Chapter 22 Liu Chuang, the man facing the wall
Liu Feng's awakening made Liu Chuang let go of the worries in his heart, and he decided to do that thing.
He believed that Liu Fengfeng took good care of his parents, but he was a little sorry for Shao Dan.
After passing through the layers of jams, Liu Chuang came to the underground bunker of Yacheng, and in front of him was a closed steel door.
A large line of letters is engraved on it, which runs across this gate.
"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations"
It is exactly what the first generation of wall-facing people thousands of years ago, the Great Arcanist Zhang Zai, said.
With a low rumbling sound, the heavy steel door that was more than one meter thick slowly moved open, and Liu Chuang, under the leadership of the superior mage Kan Xing, came to the most important place in Ya City, the Guardian Center.
Liu Chuang was greeted by a vast blank space and emptiness, a semicircular hall about the size of two basketball courts. In front of him is a semi-curved screen. The ceiling and the surroundings are white, as if the whole world is white.
The ground was somewhat translucent, like ice, and there were runes carved on it, and the runes were enclosed in a circle, and then intertwined, shining with a faint light on it, as if forming an arcane array, exuding extremely pure and subtle demonic energy.
What caught my eye was an old man sitting in the center of the arcane array, dressed in a black tunic with long hair and beard, as if he hadn't dealt with it for a long time.
The old man just looked at the screen, with his back to Liu Chuang and Kan Xing, as if he hadn't noticed anyone coming.
Time seemed to have no meaning to the old man, his body was straight, like a mountain, and he let the years flow, and he did not move.
There was a map of Cliff City on the screen, and nothing else. The old man stared at the map on the screen, he knew that the demon could invade at any time, his eyes were full of purple and black, and his eyes were as deep as if there was a universe, a sky, a city, and a person.
The old man's gaze carried the cold of hell and the weight of the boulder, and he must guard this place to make the demons outside palpitate and dispel all hostility.
Kan Xing bowed heavily to the old man.
The old man slowly stood up from the ground and looked at Liu Chuang, and the eyes of the old and new people on the wall briefly intertwined for a moment.
Liu Chuang only felt as if he was transparent at this moment, and the old man's sharp gaze was like a sharp sword, directly through the flesh, looking into the depths of Liu Chuang's soul.
Liu Chuang only felt that he had no secrets in front of the old man, he didn't know what the old man had experienced here in the past thirty years, or what he had realized, if he could really break the wall in ten years, this wall had already broken the old man three times!
Liu Feng only felt that the old man's cultivation was unfathomable, giving Liu Chuang a feeling that could not be reached in a lifetime, his thoughts had been precipitated like an abyss in the past thirty years, except for the bottomless depth and the gravitational force that all things could not stop falling, Liu Chuang could not read anything else.
Each city will set up a large arcane circle in the city's dragon veins to support the witch mage. The third-order arcane consciousness of the witch system can give early warning when there is a large invasion of monsters, and when the wizard mage sits in the arcane array of the guardian center, this ability can radiate to the entire city.
Arcane is hierarchical according to its complexity, but sometimes the median arcane can be more effective than the upper one!
Depending on the strength of the Arcanist Wizard's cultivation and the area of the city covered by the Arcane Array, the early warning time can range from a few minutes to a few days.
Every time a wizard appears, he will become a wall-facing person if he wants to, because a wizard only appears every ten years or so in a city. Each city will set up a guardian center, and set up a wall-facing person to monitor the movements of demons outside the security realm at all times, so it is also called the city guardian.
With Liu Feng's cultivation and the large array of Yacheng now, it can give an early warning 10 minutes before the arrival of the demon tide, although it is only ten minutes, but these ten minutes are extremely valuable for the entire city, which can be used to evacuate residents, dispatch arcane armies and integrate civilian arcanists, and open the city barrier with maximum power, which can reduce countless casualties.
The city enchantment needs to consume a lot of magic stones and energy, and it is generally maintained in a low consumption state to reduce energy consumption, so there will occasionally be one or two weak demons breaking into the city security realm, and it takes a certain amount of time to fully open the city enchantment, and this vacuum period is provided by the people facing the wall.
It is because of the existence of the wall-facing people that countless cities have survived the invasion of demons.
The old man nodded slightly to the two of them, then turned and walked towards the door with steady steps.
The old man has never said a word from beginning to end, maybe after thirty years of perseverance, the old man has lost the ability to speak.
Liu Chuang also didn't say a word from beginning to end, but his eyes kept changing, from confusion and confusion, to hesitation, and then gradually became resolute.
The long mission of the old man has been completed, and now it is handed over to him, which makes Liu Chuang feel heavy, this delivery is no longer the fate of one person, or many people, but the fate of a whole city person!
The arcane array moved slowly, and the magic power gathered from all directions had sublimated and dispersed, condensing into an extremely pure, extremely subtle demonic energy. Liu Chuang sat on it, and what he felt was not the coldness of the ground and the cultivation environment that ordinary people were ignorant of, but responsibility, a heavy responsibility, the fate of the entire city was pressed on him, and he was responsible for the people of the entire city.
Liu Chuang thought a lot, thought of his younger brother, thought of his wife, thought of his elderly parents, and finally Liu Chuang resolutely put his hand on the eye of the arcane array.
"Have you decided, once you cast the witch system, you can no longer regret it, and in a year, only on Chinese New Year's Eve, you can go home."
On Chinese New Year's Eve, there will be related arcane armies to repair and improve the enchantment, and modern human arcane technology is constantly improving, and the enchantment is also constantly improving.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, the city's arcane enchantment will be fully opened, and there is no need for wall-facing people on that day, and it is also the only holiday of the year for wall-facing people.
Liu Chuang didn't speak, but was immersed in the spiritual universe, there was a nebula in the spiritual universe, which was in an irregular shape, and the dark purple starlight was shining, like a blooming crape myrtle flower, and the vortex flowed around, as if to make people sink into it.
"AI at your service, identity recognition, Liu Chuang, median witch mage."
"Open the blessing of the Cliff City Arcane Array," Liu Chuang said in a deep voice, his voice trembling a little.
After saying this, it means that he has become a wall-facing person, and the rest of his life is here.
"Okay, it's already open for you."
A ray of light radiated on Liu Chuang's body, and a universe appeared above Liu Chuang's head, like another world, which was the embodiment of his spiritual universe!
Only a powerful mage can make the spiritual universe materialize and project it into the sky when he unleashes the arcane!
I saw a dark purple nebula slowly moving, swallowing purple clouds, and then Liu Chuang's perception gradually spread outward at an indescribable speed, and he saw many acquaintances, and the scenes he had been familiar with for 27 years were clearly displayed in his sight.
Liu Chuang's perception gradually spread out from the underground bunker, to the most prosperous street in Yacheng, to the courtyard of the Liu family, and then to cover the entire city!
