God Tower: Gnome Ruins
Du Ze's field of vision was filled with the color of metal. The city of steel was illuminated by large and small balls of light. This familiar scene reminded Du Ze of its name – Gnome Ruins.
In front of them was a circular square with a group of iron gnome statues in the center. Seeing the arrival of Xiu and Du Ze, the group of iron gnomes suddenly "came to life." They jumped up and down, beating gongs and drums. A line of flashing words appeared above their heads: "Welcome to the 'home', this is the Gnome Kingdom." One of the iron gnomes took out something that looked like a large part and held it in both hands, seemingly wanting to give it to them. Du Ze didn't know why he felt that the part in the iron gnome's hands was very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before. After expressing their welcome, all the iron gnomes solidified into iron statues again. Only the welcoming fireworks still shone in the square.
All of this was not magic, but purely mechanical and technical performances. When Xiu was trapped in the Gate of Wisdom to learn forging techniques, Old John led Du Ze to visit this square – this is the "circle" at the bottom of the Kabbalah Tree of Life, representing the "Kingdom" and the real entrance to the Gnome Inner City. Du Ze had also seen the performance of these iron gnome statues after tens of thousands of years, but at that time, there were no iron gnome statues holding something to show them. It seems that this is an automatic addition to the content of the god tower.
As Rachel said, the gnome's quest is really the Gnome Ruins. Although he has the advantage of being familiar with the place, Du Ze can't relax. The reason is very simple: the beautiful but irrational beast behind him is biting him.
Du Ze doesn't know whether to worry about Rachel's group or him, who is about to join the McDonald's Value Dinner. Suddenly, Xiu, who was biting his collar, raised his head. Du Ze looked at the street in front of him. Suddenly, there was the sound of "click" footsteps. A pair of blue lights appeared from the depths of the street and a tall one-star mechanical puppet approached from afar.
"Beep – Life detected x2; Race determined, beep – Not a gnome; Alignment determined, beep – Unable to identify; Comprehensive determined …"
Before the mechanical puppet could finish speaking, it was brutally destroyed by Xiu and its parts scattered all over the ground. Du Ze felt that Xiu's breath on the back of his neck was unusually hot, like a volcano about to erupt.
The sound of mechanical footsteps could be heard from the streets on the left and right sides of the street. Xiu bit his silly, cute mouth and rushed straight into the middle of the street and jumped onto a high balcony. The beast crouched down and entered the house from the balcony. This was about the size of a gnome's workshop, and the space inside was unexpectedly spacious. The owner of the workshop seemed to be a very tidy gnome. The floor was so clean that there was nothing at all. The parts were arranged neatly on the wall, and the finished work was neatly lined up. There was a faint smell of engine oil in the air.
The mechanical puppets on the street passed by the balcony. They only patrolled the streets and squares of the Gnome Ruins and did not enter the houses. After the moving metal bodies moved away, Xiu finally loosened his teeth and put Du Ze down.
*****
He had rubbed the crab before.

Du Ze slept in a mess. He had been tossed around miserably. The beast did not want to give up until it squeezed out the last bit of energy from him. It kept forcing him to release until in the end, nothing came out. Even though he had not woken up yet, some silly, cute person could not help but shudder at the memory of the feeling of almost dying from excessive ejaculation. He turned over and continued to sleep on the warm and undulating "mattress."
Xiu stretched out his hand and lifted a strand of Du Ze's hair that was sleeping on his chest. That person was heavy and warm on his body, a weight that he could not bear to move away from. Xiu lowered his head. His keen sense of smell quickly caught Du Ze's scent, which made his heart itch unbearably.
The long tail streaked through the air and finally fell on Du Ze's leg, where it coiled loosely around him. At first, it was only wrapped around Du Ze's calf, but now it was getting higher and higher. The sleepy Du Ze felt itchy. He reached down and grabbed the tip of the lion's tail. Du Ze, who had just woken up, was still a little dazed. He first looked at the tail in his hand, then at Xiu's indescribable expression. His furry ears trembled violently as if they had been stimulated.
Du Ze was completely awake because he felt a very threatening heat against his waist. Some silly, cute person looked at Xiu Yin's golden eyes, which had already lit up, and made a pitiful deathbed struggle.
"We … should go up the tower …"
Xiu's response was to raise his lion ears and say indifferently: "We'll talk about it after we're done."
He turned over and pressed Du Ze under him, catching Du Ze's reaction when he had just woken up. The smile on his face was pleasant and playful.
"But you touched my tail …"
This morning, Du Ze deeply understood what it means to touch a lion's tail … As an earthling, who the hell knows that the tail is a sensitive part of the beast race?!
