In Trier, there are not many people who install artificial eyes, but there are definitely a lot of them. For the sake of artificial eyes, a quarter of the face is transformed into a mechanical one. Whether it is Jenna or Franca, I have never seen it before.
But when they thought about Monks, which was suspected to be "God of Steam and Machinery" Church, the two of them felt normal:
Being obsessed with machines and worshiping machines are the main characteristics of those people!
Holding Carbide Lamp, Monks, wearing a white apron like Stonemason, stepped into Tunnel. The emerald green prosthetic eye surrounded by numerous Gearss and springs seemed to have a life of its own, sometimes moving to the left, sometimes moving up, scanning the surroundings.
Franca pulled Jenna, signaling her to stop looking in the direction of Tunnel and quickly look away to avoid being noticed by the other party.
The two of them retreated deeper into the hiding place, hiding where the Carbide Lamp light could not reach.
Wearing gray Robe but not wearing Hood, "God of Steam and Machinery" Church Monks walked forward slowly, looking around and approaching the bottom of Deep Valley Quarry, which was the area that had collapsed and been buried.
Thanks to the ability of "Assassin" and the protection of darkness and shadow, Jenna and Franca were not discovered. They waited until the Monks was far away from the Tunnel exit before quietly sticking their heads out and casting their gaze on each other's back.
Monks, who was holding Carbide Lamp, stopped on the side of the collapsed area, stretched out his right palm that reflected the light of iron-colored metal, and grasped a bump.
A clicking sound followed, as if there were multiple huge Gearss biting tightly and rotating slowly.
The stone wall cracked, and multiple metal chains extended from behind each rock.
As a result, these rocks bloomed like flowers, revealing a deep and dark Cave.
By the light of Carbide Lamp in the hands of that Monks, relying on the vision like "Assassin" Eagle, Franca and Jenna saw Cave filled with a faint White Fog, and saw arms and thighs inlaid on the rock wall there.
Human arms, human thighs!
Some of them are still very fresh, and some are shriveled, but none of them show signs of decay.
Jenna and Franca couldn't help but look at each other, seeing varying degrees of surprise and fear in each other's eyes.
As Monks walked into Cave, a certain mechanism was triggered, and the metal chains relaxed at the same time, allowing the rock to return to its original position and re-form the stone wall, leaving only a few cracks that seemed to symbolize signs of collapse.
So that's it... I had preconceptions and always believed that this place was on the verge of collapse, and I didn't have any doubts about the cracks... Franca suddenly realized, and understood the reason why he and Jenna had not found the anomaly.
She pulled Jenna's arm and said in a lowered voice, "Leave here now, and then look for opportunities to explore later."
Now that you have discovered the problem and mastered the method of turning on Hidden Cave, there is no need to have a head-on conflict with Monks of That One"God of Steam and Machinery"Church. You can come back another time!
Jenna nodded slightly, turned "Ring of Punishment" on his finger, hunched over, followed Franca, exited Concealment, and returned to the gate of Deep Valley Quarry along Tunnel.
Seeing her opening the door and going out, Franca quickly stopped her in a low voice:
"No need to rush."
"Why?" Jenna looked confused.
Franca straightened his back unconsciously and said with a smile, "Just one Monks came in does not mean that only one Monks came to Quarry."
"Perhaps That One left two companions outside just now to prevent Bounty Hunter and Private Detective from breaking in?
"If we go out in a big way like this, we are likely to expose ourselves and be attacked!
"Also, Gatekeeper may have woken up."
Jenna felt a little ashamed:
"I understand."
Franca immediately expressed relief. "This is all the product of experience. Now that you know it, you won't make similar mistakes Error in the future."
As she spoke, she took out a palm-sized Mirror and stuffed it into Jenna's hand:
"You hold it for me, and I'll go out and explore the way.
"If I am attacked later, you can take the opportunity to take this Mirror, hide it in the darkness at the door, and sneak in the direction away from Deep Valley."
Guessing that Franca wanted to use "Mirror Substitute", Jenna didn't waste any time and agreed directly.
After getting ready, Franca carefully opened a gap under Deep Valley Quarry's heavy Wooden Door.
There was only the sound of Insect Chirping frogs croaking outside, and there was no other movement.
The crack in the door became wider and wider, and Franca got out, diving into the night that Crimson Moonlight couldn't see.
Jenna held Mirror hard, his spirit was highly tense, and he was always ready to take action.
After more than ten seconds, Franca returned to the door and said in a lowered voice, "Come out, there is no other Monks."
Jenna breathed a silent sigh of relief, dodged out, and closed the door Wooden Door again without making any noise.
When the two left Deep Valley Quarry, they looked at the "hut" on the rock wall at the same time and saw That One Gatekeeper sleeping soundly, but his posture was a little Change.
Franca stared at it for several seconds and noticed from a short distance that there were red and swollen marks under Gatekeeper's ears.
