1431 Sea Hunting
"What? Is there a teleportation magic array, you ask? β
After traveling in many places in this small and small haven, Duan Qing, who was dressed in gray magic robes, finally found Molnar's existence in a corner near the edge of the tower's gate, and the tall magician, who didn't know what he was doing, then also put down what he was doing, and instead flashed the fluorescence under his hood in the direction where Duan Qing was: "Of course there is." β
"Yes?" So Duan Qing's original draft in his heart was overturned in an instant: "Since there is, why didn't you tell us earlier?" β
"To be exact, there were." Shaking his head, Molna, who shook for a while, then reflected the yellow light under his hood on Duan Qing's body: "Before this bridge is not destroyed, the teleportation circle will naturally be able to operate normally. β
"Is it a magic array made by attaching to this Endless Bridge?" Opening his mouth, Duan Qing finally lowered the interest he had just raised: "If you want to use this teleportation array, the first thing that needs to be repaired is the magic line that was originally attached to the Endless Bridge?" Isn't this an endless loop? β
"I'm sorry to make you happy in vain." With a slight sigh of relief, the dim light projected from under the hood of the tall magician named Molna seemed to flicker along with the lights of the magic tower above: "But if it is so simple to solve the thousand-year-old dilemma I have faced, then what else do I bother to ask you to do?" β
"If Your Excellency sincerely asks us to solve this matter, it will not be bad for us." Knowing that there was actually no physical object under the other party's dim hood at this time, Duan Qing's voice also became a lot more sighing: "It's a pity that in the case of lack of manpower, no matter how capable and methodical we are, we can't put it into action." β
"You're right, after all, this is one of the means I use to restrain you." As if glancing at Duan Qing under the hood, Molnar turned around and looked towards the edge of the tower he was facing again: "If you have the strength to solve this problem in a short period of time, then why don't I confine you down?" β
"Don't be so strict, man, can you give me some way to live?" Duan Qing smacked his head helplessly: "Even if you don't consider the strength that you have cultivated for thousands of years, just by virtue of your 'extraordinary' identity, you should know some ways to break through the problem in front of you, right?" β
"I'm both a great mage and an old-fashioned system administrator."
There was a pause in the movement of his hand, and then Molnar's voice resounded as he continued to raise the spell: "If it weren't for my responsibility to repair this bridge, I wouldn't have sought any way out of here." β
"It's a lie, because you sent your doppelganger out of here a thousand years ago." It seemed that he no longer had to worry about the problem of tearing his face, and Duan Qing replied calmly in his voice: "At that time, the Bridge of Freedom should not have been damaged, right?" What did you send your doppelganger out of here for? β
ββ¦β¦ You are wrong, because the bridge at that time had not collapsed as far as it is now. Carrying Duan Qing on his back, he shook his head, and the dim light belonging to Molna also slowly moved on the sea surface in front of Duan Qing at this time, accompanied by his spell-casting action: "My projection range can only reach Wudri at most, and now that I have lost the support of the magic circuit of the Bridge of Freedom, this range has been reduced to only a small distance around the safe haven." β
"In all the time I've been waiting in this place, the collapse of the Bridge of Freedom is still spreading." Speaking of this, Molner suddenly set his eyes on the distant place covered by the storm outside the magic barrier: "I don't know what is happening in the rest of this world, the storm of the elements and the erosion of the sea have begun to become more violent, as if the whole world is going into destruction. β
"It must be because of the change in the leylines."
Touching his nose in some embarrassment, Duan Qing, who lowered his head, hid his rather embarrassed face: "Before we came to Freedom City, we had experienced many calamities in many places, and although they did not cause excessive losses, these calamities still indirectly affected the balance of the leylines and caused damage to many magical structures. β
"In that battle in the free world, the people of the Magic Empire must have done the same thing." The gray-robed mage's voice became much lowered: "The activation of the Soul Binding Ritual is probably something they have planned for a long time, even if we finally repel that terrible enemy, their purpose of collecting leyline energy will definitely have been achieved." β
"That terrible enemy...... Are you referring to Distea? β
"You're the one who fought with Distea, can't you see how threatening that person is?"
In the dim light created by the storm, Duan Qing's gaze seemed to merge with the hooded yellow light that Morna looked back at: "The Void World should be one of the worlds closest to the Inner World, you should have eradicated him earlier." β
"Life in the void is also life, and as long as it is a life derived from this world, we can't reach out and intervene." After staring at Duan Qing's face for a while, Molner finally shook his head again: "Looking at the free world now, probably only you adventurers are still within the scope of my intervention. β
"Hey, don't talk so badly, okay?" Duan Qing's face also became a little darker: "I'm miserable enough now, what else do you want me to do?" β
"Go build bridges and prove your worth." "I am also one of those who believe in equivalent exchange," said Mornar, without looking back, and what reason should I have to restrain you, as long as you can do something that amazes me?" β
"Like these."
The wind and waves seemed to have broken through the shackles of the magic enchantment in front of Molna, and sent the stones mixed with a large amount of seawater to him, and Molna, who used magic to control these stones and slowly descended to the bridge deck, then waved his hand, and gestured slightly to the stunned Duan Qing: "What are you still doing in a daze, use it as a material." β
"Hey!" Looking at the direction of the square stones that had not yet been dripped, Duan Qing took a long time before putting his chin back: "You, where did you come from?" β
"Of course it's a furnace." There seemed to be a smile in Morner's voice when he replied: "I exchanged some of the Void Energy collected in the previous battle as a condition for exchanging some materials from the furnace, and now that someone is in charge of repairing the bridge, I will naturally start to prepare." β
Following the direction that Molner then signaled, Duan Qing cast his gaze to the bottom of the sea reflected in the dark sky, and a pillar of blue light was also looming in the depths of the turbulent sea at this time, extending straight towards the invisible depths of the seabed: "What, what? The furnace was here? β
"Haven't seen a furnace facing down, have you?"
