Chapter 1021: Beware of Each Other

"Pompey's Underground ...... It's so big! ”

-- Big, big, big..................

Heavy tails echoed, and the sound waves struck out intricate echoes in the empty underground space, and what appeared in front of Lin An was a ruin like a city.

No, it would not be accurate to say that it was ruins, but on the other side of the ruins, something shone brightly, like a small sun, to drive away most of the darkness from the ruins of the city.

From a distance, the light looked like a huge, high-purity white diamond, and the unsightly white light was like a long sword, straight upward, plunging into the underground space dome.

The white light didn't know where it was going, but it could be inferred that the huge amount of energy contained in it made Lin An unable to help but think of the prohibition on the ground of the imperial capital.

In fact, most of the main body of the prohibition should be underground, and only the outer layer on the ground.

But it is only a small part of the outer layer, which has already enveloped the entire city of Pompeii, and it is conceivable how large the main body of the ruins located underground is.

Lin An couldn't see the edge, but with a slight estimate in his heart, he had roughly deduced that the area of the underground ruins was about ten times that of Pompeii City.

Thinking of the complicated process of entering the underground, Lin An couldn't help but smile.

No one could have imagined that the entrance to the ruins was not in any of the palaces, but in the bell tower that everyone could see.

But he couldn't blame the emperor for tossing, Lin An didn't expect that after entering the ruins, the energy supplied to the imperial capital would be so directly exposed to the eyes of the entrants.

An icy breath blew through the ruins below.

The ruins do not resemble the ruins of a long time ago.

In Lin An's view, although a large area of low-rise buildings along the road looked like a large number of residential buildings had collapsed, they were not shattered and destroyed, just like the feeling of an extremely hard wall being swept by a huge external force and broken from it.

At the very end of the collapsed building is a huge tower, only the lower half remains.

A flat road wide enough for more than a hundred horses to charge side by side appeared in the residential complex, leading to the half-broken tower.

The tower is the heart of the city's ruins.

Judging from the traces left by this devastating attack, the power of the blow that destroyed the tower was very concentrated, Willy was at least three forbidden spell levels, ninety percent of the power was concentrated on the tower, and the little tail wind radiating only swept over the nearby buildings, causing a large area of ruins.

Just looking at the situation that the lower half of the tower was slanted into place and was about to fall, Lin An's heart seemed to have seen the shocking blow that broke the tower supporting the city in two, and the spire flew out far away.

This explains why the diamond-like energy source is not in the middle of the ruined city, but on the side of the city near the periphery.

Yes, although he couldn't see it clearly, Lin An deduced that the location of the condenser was exactly the direction in which the spire flew out.

“…… This is the remnant of Master Rice's longing and never seeing a positive purpose? ”

Lin An exhaled, and his breath condensed into a white mist after leaving the warm human body.

The temperature of the underground space was very low, like a huge dead freezer, which was very different from the temporarily dormant ruins that Lin An imagined like the Sky City, but not completely dead.

How is it different......

"This ruin is just a corpse."

After thinking for a while, Lin An could only describe his feelings in this way, and got the surprised eyes of the pentagrams.

Lin An's reaction after coming in was too calm.

Although she had been surprised, this surprise was just the normal feeling that everyone had at the first sight of this ruin.

But after that, Lin An quickly skipped the edge of the ruins and went directly to the core of the ruins, and the rest of the city was not too curious, as if there had been many similar experiences before.

Actually, Lin An is not uncurious.

She just knew that the more she knew, the greater the cost,

No matter what he was thinking, of course, the pentagram would not declare his true thoughts, Victor and Samaranch secretly exchanged a few glances, and before they could start talking, Gucci asked directly:

"Why did Master Lin say that?"

He paused and said, "This ruin looks crumbling, but in reality, neither the energy pathway nor the hub has been truly destroyed. ”

"I know."

Of course, Lin An could see it.

After tens of thousands of years of timed light relics, if there was no energy supply and a hub to maintain the basic function, they would have been unable to see the city for a long time, let alone the destruction of large areas of residential areas, but even dust on the ground is rare.

"How so? I guess it's a feeling - I feel like this ruin has no soul. ”

Lin An's words were raised, his head inadvertently tilted a little, and his focused expression looked almost serious, and he didn't take advantage of the gap to look around, only focused on Gucci's conversation.

"You know where I inherited my natural powers."

Unable to reveal the existence of the Sky City and the Earth Temple, Lin An thought about it and found an example with a high degree of recognition:

"This relic gives me the feeling that it is very similar to the fragment of the kingdom of nature."

"Although the content is very different, it ...... It all gave me the feeling that my soul had completely dissipated - even though there was still a huge amount of energy left, this relic was still just a 'corpse'. ”

This statement is very vague, almost like a standard example sentence when the god stick is fooling people.