By the time Du Ze and Xiu set foot on the streets of the Gnome Ruins, it was already the third day of the gnome quest. At this time, Du Ze looked at any furry object as if he was looking at a landmine. Even when he saw a shiny mechanical puppet without any fur, Du Ze almost shed tears.
Xiu dealt with the mechanical puppets that tried to attack them. In front of the Moe Lord, a one-star to four-star mechanical puppet would turn into parts. Du Ze looked at Xiu's back and the fallen mechanical puppet. He could not help but recall the first time they met a mechanical puppet on the reverse side of the continent. At that time, even a one-star mechanical puppet could cause a lot of trouble for them. Now, even a five-star mechanical puppet can be easily taken down by Xiu. Unknowingly, the Moe Lord has become so powerful. It turns out that they have been walking together for so long.
Du Ze's heart skipped a beat. It was like he was watching a child grow up, from stumbling around to walking proudly. He was proud and happy, but at the same time, he had the same position as all guardians – when the child grows up, it's time for them to leave.
"Those mechanical puppets are too troublesome."
Du Ze was caught off guard when Xiu picked him up. He quickly held Xiu's shoulder and heard the man happily say: "Hold me tight, let's speed up."
"…!"
Du Ze had no time to reply. The huge kinetic energy made his whole upper body stick to Xiu's back. Xiu carried Du Ze and ran through the streets like a shadow. Once he encountered a mechanical puppet, Xiu would use the terrain to jump and disappear before the mechanical puppets could collect any information about him.
Du Ze could only see Xiu's swaying tail in the air. The speed of the beasts was more exciting than a roller coaster. Just as he was about to faint, Xiu finally arrived at a circular square. As soon as they entered the circular square, the mechanical puppets on the street no longer pursued them. Du Ze was put down by Xiu and staggered. When the world stopped shaking, Du Ze recognized the circular square in front of him as the "Foundation" square.
Old John once told him that the gnome treasure described by the outside world was probably referring to the materials piled up in the "Foundation" square. The gnomes collected materials from all over the continent and placed them in the "Foundation" square. All gnomes could choose the corresponding materials according to their star rank. There were many S-level materials sought after by the outside world. Du Ze saw the material exchange machine in the middle of the "Foundation" square, but the machine was obviously not working because it was missing a part. Du Ze stared at the gap and compared it with the material exchange machine in his memory. Suddenly, he understood everything.
Isn't this the large part he saw in the hands of the gnome iron statue two days ago?!
Recalling Rachel's words that "mechanical parts are needed to activate the square," Du Ze's intention was self-evident.
Xiu's memory of that day was a bit vague. After Du Ze told him about it, Xiu immediately went to fetch the parts for the "Kingdom" square. Du Ze, who has always been Xiu's equipment, was honored to once again ride the roller coaster. While he was still sitting in the "Foundation" square, Xiu pressed the missing part of the machine back.
The machine was activated in a flash, making a buzzing sound. The whole square seemed to wake up and the pattern on the ground flashed like a circuit. Du Ze walked over to Xiu's side and found that the Moe Lord had been staring at the material exchange machine, seemingly thinking about something.
Seeing Du Ze come over, Xiu reached out and hugged his silly, cute pet. His tail was unwilling to be left out. Leaning against Du Ze, Xiu shifted his gaze from the machine to the mechanical puppets wandering the streets, and finally to the whole of the gnome ruins.
"I suddenly have an idea."
Under Du Ze's gaze, Xiu grinned. Unfamiliar appearance, familiar lines, this scene was both familiar and strange.
"Let's give it a try."
One day later.
A two-star mechanical puppet wandered aimlessly on the streets of the gnome ruins. Suddenly, it glanced at two figures.
"Beep – Life detected x2; Conducting race identification. Beep – Gnome detected!" The blue light in the mechanical puppet's eyes flashed. "Conducting identity identification. Beep – Xiu, six-star mechanic; Number XH 33321 is at your service, please instruct."
Du Ze couldn't help but praise the god tower for having a conscience. Unexpectedly, the god tower has imitated the Moe Lord to such an extent – no, he should have expected it. The god tower is completely unprincipled and biased towards the Moe Lord. Now, the whole gnome ruins is like a back garden for the gnome Xiu ah! Since the branch of the Tree of Life in the elf dungeon rebelled, the Moe Lord began to show them what it means to have the best – now all the mechanical puppets in the Gnome ruins have become the Moe Lord's subordinates!
Du Ze looked at the small Xiu directing the huge mechanical puppets to help him move things and wanted to cover his face in every sense of the word.
Although he was separated from Rachel and the others, Du Ze felt that it would not be a problem for Xiu to complete the dungeon alone – even if the Moe Lord brought him along. At this time, they had arrived at the "Glory" Square, where the gnome star certification machine was placed. As long as they submitted a work and passed the verification, they would be able to upgrade the mechanic's star. Similarly, the machine was missing important parts.
