Song of Time – Dusk Awakening Verse
Chapter 52: .The Lonely King (Part 1)
Compared with the neat and orderly airship platform, the interior of Rock City presents an unruly mess.
Passing through the 20-meter-deep fluorite tunnel under the city gate, you face an oval-shaped huge rock house about 60 meters high and 100 meters wide. That is the most lively place in the city: the Mercenary Hall. The entire red and yellow stone house is filled with weird graffiti painted with various paints. There are no formal entrances and exits at the front and back. Everyone must enter the hall through those large and small cavities on the periphery. It looks like a half from a distance. The battered flower melon skin always makes people feel a little creepy.
Rhea didn’t plan to enter the hall today, but just took a habitual glance, and took Yuno along the wide winding road to the northwest along the side of the city gate, where the mercenaries loved and loved. The location of the hated Carlo Magic Workshop.
The layers on both sides of the road are superimposed, and most of the residential houses carved out along the stone wall are very simple. With one door and two windows, plus a few steps of stone steps, it becomes a safe haven. A narrow stone road connects all the huts, and there are pontoon bridges of different lengths above the driveway to reach all levels. This multi-layer cobweb-like traffic structure often disorients newcomers to Rock City and can no longer remember their own. Where is the residence?
Follow the main road all the way to the west, passing through a green tree square with an underground reservoir, bypassing the heavily guarded improved bread tree plantation, and walking north for a while, you can see the full Mechanical style Carlo Workshop peripheral trading field. The square three-story building is 18 meters high, and there are large and small elevators all over the alloy wall. You can transport guests and goods to the platform outside the entrance of each floor by simply selecting the direction and pressing the button. It is very convenient.
No matter when you come here throughout the year, the venue is always crowded with merchants, spies and orderers from all over the place, and the surrounding stone houses have been turned into restaurants and hotels of all kinds. The business is booming, of course. In the eyes of the major forces in the city, the battleground.
"Sister Rhea..." The female lord was still looking at the crowded caravan outside the trading floor, feeling the amazing financial resources of her female luxury business partner, Yuno suddenly leaned to her and whispered, "I see the side There are a group of people from the Flower Guards... must have been sent by my father to wait for me! Let's go, I don't want them to follow."
His Royal Highness Saron is really persevering. Over-protection can also cause headaches... Rhea couldn't help but laugh, glanced away, and she saw a group of powerful warriors wearing golden cloaks and lazy silver inlaid armor at the intersection, looking around. what. She glanced at the little doctor who was stretched and straightened and looked a little nervous, and naturally brought him inward with her movements, lowered her hood, and still walked unhurriedly. Her ubiquitous gray cloak was inconspicuous in the flow of people, and naturally did not attract any attention from the tracker, and thus successfully avoided an embarrassing crisis.
To the north of the trading floor is the high-voltage power grid wall at the outermost periphery of the workshop. Teams of puppet soldiers with heavy weapons patrol the defensive guards day and night, and the slightest movement will call in more patrolmen for assistance. In the guard booth in the center of the gate, there are more powerful people sitting in town, and an automated firepower net is on standby at any time. If it is not for the staff or invited people, they will never be able to easily pass this barrier.
When I got here, there were basically no people around me. Rhea turned a blind eye to the group of puppet soldiers with silver reflections, and familiarly walked to the black sensor in the middle of the protective grid, and put his right hand up. In the blink of an eye, the green light came on, and with the sound of Dingdong’s copper bells, the electric wall slowly retreated a small opening. Rhea pulled Yuno and swiftly drilled in. In the next second, the gap was covered by the arc again. All the eyes trying to look inward.
Inside the electric wall is a large empty slate flat ground. There are several silver-white metal buildings in the distance. There are also many strange-shaped machines lined up outside the building. It is not clear what they are used for. Rhea looked around and fixed her gaze on the two figures in the shadows in front of the building. Without a word, she ran towards there with Yuno in strides, and soon heard a faint conversation.
"... Didn't I ask you to help me keep it a long time ago? Tell me nothing! Humph! Who is responsible? I want to deduct his bonus!" This angrily girl's voice must belong to the worker. Fang’s head-alchemist Gloria Vera.
"Miss... you also know that there has been too much pressure recently. If we don't deliver the goods, it will inevitably cause some trouble... You are not in a hurry to use it anyway, I agree..." This is a slander The middle-aged man’s voice sounds like his position is not low.
"Okay, okay, it turned out that you did it, and I was so good to you at a loss! Come back the nine-fold star track analyzer I gave you last month, come back soon!"
