In less than twenty minutes, Aleister saw the outline of the Ziggurat.
The city of Leipzig is a plain among forests and mountains, with the port in the north.
The Ziggurat itself does not belong to Leipzig, but it is relatively close. It is located to the west of Leipzig and is also located on a vast coastline, surrounded by mist-shrouded forests and rugged mountains.
From the high altitude here, Aleister could clearly see the huge port not far away. All kinds of ships were almost connected in a line, and the huge group of mechanical arms in the port were working continuously.
Work, and some scattered ships were squeezed in here.
There is a large village here close to the mountains and rivers, and you can clearly see many fishing boats going out to sea... For a village, the fishermen are quite wealthy in terms of scale and equipment.
People on the ground are obviously aware of Aleister's existence.
As she gradually descended, she glided past from high in the sky - the fishermen all raised their heads and pointed at Aleister in the sky.
The Ziggurat is located on the mountain behind this village.
It was a pitch-black sky-high tower, with dim yellow runes shining in the gaps... It gave people the feeling that if they hit it, they would surely explode an epic piece.
From Aleister's perspective, one can clearly see the dense white ghosts surrounding the pillar like snakes, and the white smoke gradually rises and disappears, circulating back and forth, just like breathing.
In fact, this is indeed the case.
The ziggurat itself is not completely static. If the video record of the ziggurat for a whole day can be saved through photography and accelerated to be played within ten seconds, you can clearly see that the ziggurat is constantly moving.
Creeping.
Because it is "alive". In other words, the Ziggurat itself is a huge dead spirit, and its backbone is made of the vertebrae abandoned by Lingbo Tiansi in the past.
——This is also the reason why the Ziggurat can be moved at will.
In the imperial era, the ziggurat was not here. The undead did not like water, so the ziggurat of the past was in the hinterland of the entire empire - which is now the capital of the Iris Kingdom and the location of Arc Moon Manor.
It was precisely because the principal of the ziggurat defected to the first Valentine that he drove the ziggurat directly to the small place of Star Antimony. Although the area of Star Antimony is definitely larger than Avalon, it is not even as famous as it was in the past.
A quarter of the size of the Rasl Empire when it disintegrated.
Aleister landed safely in front of the ziggurat.
"really not bad……"
She praised and touched Leviathan's chin.
Finally having his own mount made Aleister quite satisfied.
Aiwass had an idea before - about whether to seal Selene into a beast of sin. But at that time, he gave up considering that Selene, as a moon witch, lacked combat effectiveness.
They both belong to the path of love, and they also have the attribute of water... How about accepting Leviathan as a big beast?
Aleister was really moved.
But she still planned to ask Aiwass first - although she is now the Sin Scholar, it was Aiwass who ultimately used the Sin Beast.
As the Son of the Moon, Aleister's mana attributes are wind, earth, and dark, so she can occupy a wind attribute position; if the King of the Wild Hunt occupies an earth attribute position, the remaining free positions are actually only
The properties of light and water.
The red-handled sword contains the soul of a paladin, which may be regarded as a light attribute... If the remaining water attribute position is left to Leviathan, then they will have mounts when they go out in the future!
And this is my own child, so don’t worry...
As if sensing Aleister's affection, Sharkshak let out a sharp whistle-like roar and shook his head with great satisfaction.
Although Leviathan can talk, she apparently prefers to chirp.
While Aleister touched Leviathan, he looked at the ziggurat.
In all senses, this can be regarded as a giant building. It can probably be regarded as a kind of beggar's version of a giant tree... It is the kind where each floor is more than a little smaller than the giant tree, and the height is also reduced a lot.
of giant trees.
But even on its first floor, its area is quite astonishing - its area is roughly equivalent to a business district building, but it is far less than the area of a university campus. But if you include the height of these floors,
Added up, it looks amazing.
There could be an entire Star Antimony filled with Necromancers inside.
As a result of their concentrated practice of necromancy, they also attracted a large amount of power from the Dusk Path.
The entrance to the ziggurat is like a fairyland, with a cold and moist white mist spreading on the ground. It looks like someone has placed dry ice nearby...
"In the past, the fog here was not only as short as your calves."
At the entrance of the ziggurat, an old man in black robes said slowly: "If it weren't for those gryphon knights striking thunder here... the mist accumulated here would be higher than the trees in the forest. It would be really hard to see.
Five fingers..."
"...I'm quite glad that their thunder didn't set the forest on fire."
Aleister complained.
"Why not?"
The old man crossed his arms and sneered: "It is because of our preservation skills... and the low temperature of these undead fogs that we can contain the forest fire."
As he spoke, he glanced at the little crow held in Aleister's arms, and then at the ferocious and violent Leviathan. Youyou said, "I guess you are not here to go to school, little girl."
"really."
Aleister nodded, then asked politely: "Excuse me, are you...?"
"You can call me Adolf."
This old man with a very high hairline and almost bald head answered directly: "I am the vice principal of this school."
Aleister immediately knew the other party's identity.
There will only be one vice-chancellor in the Ziggurat, who is now the Black Prime Minister - Adolf von Menzel.
"...Do you usually come to welcome newcomers in person?"
Aleister was a little helpless.
"Generally speaking, no. I would rather take a nap."
The old man crossed his arms and said unceremoniously: "But I heard that someone wanted to poach someone, so I came back quickly."
"Who is so rude?"
"The Royal Agent in the Chamber of Secrets - I am acting under orders, Miss Crawley. Please don't give me any trouble."
Vice-principal Adolf glanced at the crow in Aleister's arms again and said without hesitation: "If you came here for this reason, then please come back."
He clearly felt the pressure from the crow.
Obviously, Albert's plan to run away to Avalon could not be hidden from the Vault. His sudden resignation was so unusual that he must have been closely watched by the agents of the Vault.
I'm afraid that as soon as he told Adolf about this, the other person in the secret room immediately knew about it.
There might even be someone watching their conversation right now!
"I'm not here to poach people."
So Aleister smiled and did not bother Adolf: "I just have something to do with the 'headmaster' - I have a letter of introduction from Cardinal Cyril of the Theocracy."
"That's no problem."
Adolf smiled and let Aleister in: "The principal just woke up from his deep sleep not long ago. He might be happy to hear the news about his old friend...
"Well, let's come in with this kid. He's quite cute. What's his name?"
"Leviathan," Aleister said proudly, "this is my daughter - biological. Blood related."
"Hmm...ah?"
The old man responded subconsciously, then paused and was stunned for a moment.
He looked back at Aleister, who looked only fourteen or fifteen years old, and repeated confusedly: "Huh?"
