In ancient mythology, the pillar of heaven exists, standing in the center of the whole world and supporting Ita, the kingdom called the land of God.

This land with the same name as the Creator is the original Eden, the legendary paradise. The Creator Ita once dropped the first beam of light on this land and depicted the original appearance of the world from the light - the rising and the setting of the moon, the glory of stars, the earth and life, kingdoms and gods. The ancestors of humans, dwarves, elves, Paparals, the people of the wilderness and the goblins all came from this paradise until a disaster destroyed everything.

That day, the pillar of the sky collapsed, and the whole world was divided into pieces. The ancestors of the past had to leave their homes, leave their hometowns, and wander on the barren and dark land outside the paradise. The first world, Aitalia, in some ancient contexts, is said to have the meaning of "exile land" - it was originally called "Aitasoda" or "Aitasolin", but through repeated transformations of different ethnic languages, it gradually evolved into the word that people see today.

But time has passed, and people have long forgotten everything in the past - Aitalia. The four main floating continents above the sea of ​​clouds have become the new home of humans, dwarves, elves, Paparals, people of the wilderness and goblins. They renamed this place home and homeland.

Only in some ancient classics, in the context of religion, still describe the yearning for that beautiful land by those who left their hometown in the past, paradise lost, and land of God. When the sinner redeems sins, mortals will be re-recognized by Ita and return to their original hometown - in the dual sense of spiritual and material.

In the era when religion was prevalent, this argument was once rushing. Popes from major temples sold indulgences more than once in the name of this. In the end, religious ideals became a tool to exploit the surplus value of the lower class, and religious revolution broke out.

The gods followed the times to hand over their authority. The era of divine power declined. The emerging secular kingdoms appeared on this land. Kaurin-Ishurien and Oshu all carried out top-down reforms, replacing the theocracy with alchemists into emerging forces. Six hundred years after the Noumerlin elves left the world, they created a new and prosperous era of magical technology.

For the candidates who came to this world, this is what Aitalia and the others saw in the modern world—

But when people almost forgot the Lost Paradise, the great geographical discovery brought about by technological progress came from the floating island group in the south of Gudasock: the indigenous explorers and the conveners' ships jointly discovered the traces of the bridge to the sky...

That was undoubtedly a shocking moment.

When people walked out of the rainforest of Gudasok, under the gaze of countless gazes, at the end of the sea of ​​clouds in the sky, the former pillar of the world, was falling on the boundary of this world, it was like a huge, huge ruin, covered with mottled scars, traversing between the sea of ​​clouds, like a bridge, piercing the connection between the upper sea of ​​clouds and the lower sea of ​​clouds.

Later people gave it another name, the First Land Bridge. But that was what happened about thirty years after people discovered that they could go through this bridge to the higher level of the Kawashima, that is, the Second World.

Today people are gradually familiar with this name, but there are still some people who remember the past era and whisper another name from it:

Pillars of Ita.

The road to the Second World also once became a journey of civilization's homecoming.

Although people soon discovered that the upper layer of the sea of ​​clouds was not the paradise they imagined, but a new world that was very different from the first world, and this was the second world.

The noisy sea of ​​elements passes through the Second World, and countless Ether Rivers create a bizarre scene here. The floating continent no longer exists. There is only an island of large and small, and it is divided into four main areas:

Star fields, whales, lost soil and turbid fields.

The second world and the first world have completely different rules. The world laws here are obviously stronger than Aitalia. Therefore, even those who reach the limit of power in the first world are found to be able to grow further in this world. Starting from an era before, the strong people who reach the peak of the first world are called saints, and the saints go further and are extraordinary people.

Therefore, going to the Second World is also entering the Holy Land.

However, for the candidates, not every area of ​​the Second World is full of powerful creatures. With the strange and unpredictable rules, in fact, the Second World, like the First World, there are many areas suitable for mortals to live. These areas are often the focus of competition among countries, major forces and major guilds.

Among the four areas, there are about twenty-seven islands, which have the potential to become colonies of countries in the first world. There are seven whale seas, five lost lands, three star domains, and almost all the others are located in the turbid domain. Therefore, the turbid domain has been the center of this vortex from the beginning.

The largest island, Iron Candle Cape, is under the control of the Oshu people, and among the twenty-seven islands, there was once a neutral island belonging to the free-summoner - Covenant Mountain. Of course, this legendary land no longer exists and falls under the joint control of the Florids and the Rainbow Alliance.

