Lightning was flying in the sky, and the place where the Dragon King and I were standing now was clearly in a dangerous area, and the Dragon King was not stupid enough to turn around and run, but I don't know why he fell headlong to the ground and threw me enough! When I got up, I realized that it was not only the dragon king who was carrying us who had fallen, but all the dragons that had fallen to the ground with a crackle.
A huge silver dragon ran over and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, the surrounding magic force field is chaotic, we can't fly like this!" ”
Without waiting for the Dragon King to react, I first summoned a non-combat state of Xiaofeng and threw it into the sky. "Go up there and see what's going on!"
The parrot-sized phoenix was thrown into the sky by me, and its wings stretched out to transform into a giant black phoenix, and then soared into the sky. Unlike the dragon, the phoenix only relies on its wings to fly like a bird, as long as there is air, she flies, while the dragon basically relies on magic and wings to fly, and the dragon can't fly when the magic net is messed up!
Xiao Feng circled in the sky, then rushed down, transformed into a non-combat form, and landed on my outstretched arm. "The Spirit Gathering Tower is gathering mana, and the distribution of mana in the air is completely chaotic. From now on, you'd better not use any magic, or I don't know what will happen! ”
The Dragon King immediately turned around and ordered, "No one can use magic now!" ”
"Yes!" The discipline of the dragons is still good.
The green light on the Gathering Spirit Pagoda is constantly flickering and flashing faster and faster, and now the entire tower body is basically no longer visible (the strobe is too fast to be seen)! The lightning was still intensifying, and it was getting denser and denser, and suddenly a bolt of lightning as thick as the wheel of a carriage struck the Spirit Gathering Tower directly, and then the green light on the walls of the entire city suddenly began to brighten and blind. Fortunately, the high-intensity light only lasted for a few seconds before dimming, but the central Spirit Gathering Pagoda became brighter and brighter.
Because we couldn't fly, the dragon king and I had to run with our legs, and we knew that we should have run farther ahead just now! A huge bolt of lightning struck the top of the Spirit Gathering Tower in the sky again, and instead of absorbing the lightning this time, the Spirit Tower made the lightning suddenly split into more than a dozen and flew out in all directions. An arc of lightning swept towards us from the base of the tower, and the dragonlord's swift tail swept me away, and lightning flashed past me in a fraction of a second. Then the second lightning arrived, and I pressed Ling under me and held it close to the ground, and the lightning slid again, but the blown up dirt buried me! As soon as the lightning ended, we quickly got up and continued to run, and now the whole of Issinger is literally the center of a magnetic storm, with a lightning strike frequency of more than 100 times per second!
Finally ran out of the lightning strike range, we are all tired and about to vomit blood, although the distance is not very far, but it is strange that we are not tired of being chased by lightning and sprinting all the way! Strange to say, after we left the lightning strike range, the lightning strike over the city gradually slowed down, could it be that we were planning to split me?
Not long after we reached our current position, a giant lightning appeared in the sky for the third time, and from so far away, we could see that huge pillar of electricity fell from the sky and hit the Spirit Gathering Tower. As soon as the electric pillar ended, the Gathering Spirit Tower began to have an abnormal reaction, and it had completely turned into a light bulb, but the Spirit Gathering Tower suddenly began to dim and began to flicker irregularly. To be honest, this picture looks familiar, and the ground station of the space-based laser at the Longyuan headquarters seems to look like this when it is launched! But that thing is like this because it needs to shoot a laser and gather a lot of electricity and cause a partial power outage of the lighting equipment, but what is this spirit gathering tower for? The lightning just now was obviously gathering energy, and the later Gathering Spirit Tower turned into a big light bulb was the credit of lightning, but now it suddenly dimmed to indicate that the gathered energy was used by something, but what used such a large amount of energy?
