Chapter 511 News


    The figure by the wall looked a little darker than other places, and it stood there motionless, as if it was frozen.


    This was obviously not the posture that ordinary people should have. After Malu noticed something strange, he turned around and ran away. While running, he took out the Aegis of Destiny, threw it up and caught it again.


    A number 9 appeared in the blank space of the chip.


    Malu put away the protection of fate and kept moving, looking back while escaping. Fortunately, the black shadow on the other side of the street did not pursue him.


    Could it be... a misunderstanding? It''s just a statue?


    However, out of caution, Malu didn''t go back. He decided to go somewhere else. But the further he walked, the stronger the strange feeling in his heart became.


    The street he is on now is a bit like the Shanghai Bund of the last century, and the area is quite prosperous.


    Rows of green and red brick buildings line both sides of the street, with all kinds of neon signs hanging on them, but without exception, none of them light up.


    The number of illustrations unlocked by Malu in the last dimension has exceeded 600, and he has received a new title - Knowledgeable Knowledge.


    After wearing this title, he was finally able to get rid of his illiterate status and understand the words of other planes. However, the price was that the original title of ingredient collector could no longer be used, and the maximum load capacity of the collection bag was reduced by 100 kilograms.


    But the problem is not big. Malu now has a lot of money, so he spent some money to upgrade the collection bag to another level, keeping the maximum load unchanged.


    After walking in the dark for a while, his eyes gradually adapted to the dim environment.


    I barely recognized the words on the neon sign in front of me - Yangyang Dance Hall. There were several retro-looking cars and bicycles parked outside the main entrance of the dance hall.


    In addition, there were railroad tracks in the middle of the street where Malu was walking, and there were dense wires above his head, covering the entire city like a spider web.


    Next door to the Yangyang Ballroom is Zheng Kee Pen Shop, and diagonally opposite there is a newsstand.


    This also confirmed Ma Lu''s previous conjecture that this place should be a lively area in the city, with many shops open.


    But the strange thing is that there is no one on the street except him. In fact, there is no one not only on the street, but also in those buildings.


    This made Malu think about going to the next level.


    Could it be that another large-scale disaster broke out here, causing everyone in the city to flee or die?


    But Ma Lu reached out and touched the hood of a black car next to him, and found that it was still a little warm.


    This is even more strange. It''s impossible for everyone in the city to suddenly disappear.


    Malu continued walking forward with questions, and soon he came to another shop.


    It was a toy store. Through the window, Malu could see the toys displayed in the store, including music boxes, tin frogs, kites, rattles... But what really caught his attention was a set of dolls.


    Those dolls are made of wood. It can be seen that the craftsman''s skills are good and the carvings are lifelike. They have different postures. Some are standing with guns, some are punching, and some are suspended by silk threads, making flying kicks. Come…


    In addition, their names are engraved on the base - Great Mourning God, Fire Bodhisattva, Storm Fist...


    What is this, a figure of the Republic of China?


    Of course, considering that the little devils in any plane like cool things, it is not surprising that someone in this plane discovered the business opportunity early and made the figure arrive a hundred or two hundred years earlier.


    What really caught Ma Lu''s attention was the slogan posted on the glass - a perfect replica of a real person, let the heroes accompany you to grow up! Not far from the toy store is the movie theater. The entire wall of the movie theater has been painted as a billboard. On it is a masked woman wearing ice armor fighting a strange beast with fire all over her body.


    There are also **** characters written below - "Ice Phoenix vs. Vulpix" will premiere in the city on April 19th! Watch the heroine''s style up close!


    Marvel and DC will probably call themselves experts after looking at it. Not only were the superheroes here born early, but the surrounding millet is also very complete.


    Ma Lu looked a little ready to move, but unfortunately there was no one in the cinema. The projectionist had gone somewhere, and no one was showing the movie.


    At this time, Malu remembered something again and turned back to the previous newsstand.


    I took a newspaper from inside and spread it out. The date on the newspaper was April 15, 79th year of Qi Yuanli. The headline on the front page was about the war in neighboring countries, followed by the newly promulgated automobile road law. In short, it was all about Government news.


    But soon Ma Lu saw the promotion of the new movie "Ice Phoenix vs. Vulpix" on the second page, as well as the news that Ice Phoenix himself would arrive in Xindu on the night of the 18th to cooperate with the distributor to participate in the premiere.


    Hey, there really is such a person, is he an actor?


    Ma Lu then scrolled back and saw a disaster warning on the third page. It said that Jiulongyi had detected that there might be a small disaster in Xindu in the near future. Residents were asked not to stray into the disaster area.


    At this time, Ma Lu already had some speculations in his mind, but is it really okay to put such important news behind the entertainment news on the third page?


    After this disaster warning, there was another news, which said that the enrollment of various Talisman schools was coming to an end, reminding all new students to enroll in time.


    Seeing this, Malu had roughly figured out what was going on here, but he still patiently scanned the news at the back of the newspaper.


    Mainly because I wanted to collect more information about that small disaster.


    Unfortunately, apart from the tofu-sized warning, there was no other relevant news in the newspaper. Instead, the reporter added two pages of tidbits about the Metropolis Police Commissioner''s marriage to the ninth concubine''s concubine.


    It focuses on describing the beautiful appearance of the Nine Aunt Tai, who is youthful and lovely.


    Seeing that he couldn''t find any valuable clues, Ma Lu put down the newspaper again.


    Judging from the unhurried look of Xindu Daily, maybe this disaster is not serious? But where have all the people in the city gone?


    Malu thought as he walked, but the next moment he bumped into something.


    He rubbed his nose and found nothing in front of him.


    Then he tried to take a step again, and his left foot seemed to be kicked on a ball of cotton, and then bounced back again.


    Air wall? This means that this area is cordoned off. No wonder no one has been seen for so long.


    Malu was not too panicked, because from the newspaper, people here should be familiar with this situation and would have corresponding solutions.


    He looked around and found the tallest building, which was a bank. Malu climbed up and looked down, and found a little light three streets away.


    Although the light was weak, it was still quite conspicuous in the dark city.
