504: Chapter 504 Zhao Zhao

This was a city where antiquity and technology blended perfectly!

The city walls were made of ancient blue bricks, reaching a height of a hundred zhang, stretching endlessly!

The walls were carved with intricate beast patterns, every line exuding the vicissitudes of time!

Countless giant light screens floated in the sky above the walls, scrolling various information—text, images, and dynamic footage!

The city gate was a massive wooden structure, towering into the clouds, and it seemed to contain a force of rules—

Entering the city, the scene was even more astonishing.

The streets were paved with bluestone slabs, flanked by antique shops with wooden doors and windows, fabric signs, and hanging lanterns.

But the items sold in those shops—some were crystal balls floating in mid-air, some were books turning pages automatically, and some were mirrors that could converse with people!

It all looked incredibly magical!

The pedestrians on the street wore various styles of clothing.

Some wore long robes with large sleeves and wide belts, like ancient scholars;

Some wore tight-fitting battle armor with sleek lines, full of a futuristic feel;

Some wore ordinary casual clothes, no different from people on Blue Star!

Chen Yi and Emilia walked along the street, watching all of this, their hearts filled with shock.

"This place..." Chen Yi murmured, "It really is an eye-opener!"

Emilia nodded, a rare occurrence: "In eight thousand years, I have never seen a place like this."

The two walked aimlessly.

To be honest, they didn't even know where to start their investigation.

Nolan only said the answer was in the Void Realm, but where was the answer? What did it look like? How were they supposed to find it? They had absolutely no idea!

Just then, Chen Yi saw a building ahead.

The building was three stories high, with a wooden sign hanging at the entrance, inscribed with several characters he didn't recognize.

But judging by the layout, the decorations, and the flow of people—

"Could it be an inn?"

"It should be!"

"Shall we go in and take a look? We might be able to gather some information."

Chen Yi nodded. The two pushed the door open and entered.

Meanwhile, in another part of the Void Realm.

Nolan's figure emerged from the void, landing in an exquisite courtyard.

In the center of the courtyard, a little girl with golden hair was sitting on a swing, swinging her legs in boredom. It was none other than Zhao Zhao!

Seeing Nolan return, her eyes lit up; she jumped off the swing and hopped over to him.

"Grandpa Nolan! You're back!"

Nolan nodded with a smile: "Yes, I am!"

"What about that human named Chen Yi?" Zhao Zhao looked around, "Didn't you bring him back?"

Nolan shook his head: "He's in the city. I let him go find the answer himself."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhao looked puzzled: "Grandpa Nolan, why are you so good to that Chen Yi?"

"That so-called ZERO is dead, and the world will is now vacant."

"Since no one is eyeing the world will on him anymore, why can't I eat it?"

Nolan looked at her, a hint of complex emotion flashing in his eyes. Then, he smiled.

"If you eat that thing, you'll get a stomachache!"

Zhao Zhao was stunned. "Eh? Why?"

"Isn't it just a world will born from an ordinary world?"

"Seven billion intelligent life forms, that's not really that high, is it?"

"Why would it give me a stomachache?"

Nolan pondered for a moment and said: "Regarding that—if you're curious, you can go see for yourself! I think you'll definitely be interested in him too!"

Hearing this, Zhao Zhao rolled her eyes on the spot. "Huh? Why would I be interested in an ordinary human?"

She really didn't understand Nolan's reasoning. In her eyes, or rather, in the eyes of all world malice, those creatures from intelligent planets were no different from how humans viewed livestock on a farm!

Would humans be interested in livestock? Of course not! Unless they were thinking about how to eat them!

So Zhao Zhao couldn't understand at all why Nolan was paying so much attention to Chen Yi!

"Go and try it out?" Nolan said with a smile, "If you don't try, how will you know?"

Zhao Zhao sighed. "Fine, fine." "Since Grandpa Nolan, you've said so—" "I'll go over and take a look!"

Having said that, she turned around and hopped away. Behind her, Nolan watched her retreating figure. The smile in his eyes slowly faded, replaced by a trace of almost fanatical anticipation!

"I'm afraid—we might truly live to see the day when the Void Realm is completely ended!"

Meanwhile, on the other side. Chen Yi and Emilia walked into the inn and found a seat by the window.

A waiter dressed in ancient attire walked over, smiling broadly, and said something. "Hello there, traveler from a life planet, what would you like?"

The two looked at each other. They couldn't understand a word!

The waiter said a few more sentences, and seeing no reaction from them, his smile gradually turned into confusion.

Chen Yi tried speaking in Dragon Country language: "We want to ask for some information, can you understand us?"

The waiter blinked, looking blank.

Chen Yi tried several other languages: Eagle Country language, Japanese, Korean, and even some minor European languages he had occasionally heard—but the waiter remained completely bewildered.

Finally, the waiter helplessly shrugged, said something, and turned to leave. Judging by his demeanor, he seemed quite accustomed to this sort of thing.

Chen Yi and Emilia looked at each other. "The language barrier?" "It seems so—"

He remembered that everything Nolan said was in Dragon Country language. He had assumed the Void Realm spoke a similar language! Now it seemed that old man Nolan was just proficient in Dragon Country language and had deliberately used their language to communicate. But the common language of this Void Realm was completely different!

"This is going to be tricky." Chen Yi rubbed his temples. If they couldn't even speak the language, how were they supposed to gather information? They couldn't just rely on hand gestures, could they?

Just as the two were at a loss, a crisp female voice suddenly came from the side. "Hey, are you guys in trouble?"

Dragon Country language! Pure Dragon Country language! Chen Yi looked up abruptly!

A blonde girl stood by their table, tilting her head as she looked at them. She looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, with golden hair cascading to her shoulders, and a pair of large, blinking eyes—she was very cute!

She was wearing a slightly oversized light pink dress, looking just like the door attendants often seen in historical dramas! At the moment, she was examining the two with great interest.

Chen Yi's eyes lit up! "You can speak Dragon Country language?"

"I can, so what?" Her tone was light and carried a hint of impatience, but it was indeed pure Dragon Country language.

Chen Yi was overjoyed! "That's great! We just arrived in the Void Realm, and with the language barrier, we were worried about how to gather information!"

The girl gave an "oh," her expression remaining indifferent. "Then you're lucky to have met me." "Follow me. If you want to learn the language of the Void Realm, I can help."

Chen Yi was stunned for a moment. So enthusiastic? Could it be a trap? But then he thought, Nolan had said there were rules restricting this place, and even if someone from a life planet really came, they couldn't attack anyone. It shouldn't be anything too serious—thinking of this, he signaled for Emilia to follow.
