The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 16: Tongtian Tower Trial (Part 1)


"What." Jonah didn't react for a while, but Elliott spoke first: "Of course we are willing to accept this gift, Mrs. Duran, if you guess right, you can do it. The reason is that the entire tower "Lizhu" is now part of the Black Cat Cafe. You also have absolute control over the time and space in the Tongtian Tower. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If Your Excellency Jonah announces any rejection of your kindness The nonsense, it’s just an impulse, please don’t take it seriously."

"I refuse." The astrologer shouted immediately,

"Look, that's it." The Rose Knight stretched out his arms helplessly, "Don't take it seriously."

The 17-year-old turned to look at the knight, and said anxiously: "What are you doing, Ellie, I really don’t want to accept this gift. If I enter the tower of trial with my current strength, I can’t climb that high, not for nothing. Is it a waste of opportunity? If you want to go, it should be you, Long Ji, or strong people like Sibi and Hannah."

"Yes, the strong." Danny Stewart pointed to the tip of his nose smugly, "Wait, did you deliberately skip my name, cargo friend."

Elliott smiled and said: "No, a world has the rules of a world. We believe that Mrs. Duran’s gift cannot be given away. This is a rare opportunity. Go bravely, and please pay attention. Security, we don’t understand the rules in the Tongtian Tower, but judging from the exits that appear every tenth floor, "give up in time" is a very important belief. Please remember to do what you can."

The proprietress poked her mouth impatiently, slapped the flour on her apron: "Are you finished discussing it, we can just send you in and we can call it a day, oh oh oh... where to open the shop next time, Ke Qian Don’t find the Black Cat Cafe anymore, everyone."

Bile echoed with a sad face: "That's it, it's almost become my job to die again and again, and there is no overtime pay."

The red-haired Jofanie smiled: "I really like these customers. The black cat must also like them very much, otherwise I won't appear in front of the pitchfork team again."

"Well, I accept this gift, Mrs. Duran." Jonah finally nodded heavily. His heart was filled with anxiety and panic. No one knew that the Sky Tower "Lizhu" was hidden in the sky. What kind of institutions and monsters, according to Long Ji’s introduction, every year thousands of warriors with dreams swarm from all over the Southern Kingdom, waiting for the gate of the tower of trial to open to themselves, only less than one percent. The lucky ones can pass the selection of the tower and ascend the first step of the mysterious tower. Among them, less than one percent of the lucky ones can retreat from the tower of trial, with scars all over their bodies. Back to the ground with soaring strength,

Their destiny will be completely changed. The mainland has never lacked respect for the absolute strong. The Southern Merchants army, major family forces and various guilds have arranged eyeliners at the Lizhu Hostel. Every time the "Bronze Gate" "The moment of initiation and the return of the testers is the moment when the various forces are scrambling for the newly born capable people. For the small town of Lizhu, it is a special celebration, one in ten thousand lucky ones. It sounds logical to get the courtesy of thousands of people, but no one cares about the losers who are swallowed up by the tower. The space inside the tower is layered and independent, and there will be no encounters between the testers. Therefore, the bones of the victims will be buried forever in the tower, and the bright sunlight will never be seen again. Now many powerless people who linger outside the Lizhu Hostel are the friends and family members of these testers, and they hold a glimmer of hope. Staying in this small town for a long time, waiting for the triumphant return of the testers, one year, five years, ten years, time has passed, they can only become wandering spirits outside the town after spending their money, but it takes the longest time in history It took a full fifteen years and four months for a tester to leave the tower from the thirtieth floor. Who knows when the next sun rises, his relatives and friends will raise their heads from the bronze gate Out,

Each tower has three gates: the "Black Iron Gate" where the tester enters, the "Bronze Gate" where the tester leaves halfway, and the path after the tester climbs to the top of the tower to conquer the tower." The Silver Gate", of course, in the long history of the Eastern Continent, there has never been a person who can leave from the Silver Gate,

"You can bring anything you want in, bed crossbows, chariots, cannons, anything. This tower is very strange. I can only help you open the gate and erase the marks of time and space, but what's the situation inside? I can’t figure it out. If I die, I won’t be responsible.” Mrs. Duran walked to Jonah, put her right hand on the astrologer’s shoulder, and flirted with responsibility.

