Chapter 0705: Fighting for Heaven
The battle between the two Tier 4 continues.
And in the floating giant ship under Black Smoke Ussa, everyone was already busy.
Metal cabins were breached, and all unnecessary ancillary facilities were removed. The interior of the cabin is engraved with all kinds of mystical runes, and when the powerful magical energy flows in it, it shines with dazzling magical aura from time to time.
Thick metal pipes crisscrossed the city, channeling the magical energy extracted from the space furnace to every part of the huge hull little by little.
Due to the crudeness of the makeshift transformation, the junctions of these energy pipes leaked magical energy of incredible intensity from time to time. And every time this happens, it's the moment when those goblin engineers shout and command the maintenance robots to rush up for welding and maintenance.
Although there are more than a dozen goblin engineers, more than thirty goblin technicians, and hundreds of construction robots working against time to maintain the floating ship, the magical energy leaking out of the energy pipeline still reaches an astonishing level.
As a result, in some areas of the ship's interior, the previously rich magical energy has formed terrifying areas of death. Ordinary goblins can be killed as soon as they get close.
And such an area can only be entered by wizards with extremely high magic resistance and defensive sorcery!
At this time, the floating giant ship has lost the ability to fly again. All 'useless' and 'ineffective' ship facilities have been dismantled and replaced with metal pipes that carry magical energy. The Floating Giant has also been transformed from a flying vehicle for wizards into a makeshift wizard tower.
What is the Wizard's Tower?
It's just a special sorcery facility that assists wizards in battle and life!
If you want to build a wizard tower, the most important thing is to build a source of mana.
As for ordinary wizard towers, most of them absorb out-of-bounds energy through elemental altars.
The Floating Giant Ship had nothing else, but the space furnace installed in its core could be transformed into the source of the magic of a wizarding tower through the simplest transformation, and it was more powerful and violent.
Therefore, during the long stay on the overseas island, the floating giant ship has been working hard to carry out this kind of fundamental hull transformation. When it landed on the ground in the Dragon Cave, it was impossible to fly on its own.
However, with the support of huge energy and the various types of witch arrays painted all over the ship, the entire floating giant ship was transformed into a temporary witch tower.
Without a solid tower with excellent material as a carrier, the original thick metal shell of the giant ship was used as a carrier, and the rune lines all over the tower body were used as energy transmission pipes, so crude metal pipes were used, and there was no strange tower spirit with overall planning, Grim did not hesitate to stand up and act as a spirit to act as the central control witchcraft crystal......
Coupled with the defensive and attacking arrays carved all over the ship, a system of witch towers that was full of mistakes and omissions, but barely functioned, was built.
And under the careful and meticulous command of Grim's incarnation into a spirit, the resources, manpower and material resources of the entire floating giant ship have been fully and reasonably utilized, becoming the strongest support for the black smoke above!
However, as the battle between Black Smoke Usa and that Rank 4 Elven Sword Saint became more and more intense, this simple witch tower system was also suffering from more and more terrifying energy backlash.
Every collision of powerful forces of the two Rank 4 can trigger a reverse flow of energy in the local pipeline. And these ordinary metals obviously couldn't bear such terrifying magical energy erosion and shock, and a large number of magic leaks began to appear one after another.
Inside the floating giant ship, the undulating energy blasts are endless, and nearly half of the goblins have been directly killed by the harsh 'environment' inside the hull. The remaining goblin engineers and technicians can only barely survive in certain areas by hiding inside the golems.
While Grim is meticulously manipulating the 'Witch Tower' energy system to give Black Smoke Usa the maximum power support, he is also distracting and controlling a number of construction robots, struggling to weld and block more and more energy leaks on the metal pipes.
As for the metal pipes that have been twisted and ruptured by the explosion and have lost their repair value, a temporary pipe can only be erected to replace the damaged parts.
As the battle progressed, there were more and more temporary patches and temporary pipes, and the energy system became less and less efficient at transmitting magical energy. Later, even some of the most leaked areas of the ship, even those low-level wizards did not dare to enter easily.
Even with their strength, if they rashly enter these areas, there is a high probability of direct death!
…………
From time to time, a loud rumbling sound outside entered the secret passage of the Dragon Cave.
Every once in a while, even the mountain where the Dragon Cave is located will tremble uncontrollably, and the fluttering fragments of broken stone will fall from the rock wall, and the secret passage will be filled with the smell of debris dust.
The magic traps in the secret passage have been swept away.
With the help of several Witches of Fate, the weakened Alice reluctantly moved into the Dragon's Cave.
Truth be told, the hall where the dragons rest and slumber, without the glittering gold coins and gems, would be as crude as an ogre's kennel.
