How to Feed an Abyss!

Chapter 93.2 – The Secret Town

After taking two or three more steps, Shi Yuan pointed to a dark green fish: “What is this?”

Lu Tinghan: “……”

Lu Tinghan: “Fish.”

“What about the one next to it?”

“Fish.”

“What are the names of those two?”

“Little fish.”

“What about that?”

“Big fish.”

“Those ones?”

“Little fish.”

Shi Yuan finally realized something was wrong: “Do you have no idea what they are called?”

Lu Tinghan: “Yes.”

Shi Yuan said, “Ah! I thought you knew everything.”

“I only know the common ones,” Lu Tinghan smiled, “I have never seen the sea.”

Shi Yuan: “Oh.”

It was also quite strange to say.
Looking at those aquariums, Shi Yuan could almost imagine the scene of seaweed floating and fish swimming.
They spit out circles of bubbles in their mouths, swing their fins, and hide in the rockery, waiting for the arrival of the little princess.

Decades later, looking around, the living creatures turned into sludge, but the nailed specimens remained to this day.

Shi Yuan said: “Well, I haven’t seen it either.
But today we can see the sea together.”

They walked among the schools of fish.

No one knew those fish, so it was time for Shi Yuan to play freely.

Shi Yuan said: “This fish has a pattern, I want to call it a zebrafish.
Although I have never seen a zebra.”

Lu Tinghan agreed: “Okay.”

“This one I’m going to call it a camelfish.”

Lu Tinghan said, “It doesn’t look like a camel.”

“I know, but I like it as much as I like camels,” Shi Yuan said, “From today on, it will be a camelfish.”

Lu Tinghan expressed support: “Okay.”

Shi Yuan: “This is Cheng Youwenfish.”

“Why?”

“Because it has a stinky face.”

Lu Tinghan expressed understanding: “…hmm.”

Shi Yuan: “This red one is Qin Luoluofish, she always likes to wear a red skirt.
This is a Tracyfish, its head is a bit like a cat.
This… this is Lu Tinghanfish.”

Lu Tinghan looked at the gray and unidentified object with dead fish eyes, and was silent for half a second: “Why?”

“Because it looks like a piece of garbage.”

Lu Tinghan objected: “… Shi Yuan, don’t look at it anymore.”

General Lu vetoed Shi Yuan’s right to name the fish with one vote, leading him out of this area.

Further ahead were more aquariums, but they were all broken, like…something broke free from it.

Lu Tinghan examined: “The school of sky fish we encountered may have escaped from here.”

“Maybe?” Shi Yuan said, “There are so many kinds of fish here.”

“After all, it was built by the king’s order, so it must be the best,” Lu Tinghan said, “Just to make Alicia happy.”

“He must love her very much.”

“Of course.”

After walking through the town on this floor, Lu Tinghan did not find any obvious damage.

As a gift for his daughter, Morton naturally took into account safety issues and strengthened the surroundings to be airtight.

Lu Tinghan said: “If this is the case in other places, then this will be a good hiding place.
The security measures that Morton has made are just enough to deal with monsters, it is also enough for our abyss analog signal coverage.

The abyss analog signal coverage.”

Shi Yuan’s eyes lit up: “Really? That’s great!”

The surprise came unexpectedly.
If the whale hadn’t flicked its tail, they would not have discovered this secret world.

“Let’s take a look at the next floor,” Lu Tinghan’s tone also relaxed a bit.

They came to the stairs on the next floor.

Lu Tinghan found an old gun at the entrance of the stairs.

The gun was pure white, and the golden lion of the Empire was engraved on the handle.

He said: “This is the gun of the Empire’s royal guards.”

Shi Yuan asked, “What are the royal guards?”

Lu Tinghan: “The army that guards important people is smaller in number.
As a princess, Alicia must have her own guards.” He glanced at the stairs and saw bullet holes, “It seems they fought here.
The royal guards are generally by the side of the royal family, that is to say, a member of the royal family was here when they were attacked, most likely Alicia or Morton.”

Walking down the stairs, bullet holes could be seen everywhere on the walls, and brass-colored bullet casings were scattered on the ground.
The stairs were badly damaged, some were completely flattened, but fortunately, they did not collapse.

The light of the flashlight flickered across the wall.

The walls of this area were full of murals.

At the beginning, there was a baby swaddled in the arms of the king.

After that, there was Alicia lying in the stroller, Alicia as a toddler, Alicia who learned to speak with teeth, Alicia holding a doll, and Alicia combing her hair in the mirror.…

Alicia standing by the window in a white dress, looking up on tiptoe, her blonde hair shining in the sun; Alicia carrying a young white fox, running through the garden, her ankles stained with dew and grass clippings; Alicia riding a red-brown pony, walking with the king’s tall horse, and the road in the field was long, and she reached out to pick a golden autumn leaf.

She was always dressed beautifully.

Teams of guards and housekeepers ran after her, circling her, often listening to her squeamish anger.

The most beautiful pearls, the brightest flowers, and the most precious jewelry in the world were all in her bedroom, which she got tired of playing for a few days.
The delicacies of the mountains and seas, gold, silver, and jewelry, she dared to make a fuss to pick the sun and the moon.

Then the streets were lit up, and even the industrial robots were hung with ribbons and decorated with flowers.

People greeted the convoy with cheers, and the guards stood in a circle with cold guns.
Alicia and Morton sat in the open-top car, smiling and waving.

As a member of the royal family, Alicia had to learn to speak publicly at a young age.

When Morton’s speech was over, he made a “please” gesture – and for the first time, the young princess stood in front of the Empire’s people and opened her mouth.

She said she was honored to have them all standing here today.

She said that she was very proud that the “blazing sun” destroyed the enemy and the Empire won an unprecedented victory in the last battle.

She raised her head high, like a proud and willful little swan, and said, “One day, the Alliance will fall at our hands.
This is the era of the Empire!”

The applause was overwhelming.

Today, the mural was broken.

The grand occasion of the past was pierced by bullet holes.

Shi Yuan looked intently and asked, “Did Moulton have these painted?”

Lu Tinghan: “Definitely.”

“He really loves her.
Do you think Alicia will still be alive?” Shi Yuan stepped over a pile of rubble, “Will they survive this battle?”

Lu Tinghan said, “We’ll find out.”

After walking for a while, Shi Yuan stuffed a bag of bear biscuits into Lu Tinghan’s hand.

Lu Tinghan said, “Aren’t you angry, and you plan to not give it to me anymore?”

Shi Yuan said, “Because I also love you very much!”

Lu Tinghan: “……”

Although it was not the right place, he really didn’t hold back and kissed Shi Yuan.

Going further, they came to an open area.

The lights came on silently – the soft lights here were comparable to natural light.
At this moment, they really thought they were outdoors.

The artificial dome was blue, and the light of the sky was bright.

A sea of large, pink and purple flowers.

The last layer of the secret town was purple and pink, and in the distance, the sea of fuchsia was fluffy and lively.

Alicia preferred pink and purple, and this was her back garden.
She was such a beauty lover, and she’d always put flowers on her head.

Shi Yuan: “Wow!”

He liked flowers, and when he walked into the sea of flowers, he heard a “crack—” under his feet.

He lowered his head and saw the broken bones.

Beneath the sea of flowers lay a dense mass of white bones.

The white gun sunk into the soil, and the Empire’s lion sash was tangled with the bones.
A fierce battle ended here, and the flowers witnessed the end of the story.