Hannah came over, her eyes full of worry, and she reached out and handed the magic gun "Admiral" in her arms to the boy, "What are you doing, my prodigal sister, I won't touch that gun. Did you leave it to an outsider like this? The only good things left in the Stewart house are going to be lost." Danny immediately jumped and cried, and quietly tucked the short sword he wanted to hand over to Jonah back to the bottom of his sleeve. ,

"No, thank you, Hannah, I have them enough. After all, I am an astrologer. I will fight in my own way." Jonah raised the staff, Silafauna, to Hannah. Sign,

At this time, Long Ji walked to the astrologer, leaned down and said softly to him, "What." Jona said in a daze, if the oriental woman has the smell of orchids and hair. The numbness of his neck and the temperature of the balsam-like gorgeous lips made his heart surge, and his ears buzzed. After not hearing what she was saying for a while, Long Ji shook his head and moved closer to Jona’s ear to repeat it. Again,

"Ah." After understanding the secret words of the woman, the third-level astrologer became even more confused, "You mean, there is such a one in every tower..."

Long Ji raised a finger and said, "Shh."

Ms. Duran said loudly: "Is it all right? Let's set off when it's done."

The Eastern woman stood beside the Rose Knight, with dark eyes looking at him quietly. Danny gave a thumbs up, but Hannah turned around, as if she couldn't bear to experience the difference personally, "Come on, brother." Tin Sitting on the shoulder of the adult, he waved his small fist vigorously, "My uncle and I will be waiting for you here."

"It's so grand, it's not a scene in a knight novel..." The lady boss commented with her mouth shrunk, "It will be over when you don't even notice it. If this kid in blue clothes is still standing in a second Here, it means that he successfully passed the trial of'Lizhu'; if he disappears, it means that he was swallowed by the Sky Tower, then I have nothing to do. After all, luck is also part of strength."

"One second, one second has passed when you talked, madam boss." The male Stewart called,

"Yes, so it's over." Mrs. Duran blinked at the pitchfork partners, her eyes bright as two morning stars, her right hand was still on the astrologer's shoulder, as if never Moving a bit, the pale young man wearing a blue astrologer robe, curly hair, and a law stick has not changed, even the slightly panicked expression on his face has not changed,

"Well, good job." The lady boss patted the boy on the shoulder,

The change did happen. Everyone noticed that d. Jonah II’s eyes changed drastically. If the previous astrologer had a pair of clear, innocent, and confused eyes, it would be blue after a second. The eyes of the robed warlock have completely erased the innocent beauty and youthful confusion, and transformed into a firm and unmatched gaze like a torch in the night,

"Ah, everyone." Jonathan spent half a minute looking at his friends in the field, and a long-lost smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I haven't seen you for so long, you are all still here. Alright..."

Danny looked at him strangely: "What did you say, it's just a second."

"For two years, Danny, for two years." The astrologer looked down at his body in a slightly unfamiliar manner. "I kept climbing up and fighting countless monsters. There was no sun in the tower. The rising moon and falling, in order to remind myself not to forget the passage of time, every time the moonlight elf can be summoned, I put a small stone in my pocket. When I left the exit of the 70th floor, the small stone was already It made me struggling to walk. I counted it. There were 730 stones in total. I spent two full years in the dark tower of Tongtian. My body is constantly growing. I have grown up... but that's just an illusion. Right, Mrs. Duran."

The lady boss replied: "The time and space in you have been zeroed out. You can treat this memory as an illusion. In fact, it won’t take long before you will gradually forget this unreal past, because after all, that It’s not what happened in the time and space of your life, but the changes brought about by this experience are real. Although the mind, life and body are still the same, you must have a deep understanding of what you once had. ,,, This kind of knowledge and experience is my gift to you. In the days to come, you don’t have to fumble around on the road to become stronger. The right direction is already unfolding before your eyes."

"Yes, Mrs. Duran." Jonah raised his right hand and looked at the empty palm. "This is a very precious asset."

"Huh, it's finally done." Madame Duran stretched her waist and yawned wearily: "It's really tiring, Bill, Jofanie, let's go."

Yofani reminded: "Boss, I saw Serfina in their memory, don't you want to do something to that woman."

"I'm not in that mood today. People who abuse the law of causality will always be sanctioned by the law of causality. No one can cheat the rules forever." The proprietress waved her hand, "Goodbye, annoying guys, I hope I'll never see you again." /
