Chapter 242: The Trial Begins
The Scarlet Moon hung high in the sky, and under the dim night sky, the Purple Clouds Tower drove smoothly above the sky.
For Augustus, the decision to descend on this plane is by no means a whim, as a neighbor of the earth plane, within the search range of the interstellar grid map, similar to this intermediate magic plane, it is really very rare, with the current hardware ability of the tower in the clouds, jumping to this adjacent plane, is already on the verge of the limit, not to mention, as early as in the test of using basalt to develop the ability of the tower in the clouds, Augustus has already conducted a day-long field investigation of this plane, with his current spiritual realm, Conducting a wide range of spiritual exploration on an intermediate magic plane is actually not very expensive, and stepping into a legend, using elemental talents, communicating with heaven and earth, and systematically combing the plane geography is a necessary skill for every legendary mage to travel to the plane.
In the process of investigating this plane, Augustus found that in terms of the special plane attributes of this intermediate magic plane, the active process of magic elements in heaven and earth and the density of their numbers are really suitable for newcomers to cultivate, and in addition, due to the fact that the magic elements are too rich, the wild magic beasts born here, whether in terms of intelligence or aggression, are far higher than most creatures on the earth plane, so as a practical ground for magic apprentices, it is indeed an excellent place to test.
Of course, as a revival plane of an intermediate magical civilization, the dominant force in this plane is still the human kingdom dominated by slavery, in fact, the so-called social development, labor emancipation, for any world, the direction and collective interests determine the defining attributes of the plane.
Even in the interstellar world dominated by the high-tech plane, there will be a totalitarian imperial system, just like the earth plane is such a low-level scientific and technological magic planet, but there is still a high-level civilization system society and capitalist countries, the extreme gap between the spirit and the power system, and the civilized society born is essentially a spiritual plane with great development potential.
Although the Earth plane is still lagging behind most of the planes in the infinite universe in terms of technology and magic, Augustus believes that in time, the planet's potential will enter the Big Bang era like a blowout.
The sky was slightly cold, as if it was approaching its destination, and the speed of the tower in the clouds gradually slowed down, and under the sky, there were undulating mountains, majestic mountain peaks towering into the clouds, and the mountains that stretched thousands of miles away stood quietly on the other side of the clouds like a vein of ice peaks in the gray mist. In the blood-red moonlight, countless whistling sounds were hoarse and sharp, looking down from the tower in the clouds, and the vague flow of the mountains and rivers under the dark night revealed a solemn and solemn atmosphere.
The Tower in the Clouds slowly came to a standstill in the sky, and Augustus roughly estimated its location and began to plan for the next step.
"So, we're supposed to be there?" Loki leaned against the huge floor-to-ceiling windows in the lounge, his amber pupils reflecting the blood-colored veins of the mountains and forests beneath the dark night sky.
Cowering in the corner, listening to the terrible roar of the beast outside the tower in the clouds, Zachary Smith's face turned a little pale, "Mr. Augustus shouldn't leave us here, right?" What the hell is this place," he winced slightly, "the red moonlight in the sky seems to be a little cold, can you feel it?" ”
Akihari's friend Marietta glanced at him in disgust, "You've been scared like this before you reach the place of trial, so it's better to give up as soon as possible, I don't think Mr. Augustus will ever mind sending you back." ”
Zacharis shrank awkwardly, and was about to say something when suddenly a pillar of white light enveloped the room.
The cold wind slanted slightly, and in the next second, Harry found that they had stepped on the soft ground, and in the darkness, the blood-colored moonlight fell down, and they looked around blankly, surrounded by a bewildered crowd.
"From here as a starting point, hike through this mountain range, I and the Tower of the Clouds will be waiting for you at the foot of the mountain at the other end of the mountain, the time flow in this plane is different from that of Earth, so you can rest assured, even if you stay in this plane for a month, it will only be half a day to return to Earth, and the trial will begin here, good luck to you." Augustus's voice came from the sky, and the purple cloud tower burst out in the sky with a burst of purple light, and in the next second, it gradually faded away.
The noise grew to Harry's ears, and whining, lamenting, shouting, all kinds of cacophony filled the cold wind.
"Stop," Hermione coughed crisply as Umbridge learned, "Stop, you guys listen to me first." ”
Unfortunately, it was so noisy that no one paid attention to Hermione at all.
"Stop!" A loud, clear voice erupted in midair.
The crowd around them instantly cooled down, froze together, and turned to look at Hermione.
I had no choice but to use magic, but I didn't expect that the magic effect of this world would be so amazing, and an ordinary loud voice would have such an effect.
"Very well," Hermione blushed slightly in embarrassment, and nodded pretending to be calm, "I know, everyone has their own ideas now, but we shouldn't be so messy, let's calm down first, and then we'll talk about it slowly." ”
Seeing that no one objected, Hermione smiled slightly, "So, I'll continue to summarize our current situation for you." Obviously, as Mr. Augustus said, this is no longer our original world. ”
Someone wanted to speak, Hermione waved her hand and said directly, "I know what you want to say, but there is no need to worry at all, what Mr. Augustus said just now is very clear, we only need to pass through the mountain in front of us, and we should be able to complete this so-called trial and return to Earth." ”
"It's light," Dean pouted, "Since this is not the earth, then the beasts living in the mountain range in front of us are naturally not known creatures, and the danger is often hidden in the unknown, we can't even figure out what these magical creatures are, and rashly pass through the mountains, what is it if we are not looking for death?" ”
Qiu sneered slightly, "Since Mr. Augustus brought us here and used this place as a place of trial for us magic apprentices, then the creatures here naturally can't be irresistible to us, not to mention, since it is a trial, there will naturally be dangers, if you just want to be safe, follow Umbridge behind her to learn her Dark Arts Defense Outline, why join the Ulius Army." ”
Hermione nodded approvingly, and many people had a look of agreement on their faces, and it was clear that most people were still more supportive of this trial. Dean's face darkened, and he didn't speak.
