Chapter 865 Shadow of the Peace Tower
If it was just a strictly guarded entrance, Angel would not be discovered even if he used all his strength to open the boundless silence.
But Angel noticed that there was an energy membrane at this entrance. As long as a living creature entered, the energy membrane would fluctuate.
"Let's not talk about the energy membrane for now, there are actually extraordinary guards?" Angel looked at the two mermaids behind the door, and his eyes flashed with surprise.
He was hiding in the shadow of a room in the corner at this time. He patted Brulee: "What is going on inside? Why are even extraordinary people sent out as guards?"
Brulee: "The construction of the waterless area was actually done by some extraordinary people in Fan Continent. Because of the value of mermaid shells, many wizard organizations and wizard families have set up points here, just to buy mermaid shells at a low price. Therefore, there are many extraordinary people gathering in the waterless area, which can basically be regarded as a miniature wizard market."
In terms of wizards' pursuit of interests, mermaid shells do have this value.
In any wizard market, the guarding work is performed by extraordinary people. Thinking about it this way, it seems to make sense.
But because it was a supernatural person guarding the place, he couldn't use ordinary methods to get in.
"Is this your master's perfect plan? He didn't even give me a certificate?" Angel couldn't help but complain.
But Bree looked as if it was a matter of course: "When the master brought me here before, he used the plane alley to go directly to the waterless area. The certificate outside was not needed at all."
Angel guessed that Bree's answer would be like this. He ignored Bree's chattering and observed the entrance to the waterless area, thinking about how to enter.
Or, just break in directly? Then open the gravity veins and walk faster. Even if the guards find him, they can't catch up with his speed... Angel thought to himself and felt that this plan was quite feasible.
However, just when Angel made up his mind to break in, he saw a group of mermaids coming on the main road, and the one in the front was a fat black-tailed mermaid with a proud attitude.
Two black whiskers like catfish swayed back and forth, which seemed to be waving in the water. Because his cheeks were too fat, his eyes were narrowed into a slit, and he was wearing golden ornaments all over his body, which made him look a bit vulgar and deliberately showed off his wealth.
The reason why Angel noticed him was because he had a voucher in his hand.
Looking at the voucher, Angel narrowed his eyes slightly.
After a while, Angel swaggered into the waterless area with the voucher. However, his appearance at this time was transformed into the appearance of the merman just now through the illusion.
The merman himself was now immersed in a fantasy full of beauty outside, unable to extricate himself.
Angel himself would not stay in Lloyds for too long, and he would leave after getting something. Therefore, he decided to "borrow" a voucher without anyone noticing, and return the voucher when he left.
As for the merman, it was not a loss either. The beauty was so beautiful that it could make him dizzy with spring; especially the beauty constructed by the nightmare illusion technique, the simple touch could make him excited.
I give you a wonderful spring dream, and the price is to borrow the voucher for a few hours. What a reasonable deal. Angel thought quite complacently.
Waterless Zone. This place is more like a land city, with crisscrossing buildings and brilliant and bright colors; if it weren't for the streets full of corals and shells, it would be impossible to imagine that this is thousands of meters below the sea.
The races in the Waterless Zone are also as Brulee said, a complete hodgepodge, with many humans and non-marine humanoids, and the mermaids here also have obvious aristocratic temperament. Because only mermaid nobles will deliberately restrain and prohibit eating humans.
Since Angel found a shadow, changed his appearance, and then walked out as a human.
Although there are many humans here, just in case, Angel still turned on the boundless silence to weaken his presence. Then he asked Brulee: "Where is the Ash Time Caravan you mentioned?"
"Go to the Abyss Zone first."
"Abyss Zone? Where is it?"
Brulee pointed to the center of the Waterless Zone, where there is a white tower built like a sky garden, which is the landmark of the entire Waterless Zone, "The Abyss Zone is in the shadow of the Peace Tower."
The Peace Tower, the symbol of the Waterless Zone, is a tower built by the Rogue Mermaid Royal Family, symbolizing the peace and unity of all races. But it is ironic that many races have not yet achieved true peace among their own races, let alone across races.
Especially humans, almost every human who sees the Peace Tower will use a sneering attitude to explain the empty "peace dream" to the people around them.
What is even more ironic is that in the shadow of the Peace Tower, there is the Abyss, the largest and most chaotic dark trading area in the entire Lloyds. In the Abyss, power is worshipped as the supreme, and death, fear, and sin are rampant in this area.
