Inside San Diego, the Magic Fair is bustling with activity, but outside the city it's sparsely populated. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoSince the teleportation arrays have been established in major towns, most people will use teleportation arrays to transfer between towns, especially in large cities like San Diego, where there are few ordinary residents, and most of the caravans enter through the city gates.

At this time, near a hill outside the city gate, a female cadet was waiting for something in front of an inaccessible clearing. There was a noise nearby, and the female student was attracted by the sound and looked in that direction. At this moment, the figure of a warrior appeared from the bushes behind her, she hurriedly turned around, saw the face of the samurai clearly, reached out and patted her full chest hard, and said in a coquettish voice, "Oscar, you scared me to death!

"It's your own combat experience that's terrible, Ashley. If I were an enemy, now you are dead. Oscar replied indifferently, "Also, your seduction is useless to me, so you don't have to waste your efforts." ”

Ashley put away her pretentious gesture and asked straight to the point, "What are you asking me to come out for, I still have my own business." ”

Oscar didn't seem to like talking to Ashley either, so he threw a contract directly to her, "This contract is invalid, how is your recent surveillance of the target?"

Ashley took the contract and looked at it, and was surprised to find that the light on it had disappeared, this contract was signed between her and Darko, "The target went to the Bounty Hall a few days ago to select tasks, and took on a few missions from the Warcraft Mountain Range. It hasn't happened since then, and judging from the fact that the contract is invalid, it must have been dead. Ashley then seemed to remember something, her body trembled, and she muttered to herself, "Vitamin Guild, it's so efficient!"

Oscar's muscles trembled imperceptibly, and he said with an unnatural expression, "I also think he should have died in the Warcraft Mountain Range, but for some reason, it shows on the life spectrum that the deal has not yet been concluded." ”

"The deal didn't close?" Ashley wondered, "If he wasn't killed by the Vitamin Guild but was eaten by the Monster, then it should be the deal that was lifted, not the deal that didn't happen." Why is this happening?"

"I don't know yet. Oscar shook his head, "However, the Vitamin Guild has a more advanced definition of the law for the life and death of the mission target, which is more accurate than ordinary contracts. Since it has not been achieved, it means that the Vitamin Guild believes that the target is not dead, so you need to continue to pay attention to the Academy of Magic, and if the target appears again, you must send back the communication as soon as possible. Nothing else, that's it. ”

"Oh, got it. Ashley muttered, heading back in the direction of the Academy, "I thought I was going to bring something good to me, just to send such a broken contract, telling me that the contract was invalid, really." If I don't have anything important, how good it would be to communicate with magic, and I have to run so far myself......" Ashley's self-talk came to an abrupt halt, and she looked down in disbelief, seeing that there was an extra half of the tip of the sword in her chest.

Oscar's voice came from behind, "I'm here this time to kill you." Now that the contract you signed is no longer valid, you are of little use. The sad woman has never been able to figure out where she is. ”

Oscar pulled out his heavy sword and pulled out a scroll of disintegration and threw it at Ashley. Ashley was not yet dead, but she was already so badly injured that she seemed to want to say something but blood was spilling from her mouth. She could only shake her body hard, twist her waist that was gradually disintegrated, and even wanted to pull the clothes on her chest to charm Oscar. But all this is in vain after all, Oscar just looks calmly from the sidelines, as if what is in front of him is not a moving body, but a prey.

A quarter of an hour later, Ashley's entire being was broken down into the purest elements, and all the physical traits that had enabled her to perform her spells of charm were reduced to the purest elements and merged into the plane.

Oscar looked around again, making sure that no one had detected what was happening here. He saw only three griffons flying in the distance in the sky, and then they burrowed into the bushes and disappeared.

There were three griffons flying in the sky, and only one of them had a person sitting on it, and this person was Darko who had gone from the Dark Temple to the Space Temple. From St. Owen to St. Croix, the distance is more than 7,000 kilometers in a straight line, passing through mountains, forests, rivers and large areas of uninhabited land. Darko is not in a hurry, it seems that he is used to sudden changes, and he has not many choices to make due to his low strength, so he is open-minded.

Sitting on the griffin, Darko was closing his eyes and thinking back to what he saw when he received his real name. Those lines of law only appeared once when the soul merged, and no matter how much Darko opened the pupil of cause and effect to observe, he could no longer see those lines. And Darko had a feeling that if he thought back to some of the details of the thread of the law at that time, it would directly help him comprehend the level of power.

When Darko was sure that he could no longer recall any details, he slowly opened his eyes and faced directly with the cold wind howling high in the sky. Darko remembered that the last time he sat on a griffin, he was sitting with his master. Thinking of her master, her mood of having to flee because she was being hunted down also became a little brighter. But then he remembered that his master had said that he did not want to see him again, and he became gloomy again.

