So when He Xiaoxi talked about the Western Continent, most people's minds went blank.
Even those time travelers who pride themselves on being well-informed and having good memory feel like they are completely in the dark.
Xiao Chen and Luo Ling had only seen some vague records in ancient books, but in their daily lives, they had no access to any affairs or information from there.
He Xiaoxi said: "That continent is a place abandoned by the gods, so it is understandable that the mages of the Tower of Origin would choose to escape there. At least the Temple of Nature is unwilling to pay such a high price to track them down in that wild land."
"The gods have also given up? In other words, you haven't paid attention to that place either?" Xiao Chen asked.
“The gods already have enough believers on this continent to build temples for them and provide services. Why would they want to go to a barbaric world and start all over again
In my limited memory, the civilization over there has always been far inferior to this side. Since there are clean believers who can serve you, why do you have to educate those smelly barbarians? "He Xiaoxi said, "Besides, even if some organization is developed in that place, it is difficult to exchange what we have with this side. The violent sea is not just storms and waves. There are also disturbances of magic in the middle, and this disturbance goes all the way to the sky, so even for a saint, it is very difficult to cross that sea area. Not to mention ordinary people. Moreover, this disturbance will block teleportation, greatly increasing the failure rate of teleportation. Even if someone builds a teleportation array on the other side, it will not be worth the loss. "
"What about the Tower of Origin? Why did they choose that continent as their refuge?" Xiao Chen asked.
An old booklet appeared in He Xiaoxi's hand. She opened the booklet and said, "As you know, the True Source of Magic Power in the Tower of Origin is a holy book that came out very late. It records the methods to deal with the effects of the deprivation of magic words by the gods. In fact, it is just an ordinary book. It does not have the power of any other holy book, but its content is more important than any other holy book.
However, during the Seven Towers era, the value of this holy book was not discovered in time, and it caused controversy within the Origin Tower. I recently spent a lot of effort and finally discovered a diary manuscript left inside the Origin Tower. It should have been written by a saint or great magician of the Origin Tower. It says:
… Today, the Lord of the Tower and the Deputy Lord of Asilos had a serious dispute. Lord Asilos thought that the time was not right and that a general attack should not be launched yet. We should wait until everyone has mastered the spellcasting method mentioned in "The True Source of Magic Power" before we can fight the God of Nature. However, Lord Hakemino thought that Asilos's idea was purely overthinking. The Seven Towers fought well in the battle with the Temple of Nature and the City of Gods. There was no need to delay time. The Temple of Nature and the City of Gods had no way to break through our defenses. We should take this opportunity to deal with the God of Nature, and the forces that the other party attached to the gods would collapse.
… The Sword Tower sent an envoy, and we planned to set out and attack the Kingdom of the God of Nature directly. But Asilos refused to participate in the general offensive, and the other three saints of the Source Tower made the same choice as him. Lord Hakemino was very angry, but Lord Asilos also had a deep foundation in the Source Tower. In the past two days, they had quarreled several times in public, but nothing came of it.
… The general attack was about to begin. Before the battle, Lord Hakemino seemed to be a little shaken. They discussed twice and finally the Lord of the Tower decided to hand over the Tower of Origin to Asilos. No matter what the result of this battle was, the Tower of Origin and the inheritance of the True Source of Magic would be protected. However, the change in the Lord of the Tower's mentality seemed to indicate something, which was really worrying.
… We will set off tomorrow. After Asilos and his men put away the Tower of Origin, they will board a ship and head towards the Pearl Islands. It is said that they are going to head west…”
He Xiaoxi said: "The location of the Tower of Origin was on the Crescent Peninsula, which is the Southern City-State you know. To the west from here is the Pearl Islands, and to the west of the Pearl Islands is the Violent Sea. Therefore, I infer that they went to the Western Continent. Besides, they have four saints, so if they want to protect a ship, they should be able to do it."
"I don't quite understand one thing." Mao Kai manipulated the seat to fly a little over here and asked, "I thought the Seven Sacred Towers were also hidden in a small world like the Spirit Eye Tower. And what we are looking for is an entrance. But from this person's written records, it seems that the Seven Sacred Towers can be turned into something that can be carried with you?"
He Xiaoxi said, "That's right. Before they were ready to fight the God of Nature, these seven magic towers were jointly transformed by the saints of the Forging Tower and the Star Tower. They used a lot of priceless space materials to turn the seven towers into seven holy artifacts, no, it should be said that they are super holy artifacts. So that they can be turned into a portable object and taken away by people.
Moreover, when these seven towers themselves became objects, they all carried extremely powerful powers. I don’t know what their specific abilities are, but according to records, they are related to the power of the gods. This is why I say that the most valuable thing in the legacy of the seven towers is themselves.”
"The Seven Holy Towers can be used to deal with gods, so why didn't they use them at that time?" Xiao Chen asked puzzledly.
"Perhaps the magicians of the Seventh Tower felt that they were better prepared. Perhaps they had not yet reached the final moment and were not resolute enough. But by the time they were really needed, it was too late." He Xiaoxi sighed, "But I was not on the battlefield at that time, so I don't know what happened in the end of the battle."
"Okay, let's get back to the question of the Tower of Origin. If we can't get four saints to escort the ship, how should we cross the raging sea?" Xiao Chen asked.
He Xiaoxi smiled confidently: "My artifact, the 'Time Shuttle', can be used to travel through time and space, and it can naturally resist various energy fluctuations. I plan to modify it, and then you put it on the ship, and it should be safer to cross the violent sea."
Liu Yisheng was stunned when he heard this. He took two steps forward, grabbed He Xiaoxi's arm, and said softly, "The Time Shuttle is the greatest guarantee for you and me."
He Xiaoxi patted his hands and said, "I know what you want to say, but this time I feel there is nothing to escape. Recovering my past memories reminded me of an idiom: burn the boats and burn the boats. Maybe in the past, we couldn't succeed because we always had a way out." (To be continued)