If a mage apprentice said it, it would be regarded as crazy words every minute, but these words were said by Lin An, and the pentagram was very receptive, and they all showed thoughtful expressions.

"From the records left by our ancestors, when the founding emperor discovered this relic, he did not encounter too many obstacles in the process of gaining the approval of the center."

The legendary male protagonist's aura!

When Lin An first read "A Brief History of the Founding of the People's Republic of China - The Biography of the Great Emperor", he sighed:

easily picked up a ruin, not only made a fortune on this basis, but even relied on the residual prohibition of the ruins to build an imperial capital on the ruins, sheltering the Merlin royal family for two thousand years......

If you want to go to the test of obtaining the permission of the Sky City by yourself, you still have to use Athena to control the Sky City and obtain all kinds of conveniences, the corner of Lin An's mouth twitched.

Thinking of the city in the sky, Lin An couldn't help but think of Athena.

After Lin An returned to the Muse Continent, he called her on the first day, but received no response.

And Dolan City and Sana'a Tundra and the Imperial Capital happen to be in the triangle, far away, and Lin An is not allowed to return to Sky City first, but in her plan, Sky City is already on her schedule.

"Where are the specific locations where you have chosen to set up the circle?"

This time I entered the underground ruins, but I didn't come to visit.

If Lin An hadn't been pressed for time, he would never have agreed to go underground.

Taking the promotion of the archmage as an example, the mage who is on the verge of promotion will spend a few months on arranging the magic circle to strengthen the outer defense of the mage tower, and with the time to adjust the state, it will not take a year and a half to take it at all.

Once you fail, even if you don't fall directly, most of them are seriously injured or even fall into the realm, and there is no second chance.

Therefore, even if the pentagram is prepared for this for ten or eight years, it is a common thing.

They agreed to do it in such a short period of time, even Lin An couldn't understand it, and could only speculate that the emperor probably hinted at some of their inside information.

Of course, in reality there is nothing to prepare for the pentagram.

Except for Natalie, they have all been promoted to half-step legends for many years, and they have all been promoted to their own limits in all aspects, and they can't be promoted, not because of their own problems, but because of the secret method.

The Pentagram was placed in the square opposite the diamond in the opposite direction of the city.

"It's empty, flat, there's no interference with the energy storage, and the location is good—although the magic circle is very stable, if it's too close to the forbidden energy, it may be affected."

Lin An expressed his satisfaction, "The movement of promotion will not be small, if it causes energy fluctuations and affects it halfway, it will not be good." ”

"Don't worry." Gucci spoke suddenly.

Victor habitually explained, and said with a smile:

"There is an absolute layer of protection on the outside of the forbidden energy that cannot be broken in the way currently known, including the bombardment of the forbidden spell, let alone being affected by the fluctuations of promotion."

Natalie pursed her lips, wanting to say something but didn't say anything, "The royal family has been preparing for the promotion of the legend for many years, and only you can't think of all aspects, and there is nothing we don't prepare in advance." ”

Lin An's face was stunned.

"It seems that you have already done a thorough investigation, so I don't need to bother with it."

She flew over the square, looked around, nodded at the pentagram, and began to issue an expulsion order:

"Then can you retreat first, and I'll start setting up the magic circle."

This was said beforehand, and Gucci nodded, leaving with the other four.

……

This night on the ground was also a sleepless night for the emperor's ancestors and grandchildren.

“…… Grandfather, why would she agree to go underground? ”

The clock struck twelve times, and it had been six hours since Lin An and the others entered the ground, which basically meant that the magic circle had begun to be arranged, and the Saxons were quite puzzled by this result.

"Because she has a reason why she has to go—Master Lin's expectation for the Pentagram's successful promotion is exactly the same as ours." The Emperor replied.

"Didn't she think that after entering the ruins, her every move would be under the surveillance of the ruins, and the process of arranging the magic circle would definitely be spied on?"

The secret method that can assist the archmage to advance to the legend, Lin An will not fail to understand the importance of the secret method to the royal family, and Saxon feels that he is even willing to pay the price of offending all the legendary powerhouses for this.

He couldn't understand what kind of confidence Lin An knew this, so that she was willing to let herself step into the ruins controlled by the royal family.

Could it be that Lin An has any killer features?

However, the sturdiness of the imperial capital's prohibition has been tested for thousands of years, and it has long been proved that even if the legendary powerhouse attacks with all his might, under the presiding officer, the prohibition can last at least ten magic spells before it will be broken due to energy exhaustion.

"The strongest cities in the world are often broken from within—you name it, Master Lin can think of it, and your crown will not think of it."

The Emperor said lightly, "Don't forget, when we hold her life in the palm of our hands, she will also decide the life and death of the pentagram." ”

If Lin An refuses to enter the ruins, how can Pentagram rest assured that she will become the chief director of this promotion?
