Chapter 331: Jessel City and the Royal City of the People of the Demonic Abyss
There is no up, down, left, or right here. When you travel through this space, you feel like you are constantly rotating.
Loss of control, emptiness, fear, and loneliness surround me.
Oran felt as if he was being swallowed by darkness, melting bit by bit, and feeling dizzy.
He wanted to leave here, but he couldn't find the direction. There was nothing stopping him, but he couldn't take a step forward.
Because no matter where you go, it seems to be spinning.
Even if I try my best to keep pushing forward, I still feel like I am standing still, without any feeling or response of moving forward.
"This is the dream world!"
"I'm lost in a dream world."
The collision of powers between the Evil God of Original Sin and the God of Alchemy directly tore apart the temporarily formed dark place, and Olan was unfortunately thrown directly into the dream world.
This is not the first time that Oran has entered here. He has traveled through dreams with Saint Raphael before.
only.
In the eyes of the fairies in the forest, the dream world is like a city full of coordinates and alleys; they can run around the city and shuttle through the alleys as much as they want.
Occasionally break through the alleys and city gates, and you can see the people coming and going at the crossroads and the beautiful wilderness hillsides.
All kinds of prosperous scenes in the world.
It's fun, like a fun exploration and adventure.
But when it was really Olan's turn, he realized that the dream world is a terrible place, there is nothing here.
There is no direction, no coordinates, and no way out.
Once you get lost in it, you'll just have to wait for death.
Olan moved around in the dream world hesitantly and confused. He didn't even know if he was moving.
suddenly.
He saw a bright light in the distance, and he immediately rushed over excitedly.
In this boundless darkness, any bit of light makes people feel that it is a place of hope.
However, when he caught the ray of light, he could only show a wry smile.
What he grabbed was a stone, and Olan felt it looked extremely familiar.
"It turns out to be Elena's heart."
This was his old friend, but it was completely useless at this time.
This stone has been with him for decades, but it cannot free him from the trap of the dream world.
Olan was a little frustrated.
"I'm dying?"
"I didn't expect that he would die in this way."
Olan clearly didn't fight against the gods, let alone go to the theater, but turned around and ran away; he didn't die in the aftermath of the fight between the gods, so he seemed quite lucky.
However, the aftermath of the battle between the gods pushed him into the sea and drowned him alive.
This ending filled Oran with a sense of powerlessness.
But at this time, his wood-turned heart suddenly emitted light.
Olan immediately lowered his head and looked over, doubts in his eyes.
"Why did it suddenly turn on?"
When Olan raised his head again, he suddenly saw another light spot appearing in the vast dream world.
The light spot seemed to be attracting him and calling him.
"Is something shining again?"
Oran lifted up his Divine Contract Lamp, and the lamp spirit hovered beneath him, flying away with him into the distance.
Getting closer.
He saw that the light spot continued to enlarge, and slowly turned into a door leading to the outside of the dream world.
outside the door.
It’s a storage wonderland.
Olan became excited, of course he knew who opened the door for him.
"It's Saint Raphael."
The forest fairy Saint Raphael opened a passage for Oran to welcome him back from the dream world.
Aa Lan had a smile on his face, and then accelerated forward.
Gradually.
He saw the shadow of Saint Raphael.
Saint Raphael is standing on the white storage tower at the moment. You can see storage grids flying up behind her from time to time, then moving and sinking.
She was waving towards Oran, holding on to the wall at the top of the tower and tiptoeing.
Occasionally she would jump up and open her mouth as if shouting something.
It's just that Oran is too far away and I can't hear clearly at all.
It wasn't until he was completely close that he heard it clearly.
"faster."
"faster."
"It's so tiring to keep the door open."
Olan jumped out and landed on the top of the white storage tower.
Escape from death.
When he came in, it was like stepping into a grand ceremony or party.
Shadows wearing golden blouses hovered in the sky.
