"Damn ......" Faced with the irreversible situation of being about to be swept into that pillar of light, Gordon was in a hurry, and a flash of inspiration flashed, raising his hand and gently rubbing the back of his hand. A stream of heat flashed on the back of the hand, and the motif of the white gold seal faintly emerged.

Last time, it was this platinum seal given to him by Lord Bahamut, which interfered with the succubus queen's spells, so that Gordon and a few girls were not sent directly to the Starry Plains, but had a relatively safe start in the Endless Abyss.

This time, Gordon could only hope that the Platinum Seal would work again.

Whether it's intuition, sixth sense, or luck, all in all, Gordon got the bet right this time. Just as his and Melanis' bodies were about to be engulfed by pillars of light, the platinum seal on the back of his hand once again shone brightly, enveloping the two of them.

The last sound Gordon heard before he disappeared into the teleportation station was the unwilling roar of the artificial intelligence of the floating city.

…………

"Gordon, Gordon!"

When Ji'er heard the movement coming from the teleportation station behind her, she immediately turned back, and the long sword in her hand pulled out a cold band of light and slammed it on the closed door. She heard a cacophony of noises coming from the other side of the door, and the frantic cries of the Floating City Artificial Intelligence. But no matter how hard she tried, the sharp sword in her hand that could cut gold and iron could not destroy the thick metal gate at all, but left a series of sword marks of different shades on it.

After a while, with the strange sound of a burst of magic rapidly collapsing, all of them regained their calm. Once again, the closed door slowly rose and opened. And Ji'er found out. Inside the teleportation station, as usual, the golem guards who were frozen by the power of the arcane gem. Still standing like a puppet. The only difference is that Gordon and Melenes have disappeared.

"What's going on?" A wave of fear welled up in Ji'er's heart. She is not afraid of death or a strong enemy. But in this strange place where nothing is known. It was an extremely difficult thing for her to be alone and unknown. Ji'er even felt that even the nasty succubus who always tempted Gordon was better than being alone and helpless......

"What to do? Where do I go? Where should I go? Gordon is alright, how can I meet him as much as I can? For a while, all kinds of chaotic thoughts came to her heart, making Miss Ji'er's heart feel like a mess.

She took a deep breath and tried her best to calm her feelings: "Calm down, Ji'er. Phoenix. You've been through a lot. I've also learned a lot, and I'm no longer the aristocratic lady who grew up in a greenhouse...... If you can overcome the current difficulties, you will definitely be able to ......"

After continuous psychological hints, the lonely Miss Ji'er also calmed down. She retrieved her sword and was about to take in her surroundings before making a decision—gathering information before making a decision. She learned this from Gordon.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in her head, as if guiding her in the direction she was destined to go. Chest. The wyvern necklace that Gordon gave her and was regarded as a treasure by Ji'er also had a faint reaction at this time.

…………

"Levitation!"

Gordon let out a loud shout, the green light shining in his hand. Cast a spell on himself and Melenes at the same time.

After he recovered from the dizziness of spatial teleportation, he found that he and the succubus were actually in the air more than twenty meters above the ground, and they were falling rapidly downward. If it weren't for the usual consistent practice. With the skillful spell-casting skills brought by him, I am afraid that he will not be able to successfully cast the spell in such a sudden situation. Finally, use your body to feel the power of gravity for yourself.

After the two of them landed, Gordon glanced at Melenes, who was speechless. He felt the succubus leaning against his body and seemed to be trembling slightly. Originally, a mage was a succubus whose habits were difficult to change. He didn't forget to tempt him at such a time of crisis, but now it seems that this succubus lady had to lean close to Gordon because she was unable to stand alone.

"You ......" Gordon observed Melenes' pale face, purple lips, and his gaze downwards to her waist. The close-fitting black leather coat was oozing blood. Melenes' left hand clutched the wound on her waist, but it couldn't stop the blood from dripping and soon pooling on the ground.

"I was slashed in the teleportation station just now." Melenes smiled weakly, "After all, a low-level demon like me, who works for others, can't be ......protected by a super-protective mage robe like you, Master Mage."

Gordon hurriedly looked around, and found that where the two men were, was a huge library. Leaning against the wall, rows of huge bookshelves, all two or three stories high, are next to long ladders that can be magically driven and slide horizontally in front of each bookcase.