"Miss, you...Who would ask for a birthday present again..." The man gave a wry smile, sighed and begged for mercy, "Well, I'll give you time to rush out one... …Do you think it’s okay?"
"……how long?"
"This... five days?"
"what!?"
"No, four...three...two days, two days, what do you think?" The man carefully glanced at her expression, and finally gritted his teeth and settled on the bottom line of two days.
"Huh..." The girl still seemed dissatisfied, but she inadvertently caught a glimpse of Rhea who was striding towards her. Her expression changed and she rushed to the past with a smile. Sister, Yuno! You are finally here!"
"Be careful!" Rhea frowned and greeted the girl with her arms outstretched. Although the other party is not weak in terms of physique, Rhea has always regarded her as a porcelain doll due to a natural illness and never allowed her to do physical work.
"Don't worry, I'm not that delicate!" As if to prove his strength, the alchemist grinned and shook her hand vigorously.
The female lord was unmoved on the floor and wanted to blame, the girl rolled her eyes, peeked to the side and took Yuno's hand, and ran back upstairs with him, and she shouted: "Come with me, take you to see my latest masterpiece!"
The little doctor was dragged forward by her before he even had time to say a word. He stumbled and rushed for several steps before he became stable. He didn't dare to pull his hands hard for fear that she would fall, so he could only hold his breath with a bitter smile. , Buggy sprinting with the girl.
Rhea stood on the spot and squinted her eyes, looking helplessly at the two teenagers desperately running ahead, tapping their toes, and just a few small jumps caught up with them. Several people followed each other around the corner of the floor, and a heavy tank made of pure alloy was parked in the open space in front of it, which looked like a giant scorpion and was more than three meters high and more than ten meters long.
"Dangdangdang..." Gloria jumped to the foot of the chariot impatiently, holding on to the shiny and reflective alloy plate, and introducing it word by word, "Look, look, it's amazing, isn't it? Handsome? This big guy, huh, call Tamiris, this mission depends on it!"
This mechanical behemoth looked awe-inspiring, but it didn’t fit Yuno’s aesthetics. He slowly turned around the chariot, twitched the corner of his mouth, and asked strangely: "...you give it back Name the car?"
"Hmm..." The girl proudly akimbo her hands and shouted, "Tamiris! Open the door!"
This clear voice echoed on the wall for a while, but it did not trigger any follow-up reaction, and there was just silence around it. Yuno raised his ears and blinked, and stared at the girl stupidly, not understanding the purpose of her shout. Rhea walked forward with small steps, tapped the car for an interview to test its hardness, and was about to ask for details when she heard a mechanical voice mixed with rustling frequency interference: "Tamiris, Tamiris."
The two crystal lights at the front of the car that were supposed to be decoration suddenly lit up. The huge behemoth shook itself a few times, flicking the iron tail hook like a long whip, slowly opened the side door, and stopped again. Moved.
"...This is a puppet soldier!? It's so cool!" Yuno couldn't help but exclaimed, excitedly turned to the front of the chariot, staring at the two blue crystals.
"I didn't expect it?" The alchemist almost lifted his nose up into the sky proudly. This heavy puppet chariot was designed by her after spending countless days and nights. Of course, she must show it off.
The girl turned her head and glanced at Rhea, and she was extremely proud to see that she was also staring at the chariot with her mouth open and scanning up and down. She rolled her eyes again, quickly ran into the car to sit in the driving position, buckled the seat belts, and shouted to the two of them: "Come in! I will take you to the street to try the car, and by the way, find the big man Emon ."
After hearing this, Yuno had no objections, and immediately turned into the car door and took a glance around the soft seat back. The entire tank looked quite high, but the cabin seemed unexpectedly crowded. Except for a few seats and a row of empty weapon slots, there were only countless instruments and electronic screens that were incomprehensible. He had no interest in these alchemist-specific equipment, moved forward to a position behind the girl, and watched her operation enthusiastically, as if he had made up his mind to open it by himself.
"Drive slowly and watch out for the crowd." Rhea whispered, sitting on the seat by the door, buckling the seat belt, quietly watching the excited two people in front of him, but there was still some attention left. Pay attention to the surrounding movement.
"Sit down! Let's go!" Gloria screamed, pressing several operation buttons on the panel, the door slowly closed, the sunshade steel plate above was quickly pulled down, and there was only the bridge in the entire field of view. There is a bright space ahead. Immediately there was a rumble of magical roar, all the instruments in the car flashed light, the whole tank trembled slightly, and it was driven forward by the flying track wheels. The huge impact shook Yuno, who had not had time to buckle his seat belt, to the rear seat. Fortunately, Rhea quickly grabbed him with eyesight and was free from suffering.
