A low, long voice came from the lower reaches of the river, with a low octave echo, as if a giant beast was vigorously breathing with his nose. I have never heard such a voice, but Sagina's face suddenly showed joy. The look: "Ah, our time is really good, the ship is coming so soon!" It seems that the World ship's whistle while sailing.
A huge figure appeared in the distance with the sound of the whistle. It moved fast, and it did n’t take long to appear completely in our sight. It was a double-layer or three-layer metal structure ship. The ship's body is painted with strange colored lines, and the sails are not seen, but white waves can be seen rising from the stern. I felt from afar that a stable energy source was releasing energy inside, which may explain why we did not see the sail on this wooden boat: it seems to be driven by Magic.
A product of alchemy technology ... well, I ’m used to this Magic World coming out of a variety of clever civilian machinery, who said that Magic can not produce the same civil field as the science and technology civilization, after fully automatic reaction After the gravity Magic elevator, we saw another steel power ship with a magic power shield and a speed of 35 knots, and the cargo surface also used enchanting technology to solve the problem of water flow resistance-the last point is in my mind The Alaya stretched out found that the mystical knowledge of the dormant was at its peak, sole view knowledge, Icetis, a true **** who lived on a battle, could not compare with her. No matter what rules World follows, just analyze the energy of surroundings space With active values and certain "frequency", Alaya can judge the Magic form with more than 80% of World.
I have to say that this is a terrible ability, but the guy who owns this horrible ability currently seems to have the only role of dozing off and carrying the child in my mind. Oh yeah, I came out every three minutes and let me brush her hair. Alaya is really a degenerate pig.
Sagina ’s own portable space (after Lynn ’s direct “blessing”), the two half-dragon girls now have their own portable space. Although they are not skilled yet, they are always more convenient than their original large backpacks. Many.) Took out a small yellow-brown pimple, and fiddled with it a few times. After a short while, the steel freighter approaching here made a short three whistle sounds, seemingly responding what. Sagina smiled and raised a small square in his hand to me: "This is a help sender. Explorers will bring this kind of thing when they go out. Many large teams working outside have equipment to accept this help signal because The existence of the lost World and various field rescue techniques are the fastest growing here. This is the last essential benefit that this World retains for the high-risk career of explorers. "Sagina may have learned from Lily Na The word "welfare" is now accurately and immediately applied.
Me: "..." Meow, earthling does not have this technology-of course, it can be said that there is this technology, but it is not so perfect as Magic World, everyone has already established an instant help network within the scope of the entire World, Does this really have any rules?
Soon the big ship came near us. It was hundreds of meters away from the shore, but just put down a small boat, and the three black strong sailors in coarse blouses were driving the small boat: "Hey! was your signal just now?"
"Ah, we are probing ... travellers," Sagina replied while pulling out money from his pocket. "We are going to Tower of Sky, hoping to take a boat. Of course, we pay the toll according to the rules. . "
"Go to Tower of Sky?" The leading black uncle glanced at our group of people, "The number is really a lot ... Uh, I said, you wouldn't come from the teleportation point here?" The other party seemed suddenly Thinking of something, I looked up at the mist on the far side of the river bank, where was the transmission area from motherland. As a sailor who walked on this river all the year round, he certainly knew that it was a day when the transmission was open.
"Well, there is a special reason." Sagina smiled recklessly, "Can we get on the boat now?"
The black-strong sailor looked at us with uncertain eyes. In the end, he might feel that even a bold private looting group did not lead his wife and children out to rob the cargo ship on the empty river, so he nodded. , The urn said vigorously: "Come on, but don't move, and remember the rules on the floating river, children can't go to the back deck."
A large group of people came to the huge steel freighter in a small boat. The freighter made a long whistle, and then set sail on the voyage again, taking the wind and waves, and shallowly led a group of baby heads with joy on the wide deck. Running around, grabbing a camera card, wiping the card, and taking photos, I guess she planned to post on Weibo afterwards-then she had to find a way to stop her. My sister lay on the side of the boat blowing the calm breeze on the suspended river, and the dark hair flicked slightly in the air, then she glanced at me: "If you send it directly upstream, it will not be so good fun. See Look below, it seems that you can vaguely see the clouds under the river. "
I agree with my sister ’s opinion, riding a magically driven cargo ship, sailing on the river channel suspended in the sky, what you can see is not the water surface and the river bank, but the endless sea of clouds, the river below is clear and bottomless You can even vaguely see the clouds under deep water. This kind of fairy tale-like scenery is indeed very rare. Although I have been to many strange Worlds, I have also seen various magical scenes including Universe wonders, But Void is so vast, there are still many things that I have never seen before: for example here.
With such wonderful scenery, it is no wonder that Shallow will be happy like that.
"A'Jun A'Jun! Look at that!" Shallow suddenly ran over and pulled my arm towards the sky, along the direction of her finger, I was suddenly surprised: at the edge of the sea of cloud, vaguely about appeared A white castle.
