Chapter 447: Orange Zone
Chapter 447: Orange Zone
Wah Wah Wah instantly saw through Yao Xing's disguise.
Yao Xing shifted her gaze to the left, her voice faltering:
“I... I just came for a stroll.”
“The Purple Zone and the Blue Zone are adjacent, and the masters' artworks are truly excellent…”
“So you just casually strolled for over ten kilometers?” Wah Wah Wah directly cut off Yao Xing's excuse: “The Art festival is coming up soon. Aren't you supposed to be busy rehearsing at the theater? How do you have time to stroll around?”
“Just tell me, what do you really want from me?”
“……”
If Yao Xing were an ordinary girl, she might have been at a loss after Wah Wah Wah's scathing remarks. But Yao Xing was a professional actress.
Facing this situation, she immediately slipped into the role of Lady Yarost from "The Summer of Sotnia," a character who was enthusiastic about socializing and had a thick skin.
In the next second, a confident smile immediately appeared on Yao Xing's face.
It was as if a social phobe suddenly had been possessed by a social butterfly, her eyes shining with bright and confident light:
“Selina, your performance in 'The Fifth Opera - Midnight Phantom' was unparalleled, and it still lingers vividly in my memory.”
“I understand your reluctance to return to the stage.”
“But I hope you could share some of your past stage experiences with me.”
“Don't act with me now!” Wah Wah Wah saw through Yao Xing's state and rolled her eyes, “This kind of excuse won’t work. There are plenty of older actors in the theater who are more skilled than me.”
“Why do you need to pester someone like me who has long left the stage?”
Yao Xing replied with serious confidence:
“Everything requires a practical approach.”
“Focusing only on the great actors of the past can easily trap you into imitation. Among the younger generation of women, you are one of the few better than me. Besides you, where else could I find such a suitable mentor?”
“……”
“I no longer sing or perform.”
Wah Wah Wah turned her head and walked away, the good mood she had all morning instantly vanished.
She no longer acknowledged Yao Xing, grabbing Lindsey's hand and heading north.
The Orange Zone is located in the northwest of Thousand Sails City.
Numerous sculptors and architects have settled here, and houses with various design concepts stand staggered and interspersed.
There are historical stone buildings that exude a sense of longevity, warm brick houses that give a cozy feeling, and some innovative residences with simple designs and clear spaces that resemble modern architecture.
However, just like other districts.
The most eye-catching feature here is the towering structure in the city center, with a castle built around it.
Looking around, the entire district resembles a vast architectural exposition.
“……”
“Hey! Sir, I’ve never seen you before.”
“Are you a new friend of Wah Wah Wah? The Orange Zone welcomes your arrival!”
Before long, Lindsey was drawn by a greeting.
He turned his head and, just as when they entered Thousand Sails City, a guard statue greeted him.
Artists or singers need to reach the seventh stage to create life. However, these tangible sculptures have much lower requirements in certain aspects. A fifth-stage sculptor can create moving statues with movement capabilities, and a sixth-stage one can even endow with the ability to think.
to some extent.
Throughout the Orange Zone, there were no shortage of the presence of these stone statues.
Hearing this greeting, Wah Wah wah waved:
“Good morning, Number 221!”
“This is my current closest companion, his name is Lindsey.”
.”
“Of course, I remember every visitor, my responsibility, you to remember,, Miss Wah Wah Wah!”
Wah Wah Wah continued to lead the way northward in the Orange Zone.
Every street in the Orange Zone had a few guard statues responsible for security.
The humans roaming the streets were predominantly artists.
The sculptors and architects had transformed the entire district into a whimsical and bizarre area, making it a highly attractive choice for painters as well.
Beyond the Sculpture Pavilion and the Architecture Studio, the street is bustling with fashion and home design stores, as well as regular apartment-style residences, seamlessly integrated with essential amenities like a market.
Among the four districts Lindsay had visited, this one seemed to have the most vibrant atmosphere, second only to the Green Zone.
The trio headed north, traversing almost the entire Orange Zone until they reached a point where they could see the distant sea on the horizon. It was then that the young girl finally stopped.
"Wah Wah Wah, you're back!"
"Did you go out to the sea to collect materials for a commission? How did it go this time?"
Several stone statues greeted Wah Wah Wah with a warm welcome.
The girl enthusiastically replied, "It was a really interesting adventure!"
"When I have time, I'll tell you all about this story!"
Bidding farewell to the statues, the trio halted in front of a seaside cottage.
This street was right next to the coastline, with the back of the houses facing the undulating sea.
Looking into the distance, they could see ships occasionally appearing on the horizon, most of them sailing from west to east, heading towards the Thousand Sails City.
The Orange Zone's port was likely located in that direction.
Examining the cottage up close, they saw that it had a total of three floors, constructed mainly of brick and wood, topped with a conical red-tiled roof. Each floor had windows facing both the coast and the city, and on the ground was a carefully tended garden.
Wah Wah Wah walked up to the fence, reached out, and pushed a small stone lock, which automatically popped open.
The wooden gate also swung open.
Then, Wah Wah Wah stopped Lindsay in her tracks, her expression serious. "Lindsay, wait for me, okay?"
"This house hasn't been occupied for several days, so it might be a bit messy. You... just wait here for now!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Wah Wah Wah rushed into the house.
The stone lock on the fence automatically closed, and the house's front door emitted a loud 'bang' from within.
Immediately, sounds of tidying up, along with bumps and the girl's wails, echoed from the three-story cottage.
After a few more seconds, even the essence waves and the girl's recitation of poetry could be vaguely heard from inside, indicating the intensity of the 'battle' within.
"..."
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward for a moment.
Lindsay looked around, eventually settling on Remstar, who had accompanied her, as a conversation partner.
"Um, was Wah Wah Wah like this before?"
At this point, Remstar had already exited her performance state.
She stared at the house, her mouth wide open beneath her high-collared dress, even more surprised than Lindsay:
"Remstar... Remstar, she wasn't like this before!"
"In the theater, she rarely interacts with others. Only during performances does she radiate her unique brilliance..."
After replying, Remstar also became curious about Lindsay.
It wasn't just because of Lindsay's connection with Wah Wah Wah, but also because Remstar hadn't forgotten Lindsay's valiant combat performance the night before.
That was a warrior's stance rarely seen on stage.
"Mr. Lindsay, how did you and Remstar meet?"
Lindsay replied, "It was just a regular trip. We met on a ship..."
"..."
"Lindsay, I'm done tidying up. You can come in now."
Wah Wah Wah immediately interrupted their conversation.
Then, she directly opened the stone lock on the fence and came to the gate.
"Remstar..."
At this moment, Remstar, who was standing nearby, also spoke up.
She stood in her place, clutching her skirt, but couldn't seem to get the rest of her words out. Her nervousness was evident on her face.
"Sigh..."
Wah Wah Wah let out a sigh, but she still couldn't bear to be harsh with Remstar.
"You can come in too, but I have to tell you in advance, I'm not preparing dinner here!"