Just when we were wondering, suddenly, the body of the Gathering Spirit Pagoda lit up suddenly, and a pillar of green light almost as thick as the Gathering Spirit Pagoda shot straight into the sky from the top of the tower! At the same time, a green aura on the top of the tower gradually spread, and the dark clouds where the aura passed were all dispelled, and we could see that the pillar of light emitted from the Gathering Spirit Tower was launched directly towards the moon. The aura swept over our heads at a high speed, and several of the smaller dragons were flipped over, and I still felt the power behind me as I was protected by the dragon king. As soon as the edge of the aura touched the edge of the forest, it was like the wind of an atomic bomb uprooting a large tree that was several people thick, and the ground was now flying sand and rocks, and the scene was like the end of the world!
The huge beam of light was launched continuously for 30 seconds and suddenly stopped, almost at the same time as the beam stopped, the Gathering Spirit Tower also suddenly went out, just like the power outage in a big city, the green light of the entire city suddenly disappeared in pieces, and the surroundings quickly fell into darkness.
"It's over?" The Dragon King asked.
"Doesn't look like so!" I looked at the moon in the sky: "That thing looks like it's going to come again!" ”
The dragon king also noticed that the color of the moon had turned silver and turned red, and the red moon, as if it was about to drip blood, suddenly flashed, a reverse to the original pillar of light, and a red beam of light fell from the sky and shot directly into the Spirit Gathering Tower. The real city suddenly lit up like electricity, and the dark red light quickly stained the whole city.
Rumble! The ground beneath his feet suddenly shook violently, and a deafening sound came from the ground. A wall of earth more than ten meters high suddenly exploded on the ground more than ten meters behind us like a directional blast, and the dust that flew into the sky completely buried me in the land again!
The shaking under his feet became more and more intense, and the place where the explosion just now suddenly began to spray smoke outward, and the ground began to rise in shaking, and the circle of the explosion just now happened to be the dividing line, and the whole city began to rise slowly. The crimson beam of the red moon in the sky never ended, and that beam may be the driving force behind the city's ascent.
The shaking of the cave mountain lasted for about twenty minutes, and the explosion fracture just now had turned into a cliff, to be exact, the city wall, but the inside of the city wall looked like a cliff because it was filled with mud! Ling said something to me but I didn't hear it clearly, there was a loud noise just now, and my ears are still a little tinnitus! Ling leaned in my ear and shouted, "The magic has been restored!" ”
"Got it!" I replied loudly.
While the cave and the mountains are shaking on our side, the seaside opposite Issinger is also turning over the river and the sea. The sudden rise of Esinger set off a huge wave of nearly 100 meters in the sea, and almost the entire sea water near the seabed was lifted into the sky, and when the water fell again, it had turned into a huge rainstorm, and of course, many fish fell in the middle!
The red moon in the sky had been fading since Issinger began to rise, and now the red moon had almost completely returned to its original silvery white. Just after it turned completely white, the red beam suddenly stopped, and the moment the beam stopped, the whole city shook violently, and then the city suddenly stopped rising and stabilized in this position, it seems that the moon's energy is exhausted!

"Look at the Gathering Spirit Tower!" Ling pointed to the Spirit Gathering Tower and shouted.
I looked up, and it turned out that dense red runes appeared on the side of the Spirit Gathering Tower, and these huge runes were not only dense but also emitted a strange red light, making the entire Spirit Gathering Tower look so mysterious and terrifying!
"Let's go, let's go to the top of the Spirit Gathering Tower and have a look!" I led everyone back to the center of the city, and took the dragon king in human form through the passage into the Gathering Spirit Tower. The Holy Dragon's Tooth that was originally inserted in the ground actually fell to the ground, and the magic array on the ground still emitted red light, but it was not very strong. A stone platform rose from each of the original two holes, and the light star and the dark star echoed each other on the stone platform.
I walked over and put both the Light Star and the Dark Star into the Demon King Crystal Bottle, and Ling also helped me pick up the Holy Dragon's Fang. As soon as the three treasures left their positions, the entire magic circle immediately lost its brilliance, but this thing is the seal that controls the rise and fall of the city, and it is no longer needed!