These low-level areas of the second world, because of the more powerful world laws, have become bases for major guilds and forces to cultivate core talents. Almost all the guilds derived from the numbers of square rovings have their own branches in the first world, such as the Spear of the Silver Forest to the Crown of the Silver Forest, such as the Jeffrett Red Team to the BBK, and even the Ragnarok, the Silver Weislan and the Rose Crusaders.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! But these branches are actually just a resident of major guilds in the First World, used to accommodate the guild's peripheral members and continuously transfusion blood to the Second World. The core of these guilds is not in the Second World without exception. Their core guilds in the Second World are often distributed on the twenty-seven different islands described above.

However, the opportunity for round trip is so rare. The cost of cultivating a newcomer in the Second World is far higher than that in the First World. If it weren't for the core geniuses they were optimistic about, it would be almost impossible for ordinary people to get tickets to the Second World through such channels.

Of course, if there is a top boss from the Second World who is willing to take you flying, such as Miya and Bai Hua, it will be no difficulty to go to the Second World. However, there are a few sea witches in this world. Even Miya, it is already the limit to take him and Bai Hua to.

Compared with the major guilds and forces, the mainland countries and military still have thousands of places a year, which may be relatively larger in terms of probability. However, as Sophie said, with the further expansion of Star Gate, the competition for this ticket in the future will probably be more intense.

Unless he is willing to take another path, that is, after he reaches level 50, he will use his own strength to open the door of Aiquelar and lead to the Second World. But generally speaking, except for those who have no way of access, most people rarely make this choice. Compared with the rich resources of the Second World, the First World is so poor that it is unimaginable. Although the cost of cultivating a newcomer there is higher, the newcomer's growth rate is often faster, and the upper limit is much higher than that of the First World.

At least in Sophie's opinion, Fang Ling's long-term stay in the First World to develop is probably not a top solution.

Of course, Fang Rong himself understood this. He never thought that he would go to the second world by practicing until level 50 in the first world. When will he go? But it is not that simple to take the first path, let alone what he wants to get is not his personal ticket.

It is a ticket to the entire Qihai Brigade.

The difficulty of obtaining such tickets is to understand just by looking at the efforts made by the Tapolis Oak Knights over the past decade. If it weren't for the military's relationship, even Fang Zhu himself wouldn't dare to think about this, but with the support of the military, they might have really had this opportunity.

After listening to Fang Yu's description, Ai Xiaoxiao opened her mouth for a long time before asking blankly:

"Then how do we get the ticket? And what is the world emblem? Why can't Sister Sophie come back after passing through the Gate of Aquilar?"

"It's not that I can't come back," Fang Yu looked at the sea of ​​clouds floating outside the porthole and replied softly: "It's just that I can't return in a short time. First, I need to send a novice to the second world to be very expensive. Generally speaking, in a ship, every ten newcomers need at least three to four superiors to protect each ten superiors. Regarding superiors, I have explained to you before, that is, people who have entered the extraordinary realm over level 50. These people are the most core forces of a guild and a power, and they often fight on the front line of fighting for benefits for guilds. The time cost of their mission is difficult to estimate."

Ai Xiaoxiao nodded seriously.

"By the same reason, putting these people back to the First World is also a great waste of resources," May also spoke at this time. Her voice was soft and nice. "Because the poor resources in the First World are not said, staying for a long time will also damage the strength of these people. If it is not necessary, the superiors will rarely return to the First World. It is precisely for this reason that a large number of superiors have returned to the First World for a while ago, which caused a sensation."

"So that's it, I understand," Ai Xiaoxiao replied, "I didn't expect Miss May to know so much."

"This is what my teacher told me." Miss Knight was very modest.

Fang Ling continued to answer: "Because of the above, there is obviously no reason for the major guilds and forces to send the newcomers to the second world and then spend the same amount of energy to send them back. But with the strength of the newcomers, it is almost impossible to cross the continental bridge and return to the first world by themselves."

"But--" he changed his subject, "This is just one reason, and the other reason is the world emblem. The world emblem is a recognition of the world's laws for mortals. Only after the second world reaches the third level of power can the emblem seed be formed in the spiritual world. This is also the origin of the Dragon Knight system. Only after the emblem seed can one open the Equilaer in that direction in the second world and return to the first world."

Speaking of this, Fang Yu couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't have the emblem seed, but how did he obtain the Dragon Knight system? He looked back at Miss Tata and was a little confused for a moment. Or could Zero Crystal directly cross this point, and he could accommodate the dragon soul without the need for emblem seeds?

