Chapter 401: Reunion with Old Friends!
In the early morning of the capital, the sky was covered with a layer of dark clouds, which blocked most of the sun.
However, this layer of dark clouds was not thick enough, and it was difficult to rain on a windy day.
But it would give people a dull feeling.
The capital of the Dragon Federation almost always has such weather in autumn, while the sky in Jinghai Province is particularly blue in late autumn.
Even if there are occasional dark clouds in the sky, it will quickly clear up after a shower.
There was a sudden rain last night, adding a touch of coolness to the late autumn in Jinghai Province.
Even so, people living in Jinghai Province still wear shorts and short sleeves to go out on the street, and feel very comfortable after the weather turns cooler.
Several rains in late autumn will reduce the temperature by four or five degrees, which is a blessing for Jinghai Province, which is still 24 or 25 degrees even in late autumn.
A girl in a light blue casual suit with a single ponytail stood at the door of the Beast Tamer Alliance.
The girl looked at the door of the Beast Tamer Alliance expectantly, waiting for an old friend who had been away for a long time.
This girl is Walnut.
JA City has been rebuilt with the input of resources from all sides, and the city defense level has been raised by two levels.
Among them, the Scavengers and the Beast Tamers Alliance have added a lot to the city defense of JA City.
The Jinghai Beast Tamer High School and Jinghai Tianyu University, which were severely damaged in this attack, have been renovated and built to be much better than before.
In terms of campus facilities alone, they are at the forefront of the first echelon in the entire Longteng Federation.
However, due to the casualties of a large number of students, the current number of students has still been greatly reduced.
Many parents have chosen to transfer their children after discussion.
This disaster has left too many marks in the hearts of JA City people, and even some local residents who have lived in JA City for decades have the idea of leaving their hometown.
Walnut is one of the lucky ones, and no one in her family was injured or killed.
The loss of property is not that big.
As two top institutions in the high school and university stages of the Longteng Federation, Jinghai Beast Tamer High School and Jinghai Tianyu University naturally have to find ways to change the status quo in the face of such a sharp decline in students.
Jinghai Beast Taming High School was rebuilt by the construction team hired by the school, the Goblin Tamers, in just one week.
Since the building materials used in the Beast Taming World are all natural materials, there is no such thing as pollution.
After the reconstruction, the school opened immediately, and the school applied to Zique Academy to send many senior beast tamers to teach the courses.
Especially the practical class, which changed from one class every two days to one class every day.
Hu Tao was originally most interested in the practical class, but since Fang Mu left, Hu Tao would be absent-minded even in the practical class, worried about Fang Mu's situation.
It was only after knowing that Fang Mu was fine that Hu Tao rekindled his fighting spirit in the practical class.
After knowing that Fang Mu planned to return to JA City on Sunday morning, Hu Tao said that he would come to pick Fang Mu up.
Fang Mu did not refuse to let Hu Tao wait for him at the door of the Beast Tamer Alliance.
It just so happened that Fang Mu had something to talk to Hu Tao about when he saw Hu Tao this time.
During Fang Mu's time at school, Hu Tao was the only one who would worry about his safety after he left.
This feeling of being cared for by friends is very different from the feeling of being cared for by brothers and sisters.
Fang Mu asked Hu Tao to wait for him here at 7 o'clock in the morning.
Hu Tao arrived at 6:30, and Fang Mu had already walked out of the gate of the Beastmaster Alliance at 6:50.
Behind Fang Mu was Lu Yuyu.
As a deacon sent by the Beastmaster Alliance, Lu Yuyu's rank was higher than the vice president of the JA City Beastmaster Alliance branch!
Lu Yuyu personally sent a boy away from the Beastmaster Alliance, which made many adventurers look at Fang Mu in surprise, guessing Fang Mu's identity in their hearts.
The most high-profile force in JA City at present is the Nearshore Chamber of Commerce.
Could this boy be the offspring of a big shot in the Nearshore Chamber of Commerce! ?
But even so, he should not be received so highly by Deacon Lu!
"Brother Fang, if you have anything I can do for you in the capital, just tell me."
"You don't have to worry about the layout of the club guild."
"Our three master craftsmen of Cornerstone Construction have already postponed their schedules and will devote themselves to the construction!"
Fang Mu said with a smile.
"Brother Lu, thank you for your trouble."
"If you encounter any troubles in Cornerstone Construction in the future, if I am not in Longteng Federation and you can't contact me, I can directly contact my second brother, and he will help solve it."
Fang Mu's words made Lu Yuyu feel very excited.
As a resource-producing force, Cornerstone Construction does not need to compete with other forces for resources. What troubles can it encounter?
