The dark clouds in the sky added a layer of gloom to Walit's heart, Walit didn't know what trouble they had caused in Twilight, and he didn't care about that, but he was worried about this town, this dark cloud was too conspicuous, so he had a bad premonition, so he planned to take Hedong to the ancient city of Tanigawa as soon as possible, although this might be a little sorry for Twilight, but he didn't want the peaceful life of this ordinary town to be broken because of this.

Walit lived in the town for twenty years, he watched a fruit tree in front of the house grow from a small sapling to a fruitful tree, he watched the naughty boy who planted the tree grow into a child of his own, he watched the changes in the town, and the twenty years flowed in front of him like a stream, leaving him with countless memories. The townsfolk he met along the way greeted him warmly, and the warm smiles on their faces strengthened Walit's idea to protect this village, which was his home and home!

However, Walit hadn't traveled far for many years, and he still had a lot to attend to before leaving town, such as the dinner invitation he had just received, and he was going to leave the tavern for the time being, and he didn't know how long it would take to get back, and the tavern would not be left unattended for too long.

If Flammy and Noland knew that they were living in a tavern in a small mountain town, they would laugh at themselves, and Flammy would have looked at him with disdain and said, "Something that doesn't make a living." And Noland will definitely knock himself unconscious with one punch and then drag himself around the world with Flammy.

Thinking of this, Walit couldn't help laughing, but laughing and laughing A bitterness came to his heart, and he couldn't help but let a few turbid tears cross his face, Walit hurriedly wiped them away, and the day Vlamie and Norland left, it was also like this, dark clouds were overhead, and there was no daylight......

That pendant awakened memories that had been buried deep in his mind for so many years, so he would definitely help the Twilight family, because that was Flammy's last request, and Flammy never missed it, except for that time......

Of course, even if he didn't have Flammy's instructions, he would definitely help them, after all, Twilight Rain was the teacher's daughter, his little sister, how could he watch them get into trouble and not help.

This mountain town is not big, even if it takes half a day to walk around the whole town, it didn't take long for Walit to reach the destination of this trip, it is a house with a small yard, although the house is not big, and there is no luxurious decoration, but those simple lines made of ordinary stone carving give people a sense of chic, this house was designed by Walit, in the second year after Shigego was born, his parents made some money in the capital, they returned to the town and told Walit that they wanted to build a house in their hometown, so Walit helped them design the house, and on the day the house was completed, many people came to watchPeople marveled at Walit's skill and envied the good fortune of the homeowner couple, after which people from the town often came to him to help design the house, which was one of the reasons why he was respected in the town.

The courtyard was enclosed by a low stone wall made of small round stones, Walit was standing outside the wall and was about to go in, his hand was already on the wooden door of the stone wall, he even saw Shigego sitting on the threshold of the inner room and playing with his fingers, at this time he felt something abnormal, first the wooden door he was pressing was shaking gently, and then the ground under his feet was shaking, some slightly smaller round stones rolled down from the stone wall, the shaking lasted for two or three seconds and then stopped, there were many stones on the ground around the low stone wall, and the world seemed to be calm, but Walit's heart was in his throat, and no one knew the earth better than himHe felt the tremendous power surging in the ground beneath his feet.

The brief lull didn't even last for three seconds, the ground beneath his feet seemed to come to life, as if he was about to turn over, and the whole world was plunged into violent turmoil, a crack stretched from afar, tearing the road in half, and some slightly fragile buildings had begun to disintegrate.

At the same time as the world shook violently, the dust and rubble rolled over the town like a tsunami, engulfing the place in an instant, before the view was obscured by the dust, Walit saw Shigego standing helplessly in front of the house, at the same time the eaves of the eaves above his head were cracked by the earthquake, and stones of various sizes were falling from it, at this moment, for the first time in twenty years, Walitt asked for help like a magic he had deliberately forgotten, twenty years later, the magic once again obeyed his call, as if instinct, he stretched out his hands forward, and in the dust, he looked like he was holding something。

Eventually, the shaking of the earth had subsided, this time it was truly subsided, and Walit could feel that the earthquake was over, and the dust in the air was slowly falling, and his vision was a little wider. Walit was still standing in place, a bottomless crack cut the road outside the hut and stopped behind him as if it had hit an invisible wall, and in front of him, Shigego still stood stunned, as if he was frightened, two huge stone walls appeared in the thinning dust, these two stone arms stretched out from the ground in the courtyard, one reached Jugo's head, the huge palm protected him underneath, and the other stone arm held the house so that it did not collapse in the earthquake like other buildings, but it pressed through the walls of the second floor because of the force that pushed too hard to support the house。

Walit lunged to Jugo, and the boy stared blankly ahead, as if he had lost his soul. Walit half-crouched down to keep his eyes level with his, then grabbed the boy's arms, "What about your parents?"

Shigego was finally pulled back to reality as he watched Walit burst into tears, mingling with the faint cries coming from the ruins around him. Several of the houses connected here have collapsed, and those that have not collapsed have become horrible to see.

