"Giant", who was nearly three meters tall, said with regret, "'Council of Six' stipulates that you cannot talk about things that Holy Scripture has not said. You are all '' I am a follower of Mr. The Fool'. I must have heard of Sermon and understand the official statement. I can't tell you the rest, just like I can't tell you that I have seen 'Angel of Redemption' with my own eyes and received help from him."

At this point, this "Giant" wanted to pat Lumian on the shoulder, but Lumian dodged it skillfully and without leaving a trace.

"What do you call it?" Lumian actually didn't believe it in his heart, but he pretended to have a look of reverence on his face.

Then "Giant" replied, "Livalier.

"Cheers to Rebirth for City of Silver!"

Lumian raised the huge beer glass, clinked it with the other party, and then drank the rest of the golden wine.

He touched his swollen belly and pointed in the direction of Washroom, indicating that he wanted to go there for convenience.

New Silver City's beer itself was nothing special, but the cups they were served in were too big. After drinking two cups, Lumian's body and alcohol capacity were a bit unbearable.

This is not because I am drunk, but because I am exhausted!

Lumian entered Washroom, stood in front of one of the urinals, untied his belt, and half-squinted his eyes.

Amidst the clattering sound, "Giant" who was more than three meters tall came in and chose the urinal next to him.

Lumian subconsciously glanced sideways and slowly withdrew his gaze.

He stared at the wall in front of him with confusion, until the pressure in his lower abdomen was completely relieved, then he walked out of Washroom and sat back at his old position in front of the bar.

Livalier has ordered a new glass of wine for him. It is a beer that is dark in color but not dirty, and looks a bit brown as it sloshes.

"Try, New Silver City's specialty, Blackface Beer!" "Giant" who firmly believed that he was a human being introduced enthusiastically.

"Blackface Beer?" Lumian picked up a beer mug that was bigger than his head and asked in confusion.

Livalier suddenly felt sad:

"'Forsaken Land' There is no Sun, there is no fertile land, only Blackface Grass can grow. It is our Staple Food, feeding generations of City of Silver residents. Although it is always not enough, it is better than nothing.

"At that time, it was impossible to use Blackface Grass to make wine. It was too luxurious, too extravagant.

"Haha, now that there is enough food, meat and Milk, I have grown taller again, a full thirty centimeters taller than before."

"Can Blackface Grass be planted in New Silver City? Can it be planted in Underground?" Although Lumian is not "Planter", I grew up in the countryside and know that those plants in extreme environments will most likely die if they are replaced in normal environments.

Livalier smiled:

"It can be grown! It can grow in any environment. Of course, we found someone to improve the seeds of Blackface Grass to make it more suitable for the current environment. Compared with before, its taste is actually very different and more delicious. Try it. This kind of beer is not available outside, and we don't grow much ourselves. Mainly to remember Past."

Lumian put the beer glass to his mouth with great interest and took a big sip.

The first thing he tasted was the normal, lighter aroma of wheat, then he felt the refreshing and slightly stimulating flavor of grass in the glycol, and finally, the vague and non-existent milky flavor that filled his mouth.

"Not bad, very special and a great experience." Lumian did not shy away from his praise.

He asked curiously, "Is there any spirit brewed by Blackface Grass?"

Livalier had a gloomy expression and shook his head:

"We New Silver City people believe that alcoholism is degenerate, indulgent, and a waste of food, so we reject hard liquor."

At this point, he paused:

"Also, Blackface Grass doesn't seem to be suitable for brewing. Even if it is made into beer, it will cause certain hallucinations if you drink too much. I drink up to three cups at a time."

Is it slightly toxic? New Silver City people still relied on eating this plant to survive from generation to generation during the "Forsaken Land" time. It's not easy... Lumian remembered Older Sister's occasional jokes and raised his lips and asked, "Will you see a group of villains dancing if you drink too much?"

Livalier thought for a while and said, "No, most of the time the hallucinations are different. Some people see their wives slapping themselves, some hear the shouts of their dead relatives, some find a baby lying on the roadside, crying loudly..."

Lumian now couldn't listen to things related to babies crying, and suddenly lost interest, and turned to talk about Blackface Beer and the taste of picture books.

He finished the drink, went to the bathroom again, and then left the bar. He planned to take advantage of the sunshine in the afternoon to walk around New Silver City, and then "teleport" back to the "Berry" parked in Hunter Harbor in the evening.

Among the buildings with not many floors but unusually tall buildings, the people walking mainly were "half-Giant". Occasionally, one or two "Giant" that were over three meters could be seen, and there were almost none that were less than 1.8 meters, unless they were the ones with childish faces.

Lumian's height is barely adequate, and his eyes are wandering around.

He found some green Vines crawling on the outer walls of some houses, and there were many soft, huge, white and plump Mushrooms growing on the Vines.

