"I didn't expect anyone to live in this place."
Sholex tugged on her collar, leaned on Xinghan and looked at the photos on the table curiously.
Xinghan reached out and picked up the photo frame.
A thick layer of dust fell on it.
Without the barrier of glass, the dust came into contact with the photo.
He blew it gently with his mouth, and the characters in the photo became clearer.
The man in the photo, who looks like a priest, has his right hand around the boy's neck.
The boy is smiling all over his face, and the family of three is very happy.
The background of the photo is exactly the same as the clock tower, but times have changed and now a college has been built.
Xinghan touched the missing corner of the photo.
It was as if someone had deliberately torn it off in order to conceal the woman's identity.
"Hey, what's wrong?"
Seeing that Xinghan hadn't moved for a long time, Sholex asked, poking his back.
"Oh, it's okay, let's look up."
Xinghan put down the photo and motioned for Listia to follow him and continue walking up.
The clock tower is not very high, only about three or four stories high, and the interior is only divided into upper and lower levels, so the stairs hanging in the middle will be relatively long.
At the end of the stairs, the door here is locked, but due to age, the lock has become rusty, and it can be pushed open with a gentle push.
The door panel is a very old wood, which is destined not to withstand the wear and tear of time and is as brittle as paper.
Pushing open the wooden door, a rotten smell inhaled her nostrils, and Sholex couldn't help coughing twice.
The structure here looks larger than the one below.
In the center of the room is a huge gear that is the core of the entire clock tower.
"strangeness" "Yes, after so many years, it seems that only this gear is still usable here."
Sholex squatted next to the gear.
There was not a trace of dust on the metal edge, as if someone had been cleaning it.
"Xinghan, this clock tower is a building left over from the last century."
Listia suddenly said from the side.
Xinghan asked in confusion: "Why do you say that?"
"Look at the silver coins here."
Listia seemed to be holding something in her hand.
She walked towards the light near the window.
She pointed at the pattern on it with her finger and said, "This is the period when King Lezecia was in power.
It was in the last century.
If this kind of silver coin appears here, its age can basically be determined. " "Is King Lezecia the emperor who unified Europe?"
Sylex interjected and asked.
"Well, yes, since the death of King Lezecia, the silver coins in Europe have been unified with the portrait of the current emperor.
All other silver coins with King Lezecia on them have been confiscated and refurbished.
I am afraid that the only ones left here are Let's do it."
Listia put the silver coin in the sunlight of the window.
There were already many spots on the surface of the silver coin that had the atmosphere of the old times.
"Hey, Xinghan, I think it's necessary to know the history of this college, what do you think?"
Sholex pondered for a long time, then raised her head and asked Xinghan.
Xinghan nodded and said, "But even if you look through the history of the academy, you probably won't be able to find things from the last century."
The three of them fell silent at the same time.
Xinghan was right.
It was basically impossible to trace things back that far, not to mention that the scope of the investigation was still this unknown small clock tower.

The time came to four o'clock in the afternoon unknowingly.
After Xinghan yawned, he said: "Shulex, I'm going to train.
Don't stay here anymore.
It doesn't look safe."
"Well, I'll go back first.
If there is any information about the history of this college, I will inform you as soon as possible."
Sylex seemed to have lost her energy and spent the whole afternoon investigating the clueless things.
She patiently It has long been polished.
"By the way, Listia, please go back with Ai.
We won't get home until about 7:30 in the evening.
If you're hungry, let Ai make dinner."
Xinghan pulled off the necklace around his neck and handed over To Listia.
"Oh, I see."
"Xinghan, why are you so absent-minded today?
Did something happen?"
At about 5:30, Xinghan, who had been distracted for a long time, suddenly heard Bingtong's voice, and then he came to his senses.
"Bang"
Xinghan rubbed his shoulders.
He was distracted for a moment and was hit by Lilicia's fireball.
But fortunately, she was able to hold back her magic power at that moment, otherwise she would never be safe.
"Well, I'm a little tired today.
I can't always think clearly about some things."
Xinghan lowered his training sword.
Broken Star was not in his hand for the time being, so he could only rely on this to practice with Lilicia.
"Do you want to rest?
I see you don't look well."
Lilicia put away her magic power and walked to Xinghan and asked.
Xinghan shook his head and said, "It's okay, you can get serious next time."
"Really?"
Bingtong glanced at the time.
It was still early before the end of training.
Since Xinghan insisted on continuing, there was nothing he could do.
"Don't force it."
"I know."
Although Lilicia knew that Xinghan was not in good condition, she could not control the magic in her hands well and hit him hard several times.
Feeling guilty, I finally stopped practicing at half past six.
"Is your strength so weak because love is not there?"
Lilicia handed Xinghan a bottle of water and sat next to him and asked.
"I don't know, probably."
Xinghan raised his head and drank half the bottle, then looked down at the ground thoughtfully.
After a long while, Xinghan raised his head and said softly, "Lilysia, am I really weak today?"
"Well, it doesn't feel like the power that a Broken Star user can have.
I don't see any of your moves threatening me at all."
Lilicia tightened the bottle cap and watched Feier and Funa's practice in the distance. .
“What a hassle” "Xinghan, to be honest, that woman gave me a bad feeling."