They continue to sprinkle colorful ribbons in the sky, dragging colorful smoke, turning the entire storage wonderland into colorful.
"oh!"
"Look at me."
"I'll have a big one too."
On the white storage tower, forest fairies wearing garlands stood in groups, curiously looking at the storage grids and riding up and down the storage grids.
Some forest fairies are still trying to talk to those storage spirits.
This was the first time that Olan saw so many forest fairies. As for the noisy figure flying in the sky, he also had some guesses.
"So many people!"
“So lively.”
Today seems to be a special day, there are many "people" coming to the Storage Wonderland.
After seeing Olan, many curious eyes followed him, but no one else recognized him, and no one came forward to talk to him.
Saint-Raphael drew circle after circle, closing the door that had been opened to its limit.
Then he turned to look at Oran.
"In order to let you see, I deliberately opened the door wider. You are so slow!"
"Just come here now."
Saint Raphael stuck out his tongue: "I'm exhausted."
Saint Raphael chattered endlessly and was excited to see Oran again.
She patted Oran on the shoulder: "It turns out that after mortals say they'll see you again, they really will see you again."
Oran shrugged: "Because fate favors me."
Saint Raphael moved his eyebrows twice, pursed his lips and said, "It's because I'm protecting you."
Oran immediately thought of this question, and he was very curious.
"What are you putting in my heart?"
San Rafael smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you before?"
"I also specifically asked my friends. Now that I know you are not a prop, you can still be saved."
"And I've wondered a long time ago if I could help you become a human again."
"I know you really want it."
"Olan!"
"So I found a fairy I know and made a tailor-made heart for you to replace your original heart of Elena."
"But I didn't know how to take out your original heart, so I put it in your body, thinking that if one day you can get rid of the shackles of Elena's heart, then it can turn you into a human again.
.”
San Rafael scratched his head: "But I don't know if it's possible, so I didn't tell you."
"And in addition to that, it can also protect you."
"As long as you are not fatally injured, it will protect you and prevent you from dying."
Oran was very moved: "Thank you, Saint Raphael."
San Rafael was very proud: "Do you know who made it?"
Saint Raphael pointed to a goblin behind him: "He made it."
The goblin grabbed a balloon and fell from a high place.
He raised his head proudly.
seems to be saying.
That's right, that's me.
This is the first time Oran has seen the legendary race of goblins, which is even rarer than the fairies in the forest.
I heard Saint Raphael say that all fairies can also be called ancient fairies, and they all come from the previous era.
These goblins may not look powerful, just like children.
But their existence is even longer than the gods on earth.
The goblin added for Oran: "It's not a one-time thing!"
"It can be used once a year. As long as you don't get hit directly in the head or heart, you can reorganize your body immediately."
[Miracle Item·Olan’s Wooden Heart]
【Serial number 107】
[This strange heart carved from wood was made by the storage fairy Saint Raphael and asked by the fairies as a gift to her former doll Oran.]
[This is a wooden heart that can be integrated into a living object. After being integrated into the blood, it will recognize its owner and anchor. When the host suffers major devastating trauma, it will recover all injuries at a miraculous speed. It has been used once
It will take a long time to regain strength afterwards.】
Very magical and powerful props.
But it also has obvious weaknesses, and it is not the so-called immortality.
But no matter what, this kind of power still shocked Oran.
"The Fairy's Miracle Technique!"
"It's really amazing, it's really a miracle."
The goblin answered.
"It's because you were not turned into a prop in the first place. You still have flesh and blood tissue in your body. It was only eroded by the power of the law of Elena's heart that you were temporarily transformed into a doll."
"Only a miracle can turn you into a snake man again. If you are really a puppet, there is no way to restore it."
After saying that, the goblin left Olan, a boring person.
"alright!"
"I'm going to play."
"No, I have to get down to business and complete the storage wonderland."
It flew into the sky and filled the sky in the Storage Wonderland.
