Compared with Moon City, which has been stationed next to Mist Wall in the east for thousands of years, City of Silver's living situation is much better, so the population has always been maintained at around 5,000 people. Even outside Forsaken Land of the Gods, it is considered a large town, so it has sufficient manpower to ensure day and night patrols and city gate garrisoning.
After noticing the approaching light, the guards quickly gathered and looked into the distance, confirming that the two figures indeed belonged to humans.
And according to their experience, in this god-forsaken Earth Mother, no one except humans would use flames to create light in the dark. Even monsters that can control flames to kill enemies will only ignite flames when they launch attacks, and they usually lurk in the darkness.
"Quickly, go inform the elders that someone, something suspicious of a human being, is approaching!"
One of the guards whispered instructions to his companions.
He was not sure that the person approaching City of Silver was a real "human". Perhaps it was a monster that had turned into a human form and could use fire in disguise. The best way was to be prepared for the attack.
But when he raised his head again, he found that the two figures had disappeared as strangely as they had appeared.
The guard's body stiffened instantly, and cold sweat broke out on his face and vest.
"The guards here are quite vigilant. They spotted us from a long distance away. I thought they would relax a little now that the surrounding monsters have been cleared away."
Mirror World, said Angel who led Klein into City of Silver through a dark and gloomy Mirror Tunnel.
"This has been their way of survival for thousands of years. Remember the Amon clone that parasitized Captain Expedition Team and sneaked into the city? He was locked in the dungeon for forty-two years, and even if no problem was found, he was never let out."
Klein replied casually, looking around and enjoying the unique visual experience of roaming Mirror World.
This is similar to him moving forward in Historical Void, but one is in space and the other is in time. And compared to the bizarre History Void, which was formed by the superposition of all historical events within his cognition, Mirror World is like Forsaken Land of the Gods without stars and moon. Except for a few sparse Mirror Tunnel, it is dark, strange and eerie.
At this moment, Angel, who was hugging him from behind, moved, and the two of them approached a mirror with a small space behind it. They got out of here and came to a room made of huge stones.
Feeling that the comfortable temperature and touch left his back, Klein, who was slightly disappointed, looked at his surroundings and confirmed that he had arrived at the dome tower of the Twin Towers building. Then he took Angel through the densely arranged candles and oil lamps, and quickly found the room of "Chief" Colin Iliad that he had been to last time.
When passing the window looking out to the outside world, Angel looked out and saw the entire "night view" of City of Silver from a high place. He was surprised that such a dangerous and barren place could maintain a town of this size.
After several trips back and forth to Forsaken Land of the Gods, Angel already knew that this place called "East Continent" by the outside world was not suitable for human beings or any normal creatures to survive at all. There is no Sun here, most plants cannot survive, and the same goes for the animals that feed on it, which leads to the destruction of the entire food chain. Only strange monsters that mutate in the dark, prey on each other, and accumulate madness and toxins can survive.
If City of Silver hadn't had "Black-Faced Grass", I'm afraid he would have become just like Moon City. He could only hunt monsters for food, accumulate toxins in his body, and become deformed or crazy... Looking at a bunch of hair-like black plants growing out of the cracks in the masonry, sometimes hanging down and sometimes swaying in the windless environment, Angel was thoughtful.
Suddenly, she looked above her head as if sensing something.
A faint but needle-like touch came from the "chief" room at the top of the tower, making her feel as if she was being watched by someone, giving her the illusion of facing danger.
"It seems that the 'Chief' Your Excellency has discovered us."
Angel said softly, facing that position and smiling.
The hostility is gone.
At the top of Round Tower, Angel and Klein saw the chief elder Colin Iliad of "Council of Six" with gray hair, heavy nasolabial folds, and all kinds of old scars on his face.
The "Silver Knight" who had sensed Angel from a distance had his eyes fixed on her. He was surprised at her beauty and natural temptation that transcended race and culture. He was also wary of her ability to realize that she was being targeted and even smile back.
He used the "warning" sent by God-level Sealed Artifact guarding City of Silver. Gehrman Sparrow, the beloved of Mr. "Fool", never felt anything.
This means that the other party is likely to be a Angel, who has the same personality as Sealed Artifact!
After a moment of silence, Colin took the lead and asked:
"Are you the one who is ready to help us explore 'Giant King’s Court', um, Mr. 'Fool''s favored one?"
In fact, I am the favored one of Goddess, a member of Meeting Before God of Mr. Fool, and by the way, I am the pope of Witch Church... Angel murmured in his heart, realizing that the other party would probably notice that he was Angel of Sequence 2, so he would use honorifics, so he nodded and said:
"Yes, but it mostly depends on whether you accept the help or not."
She didn't answer like this to embarrass the residents of City of Silver. After all, "Let City of Silver leave Forsaken Land of the Gods" itself is the ceremony for Klein's promotion, and in view of "Sun For the sake of Mr.", and for the tragic history of more than two thousand years of suffering in Forsaken Land of the Gods, Angel does not mind helping them so that they can bathe in the sea breeze, enjoy the sunshine, and go to the rich outside world.
