If you want to know the answer, you naturally have to go up and have a look.

Catherine stepped up to the metal pedal that came forward to catch the mooring, and followed it upwards. Unfortunately, to her disappointment, the metal pedal changed direction as it traveled close to the clouds, docking onto a large platform.

The Ice Bear Abyss stood on the platform, and Catherine beckoned to her from afar before she could reach it.

The platform, which appears to be extending from the outer wall of the steel building, is about ten square meters in size, and is surrounded by seven or eight tracks, which should be the terminus of metal treads.

"So far, at least that cloud hasn't lied to us. The Ice Bear Abyss reached out to help Catherine down from the metal pedal, "There's a door over there. ”

"Thank you. Catherine thanked her as she looked at the outer wall of the building, a huge gate, three or four meters high, very heavy, as strong as an ice bear abyss, and it was impossible to lift it up. Fortunately, there is also a small gate on the gate, which is just enough for one person.

The two of them walked to the small door, which had neither a handle nor a hammer, and seemed to open only from the inside. The Ice Bear Abyss tentatively pushed it, but he didn't expect to push a crack inside.

The old barbarian suddenly came to his senses and pushed the door open. Catherine glanced inside and went inside, and the Ice Bear Abyss also saw the situation inside, and lowered her head and squeezed into the door as well.

After the two entered, the small door closed automatically. A faint glow swept across the gate, and the entire gate vanished, turning into the usual façade of the building.

Behind the door, Catherine and the Ice Bear Abyss stood in a hallway, neither of them rushing forward, but looking at the walls of the hallway. Because the walls are engraved with wonderful ancient elven words, whether it is the walls on either side, the ceiling or the floor, they cover everything from top to bottom, and the words are staggered and undulating, giving off a gentle light.

"There's something magical about this place, I know a lot of words, but I can't understand what they mean. "As a shaman of the sacred mountain, the Ice Bear Abyss is no stranger to the ancient elven language, which is a language that must be mastered.

"I've seen places like this. Catherine lightly touched the wall with her palm, followed the lit ancient elven language all the way, and walked seven or eight steps before turning around, "I have indeed seen it, do you know the Elven King Barrier?"

Catherine never imagined that she would have the opportunity to see the man-made structure built by the legendary elves for the second time. In the prison of the underworld, she entered the Paradise of the Blasphemers, and unexpectedly met the fair and friendly justice, the architect. When the architect sheltered Catherine and the Will of Fire, he showed such a wall of the Elven King's wall. The appearance of the wall, especially the ancient elven language shining on the wall, was exactly the same as the corridor in front of him.

"Elven King Barrier...... Haven't heard of it. Ice Bear Abyss thought for a moment, convinced that he didn't know.

"In short, it is an artificial structure built by the elves for the use of the elven king. My teacher, Quisling, once put forward the hypothesis that during the time of the Elven King, the Elven Empire had built a large number of magical buildings. Catherine pointed around, "The teacher's hypothesis has never been confirmed, but this is the second time I've seen this kind of structure. ”

"Is your teacher a scholar who specializes in the history of elves? The Ice Bear Abyss looked at Catherine again with interest, "In the universities of the Bercy Empire, it is said that there is such a group of scholars who study elven history for a living. ”

"No, my teacher is the Grand Magician of the Royal Academy, and the study of history is just one of his hobbies. Catherine smiled and shook her head.

However, there are still scholars who specialize in the history of elves in the human empire of the Western Continent, which makes Catherine a little surprised, but she doesn't know what kind of research results the elven historians in the Western Continent have. Teacher Quisling must be very interested in the research results.

"It turns out that you are still a disciple of a great magician. The Ice Bear Abyss was a little surprised, although he had always known that Catherine was a magician and had an extraordinary soul inheritance, the status of a disciple of the Great Magician was also extraordinary.

There is no such thing as a magician on the Western continent, and there is no so-called elemental magic system. Whether it is the Bercy Empire or the Kingdom of Behemoths, they all use witchcraft as a sign of great power.

Of course, with the opening of the eastern and western continental shipping lanes in recent years, exchanges between the two sides have been increasing day by day. Books about elemental magic have also begun to circulate in the Belcy Empire in the Western Continent, but the Ice Bear Abyss has been obsessed with the study of the spirit world in recent decades, and its understanding of elemental magic is only superficial.

But that doesn't mean that the Ice Bear Abyss doesn't know the power of the Great Mage. The Great Mage of the Eastern Continent once visited the Belcy Empire and participated in a campaign in a hunting war. Through his powerful elemental magic, the Grand Mage directly leveled a barbarian fortress, and thousands of barbarian warriors were reduced to ashes in an instant.

At that time, the shaman of Mount Kinabalu who had gone to the rescue saw a huge fireball falling from the sky from afar, and even after such a long time, the shock and grief could not be calmed down in his heart in retrospect.

It was probably Catherine's status as a great magician disciple that touched the thoughts of the Ice Bear Abyss, and the old barbarian was immersed in his memories and did not say a word for a long time.

Catherine thought that the Ice Bear Abyss was thinking about something, so she didn't bother. Taking advantage of this time, she carefully studied the elven architecture.

The ancient elven language on the elven building is always emitting a soft light, and the whole corridor is full of peace and tranquility. I don't know how long it took, the ice bear abyss woke up from its contemplation, and saw Catherine, who was standing two or three meters away, staring at the ceiling obsessively and falling into a trance.

The old barbarian frowned, and then remembered the thought he had been immersed in just now, and immediately realized that the ancient elven language shining in this corridor was likely to affect the hearts of ordinary people.

The Ice Bear Abyss stepped forward and patted Catherine on the shoulder, but the mage didn't react at all, and looked at the ceiling with a satisfied expression.

The Ice Bear Abyss was helpless, so he simply grabbed Catherine's shoulder and shook it vigorously. After shaking it four or five times, the female mage finally reacted and turned her head as if she had realized something.

"What's wrong with me? Why am I here?" Catherine's mind went blank as she realized that she was missing a piece of her memory. She couldn't remember how she got here, and she couldn't remember why she was standing here.

The Ice Bear Abyss's brow furrowed as he told Catherine what had happened since she entered the hallway. Turning his head, the Ice Bear Abyss couldn't find the small door that the two of them had entered.