We finally saw the whole picture of Issinger on the top of the Gathering Spirit Tower (I hand-drew a sketch of Issinger's structural layout, and there is a link address at the bottom of the main character-related page related to the work, so if you don't understand Issinger's layout, you can understand it). A city wall appeared again outside the original city wall, although the city has been filled with mud, but the general outline of the city wall can still be seen, the height of this outer wall is more exaggerated than I thought at the beginning of the outer wall, it is estimated that the total is more than 500 meters, and the thickness of the city wall is also as high as more than two kilometers, even if no one interferes and wants to dig through the city wall, it will take more than half a month!
The front width of this wall is about 87,000 meters, and the oversized silhouette makes the entire wall look like the Great Wall!
We went to the other side of the Gathering Spirit Pagoda and took a closer look at the direction of the port. The change on this side of the port is somewhat unexpected, and the original port is actually part of an internal port. In the middle of the city there is a huge rectangular artificial lake, with a total edge of about 18,000 meters, which connects to the sea by a channel almost 3,500 meters wide, which means that the artificial lake is actually a pier that sinks into the interior of the city. This design can provide quite complete protection for the ships, and there will be no tragic situation like the Torrent City where the port was washed by the Japanese blood, and the city's cannons will always be larger than the naval guns, after all, the roadbed weapons do not need to consider the volume, and our ammunition is relatively sufficient. Last time, the loss of Torrent City was not very strict, and the battleship actually couldn't do anything about the harbor battery, but it was because the port of Torrent City was completely exposed, so it was swept away by the little Japanese light!
I saw that the channel into the sea from the port did not seem to be open, and there were three things blocking the channel. "Ling, what are those three obstacles? Why can't the waterway be passed? ”
Ling looked at it and said: "This voyage into the sea of Issinger is originally like this, the two inside are gates, their tops are relatively wide, and the height is also very low, basically used as a bridge, when there are ships passing by, they are opened, and they are closed when there is no need to cross the ship or when the channel needs to be blocked." However, they are mainly used as gates, and there is a distance teleportation array on both sides of the channel, and there is no need for a bridge, that thing is just a backup passage! The outermost section of the city wall at the mouth of the sea is actually active, and when it needs to be opened, you can sink that section of the city wall into the sea to open the passage, and when you need to block it, you just need to raise the city wall! ”
"And the automatic locks!"
"Who said it was automatic? That thing needs to be powered by 300 monsters! But it doesn't have to be closed until the war anyway, so there's nothing! ”
"I'd better find a way to make a magic device!" If such a big door can't be closed at a critical moment, it will be troublesome!
"That's fine! Isn't there an automatic gate in the Lost City! ”
"Lost? That's great! "It's right to think about it, didn't you lower the bridge under the water during the last Lost War! Looks like I didn't notice that the Lost really had that thing!
After seeing the scale of the city, I began to feel depressed, and the dragon king patted me on the shoulder and said, "Your city is very good!" It's almost time to catch up with my Dragon Island! ”
"Do you have a way to find a lot of help?" I asked the Dragon King.
"Helper?"
"Yes, a cleaning helper!"
"Cleaning?" The dragon lord didn't notice what I meant.
I pointed in the direction of the port and said, "Isinger has been buried in the ground for hundreds of years, and this side of the water is overgrown with aquatic weeds and corals, and my guild has only a few thousand people, and it will probably take a year to clean up these things!" So a helper is needed! And the city on the other side has been completely filled with mud, and I have to clear a lot of earth, but I have too few people! It's too busy! ”
As soon as I said this, the dragon king also noticed, it is strange that Isinger's side of the sea has been soaked in the water for so long, and it is strange that things do not grow, and the other side is also completely covered with mud, not to mention that the city is also in ruins, and it really needs a lot of labor! "We dragons are relatively withdrawn, and we rarely deal with other races except our own, so I can't help you find help. But I have a way to help you out! ”
"What's the solution?"
"Ever heard of the Dwarves?"
"Of course!"
"This race is very good at digging tunnels, you can find them to help you clean up the dirt on the west side of the city (east is the sea), and by the way, let them help you build all the houses, the dwarves have the best construction skills in the world!"
