Ling didn't feel any discomfort after being hinted. If the concept of coercion is only used to reinforce someone's own intention, then people will not notice the disharmony. But if you insist on saying it,
, it is indeed a little different, just like a thin veil of mist has been lifted from the eyes.
Just like the last time at the Cyanbi Tower, Ling used Patil Matil as her substitute and took Professor Wiseman to the top of the Red Lotus Tower, the last of the four-wheeled towers in the Liber Kingdom.
"It's obviously a red tower, but it doesn't feel like it has the power of fire. Professor, do you know why?" After sensing the surroundings, Ling asked the scholar with some doubts.
"Ling, I have considered the same problem as you before. Now it seems that the ancient people of the sealing agency deliberately left misleading information to future generations. Because the color of the tower is red, it is easy to associate it with the red glowing stone.
Together. But unlike the four-flare stone barrier around the royal capital Grancel, the Tower of Four Wheels is not really built with seven-flare stone."
Emerald Tower(), the literal meaning of the tower name is reminiscent of a tower made of Emerald Stone(s).
Amber Tower (), the literal meaning of the tower name is reminiscent of a tower made of amber stone (s).
The literal meaning of the name of the Cyanbi Tower is reminiscent of a tower made of saphirl.
The literal meaning of the tower's name is reminiscent of a tower made of carnelia.
"Misleading?"
Ling walked to the broken stone pillar, broke off a stone and held it in her hand. The color of the stone was bright, red like flesh and blood. Ling asked Patil Matil to scan the molecular formula of the stone, and the red color was
It is caused by iron oxide impurities. It is not a ruby containing dazzling power, or even a highly pure ruby, but an ordinary ore. The variety called light chalcedony or carnelian, even in Qiyao
Mine-barren empires also fall into the category that can be seen everywhere on the roadside.
"This involves some knowledge about sealing and unsealing. I just mentioned Grancel's four-flare stone enchantment. How much do you know about that?"
Ling has not personally been to Grantel, the capital of Liberl. She only knows the parts recorded in the books and materials at King Janice Academy.
"What I know is only formal. There are four stone monuments on the Albert Tour outside Grancel City. They seem to have nothing to do with the seals of the Ring of Glory. They are facilities that protect the royal capital with four attributes. Located in
The one in the north is the cangite stele representing the water attribute, the one in the south is the red gleaming stone stele representing the fire attribute, the one in the east is the amber stone stele representing the earth attribute, and the one in the west is the obsidian stele representing the time attribute.
The stone tablet... Hey, wait a minute, so it’s not a barrier with the four lower attributes of earth, fire, water, and wind?”
"That's right. Similarly, the sixteen ancient people of the sealing agency have secretly changed the concept from the beginning. The four-wheeled towers are all used to complete the gravity barrier. No matter which tower is in it, the
The most important thing is the power of the land. Well, let’s stop talking about literacy.”
Wiseman was already prepared. He temporarily opened the different space of the Red Lotus Tower, and the two of them entered it with familiarity.
This time, unlike last time, Wiseman did not let Ling take the lead. Wiseman recruited helpers.
Because giving hints to the other party increased his trust in Ling, some trump cards that he had not planned to use in front of Ling could now be used without any scruples. As he raised his wand high, two waves of terrifying spiritual pressure came out.
The body monster descended beside him. It was ugly and twisted that I don’t know how to describe. From a human aesthetic point of view, just looking at these lumps of flesh and blood would make you feel dizzy.
"Big devil?" In addition to feeling the power of these two monsters, Ling also felt a faint sense of familiarity from them.
"That gate has twists as its solid foundation, and is the gateway that separates the living from the dead. It is the so-called Purgatory Gate. They are two of the seventy-seven pillars of demons recorded in the Holy Scriptures of Qiyao Church. They stand on the left side of the Purgatory Gate.
The demon Lostorm, the demon Astarte who sticks to the right side of the Purgatory Gate. If you want to summon them in a lower spiritual phase of reality, you must have a living sacrifice as a host. But in this alien world
In space, they can be easily controlled by me."
Hearing Wiseman's proud tone, Ling felt like she was about to shed a cold sweat. Compared with the incomplete transformation into a demon, this kind of genuine demon would simply die in the light of day on the continent of Samlia. Qiyao Church
All over the continent, if it is known that a real demon has appeared, it will not be the Star Cup Knights as a spy agency, but the Monk Soldiers Hall as the regular army of the Codex Country.
"Uncle Wiseman, you have never really done a living sacrifice in reality..."
"Of course, this is a tradition since ancient times. Otherwise, why would the Holy Scriptures record demons in such detail? Otherwise, how do you think I mastered this kind of magic? That was when I was still serving as the bishop of the Canonized Province. The so-called
The 'heresy' is the devil's favorite host body."
"..." Ling was silent for a moment, while Wiseman looked at her with a malicious smile.
"I seem to have heard something terrible. So, there are many people over there who know it?"
"No, as far as I know, before I was expelled from the church, I was the only one who could summon the Great Demon of Purgatory. The others at most just summoned some inferior people. I am still somewhat confident in my magic abilities.
By the way, the magic eye, teleportation, and thunder of punishment are all spells that I reproduced after researching the power of demons. The unparalleled magic power possessed by Astartes is the prototype of these unique spells."
"Uncle Wiseman, you will definitely die badly."
"Hoo ho ho ho, I'll just take it as a compliment. Okay, now that the gossip is over, it's time for us to get down to business."
