Hao Ren walked into a real magic tower for the first time, but the environment inside was not as eerie and weird as he imagined. In fact, it was like a well-planned, neat and bright research facility. It is a reference room or a laboratory, and the place where the apprentices live is a neat and orderly dormitory - there is even a dormitory aunt here, a werewolf old lady...
Of course, there are also many things that match the word "magic", such as those magic lamps floating in the air and the alchemy broom that automatically cleans the ground. You can often see faint arcane distortions wandering around in the air. A short and harmless secondary life that came out of the energy well of the magic tower. But these things just make the inside of the magic tower look novel and interesting, and it doesn't make it weird and scary at all.
"I thought the magicians who lived in the tower were gloomy. The magic tower was full of cobwebs and old grease, and even the floor was black," Hao Ren murmured to Becky. That’s how it’s seen in the movies.”
"Even the most old-fashioned High Tower School magician is not like this," Becky rolled her eyes, "not to mention that the association here is a fusion of High Tower School and Academy School magicians, which is even more sinister. And this is an academic facility. , where research is done, how can you work if you don’t have a bright spot?”
Ophra was walking next to Hao Ren. Of course she heard the conversation between the two and couldn't help laughing, "Do you know who owns the brightest magic tower?"
"Whose one?" Hao Ren responded smoothly, "The one who studies the Holy Light?"
Ofra shook her head: "Master Dubai's magic tower has been brightly lit for a whole century, and Master Dubai is one of the best necromancers on the mainland."
Hao Ren was dumbfounded at the time: "What?"
Ofra shrugged: "Because the operation requires bright lights, and the inspection of the corruption of the corpse and bones also requires a good eye."
Hao Ren immediately felt that the door to a new world had been opened, and the three views had been reshaped, but Vivienne Ding who was not far away was not surprised: "It's normal, all the necromancers on the earth work in hospitals. Do you know how powerful the shadowless lamp is?"
Hao Ren: "...fuck it makes sense!"
In the end, the group was taken to the teleportation hall on the second floor of the tower, which happened to be the "breaking point" where the magic tower was drawn into a different space. The ceiling of the hall was covered by a fragmented sky, and lines of blue magic energy criss-crossed in the cracks in the sky. Maintain the energy integrity of the magic tower itself. Rudolph clapped his hands and made the guests stop chatting: "Thanks to the accident that year, it is much cheaper to start this magic circle once than other places. Now please stand within the white circle. Take your luggage and don't use it." Alchemy items and walking around, there will be slight dizziness during the transmission process, but... "
With a flash of white light, everyone in the teleportation array has disappeared into the hall.
Rudolph shrugged: "But anyway, you have passed the news, and you can't protest against me."
A young sorcerer apprentice who was responsible for the daily maintenance of the teleportation array stepped forward to check the status of the energy supply crystal, and couldn't help muttering after hearing what the mentor said: "Teacher, you should be serious once in a while, after all, you are the most..."
Rudolph squinted at his apprentice: "Oh, Searle, you are quite right, then let's seriously discuss the issue of finding your sister's underwear from your closet, and discuss your puberty."
The young apprentice staggered suddenly: "This... Teacher, you know, this is the reason for the space mapping of the seventh-floor dormitory area!"
"Oh, then let's discuss space mapping. Bring your homework from the day before yesterday. There is also a practice book for five years of spellcasting and ten years of simulation."
"...Mentor, I feel that my adolescence needs your guidance!"
Putting the academic dispute between the two magicians aside for the time being, Hao Ren and the others had arrived at the eastern border thousands of kilometers away from the capital in an instant. In this far eastern land bordering the coastline lies one of the most unsettling ancient wonders of the world.
Sunset Volcano created by the werewolf magic emperor Sanur. Another "man-made miracle" as famous as the Longji Mountains.
