459 Into the mountains

The summit of Mount Waisula is the bottom of the Floating City. The power system of the floating city with the Miser energy core as the core was built here. In addition, based on the consideration of source energy supply, the great arcanists of the Netherduran Empire who owned the Floating City often built the most important and complex Arcane Reality Room at the bottom of the Floating City.

The Mithic Core is the source of all energy in the Floating City. The shorter the line for transmitting source energy from the Miser energy core to the real yàn chamber, the more convenient it is to build and manage, and the less energy is lost during conduction.

This is the most basic truth in magical engineering. Even a giant floating city like Mount Waisula is no exception.

In addition to its size, this was built by the Elemental Emperor Asaph. The floating city built by Augustus has another special feature.

That amazing and brilliant majesty has copied the structure of the entire multiverse to this floating city.

Located in the Red Zone at the top of the current Mount Waisula, there is a huge domed building called "World", which was built by the Elemental Emperor in order to simulate the evolution of the entire main material realm. Around the crosshairs centered on the "world", there are four elemental towers, representing the four elemental realms of wind, fire, water, and earth in the multiverse.

As the main source of the four basic substances that make up the entire universe, the four elemental realms are the key planes that support the entire multiverse.

The main material realm, which is the largest and most stable, together with the four elemental realms, forms the backbone of the tree-like structure of the multiverse.

At the foot of this great tree is the Endless Abyss, and above it is the Astral Heaven. A variety of other planes as well as subplanes. Like leaves and branches, they are scattered around the main trunk.

This is the cosmic structure of this crystal wall system, and the crystal wall system where Gordon's home earth is located. The universe, which is made up of planets as the basic unit, is very different.

However, although the Elemental Emperor is great, and the Netherduran Magic Empire is great, it is not as great as the world itself. Although this floating city strives to reproduce the structure of the entire multiverse, the limited material conditions cannot completely restore the almost endless universe after all.

Therefore, in addition to the most critical main material realm and the four major elemental realms, there are only some others that are more famous. The plane that has been explored and understood enough by the Arcanists of the Magic Empire has been recreated in the Floating City.

If the technology and craftsmanship of the Magic Empire of Netherduran were good enough, those buildings would still be in operation after thousands of years. I'm afraid that every time Gordon walks into a building in the mountains, he will encounter "surprises".

The god of knowledge, who never seemed to be able to reveal information clearly, had more than once hinted to Gordon that he wanted to solve the mystery of his body. You have to go to the top of the mountain. In the building called "The World".

And to enter the "world", you must first pass through the Guò Elemental Tower.

In addition, to solve the pollution problem of the White River, even the huge Mithic Energy Core that drives this floating city will have to be obtained through the Guò Elemental Tower.

Fortunately, since the layout of the building is circular rather than linear, Gordon only needs to pass through one of the four elemental towers in Guò.

He had two elemental keys in his hands, water and fire. It's sufficient, and you don't need all four elemental keys.

Before you reach your final destination, though. Gordon still had a lot of obstacles to overcome—like the mysterious red ghost.

Absurd rumors are not the same as unfounded. Although there is no definite evidence of the existence of the red ghost, if it is ignored because of this, it is not the work of a wise man.

"Anyway, at least prepare some more supplies to deal with the undead creatures." Gordon had a plan in mind.

Having received some useful information from Miss Centaur again, Gordon felt that the turmoil outside about killing the gray dwarves was almost over. He took out two disguise scrolls from his dimensional pouch, changed the faces of himself and Sigrid, and left the brothel through the side door.

At this time, on the street of the adventurer's camp, there are gray dwarves in groups of threes and twos, searching everywhere, looking for the mage murderer who killed his family. The brothel was the property of the thieves' guild, and the gray dwarves didn't dare to offend, but the other small shops that didn't have a backstage were out of luck.

According to the information provided by Miss Centaur, the gray dwarf killed by Gordon belonged to a mercenary group called "Axe and Iron Fist". It was a mercenary group of about two hundred people, all composed of gray dwarves. This mercenary group is not only numerous, but also powerful. Dwarves are almost all born warriors, so there are many excellent dwarven warriors in the Sharp Axe and Iron Fist mercenary group. In addition, there are also special classes of gray dwarves such as "rock sentinels", which have the specialties of wanderers and archers, priests who believe in Radug, the patron saint of gray dwarves, and rune mages unique to dwarves.

All in all, Axe and Iron Fist is a powerful mercenary group with a large number of people, extraordinary strength, and a reasonable class match. Gordon was glad that he had dodged in time and hadn't confronted these boulder skulls head-on.

