I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

Before walking out of the portal, Lloyd briefly imagined what the style of the Eternal City would look like.

As the first new city built by mankind at the end of the apocalyptic era, the Eternal City has a history of more than 1800 years, with a long history and rich heritage.

So the picture that Lloyd imagined was probably a white castle made entirely of white marble, only noble, holy, elegant, and mysterious. Every street is history, and every alley is heritage.

As a result, when the four of them, Lloyd, actually came to the Eternal City, they found that this place was really very historical and rich...

There is not even a steam car to be seen on the street, they are still using horse-drawn carriages...

There are no telephone poles or street lights on the roadside, and it seems that oil lamps are still burning...

The various buildings you looked at were all dirty and dusty, and seemed to collapse if you knocked on them casually.

In short, this is a city that is even more dilapidated than the Silent City, making Lloyd feel as if he has traveled through time and returned to the era of the 'Strength of Fighting Stage 3'.

However, he took a closer look at the surrounding buildings and found that strictly speaking they were old and dirty, and a little messy, but they were not really broken, and the structure was actually very well preserved?

The design style of these buildings is also really classical, obviously the style of the old era, and quite 'exotic'. If it is cleaned properly, the streets and greening are improved, it should still be a good place, unlike the one in 0-006 Vision planning is not much different.

In addition, although it is not quiet here, sound can travel through the air normally and be received by the eardrums, but Lloyd feels that there is a strange 'quietness' here?

Or is it some kind of indescribable depression?

A few pedestrians could be seen on the road, but everyone had a straight face and said nothing. They were not curious when they saw Lloyd and other strangers. They just glanced at them coldly and didn't bother to come over to watch, which seemed particularly strange. indifferent.

In short, Lloyd feels that this place has not yet emerged from the apocalyptic atmosphere? There is no vitality and vitality, nor the peace and tranquility of the ancient city.

"Ha~ doesn't it feel like you've gone back to ancient times?"

The bald Bartolo on the side asked.

In fact, there was no Bartolo in last night's itinerary, but this morning when Lloyd was meeting up with Valdez and Lindsay, he happened to bump into him, so he improvised and interfered, saying that he was there. I also know acquaintances in Eternal City and should be able to help.

Of course, Lloyd would not refuse. When it comes to finding people, the more people the better, not to mention that this bald man is still a high-ranking and powerful man.

"Although this is not my first time here, every time I come to this place, I feel very uncomfortable... Even though travel magazines say that this place maintains its past style to the greatest extent, the atmosphere here is really... …”

Lindsay on the side was also frowning, not quite used to the situation here.

Valdes also shook his head and asked:

"Maybe it's just this area? Are other places better? Commercial streets, city centers, etc.?"

"Then you're overthinking it. This damn place is all like this, and it's always been like this."

Bald Bartolo shrugged and gave a brief introduction:

"The entire Eternal City is based on the shelters of previous civilizations and gradually integrated and expanded. It can be regarded as a city put together by several large shelters. Coupled with some strange ideas of the Redemption Saint, this place People seem to be living in the past...and the worst of it.

Therefore, this place has never been a tourist attraction, far inferior to the Brilliant City and the previous City of Joy. "

After hearing this, Lindsay sighed happily:

"Fortunately, we are just here to find someone..."

"Then let's go to the sect here and inquire about it first?"

Lloyd suggested.

So after some inquiries, everyone quickly found a large office of the Eternal Order. Then Lindsay took the initiative to ask for help, while the remaining few people were waiting aside.

Lloyd watched Lindsay's negotiation process from the side and could only say that this guy was a born social phobic. In just a few words, the indifferent manager nodded and agreed to help, and the result was soon obtained.

"I'm back, I'm back. First of all, the good news is that Mr. Jenkins, the gentleman you are looking for, has not been imprisoned by the cult here, which means that at least he has not committed any crime...

But the bad news is that not only are we looking for him, but several of his own friends have also issued missing persons notices to find him, but to no avail. This was already two weeks ago. "

Lindsay shared the news and suggested:

"Should we separate temporarily and go to other places to inquire?"

Lloyd nodded and reminded:

"That's fine, but remember to gather here before six o'clock in the afternoon, otherwise I will open the portal and go back by myself, and you will have to float back in the airship."

So the four of them temporarily separated and divided their forces into four groups. Lindsay was responsible for asking "friends on the road"; Bald Bartolo went to visit his acquaintances here; Valdez and Lloyd went to Jenkins' two houses respectively. Ask everyone.

"I'll go to his current residence and ask about the apprentice he mentioned to me before; this is the original home he mentioned in the seminar before, and was later fucked by his ex-wife..."

Valdes spoke directly into Lloyd's mind, and projected a line of addresses on his retina.

He is also from the [Intellectual] system, so of course he also has this ability.

Then, Valdes took out three metal cigarette cases from his arms and handed them to everyone.

He also said that this box contains a set of small rituals developed and designed by himself. It was made using the knowledge of miniaturization of rituals shared by Lloyd. It can form a certain frequency through several fixed spiritual fluctuations and be used to make some simple contacts. .

For example, frequency 1 means 'everything is normal'; frequency 6 means 'something has been discovered'; frequency 9 means 'help! '

Like some kind of portable transmitter?

Although communication can only be made on a fixed frequency, it is barely enough. As long as you agree on the meaning of each frequency before departure, it will be fine.

Moreover, this frequency can also be used for rough positioning, and the direction and location of the contact can be felt from it.

In short, it is a very practical little invention. Valdez's talent and attainments in ritual science have indeed lived up to Lloyd's long-term optimism.

As for the metal cigarette box on the outside, Valdez explained that it was just a camouflaged package to avoid being noticed. However, Lindsay immediately dismantled it, saying that he was just using waste to save costs.

So the four-person team each carried a pair of cigarette boxes and started the next phase of the operation.

........................

"It seems that Lao Zhan has been rich before..."

Lloyd came to the address given by Valdez and saw a large and luxurious villa in a classical style. He couldn't help but feel a little envious.

When I save some more money, I will also get a set!

He said in his heart, and walked closer to the door, saying hello to the doorman, saying that he was here to inquire about Jenkins.
