Chapter 2 Tower

Latest website address: North Suniya Sea, "Morning Star City", inside the Mechanical Tomahawk Bar.

A middle-aged man with messy yellow short hair was sitting in a booth drinking alone, tasting the unique wine in this city that looked like a big factory.

After a while, two more men and one woman came to his vicinity one after another. After ordering drinks, they exchanged information in a low voice.

"Captain, we have been here for a few days and have a clear understanding of the situation in this city...

"By the way, they have been producing various weapons recently, and they are obviously going to sell them to several countries where wars are breaking out." The young man wearing a pirate turban reported with some disappointment.

At first he thought there would be treasure here.

The strong man called the captain ignored him and turned to look at his female companion with beautiful blue eyes and a slightly androgynous appearance.

After thinking about it, the lady replied in a low voice: "Captain, I think this place may belong to some secret organization. After all, there is no church in this city, but it worships an existence called the Mechanical Emperor...

"I suspect that the so-called Mechanical Emperor should be the original Emperor Russell! Maybe he was a fan of that big shot who lived in this place after his death.

"But the strange thing is that everyone here speaks Runen..."

The captain nodded and looked at the last old man. He is a believer in the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom" and is best at observation and reasoning: "Old Keton, do you have anything to add?"

Keton, who was wearing a white robe and brass-framed glasses on his nose, nodded and said:

"The people here look no different from people in other places, but there are many strange things...

"For example, they openly worship the so-called Mechanical Emperor, but everyone waits for the sunrise every morning and praises the "sun"... I suspect that they are actually believers in the Eternal Blazing Sun.

"Secondly, almost all of them wear armor to some extent, some on the abdomen, some on the chest, some on the arms, and some on the legs and feet... There are very few people who don't wear armor at all. And they are generally very young.

"The most important thing is, according to my observations over the past few days, they never take off their armor, even to sleep... This may be a custom passed down.

"Thirdly, this city with a population of about 10,000 has a very high literacy rate. Even the poor living in the sewers are not illiterate... This is simply incredible.

"Lastly, and what I can't understand the most, why should such a factory city be built in the sea far away from the mainland, even far away from most islands?

"How high is the transportation cost for the products they produce? This is unreasonable!"

After listening, the captain silently wrote down these questions, then raised his head, looked around, and asked again:

"So, have you noticed anything weird here?"

"Something strange..." The young man wearing a pirate turban thought for a moment, "I seem to have heard a middle-aged man say that he was celebrating his 240th birthday and that he must eat eggs this time.

Oops...but I may have heard wrong. He may have said forty years old. "

"I saw bee wings growing out of a little girl's back, but she blinked and disappeared again... I thought my eyes were dazzled..." The androgynous-looking woman became more and more uncertain as she spoke.

"A worker's finger was cut off by a machine, but black grease leaked out of it... But when I looked carefully, he was not injured at all." Old Linton's face was also ugly.

At this time, the captain stood up directly and lowered his voice and ordered: "Quick! Get back to the ship! Leave this island immediately!

"The existing information is enough for us to get the mission bonus from the Adventurers Mutual Aid Association...

The other three crew members were obviously aware of the danger at this time, and without any hesitation, they followed the captain and ran towards the dock.

Fortunately, there was no problem along the way, and they returned to their three-masted sailboat smoothly.

After pulling anchor and setting sail, the four people finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked back at the name "Morning Star".

When he entered the city, he was shocked to find that it had turned into a steel "giant", standing like that in the sea.

But before they could scream in surprise, the giant disappeared again, and "Morning Star City" remained in its original appearance.

However, the four of them did not dare to look any further. They ordered the sailors to hoist the sails and sail away from the sea at full speed.

When their ship disappeared into the sky, Klein, who had been hiding in the dark to create a "little surprise" for the four adventurers, showed a satisfied smile.

Although the actors are all residents of Morning Star City, he is the "screenwriter" and "director" himself, so the acting effect is quite good.

"Sure enough, the magician should be a horror film director..."

In the bedroom of the villa at No. 28 Kingston Street, Abner, who had just returned from exploring the "Unknown Land", thought for a long time and finally opened his eyes.

Just before, he not only recalled all the memories of Vicente Miranda and Rhine Carnaldia, but also recalled Alvin Abraham, Dennette Tinichole, and even Giuseppe Casti. Ya's once-hidden memories were also unearthed.

This not only gave him a clear understanding of his many plans in the past, but he also finally relied on the authority of "wisdom" to "guess" what his current path was after researched by his former self and the gods.

"Because once promoted to Sequence 1, the recovery mechanism of the unknown, or Liu Bo, will be triggered. At that time, the me in the depths of the unknown land...or the great existence will partially wake up and then replace it. My current understanding.

"When I was in Sequence 2, I basically relied on the balance of divinity, anchor, and unknown to maintain my state, and this triangle relationship is indeed the most stable... But the premise is that the sum of any two sides is greater than, The third side will do!

"And when it comes to Sequence 1, the unknown power will be greatly replenished by the partial awakening of that being, quickly overwhelming the divinity and anchor, and destroying my existing humanity.

"So, in order to deal with this situation, a lot of attempts were made at the end of every life except Giuseppe. In the end, the only way was to let the 'divineity' grow rapidly in Sequence 1!

"As long as" the divinity and the anchor together can overcome the unknown, then my humanity can still be retained and will not be completely covered by the will of that existence.

"As for the way to strengthen divinity...

"That is - the Ancient God! "Yes, I have only one path, and that is to become an Ancient God and indulge the madness and chaos in divinity to the greatest extent!

"That is, I, Abner, use myself as the cornerstone, with the help of one part, the all-knowing eye, one part, the emperor of knowledge, and one part, the snake of mercury, plus, the wheel of fortune, the uniqueness, Under the right opportunity, he becomes an ancient god who is rich in the power of "knowledge, wisdom and destiny".

"Oh, no wonder Yaluo Lan helped me retain a piece of knowledge before. No wonder there are three artifacts, the capture, the angel of destiny, the mercury snake, the characteristics...

"As for the Omniscient Eye, I'm afraid it was given by the Second Five Dragons, right? He has a way to turn the illusory Omniscient Eye in my "Pure White Eye" into reality, just like the visionary. A true all-seeing eye, give me its properties?

"However, this is not all of my previous plan...According to my setting, Vicente Miranda will be the cornerstone, with one Pale Emperor, one Conqueror, and one The hand of God, coupled with the uniqueness of "Red Priest", creates an ancient god who is rich in power, war, death and destruction.

"Using Denit as the cornerstone, one Lord of Filth, one Dark Angel, one 'Doomsday Witch' and the uniqueness of the abyss, a person of wealth, corruption, shadow and disaster, and authority was born. Ancient God.

"Finally, because the three ancient gods are actually me, they can merge with each other and accommodate the "Key of Light", "Shadow World" and the City of Disaster. With the help of the power of the unknown, we can piece together an unknown Only the "pillar" can compete with the real "Liu Bo".

"It stands to reason that to accommodate the three major sources, it is still the path of the three ancient gods, and madness is inevitable... But with the authority of the unknown, there is another one.

Silk possible.

"Because, in front of the unknown, everything is unknown, even the way to become a pillar is the same.

"And the authority of this pillar exactly corresponds to the meaning of the tower in the Tarot cards...

"Welcome to the sudden disaster, the fate of the fallen tower, the shadow of death and destruction, but after the disaster there is the possibility of starting over...

"And the tower itself is a symbol of knowledge...

"Oh, it turns out that the tower card I chose in front of Klein was also a sign of destiny...

"This unknown old day, no, the name of the unknown pillar is called Tower!"
