Chapter 171: The Crater of Tara
After saying goodbye to the witches, we continued on our way. ★ Thinking about the 'road' in the 'text' network ★
Unlike in the past, this time we don't ride the scrawny undead horse. With the magic carpet, we are very comfortable flying from a high position. Flying through the forest, skimming over the meadows, we flew out of the boundaries of the witch's forest, and some into the cold world.
To the north of the forest, although it was cold here, there was not the slightest trace of snow on the ground, and I saw that the arid surface was constantly cracking, and green smoke was rising from the cracks in the ground. We shuttled through the smoke, cold.
These smoke are cold......
Fortunately, Mai Tian is now a witch, and she opened a small protective shield around the magic carpet, and we feel that the temperature around us is slowly rising, and finally we don't feel much cold.
On the ground below, there are strange creatures that are yellow-brown, the same color as dirt.
They look like big praying mantises...... Luckily, they don't seem to be able to fly, they're beasts with no intelligence, and I can't communicate with them. And their annoying appearance makes me want to kill it.
"Wheat fields, fly low, see what they're doing?" I said.
We flew up against the ground, and the degree slowed down, and I was surprised to see that those strange insects were staring at the small red eyeballs, lying on the cracks and greedily sucking the hot air coming out of the cracks, is this the energy they rely on to survive? Quite possibly, because there are no other than strange cracks, strange green smoke, and this strange insect...... I really don't see anything else.
"I don't like it here." Mai Tian said, "Let's leave quickly." ”
"Well, I don't like ...... either"
Because an insect was staring at me with those little eyes, I involuntarily pulled out my spear.
"Sit down!" Wheat field commanded.
Then the magic carpet "blended", accelerated the degree, and flew up in a spatial jump. In the rhythmic whirring wind in our ears, we flew quickly. But soon we saw more and more of these insects on the ground......
"Look ahead!" The sea serpent called.
Ahead, we couldn't see the horizon, and the ground was gone. Wheat Field hurriedly controlled the magic carpet to fly high, and after flying up to the clouds, we gradually saw the panorama...... What a big pit, the ground suddenly sunk vertically, and a huge pit was trapped, and countless insects were trying to crawl out of the pit......
"Here it is...... Tara Pit! Mai Tian said.
"Tara Pit?" I don't think I've heard the name before.
"Well, where the Tara Giants live." When Mai Tian said this, I remembered.
It turns out that there are giants who are tens of meters tall living here...... But why do they like to live in pits? The wheat field, like me, flew down with curiosity. The magic carpet whistled towards the edge of the pit, and at last some green plants and moss were seen on the edge.
Mosses are like rats in the plant kingdom, and their survival ability is admirable, but they can be found almost anywhere there is a little wet. It looks like the environment inside the pit must be better than the outside. But why do these insects still crawl out one by one, as if they want to crawl out of hell...... As for what the bottom of the pit looks like, because there is a layer of white mist in the pit, we don't know.
"Oops! Oops! ~~" Mai Tian suddenly screamed.
We had just flown over the edge, and it was obvious that the magic carpet was out of control and was falling fast.
"What's going on! ~~" I asked out loud.
"This is the Forbidden Zone, I can't use magic!" Mai Tian shouted anxiously.
"Go with the flow!" I shouted.
In this case, I'm afraid we can only go with the flow. Because now, even if I try to use a levitation technique, it won't work. All magic is really forbidden here...... The three of us planted down faster and faster, and the magic carpet was grabbed by the sea serpent, and the two corners of each hand were held up to make it look like a parachute, but it was obvious that with his physique, it was useless to do so.
Anyway, falling down from such a high place is a death, so it's better to let us die more simply.
With that in mind, I flew down with my head outstretched and my arms outstretched...... Strangely, the temperature here is slowly rising compared to the outside climate. As we passed through the clouds, I felt the humidity of the clouds, and after passing through the clouds, the three of us who were about to fall were all stunned......
It's another world......
Mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, and we are falling from the blue sky and white clouds......
We couldn't tell it was a big hole at all, and it was ...... The edge of the pit is not visible......
Oh my God, what kind of place have we come in?
"Huh......"
Wheat Field exclaimed.
The magic carpet suddenly moved, broke free from the sea snake's grasp, flew quickly to the side of the wheat field, and then rescued me, and finally caught the sea snake steadily.
