Chapter 82: Desert Phantom City
In Songsar City, after Lucia and Jaime were in a hurry to be called away by their superiors, their flying machine, the Petrel, was delayed a little more in order to report something to their secret mentor. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
I saw that in the communication screen of the Haiyan, a vague outline first appeared, and then a 3D illusion gradually became clear, and the person talking to them was a heroic soul.
"Elder Trinity, we are near Songsha City, and we are about to return to the team. I had some situations before, and I didn't have time to report it to you. "Lucia
"Where's James?" Sanyi asked, listening to the voice as if he was laughing, but his cloak face couldn't be seen clearly.
In the Alliance, Heroic Souls can also accept disciples, but it takes extremely lucky magicians to be personally taught by the Twelve Elders. And those who are selected as disciples by the Heroic Souls are generally more advanced or above, but Lucia and Jaime were discovered by the strongest Heroic Soul Trinity when they were at the intermediate level, and they were selected as closed disciples, which can be described as the darlings of fate.
The twin mages have a good relationship with Trinity and trust each other very much. If Sany wants to keep it secret, he will secretly send these two people. However, this relationship between them is secret in the Alliance, and only the Alliance leader Gosling knows about it. Because Gosling is also a disciple of Trinity, he is considered to be the senior brother of the two, so he turns a blind eye to this. According to the regulations, only their direct superiors can mobilize mages, and the captains of all clans are at the behest of the alliance leader.
"He has placed a stealth barrier around the Petrel so that our conversation will not be overheard." Lucia knew that Elder Trinity had a bit of a trust barrier to everyone else, but she didn't know why.
"Yes, that's good." Trinity paused and said, "Now that the situation is chaotic, the more cautious the better, and you can't be careless about the earth terrans, and you can't be careless about the people of the alliance." ”
"Disciple understands." Lucia knew that Trinity loved to preach, so she listened respectfully, and waited for the Heroic Soul Master to fall completely silent before she began to narrate the whole story.
It turned out that the two of them had lied that the Petrel had hit the suspended alien beast, and in desperation, they temporarily joined Claude's team to cover up this secret operation. In fact, they went into the desert to complete the task assigned by Elder Trinity. The description of the mission is vague, and Trinity only gives them an approximate coordinates, asking them to go and see what is there, and says that the operation must be kept secret.
After the two entered the depths of the vast desert according to the coordinates, they didn't find anything at first, they tried a lot but found nothing, it seems that this is just an ordinary desert. Just as they were about to leave, a rainbow of light suddenly fell from the sky, and with the light descended on the desert, it was a mirage. This phantom city is a well-organized city, with a large area, tall and magnificent buildings, a thriving market, and a longing for the shaking of people.
Lucia and Jaime were so shocked by the sight in front of them that they opened the system interface of the Treasure Phantasm and took a video, but when they opened the file afterwards, they didn't get anything. When the Phantom City descended, the communication signal was also disturbed, so no one else saw this scene except for the two of them.
The closest city to this desert is Songsha City, and the two thought it was a mirage phenomenon at first, but if they looked closely at this phantom city, it was clearly not a modern city. It was an ancient city, and the figures walking around it seemed to be wearing ancient costumes.
Just as the two of them were stunned, a black vortex appeared in the center of the phantom city, gradually expanding to the size of the entire city, and all illusions were swept into the center of the vortex. By the time Lucia and Jaime discovered that the vortex was not a phantom, but an entity, it was too late, and the gravel in front of them was swept into the air, forming dozens of large and small pillars of wind. In the sand, the two desperately ran towards the Petrel, but Lucia was the only one who got on the plane in time, and Jaime was caught in the whirlpool.
Lucia immediately took off in the flying machine and quickly rose into the air, she looked at the black air below, and her heart was full of anxiety, trying to find a gap and dive down to save Jaime. However, the beast tide broke out.
Thousands of alien beasts poured out from the center of the black vortex and attacked in the direction of Songsha City. Although Lucia kept a certain distance in the Petrel, the signal was disrupted, and the magic force that maintained the flight was quickly lost, and it seemed that she was also sucked into the whirlpool.
Flying and levitating aliens began to attack the Petrel, and Lucia entered an emergency state of response, but the continuous tide of beasts gradually made her unable to hold on, and Jaime was still nowhere to be seen. When there was not much mana left, Lucia decided to evacuate first, and she had a lot of things to figure out first. 1
Just as she was evacuating, she met the Claude team who had come to support the human army, and the group did not expect to encounter the beast tide and fell into a bitter battle. Lucia stepped forward to help, explaining that her injuries and damage to the craft were due to the impact of the levitating alien.
When her mana was running out, she was sent by Claude to Songsha City to inform the human army. At this time, although the main city has been invaded by spiritless people and alien beasts, the Dark Dome Cloud Ghost has not yet appeared in the sky above the city. Lucia tries to ask Trinity for help, but can't get in touch. He could only rely on his own mana to simply heal the wound, and then received a communication request from Xi Yunyun. She judged that the city was about to face a fierce battle according to the situation, so she tried her best to dissuade Xi Yunyun and the others from going to Songsha City.
When Xi Yunyun arrived at Songsha City, Lucia returned to the vicinity of the coordinates, and she tried her best to search for Jaime, but she saw a shining spot in the dark desert. She repelled several flying aliens and made her way to the point of the flash, where she found that it was a gap in time and space.
Lucia knew that as long as she crossed the gap between time and space, she could go to another time and space, and wondered if Jaime had actually crossed over?
Just when he was confused, the gap between time and space gradually dimmed, and after the light disappeared, he could vaguely see a person lying on the desert. Lucia hurriedly went over to check, and the man was indeed Jaime who had fallen asleep, he had no memory of anything, and his body was as stiff as if he had been asleep for a long time, but fortunately he was unharmed.
Since no alien beasts dared to approach near the space-time gap, the Petrel paused for a while, waiting for Jaime to regain his full body consciousness and mobility before returning to Songsha City and rejoining Claude's team.
Elder Trinity pondered for a long time after listening to Lucia and Jaime's report, and then said, "This is the way things are going to be, and I know that something strange must happen, but I am not sure what it is. As soon as I heard from you, I had a preliminary idea. Do you guys want to know? ”
"Of course, we've been really curious these days." Lucia's eyes widened as she looked at Sanyi's illusion, looking worried, mainly because she was afraid that if Sanyi didn't say anything about it, then she would really be sad to death.
"What you said can explain why there is a beast tide there, but of course this is just my speculation...... You know the entropy gap, right? ”
Lucia nodded and said, "In the ancient tomb of Songsha City, I heard that there is a gap in entropy that has been opened. So she also reported the matter of the King Kong Xuan top hammer.
Three nodded a little, and said in a tone of reminiscence: "I once heard an old man talk about things on earth, and it was a long, long time ago.
Legend has it that opening all twelve entropy gaps will usher in the ultimate end times, but no one knows what the entropy gaps are. Actually, it's not an entity, it's just a special state.
The body of the dark gap of entropy is the twelve pillars that support space-time from collapsing. To put it simply, the pillars connect the origin of the universe and form a channel. When the channel is filled with positive qi, time and space can be stable. On the contrary, when the evil force invades and the pillar is blackened, it will open the gap between time and space, attracting a tide of beasts. ”
"Then what we're seeing is ......," Lucia suddenly understood.
"Well, what you see is the moment when the gap between time and space opens."
