"I don't care what tactics you use against them."
Sitting lazily in a lounge chair surrounded by scattered equipment in the laboratory on the top of the tower, Violet, who was holding Nasia's girlish figure, waved her arm indifferently: "I only care about the present. situation, and whether my domain can land on the sacred mountain."
"This is natural, dear mentor." Duan Qing pouted his lips and stepped forward to sew the door left during the alone meeting with his backhand: "But the landing was forced under unknown circumstances. , wouldn’t it mean that we are being handed over to others for nothing?”
"Don't worry, you have to believe in the power of the Violet Tower and my signature." Still looking indifferent and uncaring, Violet's eyes, buried among countless laboratories and experimental equipment, seemed to He closed it slowly as if he was about to fall asleep: "I said there is no problem if there is no problem - wasn't the control given to you before? Just operate it with peace of mind."
"..." Instead of obeying the other party's words and turning around to leave, Duan Qing's expression became much more solemn at this time: "Your body has not recovered yet?"
"Why, are you afraid of the days when you have no backup?"
"More than that - there are only ten minutes until the next wave. I don't have the confidence to let this floating island activate a spell that can pass through the elemental isolation field." The lying man stood with his hands hanging down. In front of the female great magician on the chair, Duan Qing still frowned tightly: "Is the method you used to send us down the same 'thing' you used before?"
"The 'wormhole' composed of two void cracks is a rare rule that can be exploited in the void that is characterized by chaos." Violet grinned and replied: "Although I have studied the void for many years I haven’t fully mastered this rule, but it’s no problem to move here and send you there, otherwise I wouldn’t have the ability to open the boundary of the void at will.”
"…Then how do I activate it?"
"Take the rune gems I gave you before and complete the conversion between the energy system and the weapon system."
Narrowed eyes flashed in the dim laboratory for a moment, and then Violet buried her voice again in the dullness lying on her side: "Mainly supply energy to the 'Taylor Potter' area , the 'Woride' area supplies 20% energy, please pay attention to stability when charging, and perform the reverse cycle operation when it is about to be completed - these things should not trouble you, right?"
"You... okay." The voice finally became softer, and Duan Qing's hand that had just been stretched out in front of him was retracted: "Then you should have a good rest."
"Huh, nothing will happen to me." Her back was turned away and she looked a little lonely and fragile under the white cloth, which completely covered Violet's face and expression at this time: "I was... I was attracted here by a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity like 'close contact with the Spring of Elements'. How could I fall before this, besides——"
"Even if something happens to me or Fulla, you will still be here."
Turning around and leaving this place, Duan Qing once again put the sound of the door closing behind him. He looked up at the dark depths outside the laboratory door that were still climbing up the spiral staircase. His clenched fists gradually relaxed. Coming down: "Am I still here? Haha."
"I am not even aware of the faith you have placed in me inexplicably."
No longer paying attention to the ethereal feeling coming from above his head, the gray-robed magician returned to the central control room along the stairs: "——I have obtained the permission of the divine envoy and prepare for the final transmission. .”
"Do you want to do it yourself?" Among the countless promises and busy scenes around him, it was Goldman who was the first to ask: "What's the certainty?"
"You have to be sure if you are not sure." Ignoring the doubtful glances that vaguely gathered on him, Duan Qing strode to the console: "As the chief apprentice, you should at least have such confidence, otherwise it would be too embarrassing. It’s over—how long?”
"About five minutes."
The low reminder coming from around him and the huge roar outside that gradually increased echoed in Duan Qing's ears. The strong wind almost right in front of him caused the entire floating island to vibrate and tremble in the air. Those who gathered around the floating island , The magic shield blocking the front of the floating island was accompanied by the appearance of huge pressure and Duan Qing's instructions, and began to appear and disappear in the fragmented scene: "——Then don't wait any longer! Follow my orders!"
"Mobilize all the stored energy! Cut off the suspension system function! Activate the energy zones No. 1, No. 3, No. 4, and No. 5 at full power!"
"The main transportation direction is the Taylor Porter area! The secondary transportation direction is the Warid area! The transmission ratio is adjusted to eight to two!"
"Understood! The stored energy is being transferred! The transfer is currently stable! The estimated completion time is -"
The red light flashing in the control room suddenly brought the atmosphere to the extreme level of tension. All workers in the control room also collectively started frequent operations. As the most skilled among them and the one with the deepest understanding of the Violet System, Xueling Huanbing followed. He was also staring at the screen in front of him, and his movements following Duan Qing's instructions suddenly stopped at this moment: "One minute and thirty seconds! Is this, is it too late?"
"Of course it's in time, because this is just part of the landing plan."
The piercing sirens that echoed throughout the floating island also echoed inside and outside the room. In the suddenly silent air, only Duan Qing's voice wandered for a while: "We don't have to wait for the third wind wall to erupt, we will take the initiative to pass through it." That barrier of isolation.”
"Use the method of crossing the void rift."
Bah--
It was an explosion that was more piercing than the violent wind that had been passing through this place for a long time. It sounded more violent than the thunder and lightning that was close at hand. The floating island, which had lost its levitation power due to the mobilization of energy, was also shaking and falling under the strong storm. , but a dark crack in the void suddenly appeared in front of the fall route that was about to deviate due to the wind. In the eyes of countless people in surprise and panic, Duan Qing reached out and reversed the energy supply that had been mobilized and allocated before, and it appeared in The dark space black hole in front of the floating island is also densely arranged and arranged with countless purple-black rune arrays. In the high sky diagonally below, it is clearly covered with loess and huge rocks that should originally appear under the elemental isolation force field. Shanti: "...Okay, this is probably the limit of what we can do now."
"Hey, are we going to fall into that void rift ourselves?"
