Chapter 109 - To Eliminate Smog, Plant Trees First
Chapter 109: To Eliminate Smog, Plant Trees First
After the dwarves left the tavern, the tavern continued its business.
The arcade machine and the air purifier had already been completed, but the seeds still hadn’t fully grown.
Half a month had passed, but the people from the Elf Tavern still hadn’t come.
Alan was a bit puzzled. After all, the seed should have grown already.
Asmodeus still hadn’t returned. It had been five days since Alan had seen him. Alan started to worry. What was going on with this guy? It was as if he had disappeared. Logically speaking, if something happened, someone should have come to the tavern to inform him.
Seeing that Ai Xiaohei was bullying Xiaobai again, Alan left AI Xiaohei in the lobby and sent Xiaobai back to the doghouse in the backyard.
From Xiaobai’s doghouse, it could be seen that the system had put a lot of thought into this renovation. This doghouse looked like it was even meant for people to live in. It was very luxurious!
Xiaobai was sent back to the house, but it stood at the door. It nodded politely at Alan and then turned around to go in.
Alan was stunned by his action. “It’s really becoming a monk…”
He didn’t even know if this dog could still be called a dog.
No matter how Alan looked at it, he felt that Xiaobai was beginning to show Buddhist nature.
In his mind, he couldn’t help but imagine a white dog sitting on a cloud. Its whole body was emitting golden light, and its mouth was muttering the Buddhist Scriptures as it saluted him with its hands together.
Alan shuddered and shook his head. He shook off the bizarre image in his mind and quickly left the backyard.
After entering the house, he saw Ai Xiaohei with her head held high, standing on the bar counter with a disdainful look in her eyes.
Her proud voice appeared in Alan’s mind.
“Alan, don’t hug that stinky dog next time, or I’ll tell that elf lady.”
“Pfft…”
“Sorry, I usually don’t laugh, unless I really can’t help it…”
Alan suddenly laughed. Up until now, Ai Xiaohei still hadn’t figured out the reason why she was despised by Orina.
“Actually, Xiaobai is a boy. He has a good temper, and Orina likes him!”
He looked into AI Xiaohei’s eyes, and after saying that, Alan walked straight to the bar counter to get ready for business.
Ai Xiaohei stood rooted to the ground, her mind echoing the words Alan had just said. Xiaobai was a male, so Orina liked a male dog!
She thought she had come to a conclusion, but her eyes widened in shock, and she was stunned.
…
Recently, the gray fog had become heavier and heavier, and the gloominess was getting worse.
Even if there were electric lights in Rock City, they gradually lost their vitality, and even the street lamps were covered in a layer of haze.
The cleaning operation had to start immediately, or it would be too late.
Alan looked at the street outside the tavern. The visibility was getting lower and lower. A few days ago, he could still see the shops across the street, but now he could only vaguely see the location of the gate across the street. The spreading speed of gray fog was much faster than before.
Alan was standing outside the gate of the tavern, he was anxious. He really wanted to go to the Elf Tavern and see what was wrong with everyone who was growing the tree seeds?
“Sigh…” he could not help but sigh.
Beelzebub looked disdainfully at Samael, who was sitting in front of the arcade, playing games nonstop, and even shouting the stupid moves.
Then he looked at Alan, who was leaning against the door and sighing.
“Humans are troublesome.”
After muttering to himself in a low voice, he waved the broom in his hand and continued sweeping the floor.
In the afternoon, the tavern was open for business as usual.
Alan was thinking about whether he should go to the Elf Tavern to take a look at their situation. Abraham ran into the tavern excitedly and shouted at Alan.
“Alan, it’s done. Let’s go plant the trees!”
Everyone in the tavern looked at the person who had come in. The guy who had disappeared for almost half a month had finally appeared again.
Alan looked excitedly at Abraham who was running towards him in a panic. He thought to himself, “Finally, the news came.”
“Where is it?”
“It’s at Sofia’s place! Let’s go and plant the tree!”
Abraham did not even put on his hood, and the excitement on his face was not hidden at all.
“Even if we want to plant the tree, we have to wait for the person with the tree. What are we going to do empty-handed?”