But the free ones are the most expensive. If Angel promised to help without asking for any compensation, I'm afraid City of Silver's "Council of Six" would think there was some conspiracy, so she decided to put forward a condition that was not difficult:
"The reward for letting me help is to show me two '0' level Sealed Artifact, which you call 'God-level Sealed Artifact', and tell me their functions, negative effects and sealing methods."
This kind of request inevitably makes people think that they are coveting the two Sealed Artifact, so Angel was prepared to be rejected, but the chief just thought for a moment and answered:
"I need to discuss this with other elders and cannot make a commitment alone."
"This is very reasonable. Then let's discuss the matter of exploring 'Giant King’s Court' on the premise that you can agree."
Angel nodded with satisfaction and said.
She knows that if this kind of thing can be discussed, the probability of passing it will not be low. After all, compared with the secret of "0" level Sealed Artifact, allowing City of Silver to leave Forsaken Land of the Gods and get rid of the current predicament is the most important. Moreover, Angel suspects that the use of these two pieces of Sealed Artifact is very limited, otherwise City of Silver should have taken them out and tried to attack "Giant King’s Court".
As for her purpose, she really just wants to understand the power of "0" level Sealed Artifact so that she can use it as a reference to formulate a plan to use and seal the "Sword of Glory" she owns and the "Salinger’s Blood Banner" still stored in Molora.
After hearing Angel's words, the corners of Colin Iliad's always droopy, somewhat serious mouth moved up slightly. Just as he was about to say something, Klein on the side interrupted:
"Let other members who are preparing to go to Giant King’s Court also come."
Colin looked at him, nodded slightly and said:
"We were originally planning to send out a whole team of Expedition Team, but if this... lady joins, the number may be reduced a lot."
"Members below Demigod are really not necessary."
Angel commented calmly, trying to keep his tone calm so as not to be taken as provocation or ridicule.
Colin, who was much taller than both her and Klein, but not very tough, was stunned for a moment, left the room, and came into the room with a man and a woman after a while.
Angel walking in front can recognize Tarot Club's "Sun" Derrick Berg just by his familiar outline. Although he is still underage, there is still a gap in height between him and the chief who is over 2.3 meters tall. Counting City of Silver He may be stunted, but "Unshadowed" who has just been promoted to Sequence 4 has a hint of light in his brown pupils that does not belong to Forsaken Land of the Gods. It is the Sun light that all City of Silver residents pray for.
The woman at the back is half a head shorter than Derrick. She wears a black robe with many mysterious purple patterns. She has long silver-white slightly curly hair hanging on the back of her head. Her fair and translucent skin is quite different from other residents in City of Silver who mostly have giant blood. Her bright and majestic face shows a look of confusion due to the presence of Angel and Klein in the room.
She quickly noticed that Derrick, who was called by the chief together, had a dull expression, as if he had already known the two strangers, and she was the only one who didn't know the truth.
What's going on? She looked at Colin Iliad and asked with her light gray, almost transparent eyes.
The latter briefly introduced:
"These two are helpers who came to explore Giant King’s Court with us, Mr. 'Fool''s favored ones, Mr. Gehrman Sparrow, and..."
"Angelica Zaki."
Angel said, using the same pseudonym as Klein.
At first glance, she recognized this woman who was more than half a head taller than herself as "Sun" who was often mentioned on her lips, second only to chief Colin in frequency, Luvia Tiffany, a follower of "True Creator", and "Shepherd" of Sequence 5.
No, now she has been promoted to "Black Knight" and became Demigod... Well, whether the followers of the evil god are crazy or not, they must be handsome men and beautiful women. Do they have any special preferences in choosing the target of their mission...Angel remembered the information he had received from Derrick not long ago, and smiled slightly at Lovia, which made the other party's gaze glazed over for a moment. After a moment, he recovered as if he had thought of something, and shouted in surprise:
"Believer of 'Fool'!"
Behind her, a majestic figure appeared instantly, almost higher than the ceiling. It was a knight wearing silver full-body armor. His body was hunched, his head drooped forward, his eyes were dark red like blood and burning like fire.
"Lovia!"
The chief frowned and called to the other party as a reminder.
"Are you a believer in 'True Creator'?" Angel suddenly said. The soft tone and calming power made Lovia stop his subsequent actions. "In terms of exploring Giant King’s Court, your Lord's interests are consistent with ours. If you have any doubts, you can pray to Him and ask about it."
This "Black Knight" and her Grazing's "Silver Knight" stared at Angel, seemingly confirming the authenticity of what she said. After a moment, the figure of the giant knight came back into Lovia's body. The latter nodded slightly as if nothing had happened and stopped talking.
Seeing that the spokesmen of "Fool" and "Fallen Creator", whom he had high hopes for at the same time, did not conflict and cause irreparable consequences, Colin secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said loudly:
"Then let's talk about how to explore 'Giant King’s Court' and face the threat of 'Dark Angel'."
On another night of Forsaken Land of the Gods, Angel, who was waiting in the dome tower, finally received a response from "Chief" Colin:
"Council of Six" Except for the one stationed at Afternoon Town who was unable to attend and Luvia Tiffany voted against it, the other four people including Colin agreed to show the two God-level Sealed Artifact to Angel in exchange for the help of Angel.
What surprised Angel was that the person who led her "tour" was actually Lovia, one of the elders on the council who voted against it.
