Chapter 3703 Dream Decoration
Ingres had previously learned about the origins of Qimengnu in detail.
She was indeed from the City of Dreams. According to her, she came to the Modern City to study fashion matching.
In Ingres's understanding, it means...international students.
However, although Qimengnu came from the Qimeng City, she didn't know much about the Qimeng City. She became a fashion magician only after coming to the Modern City.
In other words, when she was in the Dream City, she was just an ordinary citizen, limited by her vision and only knew superficial things.
Even so, Ingres had a general impression of Qi Mengzhi from Qi Mengnu's story.
The City of Beautiful Dreams is a sanctuary for designers, a paradise for gourmets, and the only capital for dream decorators.
From this introduction, we can know that the three major supporting industries of the Dream City are: design, food and dream decoration.
Design includes clothing, architecture, landscape, stage, jewelry, graphic design, etc. As long as it is related to design, you can find the top designers here.
In comparison, although Modern City also has designers, the average level is far lower than that of Dream City.
Compared with design, Modern City is more proficient in matching, such as clothing matching, color matching, material matching... and so on.
Especially when it comes to clothing matching, Modern City dares to claim second place and no one dares to claim first place.
This is also the reason why Qi Mengnu came to the modern city to study abroad.
In addition to design, the City of Dreams is also known as the city of food.
Moreover, because of the dream decorators, there are many special ingredients in the Dream City that cannot be found anywhere else, and they are truly delicious.
Because food is more down-to-earth than design and decoration, even ordinary people are proud of the food in their city. In their opinion, food is even the best business card of the City of Dreams.
Qi Mengnu grew up in this kind of atmosphere and is proud of her hometown's reputation as the capital of food.
For this reason, Qimengnu is very keen on promoting the delicacies of her hometown, hoping that people in the modern city will also be able to accept their delicacies.
But few people know that taste varies according to local conditions.
Moreover, the ingredients for the food in Qimeng City are all from their local area. Qimeng Girl cannot buy the ingredients from Qimeng City in Modern City. She is not a great chef, so the food she makes is far inferior to the real Qimeng food.
But then again, even if we use ingredients from the Dream City and ask the chefs from the Dream City to cook the food, it is not certain that everyone in the Modern City will accept this exotic taste.
After all, everyone's threshold for accepting taste is more or less different.
In addition to design and food, the most distinctive feature of the Dream City is the profession that is definitely not found in other cities, which is -
Dream Decorator.
What is a dream decorator?
Simply put, they are people who decorate dreams.
In the Dream City, everyone dreams at night. Their dreams start out as a gray space that looks ordinary. But if a dream decorator helps decorate, the dream will become more and more beautiful.
It eventually turns into a fashionable and colorful dream.
After listening to Qi Mengnu's story, Anger was completely stunned: "Is this a dream?"
Rather than a dream, it is more like a portable space version of playing house.
Turn dreams into playing house.
In any case, Ingres could not tell that this was a dream, because the dream girl clearly said that dreams are fixed at the beginning, and once they start to be decorated, they will slowly change. This kind of decoration, as long as it is not destroyed by human beings, is permanent.
This is completely different from the illusory definition of "dream".
Anyway, Ingres personally thinks that this may not be a dream, but a special dream-making space?
Under the banner of dreams, it has nothing to do with the dream world.
However, it must be said that because of the existence of the Dream Decorator, the world where Angeldu, the Dream City and the Modern City are located, has become even more curious.
It's just a pity...
Angel also asked Qimeng about the information outside the city and the world she lived in. However, like everyone else in Modern City, she would immediately become confused if she asked anything beyond her understanding.
Seeing this, Ingres had no choice but to give up.
However, the information about the "Dream City" given by the Dream Girl had already surprised Angel. At least, he learned about other cities outside the Modern City.
……
While Angel was thinking silently, the ring train had already arrived at the West Eighth District.
Angel got out of the car with ease, and then used a bird's eye view to locate the coordinates of the homeless house while looking for the nearest route.
