Chapter 422: Chapter 422 Calien Town_1

"What do you say to playing a role-playing game later?"

Gazing out into the dark window, Feng Yuan suggested to everyone, while Qi Xiaoshuang glanced at him and said

"What sort of role-playing?"

"Pretend to be ascetics, you know~"

Turning up her nose, Qi Xiaoshuang put on a hood and said

"Is it just like this?"

"Yeah, just like that~"

"Tsk, is this why you had us change into the Wolf God’s Robes earlier?"

Scratching his head, Feng Yuan said with a beaming smile

"Don’t you find it fun?"

"It’s alright, I guess."

Qi Xiaoshuang swayed her body, the robe flowing with her movements, while Dou Yanlan, watching Feng Yuan placing cloaks on the spirit beasts, narrowed her eyes thoughtfully.

"Meow!"

Cotton tugged at the robe which made it feel uncomfortable. Compared to Xiao Ji and the Dreaming Dragon Baby, who looked odd in their long robes, Big Cat looked somewhat mysterious in its robe; the hood covered its head, and from behind, if not observed closely, one might mistake it for a human standing there.

Feng Yuan handed a Wolf God’s Robe to Najia and said

"Put it on, just pull it over your head."

Najia took the Wolf God’s Robe, hesitating for a while before draping it over itself. The Wolf God’s Robe, put on over Najia’s original robe, made it look somewhat bulky, yet, whatever Feng Yuan had done with the robe he handed to Najia, it still looked elegant, even though its figure seemed bulky.

After putting on the robe and the hood, Najia stared out the window, seemingly lost in thought, and tightened the robe around itself as it softly chanted something.

As a blinding white light emerged, the little train slowly exited the tunnel, and as their eyes adjusted, the group could not help but marvel at the ancient battlefield ruins on either side.

The stone remnants of buildings were covered in vines, and the animals seemed to have made it their playground, scampering and climbing between the ruins. An animal resembling a brown squirrel sat on a piece of wall debris, holding a nut curiously watching the slowly passing train.

"We’re here~"

Stretching lazily, Feng Yuan cheerfully announced. The long period of travel had become unbearable for him. Najia hopped onto Yang Hongzhi’s shoulder and shrank its body as if to avoid something.

As they exited the train, the attire of Feng Yuan and his friends attracted the gazes of other people. Even though there were many others dressed like Feng Yuan, the majority wore modern clothes. Seeing their attire, many tourists in the travel group urged the guide to wait and quickly ran into a store in the train station to buy clothes in the style of ancient ascetics.

Since their travel group was small, they had already merged with another group at the port while waiting to board a ship. Seeing those people go to buy clothes, although some in the group seemed displeased, they didn’t voice any complaints.

After a while, everyone gathered together. The guide checked off their names to confirm everyone was present, then raised a small flag to signal for the group to follow and left the train station on foot. Looking at the massive ancient town not far away, Feng Yuan sighed and said

"It’s a pity there are no cars to go directly into it—they really lack modernization here."

Dou Yanlan laughed and replied

"If that were the case, the old district of Calien would no longer retain its original integrity."

"After all, when Calien town was established, they hardly considered modern cars."

"Shouldn’t we be going to the hotel first?"

Qi Xiaoshuang looked confused as she watched the team marching towards Calien town and inquired, to which Qi Chen recalled and said

"It seems the travel group has arranged accommodation inside Calien town."

"No way? I didn’t notice. Is that for real?"

Qi Xiaoshuang said with some surprise. Since Calien town needed to preserve its original appearance, there were only a few inns in the town. Not allowed to be extensively renovated, staying in Calien town came at a considerable expense. Most travel groups typically lodge their tourists in the nearby Calien new district. Compared to Calien town, the new district was much more spacious, but since it’s newly built, it didn’t have much difference from an ordinary city.

