Chapter 50 The Redeemer in the River Styx, the Soul Singer
"You obviously won the battle, why do you look like you are the loser?" Feltman, a layman, was trying to conceive of the story that had to be told between the aristocratic genius girl of Mildis Intermediate College and the poor girl, when he saw Little Will's sad face.
With a full face, I couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"You don't understand the world of genius, how lonely it is to be invincible. God, give me a genius boy who can defeat me!" Then let him become the focus of everyone's attention instead of me, so that I can learn and grow in peace, and I don't
It’s not suitable to stand in everyone’s sight right now. I don’t have enough strength to support such a heavy burden.
"Cut!" Dozens of hands raised their middle fingers at him at the same time.
Drake City has become a lot richer, but it has also fallen a lot. There is not a single official knight among the thirteen or fourteen-year-olds of the same age. This fault has been present for several years, and now the one who is most promising to break this fault is undoubtedly Lily.
Silk and Little Will. But one of the two is a girl, and the other comes from an ordinary family and has not been trained as a knight for a long time. It is too accidental.
The spirit lies in the subtleties. It must be said that many times the upper class people do not realize the seriousness of the problem, but careful people do not exist, and Jasmine is one of them.
She worked hard to cultivate Lilith, and wanted to wake up the fallen nobles with the help of Lilith. However, this plan did not succeed and was suppressed by Xiao Weier. Fortunately, Lilith was very resilient. Instead of sinking, she was inspired
Got fighting spirit.
The West Opera House has a history of hundreds of years. It is an antique that has witnessed the rise and fall of Delek City for hundreds of years. The influence of the administration from the old count, the father of the Earl of Bordeaux to the current Earl of Bordeaux, also represents the rise and fall of the East End business group.
The East District gradually declined, and most of the emerging wealthy businessmen moved to the South District and the central area.
The East District represents the old traditional industries, transportation, mining, marine fisheries, small handicrafts, etc., while the South District represents emerging industries, ocean transportation, foreign trade commodities, clothing, shoes and hats, fine wine and food, high-end enjoyment, children's paradise,
Jewelry, cosmetics, bookstore chains and other emerging industries.
With the departure of businessmen and the centralized management of the aristocracy, the East End declined, and some of the original industries in the East End also collapsed. The West Opera House is one of them.
Mandello has never considered himself a businessman. He considers himself an artist. It has been thirty years since he inherited the opera house from his father. He has transformed from a young talent in his prime to a bald, obese middle-aged man.
In addition to the opera house, he also runs a large bookstore, selling classic books with strong artistic qualities.
Like the West Opera House, his bookstore had a low-key reputation and was also poorly managed. If it weren't for the income from the suburban manor, he might really have gone bankrupt.
Even so, his family has gone from being a big businessman to a third-rate or even lower-level businessman and farmer. He sold the former large courtyard in the East District and exchanged it for a large manor in the suburbs. This may be his lifelong
The most profitable business he ever made was that his wife was the daughter of a small businessman and his three children, all grown up, were sent to live with relatives in other cities for development.
Mandro knew that he had no chance to revive the family business. He also knew that his character was too heavily influenced by his father, so he was unwilling to let his children continue to live like this. He interfered as little as possible in their children's choices.
, let them find their ideals in life early. He, his wife and an old servant guard the opera house and bookstore, and he will occasionally go to the farm in the suburbs. Well, when things are not going well in the East District.
Recently, he also discovered something strange about the West Opera House. As the owner, he had personally investigated it, but found nothing. The ferocious big dog at home did not dare to come close to the 20-meter radius of the stage, which made Mandello feel a little uncomfortable.
Dogs are very loyal and very sensitive. There is something in the opera house left by my father, something that may not be very good.
I asked people from the security department of the city hall to confirm, and they said everything was normal. I also wanted to come over at night to have a look, but I was stopped by my wife and servants, who said that I was old enough not to worry so much, professional.
It was better to leave the problem to professionals, so he hired two mercenaries and a detective to guard the opera house for three days and three nights.
