Section IV Time is of the essence

"Rong Ze has not heard from him for two weeks, is it ...... Already, I shouldn't have let him go! "Hellebusch told Junzer to keep in touch with him at all times, and if he didn't contact him for a week, it was assumed that something had happened to him.

It's been more than two weeks since Rong Ze went to find the 'proposer', and it seems that Rong Ze has ......

"Father." Rong Lu came in through the door.

"How."

"It's been a long time since I've seen Brother Rong Ze, and there are still a lot of things he needs to solve here, do you know where he went?"

"He went out to help me with some things, and you can take over his work in the future, and from now on, he announced to the outside world, 'Nine Circles has suspended all tourists who come to Nine Circles for sightseeing because of the cracks in the sky wall caused by the earthquake under the sea.'

At the same time, you should make our people pay attention to the fact that if outsiders, especially those from the Central Circle or the Hunters' Association, apply to enter the Nine Circles, no matter which circle they are, they will be allowed to go to the 'Reception Circle' first, and they will not be allowed to go to the other Circles without my orders.

And recently, you asked Rong Ni to lead a medical team to conduct a physical examination of all the people who are now in the Nine Circles. ”

"Father, is that what happened?"

"Not yet, but we need to prevent it from happening. You can do it. ”

"Yes." Rong Lu just went out, turned around and came back.

"Father, there's one thing I forgot to tell you."

"Well, what?"

"The report on the ocean situation that I asked me to monitor before Brother Rong left has come out. In the direction of the Fourth Civilian Zone, there were indeed unusual fluctuations, and judging by the scale, the Fourth Civilian Zone was almost destroyed.

At the same time, there are a lot of mutated creatures in the ocean over there that are moving towards us, but because of our 'sonar system', we haven't been attacked yet. ”

"I see. Continue to monitor, also, what is happening in the ocean outside the sky wall, do not let the general population know, do not cause unnecessary panic. ”

"Yes."

After three days:

"What? Did you see it with your own eyes? Hlebsch asked a man with a broken arm and bandages.

"Yes. Originally, I also passed out, but they thought I was also dead, so they carelessly left, because it was raining, so I regained consciousness, and finally came back. The man said.

"Didn't Rong Ze go directly to the proposer? How did you come across an ambush? ”

"It's true that Rong Ze only brought ten of us. In the past, it was the proposer or executor who took the initiative to find us, and we would not take the initiative to find them, so we could only go to the headquarters of the Hunter Guild to inquire about the news first.

After asking the hunters in the headquarters, I learned that Charlotte, who is in charge of our side. Baker, because of something, went to the fourth protective circle. And the other 'proposers' are also in other protective circles. Considering the distance, Rong Ze decided to let the ten of us stay at the headquarters of the Hunter Association first.

On the same day, an A-class hunter who seemed to be a manager met us, and I heard Rong Ze seem to call him 'Jie... What's that's, it's not, it's 'pulled... I didn't hear it clearly, but after he talked to Rong Ze, Rong Ze let us follow the man.

We followed that person and his subordinates out of the circle of the association's headquarters, and listened to the conversation between Rong Ze and him, as if we were going to go to the first protection circle overnight, and there was a proposer there.

But unexpectedly, after entering the border, that man and his men suddenly attacked us, we were defenseless, and Rong Ze was also shot by that person......"

"Is that guy's name 'Gerald'?" Hlebosch asked.

"Yes, that's the name. Do you know him? ”

"Heroy. Seton! I know everything, you go down and recuperate, don't tell anyone about this. ”

"Yes. That's right, here's for you. I'm sorry I can only bring this back ......" The man took a small pocket from his bosom and took out a necklace with a pendant from it.

"It's ...... Rongze's. Hlebusch opened the pendant, and inside was a picture of Rong Ze and his wife and children......

"Circle master, you mourn." The man saluted Hlebsch and left the room.

"Father? What's wrong with you? At this time, Rong Lu came in through the door.

"The direction of the world has changed now......"

"Father......" Rong Lu felt that his father seemed to be a lot older.

"Rong Lu, you go and call the rest of the family over later, I have something to tell you."

"The person who went out just now is Brother Rong Ze's cronies, is something happening to Brother Rong Ze?" Rong Lu asked.

"I'll explain it to you later."

"I'll go inform the others right now."

Ninth Protective Circle, Reception Circle:

Time is really pressing, Li Yue just told herself that there must be a proposer to recover the key to the sky wall in the central circle, and the proposer will be in the fifth circle, if it weren't for Liyue's reminder, it would be really troublesome to deal with.

First let his subordinates block the proposer on the grounds that the owner of the fifth circle is unwell, and come to the ninth circle to find the key, and I don't know how long the five circles can last.

Because I have only been to this reception circle before, I can only go here this time, and then go to find the place where the Lord of the Nine Circles is.

I was able to come here directly because Liyue had brought herself here once before.

The man in the cloak took away the key to open the door of time, which he had exchanged for from Miss Red Moon.

The sky wall of the Nine Circles is now night, and according to the information that Li Yue gave to herself, if the Lord of the Five Circles gave something to the Lord of the Nine Circles, then the Lord of the Nine Circles should put the things in a hidden place, like his own office, or at home.

Taking advantage of the cover of the night, the man in the cloak found the office of the Lord of the Nine Circles and quietly sneaked in. At this time, the voices of many people came from a room......

The man in the cloak came to the room above the room, which should be the place where the Lord of the Nine Circles usually worked, and there were many voices from the bottom of this room.

The man in the cloak crouched on the ground, listening carefully to the voices coming from below.

It seems that the Lord of the Nine Circles and his family members are having a family meeting......

Feeling that there was no useful information, the man in the cloak began to search the house for the key that the Lord of the Five Circles had placed here.

I asked Galu before I came. He didn't know what Gijiefu's 'key' looked like, but he said that when the old five circle master was still alive, he saw the old five circle master very precious a very delicate metal box, once curious, after opening it, he found that there was only one metal ball inside.

"This ...... Will it be the key? The cloaked man found a metal box in the dark compartment of the table, which he easily opened, and there was a metal ball inside. It seems that the box should have been opened by the Lord of the Nine Circles, perhaps because he was in a hurry to have a meeting, so he forgot to lock the box.

Let's take this back five times first, no, let's go to Liyue first to make sure if this is the key......

Hearing that the room below seemed to be over, the cloaked man hurriedly opened the door beside him and walked in......

After explaining what had happened next, Hlebroch returned to his office. But as soon as he sat down, he found that the secret compartment of the table had been opened, and the brain keys of the four walls outside the central circle owned by the fifth circle had been stolen by the owner of the five circles!

"Someone's coming!"