"Slow down!" The female lord yelled with a thin anger. The girl spit out her tongue playfully and pressed the mechanism. The speed of the car dropped sharply, and three pairs of giant mechanical feet suddenly stretched out under the baffle hidden on both sides of the chariot. The car body is propped up high, simulating the natural form and stepping forward smoothly.
As soon as the person in charge in the guard booth at the gate saw this awe-inspiring and weird chariot, he opened the power grid with extraordinary calmness and watched it go downhill. The head of the workshop was born with a playful temperament, and the guards had long since been surprised, and didn't even need to ask much.
The giant scorpion chariot seemed to be slow and ill, and headed to the northeast at a fixed pace. When the pedestrians on the road saw this behemoth monster, they all avoided, either admired or admired, but did not dare to stop in front of it. Didn't you see the huge Carlo Workshop robot badge on the body? What's more, those who dared to show off in Yancheng, except for the female alchemist from the enemy's country, were afraid that there would be no more people.
Tamiris moved forward steadily, and soon came outside the giant amphitheater in the city-this is the most frequent place for all mercenaries who love to fight. The quaint block boulders form a simple round high wall. The 30-meter-high wall is equipped with a full ten-story viewing platform, and various tall plants for shading are planted throughout. There will also be vendors pushing carts selling food and drinks among the platforms on each floor. If you don't look at the brawny men with weird attire and rude talk around you, it will be like an amphitheatre.
The chariot stood in the parking lot delineated outside the stone wall, the mechanical feet turned inward, and the track steel wheels touched the ground again. The car door opened wide, Rhea stretched out her hand to pull Yuno's hood, and when she got out of the car, she carefully scanned around, and after confirming safety, she led the two through the wall entrance and saw from a distance. Several figures were already standing on the competitive platform ahead.
The afternoon sun makes people feel hot, but the atmosphere in the arena makes people even more blood boil. Countless noises, cheers, screams, and all kinds of sharp percussions crowded in this round arena, mixed into the hot and trembling wind, and choked people out of breath.
The entrance was still some distance away from the platform. The three of them gathered close together and walked along the crowded crowd. They heard a screaming sound, and then came the voice of an enthusiastic young man: "Men, women We, as well as guests from afar! Welcome to our world-famous Arena for pastime on this sunny afternoon. I’m fast broadcaster Jesse, and I will bring you this unprecedented grand battle!"
"Ah, I know you will definitely ask: Jessie, today is not your duty day, why did you come to broadcast? Yes, that’s right! The reason why Jessie gave up a rare vacation and came to love you guys The gossiping guys are fighting together because, our God J! Our God J finally accepted a new challenge!"
As the broadcasting man shouted with excitement to the hoarse, the screen behind the competition platform flashed a few times, and a video of a red-haired man appeared. He only showed his back, standing far away in an empty and lonely Gobi, his tight short-sleeved shirt stretched out his sturdy and powerful tall body, and the wind swept the yellow sand, blowing him like short thorns. The red hair stands backwards.
But he was motionless, not even the giant horse-cutting sword on his shoulder had a trace of tremor. There seemed to be some noise in the wind and sand. Suddenly, a blood basin that occupies the entire screen burst out of the sand without warning, as if to swallow him whole into the abdomen, with countless messy and dense fangs in his mouth. With the black light, it seemed that everyone at the scene could smell the stench of suffocation.
The man remained motionless, seemingly unaware of the deadly threat, but in the next second, he jumped up and swung the great sword like lightning. The red light split the space, and the terrifying blood mouth that could even chew the alloy was like paper, and was divided into two halves without any hindrance. The gloomy black mist crazily spilled from the remnant body, and this terrifying sand beast turned into black light, struck the sky, and completely disappeared into the mainland of Wilharun.
The red-haired man withdrew his sword and stood on the golden-scorched sand, turning his head slowly if he noticed it, revealing a cast-iron face. The video came to an abrupt end. This precious record, led by a reporter from a well-known newspaper, caused a sensation in the audience. Countless people cheered the name of the **** of war and frantically picked up weapons to knock on the alloy guardrail, and what's more Excited and tears on the spot.
The frantic cries that rose to the sky resounded across the sky and echoed in the sky, as if to pass on this great name to the entire continent, so I would not hesitate to do so.
