The Dream of the Century - The War of Faith Chapter 18: When the Orcs Are Not Defeated
[The teleportation is good, I don’t know what magical things will be inside.] Carlin also went to get the necessary rare items, and then returned to Esther and the others, waiting for the teleportation.
"This thing is considered a guarantee, hehe... This is not bad." Amon seemed to have misunderstood something, and seemed to think that the amulet could be used in other places.
"So has the safety and condition of the giant pumice stone we are on been confirmed?" Esther confirmed. [It would be funny if they all ran to the floating island in a swarm, and then their hometown overturned. 】
"You can rest assured that all military personnel will not be dispatched."
But Romani first went to the teleportation circle and memorized the rune sequence of the teleportation circle to avoid accidents. If there was an emergency, he could cast the spell back on his own. At this time, he discovered a very serious problem. Now
Qingfeng Liangxiu, there are no consumables for high-level spell casting... I have to ask Esther for some money first.
"What's the matter? I'm not going to line up to go to the island just yet. There are too many people." Esther looked at Romani, who was coming over timidly.
He was at a loss for words and hesitated for a while before saying: "Boss... can you lend me some money now..."
"How much do you want? You didn't do something you shouldn't have done on the ship and you're trying to make peace with it. And didn't you tell me about the plane of death and let you resell holy water to make extra money?" Esther was very surprised.
.
Perhaps because he had been acting alone for a long time, Noel did not wait for Karin but teleported there first. After all, this guy is also a legendary explorer with no real name - he has been pre-decided, so he can be considered famous.
"But I don't even have start-up capital. Where can I get the money to resell holy water... It takes about 16 Lindsays... In this way, I can buy some consumables for casting spells. Of course, I am willing to give more
It would be even better..."
"Sixteen Lindsays? It's nothing to me, but your employment fee is only one hundred Lindsays, and it doesn't count the golden lamb banquet I treated you to. Forget it, for his sake."
Ster lowered his head and looked at the emblem. He saw that the two young men had misidentified him before, and he had indeed inherited the two weapons, so he regarded it as a way to deal with the aftermath of that guy. "This hundred Lindsay is an advance for you.
I won’t be taken advantage of like this in the future.”
Romani nodded. "Thank you, boss." He quickly accepted the money so that he could make some preparations.
"Then, when he comes back, we will set off?" Karin asked.
"I'm going to buy a wandering scroll. Let's take a look around the boulder outside first. If you don't know how to teleport, you don't have to follow me. So as not to waste the charm." Esther said.
"Okay, I'll wait for you here." Karin slung the gun.
Romani hurriedly said: "Wait a moment, before I go out, I will open a mental link for everyone. Before the end of this spell, you can all communicate with other connectors I selected through the mental link, as long as you are in your position.
There is no distance limit for plane activation, but it cannot be done across planes.
On the other side, Noel used his emblem to send a message to Carlin, saying that he had entered the city.
[Copy that. You should be careful, we will leave soon.] Carlin replied, and Romani spent about ten minutes establishing a spiritual connection with Esther, Carlin, Amon, and himself."
"Then let's go, it's still too boring here. Oh, it turns out you have this useful spell. It's really reliable. I really want to take you with me next time I go to the casino."
After confirming the preparations, food, illustrations, Phil, and considering the cost, Esther decided to explore the floating island for four or eight hours with his temporary hire Romani and his companions.
At present, all other exploration members have landed on the island, except for the necessary left-behind personnel, there are only four people left.
"Let's go too." Amon urged, and the staff at the door of the teleportation room all found a bench to sit down on.
Only then did Esther give the order to set off.
Carlin and the others didn't know where they were going, and Noel didn't pick up the emblem exchange.
The four of them instantly arrived on the floating island a mile away through teleportation. In front of them was a huge alloy city wall, and behind them was a city shield barrier. The gate was a full one hundred and sixty feet high.
Romani exclaimed: "It's really spectacular."
"Does a gate of this height make sense? Or is the race of people living there very special?" Esther checked the soil and vegetation nearby, and also saw if anyone else was still staying nearby. However, it was still far away from the first wave of people.
It's been half an hour.
The ground was completely rocky, with no soil or vegetation. There was no link between the barrier and the city wall, and no people were seen.
I also looked up at this huge city wall to see if there were any traces of patterns on the wall and the gate. The city gate was the most advanced gate, and there were no patterns or anything on the wall.
As for the buildings seen from the city gate, they are basically tower types.
"Others have been in for a while. It seems that the outermost city defense that may exist is no longer effective?" Carlin guessed.
