Dragon Zero - Chapter 2279
In An Moxidu tonight, no one can fall asleep. Some people think that it is always safe here, but now it is not safe anymore. Some people use alcohol to relieve their worries, and some people chat with three or five friends all night long until their eyes are red. The streets and alleys are full of refugees fleeing the war. They have nowhere to live. They are full of hotels and have nowhere to live. They have to sleep on the streets.
The toilet in the basement tavern stinks, and the tavern is crowded with people who can’t sleep. With such a good business, the boss is not happy. Two days ago, he wanted to close the store and go to other provinces to hide, but his child who had just turned one month couldn’t stand the long-distance running, but he didn’t expect that bad news suddenly came out in the afternoon-Ahan is coming.
For the Demon Moon people, this should have been good news, at least that’s what everyone thought at first. The ability of the Great Sorcerer Ahan has solved the difficulties on the border more than once, and it has been the case before. But then there was a rumor that suddenly spread, Ahan brought more than one hundred and dozens of red-robed archmages, and used the power of the forbidden magic of ‘the bell of the empire’, and this forbidden magic will bring to an unstoppable death.
The guests in the tavern were worried about this, but some villagers from outside the city were puzzled by this. A farmer scratched his head and asked an unfamiliar drinker across the table: “‘Imperial Bell’ I’ve heard people mention it a few times. What kind of power does it have that makes everyone so scared? Even if it’s terrible, our empire’s bell The army won’t be used against us rural farmers and your city people, right?”
The drinker on the opposite side thought and said, “Of course it won’t be used against us ordinary civilians.”
The farmer was puzzled: “Then why are we afraid?”
The drinker couldn’t tell, but said, “Everyone is panicking, and it seems that there will be some terrible consequences, but everyone’s consequences are different, and I don’t know which one is true.”
A man who had no place to sit next to him heard their conversation and said: “Hmph, do you know what the consequences will be?” He glanced at the crowded people in the tavern: “The consequence is that all of us here will die, one of them will die. There’s no escape!”
The farmer was surprised: “It’s really so scary? Can you tell us what’s going on, what kind of magic is ‘The Bell of the Empire’?”
The man squeezed the wooden big beer mug in his hand and sat down and said: “The ‘bell of the empire’ has a total of thirteen rings, and each ring will cause harm to the flesh and blood beings who hear it. This is not the most terrifying, The scary thing is that after these bells enter the human body, they will stay in the body and move back and forth.” He picked up the dice cup on the table: “Like the dice that were shaken in the dice cup, it kept vibrating in the body, destroying it. Every organ and tissue in your body. People who hear the thirteen bells will be tortured by the thirteen bells and then explode. After the explosion, the bells will jump out. If there are people nearby, the bells will be transmitted. In their ears, into the body to create new concussions.”
The drinkers at the table could not hear it. The farmer said, “Isn’t this contagious like an infectious disease?”
The man took a sip of yellow beer and nodded: “It’s like an infectious disease, and it won’t decrease with the number of infections, and it’s not just one pass at a time. According to each person’s physique, after listening to the thirteen bells The time of death after the sound is also different. You may not know how terrible it is. For example, someone will die after five minutes, ten minutes, twenty minutes after listening to the thirteen bells, but some people are in good health and can be tortured. For a few days or ten days. For such a long time, he will definitely go to someone for treatment, but if he goes to a new city and he dies at this time, the sound in the body will spread around, making this city People in the city are being infected by the sound one after another. So think about it, what are the consequences.”
After everyone listened, they couldn’t drink the beer, and they all turned pale with fright: “It’s too scary, why is there such a magic?”
Someone asked, “Would it be the same if I hadn’t heard all the bells?”
The man shook his head: “If I haven’t heard the thirteen bells, I won’t die violently, but it will be worse than death.”
Everyone wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but their hearts suddenly raised again: “How do you say?”
The man said: “I haven’t heard the thirteen tones, the bells in the body will not resonate and explode, but they will still vibrate back and forth in the body, causing people to suffer for a lifetime. , sometimes dizzy, normal walking is a luxury, only to be tortured by endless pain. The specific severity is directly related to the number of sounds of the initial bell. As far as I know, the longest recorded existence of the bell in the body is more than For forty years, doctors have tried many methods during the treatment period, but they could not guide the sound harmlessly from the patient’s body, and could only find a way to relieve the pain of the subject. The ‘bell of the empire’ can penetrate all flesh and blood and kill them Spread between pigs, cows, horses, sheep, etc., wherever you go, the bell will spread to where, this is the terrible thing about the ‘bell of the empire’. Now think about it, even if the bell rings outside the city , it will still spread into the city.”
Someone said, “Can’t I plug my ears and use magic to block the transmission of sound?”
The man said, “Is it useful to block the ears? Let me tell you, the Central Empire has already done an experiment. Even if you use space magic to completely isolate the experimental body, although it can reduce the transmission of the bell, it can still affect the creatures in the space. But in a real war, who can immediately escape from the sphere of influence of the bell and use space magic to isolate the inner three layers and the outer three layers? Even if someone does, there are very few such people, and a large number of soldiers , Warcraft will still become the carrier of the ‘imperial bell’.”
The people around this table were too frightened to speak, smoking cigarettes, worrying and worrying.
Some people questioned what he said: “The content you said is not made up, I have never heard similar rumors.”
The man smiled wryly and sighed: “These words are indeed too sensational, and it is no wonder that no one wants to believe them. You can imagine how the empire could advertise the sequelae of this forbidden magic, which would only lead to opposition and turmoil. Everyone. Everyone knows that the ‘Empire’s Bell’ is scary and that it can kill countless people, but the most terrifying thing is that it is uncontrollable. The ‘Doomsday Judgment’ in the south is a disaster that comes directly, although the power is huge, with the power of destruction , but in the end it is the things and creatures within the range that are destroyed, and there are always people who find a space to survive in the disaster of destruction. And the ‘imperial bell’ is a real plague of sound, once used, it may lead to out of control, and finally the empire will I have to give up the entire Bell area and everyone in Anmos.” He said that he was scared, the sadness and fear in his eyes could not be concealed, and he could only drink a big sip of beer to suppress the shock.
Someone at the scene was still suspicious and asked, “Who are you and why do you know this? If what you said is true, why didn’t you run away?”
The man snorted and sighed again: “I can’t say the source of my news, I can only say that this source is absolutely reliable, believe it or not, you can believe it. , I will leave here immediately, without hesitation.”
With the word of mouth of the tavern staff, the uneasy atmosphere was also passed on. At first they were just worried about whether An Moxi could hold it, if the city was broken, the Gripen Army would slaughter the city, and the ‘bell of the empire’ would ring. After the sound will not affect the city. But when they learned the true face of ‘The Bell of the Empire’, fear kept roaring in their hearts, and then the news spread rapidly in the Western Capital City.
In fact, this man didn’t have any reliable sources. All he knew was from a friend’s mouth, and his ‘friend’ just paid a sum of money to spread the news. Of course, the authenticity of this news is basically true. It comes from the intelligence collection of the Holy Griffin Empire for many years, and it is only a little untrue. There is a marginal diminishing effect of the ‘bells of the empire’. The bells will weaken in each conduction process until they lose their conduction properties. This is a very long process that requires countless stacks of life.