It was also suspended in the sky, as if it were composed of clouds, and the magnificent castle, which was white and crystal clear, reflected the shining light under the sky light of unknown origin over the hanging river.
"I feel really the same as the fairy tale World!" I shook my arm happily, "I finally realized my childhood dream!"
I recognized for a long time, and finally recognized that the cloud castle in the sky is nothing else. It is the frozen castle in my house. If you look closely, the huge hole in the castle gate is still there!
"I just put it there, it is still in the sky," Qian Qian looked smug, as if someone else in waiting for praised her creativity, "Is n’t it more like fairy tale World? I was nine years old I dreamt of this. Sitting on the flying Magic ship, there is a castle built of clouds in the distance. In the castle is the Princess cloud of beautiful. Then I am a witch from the north and go to rob the prince with Princess ... "
Lin Xue was standing next to her, and she was also indulged in the wonders here, and was attracted by the fairy tales that were shallowly told: at least in the first half, but when she heard the second half, she really was Still did not come up and choke in a breath: "cough cough ...... Become a witch to grab the prince with Princess? What was the girl's stimulation when she was a kid?"
"There is a follow-up to her story," I squinted at Ojou-sama. "Halfway, she met Eastern Witch, Western Witch, and Southern Witch, so four people teamed up to brush Princess, and finally broke the cloud with the prince Castle. Every fairy tale book I read when I was a child was continued by her, and it is still hidden by her as a baby. Do you want to see it? "
Lin Xue was dumbfounded and muttered: "... I was dreaming that I was the Princess of the fairy kingdom until I was eleven ... compared with this guy who turned into a witch and brushed the Princess prince at the age of nine It ’s really weak ... "
I smiled and looked at the shallow side, and suddenly felt that this may be the cutest side of the other party, regardless of the association of the everything in disorder, I can treasure the fairy tale from the age of nine to the present, and it is really in the sky I built a castle in the cloud, and I still enjoy it. I haven't paid attention to the impact of time passing on my own heart. How can such a girl be described as cute?
Okay, I know there is another way to describe it as stupidity ... I do n’t deny it, really.
"A'Jun, look! There are fish in the river!" I couldn't rest for a moment, I just urged to put away the frozen castle (I'm worried that the thing is frightening, although it looks like here It is similar to a mirage), and she pointed to the bottom of the ship again. She turned out that the side of the freighter did not know when a large group of fish gathered, and was leaning tightly against the boat. Of course, it was fish, just because they were in the water Swimming here, these strange creatures are very different from the fish of on the Earth. They have a gray-black carapace on their backs. body is almost perpendicular to the water. They are close to the high-speed cargo ships with their abdomen. I want to hang myself on the boat. Occasionally, weird "fish" with weaker physical strength are repelled by nearby shock waves, but most of them end up close to the hull in a safe and sound state.
“That ’s the gray-gilled fastfish, a special product of the Xuankong River,” Sagina introduced. “This kind of fish lives near the broken bank in the middle of the Xuankong River. It will flow upstream once every month to spawn, because The fry are weak, and they will not look for rock nests to avoid turbulence. If they are born directly downstream, they will be washed out of the hanging river and float into the clouds. They are very smart guys. They will specialize when going upstream. The cargo ship passing by waiting for rushed up to catch a sail boat, of course, if it was not crowded, it could only go upstream by itself. "
"Oh--" Shandora lengthened his voice and suddenly pulled my arm, "A'Jun, I want to eat."
I'm covering my head: "This is all rare animals, you should keep a little bit of virtue."
"A'Jun A'Jun," Shallow did n’t know when he stood at the tip of the bow of the ship ’s bow, and opened his arms to greet me against the river wind, "Come and hug me from behind to see if it looks like Titanic, I will still sing that song, my law of conservation ... "
My sister and I hurriedly pulled this girl down, and fell into a row: "This is unlucky!"
The days with this sister together are so much fun, she ca n’t do what normal people can think of.
The voyage is smooth and fast. The magic-powered cargo ship relies on directly controlling Water Element in the rear of the hull to generate propulsion. at the same time uses the enchantment on the ship to offset 70% or 80% of the resistance of the water flow, so the speed is amazingly fast The ship slowed down once during the entire journey: when approaching a narrow river channel, the cargo ship had to slow down for safety.
Navigating a suspended river is a bit more dangerous than navigating in a river above the ground, that is, you must never lean on - near the - shore -, and land on a boat. If the course is out of control and close to the river bank, the worst case is just to hit the reef. It is easy to rescue even if the boat sinks, and it is easy to rescue even if the boat sinks. Once the river is rushed out of the river ... surroundings 6-7 ten percent but there is no river bank, you will fly out of the water and rush into the thickness of more than ten kilometers. In the clouds, and then I do n’t know where to go. It is said that a similar accident occurred in history. It was in the early days of the establishment of the Hanging River Route. A magic-powered cargo ship lost control when passing a bend and plunged into the nearby sea of clouds. So far, the wrecked cargo ship is still floating in the clouds. As the clouds and mist drift around the floating river, the crew above is very lucky. They were found and rescued by the Griffon Knights before starving to death, but people can do nothing about it The giant ship was pulled back to the river, so it became a warning monument. If you have good eyesight and good luck, you may even occasionally see the high bow of the "Vagrant Ship" sticking out of the far cloud.