The light under the hood flickered a little more often, and Molner's voice carried a little smile: "Not only the furnace, but the entire bridge and the shelter are raised on the surface of the sea by the power of the furnace, and we use 'floating stones' on the stone pillars at the bottom of the bridge as the material to support the stability of the bridge deck, which will condense the waves and waves that are approaching, and maintain the stability of the whole bridge in a cushioning way. β
"That's what I'm going to offer you next." His voice paused for a moment, and then glanced at the stunned Duan Qing again: "Without these things, rebuilding the bridge is just a delusion." β
"Uh...... So how should we solve the origin of this stone? Blinking his eyes, Duan Qing's gaze turned to fall on the pillar of light under the inexhaustible water below: "Could it be that you say-"
"That's right, I've stressed it many times." Restarting his spell casting action, Molner also showed his tall back in front of Duan Qing again: "If you want to get something from this furnace, there is only one rule that needs to be followed: equal exchange. β
"That's your main task going forward."
**********************************
As Molnar said, the next task belonging to Duan Qing and the others changed from the survey of the bridge to a new mode and state, which also began to spread and spread with the actions of Duan Qing and Tielin and other pirates, and finally continued to evolve in a strange direction: "Come on, little cubs!" I'm going out hunting today! β
"Oooo Die, sea beasts! β
"Lao Tzu is going to kill more than Hope today! Let him wash my neck and wait! β
"Just your little body? Hahahaha! If you don't have 300 planks on deck, you won't be able to beat me in your life! β
ββ¦β¦ Hey, are they really not going to have problems? β
Looking at the sail that disappeared in front of them for the first time, Duan Qing, who was standing by the broken bridge, then heard the deep words of Xue Lingbing in his ears: "I always feel that every time I go to sea, I am so panicked." β
"The pirates have always been like this, and they are still very reliable." Unlike the worry in Xue Ling's Phantom Ice's eyes, Duan Qing turned to the side and put on a helpless smile: "Or do you think we can go out and fight monsters faster than them?" β
"It's definitely not as fast as theirs, but they've taken most of what they've hunted." Snow Spirit Phantom Ice pointed in the direction where the tower was: "All the wealth that the furnace has exchanged for has been taken by these pirates, and there is not much left of the resources left for us. β
"No way, who made us landlubbers stay here." With a big yawn, Duan Qing's face casually pointed towards the rising sun in the distance, who was arguing with Gedmayne over a fishing rod, "If you expect them to attract sea beasts in this magical enchantment, we will all starve to death here sooner or later." β
"These pirates are really bold enough to brave such a big storm to go to sea."
With some resentment, he let out a sigh of anger, and then the snow spirit phantom ice that crossed his waist also looked at the distance where the steel was leaving: "Aren't they afraid that the ship will capsize in this storm?" β
"It's not so much that the existence of the furnace stimulates their potential, but that Molnar's recognition is more worthy of their efforts." Duan Qing shook his head indifferently: "Don't look at them, they have always looked vicious, and they never seem to blink when they kill people, but under the influence of Tie Lin, this group of men on the sea still attach great importance to repaying their kindness." β
"What's more, it's not about keeping them away from this safe haven, as long as they can complete the hunt in the nearby seas." Pointing to the tall sail ahead, Duan Qing pursed his mouth with a wry smile: "With the magic navigator and storm protection enchantment that Molnar supported them, plus the skills that those pirates have honed for a long time, it is not difficult to return here in this storm." β
"That's why it's so important to have the ability to sail in this environment." The long white hair swayed slightly for a moment, and Xue Lingphantom Bing tilted his head: "Why do we only have one boat, but we don't even have the people to drive the boatβthat's right." β
"Where's that Rogoff?" As if remembering the name just now, Snow Spirit Phantom Ice turned her gaze behind her: "If you let him help us activate the Blackpalmβ"
"Don't, don't, even if you have enough trust in him, he's just a human being." Duan Qing hurriedly waved his hand: "Plus all the people in our team are dispatched, at most one sailor captive plus five laymen, do you think we have a high chance of successfully surviving, or do you have a high chance of being devoured by sea beasts?" β
"Anyway, I just hate being here all the time with nothing to do." Twisting his nose, Xue Lingphantasm showed a rare delicate expression waving his fists: "In order to solve this task as soon as possible, we have to think of a way, right?" We've got Lorna and Fura and Violet who just woke up. β
"Violet is still very weak, and she is not fit to cooperate with our actions." Duan Qing shook his head: "As for Luo Na......"
"Don't you think her attitude has become more suspicious since the last time?"
Pointing in the direction of the tower behind the two people, Duan Qing lowered his voice: "I don't know if she overheard the agreement between us and Molna, in short, I feel that the way she looks at us has become more and more strange in the past two days." β
ββ¦β¦ Could it be said? β
"Don't ask me, I don't know."
Hurriedly denied the other party's imminent question, Duan Qing turned to show a dejected look: "Really, we have such a secret in total, can we all be known by these NPCs present?" β
"You have a lot of secrets, but it's still far from the bottom of the sky." slapped Duan Qing in the back, and Xue Ling Phantom Ice then lowered her voice: "But this is indeed a good choice, because when you think about it, she is also a weaver of fate." β
"Maybe she has some unexpected way to solve the dilemma we are experiencing."
