Demon Sage

clang~clang~clang~

The bell rang at eight o’clock sharp, the lights on the top of the clock tower lit up, and people poured out from the gate of the Preston City Hall next to it. .

The day’s work is over.

Donald sat at the government gate with a book, watching the lights of the whole building dim one by one, until the exterior door of the government building was closed, he got up and prepared to go to the clock tower.

There are no soldiers guarding the entrance of the big clock tower. After working hours, the parts that need to be defended are greatly reduced, and the guard team will be reduced accordingly. A patrol team of no more than 5 people.

Just to count the time, Donald walked in a big circle and came to the bottom of the clock tower. He overestimated the vigilance of these people. Now is the off-duty time, and there are special guards in the government building. As for this clock tower, does it have any special meaning besides telling the time?

simply nobody paid much attention to the situation around the clock tower.

The locks used on the gates of the bell tower seem to be of the oldest type. A piece of iron is fixed with iron nails in the part where the wooden gate is connected to the door frame. This is probably a symbolic A little bit of protection, the rusted lock was just hanging there, wrapped in circles of iron chains. It looked firm, but it actually failed to last for more than 5 years under Donald’s Invisible Servant. second.

The chain and lock were reattached, Finger slipped through the gap, and Donald followed.

Accurately speaking, the entire clock tower is divided into fourth layer, the height is equivalent to the government building next to it, but the internal area may be the size of 3 bathrooms.

The first floor belongs to the ground floor. From the outside, you can see the red tiles with some yellow stones. There are no windows. When you enter the interior, you will find all kinds of debris piled in the corners. , fairly neat, not much dust, it seems to have been cleaned regularly.

The second layer is the highest layer of the bell tower, with opaque large glass windows on all sides. The cleanliness here is not as good as the first layer.

“Sure enough, this kind of thing happens everywhere.”

Donald turns on Spirit Vision, although he doesn’t think the Grants will be stuffing important things here, But to be on the safe side, I chose to search it again.

Unsurprisingly, there is no gain, continue to the upper floor, the Third Layer is where the bronze bell of the clock tower is located, and you can see that it will be sounded every specific time, nearly two meters away tall bronze bell.

all around The walls are no longer masonry or windows, but hollow discs with a diameter of about 1 meter on four sides, which is to ensure that the sound can be transmitted to the maximum extent.

And in those places where the walls hide, it is a combination of a large number of gears and small mechanical devices.

Donald this time chose not to wait, but went straight up the stairs to the top floor. This is where the clock dial is located. The height is nearly 20 meters above the ground. Fortunately, Donald’s fear of heights is not serious. , otherwise it would be a bit difficult to get here.

The entire top floor is surrounded by large clock discs, and behind it are all kinds of mechanical devices. With the rotation of the outer clock plate, the gears inside collide and creak.

“Where…”

Staying in Spirit Vision, Donald hopes to find what he’s looking for soon.

East, West, North, and South, the clock dials on all four sides were all swept away, all gray, and there was no item that resembled the glowing tiles in the Preston Municipal Library.

Not near these dials.

Indeed, it looks like no one will come here, but when there is always a problem with these clock dials, as the big clock tower next to the government, it is usually a time teller in the nearby area, and most of the people have already I am used to judging the time by the sound of the big clock tower.

Regular adjustment and repairs are definitely not less, various parts are inevitably disassembled and loaded, and the treasure is naturally found between the gaps between these gears and the clock disc.

So where is it that they would never touch?

Donald’s eyes went up, all he could think of was the real top of the bell tower, the obelisk top.

“Finally found you.”

Familiar and weird symbols, the two hidden places of the Preston Municipal Library have the same emblem, which should be left by the Grants. Donald’s tip.

This time the hiding place was on the inside of the zenith obelisk. Donald wasn’t tall enough, so he could only go back to the first floor to find a few wooden boxes and stack them up. He didn’t use the Invisible Servant.

Because the layer of light purple fluorescent light in the Preston Municipal Library will only dim and fail when his hand touches it, it is very likely that the self-destructing array set up by the Grant couple has arrived. In this step, if the inheritance is destroyed in order to save some energy, Donald may have regrets in his intestines.

Step on the wooden box, support the internal measurement of the obelisk with both hands, find the correct position, and hold the shiny brick with the left hand, this time there is no need to resort to other external forces, when The moment Donald’s palm was pressed, the masonry was embedded in it, and some limestone rustled from the upper position.

In Donald’s sight, a group of red light objects fell from the innermost position of the spire, and he quickly extended the hand to continue.

A box wrapped in white cloth, at least how it looks and feels.

Get down from the wooden box, use the light behind the clock dial specially set up to illuminate the external pointer, lift off the white cloth on the outer layer, the inside is a simple box without any locks, metal blocks The final key should be useless here.

A dark golden ring with a small skeleton skull in the center of the ring face, surrounded by a circle of special inscriptions, Donald thought it was a dark prop, similar to Bone Rare Items such as Spirit Plate, but under the observation of Spirit Vision, there are golden ripples around the ring, which has never been seen before.

A book that fills up most of the wooden box. I picked it up from the bottom with my fingers and turned a few pages. Most of the pages have special symbols and large paragraphs of handwritten text. .

“Inscription: Swift… Inscription notes?”

I found a random paragraph, written in the current common language of Ryan Empire, and the handwriting is very elegant. Better than Donald, a college student.

Skill 5 needs to be learned, referring to this book?

Inscription carving is indeed a rare craft. Give a man a fish is not as good as teaching a man to fish. It seems that the things that the Grant couple left for their predecessors are also carefully selected.

“Then what’s this?”

Place the ring in the palm of your hand, the wrapped 3, the learned 4, the unpleasant 6, which one is the right one? ?
