Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Chapter 2 Prosperity

Before the housekeeper sent him down, Lurian thoughtfully handed him a piece of clothing from the side.

After all, the way Mo Rong looks now, letting him leave like this will really affect the appearance of the city.

Mo Rong, who was standing in the elevator, put on the robe and thought about what he had just experienced.

He was confused again.

Isn’t Lurian sleeping in the game? !

Mo Rong raised his head and looked at the top of the tower, with a look of astonishment on his face.

After coming back to his senses, Mo Rong was still a little in disbelief. After thinking about it, he decided to ask the butler next to him.

"Um, hello."

The butler nodded to him in response.

"I'm going to take the liberty to ask, who was that person just now?"

"That's the Lord Watcher."

Sure enough, as he thought, the person he was talking to just now was Watcher Lurian.

"But isn't Lord Watcher asleep?"

"Asleep?" The housekeeper looked at Mo Rong with confusion.

"It means becoming a Dreamkeeper to protect the seal, in order to prevent radiation from invading Hallownest again..."

"Um, guest, I don't understand what you are talking about."

"Just to prevent the radiation from awakening, King Bai decided..."

Morong became more and more energetic as he spoke, gesticulating as he spoke, while the housekeeper on the side looked at him blankly, wondering secretly in his heart.

Why do I understand every word he says, but when they are put together it becomes a mess?

"Guest, I'm sorry, I really don't understand what you are talking about."

Seeing his dazed look, Mo Rong sighed. It seemed that the housekeeper really didn't know, and now he couldn't handle it at all.

Lurien, the Watcher's Spire, the City of Tears.

This is undoubtedly the Hollow Knight. After all, he is the one who has played all the endings, but the plot that is happening now is something that he never thought he had seen before.

As the elevator slowly descended, the housekeeper said to Morong:

"Guest, I will send you here. I wish you a happy life."

"Hey..."

Morong wanted to ask something else, but after the butler finished speaking, he hurriedly controlled the elevator to rise to the top of the tower again.

The more Mo Rong thought about it, the more wrong he became. Looking around, he saw some figures wearing red robes like the housekeeper walking toward him.

This made him subconsciously want to take out the bone nail and smash it, but after touching for a long time, his hands were still empty. The insects did not pay attention to the stranger who appeared in the tower and walked past him.

Mo Rong finally discovered something was wrong. The bugs here were the same as the housekeeper just now. Their eyes were all pure black, without any orange light in sight.

This means that none of them have been infected by the radiation plague!

He continued to walk forward with some disbelief, but the people he saw were the same as before. He didn't know how many floors he went down, and after turning a few corners, he finally heard the sound of bone nails colliding in front of him.

Mo Rong hurriedly walked forward and saw many round beetles in groups of two, constantly slashing at each other with bone nails, and some even curled themselves into a ball and hit each other.

"I'll go, Liuxi Wanzi!"

This familiar attack method and round body made Mo Rong instantly think of the powerful enemy he encountered on the way to explore Lurian, the Watcher Knight.

He still remembered that when he met the Watcher Knight when he was a newbie, one of them was not knocked down, but the other one stood up again. The painful mask caused by the force of the two sides frequently appeared on him, and he has changed it since then. Get rid of the habit of looking at the head but not the buttocks.

The dusty scene in front of him made Mo Rong's heart tremble. It seemed that there were far more than six watcher knights here, and it was more like a knighthood.

Not to mention that he didn't have a weapon now, even if he had one, he would turn around and leave without hesitation. However, considering that the bugs he encountered just now were not infected, then the Watcher Knights in front of him must be equally fine.

Mo Rong took a few tentative steps forward and found that the Liuxi Wanzi ignored him and seemed to be focusing on training. He breathed a sigh of relief and slowly walked towards the elevator at the other end.

Murong was now more and more curious about what the world outside the tower was like. He rode the elevator all the way down. After the last elevator stopped on the ground, Murong finally arrived at the bottom of the tower.

Looking at the light not far away, Mo Rong crossed the bustling swarm of insects and gradually accelerated his pace. As the darkness in front of him gradually receded, the scene suddenly became wider.

A series of sedans covered with gorgeous red curtains were carried by two white maggots at the front and back, walking slowly on the street. Many bloated-backed beetles passed by, carrying shiny ores and carcasses on all sides. The beetle was pulling a two-wheeled cart, which carried something that looked like a snail shell. It must have been some kind of ore.

oh! There is also a long-necked weevil that is very eye-catching among the insects. It is also pulling a carriage. Oh no, it should be called an insect carriage.