Whether or not we can win will not be discussed for the time being, and if we delay the business for this reason, it will be worth the loss.

After a period of searching, the gray dwarves gradually dispersed. The adventurer's camp has limited capacity, and this large mercenary group is not stationed, but camps in the woods outside.

After the gray dwarves left, Gordon took the time to buy the necessary supplies in the camp and then continued his journey.

Soon, he and Sigrid were at the foot of the mountain.

Mount Waisula is not a naturally occurring mountain, so there is no over-topography such as gradually undulating hills and slopes at the foot of the mountain. In the plain wetland area of dense forests and waterways, the horizon suddenly folds upward, forming a towering mountain peak as far as the eye can see.

The naturally formed earth will definitely not be as smooth as artificially polished, so when the Elemental Emperor's floating city is upside down like a giant bowl, it is impossible to combine with the earth seamlessly.

Although this mountain that has fallen from the sky has almost become one with the earth after thousands of years, there are still many gaps and gaps in between.

Of course, although Gordon calls them crevices, these are extremely large caves for human size. All Gordon had to do now was choose one of these caves, burrow into Mount Waisula, and head to the top.

Referring to the structure of the floating city from the god of knowledge, and the hastily drawn topographical map of Miss Centaur, Gordon quickly finalized the route into the mountain.

The two of them entered the Vesurayama Mountains smoothly.

Although I met some adventurers on the way, nothing happened. Although he and Sigrid are only two people, adventurers with a little discernment can see that this duo is not easy to deal with.

With the help of illumination, Gordon walked all the way, observing his surroundings by the way.

In the beginning, the surrounding area was like a naturally formed cave, nothing special. However, as we gradually penetrate deeper into the interior of the mountain, the traces of artificial carving become heavier and heavier. The granite-paved ceilings, walls carved with reliefs in the style of the Old Magic Empire, and the ubiquitous Nesser inscriptions remind all adventurers that this was once part of the glorious magical civilization of Nesserland.

Yaling is a relative of the elves, and the Magic Empire of Netherduran is the destroyer of the Japanese Elf Empire, so Sigrid is not too interested in the relics left by the Nethers, and even a little repulsive.

As for Gordon, although he was very interested in the ruins with a heavy historical atmosphere around him, at this time, there were other things that attracted his energy.

In addition to keeping an eye out for hidden magic traps on the road that were made with the finest Nether technique, Gordon was also paying attention to the increasingly dense, more and more complicated, and more troublesome source energy aura in the air.

These free energies that drifted around in the air were all the effects of the various magical achievements in the Floating City back then.

For traditional mages who rely on induction nets to cast spells, encountering such an environment is not good news. Their ability to cast spells will be affected, just like the communication tools on Earth are often greatly reduced in the complex electromagnetic environment, which is a reason.

For Gordon, though, it's nothing. He will hardly be affected.

The initial journey was quickly and uneventful. The only battle during this period was against a few wild wolves with signs of demonization. These animals use the ruins of the Vesula Mountains as shelter from the elements. And because he has drunk the water of the White River, he will show signs of demonization and be extremely aggressive.

In the dark world of the mountains, it was impossible to feel the change of time, but according to the hourglass, Gordon still knew that it was already about seven o'clock in the evening.

It is extremely dangerous for adventurers to ignore the fatigue of continuous travel. Gordon and Sigrid decided to set up camp and rest.

They soon ran into problems, though.

Since the world is upside down in the Vesura, it is a helpless reality that the flat ground hangs overhead, and the gravel ruins of the collapsed building roofs are underfoot.

The two men searched around for a long time, but found that they could not even find a flat place enough to camp.

Fortunately, the two of them continued to move forward for a quarter of an hour, and finally found a flat area of more than 500 square meters. Otherwise, he would have to summon the Ice Golem and clear an open space where he could camp.

This flat land seems to have been carved out by adventurers for camping and resting. By the time Gordon and Sigrid arrived, several groups of adventurers had already set up camp here.

They sat around a pile of campfires, whispering and laughing as they ate a humble dinner.

Perhaps out of enthusiasm, or perhaps out of ill intentions, there were also a few adventurers who wanted to invite the seemingly lonely Gordon and Sigrid to join, but they were all rejected by the cautious Gordon.

He found an inconspicuous corner, summoned a shelter for Leomon, set up a few magical alarm traps around it, and beckoned Sigrid into the cabin with him. (To be continued......)
