Chapter 132 Relics of the Bell Tower
Dang~Dang~Dang~
The bell rang at exactly eight o'clock, and lights lit up behind the clock dial on the top of the Big Bell Tower, and people rushed out one after another at the entrance of the Puston Municipal Government next to it.
The day's work is over.
Donald sat at the government gate with a book, watching the lights of the entire building dim down. He didn't get up and prepare to go to the bell tower until the outside door of the government building was closed.
There are no soldiers guarding the gate of the Big Bell Tower. After working hours, the part that needs to be defended is greatly reduced, and the guard team will also reduce its staff accordingly. Apart from the several posts near the gate, the remaining one is a patrol team with no more than 5 people.
Just calculating the time, Donald went around in a big circle and came to the bottom of the bell tower. He overestimated the vigilance of these people. It was time to get off work, and there were special guards inside the government building. As for this bell tower, is there any special significance besides reporting the time?
No one paid special attention to the situation around the clock tower.
The locks used in the bell tower's door looked the oldest. A piece of iron sheet was fixed with iron nails in the part connecting the wooden door to the door frame. This was probably a symbolic protection. The lock, which was already covered with rust, was even hung there in a filling manner, wrapped around the iron chains, looking firm, but in fact, it was unable to hold on for more than 5 seconds under Donald's invisible slave.
After hanging the chain and lock again, Finger drilled into the gap, and Donald followed.
To be precise, the entire bell tower is divided into four floors, with a height equivalent to the government building next to it, but the internal area may be the size of three bathrooms.
The first floor belongs to the bottom floor. From the outside, you see red tiles combined with some beige stones. There are no windows. When you enter, you will find all kinds of debris piled up in the corners of the walls. They are quite neat and there is not much dust. It seems that they have been cleaned regularly.
The second floor is the highest-height floor of the bell tower, with large opaque glass windows built on all sides, so the tidyness here is not as good as the first floor.
"Sure enough, this is the case everywhere."
Donald turned on his spiritual vision. Although he did not think that the Grants would stuff important objects here, he chose to search it for safety.
Unexpectedly, there was no gain. Keep going up the upper floor. The third floor is the location of the bronze bell of the bell tower. At this point, you can see that the bronze bell will be ringed at a specific time, nearly two meters high.
The surrounding walls are no longer bricks or windows, but hollow discs with a diameter of about 1 meter on all sides, which are to ensure that the sound can be spread to the maximum extent.
And where those walls are covered, there is a combination of a large number of gears and small mechanical devices.
Donald chose not to wait this time, but went straight to the top floor along the stairs. This is where the clock dial is located, which 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.
There are large clock dials on all sides of the top floor, and behind them are all kinds of mechanical devices. As the external clock dial rotates, the gears inside creak.
“Where…”
Keeping his spiritual vision state, Donald hopes to find what he wants as soon as possible.
The clock dials on all sides were swept through the east, west, south, and four sides, and the gray was everywhere, and nothing was seen similar to the luminous tiles in the Puston Municipal Library.
Not near these clock dials.
Indeed, it seems that no one will come here, but there are always problems with these clocks. As the big bell tower next to the government, it is usually a timer in the nearby area. Most people are used to judging time based on the sound of the big bell tower.
Regular adjustments and repairs are certainly not absent. Various parts are inevitably disassembled and filled. Putting the treasure between these gears and the clock disc can naturally be discovered.
So what are they never touched?
Donald's eyes were up, and all he could think of was the real top floor of this bell tower, the obelisk top.
"finally found you."
The familiar weird symbols, both hidden places in the Puston Municipal Library, should be the prompt left by the Grants to Donald.
This time, the hidden place was on the inside of the zenith square stone tower. Donald was not tall enough, so he could only return to the first floor and found a few wooden boxes to stack them. He did not use the invisible slave.
Because the layer of lilac fluorescent in the Puston Municipal Library will only dim and fail when his hands touch it. It is very likely that the self-destruction array set up by the Grants and his wife has reached this point. If the inheritance is destroyed in order to save some effort, Donald may have regretted it.
Stepping on the wooden box, holding the inner test of the square stone tower with both hands, finding the right position, and holding the shiny brick and stone with the left hand. This time, there was no need to use other external forces. When Donald's palm pressed on, the brick and stone was embedded in, and some lime fell down a little higher.
Immediately afterwards, a red object fell from the innermost position of the spire in Donald's sight, and quickly reached out to continue.
A box wrapped in white cloth, at least it looks and feels so from the surface.
Get off the wooden box and use the light specially set up behind the clock dial to illuminate the external pointer, and the white cloth on the outer layer is opened. The inside is a simple box without any locks. The key formed by the metal building blocks should not be used here.
A dark golden ring is a small skull with an extremely exquisitely carved skull in the center of the ring face, and a circle of special inscriptions are engraved around it. Donald thought it was a dark prop, similar to a strange thing like a bone spirit plate, but under the observation of spiritual vision, the ring is filled with golden ripples, which are unprecedented.
A book filled with half a wooden box was picked up from the bottom with your fingers, and flipped a few pages casually. Most of the pages had special symbols and large paragraphs of handwritten text on them.
"Inscription: Swift...Inscription notes?"
I just found a piece of content, which was written in the common language of the Ryan Empire. The handwriting was very exquisite, and it was better than Donald, a college student.
The 5 skills that need to be learned refer to this book?
Inscription engraving is indeed a rare craft. It is better to teach people how to fish than to teach people how to fish. The things left by the Grants and his wife for their predecessors seem to be carefully selected.
"So what is this?"
