After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 677

After the past few days of their stay, Benny and the others had fallen in love with Alterra.

And this made their imminent departure that much more heartbreaking.

However, they still knew they were sent here because they asked to—because they wanted to see what the ’main territory’ was like.

Sadly, now they had seen it, they didn’t want to leave.

Anyway, as reluctant as they were, responsibility and duty still emerged over temptation (they were real men).

After all, they would be the mainstays in Limestone Valley, with some of the original members of the Terran Mercenary team assisting with their leveling until they hired aborigines who could do so in their stead.

Benny didn’t bother hiding his reluctance though and Sammy, an old friend, patted his shoulder. "Relax. Limestone Valley is now part of Alterra. Just wait for it to change positively under us. Besides, maybe they already improved things while you were here."

"Hmn, you’re right," Benny said, feeling a bit better. Even if they couldn’t be as good as Altera, even getting a bit of its quality was already infinitely better than those other territories outside.

This time it was Luis’ turn to bring them there. "This will be the last time we’ll escort you. Please train harder," he said and they blushed a bit, though agreeing in their hearts.

They were soldiers for goodness sakes! They couldn’t be escorted to and fro every time!

Garan and the others sent them off, and Vanessa naturally couldn’t go without sending googley eyes at the captain (which was, of course, ignored). She was particularly blatant now that Althea was nowhere in sight.

Before they went away though, Eagle ran to them. He was closely followed behind by a tall, skeleton-thin man with medium-length hair.

"Wait!"

"Eagle? And who’s this?"

"This is Reddit, our Animal Trainer."

Luis couldn’t help but take a closer look at Reddit, feeling that he’d be blown away if a monster sneezed on him.

"Oh? Can you train beasts, then?"

Reddit shook his head. "No, at leath not yet. My inheritanth doethn’t thay anything," he said. "I can only influenth and train non-aggrethive creaturth."

"Including Broats?" He asked, as if not hearing the lisp at all.

"I’ve already taken Chucky ath my apprentith," Reddit said. "Hith focuth ith on Broath and other livethock."

They nodded, quite curious as to what this implied. Heyhey maybe even milk quality could get improved. Who knows.

"Anyway, we stopped you to get you this," Eagle said, revealing a small cage with two birds inside. They blinked, even Vanessa stared.

They were very little, and very very adorable. Their size was smaller than the palm and they had unique velvety feathers. They went by so fast that they were basically invisible to the low-level people there.

"They’re very cute. These are the legendary non-monstrous birds?"

"Yes, we’ll be using them to communicate, for now."

Allied and subsidiaries could send some short messages via the VIllage centers, but it ironically wasn’t like that for satellites. After all, satellites didn’t have lords, which were required to access the messages.