As soon as Alan finished speaking, three people came in from outside the tavern. Orina walked in the front, followed by Sofia, and Wayne was at the back.
However, Wayne looked rather pale. His haggard appearance made him seem as if he had experienced many cruel and inhuman tortures in the past few days.
“Alan, we’ve done everything according to your request. What should we do next?”
Orina came to his side and asked directly without any nonsense.
Alan looked at the four people in front of him, they all looked exhausted. He knew that they were really trying their best to breed trees during this period of time.
“You guys rest for a day first. The matter of planting trees still needs to be carefully planned. After all, they will not be moved easily after planting them. Think carefully before planting them.”
“Well, then go and call Kramer and Severino over.”
Sofia’s suggestion was approved by Alan.
Only Abraham felt a little regretful. He felt that he was not tired at all. He only wanted to finish the treatment of the gray fog in Rock City as soon as possible so that Alan could focus on helping the Abyss solve the problem of the gray fog.
Wayne saw his good friend’s dejected look and could not bear to see it. He patted his shoulder and comforted him, “There’s no rush. It won’t take more than a day or two.”
At that moment, a sudden voice rang out.
“Die, Abraham. I will not lose to you again today!”
After a round, Samael finally found Abraham, who had appeared in the tavern. He immediately asked him to fight him in the arcade game.
Abraham, who always refused Samael, finally sat in front of the arcade with the excited Samael beside him.
“Vulgar fools.”
Beelzebub elegantly shuttled back and forth between the tables, while paying attention to the situation here. When he saw Abraham, he could not help but curse in a low voice.
This vicious-tongued guy always liked to do this.
The remaining four people looked at each other and were silent for a long time. Wayne, who thought he had a good eye, proposed.
“I’ll go to the governor’s mansion to find someone to talk to first.”
Then, he turned around and left the tavern.
Alan was left alone with Sofia and Orina.
Not knowing when, Alan felt that when the three of them were left together, there would always be some inexplicable awkwardness.
“That… Let’s have a drink first. We’ll discuss it later.”
Alan scratched his head and suggested.
“Alan, whiskey! Whiskey!”
Orina was as usual, as if she did not feel anything. She excitedly reminded Alan of the wine that he wanted to drink.
Alan subconsciously glanced at Sofia. Seeing that she nodded, he went to prepare it.
Alan served the whiskeys with a plate of grapes. Orina and Sofia looked at the fruit on the plate. It looked very familiar.
“Magic grape?” Sofia was puzzled.
Alan nodded. “Yes, we don’t lack this wine now, so we can occasionally eat it as a daily fruit.”
When the tavern had just opened, Alan would even haggle over every single grape. It had only been less than half a year, and he already did not lack this little grape?
Orina was different from Sofia’s surprise. She was more gratified. Alan had finally escaped poverty and his days were getting better.
Sofia sat there without saying a word.
Alan saw her cold face and did not dare to say a word.
Only Orina was still drinking happily. She opened his precious box and took out the ukulele.
She played it casually. It was not a song on the score, but a song that Alan had never heard before. The melody was melodious and very pleasant to listen to.
Wayne finally appeared in the tavern with Kramer and Severino after the sky turned dark.
“Little Alan, the administration of the gray fog can already begin, right? !”
Kramer went straight to the point and asked excitedly.
“Yes, plant the trees first!”
“The purifier has also been successfully produced. Now, we just have to wait for the dwarves to make more and it can be put into use. It’s just that the fog cannon car still needs some time.”
Alan briefly explained the current situation. Kramer and Severino had been completely overwhelmed by the gray fog recently. If this kind of busyness and anxiety continued for a while longer, they would probably go crazy too.
“I called all of you here to discuss the planting of trees first. We’ll just take action tomorrow.”
“Orina, Sofia, tell me how many trees you have produced this time, and then make the arrangements.”
After Alan finished speaking, he looked at Sofia.
“All the tree seeds have been produced. Abraham has even grew most of them into saplings.”
After Sofia finished speaking, Alan was stunned. That bag of seeds! All of them were grew!
No wonder the four of them were so tired!
Abraham really did not spare any effort in dealing with the gray fog.