Other forest fairies planted rainbow trees in the fairyland, as if preparing for a grand ceremony.
Saint Raphael, the forest fairy, then started talking to Oran, but before she could speak, Oran spoke first.
"Are you going to become the fourth level?"
San Rafael nodded.
"kindness!"
"I have collected enough prayer light. As long as I upgrade the Storage Wonderland to the Kingdom of Creation God, I can directly control the power of space."
"In the future, you can make space props that can directly open the storage grid in Wonderland. You don't have to go to the Rainbow Tree Hole to get things like you do now."
"From now on, you can take out the things stored in me anywhere."
Saint Raphael smiled: "From now on, I will be the real storage fairy."
Oran understands better what this means.
Saint Raphael is leaving this world and returning to her hometown.
The rainbow wonderland of the Creator God’s kingdom.
Olan had a lot to say, and finally thought about it for a long time.
He only said one sentence: "Congratulations."
Storage Fairy Saint Raphael nodded and said.
"I gotta go!"
"Returning to the Kingdom of Creation God."
Oran lowered his head and did not look at Saint Raphael.
Then he turned around and looked at the other people around him, the fairies and fairies in the rainbow wonderland.
No wonder the Storage Wonderland is so busy today.
It turns out that all the forest fairies and goblins came to welcome Saint Raphael back.
Oran was a little sad at first, but when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but be happy for Saint Raphael.
"Saint Raphael, it turns out you really have many friends."
Saint-Raphael immediately beamed: "Of course, I said I have many friends."
"Although you are no longer my doll, you will always be my friend."
Oran asked Saint-Raphael: "Do you write letters to your friends?"
"A friend who is not around but is far away."
Saint-Raphael raised his head and straightened his chest: "I am the Storage Fairy, not the Letter Fairy."
"I only accept gifts."
San Rafael reminded Oran: "You still owe me a gift that you haven't given me yet?"
Oran deliberately put his hand to his mouth and whispered: "So, the things placed in the storage grid are all gifts from mortals to the storage fairy Saint Raphael?"
Saint Raphael immediately became anxious: "How can you say it?"
After a while of fussing.
The two of them laughed together.
On the Gold Coast.
Olan, who became alive again, raised his head and watched the entire storage wonderland fly up in the distance.
Take this island with you and escape from this world together.
In the endless sky, the clouds were pushed away to form a vortex, sucking the storage wonderland into it.
Its final destination is the Kingdom of the Creator.
Oran kept waving his hands until the entrance to the sky completely disappeared.
Last time.
It was Oran who left, and Saint-Raphael saw him off.
This time, it was Oran who was bidding farewell to San Rafael.
The strange phenomena in the sky completely disappeared, and the clouds gradually returned, filling the void.
Olan turned around and headed in the direction of the Golden City.
It's not over yet.
In the human world, in the land of the rising sun, he still has more things to do——
The Kingdom of Creation God.
The Storage Wonderland ascended to the Dreamland Continent, and Saint Raphael chose the last place to land on the easternmost coast of the Dreamland Continent. When the sun rises in the Dreamland every day, her Wonderland and the White Tower can be bathed in the first ray of light.
The Dreamland Continent also became richer and more colorful as the number of fairylands increased.
that day.
Almost all the dream fairies and forest nymphs came to the storage wonderland to visit the white storage tower of San Rafael and play on the golden beach.
Tables were placed on the beach, and a row of rainbow trees grew on the ground.
The fairies held a tea party under the rainbow tree, and the protagonist was Saint Raphael.
Saint-Raphael spoke with a distinctly her own style.
"I didn't lie."
"When I was in the human world..."
Saint Raphael's movements were exaggerated, and she told her deeds in the human world in a completely exaggerated way.
What was originally an ordinary and smooth trip has turned into a thrilling adventure, full of ups and downs and crises.
Even the bugs encountered on the road seem to be dyed with a mysterious color; some dark jungles have become the dark forests of mysterious evil wizards.
