Chapter 1581 A first exploration of the floating island
The person who came was Lin, who had just taken over the task of designing a simple magic tower for war from the old Mr. Kawei.
In fact, most of the design drafts are already in place, and he also has certain ideas about the new energy pool. But how could Lin not be interested in seeing the ultimate in ancient man-made objects - the Myser Energy Core?
Although I saw the 'experimental work' of the Myser Energy Core in Iron City, the retreat of the Silverbeard Dwarves, the intelligence contained in it almost wiped out the Silverbeard Dwarves. But according to what the Silverbeard Dwarves said,
, there is still a considerable gap between the failed product and the finished product.
It's just that although the inheritance of the Silverbeard dwarves retains relevant knowledge, because it also involves the secrets of other races, even if the Silverbeard dwarves have the materials, they cannot recreate a complete energy core on their own.
They can't tell the difference between the experimental work and the finished product. It's just that the person responsible for supervising the construction decides whether it can or cannot decide the fate of this energy core.
At that time, it was not that Lin had not thought about seeing the real Miser Energy Core. It was just that he could not find any trace of the floating island, and he could not use any method. Of course, he did not have the chance to see the full version of the Miser Energy Core.
Although someone has relatively deep knowledge in the arcane eye, there is almost nothing that cannot be detected, but the premise is that the object is within the detection range. Therefore, if Lin wants to use the arcane eye to find the floating island, he must first confirm the opponent's approximate location.
In which area.
...Isn’t it that I don’t even know where the floating island is? If I knew it, I would have found it long ago.
Unless the Arcane Eyes are made into clusters today and have a global layout...are they thinking of themselves as the Magnesium Emperor, or a vigilante hero like the Watchtower in DC?
Let's not consider the cost of making such a layout. If you really build this set of things, what will you use it for? Even if you don't use it yourself, let others use it. Why? Instead of claiming to be the king and hegemony, change it to a dragon? I'm full.
What's wrong with lying down at home?
In short, the traces of the five floating islands have been hidden so far, and Lin can't find any clues. Even Lin thought that the floating islands had left the lost world and gone to other places or other planes. So he gave up the pursuit.
Now, because of the fight against the abyss invasion, a floating island has been forced out. This is not an opportunity for someone.
The reason why Lin did not rush to the island immediately was because he wanted to wait and see first to see the island's style and stance. After all, according to informal historical records, the five floating islands were originally on the island.
They separated and even started a civil war.
It can be seen that the camp attributes of the five islands are different and even conflict with each other.
As a group of people who specialize in magic and achieve such achievements, it is conceivable that such divisions would occur. On the contrary, the situation where the five islands are closely aligned is the most unlikely thing to happen.
But Lin also made a mark in advance to prevent the floating island from disappearing suddenly. This mark was placed in the uninhabited area at the bottom of the island, and he stayed there for a short period of time; this was also to observe the warning measures of the floating island.
But it seems that Lin was not discovered.
After a period of side observation and various understandings from the information available on the forum, Lin probably figured out what these people were thinking. The only thing he was not sure about was their purpose of doing this.
Today I happened to be waiting for a mission while being bused by the old Kawi, and the Miser Energy Core and the Energy Pool belong to the same category. Maybe I can find more inspiration and reference points from the full version of the Energy Core. So I did two things at the same time.
One thing, Lin began to think about the issue of entering the front of the floating island.
Before, I was doing some sneaky things carefully in the uninhabited area at the bottom. It should be considered normal that I was not discovered, or it was just good luck. Lin believes that the former is more likely.
Because there are not only plants growing at the bottom of the floating island, but also some magical birds that live here. Some build nests on branches, and some live directly in caves. Each has its own area and does not interfere with each other. There is no
Common birds.
According to Lin's observations at the time, it is very likely that the floating island is usually suspended in the sky at a considerable height. At such a height, ordinary birds have no way to survive. Only magical birds full of power can survive.
Relying on his talent, he endured the low temperature and thin air in the high altitude.
In fact, when he first saw the creatures at the bottom of the floating island, Lin also doubted whether these were the magical birds kept for security on the floating island. However, after testing several times, he was sure that these were all wild.
It's not domesticated, and of course it has nothing to do with the floating island's warning system.
Since there are creatures at the bottom of the floating island, and they are still wild, it should be proved that the management of the uninhabited area at the bottom of the floating island is loose and loopholes. However, I have no obligation to help others solve such problems, let alone
You might come to your door and take the initiative to notify you of such things.
What we are going to enter this time is the front of the island. This group of guys who call themselves Heavenly People are in the living area, residential area, management area, and all activities on the floating island. Under such circumstances, can I still
Stay undetected and simply find what you are looking for and leave?
Although Lin is very confident in the concealment-oriented White Tiger Robe he designed, he is only 50% sure that he will not be discovered after landing on the floating island. The reason why the success rate is so low is
It's because there are only two outcomes: 'discovered' and 'not discovered'.