The entire library was so quiet that only the low moans of Miss Succubus from her injury, and the faint smell of old paper and ink wafted through the air. For a mage like Gordon, who can be isolated from the world for two or three weeks as soon as he is immersed in a sea of books, he likes this atmosphere very much.

Of course, it would be better if the succubus lady next to her was healthy and not injured.

Since the place seemed to be in no danger, and he had temporarily escaped the artificial intelligence of the floating city that had suddenly turned around, Gordon immediately set about dealing with Melenes' injuries.

His dimensional bag contained some life potions that he had previously exchanged from Order City. However, those are all brought by adventurers or travelers in the main material realm, produced by the major temples, and can only heal creatures in the main material realm. As a human, it was impossible for Gordon to be idle at that time, using the precious abyss hard currency of the soul crystal to buy potions that humans could not use, but could only heal demons.

So now, Gordon doesn't have the means to heal the demons in his hands. If those life potions from the Temple of Dawn or the Platinum Temple were poured into Melanis's stomach, not only would they not cure her injuries, but they would also kill the succubus lady.

"Well, I'm glad I learned some first aid from Venia, at least how to bandage wounds. And there are also some healing herbs she has prepared in the dimensional bag. ”

Of course, the druid's wound medicine can't be like the magic in the life potion. It has an immediate effect and allows the wound to heal in the blink of an eye. But that neutral herb. It can also have a certain effect on demons.

Gordon helped Melenes to lie down slowly, and the latter glanced at him. After a little hesitation, he slowly let go of the hand covering the wound. Gordon drew a cold iron dagger. As a mage, the dagger, like the crossbow, is a weapon that must be mastered during the apprenticeship stage. Although with Gordon's current arcane attainments, he basically no longer uses a dagger to fight the enemy in battle, but he still hasn't fallen by using the dagger's technique.

Skillfully cut the leather coat, and a dazzling white little waist appeared in front of Gordon's eyes. To be honest, for a normal man. Succubi is indeed the ultimate stunner with thousands of temptations in one. Gordon hurriedly glanced at his fair skin and smooth abdomen, and involuntarily recalled the hearty experience of sprinting with his graceful waist around his arms in the temple of Flaires.

Secretly suppressing the reverie in his heart, Gordon carefully examined Melenes' wound, and found that the wound that was gushing blood seemed to be covered with a faint blue-black.

"Those trap weapons are poisonous?"

Gordon quickly dismissed the speculation himself. Because a Grand Arcanist of Nether has his own pride, he will most likely not use the methods of thieves and assassins to quench and kill people. And if it is a biological or chemical toxin, after such a long time, I am afraid that it has already deteriorated and failed.

And. After calming down and concentrating, Gordon slightly sensed a special energy fluctuation.

"Well, it should be a spell ......" Gordon said of what caused Melenes to be bleeding so much now. A preliminary judgment was made.

The weapon that hurts the succubus should be enchanted with a necromancy that can attach negative energy. Make the wound unhealable. So Gordon tried to cast a dissolving spell on the succubus, but it didn't work. Maybe a curse-lifting magic will work. However, Gordon is not a clergyman, so he can only give up for the time being.

He took out a copy of the druid herb that Vigna had prepared for him from the dimensional pouch. Unwrapping the leaves that had been wrapped outside, he pasted the grass-scented wet mud on Melenis' wound.

The cool, moist sensation came from the wound, which was already numb to pain, and Melanises breathed a sigh of relief, and the nerves that had been holding back the pain relaxed, and she couldn't help but moan.

Although the druid herb had no special effect, it could at least slow down the rate of Melenes' blood loss and relieve some pain. After Gordon finished treating the wound, he gently helped Melenes up: "How is it, can you go?" ”

Miss Succubus nodded slightly, and whispered in the mage's ear, "Thank you, Gordon, you are the gentlest man I have ever met......"

"Thanks for the compliment, it's my pleasure." Gordon replied with a smile.

He is not a junior brother in love, although the succubus's love words are beautiful, but whoever believes it is a big fool.

Seeing Gordon's polite perfunctory smile, Melenes snorted coldly, turned her face sideways, and the slight flush on her cheeks was fleeting......

