After the battle, there was no cheer or excitement, and what filled the air was just a faint sadness and depression.

According to the Black Water Elder who turned into a corpse puppet, the Apocalypse Knights also chased into the Tower of Babel after obtaining the fruit of victory, and also captured several of Geron's companions.

The opening time of the Tower of Babel is fixed. If people can enter, there will naturally be people coming out. Monica and his men entered the Tower of Babel when Goron was unconscious. In addition to being deadly in Blackwater City, they also wanted to "experience" in advance. As soon as they came out, they ran into the Apocalypse Knight head-on, and being caught could only be considered unlucky. The reincarnated and reborn Northland brave Brissado Kennan is also a tough character. Although the soul of "North Wind Queen" Christine Elsa in Monica's body was not completely awakened, they would not have no power to fight back. However, according to the elders of the Blackwater Council, these guys were captured without resisting at all. Perhaps there may be any hidden secrets in this.

Bluetooth looked around his home. Although the battle ended, the destructive trauma caused by the war knights after "liberation" remained. The residents of Hei Shui City, with sad or numb expressions, were restrained by the remains of relatives and friends everywhere, and some people tried to restore the destroyed houses to a state of resident living. Of course, some bastards who took the opportunity to make money in war were indispensable. The biggest and strongest patron saint of Hei Shui City, the body of the Hydra floating alone on the muddy lake, motionless, and whether they were alive or dead. The culprit of all this, the Apocalypse War Knight, did not even leave a body.

Bluetooth took a last look at Black Water City, as if she wanted to imprint this hometown firmly into her eyes. She was familiar with the magic of time and had a vague premonition. Maybe she would never be able to return to this home waiting to be rebuilt. A moment later, the blue-haired girl turned around and looked at Golong and said, "Let's prepare for it. There is no key to the door opening now. We can only wait for the next time the gate of the Tower of Babel will be opened. There is still some time. I want to go back to the Eternal Dragon Cave first and talk to Lord Dragon Mother. You can also walk around to see if you can find clues or something that can be used. By the way, you'd better recruit some helpers. Our future journey will probably be difficult, and it's always good to have more people."

Ge Long instinctively realized that the girl seemed to have grown up a lot in an instant. Her immaturity and tenderness gradually faded away, and replaced by maturity and stability. In a vaguely, the Bluetooth image in Ge Long's eyes gradually coincided with that Dragon Mother. Of course, it was not the fake Dragon Mother at the beginning. Thinking of Dragon Mother, Ge Long couldn't help but think of the crazy man who appeared in a dream or a reality, who looked exactly the same as his giant demon mother. Somehow, Ge Long felt that since he met her, some things seemed to be a little different, such as the previous Douglas incident, Ge Long had instinct to have something to do with that guy. Of course, this may be completely Ge Long's illusion. After all, he could not even be sure whether the crazy liar was Ge Long's pure daydream fantasy.

Goron did not go to the Eternal Dragon Cave with Bluetooth. It was not that he didn't want to go, but that Goron knew that he had to give Bluetooth some time, because he also had the same premonition that after entering this tower, no matter what the result was, he would not return here again.

During the period when the gate of the Tower of Babel was opened again, Ge Long erected a wooden sign in the small square of Hei Shui City. It was written on it in several languages ​​he knew. Originally, his behavior completely violated the rules of Hei Shui City, but now, even the elders of the Hei Shui Council, the only order-maintainer of Hei Shui City, have been wiped out, so naturally no one will come to trouble Ge Long again. After a while, dozens of men, women, young and old of various races surrounded him. Many of these people were covered in blood, their eyes were dull and numb, and they just followed their instinct to join in the fun and prepared to transform their bad mood.

"What do you use to hire us?"

When asked this, Goron poured a bag of messy gadgets on the ground. These were some small magic items and good-quality offerings he had collected recently. They were all prepared by Goron in advance. His tattoo space was limited and he could not hold too many big things. Therefore, although these gadgets were valuable in the outside world, they were not very attractive to the residents of Hei Shui City who had lived on the periphery of the Tower of Babel for the rest of his life. Sure enough, after seeing the "reward" from Goron, most of the onlookers showed disappointment and turned around to leave. Most of the people who did not want to leave were not on the things on the ground, but looked at Goron with an ill-intentioned look. Several even showed a lewd expression and looked up and down at the beautiful boy in front of them. It was not difficult to guess what they wanted to do.

Goron frowned. Although he had thought that recruiting people was not that easy, he didn't expect it to be so troublesome. He didn't care about those idiots with bad intentions. If they really didn't open their eyes to make their own decisions, he could vent his depression and anger. But if he couldn't recruit people, it would give him a headache. Goron already knew what the Tower of Babel is. If he wanted to successfully attack the tower level and catch up with the Apocalypse Knight as soon as possible, it would be absolutely not enough to rely on the power of a few people.

