Chapter 18 returns to the upper district

It's like a world away.

Standing in the middle of the street, watching the crowds of people, Amy couldn't help but lose her mind slightly—how long had it been since she had been in the middle of the upper-floor city......? Or is it two months, or is it longer? But whether it is a month or two months, the time is not too far apart, and it stands to reason that just a few months will not cause a fault in people's memories, but the facts in front of him are true, and he does feel strange and alienated from the prosperity of the upper district.

Is it homesickness?

This thought only turned in his mind, and the boy vetoed it.

He has no affection for the upper class, not only does he not have a few familiar friends, but even a handful of people he knows, how can he feel homesick in such a situation.

So why?

In fact, if you think about it carefully, his memory of the upper area is really pitiful, affected by a serious illness a few years ago, his childhood memories basically only left a faint impression, and the college life in recent years has been rooted in the library for many years because of the exclusion of other glorious people and his own unique personality.

After all, Yulia is a hard guy to put at ease.

Amy couldn't help but smile knowingly when he thought of his sister, but a rare sincere smile quickly faded from his face, he pulled the brim of his high hat, his eyes wandered around the surging crowd, and only after making sure that there were no suspicious people around him did he breathe a long sigh of relief:

"Now is not the time to think about these things, I really shouldn't be distracted. ”

The doubts in his heart have not completely dissipated, but the young Glory is not going to waste precious time in a daze - the passage from the lower to the upper is firmly controlled by the council, and there must be the eyes and ears of the various Glory families, if they don't want to be entangled by those annoying spies, maybe they will be assassinated again, or they should rush to the Supreme Tower before their intelligence system turns around, so as not to cause trouble.

Although the security conditions in the upper districts are not the same as those in the lower districts, it is not necessary to kill a person personally, hire pharmacists to poison the food, create chaos and then plant crimes, and so on.

The boy asked himself if he was not a smart person, and he didn't bother to waste his brain energy to deal with those experts who played conspiracies all day long, instead of waiting here for those who had the intention to deal with him to be properly organized, it was better to take advantage of the favorable opportunity when the information about him had not yet been conveyed and the forces of all parties had not yet been mobilized, and rushed to the Supreme Tower as quickly as possible, and then left this place of right and wrong with the friendship of the Order.

I believe that the guy who dares to rebel against the scales of the Church does not exist in the upper district.

Of course, in the meantime, you can also go and meet Yulia.

- I don't know if she's used to it.

The thought of her weak sister to live alone in the Order, Amy's heart ached, it was completely helpless to go to the lower district alone, and the overt and covert aggression of many parties made it difficult for the two of them to maintain a normal life in their hometown, at this time it seemed to be a good choice to escape into the lower district to start a new life, but the teenager who had heard about the chaos and security in the lower district did not dare to take his frail sister to the border far away from the light of order before the foundation was stable.

That's right, a frontier away from the light of order.

The people of the upper district call the lower district as such, and ...... Judging from the experience of the young Glory Man in the lower districts during this time, in a sense, this statement really cannot be contradictory-the law and order may be fine during the day, but it is shrouded in a thick and substantial cloud all year round, and at night when the power of order is slightly weaker, it will be invaded by fog, becoming a marginal area outside the law.

On the other hand, in the upper area, the clear sky, the starry night, and the ever-bright and noisy life, even if it is conspiracy and killing, it is often done through the staggering of plots, and everything is hidden under the cloak of order, which seems so orderly and elegant.

Even a teenager who hates stabbing people in the back has to admit that life in the upper district is completely different from that in the lower district - at least the former you can live a very nourishing life as long as you don't provoke those dignitaries, while the latter even if you keep to yourself, you may die under the butcher's knife of the murderer at any point.

But there's no going back.

Amy sighed and looked at the tower in the center that was hidden in the mist.

In the central area, there are three landmarks that can be seen at a glance: the Municipal Building, which symbolizes the highest authority of Hemtica, the Temple of Hephaestus, which is dedicated to the fire, and the ...... The Tower of the High where the Order is located.