Mo Rong still remembered that the guy had a long neck and looked cute, but he always wanted to eat him.

There are still some sentries with spears stationed at the bridge in the distance, but looking at their slightly lazy appearance, you can probably tell that few people dare to make trouble here.

After all, this is the City of Tears.

Mo Rong looked back at the top of the tower, but it was blurry because it was too high.

He walked forward, his eyes constantly looking at the shops on the side, which was quite novel.

"Take a look, take a look, the bone nail maker has worked hard, every piece is exquisite, and everything is of high quality. We are exploring the best way to defeat the enemy."

"Green's latest herbal medicine, it works immediately after application. It is a must-buy when going out and a must-have at home."

"Mountain Peak Secret Mine, a mountain peak secret mine with a chance to mine rare ores..."

Morong looked at the bustling scene around him, and he had to admit the fact that he had arrived at Hallownest, which was completely uninfected by the plague!

Murong looked at the vendor selling bone nails who was yelling at him, squatted down and asked:

"Boss, how do you sell these bone nails?"

When the vendor saw Mo Rong's outfit, his eyes lit up and he greeted him with a smile:

"I have good eyesight objectively. My bone nails have been forged for seventy-seven forty-nine days. I can defeat the enemy with one move and kill with two moves. The patterns on it are even more beautiful, an art that makes people unable to take their eyes away." ..."

"Stop, stop, stop, I'm asking you how to sell these bone nails." Mo Rong saw that the boss in front of him was going on and on, so he quickly interrupted.

"Oh, sorry, sorry."

"Sir, you are so lucky. You are the first one to visit my store today when it opens. You can choose any of the bone nails here, and they only cost... 800 euros!" The vendor made a gesture and said with a smile.

Morong had never been very clear about Gio's purchasing power, but he remembered that when he played games before, it seemed that upgrading bone nails cost seven or eight hundred, so this should be quite reasonable.

Thinking like this, Mo Rong looked at a more pleasing person in the booth and pointed.

"That's it, boss, wrap it up for me."

"okay!"

"By the way, where can I scan the QR code?"

Mo Rong subconsciously wanted to take out the mobile phone from his pocket, but as soon as he stretched his hand to his lower body, he froze immediately the next moment.

The vendor was very quick with his hands and feet. He wrapped the bone nails in a few clicks and prepared to hand them to Mo Rong, for fear that he wouldn't want them.

"Sir, this is the bone nail you want."

Then he asked with some confusion:

"What did the guest officer just say about feeding the horses?"

Mo Rong couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat as he looked at the vendor in front of him who was asking thoughtful questions.

"Damn, forget that I have traveled through time. How can I have a cell phone... Calm down... Calm down."

Mo Rong coughed and pretended to look at the other bone nails again.

"Boss, don't worry, I want to buy a few more just in case."

Then Mo Rong clicked his fingers, and the boss stared at the bone nails he pointed at, grinning almost to the back of his head.

"Hahaha, where did the stupid rich man come from? He is willing to buy this kind of thing for 800 euros. Is the overwhelming wealth finally going to hit me?"

The boss's hands and feet were very agile, and he didn't stop for a moment, immersed in packing the bone nails that Mo Rong pointed at.

"Huh~ It's finally wrapped, guest sir, this is you..."

As soon as the boss raised his head, the smile on his face disappeared without a trace.

There was only the slightest trace of Mo Rong in front of the stall. The boss quickly looked to the side, trying to find the figure of Mo Rong, but he couldn't find it after looking for a long time. He couldn't help but put his hands on his hips and cursed:

"How dare you entertain me like this? I better not catch you, otherwise I will stab you with bone nails."

Mo Rong, who had wandered far away, hid in a side alley, sat on the ground and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as he runs fast, Embarrassment cannot catch up with him.

At this time, a red-robed beetle happened to pass by him. He looked at Mo Rong, sighed softly, and dropped a Geo in front of Mo Rong.

Mo Rong looked at the leaving figure, his eyes full of disbelief.

Is this for me to beg for food?

Looking down at himself with only one piece of clothing on his body, and then looking out of the alley at the bustling land, Mo Rong suddenly felt desolate.

what is this?

You start with nothing but begging for equipment?