After a long time, Lilicia suddenly said.
Xinghan glanced at Lilicia and asked: "Which woman are you talking about?"
"The one named Mobenhafei, Listia's mother."
Feeling the same as himself, Xinghan nodded and said, "Well, I feel the same way.
By the way, I heard Listia say that her mother is a magician."
"The magician can't smell the magic from her at all."
Lilicia said in surprise.
"Probably because she has never used it."
"Really?
In other words, Xinghan, have you been worried about this all afternoon?"
Lilicia asked.
Xinghan did not deny that that woman indeed gave him too much gloomy aura.
He felt as if he would face death at any time next to her.
He didn't even know what force he was killed by.
"Besides, there's something I can't figure out."
At half past seven, Xinghan and Lilicia arrived at the clock tower located in the corner of the college.
They heard a lot from Xinghan along the way, and she roughly understood the situation.
Lighting the oil lamp on the table, the light instantly covered the entire dark room.
At this time, Xinghan suddenly discovered the scene that had been ignored during the day.
There are large and small photos hanging around the room, but the pictures on them are different.
The men, children, and the woman still have their heads or upper bodies torn off, and some even have their entire people removed from the photos. was torn off.
"Let's go."
Xinghan tugged Lilicia, who was in a daze.
Her body trembled suddenly, as if she was frightened by the gloomy atmosphere.
After a long time, she nodded gently.
Going up to the second floor, Xinghan opened the window.
From here, he could indeed see the rooftop where he was shot at noon.
I tried taking aim, and if there was someone in that position, I could really shoot to any part of him.
Xinghan sighed, only knowing that the first bullet was not enough.
He could feel it at that time.
The first bullet was just an ordinary bullet, and there was no other feeling when it penetrated his body.
"Xinghan, these silver coins are not from our era, right?"
Lilicia asked as she took out a handful of silver coins from the box on the side.
In the afternoon, Xinghan didn't notice the box over there, but Listia brought one over to investigate for herself.
She never knew that there would be a box full of silver coins from the last century in such a place.
"Wow" After flipping through it, he found that the number of silver coins here was beyond his imagination.
It was because of these large amounts of silver coins that Xinghan wanted to dig deeper.
After about two or three seconds, Xinghan's movements suddenly stopped, and he seemed to touch something in his hand.
Lilicia raised the oil lamp next to him and saw a photo in Xinghan's hand.
The content on it was almost the same as the one on the first floor.
Lilicia let out a bored sigh and said: "Why is it this one again?"
"No, this one is different."
Xing Han seemed to have discovered something was wrong with the photo.
Looking back, in the photos below, the man was on the left and the woman was on the right, but in this one it was the other way around.
Not only that, but the scene behind them has changed.

It seems that this photo is not on the same timeline as the others.
The background of the previous photo was a pasture, but this one was after the college was built.
"Was it when the college was first built?
Wait a minute."
Xinghan suddenly denied his idea.
Linglan College was built fifty years ago, and a century is one hundred years.
So why does it exist at this time?
The two silver coins with the portrait of King Lezecia are completely inconsistent in time.
At this time, Xinghan not only realized the time error, but also noticed a problem that had obscured him for a long time.
Since no trace of the sniper was found at all, why did Sylex think that it was the pre-curse master who shot him?
"Xinghan, there is a magic circle being activated nearby."
Lilicia suddenly turned around and ran towards the window.
Xinghan frowned.
Indeed, there was a magic power that was not easy to detect and was approaching the clock tower.
It was impossible for the pre-spell masters to have any abilities.
They had nothing but foresight and the help of angels.
"Tearing Thunder Spirit, release the flashing light of impact."
Xing Han jumped out of the window and threw a bright yellow ring of lightning towards the corner of the city not far away.
"Xinghan, be careful":
