Chapter 274
"No need to thank me, this is what I should do."
Ten minutes later, the petrification was lifted, and the fainted Shandians also gradually regained consciousness under the illumination of the Holy Light.
Just as they were bewildered, not knowing what had happened, those with sharp eyes had already seen the golden bell in the center of the road.
"Look! Is, is that... the golden bell?"
"That's right, it must be it! I wouldn't forget its appearance even if I died!"
Wei Pa glanced at Hancock with wariness, walked silently to the Chief's side, and asked in a low voice about the situation: "What happened just now?"
The Chief pointed at the golden bell and smiled slightly: "This is all thanks to Mr. Karl. If it weren't for him, we would not only lose Upper Yard, but we would never see the golden bell again in this lifetime."
"As for the rest, you don't need to worry about it."
Wei Pa seemed to hear the Chief's subtext and asked hurriedly: "Chief, are we, are we unable to return to Upper Yard?"
"Sigh~ This is already the best condition Karl could fight for on our behalf. As long as the promise can be fulfilled, it is the same wherever we are."
"But..."
The Chief waved his hand: "No more 'buts'. Now you have a more important mission."
Wei Pa was stunned, staring blankly at the Chief. The Chief shook his head, turned, and walked into his room. Before long, he walked out, holding the striker high with both hands.
"Ring it! Child, fulfill the promise between our ancestors and Norland from 400 years ago!"
"Chief... I."
Wei Pa's eyes misted over, and hot tears flowed: "Yes! Chief!"
The surrounding Shandians also saw this scene and turned their gazes toward Wei Pa one after another.
Wei Pa took a deep breath, solemnly took the striker from the Chief's hands, and stared straight at the golden bell not far away.
"Ring it! Wei Pa!!!" "Ring it! Wei Pa!!!" "Ring it! Wei Pa!!!"
The voices of the people around him echoed continuously in Wei Pa's mind. In a trance, he seemed to hear the whispers of his ancestors.
The next second, Wei Pa's gaze became incomparably firm. He hugged the striker tightly with both hands and roared as he charged toward the golden bell.
The distance between Wei Pa and the golden bell grew closer and closer, closer and closer, and finally! The striker struck the golden bell.
"Clang~"
This sound was deep and powerful, resonant and long-lasting, ringing through the Cloud Hidden Village, ringing through Upper Yard, ringing through the entire Sky Island.
Its sound was ancient and long, traversing 400 years of time, responding to the promise of the past, and bidding farewell to the Norland of the past.
This sound, due to its vigorous and beautiful tolling, was just like a light in the dark night, capable of guiding the direction and lighting up hope for fleets sailing in a storm.
The light of Shandora, it lit up...
The Shandians present shed tears, but smiles hung on their faces. After generations of effort, they had finally done it.
They had fulfilled the promise for their ancestors and fulfilled their ancestors' last wish.
This day, the ancestors didn't wait for it, the predecessors didn't wait for it, but by their generation, they waited for it.
Angel Island.
Gan Fall, who was giving a speech, couldn't help but close his eyes upon hearing this bell sound. It wasn't just him; the Sky Island residents below also closed their eyes.
Quietly listening to this long-lasting bell sound, to them, this was a sound engraved into their DNA, because to them...
This was the voice of God, this was the call of God.
Waters near Jaya Island.
Mont Blanc Cricket, who was preparing to dive into the sea to search for artifacts, seemed to hear some kind of bell sound in a trance, but he just smiled. The pressure had been too great lately, and he was hallucinating.
But as the sound waves approached, Cricket froze. This sound was so beautiful, so real.
"Boss, did you hear it? The sound coming from above!" Masira and Shoujou shouted excitedly.
Cricket smiled with relief: "Yeah! I heard it..."
When you come to Jaya once again, how will you imagine us who have disappeared?
Wait a little longer, and I will tell you, we have lit the light of Shandora here.