Lostrom wields two giant hammers, and Astartes uses a huge wand. But those are not real "weapons", but the embodiment of a concept, an inseparable part of their bodies.
This time, there were two big demons who were not much worse than Patil and Mathil. They were opening the way, so Ling didn't need to fight as hard as last time. She almost watched Wiseman leading the two demons to show off their strength.
Magic. Only in front of the last enemy, Ling took out the spirit sword and used the Underworld Sword to kill the monster at the bottom of the pass.
After destroying the opponent, the entire alien space shook. In Ling's perception, the proportions of the three superior attributes of time, space, and illusion have undergone subtle changes. The empty attribute, which was originally in a smaller proportion, suddenly increased by a large amount.
Cut. As the properties changed, the place where she and Wiseman were located also began to be reshaped in a way that was visible to the naked eye.
"Mutation?"
"No, after the interference has been eliminated, the Four Wheel Tower will finally return to its original shape. What we see is not the four real inner towers. It will take a few days to rebuild it. We can see it clearly next time we come.
Its original appearance. You are also interested in it, right?" Wiseman explained.
"Well, that's right." Ling nodded.
After clearing up all the shadows with Wiseman, Wiseman repatriated the two big demons and let them return to the purgatory phase, and then the two returned to the normal space. They did not stay at the Red Lotus Tower.
Went directly to the location of the next experiment.
Wolfe Fortress () is the border post between the Kingdom of Liber and Calvard. There is a long mountain road from Wolfe Fortress to the fortress on the opposite side of Calvard, which is difficult for the army to pass.
The scale is also much smaller. It is also a border gate, and it has a completely different tension than the Haken Gate, which is located in the northernmost part of the kingdom and directly faces the vast street. After all, for the Liberians, the Erebonian Empire is
They were hostile countries that went to war ten years ago, while the Kalvard Republic was a friendly country that had concluded an alliance treaty.
When Agathe came here, there was a peaceful atmosphere. There were even domestic hens on the ground wandering around on the streets that were supposed to be used by humans, which made him feel very wrong. But compared to this
, inquiring about earthquake information is his current job.
Agathe planned to say hello to the guard captain first. When he just walked into the detention center, he saw a man with brown hair and a burly look like a bear walking over from the direction of the Republic.
After seeing Agathe, the other party immediately quickened his pace, and Agathe also stopped, waiting for him to come to her side.
"Agathe, the epee, indeed has fiery red hair as rumored."
"The A-level guerrillas of the Republic are immobile. They have been famous for a long time. What are you doing in Liber?"
"Haha, we are all guerrillas, so you don't need to be so formal. Just call me Jin. I plan to attend the martial arts competition held in Grancel next week before coming to the Kingdom of Liber. But it seems that you
I seem to have something to do. If you don’t mind, can you let me go with you?"
"no problem."
Agathe thought for a moment and readily agreed. When he was in Luan before, he once dismissed Estelle and Joshua on the grounds that he was a full-scale guerrilla and they were only quasi-guerrillas. That was mainly because
Because the other party is inexperienced, they don't want them to be involved in tracking the man in black. This is out of care for the younger generation. But the person on the other side is an A-level guerrilla Fujin, and his experience level is far behind
On top of himself, the strength of Taito-ryu Ogi Kydenden is also trustworthy and he is a very reliable helper.
The two of them walked together and came to Captain Pace at the prison.
"Oh, you are guerrillas, right? The association has contacted me. Are you here to investigate the earthquake?"
"That's it. Has Wuxiang informed you?" Agathe replied.
Hearing Agathe mention Wuxiang's name, Jin also became a little concerned.
"Haha, we always take great care of her. As for your investigation, I will also provide assistance as much as possible." Captain Pace of the Royal Army said.
"Thank you very much, please tell us the details of the earthquake first."
"Well, the earthquake occurred at about 7:40 yesterday morning. The shaking was not severe at that time, it only lasted for ten seconds. However, because earthquakes do not happen often, my subordinates seemed panicked. Last night we and
During regular contact, Reston Fortress discovered a strange thing. There were no earthquakes elsewhere. Not only Reston Fortress, but even the closer Saint-Heim Gate did not feel any shaking. Asked Chase
It will be the same situation in the city and Yalmo Village in the future.”
Agathe and Kim both nodded.
"I understand what happened when the earthquake happened. Apart from that, is there anything else of concern that happened? For example, I saw some suspicious men in black or something like that."
Although it was just an unfounded guess, Agathe could not help but make associations. He always felt that there might be some connection with the man in black whom he had been tracking since Luan and finally lost him.
"I haven't received any special report here. If you don't mind, you can ask my subordinates."
After that, Agathe and Jin divided into two groups and interviewed all the soldiers at the customs station one by one, but did not get any useful clues. After summarizing, the two of them felt that the investigation was almost complete, and planned to go back to Chase.
Report of the Guerrilla Association.
When the two were walking on the Tolant Plain Road, Jin suddenly stopped and looked to the north.
"Brother Jin? That's the Red Lotus Tower. Did you discover something?"
"The wind is blowing from the northwest today, right?"
"Weather forecast, I don't pay much attention to that. What did you find?"
Jin pointed at the northern sky.
"Do you think this cloud is a bit strange? Not only is it in the wrong direction, but its speed is a bit too fast compared to other clouds?"
After listening to Jin's words, Agathe also focused his attention and soon found the cloud that Jin was pointing to.
"It's exactly what you said. Let's chase him, Brother Jin."
"Yeah, no problem."
The two people immediately increased their foot strength by stimulating fighting spirit and chased Yun Piaoli in the direction.