Just as Ge Long secretly considered whether to show his strength, but if he really couldn't do it, he would just kidnap a group of people and force them to form a team with him, a hunchbacked old man suddenly rushed out of the crowd and lay on the pile of fragments thrown by Ge Long, then picked up an inconspicuous stone from it, and looked at it excitedly.

Gelon looked at the stone and his eyes lit up. He deliberately mixed this thing into pieces. The Eye of the Gods was most likely to mobilize the seemingly inconspicuous stone, but he didn't know what value this thing is? How to use it? The key is that Gelon doesn't have the time and experience to study this thing specifically. Instead of putting it in a box, it's better to take it out and see if anyone can know it.

Geron seemed to have good luck. Judging from the old man's appearance, he should know this "stone".

When the old guy picked up the stone and turned around and was about to leave, Ge Long grabbed him, without saying much nonsense, and reached out to grab the stone. The old man had no embarrassing expression on his face. He smiled foolishly and said, "I thought you didn't want this little stone. You see, I'm very old and like the pattern of this stone. Just treat it as a filial piety to the old man and give it to me."

Ge Long was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that the old guy's face would be so thick. Ge Long was not very good at dealing with such people, so he came to keep his constant response. He slapped the stone into his own tattoo, then turned around and ignored this shameless thing. He changed into something that he had tattooed himself. Ge Long was confident that no one could take it away from him.

Seeing what Gelon did, the old man's eyes twitched. His face was full of regret, as if he hated why he ran away as fast as possible without holding a stone, and why he was so stupid that he returned it to Gelon. Of course, the most important thing is, who would have thought that Gelon would have such an unheard of storage.

"Are you planning to bring it into the tower again? I advise you not to do this. Once you die, the entire Blackwater City will suffer great losses."

Goron paused, then turned around, looked at the old man and said, "Whether I will die is my own business, what does it have to do with Hei Shui City? As for entering the tower, it is imperative. The next time the tower gate of the Tower of Babel is opened, it is the time for me to enter the tower. If you really want this thing, why tell me what it is? Then give me a price that satisfies me. Or if you enter the tower with me, you may have the chance to get him from me when."

Geron originally thought that the old man would definitely choose the first method. If the price he offered was really suitable and could improve his strength or hire more "cannon fodder", then he would not mind transferring the stone, assuming of course he knew what this thing was.

But Ge Long didn't expect that the old man struggled and hesitated, and even stomped his feet for a long time in anger, and then stood behind Ge Long honestly, joining Ge Long's team. But no matter how Ge Long asked him, the damn old thing just didn't let go and told Ge Long what the stone was.

What's the use of asking this half-dead old guy? He had to be distracted to take care of him when he was conquering the Tower of Babel. Just as Goron was about to change his words and refuse him to join, a strange thing happened suddenly. The originally dead small square suddenly boiled. Those who were about to turn around and leave rushed back one after another, rushing to enter into a contract with Goron and participate in this action.

After all, Geron had just arrived in this Hei Shui City, so he didn't know the background of this old guy. However, the residents of Hei Shui City were different. Almost all of them knew this old man because although he was a human race with a short lifespan, he was a real old monster who didn't know how long he had lived. Many people here were little kids running around the streets with bare ass. This old man was already as old as he was now. But he never fought, and the strength he exposed was only a third-level intermediate level. He made a living by selling some sometimes useful and sometimes useless medicinal materials for his life. Naturally, no one took it seriously. He would say hello at most when he saw it.

But this old man had an unmatched stunt. As an old monster who had lived for a long time, he was able to identify strange things that no one knew. Especially the Tower of Babel is just the Magic Emperor's magic laboratory, not a special treasure maze, it is mixed with fish and dragons, and everything is available. Sometimes what you are lucky enough to get, the seemingly powerful thing may be just the Magic Emperor's water cup and foot basin, and sometimes the rags picked up randomly may be comparable to magical tools. And this old man is best at identifying these difficult things.

Distinguish things, and never go wrong.

This old guy is greedy for life and fears death. He doesn't know where to hide when there is a fight. He probably will survive even if the entire Hei Shui City is slaughtered. But now, for an inconspicuous stone, he dares to step into the Tower of Babel. What kind of temptation forced him to make such a crazy decision to hang himself and think that he has a long life. The residents of Hei Shui City who know a little about this old man suddenly came up with a natural guess, that is, the things in Ge Long's hands must be worth a lot, and they may not even be a magical tool. Since Ge Long takes it out as a reward for hiring people, as long as he joins his team, wouldn't he have a chance to get it? (To be continued.)