"I haven't seen him for so many days, will the master miss me? If he knows that I am being hunted down by the Vitamin Guild, will the master be worried? Do you want to go and see the master? Maybe the griffon will not be discovered by the Vitamin Guild. Thinking of this, Darko immediately shook his head and denied his crazy idea. Archbishop Narich told him that he couldn't go to St. Croix through the teleportation array, because those city-to-city teleportation arrays were watched by the eyes and ears of the Vitamin Guild, and it was easy to expose himself, so he could only ride a griffon to the interdimensional portal of the Space Church. If he went to see Phyllis, then I am afraid that it would be easier to expose himself, and it was better not to take that risk.

Before you know it, the griffon has passed by in the distance from San Diego. Darko looked back at the Academy of Magic in the distance, and his heart couldn't help but feel mixed feelings, where he had spent nearly a year and paid countless sweats. And before, even if he knew that he couldn't return to the academy, he asked Kevin to hand over the task in order not to break the contract.

The experiences in the academy constitute the most important period of Daktronics. In the past year, it was the year he learned the inscription, the year he systematically learned the knowledge of magic, and the year when he became closer to his master. When I think back to the past year, Daktronics feels like time has passed.

When he carefully counted the time, Darko realized that today was the first anniversary of his first meeting with his master in Scott. He was just a small skeleton at the time, but now he has grown into a junior magician, and Phyllis is indispensable for pouring into him.

It was dark, and after a long time, it was lit up again, and what didn't change was that Darko flew on the griffin. Light and darkness alternate two cycles, the griffons are already exhausted to death, even if they take turns to carry it, they can't withstand such a fatigue flight, and when the third griffon is also foaming at the mouth and dying, Darko finally arrives at St. Croix.

It is said that in the early days of magical civilization, there was no space magic array, and later some magicians gradually discovered that relying on the instantaneous release of magic power could disrupt the laws of space and teleport themselves to uncertain locations, which is the formation of instantaneous movement magic. Teleportation provides a guarantee for the mage to save his life, but the uncertainty of where he moves also limits his use. It wasn't until 5,000 years ago that a Holy Magister solved the problem of point-to-point teleportation by constructing the data of spatial coordinates into a magic array through alchemy. And that Holy Magister is the current god of space, Chloe.

St. Croix is a city named after the god of space, and is also home to the main temple of space. The city is majestic, but the population settled in it is not proportional to the size of the city, and it is more of a floating population. The large space is empty in the city, making people feel that the space church is worthy of its name.

After St. Croix was canonized, he used his priesthood advantage to establish teleportation channels to five secondary planes. But he did not take these planes as his own, but opened the spatial passage, regardless of identity, to all people, anyone can pass at will, and the price of passage is only to pay a teleportation fee.

This not only dissolves the coveting of other forces for the dimensional portal of the Space Church, but also earns a large amount of tolls. The toll charged by the Space Church was nearly three times higher than the cost of teleportation, but because the space teleportation technology was monopolized by the Space Church at that time, others had nothing to complain about, and gradually each church established branches in those secondary planes.

Of the five planes, Mercury and Armas are fourth-level planes, Saturnus is fifth-level, Jupiter is seventh-level, and Venus is eighth-level plane. Some people believe that the Space Church is not limited to these five planes, and that they have at least one or two resource-rich planes that are being developed on their own, but this is just a rumor and has not been confirmed.

Darko paid the toll of one hundred and fifty gold coins and walked into the main hall of the Space Temple, and then he saw a huge space. The floor and ceiling of the hall are paved with white stone slabs one meter square, and the stone slabs on the ground are horizontal, and the walls and ceilings are not horizontal, but at an angle, which makes the single-color walls look very three-dimensional.

When Darko came back from his surprise and began to look at the boundaries of this space, he found that the space in this hall was so large that it was difficult to distinguish the distance between the wall and himself, and roughly estimated that the space here was more than ten times larger than the space temple seen outside, and this space was only a main hall!

However, Darko clearly knows what level of space equipment can carry lifeforms. Originally, in the prophecy pope's chest, a space wrist wheel with a storage space of seventy cubic meters could be placed together with the heart of death and the tenth-level plane teleportation scroll, just because it could carry the strategic value of the living body. However, here, tens of thousands of cubic meters of interdimensional space are treated as the main hall for people to pass through, what a magnificent handiwork!

In this way, the god of space shows off his strength. Darko thought of that period of history, the establishment of portals in various secondary planes, allowing the gods of space to collect a large amount of teleportation fees, making the space church the richest church. But even without these portals, relying only on the spatial god's own strength to develop, it would actually be the same result. History, though it may seem accidental, is in some ways inevitable.

