Roland immediately knew what he was talking about.
To be honest, Roland was a little speechless at the game development team's bad taste. Roland had thought that it was just a very ordinary statue that was functional after all. But he really didn't expect that not only was the image so flashy, but the broken bowl also had a very strong allegory, giving people a strong sense of ridicule.
For players, it was normal for game buildings to be indestructible and immovable.
But for the game NPCs, it was quite a strange, even magical thing.
In their eyes, there was only one explanation for this thing.
A miracle.
In fact, Roland's statue was discovered by people near the capital less than three days after it appeared. After all, the copper basin next to the statue looked shiny and very much like gold.
At first, many people tried to take the copper basin away. As a result, even though they tried everything, they couldn't get the copper basin off the ground.
They tried to dig the ground near the sand statue, only to find that the ground about ten meters away from the sand statue would recover no matter how they dug, and it couldn't be interfered with with magic.
This situation attracted the attention of many nobles and spellcasters. They checked a lot of books and materials, only to find that there was no story or legend about the man with the sand statue.
Until one day, they found that a Golden Son threw a gold coin into the sand statue, and the coin disappeared with a shimmer.
They knew that the statue must have some function.
Then, they stopped the Golden Son and elicited an important piece of information from him with delicacies and beauties.
As long as one threw a gold coin into the copper bowl, they would receive a strange ability that could increase the spellcaster's magic power regeneration and … increase mental resistance.
They didn't quite believe it at first.
But many of the nobles were bored people, and there were many spellcasters among them.
So someone tried to throw a gold coin into it.
As a result … he really had an additional ability. Magic power regeneration did increase, and as for mental resistance, they didn't have the conditions to test it yet.
After that, all the nobles in the capital seethed, and a lot of people threw gold coins into it.
In the end, it was discovered that only those who could cast spells could get this ability.
Then, led by the Association of Mages, the nobles set up walls and checkpoints around the sand statue, and only those they "approved" were qualified to enter the vicinity.
They called this sand statue a ritual for the Goddess of Magic.
Bard continued telling Roland about the recent situation in the capital.
Roland was a little surprised. No wonder the gold coins were coming in so fast for a while and then slowed down.
"Looks like you really know something. Bart had been paying attention to his expression. Seeing his strange expression, he knew that this matter was directly related to him. "Can you tell me?" “
Roland shook his head helplessly. "I don't know where to start. “
Bard raised his eyebrows slightly. He could tell that Roland really didn't want to talk about it.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Then let's change the topic. Now that many Golden Sons have gathered here, you seem to want to use this place as your base? “
Roland was slightly surprised. "Why do you think so?"
"I can't help but think so." Bard sighed softly. "What will happen to John's family in the future?"
"Nothing much?" Roland shook his head. "They're still the real masters of this city, but their orders may not reach the bottom level."
Grassroots? Bud was very interested in this word.
Because of Language Proficiency, the word was translated quite accurately. He could understand the meaning of the word just by listening.
Bard secretly remembered the word in his heart. Then he said, "In any case, I personally hope that you don't hurt John's family anymore. The current situation is very good. They have a chance to regain their power, and you can get enough benefits. If it goes any further, the balance will collapse. "
Roland nodded lightly.
Then, the two of them chatted for a while, and then Bard found an excuse to go out.
He took a carriage to John's house.
The gate of the castle was still being repaired, and the castle was deserted. Although there were still enough guards and servants, they were obviously not in good spirits.
Bard sighed inwardly. Then, he soon met his old friend, John Junior.
The hot drink on the table was smoking. John Junior's face was full of stubble, and he looked much more haggard. He was no longer as high-spirited as before.
"It's been more than three months, John." Bard's tone was rather calm.
John Junior put on a smile that was mixed with sadness. "It has indeed been a long time. In three months, the world has changed, right? "
"I'm quite sad about what happened to John Senior." Bard said sincerely, "If there's anything you need my help with, please don't hesitate to tell me. I'll help as long as I can." “
John Junior suddenly raised his head, his face gloomy and his eyes somewhat crazed. "What if I say that I want all the Golden Sons to die? You can definitely do it! " “
Bard felt that his skin was stinging from the murderous aura that was almost tangible. He frowned slightly and said, "Impossible, I can't do it."
"But the Bard family can do it." John Junior stared straight into Bard's eyes. "As long as you unite with the other three families, it's very easy to kill the Golden Sons of Delpon and push them back to level zero. You should be very clear that although the Golden Sons are immortal, they will lose power after they die. As long as they die enough times, they will become about the same level as ordinary people."
Bard slightly closed his eyes. "This intelligence was spread by a few noble families in the capital. Of course we know. "
"If they become about the same level as ordinary people, I'm confident enough to trap them in the Church of Life and never get out." John Junior's voice burst out of his throat, like the ravings of a demon. "I know you won't help me easily, but if you can do it, I'm willing to give you two-thirds of the territory around Delpon, including twenty-seven towns, thirty-eight villages, and four mines."
Hearing the conditions, even Bard, who had been born with a silver spoon in his mouth, was greatly surprised. "Are you crazy? Without those things, the John family will be half crippled. "
John Junior smashed the table heavily. With a thud, all the cutlery jumped and clanked, spilling a lot of liquid on the table. John Junior's cheeks were tight, and his eyes were wide and bloodshot. "Can it be better than this life that's close to house arrest? Without a third of the territory, our family will have a hard time at best, but if we lose our freedom, everything will be over. "
After a brief silence, Bard said, "I'm very tempted by the conditions." “
John Junior's face beamed with delight. "You agree?" “
A sand sculpture appeared outside King City. "It's amazing," Bard said calmly. "It can't be destroyed or moved. If you throw a gold coin at it, you can learn a special ability. “
John was puzzled. "Although it sounds magical, what does it have to do with what we're talking about? “
Bard stared at him, his face as calm as a still well. "That idiot looks exactly like Roland."
John Junior's pupils constricted.