"But why do they help me clear the ruins and build a city?"
"Because of this!" The dragon king magically took out a ruby the size of a human head. "I subsidize you with some gems, you take these gems to the Dwarf King, these guys have no less thirst for gems than our dragons!"
"What about the other side?"
"Here you can go to the natural forest and figure it out."
"You said that the natural forest with a lot of elves?"
"That's right! There are all kinds of elemental creatures living in it, and you can lobby the water elemental and the air elemental to join in to help you clean up the city, and you don't have to worry about any more things with their help! ”
"But ......!"
The Dragon King interrupted me without waiting for me to finish: "Elemental people are kinder, say some good things appropriately, and give a little favor and they will come to help you, but be careful of the elves in the forest, although they are also very kind, they are not hospitable at all!" ”
__________________________________________________________
"Your Highness really has a strange point of view! The first time I've heard of being careful with elves, it's probably more dangerous for us dark creatures, right? ”
"Are dark creatures dangerous? I don't think so! "The Dragon King's point of view is really different!" Dark creatures only pursue profits, they never do things that are not beneficial to themselves, I can clearly know whether I am a target when I stand next to them, but light creatures do not have this standard, although they act roughly according to certain rules, but there are often abnormal situations, so I don't like light creatures very much! Of course, we've been fighting the Light Protoss for so long, and that's one of the reasons why I hate them more! ”
"Hahahaha! Your Highness is so refreshing! ”
Because the dragon king has to wait until tomorrow night, it is already early in the morning, to be exact, it should be tonight's date, so he can't leave. Although Isinger hasn't really become my city yet, I'm basically half the master, not to mention that I proposed the date, so it's not good for me to leave the Dragon King here alone, so I can only talk nonsense with him boringly!
Before I knew it, a bright line of red light had appeared on the sea level in the east, and I sat on the edge of the Gathering Spirit Pagoda with my arms around Ling and watched the sun rise from birth. The dragon king had long since fallen asleep on one side, and we were the only ones who were still awake. "The sun rises and sets every day, but not many people see it!" I don't know why there have been so many exclamations lately!
Ling suddenly took my words and said: "Only what is lost is beautiful, the rising sun will rise again every day, so it is not beautiful, when the sun no longer rises, the sun will be the most beautiful!" ”
"When did you learn so much?" Recently, I found that Ling's intelligence level seems to be constantly improving, and his personality seems to be becoming more and more prominent! It stands to reason that normal NPCs should not have a clear personality, such as Lucky and Xiaofeng, although they can feel their character, but they are very stiff, and they don't feel like real lifeforms, but Ling is more and more like a real person. In addition to Ling, I found Ayana and Night Shadow, both of them have obvious personality tendencies, I don't know why the same demon pet is so different!
"Oops! Don't ask! "Ling and I are sloppy, and it is clear that he is deliberately hiding something! I'm not going to ask about her anyway, and I haven't seen any bad changes so far.
It's already dawn, and I don't have much time, so I'm going to take Poplar and them around the school today! I didn't take back Ling when I went offline, and I also summoned Luck and Plague and asked them to accompany the Dragon King on my behalf, anyway, they are all in Isengh now, and there are hundreds of Dragon King's subordinates around, as long as it is not the NPC army of the Bright God Clan, no one can enter the city!
After cleaning up my personal hygiene, I left the dormitory, and they lived upstairs with Poplar, and I went up and called them to go to breakfast together. The ancients had a saying, how to say, the road is narrow! actually let me meet the annoying Li Ting during the meal, and even the group secretary who dragged it was like 2580,000 yuan!
Lorraine, who was eating, looked up at me, then looked at the two people opposite, and then continued to eat with her head down, and whispered: "Those two are a couple, not spies!" ”
Couple? No wonder, when Li Ting and I got angry yesterday, this guy ran over as if he wanted to fight with me! When I was staring at the two of them, Li Ting looked up and saw me, and the secretary of the League next to me noticed Li Ting's movements and also looked up at me, so he glared at me with threatening eyes. Stare at it! You think you're the evil eye of the Lost City!
