Chapter 708: An Impossible Mountain
"Oh my God...... It's nice and cold here. ”
As the altitude continued to rise, the higher Benjamin flew, the lower the temperature became. He had to summon more warm water vapor to keep them at bay from the cold wind, but even then, Dick shivered and shivered.
This coldness is obviously somewhat contrary to the laws of nature.
Benjamin couldn't remember how long they had been flying, but the only thing he could see was snowflakes falling from the sky and snow-covered mountain walls. Looking up, using the water element to sense outward, all he could see was the top of the mountain hidden in the clouds, as if it would never reach the end.
At this moment, he finally began to understand the horror of this mountain range.
- The endless mountain wall, like a giant wall, leads directly to the end of the canopy.
Benjamin, however, had a scientific view of the universe. He knew that the earth was round, and as long as they flew upwards, they could even fly out of the atmosphere, and there was no such thing as "the end of the canopy".
Therefore, he did not give up halfway, but continued this attempt. When his mental power can still last for a day or so, not to mention the recovery potions he carries, this time he is determined to crack the secrets from this continent.
What's on the other side of the mountain?
It was a world that had never been explored before, and Benjamin was curious.
However......
After flying for a long time, the surrounding snowflakes are gone, the vast clouds and mist are gone, looking up, you can see an extremely clear sky, the temperature is like a cold that wants to freeze people's blood, but the mountain peaks in front of you are still endless.
Benjamin began to doubt the feeling of life a little.
"No, why don't we fly over the sea......?" If we continue like this, we'll freeze to death here. Dick said through his own mouth that was purple from the cold.
Benjamin couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Flying over from the sea is indeed another viable option, and they have a way back. However, he had already flown so high, how could he be willing to leave without trying to climb over it?
"Quick, report our current height. He asked in his mind.
"According to statistics, you have flown 547 kilometers and beaten 99 percent of the people in the country. "By common sense, you've gone beyond the ionosphere and are in the thin outer layers of the atmosphere. But according to the phenomena, you are still in the troposphere. ”
“......”
Benjamin was starting to feel that something was wrong.
The laws of each world may be a little different, but in terms of differences, they will certainly not be so big. And now, after flying more than 500 kilometers, they should be about to fly out of the atmosphere, a bit close to the meaning of the universe, but there is still a law of the bottom atmosphere that "the higher the altitude, the lower the temperature".
Will there be any planet with a troposphere more than 500 kilometers thick?
How great should the gravitational pull of this planet be? It can absorb more than tens of thousands of kilometers of atmosphere, and any creature that enters here will probably be directly flattened by the terrible gravitational pull.
No one was squashed, so Benjamin knew something had to go wrong.
He stopped in mid-air.
"What, what's wrong?" Dick asked, shuddering.
Benjamin raised his hand and motioned for him to be quiet. His spiritual power was also released by him, and he worked hard to sense everything on this mountain range. Bare stone walls, snow, discrete water elements in the air...... Everything still seemed normal, and he didn't smell any magical power.
At that moment, he tried to condense countless ice fragments and launch them in all directions. At the same time, an elemental command was also drawn by him, and the elemental turbulence gathered and was thrown by him onto the mountain wall in front of him.
The ice fragments spread out and quickly disappeared from his sight without hitting anything. As for the elemental turbulence summoned by the rune, it crashed into the mountain wall, and with the flying magic, it gradually carved a large hole between the hard earth and stones.
Benjamin suddenly came to his senses.
It's quite difficult to climb over the mountains, but ...... Maybe he could make a hole here and go straight to the other side of the mountain?
"Wait, I seem to have found something. Just as he was looking at the elemental turbulence expectantly, the system suddenly spoke at this moment, "Don't waste your mental power, the mountain wall is fake." Just as you began to wreak havoc on it, a very weak spiritual force escaped. ”
Benjamin was slightly stunned.
...... Fake?
He looked in all directions, the sky was clear, the stone walls were endless, everything looked lifelike, and there was no trace of forgery.
However, he had already raised his guard in his heart.
After staying in this world for so long, he has not fallen into all kinds of hallucinations. Some hallucinations can not only fool his eyes, but also the water element, and even the system will not be able to detect the problem.
Moreover, on such serious issues, the system generally does not make a mistake.
"What do you mean...... Everything here, including the low temperatures and the impossible mountains to climb, is actually caused by illusions?" asked Benjamin in his mind.
"I don't know the temperature or anything. The system said lazily, "But no matter how low the temperature is, under the influence of so much heating you summoned, it is impossible to freeze people shivering, right?"
When Benjamin heard this, after a short period of stunned thought, his heart was also stunned.
It's a hallucination......
No wonder, no wonder the large expanses of warm water vapor could not stop the cold from attacking. Because this cold does not come from physical low temperatures, but from the spiritual influence that something exerts on them.
So...... What the hell is it?
"Did someone deliberately hallucinate me?" asked Benjamin anxiously.
"I don't know. The system replied helplessly, "It's just that your actions when you destroy the mountain wall seem to have caused some subtle flaws in this illusion, and I can detect that something is wrong." Other than that, I couldn't find anything. ”
When Benjamin heard this, he thought for a moment, and suddenly spoke:
"That'...... You activate the Void State once and try it. ”
The state of nothingness was as if he had temporarily left this world and entered another overlapping space to avoid attacks from here. It is generally difficult for illusions to extend from one world to another, so the state of nothingness can often be a good hand in dispelling illusions.
The system also activated nothingness as he said.
A few short seconds, many times, are just a casual stunned moment in life. However, it was in the seconds of entering the state of nothingness that Benjamin realized that the scene around him had already been turned upside down.