Mushrooms? When did Vines grow Mushrooms? Lumian frowned, doubting his botany.

Thinking that this might be a special plant brought by New Silver City from "Forsaken Land", he felt relieved again.

He walked to a roadside stall, raised his head and said, "You are selling Milk. Why didn't I see the bucket containing Milk?"

The vendor was 2.56 meters tall and had a slightly grayish-blue complexion. He smiled honestly and said, "The house behind is mine. Do you want Milk?"

"Let's have a drink." Lumian asked, and it was not enough to buy a cup of Milk.

Although the common currency New Silver City does not include Felkine and Gold Riso, gold is a hard currency everywhere.

The vendor happily took a cup, turned and walked to his two-story house, reached out and plucked a soft and white Mushrooms.

He pointed Mushrooms at the mouth of the cup and squeezed hard.

Milky white milk spurted out and quickly filled the cup.

Lumian looked at it with his mouth slightly open, and his eyes showed confusion again.

You call this Milk?

"Okay." "Half Giant" the vendor handed Milk to Lumian.

Lumian took it reflexively and asked blankly, "Is that Mushrooms?"

"Yes, Milk Mushroom." "Half Giant" the vendor said sincerely.

You call that Mushrooms? Lumian paid the money a little confused, held the cup, and left this roadside stall.

He couldn't remember how much he paid, and he also forgot that his original plan was to chat with the other party by buying Milk.

After walking more than ten meters, he put the cup to his mouth and took a sip.

A smell of Milk!

Lumian frowned and finished the cup of Milk, not thinking there was anything wrong with it.

But these liquids come from Mushrooms!

"Just treat it as a special plant... just treat it as a special plant..." Lumian muttered a few words to himself, without any thought of trying it again.

He was afraid that if he drank too much, he would produce Milk!

He continued to wander, walking aimlessly on a road twice as wide as Hunt Port street.

Suddenly, another "half-Giant" with a slightly grayish-blue complexion came closer. He held a thick book and said with great enthusiasm, "This friend is interested in knowing about our Beacon and Savior..."

Lumian laughed, pressed his hand on his chest, and saluted:

"Praise the Fool!"

"It turns out they are brothers." That "half Giant" was a little disappointed but also very happy.

The two parties were communicating using Old Feysac, but Lumian had just come all the way, and when they heard the residents of New Silver City communicating among themselves, Giantish Vocabulary, which could leverage supernatural powers, would occasionally appear.

"Is there usually Outsider here?" Lumian asked casually.

The "half Giant" smiled and said, "There are often foreigners coming to visit, experience and tour. Primordial One For a few years, some people chose to settle here, but most of them moved away later. They feel that living with us is quite stressful. Haha, we are too tall and don't know how to enjoy ourselves."

As he said this, "Half Giant" took something out of his pocket and handed it to Lumian:

"I'm glad you came to New Silver City to try our own sugar."

It was a candy wrapped in blue and white tissue paper.

Lumian took it without any courtesy, tore off the packaging and stuffed the white candy into his mouth.

The strong Milk aroma and mellow sweetness quickly fermented on his tongue, making it silky and delicious.

Milk Fragrance...Lumian felt something in her heart and asked with a strange expression, "Is this toffee?"

"Yes." The missionary "half Giant" replied with a smile on his face.

"What Milk are you using?" Lumian never thought that one day he would ask such a question.

The "half Giant" replied very normally and naturally, "Milk Mushroom's Milk."

"..." Lumian held the toffee in his mouth, neither spitting it out nor swallowing it.

He could feel the sincerity and enthusiasm of the other party when he gave the candy just now.

In the following time, he saw the Mushrooms that was fried to give a meaty aroma, the Mushrooms that was grilled to give a fishy taste, and all kinds of weird Mushrooms.

Lumian's eyes were confused the whole time, watching those "half-Giant" and "Giant" happily sharing with each other.

Unconsciously, he walked to the corner of New Silver City.

A very tall building stands here.

It is divided into two parts, with the spire tower on the left and the dome tower on the right. The outer wall is Gray-White, which is thirty or forty meters high.

"This is Twin Towers? According to Livalier, the spire tower is where the Library pavilion and other public facilities are located, and the domed tower is where New Silver City is ruled." Council of Six' Office... There must be Sealed Artifact in this kind of place, and there must be strong people..."Lumian stood not far away, looking at the building in front of him.

His eyes swept across the domed tower, and he discovered that there were clumps of black plants that looked like hair growing out of the gaps between the bricks and stones near the ground, hanging there, sometimes swaying in the wind.

Lumian withdrew his gaze and walked towards Spire, wanting to see what books New Silver City would have been passed down in a human settlement like "Forsaken Land" that had lasted for thousands of years.