Walit lowered his head and shook him vigorously, the boy was stunned for a moment, stopped crying, and looked at him with some fear, Walitt's expression was serious, he stared at the boy's brown eyes, "Hey, don't cry anymore, you're a boy!"

Jugo half-bowed his head, looked at Walit cautiously, and let out an "um" sound, his voice still a little choked.

Wallia nodded, "Very well, tell me, where did your parents go?"

"No... Know... They went out and haven't come back yet. The boy's voice was choppy.

Walitt frowned, he was really a little worried if he really left this kid here alone, "You go with me first, and I'll take you to your parents later." ”

The boy nodded, and Walit touched his head in satisfaction, "Follow me." ”

There were several houses around Shigego's house that collapsed, some ran out, some were buried under the rubble, not far away a little fat man was standing on the rubble and crying, Walit knew this boy, he was Shigego's neighbor, his house collapsed in the earthquake, only he and his father escaped, and his father was digging on the collapsed house like crazy at this time, Walit ran over and hugged the man in his madness hard, Walit's thick arms were tightly framed around him like an iron hoop, this man was called Ulu, he was very strong, but he could only kick and beat randomly, but he couldn't break free from Walit's shackles at all, and finally he calmed downWalit let go of his arm and let go of him.

Rushing in such a situation could not solve any problems, and Ulu almost turned up the nails of both hands in the process of digging indiscriminately. After he calmed down, Walit began to help him rescue his family, fortunately, the houses here are not very high, and there is no particularly heavy part of the building materials, Walit did not take much effort to find a survivor, they dug up the rubble above the survivor's head, it was Ulu's wife, he saw her eyes were red, digging harder, but after the woman exposed her head and chest, Walit stopped him from digging further, after exposing her chest, he could already ensure that the woman could live, and there were many people waiting for them to rescue, and the people who ran out of the surrounding area also relied on the gourd to draw a scoop, and began to rescue as many buried people as possible。

Seeing that he was no longer needed for his help, Walit left Shigego and the little fat man together, and asked Uru to help take care of them, and let Shigego wait here for his parents to come back.

The dust that had been pouring in just now was unusual, and Walit had a bad feeling that he needed to go higher to find out what was going on, and the town's clock tower seemed to be a good choice.

The bell tower was not far from here, it was another proud building designed by Walitt, only a few hundred meters away, it had been heavily tilted in the earthquake just now, but it had not collapsed either, the gate of the bell tower had been damaged, and he climbed up the outer wall of the bell tower with the agility of a monkey.

Standing on top of the sloping bell tower, Walit saw a devastated town, more than two-thirds of the houses had collapsed in the earthquake, thick black smoke rose in many places, the surviving townspeople lined up to deliver water from the wells to put out the fire, others were busy digging their families, the cries of women and children were rising and falling in the ruins, the earthquake had completely destroyed the town, and it was unknown how long it would take to restore the town.

However, this was not enough, and the closer edge of the town was still covered by thick dust, and Walit could not see what was going on there, he needed to go higher than the flying dust.

Although the bell tower was tilted, the top was more than ten meters above the ground, Walit stood on the top of the building and took a step outward, without any hesitation, he did not fall to the ground, a step made of gravel was placed at his feet, Walit acted as calmly as if he was climbing the stairs of his own tavern, every time he took a step ahead, there would be gravel rising from the ruins and forming a solid step under his feet, sending him to a higher place, after countless stone steps, Walit finally saw the image that shocked him, the mountains around the town were shattered, and a new peak appeared on the only mountain road in and out of the town。

Aware of the gravity of the situation, Walit lost the only connection with the outside world, and the town was cut off, having just experienced a catastrophe that would surely plunge into chaos if the townspeople found out that they were left alone again.

The townsfolk must be organized before the town descends into chaos, and Walit decides to go to the mayor's house first to see if the town's radio will work. He sped down the steps, and suddenly he stepped into the air and fell off the steps, and in the nick of time, Walit grabbed the next stone step, which was supposed to catch him at his feet for some reason split apart and disintegrated in mid-air. Walit climbed the edge of the next stone staircase with both hands, but the stone staircase he was holding on to exploded again without warning, and Walit fell from mid-air without any suspense.

His body smashed a deep pit into the ground, and the whole person sank deep into the rubble and broken bricks.

Three broken ribs and some spine seemed to be misaligned, such an injury was not very serious for him, but it took some time to recover, Walit lay at the bottom of the pit to check his injury while sorting out what he had just seen.

The stone steps were not blown apart by themselves, but shattered, and the man was hiding between two broken walls, and Walit spotted the sneak attacker as he fell, and Walit also saw the dark red trench coat he was wearing with the "flaming sword" tattooed on it.

Walit realized that this was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster, and that the earthquake had been artificially created to turn the mountain town into a cage, he was still one step slower, and the town was already in a vortex of trouble.
