The treacherous world, the Catacombs of Falling Stars.
The gray mist is floating in the area, which is like a cave space. The passages are sometimes narrow and sometimes wide, just like the cave spaces all over this large area.
A small one may only be as big as an underground parking lot, which is extremely cramped. A strong person can directly penetrate the space layer.
However, just a cave space may be larger than an ordinary world, containing mountains, rivers, forests and other environments.
But, after all, it is a mysterious world.
The mountains are bare, the rocks are rugged, the rivers are a dead gray color, making people afraid to step into them, and the forests are just dead trees, which look weird, with their teeth and claws spread out like devils.
Only the crystal stones that diffused a faint brilliance and were embedded in the spatial layer of the cave added a bit of magnificent color to the dead environment here.
"However, these falling star crystals can only be used as decorations and have no function themselves."
In the carriage, the three princesses were still in high spirits, as if a tour guide was introducing the unique landforms of the Falling Star Cave to Hitina.
The Falling Star Crystal is the most peculiar landform here.
"These crystals themselves are very hard, and it would take an inhuman-level expert to destroy them. Mining these crystals... Many people have tried it before, but after being mined, these crystals lose their magical power.
No matter how bright it is, it is no longer hard, but is like an ordinary stone, worse than the lowest mysterious materials."
"It is said that this is because the Falling Star Crystal was originally embedded in the space of the Falling Star Cave, so it had all kinds of magical properties. After leaving it, it returned to its original appearance."
This kind of legend is known to almost everyone in the Falling Star Catacombs, so it is not a secret.
For people from other lands, it is probably relatively new.
However, Hitina lost interest.
She has no interest in the legend of the Fallen Star Cave, the tourist guide to the Fallen Star City, or the customs evaluation. She has this time to improve her strength to the point where she can one day take revenge on the evil god!
She didn't dare to think about it. No one had ever dared to think of dealing with the evil god.
but,
After experiencing the power of her mentor, a slight delusion arose in Xitina's heart. What if there really was a chance? She was willing to do anything for this chance that might not exist.
Because of its own organization, Xinhuo’s purpose is to continue humankind and...
"Your Royal Highness, Your Majesty, we are about to arrive at Starlight Fortress."
Outside the curtain, the voice of the guard captain Zell came.
Interrupting the chattering words of the third princess.
Hitina finally breathed a sigh of relief.
at the same time,
Far away in Blue Star Shuize City, Fang You also received a notification from Xiao Huan - the news that Hitina was about to arrive in the City of Falling Stars.
He immediately returned to the secret base and his fourth-level dormitory.
I made a cup of tea, grabbed some melon seeds and peanuts, and then switched my view to Hitina.
"Starlight Fortress? It is said that it is the trading city of Falling Star City, the Pearl of Falling Star. It is also the only city in Falling Star City open to the outside world."
Well, Fang You learned a lot about the City of Falling Stars from the mouth of the Third Princess.
It's hard to say, but he may be more familiar with the City of Falling Stars than Yi Yue Luxi and other senior officials of the Great Oasis, theoretically.
The city of Falling Star has the word "city" in its name, but in fact, it is a country.
A huge country composed of multiple ordinary oases, large oases, and super oases.
Among them, Falling Star City is the capital, the core of the entire "Falling Star City" and where its heritage lies. "Xinghui Fortress" is the second most prosperous city and the gateway to foreign trade. The business here may be more developed than the capital "Falling Star City"
, there are many chambers of commerce, and some of the large chambers of commerce have the ability to travel far into the treacherous world, and often conduct business between the City of Falling Stars and other large oases.
As for how many cities and oases there are in the City of Falling Star?
The third princess didn't say anything about this, but Fang You also got some information from Yi Yue Luxi.
It is generally rumored that there are eight, but the specific location is where they are distributed. This is the secret of the City of Fallen Stars. Very little is known about large oases like the Blackstone Alliance.
Fang You is also very curious about such a prosperous place and overlord power.
at this time,
Perhaps Hitina was also curious, or perhaps she couldn't bear to be in the same space as the Third Princess, so she also stepped out of the carriage and moved forward with the convoy.
There was still gray fog floating in front of them, and there was heavy mist in the distance. As the convoy moved forward, the surrounding gray fog was quickly dispersed by the candlelight on the chariot, and was driven hundreds of meters away. The vegetation was clearly visible within the range, and the gray fog outside the range was like a wall.
.
Looking at the wall of gray fog,
A sliver of golden flame ignited in the depths of Xitina's eyes, and she could easily see through the thick gray fog, allowing a certain instructor to share this vision.
only,
The field of vision was empty, with only a few bare mountain peaks or towering building ruins vaguely visible. There was not a single shadow of the magnificent city and fortress, and it was still extremely quiet in front of it, without any appearance of being inhabited.
The group in Falling Star City didn't find it strange.
They just gradually became happy, excited, and a little impatient. They wanted to return to a safe environment, eat a big meal, sleep peacefully, and wash their bodies.