The Floating Island comes from ancient magic inheritance, and has been isolated from the main world of Lost Land for so long. It can be said that even if there is knowledge from the same source, there will be a considerable chance to find a different path.
So are my concealment methods still useful? Has Floating Island developed another set of detection methods? These are the risks that I expose myself to.
However, no matter how high the risk is, this trip is bound to go. So after Lin first built himself up mentally, he used the flash technique to move to a higher altitude than the floating island. The purpose of doing this was to use God's perspective
Observe the front of the island to find a suitable sneaking spot.
Lin did not dare to use the Arcane Eyes for active detection. Because doing so, in the eyes of some people who are very sensitive to magic power, would be the same as announcing with great fanfare that 'he is here'.
Let’s bet that a person who uses magic to pull a large piece of land into the sky has a dinosaur-level sensitivity to power. It’s better to bet that monkeys can’t climb trees or cats can’t eat fish. Anyway, these are unlikely to happen.
Therefore, Lin was extremely careful. He carefully selected an invasion direction and used the flash technique to enter Ada among the five floating islands in the Lost Land.
Just as soon as he set foot on the land of the floating island, Lin felt a strong sense of unreality. Even though he was wearing a white tiger robe and all kinds of concealment magic were fully activated, he was now walking between reality and illusion, but in terms of his five senses,
It's still uncompromisingly 'real'.
In order to adjust this situation, Lin spent a lot of thought. After all, in all worlds and planes, if you want to obtain the most information from the target under investigation, the best way is to be in the same position as the opponent.
If you stay in different locations, what you see will be distorted to some extent. If you can't get the most realistic and usable data, it's better to completely escape into other worlds or planes. Why bother to cross multiple locations?
between realms.
Therefore, Lin was very confident. With the power of the white tiger robe fully activated, he could still feel the touch of green grass under his feet. He could smell the fragrance of new shoots covered with soil after the spring rain. And most recently, the smell of rotting corpses.
The stench, the smell of blood, and the sour smell of the orcs, a race that prides itself on not bathing, has marinated itself for a lifetime.
But standing on the floating island, Lin felt something was wrong. As for what was wrong, he couldn't tell for a while.
Then he turned around and looked around, trying to find the source of this strong sense of dissonance. Lin unexpectedly realized that he seemed to be surrounded!
The last time I sneaked into the Gate of the Abyss for reconnaissance, I was also surrounded by the succubus army led by the succubus king. However, the arcane eye prop used for reconnaissance at that time was exposed. Although it was hidden, its power
The fluctuations still attracted the devil's attention.
This time, I didn’t bring anything extra, and the white tiger robe was at full power. So, did this group of heavenly beings on the floating island happen to surround the place where I was standing due to other reasons?
On the floating island, the heavenly beings surrounding Lin were not wearing kite suits. They also did not show their true colors, but were wearing another type of full-cover armor.
The most obvious feature, of course, is that the pair of wings are missing from the back. Instead, there are ray-like plug-in boards inserted in a circle on the back, with a diamond-shaped generating device at the end, and a halo of light connects all the plug-in boards.
Make them look like the Buddha with the backlight in someone's hometown Buddhist painting.
However, this group of people are definitely not Buddhas, and the circle of light is not a manifestation of perfect merit. Rather, it seems that after a certain device is activated, the excess energy cannot be effectively used and overflows. To put it simply, it is a
entropy.
As for the function of this device, Lin guessed that it was some kind of anti-gravity device. Because these people were floating in the air without any resistance, and their actions were all carried out off the ground and did not step directly on the ground.
The reason why I didn’t guess about other devices that allow these heavenly beings to float in the air is because they don’t have jet devices on them. Whether this kind of equipment is used or not is quite obvious. At least it is sprayed out to propel the main body.
Air must find a source.
As for the other speculations, they are even more unreasonable. At least none of them can support them flying in from a distance and surrounding someone.
Anti-gravity magic is on the list of apprentice-level magics, which shows that its difficulty of learning is not very high. It is just that it is easy to get started but difficult to master. Very few people can use anti-gravity magic freely, so the magic apprentices in the lost land
If you want to fly freely, you still have to learn the art of flying instead of relying on anti-gravity magic.
But what Lin is really concerned about is that these celestial beings are not like the succubus at the gate of the abyss, who just guessed that there is someone at a certain location, but don't know the precise direction.
The circle formed by heavenly beings clearly knew where someone was, and everyone was staring in the same direction.
However, even though this group of heavenly beings also wore masks, Lin still felt a little bit of unconfidence in their hearts. He was not sure whether there were really people here. A big proof is that they didn't even take out their weapons. Otherwise, someone was blind.
He didn't even recognize the weapons.
Is this a true discovery or a false discovery? Should he take the initiative to jump out? Lin was struggling.