"He was attacked and is now in a state of being knocked unconscious instead of being knocked unconscious by drugs..." Franca frowned and expressed his observations.
Jenna thought of Monks who was wearing a mechanical prosthetic eye just now, pointed at Wooden Door of Quarry and said, "Were you knocked unconscious by That One inside?"
Franca nodded slightly:
"It's very possible. It seems that he doesn't want to be discovered by Gatekeeper that he has entered Quarry.
"Haha, Gatekeeper must have been knocked unconscious again before he could get rid of the effects of the drug."
Jenna laughed when he heard this, "When we knocked him out, he might not have been sleeping, but was knocked out by someone else."
"..." Franca was startled for a moment and sighed sincerely, "If this is really the case, I feel a little sorry for him."
Each wave of people didn't know that the person in front had already knocked out Gatekeeper, and chose to deal with it in their own way. As a result, Gatekeeper continued to fall into coma, again and again.
Jenna and Franca did not delay and left Deep Valley Quarry under the cover of night.
Market Avenue, Breeze Ballroom.
Lumian went back to the second floor Café, asked for a cup of Red Wine, and sipped it slowly.
After a while, Louis came up, leaned into his ear and said, "Boss, Mill Ballroom, there are a few more Bounty Hunter making trouble there, they seem to want to share some benefits."
After the destruction of Stinger Gang's top brass, some of the remaining members were taken away by Police, some fled to unknown locations, some joined other gangs, and some chose to find legitimate jobs, and all those industries were taken over by different forces at low prices.
Among them, Savoie Gang got the biggest piece of the pie, so that manpower became scarce, and several industries were in a semi-stocked state. From time to time, people made trouble and wanted to fill the "blank".
Lumian cracked his knuckles and said with a smile, "Send someone to ask them if they want to be my enemy or my dog."
He found that after being promoted to "Pyromaniac", he was more aggressive than before, and his hands were already itchy after not fighting with anyone for such a period of time.
In addition, if you dare to cause trouble with the Dance Hall, which nominally belongs to Savoie Gang, there may be one or two Beyonder among those Bounty Hunter, and the "Shadow Tree Branch" of Lumian still lacks the corresponding Beyonder Characteristic.
Louis replied excitedly, "Yes, Boss!"
He quickly turned around and went downstairs to arrange for Thug to "inquire" with Mill Ballroom.
Seeing that it was almost time, Lumian, who planned to write back to Golden Rooster Inn and write to "Magician" Lady, began to wait patiently.
In less than two quarters of an hour, Louis took a man to the second floor.
The man was about thirty years old, wearing a cheap formal suit, a black top hat, brown hair, brown eyes, regular facial features, and a tall build. He was the type who could play a positive role in Old Dovecage Theater.
As soon as he saw Lumian, he smiled, took off his hat and said, "Good evening, Boss."
"Who are you?" Lumian asked funnyly.
The man replied seriously:
"Boss, didn't you ask me to come over and be your dog?"
"..." With Lumian's mind and quick wit, he was a little stunned for a moment.
He asked those people if they wanted to be dogs just to piss them off and see if they could have a less friendly "spar".
After a few seconds, Lumian chuckled softly and said, "I asked you to be a dog, will you really do it?"
"This is my opportunity!" The man didn't feel ashamed, but was very proud. "I believe that by following Boss, you can truly realize my value. In the future, I may have the opportunity to become your Godson!"
How old are you? You are softer than "Giant" Simon... Lumian asked with interest, "Why do you think I will give you a chance?"
The man did not answer immediately, but looked at Louis and Sakota, seemingly asking them to avoid it.
Lumian, who was preparing for a battle, was not worried about being assassinated, so he let Louis and Sakota leave Café.
He then looked at the man and asked with a smile, "Can you talk now?"
The man cleared his throat and said, "My name is Lugano Toscano, a Beyonder."
"Which Pathway is it and how much is Sequence?" Lumian raised his eyebrows.
Lugano smiled again:
"I am a 'Planter', Sequence 9."
"Earth Mother" Church that Pathway? Lumian nodded thoughtfully:
"Are you from Feynapotter?"
"No, I am from Leston Province." Lugano said with a smile, "A few years ago, several friends and I became Bounty Hunter. We went to Feynapotter from time to time and met a Beyonder. Later, he died and I got his relics."
Fellow countryman...That One was murdered by you, or did something happen to him that gave you an advantage? Lumian motioned to Lugano to continue.
Lugano chuckled and said, "Now I hope to become Sequence 8's 'Doctor', but I still have a lot of money left before I can buy the corresponding Potion." Main Ingredient, I heard about your deeds Boss, and guessed that you are the powerful Beyonder. I also knew that Savoie Gang is currently short of manpower, so I wanted to make trouble to see you. I hope to be your assistant, help you take charge of an industry, and earn some hard money.
"'Doctor' is very useful, whether it is Ordinary Person or Beyonder."