Therefore, many residents living in the waterless area have another nickname for the Abyss: the Sin Tower.
The Sin Tower is the "real" one, and the Peace Tower is just whitewashing the peace.
When Angell stepped into the Abyss, he immediately felt the change in the atmosphere. Not to mention the stronger bloody smell, the blatant killing and robbery not far away made Angell's eyes gradually darken.
That was a junior apprentice, who seemed to be at the peak of the first level. He was holding a bag made of fish skin in his hand and ran hurriedly out of the abyss. But when he was still a few steps away from the light, a burly man in a green vest fell from the sky and kicked him back to the abyss.
"Boy, you want to leave the Tower of Sin without paying something, you are too naive." The burly man clenched his fist and walked towards the apprentice step by step.
"Here... here you go." Due to the difference in strength, the apprentice shivered and handed the bag to the burly man.
"You are quite sensible." The burly man took the bag and checked it, but did not leave, but stepped closer to the apprentice step by step.
"I can guarantee that you will leave the Tower of Sin, but this little thing is not enough." The burly man smiled bloodthirstily.
After a scream, the apprentice's head was thrown out of the Tower of Sin, but his body was thrown into the trash by the burly man. When others looked over, he said in a frivolous tone: "Look, I did what I said. There is always a part of his body that left the Tower of Sin, isn't it?"
The scene in front of him is just a daily routine in the Abyss District. No one cared about the dead apprentice, and no one condemned the burly man. Many people even jumped onto the roof and watched leisurely while he was dealing with the body.
The degree of evil and chaos here was beyond Angel's imagination.
Angel turned his head and looked at the Peace Tower where gentle singing could still be heard, and then looked at the evil happening in the shadows, and finally understood why everyone was sarcastic about the Peace Tower.
There is white in the world, and there is black. There has always been a gray area between white and black, but there is no such area in Lloyds, and the black and white are so distinct that it is outrageous.
At this time, the burly man who had dealt with the apprentice's body walked back with the harvest. Halfway through, he bumped into Angel who was standing still.
"Hey, there is another person here?" The burly man thought he hadn't noticed it before, and when he saw Angel, he looked him up and down.
"The energy aura is very weak, he should be a first-level apprentice." The burly man thought for a while: "There is nothing on him, could he be a rookie who came here for sightseeing?"
When the burly man was thinking about whether to deal with the man in front of him, Angel glanced at him lightly and walked towards the depths of the abyss.
The burly man looked at the direction where Angel went. Is that the trading area?
His eyes suddenly lit up, and he whispered to himself: "I am going to cast a long line, hoping to catch a big fish."
After that, the burly man followed Angel without any cover.
The burly man thought he spoke in a low voice, but with Angel's current physical strength, even without special perception, he could easily hear the sound of insects dozens of meters away, not to mention that the burly man was only five or six meters away from him.
"Fishing? Who is fishing for whom? It's still uncertain." Bu Lei, flying high in the sky, looked at the burly man's behavior with a hint of interest in his eyes.
The burly man followed Angel and soon arrived at the trading area. Along the way, he didn't notice that except for him, no one else seemed to see Angel. Instead, his strange behavior attracted the attention of some people.
When he came to a dark alley, Angel stopped and looked up at the sky.
Brulee was circling here, indicating that the location of the Ash Time Caravan was inside.
Angel glanced at the burly man behind him with his peripheral vision and walked into the dark alley without hesitation.
At this moment, the burly man finally had some doubts in his heart, but not because of Angel's gaze, but looking at this alley. Not long ago, he heard that there was a caravan called Ash Time in the ruins of this alley. They had a lot of top-quality goods, but few people could afford them.
The person he followed entered the territory of the Ash Time Caravan. Could it be that he wanted to buy things from the caravan?
If so, he would definitely make a lot of money after robbing!
However, those who can afford to buy things from the Ash Time Merchants must have a good background. If he attacks them, will he cause trouble? This is also the reason why the burly man hesitated.
After thinking for a while, the burly man decided to follow.
If he really succeeded in this deal, he would definitely make a profit. Even if there was a problem, with his strength as a level 2 peak apprentice, he would be able to suppress it.
After making sure that the burly man followed, Angel continued to walk into the dark alley.
When he reached the end, Angel saw a group of ruins in the distance. At the same time as seeing the ruins, he also saw a group of people wearing black cloaks, standing in the middle of the ruins, near the iron cages. nt
