A thunder suddenly sounded, and Encyclopedia, who was bowing his head in thought, was startled and almost fell to the ground. The kitten next to him glanced at him with disgust, which made the young man with brown skin, thick eyebrows and black eyes touch him in embarrassment.
He touched his nose and pursed his lips.
"Is there any danger?"
Sine asked Drifter nervously in a low voice.
The wanderer shook his head in confusion: "No."
"Really not?"
Sine asked reluctantly.
Originally, he looked down on these mercenaries at all. Spells can also simulate prophecy. After all, astrology was also the domain of mages in ancient times. If it were in the past, he would rather waste mana than have to do divination to see the results.
But now, his previous staff has been scrapped.
Sine removed the gem from the top of the staff, extracted the spare mana stored inside, and held the shell in his hand as a secondary magic weapon.
Although it can also increase the casting range and reduce the chanting time, it no longer has the function of reducing mana consumption. And he just used a big spell that poured all the mana in his body, and now even if he extracts the life-saving backup mana at the bottom of the box,
There are only a pitiful dozen units of mana left, probably only enough for two or three spells.
In this case, Sine really doesn't know what else he can do if he follows...
——I am a mage and I have no magic power anymore. Why don’t you let me go?
But there was nothing he could do. His Majesty the Pope himself spoke and ordered him to follow. Then he had no choice but to follow.
Sine also secretly regretted it in his heart. If he had known that he had to follow until the end, he would not have been so wasteful in casting spells.
Now that I think about it carefully, he has used an excessive amount of mana on several previous spells. For example, when facing those puppets when entering the door, he did not need to use so much mana. The opponent was already under control, and he could use low-level spells.
Solve the problem...
It's just that Sine felt that if he, a great mage of the fourth level, used small spells to solve problems, wouldn't it look like he was low-end? Therefore, for the sake of face, he directly used two fourth-level wizards in the battle when he entered.
The spell consumes a quarter of the mana in the body.
...He finally knows now why Zhu Tang and Mu Mingming are so powerful, but they always have to conserve their strength.
Mages are very smart, but he lacks experience in such high-end combat. With this experience, he can learn a more correct way of fighting - as long as he can return alive, the experience can be used next time.
Drifter also felt strange.
It was clear that just when the lift platform reached the ninth floor, he felt a strong sense of fear that made his whole body numb, but it was like an hallucination, and it completely dissipated before he tried to capture the source of the fear. This usually means that the crisis is about to turn around.
Ephemeral... Usually this is the reaction when a strong man or big shot has a moment of murderous intent towards him.
At this time, the ninth floor has arrived.
This is the top floor, but everything above has been destroyed. Only a few fragments of the shell are left.
Even on the ninth floor, almost nothing is left - under the persistent blowing of the strong wind, only the weathered ruins of the walls are left.
The first floor of the Tower of Babel is almost as high as the tenth floor of the building outside. It has already reached the sky. Looking down through the tattered walls from here can even make people afraid of heights.
...However, there is no one here on the ninth floor, only the sky that has turned gloomy at some point and the roaring thunder.
The huge sun that was originally seen outside has been hidden by the dark clouds, and the sky has completely darkened.
And the scale of the dark clouds was extremely astonishing - they looked layer upon layer, like black dragons swimming in the clouds, and like a tornado approaching.
"...There won't be another thunder, right?"
Encyclopedia is a little uneasy.
The Drifter breathed a sigh of relief and urged Master Chongbo rudely: "Go and find what you are looking for - it is too high here, and a gust of wind may blow us out!"
"That's right," Sine nodded and added, "The higher you go, the more deadly the wind is."
Light Amber - No one knows the value of that thing at all. I am afraid that only Master Insect Amber would value it so much.
Chongbo nodded, closed his eyes and felt for a while, then walked in one direction.
Aiwass, on the other hand, lagged behind without a trace.
He glanced at Cardinal Galatea, who understood and covered the two of them with illusions: "You can speak now, but they can't hear."
"...It's so useful, this illusion ability."
Aiwass sighed first, and then asked: "Didn't you say that the ninth floor will allow me to see what I want to see?"
"Um."
Cardinal Galatea nodded slightly and responded softly.
She stretched out her cold and dry fingers and lightly touched the wall. But she didn't feel anything.
——When she was still a fish, she would feel pain. If she touched this place with wet hands, she would feel a numbing electric shock, which was like a light sting.
She turned back slightly and looked towards the ninth floor.
In her hallucination, she seemed to see that this place was still intact and sealed. The Winged Ones and the Scaled Ones were busy here for their common great achievements.
That was what happened after the former King of the Winged Ones killed the giant sky-eating beast Nibiru and was crowned the Winged One.
At that time, the Heavenly Powers had not yet been eliminated, and both the Pillar Gods and Tiansi were walking in the material world. On the contrary, it became difficult to enter the dream world. Many Tiansi had been killed and taken away by others before they had even gone to the dream world.
The Winged Ones were an extremely powerful race. Without the threat of Nibiru, and with the protection of the Winged Sky, they created a great civilization.
——Tower of Babel.
