Chapter 54 The Most Important Place

Soon the three Byrnes learned that the knight turned out to be a sheriff's deputy responsible for maintaining law and order in the city.

At the same time, they also discovered one thing: the gaps in history are not the real world after all. No one other than the Sheriff's deputy would communicate with them, and they were all ghost-like beings that were sometimes real, sometimes illusory.

After the Sheriff's deputy learned that Byrne and others were doctors living in seclusion nearby, they were still vigilant and defensive, and even said that they would find a prophecy spellcaster to test whether they were hostile.

The spellcaster appeared out of thin air and then cast prophecy spells on the three of them.

The answer, of course, is no hostility.

All three of them saw the prophecy spellcaster then disappear and float away, as if he had never existed.

And the sheriff's deputies and the people around them were indifferent.

It is a fictional world after all, and they all know this deep down.

"Very good, everyone in the Flame tribe needs to contribute to their own race."

Only then did the sheriff's deputies seem to let down their guard and allow them to treat sick people in the city.

"Healing" type spellcasters are not among the eight major types of spellcasters, and are even rarer than those of the prophecy type.

Among the eight main types of spellcasters, only the "change" type of spellcaster may have some healing spells.

The power Erin wields makes her an instant darling of the town.

But interacting with those virtual and real projections had no sense of reality at all. She didn't feel that she was treating real humans at all.

The three of them didn't care about this kind of thing at all, they just looked for the Shadow Door as much as possible.

Most spiritual islands are places where emotions gather, and they are often historical gaps that have experienced disasters. They know very well that the time they can stay is limited.

Where is the "most important place"?

The three of them had been thinking about this issue, so they stayed in the entire city. This ancient city has a clear architectural style, with a large number of white buildings with flame marks on them.

They could see imaginary and real figures singing and dancing, and they could also see the figures cursing the people of the Empire. Almost everyone was extremely resentful of the Empire.

The trio never found anything, and the last conceivable target was the Sheriff's deputy's home.

They could only go to the sheriff's deputy's house together. It was a house made of white marble. It didn't look extravagant but rather simple.

There were many shadowy servants in the house, but they did not stop the sudden arrival of the three people.

"Let's find it quickly."

After Byrne said that, he started searching with Irene and Grandma Nada. However, they almost turned the entire house upside down and could not find any trace of the spiritual door.

"Where is the most important place? Should we start with him?"

Byrne was puzzled and felt that the final answer would still fall on the Sheriff's deputy. After all, the numerous figures in the entire spiritual island were incomplete, and he was the only one with intelligence close to that of an average person.

Granny Nada observed the virtual and real projections around her and couldn't help but sigh:

"The spiritual world is really amazing. Everything makes me feel very strange. It's like a dream. No, it's even more amazing than a dream!"

Byrne feels the same way deep down in his heart. Indeed, this is a wonderful place that cannot be experienced in reality.

At this moment, Eileen suddenly said:

"Be careful! I sense some malice nearby!"

They immediately became vigilant. Byrne's eyes moved slightly. The smell residue in his "profound memory" allowed him to know in advance who was coming!

"Why are you in my house?"

Without warning, a sheriff's deputy in white armor suddenly appeared near them.

The Sheriff's deputy looked at the three people who suddenly came in with vigilance and fierceness. He put his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist, as if he might attack at any time.

He is the only almost real being on this spiritual island.

Byrne stared at him, thinking that he might as well try asking directly. If he couldn't ask, he would try other methods, so he asked straight to the point:

"Excuse me, where is the most important place in this city?"

"The most important place? You mean, the most important place?"

The Sheriff's deputy suddenly froze for a while, then his face gradually became distorted, he held his head and kept shaking, and said in pain and despair:

"That's it! I couldn't find it at first! If only I could find it earlier!"

"Please, help me! Help me guard the most important place!"

Byrne, Irene, and Granny Nada were all a little surprised. The sheriff's deputy's mental state was obviously very wrong. The regret and despair in his words seemed like the wailing of the dead, or the unwilling roar of the deceased.