Fang Mu's words are actually a channel for Cornerstone Construction to connect with Jianmu Chamber of Commerce.
The personal relationship between Cornerstone Construction and Fang Mu has also become an exchange between the two forces.
I heard that Jianmu Chamber of Commerce is recently studying the construction of the Visualization Hall.
The construction of the Visualization Hall can definitely be said to be a huge project.
If Jishi Construction can undertake this project, it will bring great benefits to Jishi Construction.
First, it can bring the relationship between itself and Fang Mu and Fang Yuan closer in the project.
Second, it will make the outside world feel that Jishi Construction is the only partner of Jianmu Chamber of Commerce.
Jishi Construction is involved in the construction of Jianmu Chamber of Commerce's infrastructure.
Originally, Lu Yuyu wanted to find an opportunity to repay Fang Mu's favor, but now Lu Yuyu owes Fang Mu more and more favors.
"Brother Lu, just send her here. You will be going back to the capital in a few days. You must have a lot of things to do right now."
"It just so happens that a friend is coming to pick me up. We will meet again when we have time."
After saying that, Fang Mu waved to Lu Yuyu and walked straight to the pretty girl standing at the entrance of the Beastmaster Alliance.
Lu Yuyu had seen Hu Tao around Fang Mu more than once.
Lu Yuyu has always had a deep impression of the people around Fang Mu.
According to what I know, Hu Tao's family is quite well-off, but it is far worse than those children of powerful forces.
Hu Tao's family provides for Hu Tao, but at most it is at the current level.
Fang Mu is very good to the people around him, so I think he will be good to Hu Tao.
If Hu Tao is not an important person to Fang Mu, but just an ordinary friend.
He would not appear here.
Lu Yuyu only felt that he had foreseen Hu Tao's rise.
If Lu Yuyu was a utilitarian person, he would definitely try to curry favor with Hu Tao during the time when Fang Mu was away from JA City.
But Lu Yuyu didn't choose to do so.
Because Lu Yuyu was not sure whether Fang Mu could accept such behavior.
If he could accept it, it would be good.
If Fang Mu couldn't accept it and had some misunderstandings about him, it would be a loss!
Fang Mu's promise to him today made Lu Yuyu determine how to interact with Fang Mu in order to maintain a long-term friendship between the two sides.
Fang Mu walked quickly to Hu Tao.
Before Fang Mu could speak, Hu Tao took out a brown paper bag from the animal tooth bracelet on his wrist.
The brown paper bag was steaming.
"Fang Mu, you came back so early and you haven't eaten yet, right?"
"This is the beef pie made by my mother. I have a cup of soy milk and two glutinous rice balls for you to finish eating."
"Eat it while it's hot, otherwise it will be cold in the wind!"
When talking to Fang Mu, Hu Tao's eyes curved into crescents involuntarily.
This was the second time Fang Mu saw Hu Tao smile so happily.
The first time I saw Hu Tao laugh so happily was when Fang Mu told Hu Tao that he had become a beastmaster.
When Fang Mu took the pie from Hu Tao's hand, he handed Hu Tao a brocade box.
"I have long missed my aunt's craftsmanship."
"I went to Longteng Federation, and this is the gift I brought you from outside."
Hu Tao took the brocade box and put it back into the animal tooth bracelet on her wrist.
Hu Tao's animal tooth bracelet is a bronze space spiritual tool, the lowest among all space equipment, but it is still expensive.
With a space of nearly one cubic meter, it is still very convenient to store items.
Hu Tao was very happy that Fang Mu could still think of her when he went out for training, and did not think that the things in the brocade box were so valuable.
It should be a local specialty brought back from another federation.
When Hu Tao followed her parents out to visualize and comprehend the mysterious pattern, she also brought some local specialties to Fang Mu.
Fang Mu saw that Hu Tao did not open the brocade box immediately, so he did not tell Hu Tao what was in the brocade box.
Hu Tao's beast-controlling bird costume puppet can sense the effects of the metal spiritual materials in the box.
The two metals in the box can help Hu Tao's bird costume puppet to transform.
One of the two metal spiritual materials was found by Fang Mu in the treasure house of Panfeng Federation, and the other came from the inheritance of the ancient battlefield ruins.
It is one of the many items in the black feather space equipment.
This piece of metal can also be collected now, and occasionally appears in the underground dimension cracks of natural disaster level.
It is more precious than the shadow eye stone that is 100% produced in the natural disaster level shadow dimension cracks.
The appearance of this metal in the ruins made Fang Mu know that there were also underground dimension cracks in the fourth and fifth eras.
