Chapter 670 Tavern

Bai Ye gently folded the drawing and put it carefully into his breast pocket, as if it was his most precious treasure. He stood up and cast a firm look at Magneto. The two of them walked out of the door in tacit agreement without saying anything. Although the city in the night is still shrouded in the shadow of doomsday, it is no longer as dead and desperate as before.

They walked through the factory gate and re-entered the city. On both sides of the street, although the buildings are still dilapidated, many residents have settled here. Under the dim light, children were chasing and playing, while adults sat around, sharing stories and food with each other. These warm scenes are in sharp contrast to the previous desolation, which makes people feel filled with emotion.

Bai Ye and Magneto walked slowly on the street. Their footsteps echoed in the empty street, but they did not disturb this rare tranquility. Their eyes swept over every corner, observing the living conditions of the residents, with mixed feelings in their hearts.

"Look, those children." Magneto suddenly stopped and pointed at a group of children playing not far away. "They don't seem to know the cruelty and danger of this world. They only know how to enjoy the happiness in front of them."

Bai Ye nodded, a hint of complicated emotions flashing in his eyes. "Yes, they are innocent. We must create a better future for them so that they can grow up without worries."

The two continued walking and soon came to a market organized by residents. The place is filled with all kinds of goods. Although most of them are old items collected from the ruins, they have taken on new life under the skillful hands of the residents. They were exchanging food and supplies, or bargaining, with smiles of satisfaction and joy on their faces.

Bai Ye and Magneto walked into the market and were immediately infected by the lively atmosphere. They walked around casually, chatting with the residents from time to time. Most of these residents come from different backgrounds and professions, but under the baptism of doomsday, they unite to face the challenges of life together.

"Sir Baiye, you are here again." A middle-aged woman greeted enthusiastically. She was holding a few bags of freshly obtained food in her hands with a simple smile on her face. "Thanks to the efforts of you and Lord Magneto, We can live like this.”

Bai Ye responded with a smile, but there was a bitterness in her heart. "Don't say that, we are just doing what we should do. This city and its residents are worthy of our efforts to protect them."

They continued on and met an old man who was repairing machinery. The old man has white hair, but his eyes are extremely firm and focused. The tools in his hand flew between his nimble fingers, and after a while, a seemingly scrapped machine came to life again.

"Old man, your craftsmanship is really amazing." Magneto couldn't help but admire, "In such an environment, you can still maintain such a mentality and skills. It's really admirable."

The old man raised his head with a humble smile on his face. "No, no, it's just some tricks. As long as I can help everyone, I'll be satisfied."

Byakuya and Magneto stayed in the market for a long time and talked with many residents. They heard many touching stories and experiences, and saw the residents' resilience and optimism in difficult times. However, behind this warmth and harmony, they also clearly felt the difficulties and challenges facing the city.

"Bai Ye, can we really change all this?" Magneto's voice suddenly became low and heavy, "This city and these residents need not only our help and shelter, but also a truly stable society. , a sustainable future.”

Bai Ye was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "I know this is difficult, but we must try our best. No matter how many difficulties and challenges there are ahead, we cannot give up hope. Because only in this way can we contribute to this city and its Residents create a better future.”

The two looked at each other and saw firmness and determination in each other's eyes. They know that the road ahead will be full of unknowns and hardships, but as long as they work together and work together, they will be able to overcome all difficulties and realize their dreams.

As the night gets darker, the lights in the market gradually go out. Bai Ye and Magneto said goodbye to the residents and started back to the factory again. Their hearts were filled with complex emotions and emotions, but more importantly, they were filled with expectations and longing for the future. They know that this city and its residents will always be their most precious asset and source of motivation.

Bai Ye and Magneto walked out of the market side by side. It was already dark, but some corners of the city were still dimly lit, as if they were unyielding beacons in the darkness, guiding the direction and warming people's hearts. They passed through narrow and winding streets, taking each step with determination and hope, and finally arrived at the foot of the tallest tower in the city.

This tower was once a landmark building in the city. Before the end, it was a glorious symbol that countless people looked up to. However, after the disaster, it was once reduced to ruins. It was the indomitable spirit and hard work of the residents that made it stand up again. Although the appearance is still mottled, it contains new power inside.

There is an observation deck at the top of the tower, one of the few places where you can overlook the entire city. Bai Ye and Magneto looked at each other, and without saying anything, they stepped onto the stairs to the top of the tower together. On both sides of the stairs are the traces left by the years and witnesses of the residents rebuilding their homes. Every step seemed so heavy and full of hope.

When they finally stood on the top of the tower, the scene in front of them shocked both of them. The whole city spread out in the night, with dim lights, like stars falling into the mortal world. Although most of the buildings are still dilapidated, the temporary residences, markets, and new buildings under construction organized by the residents are all emitting the light of life. They are intertwined to form a complex and vivid picture.

"Look, that's the result of our efforts." Bai Ye pointed to an area below, which is the new district of the city, which is being built step by step according to their planning map. High-rise buildings are rising from the ground. Although they have not been fully completed, they have taken shape and the future is promising.

Magneto nodded silently, with both relief and worry in his eyes. "Yes, we have indeed made some achievements, but there is still a long way to go. This city and its residents need our continued efforts and protection."

