Chapter 47: If you fail, you are a sinner
Following
Alberan was still as busy and lively as ever. The adventurers www.biquge.info the Fun Pavilion were either recruiting expedition members or selling their bounty gains, and no one noticed anything unusual about the giant bell tower that represented the symbol of Alberan in the very center of the city.
"Hey, human alertness is so poor that we don't feel the impending danger at all. An Lun sighed as he looked at the bustling street with a frown.
"Well... Brother is right. Starmark stood next to An Lun and nodded approvingly, his expression solemn, better than An Lun.
Hearing that Starmark agreed with him, An Lun shook his head slightly, took out a golden ticket of one thousand gold coins and handed it to Starmark, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go, my warrior, let's go and save these ignorant humans." ”
Xingji glanced at the golden ticket with slanted eyes, and the original solemnity immediately disappeared, he lowered his body, carefully took the golden ticket, and echoed with a flattering face: "Yes, Master Divine Craftsman." ”
For the word craftsman, An Lun was very useful, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, he stretched out his hand, and he didn't know when the cloak on his body was shocked, along with the fat body, and he shouted "Let's go!" And he strode forward.
Xingji naturally followed, and at the same time, he secretly said in his heart that his acting skills were good today, and he had earned a thousand gold coins at the beginning, which was definitely a good start. For this God of Wealth, Starmark's initial resentment has long been put aside, regardless of whether he can play a role or not? No, it should be said that he has already played the biggest role, that is, he is rich.
......
This was the first time Starmark had come to Albelan, and although he had already known about the bell tower that guarded Alberan, Starmark was still shocked when he actually stood on the front and looked up at the building.
This bell tower, covering an area of 200,000 square meters, is enough to catch up with the area of a giant demon fighting field, and at the same time the height of more than 500 meters, towering into the sky, the height of the entire Lune Kingdom is probably only Ji Fen Tower can be compared, a branch of the Xiu Fa Zi River is introduced here, the bell tower surrounds, so that the entire bell tower is like a building on the river water, only through the stone bridge on the four sides of the bell tower, can be approached. Although Xingji does not know much about architecture, he can also see the extraordinary nature of this bell tower, especially the river water is by no means uninvited, and must have its important effect.
"The bell tower is being repaired, please do not come close!"
When they were still a hundred meters away from the stone bridge, Starmark and An Lun were stopped by two soldiers wearing Lune's uniforms, and although they were literally polite, their tone was very tough, and they did not allow others to resist.
Starmark frowned, not because of the other party's tone, but from his information, although the bell tower is not open to the public, it is not strictly forbidden for others to approach, after all, it is the landmark of Alberan, so there will be many people who come to watch. At this moment, they were stopped by some distance from the bell tower, which shows that the condition inside the bell tower is not good, and the seemingly solid bell tower is probably already full of monsters inside, and a disaster may erupt at any time.
With An Lun here, Star Mark naturally doesn't have to negotiate with the other party, so not only can he play the role of An Lun, but at the same time, Star Mark himself is also idle, as for whether it is to install the identity of an assistant or the identity of an entourage, Star Mark doesn't care, as long as there is money to make.
An Lun was also extremely strong in this regard, and with a cold snort, the fat on his body shook again. A golden token had appeared, and he held it in his hand.
The two soldiers who stopped the two saw the golden token in An Lun's hand, and hurriedly retreated to both sides, bowed down and saluted: "My subordinates greet Master An Lun and General Starmark." ”
Starmark was stunned when he heard this, "General?" However, after thinking about it for a while, he was relieved, the old prime minister could not tell these guards his original identity, otherwise when he heard that he was a thief, would he dare to let himself in? And there would definitely be doubts inside.
An Lun waved his hand: "Let's go, take us over." ”
"Yes, please come with us, two adults. ”
The two soldiers led the two men across the stone bridge to one of the makeshift rooms outside the bell tower.
"Report, Master Anlun and General Starmark have arrived. With the announcement of the two soldiers, the door of the house quickly opened, and a tall man with a Chinese character face and a standard military appearance greeted him from the room.
"The head of the subordinate Demon Slaying Regiment, Ge Liege, greets the two adults!" The man bowed to the two, and the excitement in his eyes could not be concealed.
Looking at the other party's excited appearance, Xingji's heart sank, I am afraid that the situation in the bell tower is worse than he imagined, and the demon killing group, Xingji always feels like he has heard of it somewhere, but he is not interested in the army, and he can't remember what he has heard for a while.