"Don't panic. At most, this tower and the entire floating island will return to their origins. It's no big deal."
"That's right! There is actually no difference between venturing into the sacred mountain and venturing into the void! The only difference is probably whether we have the ability to breathe in the void! Hahahahaha!"
The isolation force field film covering the entire front of the sacred mountain caused ripples in the space with the emergence of this void crack. Even the storm passing here became turbulent with the emergence of the dark crack, and was turbulent. The floating island that was rotating and falling seemed to have lost its direction in the air, and rushed into the gap torn open by the crack in an awkward posture as it rolled to an oblique angle. His body shape remained stable in such a situation. Duan Qing, who remained in the control room, pressed the last bit of his strength on the surface of another console that had been set up in front of him. A brand new void crack also appeared here. The diagonal lower part not far behind the dark crack reappeared, and the huge floating island that had been submerged in the void world was completely re-sent with the appearance of rocks and tumbling debris.
boom!
*********************************
"...Now it's better, we have no way out."
Compared with the huge sacred mountain, the floating island that fell halfway up the mountain seemed like a small stone. Although the island was built by an unknown magical structure and reinforced by magic, it was not involved in this huge impact accident. It was completely shattered and collapsed, but it still left a huge hole on the surface of the iron mountain where countless scrap metals were piled up. After struggling to climb out of the crater caused by the impact, Xueling Huanbing, whose hair and clothes were extremely messy, then appeared in the still scattered steel jungle, coughing and shaking away the dust. After she dispersed, she checked the status of her character and complained to Duan Qing, who had just climbed up from beside her: "Is this also in your original plan?"
"Can we still fly back the same way we came? It doesn't really matter if there is any base in the air." Duan Qing answered her with a bitter smile that also sounded like a cough: "We can ensure the integrity of the Violet Tower and most of the island members If we land successfully under the premise of safety, it is already the best result."
"At least the weapon system and defense system are still complete, right." So Xue Ling Huan Bing, who straightened up, also pressed hard on his waist and ribs that seemed a little painful under the impact: "Although I think even this , it’s hard for us to keep our bodies intact in the enemy’s base camp... You guys! Get up!"
"Don't just sit around here! Those who can fight, pick up weapons for me! The sacred mountain won't leave us much time to rest. As long as we don't break our legs, let's make defensive preparations first. Hurry!"
Tense and orderly defenses began to form quickly around the location where the floating island fell, but the number of participants did not reach the expected standard. The soldiers and ordinary grassland tribesmen who were injured in the previous "hard landing" were also subsequently The others moved out one by one among the scattered metal and gravel, gradually arranging themselves under the surrounding wasteland composed of countless steel jungles and busy people. Commanding Jian Beidong and other powerful guys to immediately start preparations for frontline reconnaissance, Xue Ling Huan Bing finally relaxed for a moment from her busy movements. She raised her head and looked at what had passed over her head. The clear sky left behind after the third wind wall erupted and the complete void rift that had long since been re-closed. My ears were constantly filled with chaotic and noisy noises: "All the injured are already here. Right? Then there are 12 people from the Sioux tribe and 9 people from the Tatar tribe...are there any missing ones?"
"Is there any movement from the direction of the foot of the mountain? No? Don't lose your vigilance. The enemy may appear in front of us at any time. They just haven't come over now! Continue patrolling!"
"Where is Linyuan Shuishui? Where did the others go...what? Are those mechanical guards surrounding me again?"
"With such a big commotion, it would be strange if they didn't rush over. He is the only one among us who still has the capital to negotiate. If he doesn't go, who else can go?"
Xue Ling Huan Bing took a deep breath and closed her eyes as if she wanted to wake up from the chaos and noise. A feeling of dizziness spread along with the scars and fatigue all over her body. Gradually it crept into her mind, making the noise from all around her become more and more trance-like. Holding her forehead and staggering two steps to the side, the white-haired swordswoman hurriedly hid her body among the scattered ruins that could not be seen by the people around her. She tried her best to maintain a standing posture and then worked hard to overcome it. This dizzy feeling hit me for unknown reasons, and the thoughts in my heart began to become complicated and confusing.
Is it because of the previous injury?
It may also be because I haven’t rested recently. The intensity of the recent series of actions was indeed too high. Before setting off, I checked my physical condition in real life. At that time...
No, that’s not right. I checked my physical condition carefully at that time. This kind of familiar sign——
Is it a psychic attack?
An electric current of alertness flashed through his heart, and Xueling Huanbing suddenly opened his eyes. His pupils, which were trying hard to restrain the dizziness and discomfort, involuntarily expanded again, taking in everything that suddenly appeared in front of him. In the field of vision at that time - there were still icy mountain peaks blowing with the biting cold knife. The endless ridges were also covered by a large amount of snow. The front of the lonely front ridge was completely devoid of the phantom ice response of the snow spirit. The top of the mountain covered by wind and snow seemed to be shining with the faint brilliance that the stars in the dark night should have.
At this time, a solitary slender figure, with a scarlet cloak piercing the air and the sound of hunting wind, trudged forward along the center of the snow-covered ridge. The hilt of the sword at his waist made a creaking sound in the deep snow. , also echoing with the faint shouts of killing echoing around.
"You have no right to be here! Go back!"
"Go back! Go back! Otherwise your fate will end here!"
"In the face of the mighty power of fate, the name of emperor is meaningless!"
"Having overthrown the remnants of the former Ministry of Magic, you think you can challenge the divine authority? A humble and insignificant mortal!"
Like a fish being dragged out of the pond, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was holding her chest tightly, gasped loudly, but her eyes did not move as she watched the figure gradually climb up. At the slightest moment, the sight that was attracted by a magnet also became brighter in the deafening sound of drinking at the next moment.
"attack!"
