Roland knew immediately what he was talking about.

To be honest, Roland was a little speechless about the bad taste of the game development team, originally Roland thought it was just a very ordinary statue, after all, it was functional. But I really didn't expect that the image was not only very sassy, but also that the broken bowl had a strong meaning, giving people a strong sense of funny.

It is normal for players to have indestructible buildings and not be able to move.

But for gaming NPCs, it's a rather strange, even magical thing.

In their eyes, there is only one explanation for this kind of thing.

Miracles.

In fact, the statue of Roland was discovered by people near the royal city less than three days after it appeared, after all, the copper basin next to the statue looked shiny and shiny, very much like gold.

At first, there were quite a few people who tried to take the copper basin away. As a result, even if they tried their best, they couldn't get the copper basin off the ground.

They tried to dig up the land near the sand statue, and found that the land about ten meters near the sand statue could be restored no matter how much they dug it, and they couldn't interfere with it with magic.

This situation attracted the attention of many nobles and spellcasters, who checked a lot of books and materials, and found that there were no deeds or legends of the sand sculpture man.

Until one day, they noticed that a son of gold had thrown a gold coin into the sand statue, and the coin disappeared in a flash.

They knew that the statue must have done something.

Then they stopped the son of gold, and put an important message out of his mouth with food and beauty.

Simply throwing a gold coin into that copper bowl grants a peculiar ability that increases the caster's mana regeneration rate, as well as ...... Increases certain psychic resistance.

At first they didn't believe it.

But many of the nobles are idle and bored, and there are quite a few spellcasters among them.

Then a good deed man tried to throw a gold coin into it.

Outcome...... He really has one more ability, and the speed of mana recovery has indeed increased, and as for mental resistance, they are not in a position to test it for the time being.

After that, the nobles of the entire royal city were boiling, and a lot of people threw gold coins into it.

In the end, it was discovered that only those who could cast spells could get this ability.

Later, led by the Magic Federation, the nobles set up walls and checkpoints near the sand sculptures, and only those they 'identified' were allowed to enter the sand sculptures.

They call this sand sculpture the ritual of the 'Goddess of Magic'.

Bard went on to tell Roland about the recent situation in the royal city.

Roland was a little surprised after hearing this: no wonder there was a time when the gold coins came quickly, and then the increase rate slowed down significantly. "Looks like you really know something." Bud kept paying attention to his expression, and when he saw his strange expression, he knew that this matter was definitely directly related to him: "Can you tell me about it?" “

Roland shook his head helplessly: "I don't know where to start." “

Bard raised his eyebrows slightly, and he could see that Roland really didn't seem to want to say anything.

After thinking about it, he said, "Then let's change the subject." Now that a lot of the Children of Gold have gathered here, you seem to want to use this as a base camp? “

Roland was a little surprised: "Why do you think so?" ”

"I can't help but think so." Bud sighed lightly, "What will happen to John's family in the future?" ”

"Not how?" Roland shook his head: "They are still the de facto masters of the city, but orders may not be able to reach the grassroots level. ”

Grass roots? Bud was intrigued by the word.

Because of the 'knowledge of the language', the word is translated quite well, and you can understand the meaning of the word just by listening to it.

Bard kept the word in his heart. Then he said, "Anyway, I personally hope that you will stop hurting John's family, and this situation is good now." They have a chance to regain power, and you can get enough of it. If you go any further, the balance will collapse. ”

Roland nodded slightly.

The two then chatted for a while, and then Bud excused himself for a trip.

He came to John's house in a carriage.

The gates of the castle were still being repaired, and the castle was deserted, and although there were still enough guards and servants, it was clear that they were not in good spirits.

Bard sighed inwardly, and soon met his old friend, John Jr.

The hot drinks on the table were smoking, and little John looked much haggard with a stubble on his face, no longer in high spirits.

"I haven't seen you in over three months, John." Bard's tone was rather calm.

Little John smiled, mixed with some sadness: "It's been a long time." In three months, the world changed, right? "I'm pretty sad about old John." Bud said sincerely, "If there's anything you need me to help with, please feel free to say it, as long as I can." “

Little John looked up suddenly, his face gloomy and his eyes with a hint of madness: "What if I say that I want all the sons of gold to die?" You can do it! “

Like a real murderous aura, Bard felt a little tingling in his skin, and he frowned slightly and said, "Impossible, I can't do it." ”

"But you Bard can do it." Little John looked straight into Bud's eyes: "As long as you unite with the other three families, it is very simple to kill the Golden Children of Delbon City and press them back to Level Zero, you should know very well that although the Children of Gold do not die, they will lose their strength after death, as long as they are enough times, they will become at the same level as ordinary people." ”

Bard closed his eyes slightly: "This information was spread by several noble families in our royal city. Of course we do. ”

"If they become like ordinary people, I have enough confidence to trap them in the temple of life and not be able to get out." Little John's voice burst out of his throat like a demon's whisper: "I know you won't help me at will, but if you can do it, I'm willing to give you two-thirds of the territory around Delbon, including twenty-seven towns, thirty-eight villages, and four mines." ”

Hearing this condition, even a person like Bud, who was born with a golden key, was taken aback: "Are you crazy? Without these things, half of your John's family would be ruined. ”

Little John slammed the table, and with a thud, all the utensils jumped and clanged, and a lot of liquid spilled onto the table. Little John's cheeks tightened, his eyes widened, and his pupils were bloodshot: "Can it be better than the life that is almost under house arrest now?" Without a third of the territory, our family would have had a hard time at best, but without freedom, everything would be over. ”

Bard was silent for a moment, then said, "The conditions make me very excited. “

Little John's face showed joy: "You agreed?" "A sand sculpture appeared outside the royal city." Bud said lightly: "It's amazing, it can't be destroyed, it can't be moved, throw a gold coin to it, and you can also learn a special ability." “

John was a little curious: "It sounds amazing, but what does it have to do with what we're talking about. “

Bard looked at him, his face was neither happy nor angry, calm as well water without waves: "That sand sculpture looks exactly like Roland." ”

Little John's eyes shrank suddenly.
