Tie of Peace Chapter 24 The Lost City
There is no light here, and it is bitterly cold. If a submarine has less than 20% fuel, then it will be difficult for it to go very far. It is about 50 meters from the bottom of the sea, and this area is crisscrossed by ravines and undercurrents, and if you make a mistake, you will never recover.
Bai Fengyi could feel the vibration of the inner cabin, which would hit from a distance every 10 seconds, and no one knew what was emitting the vibration. The AR cloud map shows their location, which is still 2 kilometers away from the Lost City. Whether it was a shattered trench or a skeleton of an animal, it smelled of death, and he could occasionally hear the whisper of some creature, as if he was trapped here seeking the help of his companions.
"Are you afraid? It's almost 500,000 years old and we should be the first to explore this place. Uncle Shi clenched the directional stick and vigilantly observed the situation outside.
"Don't be afraid." Bai Fengyi replied firmly: "I won't back down." ”
"You should be able to see it." Uncle Shi muttered.
At this moment, a sculpture appeared in front of the submarine, which was a man with a trident, holding a weapon and stabbing upwards. Bai Fengyi looked at it through the porthole and found that its eye was missing and its left hand was broken. This may prove that this was once a bustling city.
Getting closer and closer to the target, suddenly Uncle Shi said, "Prometheus! Where is it. ”
His gaze was fixed on a broken sculpture, and Bai Fengyi also looked over. It was only half-bodyed, its face was fairly clear, and there was still what was left of it nearby. No one knows who cut it off. The AR cloud display indicates that there is still 1 km away from the Lost City. The closer you get to it, the more the sculptures become, either slightly broken or torn apart. Bai Fengyi fantasized that a long time ago, there was a sudden natural disaster here, and then people moved to distant Atlantis. He told Uncle Shi about this, Uncle Shi didn't express his opinion, just smiled very shallowly, Bai Fengyi didn't know if this was a tacit acquiescence, or if he really didn't want to say anything.
Three minutes later, the submarine arrived in the Lost City. Bai Fengyi could see the old palace and the strange-shaped house through the porthole, and he could feel the vibration getting more and more violent, and the thing that sent out the vibration must be here. After the submarine slowly landed on the ground, Uncle Shi turned off the engine and left the submarine with Bai Fengyi, he used zero force to create an air bubble to resist the pressure of the sea water that could squeeze people into meatloaf at any time.
"Follow me." Uncle Shi summoned the sword and said, "He is in the palace, and we will grope for it." ”
The light from the submarine's searchlight gave them a direction, but only one direction, and its light could not penetrate the dense darkness. The two walked cautiously over until Uncle Shi touched a layer of steps, and they didn't finish half of the journey. Bai Fengyi could hear the vibration, as if he was hitting an iron block with a hammer, and each blow used up his strength.
"We're here."
Uncle Shi touched a... The stone wall, and then passed through it, there was no seawater in it, Bai Fengyi could smell a smell of rust, and there was a burning stove in front of it. The tapping stopped abruptly, and Uncle Shi shouted, "Arthur Leopold!" I need your help! Fallen man of the Divine Domain. ”
"Oh?" A hoarse voice mixed with doubt and delight: "Who are you?" Well...... There seems to be another person. ”
"I am a god. Arthur, you are a skilled craftsman. And he's just a mortal. Uncle Shi praised him, which seemed to be accepted. Then the lights on the wall began to come on, and the blacksmith stood by the furnace with a hammer in his hand. He lowered his head and began to hammer, what appeared to be a short sword.
"You are indeed a god, and he doesn't seem to be mortal." Arthur smiled and said, "What do you need me to help you with?" Sharpen your sword? ”
"Me?" Bai Fengyi was surprised, he was very concerned about what the old man said.
Arthur looked up, looked at him, and said, "It's you, you...... You've lost your magic, haven't you? ”
"Magic? I don't have magic. Bai Fengyi replied.
Uncle Shi untied the coarse cloth tied to the sword, walked up and said, "He is just a mortal, please help me polish this sword." ”
"Adeso Steel, a good sword, but ......" Arthur took the sword and suddenly stopped speaking as he looked at the hilt.
"What are you struggling with?" Uncle Shi was puzzled, he turned his head to look at Bai Fengyi again, his eyes were full of doubts. His inner thoughts will not waver, Bai Fengyi cannot be his brother Mo Fan.
"It's not your sword, it's not you." Arthur emphasized: "It ceased to belong to you a day ago, he found its previous owner. ”
"Impossible!" Uncle Shi shook his head and said, "You better help me polish, I don't want to discuss this issue." ”
Arthur sighed as if he had discovered something, but did not say, perhaps after the polishing of time, he was unwilling to tell the secret he had discovered.
The Adesso steel is very peculiar, it is made by the Adesso, one of the twelve Titans, using sealing technology, with temperature resistance, pressure resistance, corrosion resistance and other excellent qualities, the only drawback is that the master will be selected after forming (probably quantum entanglement). Rust removal is not very difficult, Arthur puts it in the furnace and heats it at high temperature, waiting for the hilt to turn red before taking it out, and the rust removal is complete.
After the heat dissipation was completed, Uncle Shi picked it up, the pattern on it was the same as new, and the notch was restored, Bai Fengyi guessed that this was a new sword. But something strange happened to him, the hilt of the sword he was holding was rusty!
"Why? Are you waiting for someone to come back? "Uncle Shi touched the blade of the sword and found that rust had grown everywhere he went, could it? But he couldn't imagine that the person behind him was Mo Fan. It's been 180 years since 2020, and his appearance should have changed somewhat.
Uncle Shi tied the sword with a coarse cloth, and he vowed not to use it again unless his life was in danger. Storing it in the Void (a storage space only for high-level zero-force people) also means that you are about to leave the Lost City.
Before leaving, Arthur told them that the teleportation tower on the top floor could still be used, and Uncle Shi thought about it and went to give it a try, at least to reminisce about the teleportation commonly used in the magic era, right? He used zero force to create air bubbles, and led Bai Fengyi to the top floor, which was a three-tower teleportation tower, almost the same age as this city. He asked Bai Fengyi to hold on to him, and then began to activate the ancient magic circle inside the teleportation tower.
He released the Zero Element in the very center of the array, and the magic array that absorbed the energy immediately appeared, slowly forming under their feet. It was a white magic array, and its light was too dazzling, which made Bai Fengyi only close his eyes and grasp Uncle Shi. Then the three planes launched dazzling lasers into the sky, and Uncle Shi began to choose the teleportation position.
"To Atlanta!" Uncle Shi shouted and closed his eyes at the same time, he was suppressed beyond recognition by the powerful energy, and then with a "whoosh", the two left here. All that remained of the portal tower were floating particles of light, which spread out and became smaller and smaller around them, until they were completely consumed by the eternal darkness.
