Chapter 1630

"The barren city is actually the old urban area of paladova." Alan explained.

The overall style of urban architecture in Yirong country is full of reinforced concrete and ubiquitous steam equipment. It is clearly separated from other countries.

However, not all Italian cities are like this.

In fact, the development of Yirong country has undergone such a rapid change in recent 100 years, and many cities still retain the style of the previous era. The buildings of the previous era were full of decadent religious flavor. The king of Yirong strongly asked all cities to change. As a result, many cities have two distinct architectural styles.

One side is the newly built reinforced concrete forest, and the other is the Byzantine style ancient style.

This is the case in paladova, whose urban area is divided into new towns and barren cities. The new town is the main urban area at present, and the people of paladova basically live here. The barren city is the former urban area, which is almost deserted. Only a few vagrants and some poor people live here.

"It was in the alternation of old and new reforms." Angel suddenly realized that no wonder the vast majority of cities in Yirong country are often covered with smog.

After hearing Allen's explanation, angel asked, "is there anything special in the barren city?"

Alan shook his head in a low voice: "no, I walked around the deserted city and it was very calm. I occasionally saw some crimes, but as the young man said, it was inevitable that it was full of tramps and poor people."

"However, it is impossible for my sister to default on the young man's tour guide fee. She must have disappeared after entering the barren city... I wonder if she met any enemies in the barren city."

That's why Allen came to find Angel.

Now that she knows where Irene disappeared, Irene may have met the enemy in the desolate city. Then where she disappeared, even if there were no signs of battle, there must be remnants of energy fluctuations. If it happened recently, Allen could check it himself, but now more than a month has passed, he can only place his hope on angel.

Alan looked at angel with praying eyes.

Angel thought for a moment. He could go to paladova, but at least he needed to know the details.

Angel: "since there are still people in the wasteland, has anyone seen Irene? If there was a battle in the wasteland a month ago, someone would have seen or heard it?"

Allen: "there was no battle, but a tramp said he had seen Irene."

Allen paused as he spoke, as if thinking about something. After a while, he said, "the tramp's eyes twinkled and full of lies. I was eager to find my sister and didn't distinguish it."

In short, Alan didn't know if what the tramp said was true.

"What did he say?"

"He said that when he slept in a deserted building that day, he saw a woman with good temperament and went to the direction of the parish."

parish? Angel looked at Alan suspiciously.

Allen explained: "there are also various areas in the barren city. The parish is the area of ancient religious activities. There are churches and chapels in it. I also went to see it. There is no trace of Irene, so I guess the tramp is lying."

Allen offered gold coins as a reward for looking for Irene. The tramp wanted to lie for money.

When Angel heard this, he understood. After Irene entered the barren City, it was like the world evaporated.

If wasteland is really Irene's missing place, there may be energy residue there. It seems that the specific situation still needs to go to the barren city.

"The barren parish of paladova?" Just as angel was going to visit paladova first, a voice of doubt sounded.

Angel and Allen looked around, talking to one of the two witches who had been eating melons silently.

Moreover, she is Charley, the witch apprentice that Alan hates very much.

"Charley, do you have any doubts about this place?" Angel noticed that Charley's tone was confused, her eyes were not focused, and she seemed to be remembering something.

Greya also looked at Xia Li curiously. She was just bored and planned to listen to gossip for fun. She took Xia Li by the way. Does Charley know anything else?

After a while, Xiali recovered and saw that everyone was watching her. She was a little stunned: "what are you looking at me? Did I say anything?"

Xiali didn't look like a disguise. It was obvious that she had muttered it unconsciously just now.

Alan said angrily, "you were questioning the barren City parish just now."

"Did I say that?" Xiali whispered to herself. Seeing Alan's face, she thought for a moment and said, "well, maybe it's because what you just said reminds me of something. I unconsciously repeated the place name."

"You think of something? What?" Asked angel.

Xia Li shrugged: "it's not a big event, but some time ago... Well, maybe one day a few years ago, I was invited to perform in the capital of Yirong country."

"What are your eyes?" Charley looked at Allen crossly. The latter's face was full of disgust: "I'm the most famous magician in Yirong country. I started touring before I entered the wizard world."

Alan whispered, "what magician, fraudster?"

Xia Li didn't care about the title of fraudster, but picked her eyebrow: "you can say so."

"Anyway, when I went to perform in Yirong capital, I saw a reward list posted on the bulletin board. The content of the reward is that there was an appalling big case in the barren City parish of paladova. I hope someone can provide clues."

A reward list from a mortal city a few years ago? In angel's view, it should have nothing to do with Irene's disappearance.

However, as an extraordinary person, when Ellen tells this story, Charley will think of an insignificant reward list at that time, which may also be a kind of... Omen.

With this in mind, angel continued to ask, "what's the big case?"

"I remember what the disappearance was. There were more than 20 people in a religious church who disappeared overnight."

"Disappearances? Religious churches?" Alan's ears pricked up as soon as he heard 'missing'.

"Yes, it seems that it's a very small and unpopular religion. More than 30 people believe in it. As a result, so many people disappeared overnight, so the remaining budding believers withdrew. At that time, some people said that it was the worship of a cult that led to the Revenge of evil gods. Others said that it was unreliable to take them to the kingdom of God. If there were any abnormalities, sky Machinery City would certainly take them Forget it. "

"I think it has nothing to do with your sister's disappearance."

After listening to Charley's story, Allen also felt that this case had nothing to do with Irene. He still felt that Irene might have met some extraordinary people in paladova.

During that time, many players who participated in the new star competition rushed to sky Machinery City from all over the world. Maybe some of them did it.

When Allen thought so, angel suddenly looked at Charley and asked in a strange tone, "what did you just say... Budding believers? What does that mean?"

Xia Li was stunned: "that's what those people called it at that time. It seems that the religion that those people believe in is what sprouts. They call themselves sprout believers."

"Sprout... Sprout..." angel whispered, with a halo in his eyes.

"Why, is there anything wrong with this sprout?" Greya noticed that angel's face was solemn and seemed to be wrong.

Angel shook his head and looked a little gloomy: "nothing, I just thought of one thing. I need to confirm it."