When he looked up, he realized that the nearest road was right under the building he was in.
To be precise, there is a sewer entrance hidden in a room in the basement warehouse of this building, which leads directly to the underground block.
And, Angle noticed, this entrance seemed to be... public?
After just a few minutes of monitoring, he saw dozens of people coming in and out of this entrance.
From the details of their expressions, Angel could confirm that they were strangers to each other. Some might be residents of the underground block, some might be wanderers or members of underground organizations, and of course, most of them were mutants who looked different from ordinary people.
There are a large number of mutants in the underground blocks. The most typical appearance of these mutants is that they have extra organs on their faces.
According to Angel, the emergence of mutants seems to be due to some uncontrolled unknown infectious disease.
These mutants were actually normal at first, but they developed various extra organs because they were infected with a disease. Fortunately, the mortality rate of this infectious disease is not high, otherwise the underground block would have been deserted long ago.
As for why this infectious disease did not spread to the surface?
The reason is that legal residents on the surface are given various vaccines and antibodies from birth.
Although they cannot solve this infectious disease, they can prevent residents on the ground from being infected through prevention and control.
Because of the antibodies, although the residents on the ground will subconsciously dodge when they see mutants, they are not worried about being infected. This is also the reason why mutants can still live safely in the modern city.
When Angel learned this information, he always felt that there was something strange about it.
The unknown infectious disease controlled underground, the uninfected residents on the ground, and the antibodies that were developed... there is a subtle sense of human manipulation.
Angel shook his head, too lazy to think deeply.
Even if there really is a problem here, he can't go into reality to solve it.
After all, this is just a copy, a copy of the dream of reality.
Angel walked into the elevator and went all the way to the underground warehouse.
There are several factories in the underground warehouse, including storage rooms specifically for shops and temporary warehouses for residents.
The place that Angel wanted to go was the innermost factory building. There were all kinds of wooden boards and steel bars piled everywhere, as well as some replacement floating tracks. Obviously, this place was used to store building materials.
When Angel arrived here, he removed the cover of the illusion.
Because if you want to go to the underground block from here, you have to go through a very narrow corridor. This corridor is not long, only a few meters, but it is very, very narrow, so narrow that only one person can pass through, and even a person with a little bit of weight can't pass through.
It would be impossible for someone like Xiaopang to go down this tunnel.
Because of this single-passage passage, if you want to enter the underground block from here, you must queue up and enter in order.
Even if Angel could hide himself, it would be difficult for him to cut in line because the corridor was too small.
Simply cancel the illusion of concealing your body and queue up directly.
Anyway, he himself had no identity and was no different from the people in the underground neighborhood.
As expected, just as Angle imagined, he did not attract anyone's attention when he went to the queue. Perhaps a few people saw that Angle did not look like someone from the underground block, so they deliberately came over to "pass by", but once they found out that he had no identity, they stopped paying attention.
Although it is only a one-way corridor, this corridor is a "slide", so the queue is actually very fast.
Not long after, it was Ingres's turn.
Sitting at the entrance of the corridor was a staff member of the Wandering House. He looked at Angel and said softly, "If you need anything, the Wandering House will serve you."
After he finished speaking, he motioned for Ingres to go forward.
Angel didn't care about it, because the staff member would say this to everyone in line, as if he was advertising the homeless house.
When Angel stepped into the corridor, it was like he was sitting on a slide and slid down smoothly. Apart from the slightly unpleasant smell in the corridor, there was nothing else wrong.
A few seconds later, Angel was standing in the underground sewer.
After Angel stood still, he immediately looked to the right rear. There was a table and a sleepy young man was sitting at the table.
When he saw Angel appear, he immediately said like a repeater: "...Wandering House is at your service."
He has been repeating it here all day, and whenever someone comes, they will recite this slogan.
Although he personally felt that this was unnecessary.
Most people in the underground streets are penniless, so this kind of advertising won’t attract much business.
