Chapter 604: Going Home
The taxi drove forward on the road in Springs.
In this most familiar environment, Ronald looked at the street scene outside, adjusting his state while still thinking about what to do next.
"..."
First of all, it is impossible to go to the island and block the crisis from the source.
It would have taken Ronald two days to fly there alone, and the distance problem made this option impossible.
At the same time, because of experiencing the reverse flow of time.
Ronald has completely seen the changes in Springs in the past few days.
Although the whole city cannot be seen due to the viewing angle, a rough process can be pieced together through some careful consideration of details.
Tomorrow is harvest day.
Springs will be hit by two mysterious side attacks during the day.
The first attack was a planned attack from the [Nine Rings Secret Society]; the second attack was after the [Nine Rings Secret Society] was dealt with by official forces. The cult warlocks who noticed this started to take the opportunity to cause trouble in the city. .
Starting from the facts, there is indeed no doubt about the official strength of Springs.
The two attacks that occurred during the day had only a very small impact and can basically be called a model of perfect response.
—But at night.
——The situation suddenly got out of control.
Queen Danterian followed the celebration route to the port area, which was the busiest part of the entire festival and a key moment for her speech as the leader of the country.
But at this time.
Escape from the [infinite negative number field].
A group of great wizards holding original scriptures led by man-made gods came from the sea.
The group of people in Barrier Mountain did not have any scruples, and based on the information provided by the [Nine Rings Secret Society], they launched the most violent attack on Danterian.
At this point, everything is heading towards an unpredictable future.
This is true for everyone.
What the people in Barrier Mountain didn't expect was that Greed's official power was extremely powerful, and wizards from all over the world were also helping. The superimposed strength of various personnel actually defeated them head-on.
Things were even worse in Springs.
They had previously planned and guaranteed to eliminate the [Nine Rings Secret Society] and the cult sorcerers, but the barrier mountain wizards coming from the sea were not included in the defense plan.
So at night, at the much-anticipated festival.
The casters of the two factions used their own fists to completely expose everything on the mysterious side to the citizens of Springs, as well as people from all walks of life who came from all over the world to participate in this event!
This moment is no better than before.
Even if Springs had the means to deal with this situation, under the strong offensive of the wizards of Barrier Mountain, it was impossible to free up their hands to erase the memories of ordinary people, which directly led to a serious loss of confidentiality on the mysterious side.
According to the picture Ronald saw before entering the reverse flow of time.
After experiencing such a change, it's no wonder that Springs became like that.
"..."
"First of all, we have to start with the first two waves of attacks..."
In the carriage, Ronald was sorting out his thoughts.
He took out the map left by Catalina and looked at it, his eyes a little confused.
No matter what the situation is in Springs, the huge changes in the end will affect every corner of the world, so blocking the spread of knowledge on the mysterious side can be said to be doomed to failure.
Then I have to go to the Harvest Day celebration.
Are these battles and efforts destined to be in vain?
"Hiss..."
At this time, the discomfort in his soul reflected back on Ronald.
He gasped, then shook his head with a wry smile.
When the vision first appeared, it was on harvest day. Even if Ronald rushes to the island by himself and finds a way to return to the [Infinite Negative Realm], due to the difference in time flow rate between the two worlds, the result may be in vain.
in his own capacity.
The best...or the most suitable choice right now.
I'm afraid that we should take action on the harvest day, so as to minimize the casualties of innocent people at the celebration.
"..."
"Sir, we've arrived."
"Thank you - this is the fare."
"Go slowly!"
It is more convenient for a taxi to move forward on the road at night.
A few minutes faster than expected, Ronald was sent to the streets of the Riverside District.
Pay the money to the driver.
Ronald got out of the carriage and walked slowly deeper into the street.
The cab did not stop directly at the apartment, but at the end of the street.
So Ronald came down and walked for a little over a minute before he stood in front of his house in the riverside area again.
"..."
Under the illumination of the street lights, Ronald silently looked around the building.
The apartment was still quiet at night.
Although Ronald's subjective perspective has only been away for more than ten days, for this person, time has actually passed for a month.
Seasons change and temperatures drop rapidly.
This apartment has actually undergone some minor changes since Ronald left it - such as the broom placed at the door to sweep away the snow. In other words, none of the investigators stationed nearby are missing.
"..."
"Huh--"
Ronald exhaled with a somewhat complicated mood.
The power of 'Rage' sensed the situation in the apartment. There was someone in his house, and the other person's mood swings were very stable. She didn't look like an intruder or an enemy, but she wasn't the Heloise he was most familiar with either.
Who could this person be?
And why in your own home?
Ronald listed several possibilities in his mind.
——After he left, Heloise also left for safety reasons, so the landlady rented the house again.
——After I, the holder of the original code, disappeared, other people from the mysterious side wanted to get something in their own house, so they rented this room from the landlady.
——It could even be that the maid from the Adler family finally found this place according to the Ginkgo Leaf Chamber of Commerce information. On the premise that Ronald's traces cannot be traced, he will temporarily live here?
Ronald had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but his steps never stopped.
After all, no matter what, some of the things he had hidden in the house had to be recycled.
With a trace of curiosity, Ronald confidently stepped on the spiral staircase to the third floor.
He had no intention of hiding his movements.
Now Ronald possesses many original books, and his strength is completely different from when he left. Even if Entrod's spy chief comes to make a sneak attack, he will be absolutely sure to take him down.
Click -
Ronald took out the room key.
The key fit perfectly into the keyhole on the door.
The locks were not changed - does that mean the apartment has not been rented to someone else?
Thinking in mind.
Ronald opened the door deftly.
Then, an unexpected figure with dazzling platinum hair sat at the desk in the living room.