The morning was spent peacefully, I almost listened to the morning class as if I was in prison, and I could sleep in the class that others didn't like, but I couldn't sleep, and sitting stupidly in the morning was killing me! When school was finally over, Lorraine quietly approached me and said completely unrelated things with the expressions and movements of a girl chatting with someone. "Confirm that the people in this class are normal, and the spy is not in this class!"
The morning meditation made my temper a little bad, and I opened my mouth a little impulsively: "Got it, hurry up and leave with your people!" ”
Lorraine gave me a puzzled look, but it was only for a moment, and then Lorraine, who quickly recovered to normal, walked out of the classroom with Luo Bing and Poplar. I've been playing "Zero" for so long, and although I've been cured of my loneliness, some of my living habits still haven't changed, such as I don't like to crowd with people! At the end of class, the door of the classroom was the most crowded place, and everyone struggled to run out for fear that they would not be able to eat if they went out late. Unless you're particularly wealthy, you'll have to squeeze in a sea of people in a college cafeteria!
I don't worry about food anyway, I can drive out to eat if I can't do it, no one is as good as me, isn't it! Besides, there is only a half-day class today, and there is nothing to do in the afternoon, so there is no need to rush! So I sat in the teacher and waited for the people to go before leaving, and I was looking at the floor in a daze, when suddenly I noticed a pair of feet in my sight. I looked up along these feet and looked up, it was the regimental secretary again, how could I be like a fly! Annoying!
"At two o'clock in the afternoon, I'll be waiting for you in the No. 3 indoor gymnasium!" This guy really looks like the gangster boss in that old movie when he speaks, and he is imposing. But I'm not a good citizen who is bullied by the underworld, and I won't be angry!
"Did I say I was going?" I said slowly.
The secretary of the regiment, who had already turned around and was about to leave, turned back. "What did you say?"
"I said I don't have to go!"
"You're ......!"
"Don't ask you, me, it's you who ask me to be sincere!"
"Humph! If you dare not come and see it in the afternoon! "This guy is getting more and more like a ruffian.
I thought about it at noon and decided to meet him. I wasn't afraid of him, but if I didn't go, he would keep harassing me, so I decided to check it out!
When I got to the gymnasium, I thought something was wrong! The whole gym was full of people, and most of them were girls! With a lot of strength, I managed to squeeze into the inside of the gymnasium, and now I realize that there are more people inside than outside! Thanks to spring, if so many people gather together in the summer, a few people will die of heat!
I was thinking sadly about where I should go to find him with so many people in the venue, when I suddenly saw a person - Li Ting! She was standing on the platform in the middle of the training ground, and next to her stood a man in a suit, but that wasn't our regimental secretary. I didn't look for him for a long time, so I had to reluctantly walk to Li Ting's side: "Hey? Do you know where our great League secretary has gone? ”
Seeing me coming, Li Ting's eyes actually flashed, and I knew it was because of excitement. I don't know why she was so excited to see me, but I did know that she didn't have a twinkle in her eyes because she thought of me, and to be honest, I saw schadenfreude in her eyes.
Suddenly, the voice of the radio rang out in the noisy gymnasium: "Hey, hey! Audition! Good afternoon, dear students and teachers! This afternoon is our school's most famous college student kickboxing champion, Yin Jie, who will have a martial arts performance with another student from our school, Shenlin! Let's all applaud them with a round of applause! ”
Wait, the first champion of free fighting wants to go head-to-head with Shenlin, isn't that just going head-to-head with me? No wonder that high platform looks so familiar, it turned out to be a fighting platform! When did I promise him to fight him! At this time, I saw the crowd on the opposite side get out of the way, and our league secretary ran over and jumped into the ring in sportswear. This guy claims to want me to compete with me, as long as I refuse, there will be no more personality and dignity at all, and he will only be considered a coward in the future. But if I fight him, he can beat me effortlessly if he is the fighting champion of the Chinese University Games, at least that's what he thinks.
But the situation was not what he thought......