An unusually tall and spacious stone hall was littered with broken stalagmites and black rock walls, but there were no insects, mosses, or lichens in sight. In the center of the hall, the floor was thick with glittering gold coins, as well as a variety of magic gems, weapon armor, and magic items.
All the witches and wizards who entered the dragon's lair were so shocked by the glorious scene in front of them that they almost stopped breathing. As noble wizards who stood proudly at the pinnacle of secular power, each of them undoubtedly amassed an astonishing amount of wealth and resources, but compared to the scene in front of them, there was still a huge disparity between heaven and earth.
Look at the golden coins that are several meters thick, enough to bury an adult strong man in it without seeing his figure......
Look at the huge magic gems buried in the piles of gold coins, which can't help but shine with magic fluorescence......
Look at the brilliant and colorful magic swords and gorgeous armor, all of which have unique shapes and exquisite styles......
Although most of the magic weapons or props in this area are impossible to equip with the size of a dragon, this does not prevent the dragon's burning heart from gathering the wealth and treasures of the world.
And at the top of this dazzling pile of gold coins and gems, a magic scepter with a strange shape and a colorful light shining all over its body was inserted diagonally, and the elemental rainbow formed by the agitation of the magic aura was clearly visible.
Even with Alice's composure and calmness, at this moment, she couldn't help but feel a little short of breath.
At this moment, Alice is so weak and old, in addition to the long hair that has turned into silver threads, even the originally smooth and smooth face and skin have become extremely dry and wrinkled at this time. After all, Alice, who is not yet 100 years old, should be at the peak of her life, but judging from her appearance, she is obviously a dying old woman who is about to end her life.
She and the drug concubine Endo stand side by side, outsiders will only treat them as a pair of old sisters, and who can know that they are separated by 5 generations of closest blood.
With the usual methods of wizards, as long as it is not the last period of life, the body and appearance can be transformed through witchcraft, so that they can always maintain themselves in the middle and middle age. And only near the end of life, due to the decay of the soul and the fading of witch power, will the old state be clearly revealed.
As for a witch of fate like Alice, the magic power in her body is surging, and her soul is also vibrant, obviously at the peak of her life, but the vitality in her body is faint like a flickering dim candle, which may be extinguished at any time.
It was precisely because of the huge deficit in her vitality that her soul was not nourished as it should be, and she began to shrink and become gloomy.
Although wizards have thousands of ways and means to draw life force, they are powerless against Alice's life force that has been devoured by fate.
Fate is always fair!
As much as you take from it, it will also take away from your life what is most precious to you......
On the last trip to the underworld, in order to divinate a mysterious item for that otherworldly existence, Alice's vitality was directly reduced by forty years. If she can't advance to the rank this time, she only has one month to live!
Therefore, when she suddenly saw the prophecy scepter that could continue to sustain her life, the turmoil in Alice's heart was not something that outsiders could easily understand.
"You all get out of here!" Alice reluctantly stood in front of the pile of gems, and said lightly without looking back, "Tell Grim to give me two more hours! If I don't come out after two hours...... Let him run for his life!"
The witches of fate who followed him nodded in unison and bowed out of the Dragon's Lair Hall. Poison Lady Endo also sighed and retreated silently.
At the entrance of the hall, the berserk witch Sophia and the ice girl Xuefu glanced at each other and chose to stand there quietly.
The only remaining young witch turned away with a worried face, and ran to pass on the leader's final command.
The poisonous woman Endo wandered around the door of the hall twice anxiously, but at this moment, the mountain trembled violently again, and countless dust and stone chips fell on the top of the road wall where they were located.
"No, I can't wait here. You two stay here, don't let anyone disturb Alice, I'll go up there and help!" After a few simple explanations, the poisonous concubine Endo left with a murderous aura.
Sophia and Chev were both resurrected by Alice after she was promoted to the Witch of Destiny and used the power of fate to resurrect them. Therefore, their souls are also firmly bound to Alice.
Alice is dead, they are dead!
Alice is promoted, and they are also rising, which is of great benefit to the improvement of strength!
Therefore, when fate is closely related, they can't help but feel impetuous.
"Xuefu, do you think Alice can be promoted?" Sophia, who was five big and three thick, couldn't help but lower her voice and asked irritably.
"Opportunity is always opportunity!" Xue Fu replied lightly: "The power of fate will only point out a glimmer of chance to escape from death, but whether you can grasp the opportunity and escape from that glimmer of opportunity still depends on your personal strength and luck." So, we can't help her with anything right now. The only thing I can do is pray for her and hope that she will have good luck......"
Immediately, a faint sigh turned back into this empty and silent space......