The two stood quietly on the observation deck, letting the night breeze blow across their faces, bringing a hint of coolness. They looked at the city with complex emotions in their hearts. There is nostalgia and regret for the past, there is cherishment and gratitude for the present, and there is also longing and expectation for the future.

"Magneto, do you believe it? One day, this city will restore its former glory, and even be better than before." Bai Ye suddenly broke the silence, his voice firm and powerful.

Magneto turned his head to look at Bai Ye, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. "I believe it. Because there are you, me, and all the people who have worked hard for this city. Our common strength is enough to change everything."

The two smiled at each other, and the tacit understanding and trust flowed between them again. They knew that although the road ahead was full of unknowns and challenges, as long as they worked hand in hand and worked together, nothing was impossible.

The city in the night was still quietly telling its story. Bai Ye and Magneto stood on the top of the tower, as if they had become part of the city, breathing and sharing the same fate with it. They looked into the distance, their hearts full of hope and determination. Because they knew that no matter how many difficulties and challenges there were ahead, they would go on unswervingly, for this city, for its residents, and for the faith and dreams in their hearts.

As time went by, the night deepened, but the lights of the city did not go out. They were like the brightest stars in the night sky, illuminating the way forward and warming everyone's heart. Bai Ye and Magneto stayed on the top of the tower for a long time until the first ray of morning light penetrated the clouds and sprinkled on this land. They knew that a new day had come, and they would continue to move forward, for this city, for its future, and for the everlasting hope and dream.

After walking down the tower, Bai Ye and Magneto stepped into the streets in the night. The buildings on both sides of the street still stood silently, but there was an unusual breath in the air. That was the breath of life, the warmth of people's perseverance and mutual support in adversity. They walked through several alleys and finally came to a tavern called "Light of Hope".

The lights of the tavern shone through the half-open windows and sprinkled on the wet stone road, which looked particularly warm. There is a slightly old sign outside the door, with the name of the tavern written in faded handwriting, and a short slogan: "No matter what the world is like, there is always a place for you here." This sentence seems to be a gentle comfort to every tired traveler.

Pushing open the door, a mixture of wine, food and a faint smell of tobacco hits the face. The tavern is not spacious, but it is well arranged. There are several paintings depicting the old and new appearance of the city hanging on the wall. There are several old wooden tables and benches in the corner. A dim oil lamp is lit on each table, adding a bit of warmth to this small space.

Bai Ye and Magneto found a seat by the window and sat down. The owner of the tavern - a middle-aged man with a kind face and deep eyes - immediately came up. "What do you want to drink?" His voice was low and gentle, as if it could soothe all the troubles in people's hearts.

"Two glasses of your best beer, and some simple side dishes." Bai Ye replied, and at the same time gave the owner a grateful smile. The boss nodded and turned to prepare their food and drinks.

There were not many guests in the tavern, but everyone's face was full of stories. They either talked in a low voice or meditated alone, but in this small space, they all found a moment of peace and relaxation. Bai Ye and Magneto were no exception. They sat quietly, enjoying this rare tranquility and warmth.

After a while, the boss came over with a tray and placed two glasses of beer and a few dishes in front of them. "Please enjoy." He said with a smile, then stepped aside and continued to work.

Bai Ye picked up the wine glass and took a sip of beer. The familiar taste instantly bloomed on the tip of the tongue, bringing a faint aroma of wheat and a hint of sweetness. He turned his head to look at Magneto and found that he was also tasting beer, with a satisfied expression on his face.

"The wine here is good." Magneto whispered, "Compared to those cold laboratories and battlefields, it's more relaxing here."

Bai Ye nodded, deeply agreeing. "Yes, this place is like our safe haven. No matter how cruel and difficult the outside world is, as long as we come back here, we can find a little warmth and comfort."

The two drank wine and ate side dishes in silence, occasionally exchanging a look or a brief word. They don't need too many words to understand each other's moods and thoughts. In this small tavern, they seemed to have returned to those simple and beautiful times in the past.

However, they also know that such time is short-lived. As the guardians of this city, they shoulder heavy responsibilities and missions. They must remain vigilant and awake at all times and work hard for the future of the city and the safety of its residents.

"Bai Ye, have you ever thought about our future?" Magneto suddenly broke the silence, his eyes became deep and complicated, "Can we really change the fate of this city? Can we bring real life to the residents? happiness and peace?”

Bai Ye put down his wine glass and looked at Magneto seriously. "I know this road is difficult, but I believe that as long as we work unremittingly, we will be able to change the fate of this city." He paused and continued, "And I am not just for this city. And fighting. I fight for the innocent residents. They long for peace, long for a home where they can live in peace, and I cannot let them down."

Magneto was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly. "You are right." He whispered, "We are not just fighting for ourselves. We are fighting for those who need our protection. No matter how many difficulties and challenges await us in the future, we must be brave Face them and overcome them.”

The two raised their glasses again and drank the ale in the glasses. That is not only encouragement and support for each other, but also firm belief and determination for the future. They know that no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lie ahead, as long as they work together and work together, they will be able to create a better future.

The lights in the tavern were still dim and warm, as if to encourage their faith and determination. And in a corner of this city, two figures are silently guarding it, guarding its residents, and guarding the everlasting hopes and dreams.