"I can use magic again...... Odd. Wheat Field said in shock.
I looked up and there was a blue sky above, not the white clouds we had seen before.
"There's probably a shield or something, is this a wizarding world?" I analyzed.
"Possibly, the Tara tribe was made by witches after all." Wheat Field nodded.
With the magic carpet, we are not in a hurry to go down, and the wheat field controls the magic carpet to fly back and forth again, towards the sky. However, after flying to a certain height, the sea serpent's head hit an invisible wall hard, followed by my head. The wheat field reacted in time and stopped flying, which was the only way to escape.
We floated in the air and reached out and touched the top of our heads, which was like an invisible piece of glass, blocking our path......
"Well, we're going to have to stay in this strange pit for the rest of our lives...... said the sea serpent.
"There's always a way." I said.
"Well, there is always a way to go back, but for now, we can go down and have a look."
As soon as Mai Tian raised his hand, the magic carpet carried us down again......
After we flew for more than ten minutes, we finally landed on the ground. We were glad to see a small village not far ahead, surrounded by mountains and water, with smoke rising from the village and a few farmers at work in the nearby fields.
In the field nearest to us, there was an old farmer with a white head sitting on the ridge of the field, smoking a dry tobacco.
"Hello, uncle."
We walked over and greeted us in a friendly way.
The farmer glanced at us, and when he saw the wheat field with the pointed magic hat, the dry tobacco pouch in his mouth suddenly fell to the ground and became nervous.
"Witch Lord......" he quickly stood up and said respectfully.
It seems that this place has something to do with witches.
"Uncle, don't do this." Mai Tian hurriedly said: "I'm not an adult, just an ordinary tourist. ”
The farmer looked at us with some disbelief, tourist? This place has not been visited by anyone other than witches for many years. But in the kind tone of the wheat field, the farmer sat down slowly and unnaturally, and picked up the cigarette pouch that had fallen before in the mound.
"Here, smoke this." I enthusiastically ordered a cigar made in Sekiwai.
The farmer who had taken the cigar looked at us again: "Are you really tourists?" ”
"Yes, uncle, I want to ask what kind of place this is." Mai Tian asked.
"This is the kingdom of Tara......" The farmer lit his cigar with a dry tobacco pouch, and it seemed that he was no stranger to this kind of thing.
"Kingdom of Tara? And what about those Tara giants? The sea snake asked curiously.
"Kid, there are no giants here, if any...... You are. The farmer said.
No giants? How could there be no giants in the kingdom of Tara?
"How is that possible?" We all shouted in unison.
"The legends of giants are all in the past. I don't know much about that, but our ancestors were, and we have been giants for generations. It was a long, long time ago...... "The farmer muttered," said the farmer, "by the way, if you go to the royal city and look at the history books of the palace, you should be able to figure out this question." ”
"Well, then may I ask uncle, how to get to Wangcheng?" Mai Tian asked.
"Just to the east, more than 2,000 miles ......"
More than 2,000 miles, from the outside, this pit is not enough for 2,000 miles.
Wheat Field suddenly leaned down and waved her wand carefully, and an insect on the ground was lifted up by her suspension technique and suspended in midair.
"Look, what is this??" Mai Tian said.
When I looked closely at the sea snake, the insect looked like a praying mantis and had small red eyes.
"Oh, it's a smoke mantis." The farmer said.
Smoke Mantis ???
This is clearly the kind of giant insect we see outside!! ~Why is it so small???
Could it be that they were so small in the first place, and they only became so big when they arrived in the outside world?
Or is it that after entering a strange pit and coming to this strange world, our bodies are slowly getting bigger?
"Looks like we're going to go to the royal city to find out." Wheat Field sighed.
The answer is that we must look for the drop, and the royal city must go to the drop, otherwise how can we get out? After saying goodbye to my uncle, we flew east on the flying carpet again. The witch's magic carpet flies fast......
"Strange, how do I feel so much faster." The sea snake asked.
"Well, I feel it too." "This kind of jumping teleportation flight is teleported according to a certain spatial proportion, and I feel that the space density here is much higher than that of the outside world......
"What do you mean?" The sea snake and I don't understand.
"It's a world made of magic, and the space here is different from the outside." Mai Tian said thoughtfully.
Not far ahead, a magnificent city has appeared, and all the secrets here can probably be answered there......
