The card Kelly gave Qin Lun had a blue background with a silver border, and the pattern on the front was a forest under the moonlight. Looking at the environment, it looked a bit like the moonlight forest of the elves. On the back, the crossed swords set off an erect eye pattern. There are swirling pupils in the eyes, and after a long look, it makes people a little dizzy, as if even the mind is sucked in.
This card is much larger than the Tarot cards, and if some congratulations are written on it, it would look like a greeting card. The card does not belong to the apostle item, and there is no introduction about it in the death list. Just as an apostle, Qin Lun can fully feel that it has a shattering law, like an ordinary item fused with a broken crystal.
Qin Lun checked it and confirmed that he didn't understand it, so he sent a message to Mafa as Chen Xing said, inviting the elders of the elves to come and have dinner together.
After receiving Qin Lun's message, Mafa took time to visit at night.
"Qin Lun, my brother, it's great to see you safe and sound!" Time seems to have left no trace on the elf's handsome face, and Mafa is still the elf that makes the girls crazy pretty boy.
He was promoted from the captain of the guard to the elder of the elves, and the moon night elves have recovered from the turmoil in the management seats of the council. Mafa has been very comfortable during this time, his face is rosy, and he is even more handsome. .
"Mafa, we haven't seen each other for a long time!" Qin Lun smiled and hugged the elf.
"Oh? Hehe, Qin Lun, we haven't seen each other for only a month! You apostles are like this. To you, a short month is like a century!" Mafa was slightly taken aback and sighed with emotion. tone.
Mafa suddenly frowned, looked Qin Lun carefully, and showed a look of shock on his face, "Qin Lun, are you already a high-ranking apostle?"
Qin Lun smiled lightly, shook his head and remained silent. In the eyes of the intelligent race in Broken Starry Sky, as long as they are professional apostles, they are all classified as high-level. Back then, when Beluces saw him, he had the same reaction.
"You entered the Broken Starry Sky from another world... It's been less than three months! You are the apostle whose strength has improved the fastest among the apostles I have seen!" Mafa's expression was extremely complicated, with mixed feelings in his heart.
As the captain of the elf guard, Mafa's combat power is equivalent to that of a second-order apostle. However, the apostle has the law body and recovery items, if the battle is protracted, he will only lose. Mafa knew that Qin Lun would catch up to him sooner or later, but he didn't expect this day to come so soon. You must know that it has been more than two hundred years since he practiced.
"Three months... Ha ha! You apostles are really blessed!" Mafa smiled wryly and shook his head, "Sometimes, I really want to go to your mission world to see what you have gone through before you can Every time there is an earth-shaking change!"
"Believe me, you don't want to know. In the eyes of the apostles, you are the only ones who are happy!" Qin Lun's eyes flickered slightly, and he said softly, "Mafa, never... never try to step into that world!"
"Hehe, no matter what, you have to have a drink with me today, to comfort the wounded heart of this elder!" Mafa smiled and nodded, and took Qin Lun's arm and walked inside.
"What would you like to drink?" Qin Lun asked the elf on the sofa.
"Scorching Flame Wine!"
"Oh? Are you sure?" Qin Lun couldn't help chuckling.
Scorching Flame Wine is a strong wine brewed by the gnomes. Elves generally like to drink low-concentration fruit wine with a little sweetness.
"I'm sure!" Mafa waved his hand vigorously, it seemed that he was really irritated by Qin Lun.
Taking a sip from the wine glass, Mafa's mood slowly calmed down, and she asked again with a smile: "You probably don't have the kindness to invite me over for a drink. Tell me, what can I do for you this time?"
"Can't I just invite you to drink?" Qin Lun touched his nose in embarrassment.
"Will you?" Mafa looked at the young man with a half-smile.
Qin Lun suddenly smiled wryly, he really wouldn't just ask Mafa to drink and chat if he had nothing to do, he has no habit of socializing!
"Ahem, it's really not a very important thing this time, I just want you to help me identify a card!" Qin Lun took out the card Kelly gave him and put it on the coffee table, "Someone sent a card like this Give me something, he said that the elders of the elves will know how to use it!"
"This is..." Mafa glanced at the card, then slowly opened her mouth wide, as if she saw something incredible.
"Mafa... Mafa?" Qin Lun saw that Mafa was in a daze, and immediately shook his arm.
"Ah? Oh!" Mafa was startled, recovering from thousands of thoughts.
"Looking at you, you should recognize this card? What is it?" Qin Lun asked curiously.
"Of course I know this thing!" Mafa looked at Qin Lun with a strange expression, "I originally sent this thing, and I sent no less than a hundred copies. I was just wondering why it was in your hands!"
