Chapter 493 The Clock Tower

At this moment, footsteps suddenly came from the other direction.

A large group of blurry figures were approaching hazily. Su Yue pulled out his knife and got ready to fight No. 102.

When they got closer, they realized that they were a group of modern people just like them, and they were wearing normal clothes like the funeral home.

In comparison, the people wearing animal suits looked as funny as primitive people.

The two teams stood on the left and right in front of the gate of hell, the atmosphere was tense, and neither side said a word.

"Wait, are you Su Yue?" One of the people on the other side said.

Su Yue's expression was slightly startled.

Immediately afterwards, another person on the opposite side said: "So you are from the Control Bureau?"

Xia Shou thought for a while and asked, "Are you a clock tower?"

He had heard the man from the funeral home mentioned before that he wanted to kill a group of troublemakers from the Clock Tower together with them. Since the other party was not wearing the uniform of the funeral home, he might be from the Clock Tower.

"Yes, we are the timekeepers of the clock tower." A gentle man wearing glasses stood up and introduced himself, "You can call me Pedros, the current second hand."

Xia Shou quickly ran through the information about the clock tower in his mind.

The Clock Tower is an organization determined to organize the seven branches of the ladder of the historical tree, trying to establish a traceable guide in the present world that can safely lead to the distant past.

In the political judgment of the Management and Control Bureau, it is a friendly party, that is, it is an organization that can communicate and negotiate like Dream Theater, and will choose a win-win situation if it can choose a win-win situation.

The owners of the clock tower call themselves timekeepers, and they are divided into twelve branch factions based on the time from one to twelve o'clock. The person with the highest status in each faction is respectfully called the hour hand, and the extremely powerful person is called the second hand. Above the second hand lies the more mysterious minute hand.

Using the Bureau of Control's finisher standards to benchmark, Miaozhen's combat effectiveness is generally at the level of a level five finisher. However, because the Clock Tower does not have additional requirements for protecting ordinary people like the Bureau of Control, such a determination of combat strength is only Limited to heads-up.

In other words, if there is no need to protect companions, Miaozhen is almost at the level of a fifth-level finisher.

It is said that most of their great strength is obtained in exchange for their life span.

After hearing the other party's name, No. 102's expression changed slightly: "Pedros..."

Seeing that No. 102 looked a little strange, Xia Shou asked directly: "What's wrong?"

"No need to worry, I can just say it myself." Pedros said, "I had some minor conflicts with the Control Bureau in the past. Later, after joining the Clock Tower, I have reconciled with the Control Bureau."

"Isn't that an understatement? In the battle with the coffin-carrying priest Charles, you destroyed the body of a sixth-level finisher, and then were defeated by Shang Liang and Mo Yunxi from our branch... To be precise, the Control Bureau determined at that time I have already killed you.

But then you joined the Clock Tower, and the three Clock Tower representatives personally came forward to help you negotiate a settlement with the Control Bureau, and then you were removed from the Control Bureau's wanted list. "

No. 102 sneered: "The write-off is for political reasons, but in fact the Control Bureau does not have any friendly relations with you. Who knows what you will do to us in a place like this.

However, don't say I didn't remind you, our captain... is the witch's trump card. "

No. 102 pointed at Xia Shou with his thumb.

The other Clock Tower members behind Pedros let out a cry.

"Tower of Fear was the one who broke the record. I lost two hundred dollars that time!"

"Is he the one who killed the Blood Demon? I heard that he was specially recruited into the department by the Witch, and he said that he would kill the Blood Demon that day. People in other departments still didn't believe it, so he went in alone and came out in less than an hour!"

"Later, when he came out of the Blood Demon's House, the execution team of the Control Bureau wanted to conduct a routine inspection on him. He cut off all the arms of the person without any reason! Because the witch was backing him, the execution department did not dare to say anything."

"How come I heard that he inherited the power of the Blood Demon?"

The members of the Clock Tower argued softly. When these words fell in Xia Shou's ears, he understood why the idiom "three men become tigers" came to mind.

It is true that he killed the Blood Demon, but the external propaganda of the Control Bureau was that the beast tamer got rid of the Blood Demon. How did it come to be that it was him later?

And he didn't cut off the arm of the firing squad. The firing squad almost killed him. Later, if Su Weiyu didn't happen to know 678, he would have been eaten by the lizard.

However, some "rumors" shocked Xia Shou, such as the statement that he inherited the power of the Blood Demon. They seemed to be rumors, but in fact they were facts. It was not known who spread the rumors.

Pedros smiled, then pointed to the plaque high above his head and said:

"Ghost Gate, the complete version should be Ghost Gate Pass. As Chinese people, you should understand the meaning behind this name better than I do. You are no longer in the present world, but in a period of abandonment."

Xia Shou knew this. This other kind of history in the history tree was different from the cyclic history. It was a bit like the present world. There was no concept of time reset, and there was no passage like the Seven Branches Gate.

Similarly, everything in the lost time can be brought back to reality. There is no need for tree branch fragments to be used as a transportation medium. However, if you bring everything here back to reality, you must bear the impact of the passage of time.

For example, if you bring an ordinary cup back to reality from lost time, the original time of the cup is thousands of years ago. Then when you reach reality, the cup will directly turn into powder and disappear.

Some abnormal items may lose their abnormality directly when brought back to the world, and they will become ordinary items.

However, there are also some abnormal items whose abnormality becomes stronger as time goes by. Such items will become very powerful.

Therefore, some bold people will deliberately look for lost time, and then choose local raw materials in lost time to make forbidden objects, and then bring these forbidden objects back to the original world, so that the abnormality of the forbidden objects will be greatly enhanced.

"The people from the funeral home are also here. They are also your enemies. Our interests are the same in this regard, but obviously they came here earlier than us, and you are the latest.

However, we don’t know much about this place, but there is a piece of information we already know that can be shared with you.

People here will not die. In addition, I think the place we are now should be the hell." Pedros said.

"Will not die? What do you mean?" Xia Shou looked puzzled.

Pedros tilted his head slightly and said to his subordinates behind him: "Let Kenon come over."

After a while, a man with a trance walked to Pedros.

"Kenon, show them."

Kenon took off his shirt, revealing a body that was obviously inconsistent with his head.

Pedros then asked: "How do you feel now?"