Agunas’s phantom glanced at Najia, wiggled its tail, and pawed at its hood. Before getting off, Feng Yuan specially gave Agunas’s phantom a robe that the phantom could wear.

Walking along the ancient streets, looking at the various shops around them, the tourists continued to snap photos. The shops that recreated the ancient style mostly sold special products but were generally in line with their shop type. The guide kept stopping those who wanted to enter the shops.

"Everyone! Let’s go to the hotel to settle our luggage before we go shopping, shall we?"

"The whole afternoon is free time for everyone, so please don’t go shopping now and delay everyone else’s time, okay?"

Listening to the tour guide’s continuous shouting, Feng Yuan and others exchanged helpless smiles, and the group moved forward haltingly. After a long while, they finally arrived at the hotel. After the guide called the names and checked in the corresponding guests at several hotels, he eventually called Feng Yuan and his group’s names.

After completing the check-in procedures with the tour guide, Feng Yuan took Big Cat and the others to their room. Looking at the ancient decorations inside, Feng Yuan said with some reluctance,

"It’s really beautiful～"

"It’s a pity that it’s ultimately going to be erased."

Agunas’s phantom swished its tail and said in a low voice, as time twisted around this place and enveloped it completely, one didn’t need to try to know that it would disappear once corrected.

"Yeah..."

Feng Yuan pulled out the Dark Ancient Book, patted it, sighed, and then put it away. After looking around the room, he beckoned Xiao Ji and the others to leave. As Feng Yuan locked the door, darkness once again engulfed the room, leaving only the flowers on the windowsill to bloom quietly.

"Let’s go～ time to eat～"

Feng Yuan called out to everyone. Glancing at Feng Yuan, Qi Xiaoshuang said,

"Do you know where the food is good?"

Feng Yuan looked at Najia and picked up the tourist booklet next to the counter, saying,

"Doesn’t it say here～"

"First, eat our way through Calien, and then go around and buy some stuff～"

"Also, the bag carriers are here～"

As Feng Yuan spoke, he stepped aside, revealing the big white dog behind him. Seeing the White Wolf Deity about the size of Big Dog, Qi Xiaoshuang excitedly rushed forward to fuss over the White Wolf Deity. Dou Yanlan held Cotton and, noticing no one was paying attention to them, whispered,

"Aren’t you going to solve the problem right away?"

"No rush. Once we solve it, the pleasant trip would be over, and besides..."

Feng Yuan said, closing his mouth and putting his index finger to his lips in a quieting gesture.

Strolling down the street, the group occasionally looked around. The pair of bags carried by the White Wolf Deity seemed bottomless, as no matter how much they stuffed them, there was no change. Qi Chen whispered to Feng Yuan after taking a glance at the White Wolf Deity,

"Is this really okay? Isn’t it disrespectful to the White Wolf Deity?"

"He’s not angry, so don’t worry about it."

"What’s wrong with Najia?"

Yang Hongzhi looked puzzled at Najia on his shoulder. Hearing Yang Hongzhi’s question, Najia smiled and shook her head. Qi Chen, puzzled, asked Yang Hongzhi,

"What’s the matter?"

After a moment of silence, Yang Hongzhi said in a low voice,

"Najia was acting a bit off while we were eating, as if she was looking for something."

Feng Yuan looked at Najia in surprise, and seeing Najia wrap herself in the Wolf God’s Robe, he thought better of it and didn’t say anything. Dou Yanlan glanced at Feng Yuan and, seeing nothing, turned to ask Najia,

"Did you encounter some special existence?"

Najia, apologetic, shook her head and gestured as if hoping everyone would not pry further into the matter. Dou Yanlan considered this and then said to Feng Yuan,

"Aren’t you going to say anything?"

"Me? What can I say? But if you don’t want the trip to end on the first day, just act as if nothing happened."

"Could it be that the other party has already appeared?"

Qi Chen said, looking toward the towering ancient castle. In his mind, the fragment of the World Clock should be within the castle.
