Chapter 432: No Exception
"Aren't we going up?" Xia Manman couldn't help but suggest as she accurately captured Ye Lan's curiosity and eagerness to try.
After thinking about it, Ye Lan shook her head slightly.
"Don't panic, just take a look first. It can't run away."
Yelan is now very concerned about the routine operations of this place of afterglow, which is the two ringing of bells.
He was not in a hurry for this moment, but out of his basic trust in 003, Yelan had to guard against his rash interruption, which would have an unpredictable and significant impact on the entire Yuguang Land.
While waiting quietly, more and more people gathered in Holy Light Square.
Although life in the Land of Yuguang is much happier than the entire wasteland, there have been magical rumors about this place in the past three days. How many people wouldn't want to give it a try?
The light in the sky became increasingly red and fiery, presenting a scene of the scorching sun setting over the western mountains. Under the bright afterglow of the setting sun, some street lights had been turned on in advance, emitting a silvery luster.
During such quiet waiting, Xia Manman was indeed the first to frown.
Ye Lan, who was observing the surrounding situation carefully, couldn't help but look over.
"What's wrong?"
"There's something wrong." Xia Manman said.
Ye Lan was neither surprised nor pleased by such an answer. Anyway, he was gradually becoming more enlightened.
Things related to you, no matter how normal they seem, will often turn into something outrageous in the end, right?
"What's wrong?"
"At all gathering points in the Land of Yuguang, morning bells and evening bells must be struck, day after day, year after year, without exception for decades." Xia Manman licked her chapped lips, At this moment, my nerves were a little tense.
"Because this is what the Lord God requires."
Ye Lan narrowed his eyes.
The request of the pure setting sun!
This is a very critical piece of information, because with his efficient and profit-maximizing style, what he said in person can never be a superficial incident just to give ordinary people spiritual sustenance!
"What would have happened if it hadn't been knocked?"
Xia Manman shook his head.
"...I don't know. Maybe only Li Gu's level and above can know the inside story. I'm just sure that if the two bells fail to ring every day, it will be devastating to the Yuguang Land gathering point. !”
"In the sixty-year history of the Sunset Religion, there has never been a situation where the bell could not ring, because this is impossible!"
Yelan nodded slightly, looked at the majestic tower, and spoke slowly.
"So, what's wrong now?"
From Yelan's perspective, everything was normal. The bottom-up elevator seemed to carry the slowly rising light of the Dawn Guard team to the end of the highest point smoothly.
But it was obvious that the whole square seemed to be a little restless.
"In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, he is also responsible for confirming the status of the team. Before each ringing of the bell, it will be knocked fifteen minutes in advance and every thirty seconds. It is a kind of rehearsal and status report."
Ye Lan looked down at the time and paused slightly.
"And now, there are only ten minutes left before sunset, but the little bell on the tower that symbolizes warm-up has not yet sounded?"
Xia Manman nodded solemnly.
"That group of people has already gone up. That means something happened to that group of people on the way up, or something happened to the top of the tower!"
Yelan's brows wrinkled.
The situation has become very difficult.
Although only a small team was sent for such a big and critical matter, it seemed that the error tolerance rate was very low, but...
The real secret and finale is on the high tower.
The Bottle of Edge and the Sunset Bell are already at least two anomalies!
What could happen?
Click.
Taking out the activated hook gun, Ye Lan aimed at the top of the tower.
"Eh? Wait!" Xia Manman was startled and quickly grabbed Ye Lan:
"What are you doing?"
"Go up and take a look at the situation." Ye Lan said matter-of-factly.
"Wait...wait a minute." Xia Manman was relatively clear about Ye Lan's plan and policy, so she tried to dissuade her.
"Wait a little longer. You won't be afraid of anyone, but at this moment, Dawn Fortress's nerves are probably on the verge of breaking out. You will definitely attack as an enemy."
Ye Lan frowned slightly, then nodded slightly.
That's true. Although in theory he could defeat the Dawn Fortress alone, putting aside the issue of exposing his identity, it would not be a suitable start to fight against the Dawn Fortress first without knowing what kind of big threat it was.
"good."
boom!
Ta-ta!
Bang!
A few minutes later, something like a flare pierced the sky, grew bigger and bigger, rose into the sky, and bloomed like the midday sun.
All the shadows were illuminated, as if it was afternoon, and for a while people could no longer tell the time.
The golden protective film surrounding the city that was previously speculated to be a 'small barrier' lit up, materializing and surrounding the entire Dawn Fortress.
Countless beams of light rose into the sky, and the overwhelming fog spread. The entire Dawn Fortress seemed to be in the clouds for an instant.
The roar of countless cars and helicopters echoed around, and the mighty Legion of Dawn arrived in droves, instantly surrounding the Holy Light Square.
Yelan stayed in the square without taking any action, thinking deeply.
No wonder Xia Manman stopped herself just now. Although she was not afraid at all, Dawn Fortress really took it seriously.
Psychic energy fluctuated everywhere, and Li Gu was in charge of the command. The fortress ring defense set up by 003 was fully activated, and all the elite troops of the Dawn Legion surrounded this place.
Ye Lan ignored the mighty power of the Dawn Fortress, raised his head, and looked directly at the top of the tower.
"Manman, I remember your previous introduction. Are you sure that the morning and evening bells every day are spread throughout the Yuguang Land, not the strongholds to which they belong?"
Xia Manman was stunned for a moment and nodded.
"Yes. When the two bells ring, you can hear them clearly in any corner of Yuguang Land."
Ye Lan looked solemn.
"Then in your precautionary requirements, if the Dawn Fortress fails to ring the morning and evening bells, will it affect Yuguang City?"
"There is no such statement." Xia Manman shook her head: "But it is certain that a big thing will happen to the gathering point that fails to ring the two bells."
Ye Lan faced the dazzling light in the air and squinted slightly.
The light was still shining, and the sun was scorching. But I don't know if it's an illusion.
Ye Lan felt that the sky of the Dawn Fortress seemed to be fixed.
Including the sun at the horizon, I always felt that as the minutes passed, it should go down a little bit.
But no, the sky became a little darker.
It was not the darkness of the night, but the real darkness.
The sunlight that burst out from the sky with human power and supernatural objects, like the sunlight at noon, seemed difficult to maintain and dimmed with the darkness.