It's also interesting to say, although the supreme tower of the Order is named the supreme, but it is actually the most people-friendly of the three landmark buildings, and the first three floors can only be freely visited if they have the status of citizens, unlike the Temple of Hephaestus, which requires layers of identity checks, even if it is a glorious descendant with the blood of the ancestral order in his body, it is not easy to set foot in it.

At least the teenager had never visited the temple of Hephaestus.

- though I didn't have the opportunity to visit the Tower of the High before this.

Thinking so, he had already come to the bottom of the tower, and without looking up at the unknowable spire above the clouds, he walked straight into the living room on the first floor, and showed his citizen cards to the two sword-wielding knights on duty in silver and white armor on the side, and walked quickly to the guidance platform, nodded slightly to the dignified nun, and said in a solemn tone: "May God have mercy." ”

"May the Lord have mercy on the world," said the young and beautiful nun with her hand to her breast, and then smiled back, "Is there anything I can do for you?" ”

"I'm looking for Bishop Franks. The young Glory One said directly.

"Do you have an appointment?" Miss Nun glanced at him curiously, she really couldn't think of what this young man who was still a little green between her eyebrows could do to Master Franks, "If so, I can help you inform the Bishop." ”

"I'm sorry, I don't have an appointment here. Amy spread her hands, "But let me tell you that I have something very important to discuss with Mr. Franks—as for my name, my name is Amy, and Amy Ulysses, as you can see, is the Honorable One." ”

"No ......" Miss Nun wanted to say was forced to choke her mouth, although the Order showed no concern for the superior status of the Honorable, but Miss Sister was a member of the ordinary citizens of the upper district of Hemtika before becoming a nun of the Order, and she still had a natural awe of the actual ruler of the city where she lived and lived, "Please wait a moment, I will report it now." ”

"I'm tired. ”

Amy watched the nun leave, turned around and sat down - the Order is a religious group that serves the gods, this god has no secular name, in the Order is either called God, or called Lord, and some people even call Him directly as omniscient and omnipotent, He is more like a concept than a real god in myths and legends, more like a personification of the Light of Order.

And the Bishop of Franks, whom he was looking for, was one of the Order's advisers in Helmtika.

As for the management system of the order, he didn't know much about it, only that the system of force represented by the sword-bearer and the management system represented by the clergy actually belonged to two separate departments, and the position of bishop had a fairly high voice in the clergy system.

At least, as far as the boy knew, except for the mysterious Patriarch, the twelve bishops of the Supreme Tower were at the top of the pyramid of power, and all the things in the tower were in charge of the bishops without the patriarch asking, and the only thing they had no right to mobilize was the legendary Great Sword Bearer who had terrible power over the Glory, which was the ultimate force that obeyed the Patriarch alone.

As long as there is a strong man of this level to make a move, he can probably directly level the lower area.

The young Glory Man was not too nervous, he was not very familiar with Franks, but he was no stranger to him, and Yulia had been entrusted to the old man for his initiation, and he had heard—only that he had never asked the person concerned about it—that the oldest and most respected old man of the Twelve Bishops seemed to be quite close friends with his mysteriously missing parents.

As a junior, of course he is embarrassed to be cheeky and shy to climb the relationship.

And...... After experiencing so many things during this time, the teenager has clearly realized this fact - the friendship between parents is the friendship of parents after all...... To live in this world, you really have to rely on yourself.

"—Hello, Mr. Ulysses. "After about a quarter of an hour, Miss Sister brought the result, and from her non-panting and sweating appearance, it is not difficult to judge that the Supreme Tower must have some kind of mechanically powered driving device, otherwise it will run from one floor to dozens of floors and then run down, not to mention that she is such a weak woman, even a rough man with five big and three thick will have to run away with half her life," Bishop Franks agreed to your request for a meeting, but please make an appointment as soon as possible, at ten o'clock, Councillor Jonathan and Lord Bishop still have an appointment. ”

"Less than half an hour?" Amy glanced at the pendulum clock on the wall and made a gesture of please, "I see, please lead the way, ma'am." ”

For this meeting that will determine his future fate, the young Glory Man is somewhat impatient.