The blue sea is filled with various unknown and mysterious adjectives, as if she has really explored the deepest part of the sea; the guiding ghosts she meets on the road who belong to the kingdom of truth have become evidence of her intelligence and wisdom.
Although the fairies knew that there must be some exaggeration, they still listened with rapt attention.
And this time.
No one noticed the dark shadow passing over the earth, covering it from the end of the sky.
The black shadow crossed the ground and climbed up the white storage tower.
A little girl wearing a light-colored inner shirt, a dark button-down stand-collar dress, pencil pants and leather boots appeared on the white tower and walked towards the interior of the white storage tower.
The constantly moving white storage tower is like a maze, and ordinary people can't find their way in it.
But the other party rushed directly to the innermost place, looking for his target.
"God said he put a treasure inside."
The little girl's eyes were bright and clear, and my curiosity was clearly written on her face.
"I want to see what kind of treasure it is."
The Lord of Life searched for a while, and the countless storage grids around him were constantly moving in an alternating cycle. The last storage grid stopped in front of the Lord of Life.
It was a large square grid, like a stone box.
The box is sealed.
But this obviously couldn't stop Sally.
Sally showed a wicked smile, and the black shadow behind her twisted.
A terrifying black shadow emerged, grabbed the storage compartment, and opened it.
The other end.
The storage fairy who was participating in a tea party on the beach also felt something and immediately turned back to look at her white storage tower.
Let out a loud cry.
"not good!"
"There is a thief."
Saint Raphael was anxious. He didn't understand why there were thieves coming to steal things when he was already in the Kingdom of God of Creation.
In the white storage tower, Sally showed an expectant smile, with white teeth and shining eyes.
She watched the box open expectantly, ready to look inside.
Let’s see what kind of big treasure God Insai released.
But before she could poke her head in, the big baby inside popped out.
A surprisingly large gavel.
Sally, like the former Saint Rafael, looked at the gavel with a puzzled expression: "?"
Then, the gavel hit her on the head.
"Boom!"
Then, a hammer throw.
"boom!"
A shadow ejected from the white storage tower and flew far and wide.
Running towards the direction of the sun in the sky.
The anxious Saint Raphael and the fairies on the beach looked at the meteor streaking across the sky, and they all looked at each other.
"?"
"oh!"
"What flew by?"
Only Saint Raphael felt that this scene was so familiar——
The fifth year since the founding of the White Tower Alchemy Alliance was also the second year that war broke out between the two sides again.
Only then did the remaining flames of the war end.
The White Tower Alchemy Alliance completely defeated the Council of Elders and ended the Alchemy Council system of the Council of Elders headed by the Golden Family.
A large number of alchemy families fled from the Land of the Rising Sun, and some fled to the Court of the Ten Thousand Snakes.
Some fled to Thunder Swamp.
What's more.
He even fled further north towards the endless sea of sand.
After unifying the entire Land of the Rising Sun, the White Tower Alchemy Alliance announced that it would directly abandon the original council system of the Council of Elders, which was like a fictitious one.
Under this Alchemy Council system, it seems that all alchemists can run for election, but the ones who have been passed down from generation to generation are still the elders of each family, and they have not changed for hundreds of years.
And the seat of the Great Elder belongs to the Golden Family.
More importantly, the Land of the Rising Sun under the elders system cannot be called a country at all.
It seems that this system is very advanced, but in fact it is still a continuation of the system of the alliance of elders of various tribes in ancient times.
The establishment of the White Tower Alchemy Alliance officially made the Land of the Rising Sun a complete country.
The new White Tower Alchemy Alliance uses the citizens' assembly system.
As long as the people of the Land of the Rising Sun pay enough taxes and fees to the White Tower Alchemy Alliance, they can become citizens of the White Tower Alchemy Alliance. Citizens in each city can participate in the competition for the local consul.
Finally, the governor of the town is elected.
