Chapter 707: Beneath the Silver Sky (I.)
A hundred feet deep in the silver sky, a humanoid portal suddenly appeared, and the magical aura that accompanied the teleportation illuminated a corner of the mine, and at the same time alarmed the undead who had wandered in the abandoned tunnels for many years. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Most of these undead were local miners, who died in this place where there was no light of day and strong negative energy due to construction accidents or other reasons, and their resentments turned into ghosts, floating in underground mines to seek the essence of the living.
During the years when Silver Sky Mining was thriving, these ghosts were prevalent. At that time, the mine owners had a lot of income, so they were willing to pay for priests to come and exorcise spirits.
Today, the SilverSky Magic Crystal Mine is almost depleted, the mining industry is struggling to make ends meet, and most of the pits have been abandoned and gradually turned into ghost territory. The few remaining miners who were still struggling to operate also had to cut their expenses, and the first thing to be cut was the cost of hiring a priest to remove the spirits, which in the eyes of the profiteers would not eradicate the ghosts by paying a priest for a large amount of money, and after a while these spirits would emerge, which was equivalent to spending money in vain. Anyway, the mine owner never went down to mine, and the ghost could not threaten him, as for the miners who were killed by the ghost...... Recruit a few new people to fill the vacant positions, which are much cheaper than hiring a soul caster.
These black-hearted miners treat the miners as consumables, and the miners are not fools, and they flee from the silver sky one after another. The mine owner had to use fraud to recruit new people in the poor countryside of the main material world, and his agents talked wildly, boasting that the silver sky was a "metropolis" in the astral world, a "fashion city", and an "exotic wonderland", and promised very attractive salary conditions for the young people in the countryside, in order to impress these young people with dreams, they did not directly say that they were recruiting miners, but called them "trainees", which sounded like international students who worked and studied part-time.
Most of the young men who have not seen much of the world are greatly moved by this pass, and if there are still people who can stay calm and question whether the other party can fulfill their promises. The profiteers will also be very generous, giving them a sum of money in person as a "settling-in fee".
With the gold coins in hand, the deal was full of sincerity. And those young people in the countryside who were deceived into getting on the thief ship would not know that this so-called settling-in allowance was their only income for the rest of their lives, and when they arrived at the Yinkong mining area, they were locked up in underground mines by the black-hearted mine owners, and they mined all day without sunlight, and the diet was also very bad, and the able-bodied young men would barely last a year before dying of overwork and malnutrition. And when they die, their bodies are thrown into abandoned mines and buried, and most of these people who die with grievances are infected by negative energy and become ghosts, making the army of the undead in the depths of the pit stronger and stronger.
Roland walked out of Sputnia, the "rabbit-eared teleporter", and immediately sensed that a large group of ghosts were approaching him under the cover of darkness.
Roland pulled out the legendary Yang Yan Sword with his backhand, activating the magic contained in the sword, and the intense brilliance was released from the blade, quickly expanding into a ball of golden light, dispelling the darkness while destroying all the ghosts within a hundred steps around.
The bright light created by the daylight technique was particularly dazzling in this underground world that did not see the light of day, and immediately alerted the Giesyankee warriors, who turned around and tracked in the direction of the light source.
"Little guy, be careful, at least two dozen Gizyankees have spotted your traces and are approaching here, once they enter the teleportation distance, they will use the 'Any Gate' to jump directly over the obstacles, and what's even more troublesome is that these guys have blessed each other with a psychic connection, as long as one person finds you, it means that everyone will arrive quickly." Eltaran's warning rang in Roland's ears.
As the mother body of the silver sky, the true god of the past, Eltaran still retains some of the power of the god after the fall, mainly reflected in the two realms of "teleportation" and "exploration", the former is concentrated in the Great Teleportation Array, and the latter is the embodiment of her god name "Eye of All Worlds". In its heyday, Eltaran was by no means in vain, and it really gave a glimpse of the countless planes of the world.
Today, her powers of discovery have waned considerably, but she can still detect the actions of any creature in the Silver Sky, and the Gisyankees are unaware of it.
"Miss Eltaran, I need your help, can you give me a detailed map of the Silversky underground mines?"
"Of course you can, but it's too late to give you a map now, I'll simply transmit the map information directly to your mind and temporarily establish sensory sharing with you, so that no matter where you want to observe the silver sky, you can immediately see it clearly through my eyes."
"Thank you very much." Roland thought for a moment, then asked her, "'Sensory sharing' seems to be a psychic ability, and you are also good at psionic abilities?" ”
"Hehe, little guy, you asked a good question, in fact, I am not only good at psychic abilities, but also one of the first patriarchs to participate in the formulation of psionic rules and the division of the six major psychic energy systems, before I became a god, I worked hard with a group of like-minded friends to develop psychic abilities, in order to break the caster's monopoly on supernatural powers, we all know that the caster's power comes from the magic web, but in this multiverse, not all planes are connected to the magic web, if you enter a demon-free world, all the spells will be in vain, street thugs can bully you casually, isn't that sad? ”
"It's sad indeed."
Roland's words are not perfunctory, he lived in a demonless world before crossing - at least at that time, the people of the earth had not yet discovered a way to connect to the magic net of the universe - so the form of civilization was completely different from the demonic Varess.
"So, people like me who hate being restricted, and who look down on those spellcasters trapped in the magic web, I and a group of like-minded partners are determined to promote psionic civilization to all planes of the multiverse, because this power from the human heart has a huge advantage over magic, that is, it is more independent, freer, and therefore more dignified - no matter whether there is a magic web in a world, as long as there are intelligent beings, there must be psychic abilities!"
Eltaran recounted the past, and his emotions became extremely excited: "The psychic ability also has a huge advantage, which is that it doesn't need any bullshit spell slots!" Why should the amount of one's own spell-casting ability be allocated by the magic net or the so-called god of magic? Is such a mage really relying on his own power to cast spells? Our manifesters are to break these constraints, how deep your cultivation is, how much spiritual energy there is in the spiritual energy pool in your body, there is no need to prepare spells in advance, as long as the total amount of spiritual energy allows, you can show your energy as much as you want, you can blast out 300 first-order abilities in one go, or you can use all these energies to show 9th-order abilities, which caster can have more than 300 spell slots, which caster can cast spells so freely? ”
