Chapter 151: A Palace in the Dark
Although the existence of the sea in the sky shocked all the guys present, they still did not forget the purpose of this liftoff. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info If you can, at least Maffeo wants to enjoy the beautiful blue sky. Actually, he really can do that, because he is not the one who operates the quadcopter. He was sure he couldn't handle it, it was too complicated for him.
Marcos was still amazed by the presence of water in the sky, the breathable water, and he really couldn't imagine what it would be like if he hadn't experienced it himself. He was full of anticipation, but he was worried about the dangers that might lurk in the palace.
A small part of the existing palace was outside the sea, which also provided space for quadcopters. It is common sense that any sophisticated machine that encounters water will turn into a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron.
Blackburn still couldn't believe what he was seeing, and he muttered some strange characters in his mouth. It seemed like a piece of doctrine where he had previously said he didn't believe in the church. But now, he had to look like the illusory gods for a plausible explanation.
Karl gave the quadcopter a new battery, and he had to at least make sure it could fly in it for enough time. Once the battery was installed, Carl activated the button to throw it into the air. Freya has been waiting for this moment for a long time, and I believe that it is not a boring job for her at this time. She always treats the thing that flies in the air with a playful mentality, and she loves it.
As the quadcopter made its way through the edge of Sky City, and as it entered the tower from its entire fuselage, Freya had no doubt that the barrier was indistinguishable to non-living things. It only seems to intercept anything that shows signs of life, and it will generously let anything cold in, and I don't know if it was Bakar's negligence or deliberate. But now, no one is going to think about that, all they need to do is figure out what's going on in the palace, and that's crucial.
Carl placed the battered screen receiver on the deck and began to observe the footage captured by the drone's camera. Once again, this attracted a lot of interest from the guys in Arad, with the exception of Blackburn. As a mechanical geek, he had reason not to be so surprised by these magical things.
"Wow, that's so convenient, we can see the surrounding of the aircraft through this glass-like thing!" Maffeo expressed surprise.
"Maybe I should record your face when I have the chance. Freya laughed as she manipulated the aircraft.
Maffeo was surprised and said, "What is going to be done?"
"Click!" Freya just spat out a tone word.
Maffeo's body trembled for some reason, "Sounds like it's going to cut off my neck." ”
"Is it like this?" Marcos didn't know when he had already put his black knife on the back of Maffeo's neck, which made the latter break out in a cold sweat.
"Damn, shit. Get that thing off my neck!" exclaimed Maffeo, a little panicked.
"Click!" Marcos put away the knife as he said the tone, which had already frightened Maffeo too much.
Blackburn didn't understand Marcos, and he didn't understand how the two of them could joke casually when something as dangerous as a sword was around, which could only be seen in the ghost swordsman who had been with killing for many years.
After a brief fight, the geeks finally turned their attention to the screen receiver. Because that was the main purpose of their trip, they didn't want to miss out on any interesting images. Blackburn finally retracted his thoughts and came back to him, knowing that he was most interested in the place he was about to come. I haven't been to the inside of Sky Castle before, but it's a good experience to be able to see the inside through the screen.
The interior of the palace is not as splendid as it could be, but its majesty is invisibly expressed through the dragon-emblazoned banners, marble columns, and curtains similar to those found in the Imperial Palace of Delos. Just by capturing the images from the aircraft, everyone seemed to feel the solemn atmosphere in the palace, which symbolized Bakar's absolute rule.
Freya continued to steer the aircraft inside, and after passing through a strange corridor, a slightly empty hall came into view. On both sides of the hall were statues that looked like armor, and the thin characters on them seemed to tell everyone what it represented.
"Do you understand what is written on it?" Maffeo asked Marcos.
The latter shook his head, "I don't understand, I'm sure it's not Arada at least." ”
"Void Ancestor, perhaps?" Maffeo asked Camilli for answers, but she only shook her head.
"Does anyone know the Bantu language?" said Maffeo, still looking for answers. "Or the Dark Elves?"
None of the people present could answer his question, so Maffeo was finally sure that the characters did not exist on the continent of Arad.
"I don't know these characters either. Karl shook his head.
"I've always had questions about this. Is the language of your heavenly realm the same as the lingua franca of Arad?" asked Maffeo again.
"All regions of the Celestial Realm speak the same language, and compared to Aradd, the closest thing is the Imperial People. The rest of the area is just a little accented, and I don't know why?" Karl explained, making sure he didn't know why.
Marcos was interested, "It's really funny. ”
"Yes, but we can talk about these issues another day. Carl pulled his gaze back to the screen. "Look, those humanoid statues, I think they're magic dolls. Yes, they are exactly what is written on the pages of those dirty books. ”
Their thick armor proves at least to some extent that they have decent defense, but they seem too quiet. They are covered in what appears to be a layer of stone that has been applied by the puppeteers, and there is no light in their eyes. Like knights who had been asleep for a long time, how Marcos wished they had forgotten their mission.
"It's too dark in there. Carl complained softly that the darkness made it even harder to see the layout of the already unreliable, dilapidated receiver. "Freya, hover around there for a while, and I'll see if I can find a device like a switch. ”
"Why do you say that?" asked Maffeo.
Karl pointed to the top of the screen, "Look, there's something on the ceiling that resembles a chandelier. ”
"You're really observing, and honestly, I have to admit that I'm going to be blind after staring at this thing for a long time. Maffeo applauded.
After hovering around for a while, Carl finally caught something that resembled a switch. As Freya lowered the craft closer to it, Carl was able to determine that the lever was the tool used to turn on the chandelier.
At this moment, a sharp boomerang suddenly struck the quadcopter from the only place where there was a little light. The sharp-eyed Carl quickly spotted the potential threat, so he immediately reminded Freya loudly: "Damn, Freya, hurry up and get up the fuselage!"
