said.
“Please wait a moment, sir.” The old butler nodded and left the living room to prepare the things in the kitchen.
“Will you accompany me to the Upper City to buy some clothes later?” Eva asked after the old butler walked away.
“I still have to go to Twilight Manor for dinner at six o’clock in the evening.” Said Tie Zha.
“It’ll be fine in a few hours. Do you want to wear this dress to accompany Her Highness for dinner?” Eva looked at Tie Zha and said. The latter lowered his head and looked at the tattered and bloody military uniform on his body. He nodded to the former and said, “Alright, I haven’t been to the upper city yet.”
Just like that, after drinking tea, Eva instructed the butler to prepare the car. A few minutes later, the driver drove an extended black sedan to the front door of the villa, picked up the hostess and guests, and drove north out of the Central Silver City Military Academy. After passing through the twelve stone pillars of the Round Table Warrior Gate, the car circled along Central Street and headed north …
About an hour later, the car drove through several crowded lanes to the heart of Central Silver City. Along the way, the buildings here grew taller and taller, mostly between two hundred and three hundred floors. From below, it looked like a gigantic sword stabbing straight into the ground. The hilt of the sword shot straight into the clouds with an awe-inspiring aura.
Not long after entering the central area, the car turned into a large apron. Then, a golden airship flew over and stopped in front of the car.
“Respected Assistant Green, good afternoon.” The captain wearing a white hat with the co-pilot and two female waitresses quickly stepped down from the airship and greeted him.
“Uptown, New Edmonton Mall.” Eva got out of the car without stopping for a moment. As she instructed, she took Tie Zha up the small metal telescopic ladder and entered the airship. The interior of the airship was about twenty square meters long and narrow, similar to a train carriage, but with couches, wine cabinets, and dining cabinets on both sides, not ordinary seats.
“This is Her Royal Highness’ exclusive airship, the Golden Envoy.” After sitting down, Eva introduced.
“How much is this?” Looking around at the luxurious decorations in the boat, Tie Zha asked without any reason. It had to be said that for a person from Tieshan Town, the first attribute of any item was its value.
“That core airframe made by Halley industry, RC manufactures seamless metal hoses and assemblies, A superdense alloy engine is provide, Seventy-two sets of meteorite ejectors, Sixteen sets of black hole turbo thrusters, A group of abyss transistor arrays, Far East Black Mystic Iron Alloy Steel Plate, Number 5 Desert Gold Alloy Support, Alpha Mysterious Silver Alloy Chassis … “Eva explained one by one. Tie Zha was dumbfounded to hear this. He didn’t expect that each part of this small airship was worth a lot, and each part was comparable to the cost of three Tiger-type mecha.
He knew that You Ge was rich, but he didn’t know that she was so rich. Simply put, the money he had earned from his childhood in Tieshan Town for so many years was not enough to buy a single part of this airship …
At this moment, he finally understood the definition of an ant. The total income of the millions of people in Tie Shan Town after a year of hard work might not be comparable to her “Golden Envoy”. As for this airship, it was only used as a means of transportation between the floating city and the ground. From this, it can be seen that You Ge’s proprietary aircraft, the Golden Battleship, is bound to be priceless, and its specific cost is probably an astronomical figure.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh …”
Amidst the sound of light jets, the golden airship slowly rose into the air and flew towards the largest floating silver city above …
A moment later, the airship slowly landed on top of a large building. Walking down the metal telescopic ladder, he saw two rows of staff standing on the small apron. Front row is female staff, uniformly dressed in a red dress, red vest, wearing a white shirt, wearing a blue and white tie, wearing a small red beret; The back row was filled with male staff, all dressed in dark suits, orange-red ties, and a sliver of shiny leather shoes.
“Welcome to New Edmonton Mall, Assistant Green and Guild Leader Sacha.” When the two VIPs stepped on the turquoise rubber floor of the small apron, the two rows of staff bowed at the same time and greeted them neatly.
Then, a middle-aged man wearing a crimson tie walked out of the queue and bowed to Eva again. “Ms. Green, this is Nicholas, general manager of the New Edmonton Mall. May I help you?” He said.
“I want to find a suitable dress for Mr. Sacha.” Eva said.
“Alright, please follow me.” With that, Nicholas turned around, one hand behind his back, and the other made a “please” gesture.
Subsequently, under the protection of a large number of staff, the two of them walked along the red carpet all the way to the main floor of the building through the glass-walled sightseeing elevator. According to Nicholas, the general manager of the New Edmonton Shopping Center, which covers an area of 57,000 square meters and has a total floor area of 420,000 square meters, can accommodate 40,000 people at the same time, attracting 500,000 households from all over the world to visit Silver City every year.
“Yes.” Facing the manager’s explanation, Tie Zha pretended to nod his head to show that he knew. He was completely uninterested in these data, and the situation in the mall had nothing to do with him. He really wanted to say that there was something to eat and drink here. He only needed to introduce it, but he was not interested in how large the area was and how many tourists it attracted. To paraphrase what he often said, “Can you eat it as a meal?”
Not long after, the two of them walked back and forth in the corridor on the main floor. Looking around, there were incomparably spacious shops on both sides. Through the bright floor-to-ceiling windows, one could see a dazzling variety of goods inside. There were clothes, shoes, bags of various styles, various exquisite carry-on items, skin care products, cosmetics, and so on. There were everything inside. Compared to the spacious space and abundant merchandise, the flow of people here was very sparse. At a glance, there were few customers in the shop.
“Why are there so few people here?” Tie Zha asked Eva.
“Because most people can’t afford the goods here.” Eva whispered. The New Edmonton Shopping Center was the uptown’s most luxurious shopping area, and even with the income of Silver City’s nobles, it was difficult to buy the goods here.
“Friend, I can’t afford it either” Tie Zha scratched his hair and said. Although he was currently the Legion Commander, his Werewolf Legion had always maintained a deficit, and he also owed Mu Yuqinxin a debt. As far as clothes were concerned, he always felt that they could be worn, not ugly, comfortable, and wear-resistant. Before Eva could reply, he stretched out five fingers and continued, “Just buy a dress. I’ve seen it in Sand City before. It costs five gold coins each. It’s quite handsome to wear.”
“How can this be? You are going to the Twilight Manor for dinner tonight. You must dress properly. Otherwise, the Princess will blame me.” Eva said.
“As for it?” Tie Zha frowned and said.
“Do you know what it means for the princess to invite you to dinner at Twilight Manor?” Eva asked.
Tie Zha shook his head.
“It means …” Eva smiled and said in a long voice, “You are the first man in the world to be invited by the Temple Princess alone.”
