Chapter 697: The Immortal City That Sleeps for a Thousand Years

"There's no way around it, it's normal for you to have questions." Fez didn't show any displeasure at the gentle question, but said patiently, "The geological situation here is very special, and the geographical location is very, very deep below the surface, I don't know if it's because of the thousands of diamond bugs above the head, or because of some other reason, in short, in this underground palace, the transmission of magic is unusually slow, and the reason why we have divided these areas is because they seem to be separated by an invisible wall, which will seriously hinder the transmission of communication magic... … The main reason why the previous people lost contact is probably because they didn't understand the location of these 'invisible walls' in the unexplored area, and after layer after layer, they will naturally lose contact with us. ”

"Is this 'invisible wall' in your mouth literal?" Gentle asked.

"It's both literal and symbolic." Fez nodded, "It's invisible to the naked eye, it's not detectable by magic, and you can only use test after test again to roughly determine where they are." ”

"I think I roughly understand what you mean......," he nodded gently, "The reason why we're going from area to area is because we want to establish a base of contact to ensure smooth communication, right?" ”

"That's right, just like we did when we landed." Fez said, rolling up the parchment under his hand, "Don't waste too much time, we should go...... The second group with the contact mage is here to set up a second magic beacon, we are here to save people, we can't let ourselves be like them, become the target of rescue! ”

"Yes, sir!"

Fez led his warriors along the stone bridge in front of him, Wen Wen stood in place, and continued to look at the huge eternal city in front of him, if in terms of scale alone, it seems that only the lost city located at the end of the soul in the dark world, where the necromantic wyvern Visaji was born, the scene in his eyes is too grandiose, like the unimaginable nightmare city in a magic movie filled in front of him, which is really very different from the "underground palace" in his head.

The soldiers who had been grouped in advance stayed in place, protecting the liaison mage in the center who came down from the ground with them, although there were not many people in the first rescue echelon, but with those liaison mages, there were at least nearly a hundred people here, and it would take a little time for so many people to pass through the narrow stone bridge in front of them.

Although it is an immortal city that has not been disturbed for thousands of years, the large area closest to the entrance has been explored, and just like the imperial city above, there is no danger here.

But that didn't make Gentle and Fez let their guard down, it felt like they were temporarily staying in a hut in the wilderness, where it was safe, but there were countless man-eating beasts outside, and it was unclear when these guys would rush into the "safe zone" beneath their feet.

"Three groups set up magic beacons in the A1 area, the others continue to advance, and the remaining battle teams advance in turn, stopping in the A5 area for a short time." Fez gave a quick order, "Action!" ”

Without a trace of superfluous sound, everyone was silent, moving forward quickly, although the contact mages in the team were not members of the Royal Knights, but they were also the best leaders in the Royal Magic Association, to be able to be selected into the first emergency war group, naturally there must be two brushes, empty gloves White Wolf This trick is not applicable in this place, no one will joke with their lives, if there is really such a guy who wants to enter the emergency war group, these warriors will not agree.

The speed of the advance was very fast, and he soon reached the A5 area where the magic teleportation sign connected to the Iron Sail Country was located, although Wen Wen was very attentive to the "invisible wall" mentioned by Fez earlier along the way, but unfortunately, even if he borrowed the power of the Sentry Eye, he still couldn't see this invisible wall that hindered the transmission of magic.

"Mildly, we're here." Fez, who was in front of him, said and suddenly stopped his steps, "I'm going to report the current situation to the head of the group, you can check around here and see if you can find anything." ”

"Well, no problem."

Taking advantage of Fez's efforts to contact the ground headquarters, Wen Wen directly approached the side of the magic teleportation marker in front of him, which was not much different from the one hidden under the palace of the Ignition Capital, and he looked at it for a long time, and he didn't find anything special.

The location of the A5 area is the end of the small town at the entrance, and the A6 area in front is a gray desolation, in the darkness in the distance, you can faintly see the black shadow of the huge buildings, in the silence around it, this scene is particularly scary, but despite this, there is no big feeling in the gentle heart, after all, if you only talk about the sense of depression and despair, whether it is the reincarnation realm with Lanaya, or the soul square when you meet Visaji, It is much more serious than the current ethereal and immortal city, and there are many winds and waves, and many things are naturally no longer as fuss as in the past.

"Let me sort out my thoughts a little bit...... Cuenca took Amber to repair the magical teleportation sign in the A5 area, but for some unknown reason, they suddenly rushed to an unexplored dangerous area. Gently muttering to himself, he raised his eyes to look at the darkness in front of him, "Before arriving in the A7 area, the staff chasing behind them had been in contact with the ground, but when they arrived in the A7 area, this connection was broken, if you count those 'invisible walls', such a long distance is indeed the limit, so from this point of view...... They shouldn't have lost contact with a monster attack. ”

Gently pinched his chin and continued his train of thought.

Why on earth did they suddenly rush into unexplored dangerous areas?

Uncle Cuenca is not the kind of reckless man who only fights hard, as the commander of the Iron Sail Fleet, he has unparalleled combat intelligence and sense of danger, coupled with his previous experience against the Torrent Demon, he can't easily make such a reckless mistake.

Wait a minute...... Torrent Demon?

When she was in the Dian Hua Capital Hotel before, did Diagara tell Uncle Cuenca something?

If I'm not mistaken, I think it's that something related to the Iron Sail Navy and the Torrent Demon was found under the Palace of the Night Guard...... I didn't care about what it was at the time, and I can't remember it clearly.

"Hey! Fez! Give me that vanity mirror of yours! ”
