Chapter 159: Painttube (Part 4)

The site sits on a vacant lot with a number of modern houses nearby, which should have been the residence of the staff. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The official protection of the ruins of Palo City can be seen from the queue of tourists at the entrance.

Obviously, there is a limit to the number of people who can enter the site in each batch, and in most cases it is also limited in time, and the advantage of this arrangement is that it can reduce the pressure on staff to monitor.

With such restrictions, so many people come even in the off-season, which shows that the attraction of the ruins of Palo City is not small.

Luo and Sambika stood side by side, and among so many travelers, the sense of presence was extremely weak, because the people around them were basically a couple, and the two of them stood together, like a couple.

Looking at the staff guarding the perimeter, the level of vigilance is very high, and this is only the periphery, let alone the inside.

"Well, there should be no drama during the day, maybe not even a chance to touch it. Luo thought silently.

The ruins of Palo City are one of the official cash cows, and it is normal for protection measures to be in place, on the one hand, for fear of damage to the ruins and buildings, after all, how many years old the building itself has been dilapidated.

On the other hand, it is also a protection against malicious thieves.

In the hunter world, the black market is very well developed, there are countless sellers and demanders, and all kinds of strange trading items are endless, such as the feces of a duke's pet dog a hundred years ago, all of which are wanted.

Where there is demand, there will be monetary transactions.

The ruins of Palo City retain the architectural style of the ancient era, which is a vague stone carving, and there are many collectors in the black market who want it, and the price offered is not low.

In general, as long as there are people in the black market who need something, even if it is something that can only be obtained by breaking the law or even working hard, a large number of people will fight for it.

The ruins are so heavily guarded, I'm afraid I'm going to have to come at night.

Luo and Sambika lined up honestly, and at this time, even if they sacrificed their hunter's license, they couldn't cut the line.

Time passed little by little, a group of travelers went in, another group of passengers came out, and they waited for two hours before it was Luo and Sambica's turn.

The ruins of Palo City only accept 300 visitors at a time, and after paying the entrance fee, the staff first explained to the passengers who wanted to enter a few strict regulations before letting people in one after another.

You can only stay inside for half an hour, which is one of the conditions.

Luo and Sambika followed the flow of people through the stone arch and into the ruins.

I saw the accompanying passengers, walking straight along the avenue that extended into the entrance, and they didn't bother to pay attention to the ruins and ruins of the nearby ruins full of age.

Once a city with a large area, Palo was ruined in the war, and then eroded over hundreds of years, leaving only a relatively intact area.

Most of the tourists who come here go for the statue of Eros in the center of the area, and a small number of people go to the castle lord's mansion.

Luo's target is Ferdin, a craftsman who was once so famous in this ancient city.

"There are a lot of places that have disappeared and hopefully Fordin's house is still there. ”

Law wandered around with Sambica, memorizing the wreckage of each building.

Uniformed security guards can be seen everywhere, in this case, it is impossible to touch the wreckage of the building, so I have no choice but to step on the point first.

With limited time, Luo walked quickly, and after a while, he had finished half of the area and then came to the place where the statue was.

It is a female statue with many fine marks on the surface, covered with silk tulle, holding a harp in her hand, smiling smartly, showing the love lingering in her eyes, which is extremely expressive.

Whether it is the statue or the harp that looks like a heart, it is not only expressive, but also exquisite in detail, which shows that the skill of the carver is very profound.

Along the way, on the remains of the collapsed building, you can vaguely see various reliefs on the walls, as well as stone carvings of craft ornaments as decorations.

Seeing this statue, I think that Fording is also a stone carver, which shows that stone carvings are prevalent in Palo City, but the name of the city of love is obscured.

"Sambica, do you want to walk around by yourself?" Rowe suggested, embarrassed to let Sambika accompany him on a brisk walk through the ruins.

"Am I alone?" said Sambica's eyes were calm.

"Uhh

Without further mention of the suggestion, the two left the statue, avoiding most of the travelers, and headed for the other side.

There are not many fragments of memory from Fordin, and I can see what the room is like, but along the way, the houses I see are all wreckage, and it is really not easy to tell where Fordin's address is.

And, in connection with the dark sonata, Ferding buries a scroll of a painting tube in a brick and then builds it next to the fireplace.

Law didn't see what was in the tube, but the vague feeling told him that the Dark Sonata might be in the tube.

Although it is not known where the exact location is, the fireplace can be reduced in scope.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Luo quickened his pace again.

Suddenly, a strange feeling like a treasure hunt appeared after a long absence, guiding Luo like a pointer.

Following that strange feeling, Law looked at the ruins of a building on the side of the road, which was no longer in shape, but there were still some broken stone pillars, and there was a half-broken fireplace in the house.

"Is this it..."

Luo raised his eyebrows, he believed in the treasure hunting ability of the white smoke font, and his heart was settled.

In this way, it is very likely that the Dark Sonata is near the wreckage.

"What's wrong?" Sambika saw Luo stop suddenly, and stared at one place with a puzzled look in his eyes.

"It's okay, it's almost time, let's go. ”

Luo retracted his gaze and saw that the security guards at the ruins had begun to evacuate the crowd and confirm the number of travelers.

As soon as half an hour came, Luo and Sambika left the ruins with the flow of people, returning to their rented lakeside cabin.

Now that the location has been confirmed, the next step is to wait until the evening to get started.

That night, Rowe took Sambika through the darkness and headed towards the ruins of Palo.

After arriving at the destination, the security outside the ruins was stricter than during the day, but I didn't know what the situation inside was.

Luo had to get what Fording had put into the brick wall anyway, avoid surveillance, use Sambica's mind to stun the guards on the periphery, and then use his own mind to break the barbed wire fence silently, and then restore the barbed wire to its original state after entering.

After confirming the location during the day, he headed straight for Ferdin's residence.

After a while, Luo and Sambika came to the wreckage of the house that they sensed during the day.

As he got closer, the feeling became more and more intense, which made Luo more sure that something was here.

Sambika watched quietly as Luo crouched in front of the decaying wall, doubtful in his heart, but did not ask.

"Found you. ”

Law stretched out his hand, wandered away from the brick wall, and then stopped in one place.

There was no need for any arguments, Luo was sure that the thing was here, and immediately activated his ability to separate the painting tube hidden inside, and then restored the brick wall to its original state.

"There's really something—" Sambika looked at the quaint painttube in Law's hand.

With the faint moonlight, Luo carefully looked at the painting tube in his hand, confirming that it was consistent with the appearance in Ferdin's memory fragment, and suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction, although it was relying on the treasure hunting function of the white smoke font...