However, if this issue is to be investigated in depth, it is too complicated. He couldn't think of any reason for a while, so he just shook his head and ignored it. Existence is reasonable. Anyway, this is the case. As for why, the truth may be revealed after going to the second world.

He then followed the previous topic: "As for how to get tickets to the Second World, there are actually many ways, but most of them are not suitable for ordinary people."

"What?" Ai Xiaoxiao asked.

“Mainly through various events—”

"Contest?"

"Xiaoxiao," Tianlan spoke at this time, "Don't you know the three top events?"

"I know a little about this," Ai Xiaoxiao nodded quickly. She actually started to understand the world through such a game. It was more than a year ago when Fang Yushi made her bond with this world.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The so-called three top events, that is, the three major events held in the second world, representing the highest level of super competitive, namely the Ten Kings Competition, the professional league and the most famous one, symbolizing the highest honor of super competitive - the Super Competitive Championship.

As the name suggests, the Ten Kings battle is actually a competition for top honors in each combat profession. It is held every three years and divides hundreds of major professions in Aitalia into ten major profession categories, and sets a unique champion among different profession categories.

That is, the title of king of each profession, that is, the origin of the ten kings.

The Ten Kings Battle is a cup-like competition, but it is not determined from a competition. To participate in this super competitive event, first of all, you have to use your representative profession to participate in many lower-level professional competitions designated by the Super Competitive League.

And get points from these competitions. When the three-year Ten Kings battle officially begins, the Super Sports League will invite players in different categories of professional points to participate in this highest event and decide the only champion.

That is, the successor to the title of the ten kings of the current generation.

The last Ten Kings competition just ended a year ago. The ten Kings' position has almost no change compared to the previous session, and the next session will have to wait two years later.

As for the Life Professional League, it is aimed at the Life Professional League, which is somewhat similar to the Mainland League played in the First World, and is also a league-oriented game. However, the Mainland League is mainly aimed at newcomers and is also determined as the title of newcomer king. The Life Professional League is much more professional - not only for the callers, but also for the indigenous people.

Since there is no age restriction in the Life Professional League, it is actually the most brilliant competition event for the Aboriginal people, and the Aboriginal champion is born almost every year.

The last championship game, known as the top honor of the Super Athletics League, is for teams and guilds. The lower-level event of this competition actually started from the fact that the caller entered Aitalia and joined a certain team.

"Yes, Xiaoxiao, you're right," Tianlan, who was born in a wealthy family of twelve-colored iris, is obviously familiar with these things. "This top-notch championship match, like the Ten Kings' battle, is also a point-based system, but this point - the points we accumulate during our daily adventures."

She waved her hand, "Of course, the points in the First World are pitifully small, which is basically meaningless for this competition. However, in the Second World, various guilds compete for mission authority and regional wars, but they are much more intense than in the First World. This is also the reason why the time of the superiors is so precious - because they are also the sharp knife of a guild, the most core resource of a guild, and must be used at the edge of the knife."

"Tianlan is right," Fang Yu praised the poet Miss. "Simply put, the championship game is also a team game and a guild game. It is also the basis for the origin of the top ten guilds in a competition area. The so-called top ten guilds are actually listed according to the final ranking in the competition - in theory, it should be called the top ten guilds, power and team, but generally speaking, this honor is monopolized by major guilds, and small teams basically have no chance."

Ai Xiaoxiao nodded in a vague way.

She thought for a while and asked again, "But what does this have to do with the ticket?"

"Because the tickets for major competition areas are decided from the lower-level events derived from these three major competitions," Tianlan replied: "Of course, major guilds and forces, as well as countries and military have their own quotas, but those quotas basically have nothing to do with us. If Brother Ed is interested in tickets, he can only pursue free tickets."

“Free ticket?”

"It is the tickets outside the monopoly of the major guild forces. Most of these tickets are issued through these small competitions, but the championship is generally limited, occasionally the runner-up. Xiaoxiao, don't think it's simple," Tianlan sighed and said, "The participants in such competitions are numerous. Since they are free tickets, the geniuses of the guild can of course compete. Therefore, for ordinary people, there are basically little hope. I can see such things."

"The remaining way is that the occasionally adventurers and craftsmen associations in various regions will issue some tasks," Fang Yu added. "But there are not many opportunities like this, and it is not simpler than various competitions. Just like the mission issued by the military in Charter City not long ago, through the task of the Dragon Witch's level, it only issued more than thirty places."