They thought the other party was going crazy, but suddenly they saw the Sheriff's deputy gradually disappear.

At this moment, the surrounding scenery gradually changed, and many things in the room seemed to be mixed into a chaotic color, fragmented, and then rebuilt into new scenes.

Suddenly they came to a wall in the city.

"Why are we here?"

Then Byrne discovered that the wall in front of him gradually cracked and shattered, exposing a huge dark cavity.

Suddenly the sounds of fighting and screaming came from all around, and the phantoms of Lorne soldiers in armor appeared on the street. Flames quickly enveloped many buildings and dyed the entire sky bright red. Like a giant beast, the flames ravaged everything, violently The ground is dancing.

Irene was stunned on the spot, her eyes darkened, as if she had returned to the night when Nasir Town was set on fire by the jungle natives.

"I see!"

It suddenly dawned on Byrne that the so-called "most important place" to a sheriff's deputy was the breach in the wall.

Back then, the city was probably broken open from the outside by the enemy's extraordinary beings. Then a large number of Lorne soldiers came in overnight, causing the entire city to fall.

He took a deep breath and said:

"The city they were talking about at the beginning fell to the hands of the Lorne Empire, and tens of thousands of people died or were captured, and they wanted to pay with blood, but it is actually the city we are standing at!"

Now the killings in the gaps in history have begun, and the emotions of everyone in the city are quickly intertwined to the top. The disasters that led to the complete destruction of the city in history are unstoppable.

Suddenly, Erin's "listener" made her realize that there were Lorne soldiers aware of their location.

She hurriedly shouted: "Let's go in quickly! We can't stay any longer! We can't resist the disaster that destroys the entire city!"

The three of them entered the pitch-black hole one after another. After getting to the other side, everything in front of them changed completely.

They were shocked to see the endless white ruins of the city.

The air was filled with an aura of decay and desolation. Most of the walls of the buildings were cracked and damaged, and the wind blowing through the doors made a desolate rustling sound.

This is the central square of the city, where people once gathered. Now there is only an abandoned sculpture and an empty space, covered with dust and gravel, and the fountain in the middle has completely dried up.

Byrne observed calmly, and anyone could tell that it was probably the time after the city was robbed.

In the city that was completely reduced to ruins, there stood a sheriff's deputy with his head lowered in thought, holding a rusty blade and wearing a silver armor full of dents.

He was like a failed hero, his eyes gradually glowed red, and his tone became deeper.

"You guys ask me, why couldn't I find the most important place?"

Granny Nada asked nervously: "What should we do? What should we do now? Something doesn't seem right with him!"

Erin lowered her head and thought, and she planned to carefully consider how to answer.

Byrne stroked the sword blade and flintlock gun at his waist, and based on the knowledge he read in the book, he judged that the next answer was extremely important.

The sheriff's deputy in front of him may turn into a kind of monster at any time, which is the most common mysterious existence in the spiritual world, the "Bound Spirit". They also exist in the Oden continent and possess extremely terrifying malice and power.

If your answer is enough to satisfy it, the other party will dissipate into the most basic spirituality, completely floating in the world, and the three of them will no longer need to fight.

It is naturally the best choice to avoid the battle. After a moment of silence, Byrne bowed and said sincerely:

"You are worthy of your status. You are a true knight, noble, and warrior. You led the Yan people in this city to resist until the last moment of your life. So, please rest."

They originally thought that this answer would avoid a fight and prevent the subconscious projection in front of them from mutating into a "bound spirit", but the words they heard next made the three of them feel their hearts sink.

"No, I am not a warrior at all, because, in fact, I surrendered."

The sheriff's deputy's eyes completely turned dark red, his body gradually twisted and swelled, and a clown-like black iron mask appeared on his face, with expressions of ridicule and madness engraved on it!

"The empire promised me everything! I was the one who dug that big hole!"
