The ruins were located in an open space, with many modern houses nearby, which should be the residence of the staff.
The official protection of the Palo Ruins could be seen from the line of tourists at the entrance.
Obviously, the number of people entering the ruins in each batch was limited, and most of them were limited in time. The advantage of this arrangement was that it could reduce the monitoring pressure of the staff.
With such restrictions, there were so many people coming even in the off-season, which showed that the Palo Ruins were very attractive.
Law and Sambica stood side by side. Among so many tourists, their presence was particularly weak because the people around them were basically couples. The two of them stood together and looked like a couple.
Looking at the staff guarding the periphery, the level of vigilance was very high. This was only the periphery, not to mention the inside.
"Well, there should be no chance during the day. Maybe there won't even be a chance to touch it." Law thought silently.
The Palo Ruins was one of the official money trees, and it was normal for protective measures to be in place. On the one hand, they were afraid that the ruins would be damaged. After all, it was a building of many years and was already dilapidated.
On the other hand, it was also to guard against thieves with bad intentions.
In the Hunter's World, the black market was very developed. There were countless sellers and buyers, and all kinds of strange trading items were endless. For example, there were people who wanted the feces of a Duke's pet dog from a hundred years ago.
Where there were buyers, there would be monetary transactions.
The Palo Ruins retained the architectural style of ancient times. It was a blurry stone flower. There were many collectors in the black market who wanted it, and the price they offered was not low.
In general, as long as someone in the black market needed something, even if it was something that they had to break the law or risk their lives to get, there would be a lot of people fighting for it.
The ruins were so heavily guarded that they would have to make a trip at night.
Law and Sambica lined up honestly. At this time, even if they took out their Hunter's License, they could not cut the line.
Time passed little by little. A group of tourists went in, and another group came out. They waited for two hours before it was Law and Sambica's turn.
The Palo Ruins only received 300 tourists at a time. After paying for the tickets, the staff first explained several strictly prohibited rules to the tourists who wanted to go in, and then they let people in one after another.
Only half an hour was one of the conditions.
Law and Sambica followed the crowd through the stone arch and entered the ruins.
The accompanying tourists walked straight along the main road that extended from the entrance, not paying any attention to the dilapidated walls that were filled with the aura of time.
Palo City used to be a city and occupied a lot of land. However, it was destroyed in the war, and after hundreds of years of erosion, only a relatively intact area was left.
Most of the tourists who came here went for the statue of the Goddess of Love in the center of the area. A small number of people also went for the mayor's mansion.
Law's goal was Fordin, a craftsman who used to be a little famous in this ancient city.
"Many places have disappeared. I hope Fordring's house is still there."
Law took Sambika around and memorized the remains of every building.
Uniformed security guards could be seen everywhere. In this situation, it was impossible to find the wreckage of the building. Helplessly, they could only scout the area first.
With limited time, Law walked very fast. In a short while, he had checked half of the area and then came to the place where the statue was.
It was a female statue with many fine marks on the surface. She was dressed in silk and gauze and held a harp in her hand. She smiled sweetly and the love in her eyes was very vivid.
Whether it was the statue or the harp that looked like a heart, not only was it vivid, but the details were also very exquisite. It could be seen that the sculptor's skills were very profound.
Along the way, on the wreckage of the collapsed building, relief carvings on various walls, as well as craft ornaments and stone carvings used as decorations.
Seeing this statue and thinking that Fordring was also a stone carver, it could be seen that Palo City was popular with stone carvings, but it was overshadowed by the name of the City of Love.
"Sambika, would you like to walk around by yourself?" Law suggested. He was embarrassed to let Sambika accompany him to walk quickly in the ruins.
"Alone?" Sambika's eyes were calm.
"Uh …" Law suddenly remembered that the people around him were all in pairs. It seemed inappropriate to let Sambika go alone.
Without mentioning this suggestion again, the two left the statue, avoided most of the tourists, and walked to the other side of the area.
There were not many memory fragments from Fordring. He could see what the room was like, but along the way, the houses he saw were all in ruins. It was not easy to tell where Fordring's address was.
Moreover, the picture related to the Dark Sonata was that Fordring buried a scroll into the bricks and then built it next to the fireplace.
Law didn't see what was in the painting tube, but the vague feeling told him that the Dark Sonata might be in the painting tube.
Although he didn't know the exact location, the fireplace could be reduced.
Seeing that it was almost time, Law quickened his pace again.
Suddenly, a strange feeling like a treasure hunting instrument appeared, guiding Law like a pointer.
Following that strange feeling, Law looked at the wreckage of a building on the side of the road. It was already out of shape, but there were still some broken walls and pillars. Moreover, there was a broken fireplace in the house.
"Is it here …"
Law raised his eyebrows. He believed in the treasure hunting ability of the White Smoke font and his heart was set.
It seems that the Dark Sonata is likely to be near the wreckage.
"What's the matter?" Sambika saw Law suddenly stop and stare at a place with a puzzled expression.
"It's okay, it's almost time, let's go."
Law retracted his gaze and saw that the security guards in the ruins had begun to evacuate the crowd and confirm the number of tourists.
Half an hour later, Law and Sambika left the ruins with the crowd and returned to the rented lakeside wooden house.
The location has been confirmed, and the next step is to wait until the evening to start.
That night, Law took Sambika to the ruins of Palo City.
After arriving at the destination, the security outside the ruins was stricter than during the day, but they didn't know what the situation inside was like.
No matter what, Law had to get what Fudin had built into the brick wall, avoid the surveillance, use Sambika's mind to stun the guards outside, and then use his own mind to silently break through the barbed wire. After entering, he would restore the barbed wire to its original state.
After confirming the location during the day, they went straight to Fordring's residence.
After a while, Law and Sambika came to the wreckage of the house they sensed during the day.
After approaching, the feeling became stronger and stronger, making Law more certain that the thing was here.
Sambika quietly looked at Law squatting in front of the wall that was about to decay. He had doubts in his heart but did not ask.
"Found you."
Law stretched out his hand, drifted on the brick wall, and then stopped at a place.
Without any evidence, Law was sure that the thing was here. He immediately activated his ability to separate the painting tube hidden inside, and then restored the brick wall to its original state.
"There really is something …" Sambika looked at the quaint painting tube in Law's hand.