An Lun also frowned, he could naturally see that the situation was not very good, and said in a deep voice with a slight bow towards the Ge Lie Pavilion: "Let's talk about it in the first room." ”
At this time, although An Lun was still the same immature child, but the aura exuded from his body gave people a sense of calmness, which made people feel that they could rely on it.
There were only three people who entered the room, and Ge Liege immediately slammed the door with his backhand, and without waiting for Starmark and An Lun to sit down, he spoke directly: "I don't know when the two adults will act." ”
Hearing Ge Liege's words, Xingji's heart became even heavier, how could the other party also be a regiment leader, at this time, it seemed so urgent, it could be seen that the matter was imminent, but he didn't open his mouth to respond, as a thief, he still had some psychological resistance to the people in the military. And with An Lun's negotiations, he was also idle.
When An Lun heard this, he pondered for a moment and said, "How many days can the bell tower last?"
Ge Liege said: "Recently, the monster **** is very intense, and it may break through the seal of the bell tower at any time, and several mages of Jifen Tower are currently strengthening the seal, but the situation is still not optimistic, it is estimated that it will take a week at most, if it is a conservative estimate, I am afraid that the monster will rush out in three days." ”
"Three days..."An Lun was silent, and Xingji also chuckled in his heart, but he didn't expect to be in a hurry. Although three days seems to have time, no one can guarantee how difficult the trip will be, and three days means that the operation must be successful, and there is no chance of a repeat failure.
"It's only been three days—" Anlun repeated again, then looked at the starmark. For some reason, when Starmark looked at An Lun, he found that his eyes were full of complicated emotions, and Starmark felt that the other party was faintly guilty, which seemed to be beyond his expectations.
"Let's go get ready and leave tomorrow. After saying that, An Lun turned around and left, without saying anything, and walked out of the room without even saying hello to the star mark.
Star Scar was slightly stunned, An Lun's behavior made him feel a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. Starmark thought, it is said that there are only three days, the sooner you act, the better, if you fail, you can prepare in time to deal with the monster's counterattack, but An Lun dragged it back for a day, and things are a little strange.
On this day, Starmark didn't see An Lun, and even at night, An Lun didn't return to his accommodation, and he didn't know where he had gone. However, Starmark is not worried, he believes that An Lun will appear when he leaves tomorrow. Although that guy looks a little unreliable, he is by no means the kind of irresponsible person, which can be seen from the fact that An Lun has been giving him money, and Xingji can feel that the other party gives him money not to crush him with money and show how proud he is, but to let himself at least cooperate more with him because he took the other party's money in the later cooperation.
Another night passed, and when Starmark came to the bell tower, An Lun's chubby figure was already waiting there, beside him, the Gregorian Pavilion he had seen yesterday, and several women in mage robes, while on the periphery, hundreds of soldiers were waiting with weapons in hand.
"How do I feel like this is sending us to the execution ground again?" Starmark came to Anlun's side and quipped.
An Lun glanced at the star mark and said in a deep voice, "Let's go." With that, he nodded to Gregory.
When Ge Liege saw An Lun's signal, he immediately shouted: "Open the door!" I wish the two adults a successful completion of the task and a triumphant return!" As Ge Liege's words fell, several mages beside him shot out at the same time, shooting out seven-colored lights, and a huge teleportation array appeared in front of the two Star Scars.
An Lun walked towards the teleportation array, and just as he was about to step in, Starmark's voice came from behind him, "Wait. ”
An Lun's foot, which was about to enter the teleportation array, was retracted in this sound of "wait", and he turned his head to look at the star mark, his expression was still the same as yesterday, but a little more hesitant.
And the others also looked at him in unison the moment Starmark spoke, and even Starmark already felt that he had been locked by the people present, it was by no means a kind of goodwill, but a kind of oppression, oppressing himself to quickly enter the teleportation array.
Starmark didn't care about this oppression, he looked at An Lun and said indifferently, "I wonder what will happen if we don't succeed in replacing the heart of the clock." ”
As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly became very solemn, and even the temperature suddenly dropped a lot, and it was an invisible murderous aura permeating.
An Lun opened his mouth, but it was not him who made the sound, but Ge Lie Pavilion on the side.
"Succeeded, you are the heroes of the people, but no one will remember. Fail, you will be destroyed along with the bell tower, and you will be remembered by the people as sinners who broke the seal of the bell tower!"