Consul of a province.
as well as.
Archon of the Alliance.
The major alchemy schools have also established their own alchemy colleges in major provinces and cities. Each college is deeply rooted in the local area and is closely related to the local economy, politics, and prosperity.
The more powerful the alchemy academy is, the more outstanding alchemists and students it can produce, and the more powerful and prosperous the local area will be.
Among them, the most influential one is naturally the White Tower Alchemy Academy.
The golden province.
White Tower City.
The former Golden City actually managed many cities and towns, large and small. Because of the Council of Elders system, the elders of the Golden City would definitely not be willing to divide their territory to allow the Alchemy Council to have a few more elders.
This also indirectly led to the extremely chaotic regional division of the entire Land of the Rising Sun.
They all look like cities.
But the distance between cities is huge.
After the establishment of the White Tower Alchemy Alliance, all the areas once ruled by the Golden City were directly divided into a province.
The White Tower City was also the former Golden City and the capital of the White Tower Alchemy Alliance.
In the White Tower Alchemy Academy, everyone is surrounding the No. 1 Test Tower at this moment, looking at the top of the tower expectantly.
"Will Dean Oran succeed?"
"Of course Mr. Dean will succeed."
“Could the apostles really live a thousand years?”
"That's the apostle of God."
The entire test tower has been emptied, and all personnel are waiting outside the tower.
Because today.
The first apostle of the God of Alchemy may be about to be born.
Oran stood in the center of the ritual magic circle, watching the ritual magic circle communicate with the dream world, forming a powerful spiritual pressure.
In ancient times, this step required a large number of powerful people to work together to form strong spiritual pressure; now as the dream world becomes more and more powerful, the laws of the dream world become more and more perfect, and this can be easily achieved just by using the power of the dream world.
step.
"here we go!"
The lamp of divine contract emerged from Olan's body, and then the lamp spirit appeared behind him.
The transparent body is composed of activated spiritual power, and the core inside is the curse seal.
The mythical blood in his body turned into fluorescence and continuously flowed out, and finally gathered in the lamp of the divine contract.
Divine blood, spirit, curse seal.
The three elements of wisdom and power were forcibly integrated into one body under the strong pressure of the ritual formation.
The Divine Grace Stone appeared.
Olan's consciousness also directly left the body and appeared inside the lamp of the divine contract.
He could feel the changes in the Lamp of Divine Contract, and the Divine Favor Stone melted, turning the Lamp of Divine Contract into a mythical organ belonging to him.
Olan's consciousness is inside the lamp.
This lantern seems to have become his own head, and he can think without the need for his body, relying on this lantern.
His desires and emotions turned into flames, dancing in the lamp.
He felt as if his desire personality had turned into an existence that could be manipulated, a special seed containing something.
"What's this?"
"Is this a higher road?"
What is above the apostles of God, what is the higher being.
Oran suddenly remembered the rumors about the Age of Gods and the oracle about the gods establishing a human divine system.
He observed the outside situation from a strange perspective separated from his body.
His eyes penetrated the test tower and saw everything outside.
He looked down at his body.
Under the control of Olan, the magic lamp rushed towards high places and arrived at the high tower.
The light burned from the silver lantern.
Then there was a roar and the flames exploded.
Scattered fireworks filled the sky.
Densely packed lanterns spun out, hovering above the White Tower Alchemy Academy and hovering over the White Tower City.
Cheers suddenly came from below, and everyone looked at the large number of lanterns hovering in the sky and exclaimed.
"Apostle of the God of Alchemy!"
"The Apostle of the Magic Lamp."
"Long live the Dean."
Olan succeeded and successfully became the fourth level.
Everyone was celebrating, even the people in the White Tower City cheered, and a large number of children ran on the streets, chasing the lanterns in the sky.
After Olan declared that he had become a fourth-level apostle through this move, he integrated the lamp of the divine contract into his body.
