Chapter 20: Arriving at the Cross Hill
According to the worldview of "Eternity", the so-called "void" is a unique place independent of the main world, the elemental world, and the divine world, and its form of existence is similar to that of the universe, but it can be reached simply by flying out of the atmosphere like the latter. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
As for the reason for the emergence of the "Void", it is not very clear in the background setting, at least there are at least four or five different theories in "The Vortex of the Roots", the most reliable of which can be roughly explained as the closed world formed by the remnants of the outer gods who are far beyond human intelligence after being betrayed by the ancient gods that people believe in today.
Since most of these outer gods are symbols of destruction and mystery, and there is a great contradiction with the ancient gods, the void creatures bred in the void can also be regarded as a disaster for all things... It is precisely because of this that when the demon species were expelled and exiled as enemies of the entire continent, the ancient powerful existence imprisoned them in the void together.
Well, that's pretty much the news about the Void, so here's the problem... What should they do with the Void Gate in front of them?
According to the setting, not to mention the little mage of lv40 like Yu Yuhan, even if he is the Abyss Lord himself, I am afraid he will not be willing to set foot in the world of the Abyss... Even if most of the outer gods were dead, how could those beings that were far beyond the cognitive limits of any living being at the moment be guessed by common sense? Perhaps, in their eyes, there is no difference between "life" and "death" itself. In case something is alarmed, the hope of a successful escape is infinitely close to 0!
However, they finally broke into the snow spider's lair with great difficulty, and they had just spent a lot of effort to defeat the projection of the Void Forerunner, and now not only did they not get any benefits, but they were also blocked by this Void Gate to continue their way to the cross hill, how could the necromancer be willing?
The big deal is death! Give it a go, maybe the bike will become a motorcycle?
When there was no way in, the necromancer did not hesitate too much, and after telling everyone to be careful, he stepped into the mysterious Void Gate first...
Unlike the previous experience at the bottom of the temple, this time the process of teleportation seemed fast and steady, as if it was really just a one-step distance, and the scenery in front of him was completely different from before.
The illusory starry sky has no connection with the stars in memory, and the dazzling brilliance constantly expands the vision of the comer, but compared to the sky, the scene in front of it seems more and more blurred, like a dream experience that makes it difficult to tell what is now supporting his body under his feetβthese steps without a fixed shape look like gathered clouds, and when they are fine, they resemble the scales of some kind of huge creature.
Skip these sections, and the huge building that looms at the end of the staircase is even more amazing!
Unlike the mage tower, which was carefully built by the archmages who were full of esoteric runes and spent a lot of money to build it, the tower in front of me gave people a sense of ghost mound because of the chaotic but hideous and terrifying exterior walls... The reliefs filled with unspeakable monsters make it impossible to tell where they came from, and many of them seem to be still wriggling!
Yu Zhihan even felt that along with the strange tower itself, it was also part of the body of some giant monster!
Although this is only a mage's speculation, the exploration has now confirmed that the Void Gate is not connected to a good place... However, for this strange tower, the rain and cold did not mean to be surprised or retreat.
Even after confirming the existence of this huge tower, he breathed a sigh of relief...
Little cutie: "Rain God, are you still going inside?" β
Rain in the cold: "Of course. β
Under the cute: "But... He looks poisonous in this place. β
Rain into the cold: "It's okay. β
The necromancer's tone was extraordinarily firm, and the plastic lady was so cute that she didn't dare to refute it... Although they were still a little skeptical about entering the Void World, watching Yu Zhihan continue to advance towards the tower without hesitation, the members of Sizhai Steaming Goose Heart followed suit.
Yu into the cold: "Take out the spell disintegration scroll that you prepared earlier." β
Cutie: "Can you use it now?" β
"No, the scroll is only valid for 3 minutes, and it is used before entering the tower. β
As part of the arrangement of the Raiders Cross Hill, Yu Ruhan had previously spent a lot of money to buy a batch of "Lilac Gaze Spell Disintegration" scrolls - this thing is actually equivalent to a one-time specific spell shield, although it can obtain the ability to obtain almost all the effects of the corresponding spell, but because each "Spell Disintegration Scroll" can only correspond to one spell, and the effect time is limited and there is a built-in CD, so it can be said to be a very unpopular product on the market.
Speaking of which, I'm afraid everyone already understands the origin of this terrifying tower that exists in the void.
- In fact, according to the route recorded in the Vortex of the Roots, the cross mound in order to reach the Mostima Abyss must pass through the snow spider cave, but if you look back at the book, there is no mention that the cross mound is located in the valley at the other end of the cave!
Referring to the high-ranking deceased "Gordon" buried here, who was originally known as the "Lone Star" and was keen on the study of the void, as well as the appearance of the mausoleum tower recorded in the book, it is now certain that the cross mound he is looking for this time is in the void!
β¦ Perhaps before the great battle that killed Gordon and the other high-ranking dead, he had foreseen the final outcome with his forbidden knowledge, and because of this, he built this passage to the void world in advance, burying everything in the terrifying world that no one would touch.
After taking the most difficult step, the next thing naturally began to decrease in difficulty for the rain and cold.
Just like the Azazile Cross Mound, which was relatively difficult to attack before, it is actually very easy for a necromancer who has the Death Teller class and knows the internal mechanisms of the mausoleum to get the most out of it within a safe limit.
It's like... Because he knew in advance that when he entered the tower, he would be attacked by the "Lilac Gaze" of the cursed statue according to the number of people entering, so in order to avoid unnecessary combat attrition, he prepared the corresponding spell disintegration scroll in advance, and because he knew how to open the staircase mechanism in advance, he no longer needed to take the risk of going to the various rooms on the first floor of the tower to challenge all kinds of terrifying void creatures and collect all kinds of clues to open the lock...
After entering the interior of the original dangerous cross hill, the rain turned cold but it seemed to return to his own garden~