Looking inside from the open city gate, we can see that small buildings are basically above three floors, and each floor is fifteen feet high, which is the height used by normal-sized creatures.
Even the capital of the principality can barely manage to have two floors. The floating cities on the floating island all have three floors upwards.
There seemed to be many shops on both sides of the road where the city gate extended deep into the center. The structure of the street lamps was similar to that of the Severn Floating City that Carlin had seen. The only difference was that there was no one there.
Prosperity in ancient times. But the greater possibility is that there are too many mages." Esther smiled. "Then let's explore the nearby mage towers that may affect the city's defense. Although some colleagues may have started to investigate, and high places can also
You can better see the layout of the city."
Entering the city, Esther planned to find a way up the city wall. Mainly to confirm the layout of the city wall sentry tower and the mage tower inside the city wall, which should generally be linked to the city wall. Although it cannot be ruled out that a certain distance is required to prevent the city wall from directly invading the mage tower.
.But it’s definitely not too far, and there’s an interactive space for the Mage Tower to be effective.
"The buildings here seem to be used by creatures that are about the same height as us. So that door is for other things to enter and exit?" Carlin was thinking about it while following Esther towards the suspected mage.
Walk in the direction of the tower.
"The equipment, and the golem. But I didn't see a place to store the golem nearby." Esther shook his head.
"Maybe it's a split type. Of course, we don't rule out the fact that the people here have special aesthetics. Let's take a look inside the Mage Tower first," Carlin said.
"Maybe it's just for good looks." Romani proposed a bold idea.
"But let's stay away from these things for now, who knows what those spells will do." Amon was the last one to walk through the door.
When the four of them stepped through the city gate and entered the floating city, a powerful spiritual energy swept through their bodies, and a message of spiritual communication was inserted into their minds.
[Military-grade third-generation tower spirit mind detected... Failed to pass identity verification... Error, no report object... Immortal jmd4020 hopes that outsiders will complete identity verification as soon as possible. The arcane core has been overloaded... There is approximately time left before the energy supply unit fails.
It is 0, 0, 1, 2, 14 hours, 3 minutes and 5 seconds... The chaotic magic energy release command is 0x00xx1995x09... The power of the crash explosion will destroy one third of the continent, and the energy level is 160 billion meteor explosions...]
Romani was really shocked by this exaggerated number. "Is this telling us the end of the world?"
"It's similar to an announcement to evacuate the crowd, but we can only move forward and solve the situation. There is no point in running a problem of this level anywhere." Carlin had a headache. This kind of development was broadcast on the spiritual channel.
"Speaking of which, what is the mind of the third-generation tower spirit?" Romani asked. "Just in case, I will open a mage armor first."
"It should be the city's defense agency." Carlin had heard of the tower spirit, an artificial mind that protects the mage tower.
"I hope the defense system of this sky city will not come to us and cause trouble." Romani said after finishing casting the spell.
"Anyway, it's those things about the spell master, probably the third generation of the little magic tower born from the magic tower." Esther said bad words to ease his shock.
"Others should have heard it too, but when we came we didn't see anyone returning to the ship to tell them the relevant information."
"What did you hear?" Phil looked at several people with wide eyes.
"They said that this floating city is low on energy and will crash within ten days. There will be about 160 billion meteor explosions. Didn't you hear that, Phil? It's probably because your energy level is too high and the teleportation is being resisted." Ace
Te explained.
"It seems that we came out late. Everyone on the boat should have received the summons." Carlin hesitated. "It's because they didn't have time or it couldn't be sent out inside."
Romani said: "Perhaps we should now look for where the guys who entered the city before us went." Romani tried to find the footprints of the forerunners, but there was no dust on the ground, so there was no way to find the footprints.
"But I don't have much time to think about other people's problems now. In theory, if there are registered structures, they should be near the city wall. Go to the nearest one first." Esther paused and continued: "Mage
Let’s see if we can register it, and even if we can’t, we might be able to find some other clues.”
"Hmm... Okay." At least be polite so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. This is what Romani thought, so he expressed his support.
I randomly selected a tower-shaped building and walked all the way there without triggering an alarm or anything, but the door was stuck.
"Apply for identity verification." Esther shouted first, but there was no response.
"Which of you who can identify magic should also look at the magic aura." Esther looked at the two spell casters. "Maybe the power supply has stopped completely, so you have to look elsewhere."
[Magic is almost insulated from me...] Carlin came closer and tried to see how the door was stuck. Is there any leak? Then he recognized that the decoration style of the hall inside the door was very similar to that of the Alliance's mercenary industry.
Similar, but the tables, chairs, counters and everything else fell to the floor.
