The dragon king's fanatical roar moved the black-robed great lich beside him slightly, and he was silent for a long time before responding. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Brother Mars, since you have decided to go to the Prison Gate Star, I can only take a risk with you."

"What about those people out there who are in the way?" Mars raised his chin and looked out of the porthole.

An artificial star with a radius of more than 1,000 yards stretched in front of the Naraku fleet, resembling a silver sphere, covered with thick alloy armor and an invulnerable force field enchantment, and countless magic crystal naval cannons were propped up at the armor joints, and most of the black holes pointed at the Naraku fleet, showing a silent threat.

This artifact-level magic fortress that can accommodate 10,000 people, equipped with 240 18-inch cannons, and suspended in the air, is the great floating city of "Laputa", the great legacy of the Arcane Empire in the past, and now the symbol of force of the Arcane Society on Beacon Hill.

Eight giant towers surround the Great Floating City, emitting magical aura of different colors such as red, white, cyan, orange, black, yellow, blue, and green, symbolizing the eight arcane schools of Beacon Mountain: Plasticity, Prophecy, Confusion, Spells, Necromancy, Change, Illusion, and Protection. These giant towers are all lying in the silver-gray starry sky in a strange posture parallel to the Great Floating City at the moment, and the 60 12-inch cannons arranged around the tower are aimed at the opposite Naraku fleet, and the spire is tantamount to a sharp angle of attack, and the tower base turbine steam engine is surging with magic crystal brilliance, which can erupt at any time to push these legendary astral battleships to charge towards the Naraku Sky Mother "Tartarus".

Faced with the Arcane fleet guarding the only teleportation tunnel leading to the "Prison Gate Tianyu", Naluo Kongmu and her skeleton fleet had to temporarily suspend the voyage and wait for the tense atmosphere.

"Andre brought the Great Floating City of Laputa to the Star Boundary, and there are eight Towers in the Clouds, Lighthouse Mountain has really invested a lot of money to make trouble for me, not to mention the two bastards Valentina Dawn and Carol Vlad, who are said to be recruiting troops to expand their power, can your Naraku fleet handle it?"

"Well...... black robe raised his withered palm with prominent bones and stroked his chin, "Frankly speaking, the pressure is very high, my 'Tartarus' can barely withstand the bombardment of 'Laputa', but the Bone Battleship has little chance of winning against the Tower in the Clouds, so I can only try to escort you into the Prison Gate Star, but I don't have the ability to protect you until you come back safely, there is only one chance, you have to think about whether it's worth the risk......"

Click!

There was a sudden sound of crystal shattering behind him, and the black robe and the dragon king glanced at each other, and at the same time looked back in the direction where the shattering sound came from.

Kraken stood not far behind them, the crystal ball in his hand had been crushed and his bright face was angry.

Mars was stunned for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "Ma'am, did what I just said make you unhappy?" Forgive me for my negligence, you and your Gisyankee fleet are certainly a very important force, and it is impossible to move forward without your help. ”

Kraken waved his hand away from the crystal crumbs, and said with a gloomy face, "Mars, of course I'm not angry with you, it's that something is wrong in my family. ”

"Something happened to the Giant Demon Island?" Mars raised an eyebrow.

"Unbelievable, a group of bandits broke into my mansion, killed the seeds I had carefully cultivated, and ruined my hope of becoming a god!" Kraken gritted his teeth.

"Who is so bold?" Mars asked.

"The little girl of the Yangbo family in Baigull Harbor, and a lowly sea goblin traitor, and the voters of Sindra, they took advantage of my absence to unite and break into the Coral Palace, God knows where all my useless men died!"

"Do you want to go back and take care of the housework first, and it's not too late to come back after solving the troubles."

Mars's thoughtful advice was not taken on board by Kraken, but instead stabbed her self-esteem. The legendary banshee of the North Bay closed her eyes and took a deep breath, then shook her head slightly: "The situation here is more urgent than the Sango Palace, and I can't get out of it for the time being." ”

"If that group of troublemakers finds your body...... Isn't it dangerous? ”

"Hehe, I was prepared before leaving the Coral Palace, even if those little mice found my body, I would not be able to do harm, even if I made the worst plan, if they could really threaten my body, I would be the first to sense, and it would not be too late to go back and destroy them when the time came, so as not to waste our precious time." Kraken asserted confidently.

……

Most of the corpses of the ancient gods drifting in the astral realm have turned into cold stars, the flesh and bones of the gods have evolved into fossils over the years, and the immortal divinity is sealed in the veins, and the ore has been contaminated by the accumulation of divine power, and it is possible to give birth to magic crystals.

The Demon Crystal Ore reserves in the Land of the Divine Death of the Astral Plane are the highest in the multiverse, and the difficulty of mining is also the greatest. The planet where the corpses of the gods evolve is not only rich in mineral deposits, but also breeds powerful monsters, the most terrifying of which is the gods who have inherited some of the divinity and divine power.

There are exceptions, however, to the abandoned mines that were pioneered during the Arcane Empire's era two thousand years ago.

In its heyday, the Arcane Empire sent thousands of fleets to explore the Astral Minerals, and some of the planets on the outskirts of the Fallen still retain the bases set up when the mines were first opened, and after the collapse of the Empire, these Astral Bases have also been cut off from the home planet of Vares, and some have established independent kingdoms on planets large and small, mostly ruled by powerful mage or warlock families, and some have been abandoned and reduced to a paradise for bandits.

These planets that have been "cleared" by the Arcane Empire are actually not so rich in mineral reserves, and the surface mineral deposits that are easy to mine are almost dug up, and the mineral deposits located deep in the stratum are very difficult to mine. Despite these drawbacks, it attracts a large number of locust miners who come here with the dream of getting rich overnight. Because these planets have a unique advantage: the original creatures were probably slaughtered in the Arcane Age, and most of the people who come and go here are civilized races, so they can avoid violent conflict through negotiation and trade, and the risk of mining deposits is greatly reduced.

The periphery of the Land of the Dead is also not a paradise, and some guys are difficult to deal with, such as the Kisyankees, who often attack the mines for extortion, and the local miners suffer greatly. Some of the once thriving mining areas were rapidly decayed by frequent looting by the Kisyankees. People hated and feared these notorious astral pirates, but they had no choice but to endure their exploitation against this group of bandits who were whizzing and whizzing away.