The third princess was no longer talkative at this time.
The team gradually accelerated.
Suddenly,
Hitina's pupils shrank slightly, and with the golden flames burning deep in her eyes, she saw the outline of a majestic city appearing in the gray mist in the distance.
However, it was not there just a moment ago.
Appears suddenly?
No, it's not sudden. The city has always been there, but the view was limited before, as if it was blocked by something. But just now, when I turned a corner and bypassed the obstruction, the city appeared in front of me.
Although, the team has been moving in a straight line.
As it approached, the oppressive feeling of the towering city came to my face.
Fang You has seen the huge wall of Sword Flower City, but compared with the wall of Xinghui Fortress, it is nothing to mention. This wall is at least a hundred meters high, and it is dotted with protruding prismatic crystals.
, diffuses a faint brilliance, if I have to say it, it is a bit similar to...
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The crystal stone in the Falling Star Crypt.
Behind the majestic city wall, you can still vaguely see a towering spire building in the city, which is probably the highest point of the fortress. On top of it is a magnificent gem like a star, spreading out a faint starlight.
The gray fog gradually thinned, and sparse green appeared on the dry land, with wisps of sunlight shining down. Suddenly, it was like returning from hell to the human world.
When we came under this towering city wall, there was even more smoke and fire.
Under the wide city cave, the gate was half-opened, and a convoy of chambers of commerce was slowly entering, registering, queuing up, and entering.
But the convoy of the three princesses naturally did not need to line up. When the emblem representing the royal family of the City of Falling Stars appeared on the side of the chariot, there was an uproar among the defenders and caravans.
The caravan obediently gave way.
The defenders lined up to greet him.
This is the weight of the royal name of the City of Falling Stars, the name of the royal family of Falling Stars that has been passed down for thousands of years!
For the existence of myths, that is meaningless, but for myths, the Falling Star Royal Family is like heaven.
After entering the city, Hitina declined the banquet invitation from the third princess.
Regarding the residence arranged for her by the Third Princess, Hitina thought about it and agreed.
"Sister, if you have any requests, just ask. Our Star Fortress has most of the things..."
For example, there are not only male and female waiters, but also very rare non-human waiters. These are mostly fantasy species living in the mysterious world.
"There are flower fairies, smurfs, and minotaurs, but fantasy creatures are very rare, and we don't have many in the city of fallen stars. There are also some fantasy species that are very powerful. When I was a child, I saw a species called '
The gluttonous beast's epic species is said to have the strength of five and six awakenings as an adult."
"However, this apparently powerful gluttonous beast seemed to have become extinct later on. There are only a few mentions in ancient books, so it's not clear. It just seems... that it was hunted."
The third princess shook her head.
How is that possible?
A high-level fantasy species like the Gluttonous Behemoth might have a mythical existence in a group. Even if they were discovered by the City of Fallen Stars, they would not dare to arrest them.
Moreover, their Falling Star City captures relatively common fantasy species such as flower fairies and smurfs, and keeping them in captivity is useful.
Hunting? It’s weird to think about.
It may be recorded in ancient books, and there may be errors and omissions.
"However, that ancient book also mentioned a legendary species, the 'Illusory Spirit'. It is said that they travel between illusion and reality, and the traces of their existence cannot be verified... Then there is really only legend left."
Unconsciously, the third princess said a lot more.
Hitina was quite interested in these, so she listened to them, but...
"There's no need for a waiter. I like to be quiet."
"Oh, sister, please wait a moment. I have to go back to Falling Star City. It will take about a few days to go back and forth."
"Um……"
Hitina has no objection.
It takes some time to accept the instructor's teachings. I don't know if a few days will be enough.
She followed a maid who led the way and arrived at the most high-end 'hotel' in the Star Fortress. Here stood exquisite and elegant attics, with falling star crystals diffusing a faint glow.
In the attic, special incense is burning, which has the effect of calming the mind and meditating.
The flowers and trees planted around are also somewhat extraordinary.
All of this shows that the luxury of the City of Falling Stars and the Star Fortress is not on the same level as the Grand Oasis where life is still relatively 'poor'.
Hitina pushed the door open and entered, spreading her spiritual thoughts and scanning the inside and outside.
Looking at the gorgeous bathtub, she felt a little moved in her thoughts. She thought about it and suppressed it. She was already at the level of a myth, and her body was almost clean. Besides, it was not the time to rest yet.
Gotta do the right thing.
Hitina called out the name of her mentor in her mind, with anticipation in her eyes.
Half a ring, half a ring,
Finally got a reply from the instructor.
"Adjust your status and I will grant you several inherited skills."
"No need to worry, it will be done soon."
That gentle voice echoed in my heart.
Hitina swallowed, suppressed her restless heart, and waited.
It was as if on the day of awakening, the blurry face of the mentor appeared in front of him, and he stretched out a finger and touched it gently.
