The light comes from above on the other side of the room where you are currently, and is the natural light of the sun.

Shade then lit up the light on his fingertips and looked around, and found that it seemed to be an abandoned basement. Animal feces and various worthless garbage were thrown on the ground, and spider webs were hung all over the corners.

The moonlight even disturbed the bats resting in the darkness. Those creatures tried to attack Shade, but after a flash of moonlight, they fell to the ground.

"Where is this basement? It smells really bad."

There are no steps leading from the basement to the upper floors, and the two are connected by a trap door. There may have been a metal or wooden escalator, but now there is nothing.

Although the distance between the ground and the basement was not more than ten meters, because he didn't know what was going on above, Shade did not choose space movement but chose [Frog's Leap].

"Hi!"

After taking off lightly, his hands grabbed the edge of the square entrance to the basement, which was the edge of the gap in the first floor. After still not hearing any human voices, he used both arms to raise his head from under the trap.

This kind of pull-up-like movement puts no pressure on Shade now:

"Where is this place?"

With curiosity, he finally saw everything around him. The ground was covered with a thick layer of dust, and rusty or even rotten metal furniture was piled messily against the wall. There were some fires on the ground near the right.

There are traces, but that was at least a year ago.

The space on this floor is actually circular, and the walls are made of rough gray square stone bricks. There are no traces of the steam industry era.

Looking up, the spiral staircase spreads upwards. A slender but very strong-looking metal pole extends from the top of the tower to the ground, making it easier to fall from the top floor back to the bottom.

"Tower? Bell tower or lighthouse? Judging from the style, it seems to be neither."

The sunlight comes from directly in front. There are no traces of human use in this large tower. The door at the bottom of the lighthouse has been removed, and the bright sun shines into the first floor of the lighthouse from the outside, and then passes through the square gap in the ground.

Shine toward the basement.

Shade used his arms hard, and after his upper body jumped out of the basement, he first put his legs on the dusty ground, and then climbed up.

As he stood up, he patted the dust on his clothes and palms. Because of his actions, there was some grainy dust in the sunlight coming in from the door in front. This look was simply telling Shade that this place was far away from human beings.

community area.

"I hope it's not too far from the city, I hope this is Fort Midhill."

Xia De thought quietly in his heart, and then he remembered that he nominally believed in the righteous god [Mr. Liming], so he prayed to Mr. Liming in a low voice.

The sunlight shining in from the door was a bit dazzling. He raised his arms to shield his face. Instead of exploring this long-abandoned old tower, he walked into the light of the door.

The wind blew through the treetops, allowing Shade, who had lived in the Steam City for a long time, to feel the breath of nature for the first time in a long time. There was a forest in front of him, and the old tower behind him had almost completely integrated into the forest. It was abandoned.

The age is probably far more than 100 years.

The treetops have been set up on the outer wall of the old tower, and tree vines connect the towering trees and stone walls. Moss, weeds and various plants that Shade could not recognize covered the ground. Looking up, birds came from

The windows of the old tower fly out, as if it has survived in the tower for several generations.

"The air is really nice, but what is this tower originally used for?"

He was thinking.

There was no immediate night exploration because he found a metal plate nailed to the stone wall at the door of the old tower. On the metal plate were engraved a few lines of vague words in the form of official documents to explain the situation here:

[The 1st Regiment of the Royal Army of the Kingdom of Delarion - the 3rd Brigade of the Windy Trail - Tower 12 was abandoned due to the relocation of the front line, and the nearby camp has been demolished. Hunters, lost persons, and stowaways operating in the Sikal Mountains can

Move to the northwest at 11 o'clock and look for a path into the mountains. It takes about 30 minutes to reach the southeastern suburbs of Fort Midhill.