All the winged ones who yearn for the sky gather here. They are piled up layer after layer, getting closer and closer to the sky.
The Atlanteans, who created civilization from the bottom of the sea, were once devoured by giant sky-eating beasts. Now that the war is over, they finally dare to return to the earth again. The Winged Ones accepted them, and their civilizations gradually merged...
…even new creatures with wings and scales were born.
However, starting from the ninth level, almost only those with wings can live in the higher places. This is not because of the class gap between them, but because if they live too high, it will be inconvenient for the scaly ones to return to the sea.
.
"You should have read the Morning Crow Tantra, Your Majesty."
Cardinal Galatea said softly: "The first sun fell before life was born and never rose again; the second sun was killed and shattered by sacrifices and words, turning into stars in the silent night...
"
Aiwass nodded slightly: "The Mithraic school of Horus believes that a solar calendar is twenty-six thousand years, which is a 'big year'. Because of the precession movement, there will always be subtle changes in the constellations.
It comes back almost every 26,000 years.
"We are currently in the Pisces Era, which is when the sun sets in Pisces at the Spring Equinox. It began about two thousand years ago... almost when the Ego ascended to the Pillar God.
"The Horus believe that humankind has a long history, which can be traced back at least ten thousand years ago. They believe that human history begins with the Leo Era, and some others believe that it begins with the Libra Era...that is, 13,000 years ago.
A thousand years or twenty thousand years ago."
"Six or eight?"
Cardinal Galatea smiled: "Adapt or transcend...or maybe nine, nine is always the limit."
Aiwass nodded and followed Galatea: "I am inclined to the theory of the origin of Libra. Because the third sun ignited the sun under the persuasion of the Sand Clock, and both the Sand Clock and Libra are balanced.
.The sun is hatched by the scales...perhaps this is a metaphor."
"When Taurus dies, Aries is born... This statement is not bad, and it even calculates some truth about the solar calendar."
Galatea sighed: "However, Aries is not the sun, but darkness; the death of Taurus is not the end of the second sun. The death of the second sun is much earlier than that. To think so, it is
Because Aries is the 'third sun that should have been born', it has a name...
"—It's called Mithras."
"Mithras..." Aiwass murmured.
"Well, according to this calendar calculation...the death of the second sun is actually the sun in Gemini. The lightless six thousand years that the elves spent were the path of devotion with the sacred number of three.
"And in the age of Gemini...haha, isn't that when a pair of 'Gemini's" were born?"
Galatea looked back at Aiwass and said meaningfully: "Just like the age of Pisces, a pair of 'Pisces' were also born."
She had obviously recalled Huan Tiansi's appearance.
At that moment, she knew Aiwass's identity. This was also the reason why she no longer respected His Majesty the Pope.
Although the Pope is someone who needs respect, Huan Tiansi is her enemy.
Although I know in my heart that they are not the same person, or even hostile...but after all, they look exactly the same, and PTSD is normal.
And Aiwass was also calculating quickly in his mind.
In other words, the calculations of the Amber Calendar and the Constant Calendar are really related to the astrology and the sun - the Constant Calendar is the Age of Pisces, and the limit of everything is nine... So, could it be that the beginning of the Amber Age is Libra?
——The end of the world in 2000, that is the official arrival of the Age of Aquarius! And from there, in order, are Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, and the first four are Libra... The last one, counting, happens to be
Ninth. Perhaps the death of the first sun is related to the age of Libra...
"But if we say that the birth of the third sun is related to the sand timepiece... the second sun died with the arrival of the Gemini era... the twins were cut by the sand timepiece..."
Aiwass murmured in a low voice: "Jedi Tiantong happened after the collapse of the Tower of Babel, and the Second Sun died of sacrifice and language..."
He gradually opened his eyes.
He suddenly remembered something.
Sand Clock has a scholar side and a businessman side - when he commissioned Sand Clock to cut himself, there was actually a price. It was not free... but the price was paid by the boss.
So, what price did Weizhe and Supreme Heaven pay in the first place...?
"The Second Sun...is the price paid by the 'Twins'?"
Aiwass murmured: "That's why the Second Sun will be destroyed when the 'Gemini Age' comes..."
"You realize it."
Galatea nodded: "Very good, as expected...another 'snake'. Or do you still have some memories left?"
As her voice fell, the sky became increasingly gloomy.
Endless storms seem to be gathering on the other side...
She watched this scene with some nostalgia and some fear: "I couldn't experience this moment personally, but when I woke up... the sun had broken. At that time, Tiansi and Zhushen were all expelled to the dream world.
The material world is empty, with only the power below the sixth energy level remaining. Even if it comes into contact with the sixth energy level, it will be suppressed by the endless force of balance and unable to move. People can no longer directly obtain power from the material world, but
Need to 'dream'...
"With transcendence and fall, the world has been divided into upper and lower. Since then, the blurry and chaotic world has been divided into two, and the gap between the material world and the dream world has become clear.
"The sun is a wound in the sky, so destroying the second sun means...
"The wound is healed - He has patched up the sky so that the source river no longer flows into the material world.
