Chapter 18: The Savage Land
So when He Xiaoxi talked about the Western Continent, most people's minds were blank.
Even the self-proclaimed well-informed traversers also have a feeling of blackness.
Xiao Chen and Luo Ling had only seen some vague records in the classics, but in their ordinary lives, they had no access to any affairs and information from there.
He Xiaoxi said: "That continent is a place where the gods have given up, so it is understandable that the mages of the Tower of Origin will choose where to flee. At least the Temple of Nature was not willing to pay that much to track them down in the wilderness. ”
"The gods also give up, in other words, haven't you paid attention to that place either?" Xiao Chen asked.
"The gods already have enough believers on this continent to build temples and provide services for themselves, so why run to a wild world and start over?
In my limited memory, the civilization over there has always been far inferior to here, and if there are clean believers who can serve you, why do you want to educate those stinking barbarians?" He Xiaoxi said, "Moreover, even if there is any organization developed in that place, it is difficult to communicate with this side. The furious seas are not just storms and waves. There was also a disturbance of magical power in the middle, and this disturbance ran all the way to the sky, so even a saint would have a hard time crossing that sea. Not to mention ordinary people. Moreover, this disturbance will also block the transmission, greatly increasing the transmission failure rate, even if someone establishes a teleportation array on the opposite side, the gain outweighs the loss. ”
"What's going on with the Tower of Origin, why did they choose that continent as a place of refuge?" Xiao Chen asked.
An old booklet appeared in He Xiaoxi's hand, and she opened the booklet and said, "As you know, the Tower of Origin's 'True Source of Magic Power' is a holy book that came out very late, and it records the method of dealing with the effect of the gods depriving the demon text. In fact, it is just an ordinary book, and it does not have the power of any other holy book, but its content is more important than any other holy book.
However, during the Seven Towers era, the value of this sacred text was not discovered in time, and instead caused controversy within the Tower of Origin. With a great deal of recent effort, I have finally unearthed a manuscript of a diary left inside the Tower of Origin, which is supposed to be from a sage or archmage of some of the Tower of Sources, which says:
...... Today, there is a serious dispute between the Lord of the Tower and the Deputy Tower Master of Asiros, and Lord Asiros believes that the time has not yet come to launch a general attack, and that everyone should master the spell casting methods mentioned in "The True Source of Magical Power" before they can fight the God of Nature. But the Lord of Huckiminota thought that Asirus's idea was purely thoughtful. The Seven Towers fought very well in the battle against the Temple of Nature and the Divine City, and there was no need to delay time at all. Neither the Temple of Nature nor the Divine City can break through our defenses, so we should take this opportunity to deal with the God of Nature, and the forces attached to the gods will collapse.
...... The Tower of Swords has sent an emissary, and we plan to set out to attack the kingdom of the gods of nature. But Asiros refused to participate in the general attack, and the other three Sages of the Tower of Source made the same choice as him, Lord Hakmino was very angry, but Lord Asiros also has deep roots in the Tower of Source, and in the past two days, they quarreled several times in public, but to no avail.
...... The general assault was about to begin, and before the battle began, Lord Hacmino seemed to be a little shaken, and they finally consulted twice, and finally the tower lord decided to hand over the Tower of Source to Assiros, regardless of the outcome of this battle, the Tower of Source and the legacy of the True Source of Magic will be protected. However, the change in the tower owner's mentality seems to indicate something, which is really worrying.
...... Tomorrow, we will set off, and after the Asiros have put away the Tower of the Source, they will take a boat towards the Pearl Islands, and it is said that they are going to ...... all the way west."
He Xiaoxi said: "The location of the Tower of Origin was on the Crescent Peninsula, which is the southern city-state as you know, and from here to the west is the Pearl Islands, and to the west of the Pearl Islands is the Furious Sea. Therefore, I deduced that they had gone to the Western Continent, and besides, they had four Sages, and if they wanted to protect a ship, they should still be able to do it. ”
"There's one thing I don't quite understand. Mao Kai controlled the seat and flew a little here, and asked, "I thought that the Seven Holy Pagodas were also hidden in some small world like the Tower of the Spirit Eye. And what we're looking for is an entrance. But judging by the written record of this person. It seems that the Seven Holy Pagodas can be turned into something that can be carried around?"
He Xiaoxi said: "That's right. These seven magic towers, before they prepared to fight the gods of nature, were all transformed by the Sages of the Tower of Forging and the Tower of Stars. They used a lot of priceless space materials to build the seven towers into seven holy weapons, no, it should be said that they were super holy weapons. So that they can be turned into a personal object and taken away.
And when the seven towers themselves become objects, they all carry very powerful powers, I don't know what their specific abilities are, but according to the records, they are related to the power of the gods, which is why I would say that the most valuable thing in the heritage of the seven towers is themselves. ”
"The Seven Holy Pagodas can be used against the gods, why didn't they use them at that time?" Xiao Chen wondered.
"Maybe the magicians of the Seven Towers feel that they are better prepared, maybe they haven't reached the last moment yet, and they are not decisive enough. But by the time it really needs it, it's too late. He Xiaoxi sighed, "But I wasn't on the battlefield at that time, and I didn't know what happened at the end of the battle." ”
"Okay, back to the Tower of Origin, ask, if we can't get four Sages to escort the ship, then how should we cross the Furious Sea?" Xiao Chen asked.
He Xiaoxi smiled confidently: "My artifact 'Time Shuttle' can be used to travel through time and space, and naturally it can also resist various energy fluctuations. I'm going to remodel it, and if you put it on the ship again, you should be able to cross the Raging Sea relatively safely. ”
Liu Yisheng was stunned when he heard this, he took two steps forward and grabbed He Xiaoxi's arm, and said softly: "The shuttle of time is the greatest guarantee for you and me." ”
He Xiaoxi patted his hand and said, "I know what you want to say, but this time I don't think there's anything to escape." Recovering the memories of the past reminds me of an idiom: the kettle is broken. Maybe in the past, we couldn't succeed because we always had a way out. ”
