The journey after that was smooth without any accidents, and Doyle did not look at the two people who were hugging and playing in the car, sometimes sweating and gasping for breath.

The carriage arrived at Liuguang City at sunset. After a whole day of traveling, everyone was exhausted both physically and mentally.

Many people lined up at the quaint city gate to welcome the return of Mekalos.

Since there was no prior notification, many people mistook the two carriages nearby for her entourage.

This is good. When Mei Carlos left, he deliberately avoided being seen. If he were alone now, it would definitely arouse suspicion.

It just so happened that the origins of Erica and her group were difficult to explain, so it might as well be that they just got away with it.

"Everyone must be very sleepy after the long journey. Please follow me." After getting off the carriage, the first person I saw was a beautiful woman with delicate features and a gentle and polite voice.

She looked very young, and if she hadn't met her before, Manjushage would probably have thought the person in front of her was a teenage girl.

"Thank you for the hard work, Rujing." Meikalos seemed to be concerned about something else: "How is the thunderstorm? Is the Gospel District okay?"

"Everything goes well, Lord Meicarlos. We'll tell you the details after you've had a good rest tomorrow. It's just some routine reports, it's nothing serious." A relaxed and bright smile appeared on her mirror-like fair face.

When they met at the ball before, Manjushage felt that Rujing had the demeanor of a very professional woman, otherwise how could she be so close to the leader of the Knights who always worked so hard?

Plus, she's very interesting and pretty, so the impression she left was naturally deep.

However, Manjushage was really tired. After saying hello symbolically, she came to the residence arranged by Rujing, dived directly into the soft and comfortable quilt, and slept until dark.

When she woke up again, it was already noon. Her head was empty and her stomach was empty.

Rujing was very considerate and brought meals to her early in the morning, waiting for her to wake up.

"Where's Carlos, is she okay?" It's more relaxing to be in a familiar place, you can eat and chat at the same time.

If it were somewhere else, Lycoris would probably chew a piece of bread for a long time without saying a word.

"Lord Meicarlos is too tired and needs to rest for a while, so Miss Manjushage, I will arrange your next itinerary in Liuguang City." Rujing said in a dignified tone.

After that, she added, "Erica and her team have already started working."

"In that case, thank you for your hard work." After finishing her breakfast - actually lunch - she prepared to get down to work.

She has not forgotten that the purpose of this trip is to collect the scattered artifacts.

That was his mother's relic and also an important item to help Luo Shiqi recover his memory.

There are seven holy objects, but now Manjushage only has one.

Among them, the magic sword was sealed in the library of the royal capital, waiting for them to retrieve it.

In addition, there is a scabbard hidden in a bell tower in Liuguang City.

"The Holy Sound Bell Tower has existed since the founding of Liuguang City and has a very long history." On the way to the bell tower, Ru Jing took the initiative to share relevant knowledge with Manjushage and others.

The clock tower is located in the Gospel District, the core and oldest town of Liuguang City.

Almost all the buildings here are left over from the early days of Liuguang City. They have never been repaired in four hundred years, but they are more solid than any other house.

And all this is thanks to this Holy Sound Bell Tower.

It is said that every time the bell rings, a surge of magical power will sweep across the entire Gospel District like a surge, repairing damage, removing filth, and even awakening the beauty deep in people's hearts.

Because of this, as the city where the riots first broke out, the Gospel District was the one that suffered the least damage and even avoided a lot of reconstruction work.

It is precisely because of such magical effects that people claim that the bell tower actually hides a holy spirit who brings happiness to the world.

But for some unknown reason, the Holy Spirit is unwilling to appear before people.

However, rumors are just rumors after all. The bell tower in front of us is completely different from the precious building in the legend that is always elegant and sacred with endless visitors and constant incense burning.

The dilapidated outer wall, the desolate front yard, and not even someone sweeping the floor made it look like a dangerous building that could collapse at any time.

"It feels different from what I imagined." Lycoris radiata examined the clock tower from top to bottom.

The first impression it gives is that it is dilapidated, old and outdated, and it does look like an ancient building that is quite old.

Moreover, as a landmark building representing the entire Liuguang City, it does not even have staff for daily maintenance.

Is it okay to put a scarecrow in every abandoned farmland?

"I've only been here for a short time. I heard that the clock tower was very popular decades ago. But after the riots broke out, it gradually became like this." A slightly embarrassed but polite smile appeared on the mirror-like pretty face.

The bells of the Holy Sound Bell Tower seem to have some kind of inspiring effect, which can stimulate people's fighting spirit, give them a glorious vision, urge them to strive, and turn imagination into reality.

The bells of this bell tower are therefore called the sound of prayer.

For hundreds of years, people have come here to pray.

Most of them have some kind of dream for the future, and the bell stimulates this potential motivation with significant effect.

This phenomenon continued until twenty years ago, on the eve of the great riots.

Endless disasters have brought about a chaotic order. The world is full of injustice. People's hearts have long been scarred. Even if the voice of prayer can bring greater hope, it cannot change reality after all.

Unable to answer prayers and meet expectations, the bell tower loses its meaning of existence.

No one visits this once glorious building anymore, and the bell tower, having lost its believers, has gradually become the dilapidated state it is today.

The previous lord tried to repair the bell tower and use it as a place for prayer and sacrifice.

However, the Holy Sound Bell Tower was like a little girl who rejected outsiders. It crushed all solid materials and left only its broken body.

If this continues, it will become the desolate scene it is today.

However, after entering, Manjushage found that this place was not as bad as she had imagined.

The towering ceiling is inlaid with colorful gems, the walls are carved with exquisite murals, and in front of you is a sculpture of an angel, each wing is carved in detail, as if it were a living creature.

"It's incredible." Lycoris radiata couldn't help but exclaim.

“This sculpture is so lifelike.”

“I felt like I was enveloped in light.”

Doyle and Luo Shiqi also praised it highly.

Only Thesis widened his eyes slightly and opened his mouth but said nothing.

"This is the Angel Hall, the entrance to the bell tower. This sculpture shows the scene when the Supreme Angel Shennong You descends." Ru Jing explained to everyone.

Originally this was just one of many legends, but who would have thought that the Supreme Angel actually appeared in the war against the dragon a year ago.

For people like Manjushage who have personally experienced the war, the sacred feeling brought by the sculpture is quite impactful.

Luo Shiqi couldn't help but ask if he could touch it.

"Of course you can, but be careful. After all, this is a relic from four hundred years ago—"

Before he could finish his words, the part that Luo Shiqi touched cracked.

"I'm sorry!" He quickly let go of her hand and hid behind Manjushage, but he didn't seem to feel ashamed for destroying the cultural relics. Instead, he was filled with fear and trembled: "There seems to be someone inside!"