After the teleportation white light flashed, everyone came to the "gray rock fortress" which was only a short distance away from the sunset mountain range. The teleportation point was set in a watchtower of the fortress. Everyone swayed for a while in a daze. It seemed that the civilian ministers had to continue to sway for a few more minutes, while Hao Ren and the others had already recovered. Lily swung her tail to readjust her balance, and muttered with a little regret: "It feels as dizzy as the teleportation from the terminal."
The voice of the data terminal immediately rang in the minds of several people: "But this machine has strong performance and stable functions, and it is so dizzy to transmit 20 million light years at a time! Can the technology of the small cottage factory compare with the black technology of the empire?"
"That's Sunset Volcano." Ofra nodded to the soldiers of the gray rock fortress outside the teleportation formation, and then motioned Hao Ren to look into the distance. "Another geological wonder created by the magic emperor."
A wide lookout opened in the rocky outer wall of the room. You can have a panoramic view of the sunset volcano not far away.
In the flat, boulder-strewn wilderness, a large-scale cone-shaped volcano stands abruptly. I don't know its scale, but I only know that it almost blocks the sky from this distance. The whole body of the volcano is pitch black, like a piece of cooled black iron, and in the farther place, you can see the vast and boundless ocean.
About one-third of Sunset Volcano extends into the ocean, and deep underground, part of its obsidian mountain even merges with the continental shelf.
And at the top of this huge black cone, you can see a piece of crimson.
Hao Ren couldn't see the top of the volcano from here, but he could see a fiery red light burning there. This light even stained the sky with blood, making one wonder if even the high dome was about to be destroyed. The red light ignites. There wasn't any magma flowing around the volcano, but even so, just that blazing flame was enough to make people feel an unbearable heat coming from the depths of their souls.
It is as if a sun fell into the crater of the volcano - this is the origin of the name of Sunset Volcano.
In fact, to be honest, Hao Ren didn’t expect that one of the sacred caves would be located in the Sunset Volcano by such a coincidence—he was familiar with this place name. It was the ancient magic emperor Sanur who used powerful witchcraft to extract the power from the depths of the earth. Compared with the giant tree of life that has died and the Longji Mountains that have been silent for a long time, the created giant creation has never been extinguished, and it is still burning brightly today, as if it has an incredible "life force". Therefore, there are few people around here. , there is only one impregnable fortress watching the daunting ancient miracle from afar.
Unexpectedly, an eldest son was suppressed under it.
But now, after knowing that the second sacred cave is located under the Sunset Volcano, he seems to have grasped a certain pattern.
"The location of the third sacred cave is under the 'Tree of Life'?" Hao Ren looked at Ofra, "Under the Tree of Life created by the Elf Queen Lolisa in ancient times?"
Sure enough, Ofra nodded slowly: "That's right."
Among the many miracles created by the ancient magic emperors with manpower, three miracles have been passed down to this day and are the most magnificent, including the Longji Mountains in the west of the kingdom, the sunset volcano in the east of the kingdom, and the giant tree of life in the south of the kingdom. Holletta is located on the former site of the ancient magic empire, so these three ruins happen to be within the territory of the kingdom.
They correspond exactly to the three eldest sons.
And the ancient magic empire happened to be the "main battlefield" of the three eldest sons.
All the clues are connected logically.
"We've always known the location of the Sacred Cave," Archbishop Auburn said in a low voice, "but we didn't know the true meaning of the Sacred Cave. We thought the Sacred Cave was located right under the three 'relics of sin' because the goddess was in the three Punishments were sent down, or magic emperors challenged the authority of the goddess with man-made miracles, but the truth is—they are seals used to suppress the eldest son."
"The ancient magic emperors are innocent, they have no crime of blasphemy at all," Hao Ren shook his head, "but I will explain to you in detail when I go back. Now let's go and see the sleeping eldest son. I hope it is sleeping well now. Porcelain."
(I suddenly knew that there will be double tickets at the end of this month... It really is a tragedy, I knew there must be something wrong with me not forgetting to ask for tickets this month!) (To be continued~^~)
