Gron once also tried the feeling of soaring in the sky.
Taking the imperial balloon airship, he enjoyed the beautiful scenery of snowfields and forests at high altitudes, and also crossed continents and oceans in the sea of clouds. At that time, Goron thought that he had touched the top of the sky. Even if he had not "broken through the sky", he was still at the edge of the sky.
However, at this moment, Gron realized how wrong he was and how ridiculous he was. The sky... Goron no longer even knows what the sky is, and where is the sky.
Gronn once heard the beautiful snake tell a fable about a frog. A frog who was born and grew up in a deep well didn't know how big the sky was, and thought that the wellhead as big as the moon was the entire world.
When he heard this story, Goron was still laughing at that kind of narrow-minded creature, and he was glad that he was a high-level species with real wisdom and knowledge. However, at this time, Goron suddenly had a feeling that when he was laughing at the frog, Sometimes, I wonder if I am also the object of ridicule by other superior beings. After having this realization, Goron suddenly recalled that when he laughed heartily because of the fable of the beautiful snake and mocked the frog in the well, the beautiful snake looked at him very strangely. Now I think about it. In his eyes, he was not much different from that frog.
Looking out from the porthole of the small ark, the vast sea of clouds is so far away from me, and the land and mountains are like a distant oil painting, just some faint colors.
The beautiful witch was surprisingly quiet. Like Goron, she was also looking at the scenery outside the window foolishly. Although she was born in Crystal Lake, she has knowledge and insight far beyond that of ordinary indigenous residents of the Blade Tower plane, but that is also limited to this plane and cannot transcend the limitations of the "world". But when they boarded the Ark of Life through the Tower of Babel and saw the vast universe, the two people didn't understand anything, just like people on the ground looking up at the stars but not knowing how vast the stars were. All the things are attributed to the greatness of magic, but they are not as shocking as at this moment.
After all, as a ground dweller, even if the perspective changes, I can still barely understand the scenery on the ground.
"Where are we going now?" the witch asked as if talking to herself. She did not expect to get the answer. In fact, Goron did not know the answer to this question. As the distance grew, the connection between him and the controlling soul of the Ark of Life became intermittent, even vague. As for the control of the Ark of Life, Goron only knew that it was in control of the Ark of Life. Just find a suitable place to land. After all, according to the master soul, this is just an escape capsule.
In the silence between the two of them, the small ark finally passed through the sea of clouds and approached the ground. They both tried their best to open their eyes wide, trying to distinguish the familiar scenery, and could still vaguely hear the two people talking to themselves. …
"Imperial Capital... Imperial Capital..."
"Crystal Lake... Crystal Lake..."
However, the two people's wishes seemed to be in vain. Although it was not very clear when looking down from a high place, at least they were both sure that neither the Crystal Lake nor the imperial capital, Black Mountain, could be a vast yellow desert.
The little Ark finally fell into the sand and was buried deeply under the sea of sand. After a long time, Gronn, who transformed into a man-eating King Kong, and the witch who transformed into a five-tailed sand scorpion emerged from the ground. .
The two gray-faced people looked at each other, their expressions a little confused. In front of them was an endless sea of sand. Goron was born and grew up in Haishi Harbor, and the Witch was born in Crystal "Lake". It can be said that no natural environment is more strange to them than the desert.
After a long time, the beautiful witch swallowed her saliva and said in a bitter tone: "As far as I know, there is absolutely no desert of this size within the empire."
The implication is that there is no doubt that the two of them are no longer within the empire. As for where this place is, it is not difficult to guess. In the entire Blade Tower Continent, there is only one place with such a wonderful view of the sand sea. One place…
Golden Sun Dynasty.
This is a desert country located in the southwest of the continent. In terms of land area, even the vast empire is inferior. However, due to the unique and harsh geographical environment of the desert, the several turbulent wars in the mainland over the past thousands of years have not affected the Sun Dynasty, making this place a paradise on earth instead.
And just like the Earthsea Labyrinth located underground in the Dota Continent, the environment in both places is also harsh, and the true situation is unknown to outsiders, but it does not mean that the desert or the underground world is really a dead and desolate place.
In fact, on the contrary, for the ethnic groups who have lived in the desert and underground for thousands of years and have completely adapted to the environment here, not only is this place not desolate at all, but it is a golden treasure land that is extremely rich.