However, this is his job after all, and he still has to read as long as someone comes.
After finishing reading, he continued to lie listlessly on the table, waiting for the next person to arrive.
Just as he was waiting for the next person, a voice suddenly reached his ears.
“Can you find a homeless shelter for any need?”
He was stunned for a moment and almost thought he was hallucinating, until he looked up and found that the young man who had just come down from the corridor was standing in front of him.
"Ah...ah?" He stood up suddenly: "Sir, sir, do you need help?"
"Yes." Angel nodded, took out a Modern Coin with the value of 10 from his pocket and put it on the table.
"I came here from another neighborhood. This is my first time here. I want to go to the wishing tree and make a wish. Can you lead the way?"
Angel knew the location of the wishing tree and the route from a bird's eye view, but some routes seemed to have door locks, so some tricks were needed to get through.
Angel thought about it and decided that instead of going back and forth to determine which route was feasible, it would be better to just find someone to lead the way.
With the help of the staff of the homeless house, there should be no obstruction even if we take the locked path. As for the 10-dollar Modern coin, it was stolen from the young couple.
When the young staff member heard that they were going to the wishing tree, a flash of enlightenment flashed in his eyes. Eight out of ten people who come to this underground block go to the wishing tree.
He was used to it.
He nodded quickly: "Of course, we have someone to lead the way."
As he spoke, he collected the Modern Coins on the table and whistled a few times toward the end. Immediately, a masked man in black came over.
"His name is Haman, and he lives nearby. Can he take you to the wishing tree?"
Seeing that Angel agreed, he immediately started communicating with Harman and explained the destination that Angel would go to.
Soon, Harman came over, nodded slightly to Angel, and gestured to the distance: "Sir, please."
……
Ingres and Haman went together.
They were walking on a step less than three meters wide, and below the step was a sewage channel filled with dark bubbling liquid.
Gurgling sounds could be heard all along the way, as if there were some monsters hidden under the sewage ditch, shrieking at the already polluted air.
At this moment, Ingres finally understood something.
Why do people in the underground neighborhoods yearn to be on the surface?
The air was foul, the smell was foul, everything was broken and tattered, white maggots were crawling on the ground, and there were unknown creatures in the gutter...
If a normal person lives here for a period of time, even if he is not sick, he will probably get sick. What's more, there are terrifying mutated infectious diseases here.
"There are some snakes and insects in the ditch. Although they are poisonous, there is no need to worry as long as guests do not get close to them."
Harman seemed to notice that Ingres's eyes were frequently looking at the sewage canal, and explained.
Angel: “Thanks for the reminder.”
Ingres wanted to talk to Harman, but the other party didn't seem to be interested in conversation. He just gave him a reminder and remained silent.
Angel looked at the other person's figure, and his eyes flickered.
Harman... is a mutant.
Although he looks like a normal person, under the mask, there is a piece of hanging flesh on his face with an eye on it.
It looks extremely terrifying.
However, Angel perceived it through the God's perspective and found that the proliferating organs did not seem to be abnormal.
Just like a normal organ.
There was no sign of illness in his body...
Maybe it’s because this is a copy and all the NPCs’ bodies have been recast?
Angel shook his head and didn't delve into it any further.
Led by Harman, they soon arrived at the official block. The section of the sewage canal they had walked through before was actually just the periphery of the block.
The formal underground block is cleaner than the previous section of the road.
Even the lights on the road were brighter.
However, there is still a faint smell of sour smell in the air, which seems to have become the main theme of the underground block.
The appearance of the formal block is a bit like that of a "first-tier city". There are no horizontal or vertical blocks here, only a not very clear canal and small paths on both sides of the canal.
Along the road, there are a large number of densely built sheet-like houses.
The streets left for pedestrians are extremely narrow.
"According to the words of the people on the ground, this is a suburb, and it's full of... mutants living here." After arriving here, Harman finally said his first sentence: "The wishing tree is located in the center of the underground block, and the environment there is much better than here."
