Chapter Thirteen: The Same Day That Was Not Calm

"Dang, dang, dang~~~~~"

Four long bells echoed over the city. For Pavattiga, who is twenty-two hours a day, four o'clock indicates that the afternoon is about to end.

In the magic area, a pointed cylindrical magic tower floating in the air flashed with magical light, slowly falling from the sky, the huge building slowly touched the ground, and did not make any sound. One kilometer away, another magic tower seemed to have received a signal, rising up at the same time as it landed on the ground. The newly rising magic tower was cone-shaped with a golden surface, reflecting dazzling light in the sunset.

It is obviously a huge building, so it is not discussed whether it can fly up or not. The fact that the bottle does not require a foundation at all has almost violated all architectural cognition. However, people have long been accustomed to the world of magic beings, just like the realm of gods, there is no need to be surprised to see what happens in this world.

Passers-by nearby stopped to watch with interest throughout the process. The four magic towers in the magic area of ​​the Rose Capital are rotated to rise and fall every few hours, which has become a scenery in the Rose Capital. Even the residents of this city who have seen countless times are very interested in watching again, let alone travelers coming and going here.

"Buzz,buzz,buzz."

In the middle of the city, the heart of the city suddenly flashed three times, and then changed from pure white to mysterious lilac. Although ordinary people cannot do it, those professions who can sense energy can clearly detect it. While the color changes, the protective power emitted by the heart of the city becomes stronger.

"Dang,dang,dang,dang".

Four more bells.

In the craftsman's area, the stove with black smoke from the chimney began to go out one after another. The jingle that seemed to be endless during the day gradually disappeared. The flying sawdust and wood chips were reunited, the scissors were closed, the leather rack was covered, and even the herbs and glass bottles that emitted a strange smell were taken back into the cabinet.

After four o'clock, the craftsmen's area will be closed. The craftsmen who have worked hard for a day will not work overtime at night. It is time to enjoy life at night.

"Click, click", the huge metal gear in the center of the craftsman area began to rotate slowly. As the gears rotated, a dull mechanical operation sounded underground.

Soon, four arrow towers ten meters high were slowly drilled out from the edge of the circular city wall with a radius of ten kilometers. Each arrow tower had three black and thick gun barrels on the top of each arrow tower facing outside the city. From the gun barrel, the violent crystal energy could be clearly sensed.

Crystal energy cannon, this is the most powerful offensive weapon in the world of Pavatiga. Even ordinary people can operate it freely and exert their extremely powerful power.

Yes, it is extremely powerful. Even the demigods who are at the top do not want to easily strike the high-power crystal energy cannon head-on. After all, even if they are shot, they will be very embarrassed, let alone they are far inferior to their ordinary high-level combat masters.

Such huge power will of course cost equally. The consumption of crystal energy cannons is extremely terrifying. Even with the smallest power, even ordinary gold and even silver-level warriors can easily block the number of crystal stones consumed at one time, which is enough to stop the hearts of two new pastors from a poor church.

What's more, the high-end goods that are rising underground in the city walls are powerful. One shot is shot, which means the consumption of gold coins in units of tens of thousands. For them, it is simply astronomical.

However, there is no need to consume the crystal energy cannon there. It is just a preventive measure, a preventive measure for the arrival of night.

The range of crystal energy cannons is very long. If there is a mage operating, it can even cover ten kilometers away through magical observations, which happens to be where the outer city wall is. A little further away, there are vast farmlands, lonely barracks and sentry towers, and the outside world full of crises.

“Woo~~~~~”

The horn was low and spread out from the edge of the city wall, relaying one by one, all the way to the outer city. As the horn on the outer city wall sounded, the farmers working outside the city put down their farm work as soon as possible and returned to the protection of the city wall with the farm tools.

At five o'clock, the outer city gates closed on time. The soldiers climbed the city wall and began routine daily guard work. The whistle towers on the edge of the city also lit up the beacon fires in turn, waiting for the arrival of night.

As time became late and darker, the world outside the city gradually fell into a deep sleep, but the city was just the opposite, as if it had just woken up.

The street lights are on, and the crystal energy network is emitted from the magic zone, covering the entire city like a spider web along the roads, providing sufficient energy to the crystal energy street lights. Under the incandescent lights, the streets are brightly lit, like a city that never sleeps.

On the commercial street, some shops that were originally open have been closed, but those stores that looked dim during the day have completely come alive. The gorgeous lights, soft music, drifting fragrance, and the bright lights and wine are unbearable to leave.