The evidence is that nearly half of the jewelry and gold currently circulating on the Dota Continent comes from the desert, especially several extremely precious fire-attribute and earth-attribute magic crystals, which are completely monopolized by the Golden Sun Dynasty. In addition, slave trade and monarch fire trade are also pillar industries of the Sun Dynasty. Known as the sharpest weapon that can be mass-produced in the world, it is the Sun Dynasty's world-famous Damascus Saber. But the most incomprehensible thing is that the desert is completely desolate. Outsiders entering here, let alone getting rich, will never see a living person before they die of thirst and starvation if there is no one to guide them. However, the number of slaves "produced" by the desert to the outside world every year is unimaginable.
There are not only the charming and passionate brown-skinned dancers with superb dancing skills, but also a large number of "perfect" coolies who will not complain even if they are exhausted to death. Before the rise of Goron's "Black City Chamber of Commerce", slaves with the "Golden Sun" brand were an absolute guarantee of quality.
The above is all that Goron knows about this desert and the ruler of this desert, but the problem is that at this time, he only sees sand in his eyes.
The witch beside her suddenly transformed into a rotten monster with a body covered in ulcers, an anteater-like shape, and huge claws. She dug frantically on the sand, scattering the sand in all directions. Goron knew what she was digging for and what she was looking for without having to guess.
After thinking quietly for a moment, a sneer flashed across the corner of the little ogre's mouth, and the next moment he actually moved his hands to help dig up the sand. Although the sand dune was huge, it didn't take long for a huge hole to be dug out in front of the little ogre with the power of the ancient giant and the witch who transformed into an ant-eater and rotten beast. At the bottom of the pit, the super-small escape ark stood there quietly.
Seeing the ark, the witch was as if she were seeing a rare treasure that had been lost and found, and her eyes were extremely obsessed. However, before she could fully appreciate it and return to normal thinking, the ark began to shrink rapidly under her nose. At first, the witch thought this was some function of the small ark, but when Goron took the palm-sized ark in his hand, then pressed it on her body and disappeared, the witch realized that everything turned out to be The little ogre is causing mischief.
"What do you want to do?" Goron pushed away the witch who rushed towards him like a madman, and said coldly: "This desert is so big, you don't want to leave here carrying such a big thing. It just happens. I have the ability to save it, so keep it here for now and I will give it to you when the time comes.”
The witch was a witch after all, and she quickly calmed down. Of course she knew what Goron meant, and she knew even more clearly that the little bastard had her life firmly in her hands.
She was not the kind of stupid woman who could only use rage to cover up her confusion. Although she wanted to tear the beautiful little man in front of her alive with both hands, she still chose to ease the tense and cold atmosphere with a charming smile.
"Then sister, I have to thank you very much. I can't tell that you are still very manly despite your age. You already know that you have to take the initiative to help ladies take on the 'heavy work'. But your ability is really interesting. Such big things become smaller when they become smaller. Is it earth magic or space magic? You are a shaman, so it should be the function of some magic equipment! Can you let me see it?"
It was as if Goron couldn't hear the sarcasm in her words, and he was not interested in answering the beautiful witch's questions. He smiled slightly and pointed forward and said: "There are some strange sounds coming from that direction. Let's go there." Well, if you are lucky, you may be able to find food and water. I think we will not be thirsty or hungry here like in the Ark of Life. If we are forced, we may have to eat each other to survive. Go down."
The beautiful witch suddenly shivered, and her intuition told her that what Goron said just now was not a joke. Although this damn child looked as beautiful as a goblin, even more beautiful than herself, the beautiful witch knew He knows some details, this kid is a ferocious and cruel ogre at heart.
Especially the glance that Goron glanced at her just now, his eyes were focused on the plump thighs exposed after his robe was damaged, but the witch dared to swear to the Magic Emperor that it was definitely not a lustful look to appreciate a beautiful woman, but more like a gourmet. The feeling of looking at the ham sausages placed in the cupboard.
It has to be said that a woman's intuition is indeed terrifyingly accurate. Goron's mind at that time was really trying to attract the attention of the beautiful witch. Due to his plan, this woman must not die at the moment, but if push comes to shove, there is still no problem in eating one or two of her arms and legs.
The atmosphere suddenly became strange again. Gronn led the way, and the witch followed behind, deliberately keeping a distance that was neither too far nor too close. However, the two of them walked for several hours, and the witch did not hear or see the strange movement in Goron's mouth. Just when the witch began to doubt whether Goron was having any bad ideas, a loud noise that resounded through the sky suddenly came. Come here... (~^~)