He was alone on the top of the tower, looking at the coast where the storage wonderland once stood.
He took out a storage bracelet.
The ritual array on the bracelet lights up, communicating with the storage fairy's wonderland through the dream world, connecting the storage grids corresponding to the numbers on it.
He put a letter into the bracelet, along with a box containing a gift.
"Give it to you."
“Saint Raphael, the Storage Fairy!”
"I have some belated gifts."
Inside the box are two books.
One is an ancient fairy tale, "The Fairy Tale of the Fairies" written by the legendary god Iva, which is the beginning of this era's prayer festival.
One is a book that has recently become popular in the Land of the Rising Sun.
The story about the storage fairy Saint Raphael who came from the kingdom of the gods to bring good news to the world.
"The Gospel of the Forest Fairy"
The story of Saint Raphael, the storage fairy, has become popular in the world. As a creature of dreams and prayers, when more people remember and know about them, more prayers will gather towards them——
A few years later.
Northeast of Ruhe Island.
In the endless desert.
A cloaked figure walked forward in the wind and sand.
It was clearly bright, but he was holding a lamp in his hand.
A silver lamp.
He pulled up the cloth on his face to cover the sand.
"The endless sand sea is indeed not a good place!"
"For mortals, this may be the most terrifying place of death."
Endless Sand Sea is the name of this desert.
As for the reason why this place is called the Endless Sand Sea, it is because this desert is not an ordinary desert, it carries all kinds of magical powers.
This is one of the forbidden death places on the giant island of Ruhe.
The most intuitive and obvious.
It is the position inside this desert that is constantly moving and changing.
You may be at the edge of the sand sea in the morning, and be moved to the center of the sand sea at night, or be swallowed directly to the bottom.
Ordinary people enter it and can never come out.
Even if you keep moving in one direction, you will never reach the end.
This.
It's just a danger on the surface, a danger that mortals can see.
Oran, the apostle of the God of Alchemy, traveled thousands of miles to come here because he wanted to find a city that only existed in legends.
According to legend, in the depths of the endless sand sea, someone saw an old city that was lost in time.
Oran had heard some people tell stories about this city, and he felt that it was very close to the place he was looking for.
Oran has been looking for this city for a long time, wandering in this forbidden place again and again.
Oran held the lantern.
One after another, the lanterns flew out to explore the surroundings, and then flew back again.
I have been looking for him for who knows how long, but I always come back disappointed.
And when the last lantern flew back, his expression suddenly changed.
"over there."
Oran turned into a gust of wind, and the lantern swept him away towards the distance.
The tornado was floating in the air, and Olan was sitting in the tornado.
Looking down from a height.
A huge whirlpool was spinning in the desert, and he gradually saw a huge city slowly rising from the whirlpool under the sand sea in the distance.
The sun's rays fall from the clouds.
Bake the sand until it's boiling hot.
The wind and sand roared in the distance, sweeping across the desert.
The sand and dust seemed to cover the city with a veil, making it look so mysterious.
But at this moment, Olan's eyes were completely attracted by that city, and he even held his breath.
As if he was afraid that he would be out of breath.
The city he had been looking for for a long time had disappeared without a trace.
The city is ancient, wild and heavy.
It is built entirely of huge rocks, which is very different from the style of the Lost Kingdom, but the feeling of being carved by a giant god is the same.
Oran looked at the city floating under the sea of sand and was very excited.
"That's right."
"that's it!"
"This is the hometown in Elena's heart, the ancient city in her dreams."
Oran has seen this city many times from the projection of Elena's Heart.
only.
It should have been under the sea.
Oran breathed a long sigh of relief: "I finally found it."
"Lady Elena, I finally repaid the kindness you gave me."
Oran only knew that this city was very old, unimaginably old.
He didn't know what the city was called, let alone its history.
That is.
The oldest city besides the God-given City is Jessel City.
It is also the royal city of the people of the Demon Abyss.
