The relentless wind and snow roared loudly and rushed wildly.

Under the influence of the rich magic element, even if the inland sea area is located in the tropics, it cannot escape the invasion of cold winds.

Abnormal weather is just the most normal situation here, and if one day, the climate here suddenly becomes normal, it is the most abnormal.

The cold wind traveled through the water columns, and hundreds of thick water columns connected the sky and the sea, and the sea rushed up from them, forming another ocean in the sky.

The wind blew and carried away the water column and the temperature of the ocean, but because the sun shone vertically on the earth, there was no ice in between.

Suddenly, a black shadow fell on the ground!

The four-winged, four-clawed horned eagle swept across the sky, its huge wings stretched out, and it soared into the clouds on the wind high in the sky, but before that, the owl's eyes swept to the ground, and the arcanist on the floating island looked up to confirm the identity of the giant eagle.

An arcane tele melted into the wind with his voice, drifted with the cold wind, and came to the peak of a towering mountain.

From the roots of the high mountains, a vein spreads in all directions, and the mountains that spread across the inland sea area on the side of the small Mendez continent originate from here.

Several men in armor stood halfway up the mountainside, guarding one of the arcanists in the ranks, only to see that mage raised his hand, spread his five fingers, let the howling wind pass through his fingers, and closed his eyes slightly, listening carefully to the news from afar.

Then, the mage nodded to the others and said indifferently: "Let's go, that monster has already gone to hunt, and it won't come back in two or three hours, and two or three hours is enough for us to find that 'entrance'." ”

Most of the materials on the 'secret research' used to be destroyed, but some of the current Grand Arcanists came from that time, and the current Speaker of the Arcane Council is the Deputy Speaker of that era.

Although they may not know exactly what those secret bases were studying at that time, they all know where they are.

At that time, the arcane level of the Arcane Empire was already quite developed, whether it was smelting metals or making composite materials, it had reached a certain height, and even geological changes would make it difficult to destroy these hidden bases.

Although more than 800 years have passed, the Arcane Council believes that even after that much time, the things that have been studied in the hidden base should not be obsolete, for example, if the 'Taling' had not brought his calculations to the Eye of All-Knowing, they might not have been able to do what they are now......

It may not be that the closer you get to the hidden bases in the Inland Sea, the more terrifying the things you study, but as long as you find all those bases, you will definitely gain a lot.

It is said that more than 800 years ago, there were endless mountains and countless mountains, but now, only this one remains.

The Arcanist lamented in his heart the horror of the Great War, and to this day, the strength of those gods who lost the kingdom of God, lost the support of their army, and lost almost everything is still engraved in the hearts of the Great Arcanists, leaving a deep scar on it, always reminding them that it is a shame.

Even if you calculate everything, you still can't compare to the power of those gods!

The Arcanist held a mirror with a dense array of runes engraved on its back, and the mirror appeared thirty feet underground.

Of course, they can't find the existence of those hidden bases just by looking through the land, what they want to find is the spell mark hidden under the ground, and only by finding the spell mark can they find the location of the hidden base.

The team walked around the mountainside, which was too high and too big to be searched in two or three hours.

But all of them have a lot of patience, as they have been doing this work for days, since a few days after the return of the Empire to this world, they have been doing this work, always looking for the spell marks left behind back in those years.

The Spell Mark has the maintenance of the Hidden Base, and as long as the Hidden Base is not completely damaged, then the Spell Mark will always be there, if the Hidden Base they are looking for is completely destroyed...... Then they can only be counted as unlucky.

And they couldn't stay here for two or three hours, after all, they couldn't be sure when the monster would return, and two or three hours was just their own speculation.

The monster is one of the overlords of the Inland Sea region, and the Empire does not want to clash with them if it is not necessary.

And the mountain at their feet, as well as the surrounding mountains, are its territory.

It is so powerful that even the Empire does not dare to say that it can be defeated casually, and even if a few Grand Arcanists unite to cast a legendary spell, it will be difficult to kill it.

Taking out his pocket watch and glancing at the time, the Arcanist put down the mirror in his hand and sighed softly, "Let's go down the mountain......"

That's the end of today's mission, the monster only needs to go out to hunt once a day, and they only have one to two hours a day to search, in order to avoid the monster, they must retreat in advance, otherwise, they may be killed by the monster.

Even, that monster will clash with the empire because they have found the empire...... It's not something that can't happen.

But at this moment, the 'sky' suddenly darkened!

The faces of the entire team changed, and they suddenly looked up with a shocked expression.

Four giant wings obscured the sky and blocked out the light, and the huge monster circled in the air, finally landing on the top of the mountain.

Seeing this scene, the Arcanist, who had always been pale, let go of his clenched fists and exhaled, and at this time, he could still hear the happy relief of several people beside him.

Also, how could that monster notice these 'little minions', as long as they don't find the spell mark and open the secret base, that monster shouldn't notice them.

Of course, this does not mean that they can run wild here, just like on this high mountain, except for the falcon that has been approved by the monster, no creature can move here, not even 'food' such as antelopes.

That monster is so domineering and ferocious, if it knows that they have infiltrated its territory, then they will definitely die!

No floating city wants to collide head-on with such a hegemon-level monster, even if the current empire collides with them head-on, although it can defeat them, it is difficult to guarantee that they will be killed completely, so even the empire is unwilling to provoke them.

Unlike the previous floating cities, the outer cities of the floating cities that have entered the world of Assatom now carry not a group of 'monsters', but real human beings.

Even if they don't think that ordinary humans are of any use to them, but ......

The Arcanist looked left and right, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

Even arcanists can't do everything alone, they need slaves, they need shields, they need low-level labor, so take into account the emotions of ordinary people.

Ordinary people can also train into warriors and fight for their empire in the sea of stars!

The Arcanist was about to put away the mirror, however, the runes on the back of the mirror suddenly lit up, and the magic quickly sketched on the mirror's surface, condensing into a 'mark'.

He stared blankly at the mirror in his hand, and after a moment, he suddenly came back to his senses.

"No ......"

The imprint that appeared on the mirror disappeared, and the ground beneath their feet shook suddenly, and surging magic poured out of the ground.

Hmmm-

The eagle's chirp suddenly sounded, and the arcanist and the others looked up sharply, and looked at each other behind them.

As soon as the arcanist gritted his teeth, Huo Ran roared: "Go, rush in!"

Only then will they be able to live!

The figures of the Arcanists vanished in place under the shadow of a giant claw, and moments later, their angry roars pierced through the sea of clouds and spread across the entire Inland Sea region.