Seeing Fang Mu eating beef pie in big mouthfuls, Hu Tao hurriedly took out the soy milk.
"Eat slowly, don't choke!"
"By the way, Fang Mu, you went out for a while, I feel that you are a little tanned and a little thinner."
Fang Mu took a sip of the soy milk and corrected it seriously.
"I'm not thinner, I'm stronger!"
Fang Mu's skin color used to be whiter than boys of the same age, which made him look particularly clean.
In the scorching sun and sand environment of Panfeng Federation, Fang Mu's skin color turned into a light wheat color.
It made Fang Mu look more energetic than before.
It's not unreasonable for Fang Mu to say that he has become stronger.
Before, Fang Mu only had four abdominal muscles that were not very obvious. This time, Fang Mu's abdominal muscles have become six.
The corners of the eighth one are about to appear.
Hu Tao looked at Fang Mu for a moment after hearing this, and confirmed that Fang Mu's body did not seem to have any problems.
Hu Tao decided to prepare a boiled egg and a vegetable bag for Fang Mu when preparing breakfast in the future to help Fang Mu supplement nutrition.
Just then, Hu Tao heard Fang Mu suspiciously say.
"Hu Tao, are your cheeks allergic? Why are they so red?"
"And your cheeks are a little dark, did you not wash your face?"
While talking, Fang Mu gently rubbed it with his fingers, and indeed brought down a little fine light brown powder.
This layer of light brown powder stuck to Fang Mu's fingertips, with a faint fragrance.
Fang Mu is not a straight man who has never been a soloist, and he doesn't even know about cosmetics.
But in Fang Mu's impression, Hu Tao has never put on makeup before.
I didn't expect that this little girl would learn to put on makeup now, but her skills are still a little raw.
Hu Tao's expression froze when she heard Fang Mu's words, and she pursed her lips.
She pulled off the leather headband with a bit of stiffness.
Her freshly washed hair fell down, covering her cheeks.
Hu Tao stammered and changed the subject.
"You just came back and missed classes. Why don't we go to the library to read books!"
The blush on Hu Tao's face was caused by powder, but now her cheeks are really burning.
Fang Mu's words are simply an insult to himself, a makeup novice!
I got up at five in the morning and took a shower immediately. How could I not even wash my face! ?
This shadow is really too difficult to draw. I can't understand it even after watching a video.
Hu Tao didn't use any cosmetics, but her mother's.
Her mother's skin is darker than hers, and the color of Yin and Yang is slightly darker.
She has deliberately applied it very thinly.
Thinking of this, Hu Tao sighed. Makeup is really not suitable for her!
Fang Mu finished the beef pie in his hand in a few bites.
After drinking the soy milk, Fang Mu smiled and said to Hu Tao.
"I just heard from Brother Lu that the Nearshore Chamber of Commerce will have a product exhibition today, which specializes in selling various rare metals and beasts with rare bloodlines."
"Why don't we go to the Nearshore Chamber of Commerce's product exhibition to take a look!"
"Haven't you always been interested in product exhibitions before? Then we will choose a restaurant near the Nearshore Chamber of Commerce's product exhibition to have lunch."
"Then go to the library in the afternoon. I just want to understand what I have learned in the course."
Hu Tao is a very opinionated person in life, but every time she is with Fang Mu, Hu Tao always likes to ask Fang Mu's opinion and let Fang Mu help her make decisions.
Hu Tao also invited Fang Mu to visit the product exhibition before.
Fang Mu accepted his invitation, but when he arrived at the product exhibition, Hu Tao realized that the spiritual materials sold here are all related to beast masters.
Fang Mu is not a beast master, and he will be affected to some extent when he comes to such a place.
After returning home, Hu Tao felt more and more guilty about it, and never mentioned inviting Fang Mu to the trade show again.
Now Fang Mu took the initiative to bring it up, and Fang Mu has become a beastmaster.
Hu Tao was very happy, but she definitely couldn't afford the things at the Nearshore Chamber of Commerce's trade show.
"Fang Mu, I don't know where this Nearshore Chamber of Commerce came from. I always feel that it's not like the style of our local forces in JA City."
"The Nearshore Chamber of Commerce has held several trade shows and auctions in the past half month."
"It is said that the senior executives of the Nearshore Chamber of Commerce just attended the Chamber of Commerce Festival and brought back a lot of good things from the Royal Capital."
Fang Mu raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
Fang Mu really didn't pay much attention to the situation of the Nearshore Chamber of Commerce, and didn't know where the Nearshore Chamber of Commerce came from.
But after going to the Royal Capital to attend the Chamber of Commerce Festival, the Nearshore Chamber of Commerce must know where they came from.