These stories are all told by Sagina, she is like an encyclopedia. Although the level of self-mockery is not high, she knows a lot of bizarre legend stories, all accumulated in the adventure life over the years.
"Mum ---" A whistle that was louder than before interrupted the chats of our group of inattentive tourists. It turned out that the cargo ship had begun to slow down unconsciously. In front of us, the river suddenly It has become extremely wide, and both sides are already full of vast rivers. If you have not strengthened your vision, you may not see the river bank and the buildings in the distance in the distance, and mistakenly thought you came to the sea. In front is an island covered with verdant vegetation. The island is facing a recessed place on this side. It happens to be a pure natural port, and the cargo ship is about to call the port.
"The two sides of the strait are residential areas, but there is nothing beautiful. The place is crowded. There are only two military towns stationed in Soldier," Sagina said. "The transmission area of Tower of Sky is on the island, and it is not far from the shore. Go, do it. In preparation for a fight, the Tower of Sky back door is guarded. "
Sona went to say hello to the ship boss, and then helped my sister and Saeko to gather the bear children and large bear children who were already running on the deck. A group of us got out of the boat and set off I landed on the land of the largest island in this hanging river.
There are not many people in the Xuankong River area. After all, here is also lost World instead of motherland. The people stationed here are equivalent to being stationed in a different space. Naturally, they cannot become too large scale. There are some troops on this island except for the cargo loading and unloading port. In addition to the permanent residence of workers, other places are basically savage areas: no one intends to set up a home in this place anyway. The transmission point of Tower of Sky is under the cliff 100 meters away from the port. On the back is the megalithic cliff, and in front is a large open beach. The scale of this transmission point is quite small. In fact, the only abnormality that can be seen is There is only a stone-and-brick floor on the river beach that is only about one hundred square meters: a stone-and-brick floor is projected abruptly on the river and sand piled up by gravel and stones. This is the entrance of Tower of Sky.
However, as long as you stand on this stone and brick floor, the scenery around us changes instantly.
The wide water surface of the Xuankong River disappeared in front of you, replaced by a huge and staggering boulder square.
Huge stone bricks with a length of several meters are laid on the ground with the level of cleverness of the sky. Each stone brick has a simple and beautiful ratio of mysterious lines. These lines extend tightly and seamlessly across the square. All have formed a complete pattern: Of course, the what is this pattern cannot be seen on the ground. Except for this huge stone square, everybody is empty in front of its eyes. There is nothing else, only the edge of the square is connected to the cloud.
"That's Tower of Sky," Sagina turned around, pointing behind everybody, "It's spectacular, isn't it? No matter how many times I have seen it, it's an amazing miracle. Unfortunately, Sona and I have only been here. Twice, Tower of Sky is too dangerous for a small team like us. "
"I'm going!" I turned my head to look at it and couldn't help but exclaimed, "This ... this Nima is bigger than World Tree!"
What I saw was not a tower at all! In other words, it is indeed a tower, but at this distance, it is impossible to see its structure as a tower: this thing is too huge! What appears in front of him is a wall with a slight arc and endless walls. The wall extends to both sides to the end of the line of sight. It looks like a vertical horizon. How high is it?
I ca n’t see the top, so I tilted my head to the limit, and I could only see that the wall of the heaven and earth disappeared at the end of the clear sky.
This huge thing is certainly not the first time I saw it. In fact, as long as you get close to the giant space warships made by the empire, each of them can give you the same feeling, similar to the huge to produce I have long seen the illusion of "a piece of vertical earth" in the Empire Star Harbor. No matter how big this Tower of Sky is, it will certainly not be able to beat the Eternal Level mother ship-even the size of a medium-sized Empire warship. It's just that this place is different. It's not Shadow City here. It's different World. It's a different World that even builds house and relies on stones and wooden blocks!
This tower is definitely not made by any existing civilization of this World-of course, I have known for a long time that every ruin in the lost World is not made by any existing civilization of motherland, but this Tower of Sky The scale still exceeded my expectations.
No decoration can be seen on the outer wall of Tower of Sky. It is a layer of light yellow smooth surface, no windows or brick joints, and no signs of its layering. The material is not gold, wood or stone. This outer wall alone has generated a lot of interest.
"It's a complex synthetic material," Shandora just glanced at the composition of the tower wall, to scan, but she obviously thought more than just what the tower was made of, "the tower's height reached three Fifteen kilometers, its own weight ... makes no sense. It relies on anti-gravity and regional vector fine-tuning to maintain its stability. The entire tower is changing its net mass at a fixed period. In addition, there is energy shielding inside the tower. "(To be continued.