They found nothing, but people outside could still see the lights inside the opera house and hear the elegant and sweet singing coming from inside. Mandro was afraid, and after sending away the mercenaries and detectives, he prepared to sell the opera house.
What comes to mind is not something dirty, but that his opera house is being targeted by a very powerful noble.
It was impossible for the mercenaries and detectives to know nothing. They must have been bribed. Facing the inquiries from Jasmine's senior knights and church people, Mandro expressed great indignation and said that he would sell the opera house, but the price was absolutely
No less, he is already old and plans to leave a large legacy for his three children.
Jasmine was very generous and directly spent 5,000 gold coins to buy this dilapidated opera house. Mandello only hesitated for a moment before accepting the deal. He took the bank check handed over by Jasmine and promised to do it early tomorrow morning.
Go to the city hall to complete the transfer procedures.
However, he still asked reluctantly: "Can you tell me which big shot is interested in my dilapidated opera house? What does that big shot plan to do with the West Opera House?"
"There are really many people who are interested in this opera house, including the City Lord's Palace, the City Hall, the Church of the Goddess of Dawn, the Church of the God of Storms, the Church of the God of Business and Wealth, the Church of the God of Craftsmen, and wizards from at least three schools of thought.
.As for what we plan to do with this opera house in the future, it depends on how much damage will be done to the opera house when we get rid of the weird things inside. Maybe, it will be in ruins tomorrow."
Jasmine's words shocked Luo Qi, "Dear Madam, it's not that I don't believe what you say, it's just, it's just, this is too shocking. Could it be that some big shot has taken a liking to my opera house and is looking for someone to do something about it?
"
"Haha, Mr. Rodman, do you think anyone can hire two high-ranking knights, two white bishops, ten priests, and hundreds of official knights at the same time for your shabby opera house?"
Jasmine's words made Rodman feel ashamed.
"Abnormalities began to appear in the West Opera House half a year ago. Since it never caused any harm, the city hall sent two ordinary clerks to keep an eye on it for a few days. After some investigation, they closed the case hastily without thinking about it.
It’s too complicated and requires professional extraordinary people to handle it, causing the anomalies here to become more and more powerful.”
"It is strange to say that the West Opera House has no impact on ordinary people at all. It is aimed at extraordinary people. Ordinary people can enter the opera house at will, but extraordinary people like us cannot enter. If it were not for a certain great sage
After informing us, I’m afraid we don’t know how long it will take before it is noticed. By then, the increasingly powerful anomalies may affect or even harm ordinary people.”
"That's it." Rodman accepted this explanation, but still pleaded: "No matter what, this opera house is an inheritance passed down from our ancestors. If you can, please keep it as much as possible. If you can,
If so, please allow me to redeem it at the original price after you finish handling the anomalies inside."
"Mr. Rodman, I have to say that you are very courageous. If there are no side effects after the treatment, we can consider returning the Opera House to you. As for the five thousand gold coins, you don't need to return them." Jasmine said about the five thousand gold coins.
I don't care, since it's the city hall's account anyway, it has nothing to do with me.
Night generals, hundreds of official knights outside the West Opera House surrounded the opera house. Two white-clothed bishops from the Church of Jasmine and the Goddess of Dawn, and the Church of the God of Storms stood at the front. The two senior knights were from the two churches.
The temple guardian knight is a powerful being responsible for the safety of the two bishops.
The night was getting darker and darker, and suddenly the lights came on in the originally dark West Opera House, and a faint and sweet voice came from it, which seemed to be a song, a very ancient ballad.
"How could the Soul Singer, the Redeemer in the River Styx, appear here?!" The bishop of the Church of the Goddess of Dawn was shocked. Suddenly, the surrounding scenery changed, and white angels the size of a palm flew out, overwhelming them.
Flying over, the little angels are very cute, holding small toy bows and arrows and shooting out streaks of white light.
"Be careful, this is the dream spirit of the voice of heaven. It can induce people to dream. Use your extraordinary power to resist it." The bishop of the Church of the Goddess of Dawn shouted loudly, but more than half of the knights had already fallen to the ground. Not all