"Wow, this is so beautiful." The six-year-old girl in a sackcloth holy robe opened her eyes widened and looked at a crystal crystal ball. In the transparent crystal ball, white debris kept falling automatically, falling on the small house model below, making people feel like they were in heavy snow.

"Sister Bishop, can I touch this?" The girl named Helen is one of the six orphans adopted by the Dark Moon Temple one after another. Although the little guy is the youngest, he has always been well-behaved and cute and rarely makes demands like he is now.

"Absolutely not possible." Before the bishop's sister could speak, the most hateful demon in the eyes of the children, who had always followed her, spoke first, "It is best not to touch such a luxurious toy. If you don't get it firmly and break it, do you want to compensate yourself for the two gold coins, or do you want the church to compensate you?"

To be simple, three gold coins are enough for a family of three to live a normal life for a month. Toys with two gold coins are indeed very expensive. Of course, for wealthy families, it is an acceptable price.

"A little bit." Helen turned around and grimaced and stopped looking at the shiny crystal balls. Humph, don't touch them if you don't touch them. What's so great about it? When I grow up and carry forward the church, I will buy ten of them next to the bed, so I won't let you touch them, Humph.

Holding hands with the bishop's sister's hand, the little guy pouted and wanted to leave, but was surprised to find that Sister Lisa did not take a step, and was still standing there, looking at herself with her shiny eyes.

"Helen, you haven't answered your brother's question yet." Lisa's voice was very gentle. Although she was a few years older, she had a motive like a mother. "It's not just Helen, but you are the same. Brother is asking you, who will be responsible if anyone is broken if he doesn't hold it firmly?"

"I'm responsible!" Eddie, who is eight years old, replied loudly for his younger brothers and sisters, "I'll take responsibility for what I do wrong and will not drag down the church and sisters."

"What are you responsible for?"

Lisa's questioning made Eddie stunned. Yes, it's easy to say, but what should I take responsibility for?

"And who will take responsibility for you? They may only be the church, brother and Talina Meria."

"Think about it carefully, my brother actually just wants you to know that no one is an isolated individual, everyone is a family, and everyone forms the Dark Moon Church."

"We are not ordinary people, but people who serve Dark Moon. Every act of ours represents not only ourselves, but Goddess, church, and all of us. Even if you do not admit it yourself, others will see it this way."

"Remember, every behavior of yours, the Darkmoon Church will support you behind your back. Similarly, every behavior of yours must be responsible to the church and others. So think more about the consequences before doing things next time, and think more about the impact it will bring to everyone, so that you can truly be like a close family."

"We understand." The six children nodded vigorously. Orphans always had precocious puberty. Although they didn't understand the truth very well, they had already kept Lisa's words in their hearts.

"Miss Pastor, although I am not very opposed to your teaching of the children, you line up in a row and block the door of my store, which will affect my business."

As soon as I turned my head, I saw the owner of the grocery store standing in front of the door with a bitter face. It seemed that he had been standing for a while.

"Ah, sorry, sorry." The girl smiled awkwardly, "We'll leave right away."

"Wait, the scene where you reasoned to the children just now is so similar to when my eldest daughter taught her younger brothers and sisters. I just looked like I saw her before she got married. Thank you for letting me recall the past, let's give you this little toy. Although I don't know which church you belong to, just treat it as a little bit of my donation."

"Oh?" The girl looked at Shul, then looked at the owner of the shop, smiled thoughtfully, nodded slightly, "thank you to the owner, representing the moon of light, thank you for your generous gift."

"It should be, it should be." The owner pinched the extra gold coin in his pocket, with a simple smile on his face.

"The Lord is kind and pious faith, and will receive the gift of the Lord." Holding the crystal ball, Lisa slowly drew circles on her chest like a true priest, "Goddess is grateful for your piety and loyalty, and through the hands of strangers, he gives you what you desire most."

"Praise the Lord and praise the Dark Moon." The children have long been used to how to respond, lined up in a row and lowered their heads and responded with the same gesture, "Thank you for your kindness, thank your Lord for your gift, may the Dark Moon stay on the sky forever."

"Brother, can you give this to them?" At the angle that the children could not see, the girl stuck out her tongue at Shuer mischievously and showed a sly smile.

"What they gave to you is not for me. If it is for me, I won't give these dead children to play with."

"Hehe, brother, you always do this. Little guys, brother is saying that he agrees (hello!), but let it be with me first, and after you get home after dinner..."