Although the succubus can still move slowly with his support, Gordon doesn't want to be a babysitter all the time. Now that the situation is unknown, he must not drag down his combat effectiveness by carrying a wounded man. Fortunately, he is a mage, and he has many means, so he can directly summon a Tamsyn Floating Disk, and he can carry Melenes forward easily.

Although it is not as good as the flying carpet of the Benratul people, it is also very convenient.

Gordon wanders around the library with Melenes. He found the library to be extraordinary, both in terms of its size and the number of books it contained. After all, the library in the Vesura-Mountains that uses magic to store book information is too scarce to be built without a Grand Arcanist of the level of the Elemental Emperor. And now the library where Gordon is located is already top-notch.

While there is more than just one library in a floating city, Gordon is certain that there must be Heteras. A private library of all the treasures of Osht.

"It's good luck, I came to a good place by accident." Gordon's mood improved a little. He remembered what had happened at the teleportation station, and he had made some new discoveries.

If the "little guy" just didn't want the senior group to get their hands on this floating city. It could have been in the witch's hut before, and it didn't tell them a word about the floating city. He didn't even tell him his true identity, and he didn't even do his best to activate the Floating City's magic crystal cannon later. Blasted through the energy barrier and helped the group successfully land.

With its identity, there are many ways to really stop Gordon and Faretan and keep this floating city.

So Gordon deduced that the other party deliberately let himself come to this floating city.

And just after Gordon and Melenes were ambushed, the other party once clamored to get his body.

If a man says to a beautiful woman, he wants to "get" her body. Everyone understands what it means. But what is the purpose of a consciousness life form that has no entity and is attached to the floating city to obtain the body of a human mage?

The most likely, perhaps, is to take Gordon's body as a container, or to perform some kind of special magic.

Gordon was sure that if it hadn't been for the interference of the Platinum Seal, the teleportation had deviated from its intended purpose. Then he may have now fallen into the cage that the "little guy" had prepared a long time ago, and he can only wait to be killed.

"If the other person wants to get my body, then my body must have something special...... At least the reason for 'being handsome' must be eliminated first......" Gordon thought to himself, laughing at himself in passing.

Ultimately. Perhaps the reason lies in some of his close ties to Nether.

Of course, Gordon didn't believe that the AI could know his biggest secret, as well as him and Asaph. Relations with Augustus.

Connect the dots between what happened before and after. Gordon probably sorted out a relatively clear ins and outs. It's just that it's useless now, one controls the whole city. The goal is to capture the enemy he has captured, and it will be extremely tricky to deal with. What's more, he managed to get the helpers he managed to pull in—including Master Jinyue and the three Dragonborn guards. And Miss Ji'er, who has become more and more experienced in combat and has become more and more reliable, is no longer around, only a wounded succubus.

In this case, Gordon could only decide to err on the side of caution.

He looked at Melenes lying on Tamsyn's float dish. The snow-white gauze on Miss Succubus's abdomen was still slowly oozing blood. The druid's herbs could not cure her, only delayed the passage of her life force. If the time drags on too long, this succubus lady may be in danger of dying.

In the abyss, if her body died, it was really dead.

Although Gordon and Melenes don't have a deep friendship, and even the most basic trust has not yet been fully established, it is impossible for him to ignore the succubus. Because even if it is only based on pure interests, Melenes is also the biggest hole card he mediated with the Succubus Queen, and he must not lose it.

The problem was that Gordon didn't know how to remove the negative spell effects from her, not even what the spell that hurt her was. No matter how erudite he was, Gordon could not have known what the unique spells invented by the Great Arcanist of Nether a century ago were.

The only hope is probably this library. Gordon hopes that in these vast books, Mereneth's spells will be recorded and how to undo them.

Gordon could only hope that during the long time he was struggling in the mountain of books, which might not even see the end, Melenes would be able to hold on.

An hour later, Gordon, who was slightly agitated, tossed a thick black book into the distance with the hand of a mage, and sighed. With his superior memory, and with the aid of various spells, Gordon felt that he was already very fast at reading books. But it took him an hour to finish flipping through the small half of a book on a shelf—again on the basis of targeted reading.

Melenes, on the other hand, was in a semi-fainting state due to excessive blood loss.

"It's really going to kill ......," Gordon felt anxious and uneasy for a long time.