The huge main hall itself is a place for transportation, and in the center of the main hall is a teleportation array leading to various large towns in the plane, and the function of this main hall is equivalent to the central square of other major towns. The main hall is surrounded by five passages, each of which is a portal to several other secondary planes. Archbishop Narich just asked Darko to find a secondary plane to hide from the powerhouses of the Vitamin Guild, and did not give specific advice on which plane to go to, so Darko got tangled up here.

If you want to close the level gap between the killer and yourself, of course, you must go to the lowest-level secondary plane, that is, the fourth-level plane like Armas and Mercury. But both fourth-level planes, Armas and Mercury have completely different histories.

The Armas Plane was discovered very early, and Chloe had built a portal to Armas before she became a god, and after repeated experimentation, it was discovered that each plane's power limit was different. At that time, due to the death of too many strong people who were above the upper limit of the plane's strength before, people's fear of the other-dimensional plane was far greater than curiosity. Therefore, those who dare to explore the Armas plane are the bravest and most powerful of the high-level professionals, and they gradually take root in the Armas plane and adapt to the environment there. It wasn't until the major churches at that time discovered the abundant resources of the Alternate Plane and wanted to enclose the land, that the first aborigines in the past had already established organizations belonging to their own plane.

The Church of the Gods believed that the discovered Alien Planes were their treasure troves of resources, while the Aborigines believed that the Armas Plane was their home, and war broke out. The aborigines relied on a united organization and an understanding of the laws of the plane to form a formidable fighting force. In contrast, the major churches are fighting their own battles, and they have to be wary of other churches competing with them for resources. As a result, the aborigines defeated the armies sent by the major churches again and again, and finally forced the major churches to the negotiating table and signed the Armas Covenant.

The general content of the contract has three points, one is that the gods are allowed to preach in Amas, but in order to prevent the migration and infiltration of the Church of the Gods, outsiders are not allowed to upgrade their level in the Armas plane; second, the resources of the two planes can only be exchanged in the form of transactions, and smuggling and smuggling are not allowed; and the third is to ensure the smooth implementation of one or two points, the population of Amesya must sign a contract when entering Amas.

In this way, the Armas Plane became a relatively closed system, and the population within it was mostly indigenous and merchants of the Amesian plane. Because of this, the order in the plane is very harmonious, even safer than the plane of Ameiya.

On the other hand, there is the Mercury plane. Mercury is very rich in mineral resources, but also the climate is extremely harsh, not only the temperature difference between day and night is extremely large, water resources are seriously scarce, and the monsters and magic plants are also very ferocious. It is a plane that was discovered before the Magical Revolution, and was purchased by the Space Church from the discoverer as soon as it was discovered, and a plane portal was established. At that time, the sixteen churches were in a situation where they were competing with each other, making the Mercury plane a huge battlefield, and most of the laborers sent to the mining were prisoners and refugees, which made the plane even more chaotic.

If the Armas plane is the epitome of order and prosperity, then the Mercury plane is absolute chaos and madness. If you were given a choice between the two, almost all of them would choose Amas.

For Darko, there is no danger in the Armas plane, the entire plane exists in a huge contract code, but if you go to the same place, you can't upgrade the level, which is equivalent to wasting a year's time. The Mercury plane, on the other hand, is unusually treacherous, a plane of danger and challenge, filled with adventurers who try their luck, vicious prisoners, and lawless mobs. But in it, Darko can increase his level and strength, and if he has enough resources, he may even be promoted to the top level within a year, and then return to Amesia. Without much thought, Darko stepped into the passage of the Mercury plane.

The passage wasn't long, and at the end was a side hall with a huge portal in the center, but Darko stopped suddenly. A slender figure stood alone, in stark contrast to the deep portal behind her. It was Phyllis, she seemed to be waiting for something.

……

"Darko, you need to level up quickly, and when you reach a higher level, you can protect me. ”

……

Darko knew in an instant why Phyllis was waiting at Mercury's portal. If you can't wait for him on Mercury's side, it means that he has gone to the Armas plane. Since you don't want to protect it, it's okay not to see it.

Phyllis raised her head and stared at Darko tightly, her lips and teeth moving slightly, but she didn't make any sound after all. So Darko knew that no matter how much people talked, there were times when they were silent.

"Are you...... Bright ...... Phyllis bit her lower lip tightly, as if she couldn't face reality, as if she was afraid of losing something.

When the truth was learned by the master, Darko was calm in his heart, as if he had helped him make up his mind.

"No, master, my name is ......" Darko slowly knelt down on one knee in front of Phyllis, just as the two of them had seen each other for the first time in Scottic City, "Darko Bicamekstint Nyke Remens. ”

……

"Well, whoever tells me my real name in the future, I will marry him! That way he will not dare to make me angry! If he dares to provoke me, I will enslave him to be my servant by indenture, and then make him my undead legion!"

……

Darko got up and walked to the portal in front of him without hesitation, passing by without seeing two points of crystal dripping from Phyllis's cheeks.