According to the general situation of the tower climbers, at this time, they would have to collect the parts dropped by the six-star mechanical puppets, but for the gnomes – do they still need to look for them? Just make one of them.
Xiu had almost emptied the "basic" square of all the materials that could be used. The long line of mechanical puppets was like a loyal butler following the queen out shopping, carrying materials and following Xiu. In fact, Xiu could even let those six-star mechanical puppets die in front of him, but the reason why Xiu turned into a gnome was to prepare for the final boss battle.
Rachel said that the whole city, the place where we are standing … is an eight-star mechanical puppet.
Du Ze looked at Xiu who was making the parts. The flaxen-haired gnome's hands were slender and weak, but it was these hands that could overturn the outcome of the eight-star mechanical puppet – making a little trick in the parts was not too much, right?
With Xiu's cheat, the gnome's progress in the dungeon can only be described as terrible. Du Ze even felt that they were already cheating. It is reasonable to say that every floor of the tower will come up with some tricks to brainwash the tower climbers. Now that Xiu has broken all the rules and is unstoppable, he can't understand the "bitter conscience" of the tower. In this regard, the tower is unusually tolerant, tolerant to the point that it is somewhat abnormal.
With a refreshing and somewhat uneasy mood, Du Ze and Xiu pushed their way to the "Victory" square. They have passed the "Power", "Understanding", "Crown", "Wisdom", and "Mercy" squares, basically circling the Kabbalah Tree of Life clockwise. In addition to the "Victory" square in front of them, there is only the "Beautiful" square in the middle.
Xiu is still making parts while Du Ze, as usual, began to wander around the square. He can't be too far away from Xiu because the mechanical puppets will reset him as an enemy. Xiu is very satisfied with this. The flaxen-haired gnome always stressed that Du Ze can't leave his line of sight. Even while making parts, Xiu would occasionally determine Du Ze's location.
Each square is used by the gnomes for different purposes. The "Victory" square is used as an exhibition area for the gnomes. All kinds of wonderful machines are placed here to be evaluated by others. Through the introduction written in the gnome language, Du Ze can probably figure out what the machines are used for. Du Ze felt like he had returned to the 21st century. He saw refrigerators, electronic calendars, electronic clocks, and prototypes of cameras. These machines are still working normally. Du Ze also saw a solar light bulb. Its evaluation is quite high, but after seeing it, Du Ze felt embarrassed – since there is a sun, what is the use of a light bulb?
Some of these gadgets are really interesting, such as the one in Du Ze's hand. This is a detector that can detect the specific time of appearance of things. Du Ze shone it on the electronic clock next to him and it showed "H2D2D1L"
Du Ze had to use the translator next to him to figure out what it was saying. While debugging the translator, Du Ze inadvertently moved the detector. It looked up and directly showed Du Ze: "Z1H6MZ3D
LLL”。
It can even take pictures of people?
Du Ze calculated the time between Earth and this world and found that the machine was unexpectedly reliable. Du Ze's heart began to beat heavily. He looked up at Xiu, who was making parts.
Click.
Xiu's pointed ears moved. He stopped what he was doing and looked at Du Ze not far away. He saw the black-haired youth holding a machine and looking at it with a strange expression on his face.
The gnome dropped the parts and walked over to Du Ze. Because his steps were small, he walked very fast and looked like he was trotting.
"What's wrong?"
Du Ze looked at Xiu and was silent for a moment before saying: "Today is your birthday."
"Birthday?" Xiu repeated with some doubt. That doubt made Du Ze uncomfortable because the gnome seemed to be talking about something he didn't understand. He didn't know why Du Ze was so moved.
"… Let's celebrate." Du Ze said seriously: "What do you want? I will try my best to satisfy your wish today."
Hearing Du Ze's words, Xiu's amber eyes widened slightly. He didn't think there was anything to celebrate, but he wouldn't let go of this opportunity that was delivered to his door.
"Anything?"
Xiu's voice was soft and sweet, but Du Ze didn't know why he was a little hesitant. He really wanted to satisfy all the wishes of the Moe Lord, but he didn't know why he always had a bad feeling about what was going to happen next. Some stupid, cute person thought about it and could only think that the Moe Lord would "destroy" him at most in that aspect.
… At most, after being beaten by the Moe Lord, this young man will lie in bed for a day and be a good man again!
Du Ze suppressed the constant warning from his sixth sense and firmly nodded (dead) to his family's Moe Lord.
Under Du Ze's gaze, the corners of Xiu's mouth curved up and a pair of very cute dimples appeared on the gnome's small face.
"I want to read your book."
Xiu said with a smile.
"Last time I only read eight pages, but I always wanted to finish it."