At this moment, a strange lightning bolt suddenly streaked across the sky outside the window. Immediately after, there was a continuous stream of dull thunder.

"It's going to rain hard?"

But no raindrops fell in the sky. Instead, there have been even more jaw-dropping changes. The entire energy barrier that enveloped the Floating City, like a transparent glass mirror, was suddenly attacked by a hammer, and it shattered with a bang.

Countless terrifying huge cracks suddenly appeared in the sky, and then began to spread rapidly, and eventually, shattered in response.

The blue energy shield that shrouded the floating city, which made people feel extremely weird, disappeared so suddenly and quickly. And the real sky of Upper Serenzu is also presented to the eyes of Gordon, who looks into the distance through the huge windows of the library.

"Another situation happened to the Ancient Orb?" Gordon feels that this is the only reason for this change.

As soon as his thoughts came to his mind, black shadows flew past the floating city in droves, completely filling the small square inch of sky in the window.

Gordon could clearly see that these flying creatures flying to the Floating City were flying dragons, as well as a large number of five-colored dragons. The dragonborn knights on the wyverns had fanatical expressions on their faces, shouting the name of the Titanis.

"The Red Dragon's army has come to the Floating City? Looks like that guy is also interested in the legacy of the Great Arcanist of Nether. Gordon thought to himself.

If it is said that in Shangser Anzu, someone can control the ancient jewel Miphane that has the wonderful power of controlling time. Ottotton's words, then this person will not be Gordon, nor the witch Faretan, but definitely the Red Dragon Titanis. After all, he was once the owner of the Eternal Orb. If it weren't for the fact that he had overused the power of the Ten Thousand Ancient Orbs in the Battle of Seanzu, today's Qiē would not have happened.

"But the metal dragon is too weak, and it actually allows the Titanis to get the lead......"

Gordon had just expressed regret for the combat power of the golden dragon Loloados, and the reality immediately flipped upside down. In the sky, there were bursts of majestic dragon roars in the distance, followed by several golden flames running through the five-colored dragon group, and countless charred corpses fell like raindrops towards the floating city.

The five-colored dragon and its dragonborn minions who were attacked in the sky immediately turned around and headed to meet the enemy. It didn't take long for the Golden Dragon Legion, which was one step behind the Red Dragon, to rush to the sky above the Floating City, and the two sides started a battle for the first time.

"It's great that in addition to the Northumbradians, the red and golden dragons have also taken a fancy to this floating city." Gordon smiled.

If it had been, he would have felt that these intrusive guys were very annoying, and they were a big obstacle to his goal. However, now that the "little guy" has turned his face, there are more forces that threaten this floating city, which will make the Mr. AI more and more busy and difficult to take care of himself.

I like this kind of thing like profiting from chaos.

The battlefield of the two Dragonborn legions is on the other side of the Floating City, and it is far from reaching the Temple of Truth region where Gordon is located. So he was also able to look at the conflict between the two sides with a mindset of staying out of the situation. Anyway, the strength of the two sides is equal, and after fighting for so long, there is no winner or loser, and Gordon does not need to worry about whether the golden dragon Loloados will be defeated by the red dragon soon, and the director himself will not be able to complete the task assigned by Lord Bahamut.

Gordon decided to continue rummaging through the library collection to find a cure for Meleneth.

When he turned his head from the window, he saw a large, blurred white figure standing in front of him. On the other party's head, which can be vaguely distinguished, is a pair of eyes that are as black as a deep hole in the ocean.

It was unbelievable that this creature could appear without him noticing, and at such a close distance. However, Gordon didn't feel the hostility emanating from the other party, so he just raised his guard and asked, "Who are you?" ”

He asked questions in the Nether language. The unidentified creature replied in the same Nether, "Arcanist, you should learn to cherish books when you are looking through materials in the library. ”

The unidentified creature pointed to the messy pile of books on the ground.

In fact, the books in this library have undergone special durability treatment, which is very difficult to destroy. Otherwise, if it were an ordinary book, after being left for such a long time, I am afraid that it would be scattered into a pile of dust when Gordon just picked it up.

"I'm sorry because I have an urgent ......," Gordon said. The other person seemed to be the legendary librarian, so he decided it would be better to be polite. (To be continued......)
