Chapter 9: All the way up
This time, with David's personal leadership, Edison and Lancer soon arrived at the main entrance of the Soul Tower. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
But after arriving at the main gate, neither of them had the intention of entering through the door, but took the Edison initiative to fly upward.
It wasn't until he flew to the level of the soul stone that he began to turn around a few times along the periphery of the soul tower, and entered a secret space.
Lancer and Edison followed closely behind, only to find that this place seemed to be the correct entrance to the first level of the Soul Tower.
And the space inside the entire soul tower is not only extremely dense, but also in it, it seems that even time has been frozen.
Edison took a cursory glance and found that many conspicuous geometric images were stacked on top of each other in a dazzling form, filling the walls of the Soul Tower, which actually gave him the illusion of dizziness after looking at it for a long time.
He recognized that the patterns were carved on the walls in a special method of arrangement of magic arrays, some of which were indeed functional magic patterns, and some of which were deliberately misleading graffiti.
However, you can't say that these graffiti are useless, because sometimes these graffiti also collect magic and act as a light source for indoor lighting, so that the flow of magic is more obscure.
If someone who doesn't know the inside story wants to crack this stuff casually, they need to find out what is really working.
What will happen if you make a mistake, I believe that the soul tower has been standing for so many years and it is fine, which can mean that the people who are looking for trouble have been evaporated from the world.
At this time, David turned around and asked Edison with a smile, "How is it, do you feel a voice calling to you inside?"
Edison frowned unhappily and said:
"It's strange, I still have that feeling when I first saw the soul stone, but I didn't hear that sound after I came in!"
"Moreover, this soul tower seems to have completely turned into a dead thing, and I feel very uncomfortable staying here. ”
Edison's words were very interesting, in fact, when he came to this soul tower again today, he found that the soul tower in front of him was different.
If it is said that the soul tower he saw last night is still full of spirituality, often wrapped and washed by the power of faith, and can secretly increase people's identification with the empire.
Today, the "Soul Tower" in front of him was like a tree that had been drained of vitality and a magician who had lost its magic power, showing a state of dead silence.
Not only did it lose that spirituality, but it also gave people a sense of lifelessness, aging and decay, which made Edison instinctively disgusted it and wanted to leave it.
Strangely, hearing what Edison said, neither Lancer nor David had any surprised expressions on their faces, but instead looked at each other and nodded with satisfaction, as if it was indeed so.
David even said out loud:
"You're right, but I wonder if you're still willing to go up to the tower with me?"
"I want to warn you in advance, maybe the deeper you enter the tower, the stronger the uncomfortable feeling will be~"
Edison rolled his eyes and said:
"Then you always have to assure me that the appearance of that feeling is not because of some cliché plot such as 'the soul stone is polluted and needs me to purify, or the seal is broken by the Seal Demon King and asks me to dedicate myself to the seal', I am willing to go to the tower with you!"
To say this to David at his current physical age is not a scoundrel.
When Lancer heard this, his face sank.
David was already laughing, and while he laughed, he pointed at Lancer and said, "He deserves to be your son, and his imagination is so rich!"
"Only people who think hard, dare to do, and shameless can achieve double 6th order at this age!"
With that, Lancer and Edison's faces darkened a little!
But after joking about the father and son, David assured Edison:
The current situation in the soul tower is a normal phenomenon, because after Edison communicated with the soul stone yesterday, he activated a certain characteristic of the soul stone, which caused the soul tower to become what it is now. Speaking of which, the culprit is Edison!
After listening to this slightly brief assurance, Edison confirmed that the "Nikolai Soul Stone" in another memory, even if it was broken and refined, was only a defective product in the state that had not been activated, and it was far less powerful than the current soul stone.
"Okay then, I'll go up with you~" Edison thought about it again and agreed.
As soon as the words came out, a relieved smile appeared on the faces of Lancer and David, which made Edison inexplicably feel like he was about to be "pitted" again.
......