"Ah? Is this thing important?" Qin Lun's curiosity arose and he asked hastily.
Mafa's lips moved, but no sound came out. After a long while, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I really can't explain this thing in a few words, so you should see it yourself. There is this record in my ID card. Originally I can't show it to you. However, since you have this thing, you can read it!"
Marfa stood up, took the projector in the living room, and inserted the ID card into one of the grooves. The projector screen shook, and soon a three-dimensional image appeared.
"This is...another suspended continent?" Qin Lun raised his eyebrows slightly as he looked at the stereoscopic projection.
The area of the suspended continent in the projection is much smaller than the scorching plain below the Devil's Horn, and it is about the size of Shuzhou Prefecture in Huaxia District.
What surprised Qin Lun was that the architectural style on this suspended continent was very similar to the modern world before the Earth Federation was unified, which was probably from the end of the 20th century to the beginning of the 21st century in the Gregorian calendar.
The road network on the suspended continent is vertical and horizontal, dividing the continent into regions and towns like a checkerboard grid. There are many high-rise buildings in the towns and cities, ranging from honeycomb-like residential quarters that are more than ten stories high, to skyscrapers that are hundreds of stories high.
Scenic parks, flat and spacious airport avenues, farmland with waves of wheat, railways extending far away like arteries, bridges on broad rivers... This is a beautiful and rich small continent!
In the center of this suspended continent, there is a giant floating city staying here. Qin Lun's first impression of this floating city was that it was big, very big! Although it is only the size of a fist in the stereoscopic projection, its huge volume can be measured by comparing it with the surrounding scenery.
The airport, which covers an area of over a thousand hectares, is only the size of a fingernail. Compared with the Devil's Horn, where tens of thousands of people live, its area is almost equivalent to fifty devil's horns. If Devil's Horn is considered a small town in the Earth Federation, then it is an international metropolis.
The buildings in the giant city are similar to the architectural style on this suspended continent, and it seems that it is a floating city belonging to this suspended continent. As for whether it is an apostle city, even Qin Lun dare not make random guesses.
There are nearly 20,000 apostles in Devil's Horn. If this floating city were an apostle city, it might have more than one million apostles. This is simply unimaginable!
However, this giant city obviously couldn't give him the answer. Most of the buildings in the city are dilapidated, covered with green moss and vines. As the projection plays, some wild creatures can often be seen scurrying on the roads of the city, like an urban forest made of reinforced concrete.
It's gone!
Of the eight huge pillars supporting the floating city, three of them were completely broken. The whole city is like a lame three-legged tripod, crookedly leaning against the ground, silently telling its past glory!
"This suspended continent is called Atlantis, and tens of millions of humans once lived on it. However, its history is very short. From the formation of the continent to its destruction, it only has a history of three hundred years!"
"What? Are you sure it's three hundred years, not three thousand years?" Qin Lun looked at Mafa in surprise and couldn't help asking.
Judging from the level of civilization on Atlantis, it has almost reached the era of the fourth scientific and technological revolution in the old century of the earth. It took thousands of years for humans on Earth to reach that level of civilization!
"I understand what you mean!" Mafa said with a bitter smile, "I just said that the history of Atlantis in the Broken Starry Sky is only three hundred years!"
"In the history of the Broken Starry Sky?" Qin Lun's eyes flashed, and he asked uncertainly, "Mafa, what do you mean... Atlantis didn't belong to the Broken Starry Sky? But... didn't the Hanging Continent change with the passage of time? , will the core of the continent be condensed in the Broken Starry Sky?"
"Most continents are indeed like this! However, there are still some continents... are special cases!" Mafa's expression became serious.
"Qin Lun, have you ever wondered...if all the suspended continents were only slowly condensed in the broken starry sky, then why are there so many civilizations with completely different laws? After all, the suspended continents can also communicate with space-time star gates , not completely isolated."
"You mean, the many intelligent races in the Broken Starry Sky... In ancient times, they were originally civilizations from other worlds, but for some reason, the entire continent and the intelligent races on it were sent into the Broken Starry Sky?" Qin Lun narrowed his eyes slightly, he realized what Mafa meant.
"Well, much of the ancient history of the Broken Starry Sky is unverifiable. However, the elders of our clan believe that the Broken Starry Sky itself cannot give birth to intelligent life, and the existing intelligent races originally all came from the lawful civilization of different time and space!" Mafa said in his eyes. With a hint of longing, he said quietly.
"In other words, like the apostles, we are all time travellers. One of your mission worlds is the hometown of our elves!"