"And it's useless for us to get one or two tickets," Tianlan said again: "If Brother Ed wants to bring the entire Seven Seas Brigade to the Second World, what we need is not individual tickets, but team tickets."

“Team ticket?”

"Simply put, if more than 70% of our team have personal tickets, it will automatically be upgraded to team tickets," Tianlan replied: "But this opportunity is too small, because tickets are invalidated every year. Generally speaking, it is almost impossible to get multiple personal tickets in a year. So we have to go another way, which is a large-scale mission..."

"Large mission?"

"For example, if we kill the annoying prime minister and the young king, and let that prince become the king of Kaorin-Ishurien, he might give us a team ticket, in the name of Kaorin--" Tianlan replied.

"Tianlan, what are you talking about?" Fang Yu said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense."

Tianlan hurriedly stuck out his tongue, "I'm just an example. Of course, this is a violation of the Stargate Declaration. But the reason is that the so-called large-scale mission is the task of changing the history or even the political landscape of a region, because your influence is large enough, maybe you can get enough benefits from it to allow you to go to the Second World."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Ai Xiaoxiao widened her eyes: "This sounds more unreliable than the first possibility."

"Yes," Fang Yu nodded: "But there is a third possibility, that is, to buy with points. This is also the way the Tapolis Oak Knights took. They first obtained some personal tickets through the first path, and then used the points accumulated in the previous years to buy tickets for other people. In this way, they can send a team to the Second World. In fact, the combination of the first route and the third route is exactly the way most guilds choose."

"But," Ai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but say, "Didn't that bad super competitive league have banned us from participating in all super competitive projects? Wouldn't that block our first path?"

When talking about this, Fang Yu couldn't help but frown. Why is it said that the Super Competitive Alliance has such a strong deterrent to the major guilds? It is precisely for this reason. Fortunately, they can only manage the candidates.

"They can control the callers, but not the Aboriginal people," Fang Yu replied. "Although most of these competitions are held by the Super League, there are also some Aboriginal competitions like the Mainland League, and some of them are also qualified for tickets."

"So that's it." Ai Xiaoxiao didn't know how many he said it.

She finally figured out the background of the conversation between Sophie and Fang Yu.

The little girl held her cheek and thought for a while, suddenly remembered something, raised her head and said blankly, "By the way, what about the pillar of Ita... People discovered the ruins of ancient times, which proved that the legends in myths were indeed real. What about it after that? The second world discovered it, what about the legends in the legend?"

When Fang Ling heard this question, she couldn't help but look at the ship's officer not far away.

Silmide was also smiling slightly and said actively: "People think so too, Xiaoxiao."

She turned around and looked at the clouds outside the window: "Because that is the mortals in Aitalia have been traveling to the Second World since that era, looking for the driving force of the bridge of sky..."

And her father is just a part of this vast torrent of history.

...

Luo Yu looked at his parents.

He looked away slightly and looked at the image hanging on the wooden wall on the side of the bed: it was a man and a woman, holding a little boy with clear eyebrows and eyes. The little boy had short hair, red lips and white teeth, and a star-like light in his dark eyes, and his eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to the boy in front of him.

The blinds were closed tightly, and the cabin was a little dark. The only light came from a light floating in the air. On the fluorescent light screen, the communication crystal was standing aside, pushing a beam of light on the projection. The light passed through the floating dust, like countless flashing tiny creatures, swimming in the air.

After a while, the person above the light curtain finally spoke.

"Xiao Yu, I've discussed it with your father," the woman with a very elegant temperament pushed the glasses frame and spoke in a serious tone: "You should still remember what we said to you before?"

Luo Yu frowned and nodded silently.

"Just remember," the woman nodded: "We have high expectations for you, you must be the best one. Of course, I understand your ideas - for friends and teams, of course, you must take responsibility. Being responsible is a good thing, we absolutely support you-"

"That's it," she said, "Xiao Yu, if you have time, please contact us--your father and I also happen to want to meet your friends, how about?"

Luo Yu opened his mouth, and he looked at the two people in the picture, but finally made no sound.

And the woman didn't seem to need his answer: "Take good care of yourself and don't put yourself in danger easily. If you have anything, we'll talk about it later."

"Remember," she said with a sense of confidence, "Your father and I are waiting for you there."

The picture became darker.

Luo Yu stood there and looked at his communication crystal without moving.