Along the way, David, as a respected old-timer, fully demonstrated his well-informed and long-lived chatter nature.
Every time he climbed the tower, he could not only talk about the raw materials used to build the tower, the origin of the raw materials, but also the local customs from the production area, and then why he chose the materials of that place back then...... And the most embarrassing thing is:
"I'm here to tell you a little secret! When I was young, I actually didn't like being a magician the most, and at that time, many people thought about being a warrior and reproducing the glory of a legendary warrior~
"And the mage level up is too slow, it took me 6,000 years to become a legend, which is actually relatively fast. ”
"That's right! except that my dad only took 500 years to become a legend, the shortest one seems to have taken 2000 years, it was a woman in the Ball family, I also hugged her when she was born, and then she grew up, and I had a relationship, and had a child, but unfortunately our children have no magical qualifications, otherwise maybe they can live until now!"
......
That's right, this is the most embarrassing, this person can't help but explode himself when chatting, if it weren't for Lancer by his side, Edison would have been worried about whether he would be killed after listening.
Perhaps because he couldn't stand this old indecent and talked about those useless things everywhere, Lancer suddenly said in a loud voice:
"Well, son! I ask you something, who taught you how to manipulate the light of the mind?
After saying this, Lancer's mood was a little nervous, but on the surface it seemed to be asking casually.
Edison didn't think much of it, and replied truthfully:
"Teacher Hilbratis, if he hadn't taught me the [Psychic Light Gymnastics], I would probably still be paralyzed in the hospital right now!"
Edison was right in saying this, but he kept a lot of thrilling experiences and didn't say it.
David immediately interjected, "Oh, you say Hilbracy, that's rare, I tell you, he's older than my father......
So after that, the two had a discussion about the use of the light of the mind as they walked, and David was also pulled in.
Speaking of magicians, they are also blessed, the first nine orders can choose not to awaken the light of the mind, less disturbed by various external original sins, and can automatically grasp the light of the mind as soon as they enter the legend, and the development degree directly exceeds 60%.
You must know that a large number of ninth-order demon warriors, the light of the soul has developed 60%~70% by the time they die.
They will often be plagued by the original sin of the outside world, all kinds of things that can't and can't, and live like an ascetic, or they will choose to go into the battlefield and sharpen their hearts with blood and fire, and vent their depression in their hearts.
After all, the pain of being cut off from the road ahead can almost drive the ninth-order warriors crazy, and if you don't kill the enemy on the battlefield to vent some, you have to suffocate to death.
Even if the warriors choose to live in seclusion like Lancer, every "beast tide" will take the opportunity to kill, and they will always wander around the town like wild beasts patrolling their territory at any time, clearing out some beasts that threaten people.
It's like Edison's original home, the small city in the Three Rings, which was able to build a large affiliated town in just 20 years, in fact, it also has the credit of Lancer living in seclusion here and constantly hunting the surrounding monsters.
......
This way up doesn't seem to be long, and the three of them talk even more happily, but it took 1 hour.
David has lived the longest, has seen a lot of things, and can talk about a lot of things.
Lancer's comprehension of this part of the warrior's way is superb, and compared with his own situation, the truth he said is even more thought-provoking.
Edison has a lot of memories of the future, although there are many taboos that cannot be said clearly, but he can see far, can break away from the confines of the times and various rules, and every time he asks a question that is imaginative, but he can point to the top.
Even the other two were choked and lost in thought, knowing that at the realm of Lancer and David, they dare not say that they are omniscient, but it is rare for them to ask questions in areas they are familiar with.
In this way, Edison is indirectly helping the two to fill in the gaps and improve themselves.
......
When the last staircase appeared in front of the three of them, they all unconsciously stopped talking, their expressions solemn as if they were pilgrimage, and slowly walked up.
Edison keenly found that the last staircase of the whole tower was the only one, and there was no magic pattern carved, and the material was an ordinary stone staircase, but it was these ordinary stones that contained a lot of faith power. (To be continued.) )
