Vol V Chapter 38
Looking at the ticking time on the liquid crystal timer on the wall, Colin estimated the time and headed to Dust Citizen 0609's residence.
After asking a few Dust Folks in the Hanging Dust Folks 'residential area, he could easily find out where Dust Folks 0609 lived. Although the Dust Folks did not understand why a noble like Colin would come to their pigeon coop, they had always been simple and did not think too much.
When Colin arrived at 0609's residence, he saw four dust citizens and 0609 sitting in front of an old television, watching a work that Colin was familiar with," Mirror Nordlyn ". Unfortunately, in his previous life, this work could be considered to be in his lifetime.
This surprised Colin, and he quietly sat on a high spot to watch with them…
After a long time, Mark, who was dressed mysteriously, arrived. Seeing that Colin was also watching TV, he did not disturb him but sat on the pile of things on the other side and waited.
When the video ended, it popped out from the device. The dust citizens who were deeply affected by the atmosphere were already very touched.
The dustman wearing goggles complained unwillingly,""You really can keep people in suspense!"
As one of the middle-class citizens was crying his eyes out, 0609 used the videotape to look at his head and lectured him,""You cried when you saw the Extreme Devouring Beast, and you cried when you saw this stupid thing!”
"I don't know if he survived after that," said the middle-parted dusty man dejectedly.”
0609 said helplessly as he boiled the soup,""If it weren't for the apocalypse, this movie would have ended long ago.”
Colin was also reminiscing about the past. He looked forward to watching the next episode, but it was impossible.
Sighing in his heart, Collin glanced at Mark. He knew that Mark was here, so he signaled for him to take action.
Ma Ke nodded slightly and then said to them,"Hiding a forbidden lighthouse item, you should worry about your own ending.”
0609 stopped and said indifferently,""Who is it? How dare you mention prohibited items in my place?!”
As soon as he said this, the four dust citizens turned around and echoed,"Which bastard?"
"It's up to you."
"If you're not looking, get lost."
Just as they finished speaking, Mark pulled down his mask and greeted them.
At the same time, they also noticed that there was another citizen beside Ma Ke.
This gave them a fright and they immediately stood up in a military posture. 0609 was also stunned for a moment before he reacted.
"This thing is his…it's his!”
As if afraid of being punished, they all pushed the blame onto 0609. He was so angry that he cursed," You…You bunch of heartless brats!”
0609 said as he threw all kinds of bottles and cans at them.
He kept shouting," Captain Mark, we were wrong, we were wrong.”
"We were dragged here by that old fart!”
"I won't dare to do it again!"
After a while, the scene became quiet. Only Collin, Mark, and 0609 were left.
Colin knew that Mark still had many questions, so he didn't interrupt.
"Let me ask you about the invasion of the lighthouse in 2012. How much do you know?"
" Oh, that year, there seemed to be some things." 0609 was also a shrewd person. He guessed that Ma Ke had something to ask of him."I'm old and my memory isn't very good. If you can contribute more…"
"I don't have contribution points, but I do have some.”
Ma Ke took out his precious metal box from his inner pocket and opened it to take out a low-quality cigarette.
Inferior cigarettes were not considered high-grade, but they were good stuff on the lighthouse. It was especially tempting for the old cigarette holders who had not smoked for many years and the dust people who could not smoke at all.
Ma Ke took the inferior cigarette and sniffed it in front of his nose. He looked intoxicated, causing 0609 to stare at the inferior cigarette. Ma Ke also sniffed it for 0609, allowing 0609 to confirm the smell of the cigarette.
"Do you remember now?"
0609 no longer hid anything. He sighed and said,""The lighthouse has never been invaded in the past twelve years. In those few years, the lighthouse was very peaceful.”
0609's lively voice made Ma Ke a little shocked," What…"
Ignoring Ma Ke's thoughts, 0609 continued," That year, Morgan was still the commander of the Desolate Hunters, and I was his porter. There weren't any High Citizens or Dust Citizens back then.”
Ma Ke nodded slightly." I know this. When the Three Great Laws were issued, I could already remember it.”
Seeing that Ma Ke didn't think it was any useful information, 0609 smiled awkwardly and stood up to turn off the boiling pot. After recalling for a moment, he continued,""I still remember that year when we were surrounded by the Extreme Devouring Beasts during a ground mission.”
0609 waved his spoon and coordinated with his movements." One by one, their souls were extracted by those beasts! Heh, it was almost Morgan's turn, but there was a clang.”
Accompanying his words, the spoon collided with the pot and produced a mimicry sound." A mysterious armor has appeared! It was as if a god had descended to the mortal world and chopped down a group of Extreme Devouring Beasts with a few slashes!”
"Mysterious armor?"
While Ma Ke was confused, 0609 added,""That's right, that suit of armor was much more powerful than your black mecha. I didn't expect that the one who came out of the armor was actually a seventeen-year-old silver-haired beauty!”
At the same time, Mark was also thinking about it. What 0609 said was not quite the same as what he saw in the core data room. It seemed that for some reason, the information in this area had been changed...
"Sigh, what a peerless beauty. Later, Morgan invited her to the lighthouse to thank her, but not long after, that woman and her armor disappeared. Unfortunately…in the end, I couldn't talk to her.”
Upon hearing 0609's words, Mark looked at Collin as if he thought that Collin could see something.
Colin saw through Mark's thoughts and analyzed for him,""Based on my understanding, he pretended to invite her, but in reality, he occupied her armor. Of course, this is just my opinion. You can think whatever you want…"
After saying that, Colin left the place. He needed to return to the tower house of the Floating Farm quietly to prevent the City Defense Army from being suspicious.
Mark did not deny this and gave 0609 a low-quality cigarette.
How could he not know that with City Lord Morgan's thinking, he must have done this for the sake of humans having the ability to resist the Extreme Devouring Beast. However…why hadn't he seen that armor on the lighthouse for so many years?
