"Ah, this false picture of unity makes me sick."
"You try to laugh and roar in the face of the abyss, but you don't know that your expression is like a lost dog."
"Because there are more powerful people on your head, so you dare not reveal your true heart."
"It's boring. It's so boring."
"Let me throw stones that can stir up waves again in this boring city."
"In this way, even the other demons have no reason to blame me."
The line of separation -
Jones walked slowly in the corridor hidden in the walls of Stein.
With each step, his armor, which was as bright as new, would creak like rusty old armor.
It seems that because of this, he walked very slowly.
But each step was so heavy that other guards could feel the wall shaking slowly.
"Is that the legendary Knight of the earth, Lord Jones?"
Asked a young guard in a low voice, looking at Jones's far away back.
"Well, one of the first seven heroes, and one of the few superpowers who don't have magic talent." The other, with a scar on his face and a higher rank in his leather armor, whispered in a respectful voice, "it is said that even without that armor, he could defeat three ogres in the wilderness with his bare hands."
"It is worthy of being a hero. It's really different from small people like us But I always feel that his armor is too heavy, and his joints don't seem to be very flexible. It's going to get in the way of fighting? "
The guard said with some uncertainty.
"Fool, how do you think Lord Jones got his nickname" Knight of the earth "? It's the relationship between the armor. Although it's very heavy now, it's actually Lord Jones who is training his body. Once the battle begins, that armor will draw strength from the earth, and make Lord Jones more powerful, and will not be tired even after three days and nights of fighting! "
The scarred guard, with a higher rank, murmured at his partner.
"Sure enough, the armor is also "Hero's treasure." The young guard was not upset by the other side's rebuke, but with a trace of longing on his face.
"That's right. It's also made by the great sages. It's the proof and reward of heroes' great achievements. It's one of the magic items" hero's treasure "with powerful power
The scarred guard nodded: "however, because the war is around the corner, the distribution of the hero's treasures has been much faster than before. Moreover, many of the new treasure holders have not achieved as great achievements as the former heroes like Jones. After all, Lord Jones has been able to protect us from the world
"If I can get a hero's treasure, maybe I can become a hero of mankind and leave my own footprints in history."
Exclaimed the young guard, holding his spear.
In fact, the spear can't be used in the corridor, but due to the rules and regulations, and the road section they inspected also included the outside, so they took the spear with them.
"If you reverse the conditions and results, you don't mean that you can become a hero if you get a hero's treasure, but that you can get a hero's treasure only if you become a hero." The older scar guard immediately corrected.
"I know, I also know this kind of thing, but I think so. Instead of giving hero treasure to those who are already very powerful, why not give us such weak people? People who are already very powerful will become more powerful when they get the treasure. However, if we are weak, we can make a strong one. In any case, we are more cost-effective. "
The young guard muttered reluctantly.
But as soon as he finished, the old guard knocked him on the head with his spear.
"If you are stupid, you don't believe it. In addition to the legend, only those heroes who have taken the treasure can fight against the big devil and the devil in the abyss! What do you want to do with that? And the devil
"I'm just talking about it. Don't be angry..."
Seeing that the other side was angry, the young guard could only explain with a smile.
After a pause, he said, "but I heard that among the heroic treasures that the great sage has not yet given out, there is one of the strongest among them And that treasure was stolen two days ago, so it was under martial law all the time. "
"Hum, each of the treasures of the heroes is very powerful, and its power and effect are comparable. How can there be such a saying as" the most powerful ". What's more, the guardian of the hero's treasure is the great sage! Even ordinary demon king can't steal things from him. It must be a false report! If you don't learn it well, you will always believe this kind of gossip. I'll beat you up! "
Leaving aside the young guard who was about to be beaten up, Jones had already arrived at the door of a shabby house built against the wall and slammed the door gently.As a result, the fingers wrapped in thick iron plates easily knocked holes in the door.
He coughed awkwardly.
"Aesop, the shift time is coming soon..."
After a while, there was a stuffy "door is not locked" answer.
Jones reached out and pushed the whole door down. The pound fell to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
After that, Jones went through the gate and entered the dilapidated house, which was full of all sorts of things. If people came in, they might think it was just a garbage dump.
However, Jones knew that these things, which looked like rubbish, were actually magic materials that were hard to find.
Get away from the one that's coming Well, it was probably salted fish and other air dried items that Jones walked into the inner room.
Different from the messy environment outside, the inner room is very clean. Numerous thick books are orderly stacked on dozens of bookshelves, making the whole space filled with the smell of ink and paper.
"Can't you change your armor? Its damned voice interferes with my mind
It looks like a man sitting on a velvet chair with a pale green velvet pen.
He's Aesop, a great magician.
"This is a hero's treasure given by the great sage." Jones knocked on his breastplate and made a sound of Kuang: "it's my honor. How can it be removed like this?"
"Well, only a rusty head like you can make a treasure like that pile of medals in your house, and it's worthless except for showing off."
Aesop stroked and practiced the ring on his index finger, and the quill in his hand disappeared in an instant: "what I pursue is a higher goal The truth in these treasures
"Oh."
Jones, who had long been used to the other party's attitude, ignored Aesop's passionate speech and agreed without salt. Then he took off his helmet and planned to hang it on the coat rack. As a result, the shelf sniffed the smell of the helmet in a very humanized way, and then ran away to the back of the bookshelf without knowing it
"Damn it, can't you get a normal coat hanger?"
Jones, who still had his helmet in his hand, was stunned for a moment before he said angrily, "I hate this kind of personalized coat hanger."
"If the alchemist who specializes in alchemy hears you say that about me, that alchemist who has a certain degree of thinking ability will definitely be killed."
Aesop replied coldly.
"Let them face me
Jones put his helmet under his armpit, and his empty right hand made a vigorous movement: "I can fight ten of those bean sprouts!"
"I think you came to me today, not just to talk about bean sprouts?"
Aesop sighed and looked up from a thick magic book.
"And it's nearly twenty minutes before the shift change. You're too early."
"The clock of time has been stolen." Jones said solemnly, with a stiff face.
Aesop stopped.
"Is it the heroic treasure that touches the law of time and can even trigger miracles?" He asked in disbelief.
"It is."
Jones nodded. "And not only that, there seems to be someone who can preach about it, and now there are rumors in Stein."
"I don't think it's very likely that anyone in the salvation army will do something to" swallow the clock. ". After all, they can still distinguish the priorities Aesop frowned slightly.
"The problem is outside the Salvation Army..." Said Jones at once.
"You mean the mercenaries and the auxiliary soldiers."
Aesop's brow frowned more tightly: "that's a bit of trouble."
"Besides, I don't think the salvation army is a monolithic one."
"At least I never thought that St. George and Sandler would betray the salvation army."
"Sandler has his own integrity, and it's not a good idea for him to join the wandering funeral. And St. George's head is full of the same old ideas as you. It's not surprising that after witnessing the Salvation Army's violation of his chivalry, he will betray the Salvation Army... "
Aesop was extremely calm to analyze: "and they are both people who value honor and human race more than their own lives. If it is not manipulated by spiritual magic, it must be that their present position is more beneficial to human beings and their own ideas, that's all. "
"Even so, betrayal is not to be praised."
Jones clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "if I knew where they were..."As soon as the voice dropped, the guard's voice came from the door.
"Mr. Jones, a villager has found traces of former heroes Sandler and St. George!"
