Chapter 861: Upper Level One
With the fluctuation of spatial mana in a flash, Rhodes's figure appeared in the connection tower, the third position calibration.
As soon as the figure appeared, Rod felt that this layer was far different from the previous environment.
To Rod's surprise, there was nothing in this layer. There was no large group of corpse witches stationed here, no necromancers studying various matters, and even the turquoise ritual patterns that dotted the Soul Pavilion's interior were completely gone.
The orange-red glow filled all the spaces on this level, allowing Rhodes to observe his surroundings.
The surroundings of this floor are no longer like the two floors that Rhodes once visited, wrapped in thick tower walls, leaving only a few holes for ventilation, but there is enough space for the outside light to shine in.
The special sight that appeared in front of him made Rhodes take a closer look at the anomalies in this level.
Through his own observations, Rhodes noticed that there were no windows on the walls of this floor that he originally thought were opened, but instead were a very special transparent medium that allowed light from the outside world to shine directly.
Coming to the vicinity of the tower wall, Rhodes took a closer look at the special medium that existed on it.
Rhodes noticed that the thing that existed on the wall of the tower was more like glass that was very common in previous lives than those extremely precious stones, allowing light from the outside world to shine through.
This is not the first time Rhodes has seen the existence of glass in the game. In Rod's impression, he had seen this special substance in the academies of some alchemists in Bracada in the games of his previous life.
On the tower wall, these glasses are arranged in an oblique way, and the solid parts on the tower wall form a very special pattern.
The orange-red light, through the glass on the wall of the tower, illuminated the interior of this floor, and at the same time reflected in Rod's eyes, and the light penetrated through it, making Rod's atmosphere far different from before.
Through the glass on the wall of the tower, Rhodes could observe that the light that was dyed red in the sky and into the tower wall naturally came from this.
Seeing this scene in front of him, Rod realized that at this time, he had come to the upper area of the Soul Tower.
In Rhodes' impression, the sky above the original City of Death was shrouded in a dark canopy that would never dissipate, and when he was in it, he could not judge the approximate time of the day through the perception of the celestial phenomena.
The existence of the dark canopy, when isolating the detection of the perspective of the earth, will also block all sunlight, providing an excellent environment for the accumulation of death energy.
At this time, the scene that appeared in front of him undoubtedly made Rhodes realize that the height he was at had crossed the existence of the dark canopy and reached a higher position.
Following the direction of the rays of light, in the red sky, fiery red clouds appeared in Rod's sight, which was the real scene in the sky beyond the dark sky created by the necromancer.
Just as Rhodes was observing things in the sky, with a burst of spatial mana fluctuations, Sailly's figure appeared in the connection tower in the center of this floor.
The scene in front of him was also seen by Sailly, and after a brief moment of surprise, Sailly immediately realized the current situation.
Seeing that there were no more enemies stationed around, and that there was nothing as if there was no defense, for a while, Sailly's heart was also relieved.
Recalling the strong attack he encountered when he reached the first position calibration, Sailly didn't want that scene to happen to him again, and he was able to come to the third position calibration as in the same situation at this time, without any enemies, and Sailly naturally felt glad in his heart.
Although he did not give up the mission, the enemies he faced along the way required Sailly to be nervous and not to slacken in any way, and it was not until this time, after the surrounding environment changed significantly, that Sailly's expression was restored.
Regardless of the surrounding environment, Sailly put his eyes on the connection tower, the last position calibration, just a little relaxed spirit, this moment can't help but tense again, Sailly knows, whether this mission can be successful, depends on what happens next.
Along the way, Sailly has already realized that this mission is by no means as simple as he thought, relying on the plan he made with Brown before, maybe in the first position calibration, it has completely failed, and even lost his life because of it.
The appearance of Rhodes made this mission more uncertain, and Sailly was able to travel all the way, and finally came to this position one step away from the top.
Thinking of this, Sailly no longer looked at the last position calibration, but moved to Rhodes, who was in front of the tower wall.
Looking at Rhodes not far away, Sailly's sight naturally reflected a lot of orange-red light.
Previously, when Sailly first appeared on this floor, because he cared about whether there were enemies around, Sailly naturally didn't care about the light that existed around him, but at this time, when Sailly looked at Rod, he had to pay attention to this.
Even if he was in the distance, feeling the strong natural light, Sailly's heart would still feel a little unnatural, and after swinging his body slightly, Sailly would turn to the side facing Rod, and most of his entire body returned to the interior of the connecting tower.
The nature of the undead creature makes Sailly feel a little uncomfortable when exposed to strong natural light. This kind of discomfort will not make Sailly's strength decrease, nor will Sailly be seriously eroded like a burn, but it will make Sailly feel extremely uncomfortable in his heart, and he can't help but want to stay away.
Remembering that when he used this ability to transform his original vampire form into a human form, even in the territory of Erathia, without the dark canopy as a cover, Sailly believed that he could hide his disgust for strong natural light in his heart, and would not reveal his identity because of it.
But at this time, perhaps due to the impact of this mission, or because of something else, Sailly was unable to do this, and in the face of the not too strong sunlight, Saily had to return to the connection tower.
Looking at Rod, who was still in front of the tower wall and didn't know what he was thinking, Sailly was just about to speak out loud and remind Rhodes that it was time to continue to the top of the Soul Pavilion, but he suddenly seemed to sense something, and his expression became solemn.
