The Blacklight Castle was built to be closer to the sky, as Hisar Delin said, and sits on the highest peak of Miller, with 10,000 steps to climb from below. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info several generations of kings were born and raised in the castle, almost never leaving the castle, never seeing the kingdom he ruled, let alone the world outside the island.

At this moment, it is night, and the sky is full of fog, and you can't see the castle above, let alone the starry sky and the moon, which is reminiscent of the legend of "black light descending" related to the name of the castle. On the steps below the castle, a large army was slowly climbing upward, and from the air the helmets of the soldiers looked like a white filament interspersed with a large black curtain, and the mage with the staff at the front of the line must have been the needle that had tied the filament and tried to make a hole in the black earth.

"You say...... This step...... Ten thousand?!" Roy panted and followed closely behind Hissar, "Who the came up with this!"

"Why don't you leave the warriors down there? "Jack looks much better physically than Roy, he doesn't lose his breath and can ask questions clearly.

"For I need you to intimidate the king with your army, so that he will not dare to resist. ”

"What the hell happened to you, what did the king do to you, what did the country do to you, and what did you hate it so much?" asked Jack.

"I don't want to answer that question right now, so let's hurry up. "Hisar's breathing was so even and steady that the 10,000 steps seemed effortless to him.

"Why are we in ...... Climb at night, this black light...... Blind ...... If you're not careful, you will fall into ...... And he fell into the abyss!" Roy said breathlessly, and looked down at the next step of the stairs, below which was a pitch-black forest, and he hoped in his heart that he would not fall, and if he didn't fall to his death, he would be scared to death in the forest.

When the group made it to the top, Roy began to regret that he had complained about climbing at night, as the sun was rising from the other side of the horizon as they reached the top, and the warm sun shone on everyone's body and made them feel rejuvenated. Roy looked at the Black Light Castle not far away, and found that the road to the castle was a narrow stone bridge, which was terrifying to walk on during the day, and he wanted to start climbing the mountain during the day and reach the top at night, if he wanted to walk across the stone bridge in the dark, it would be better for him to climb tens of thousands of steps.

"Is that the Castle of Blacklight?" asked Jack, pointing to the huge castle across the stone bridge.

"Yes, that's the center of power in this country, and the only goal needed to put an end to everything in this country. Hissar said firmly.

"Are you still thinking that we will help you commit treason? In the future, we can go in and help you discuss with the king, and see what conflicts there are between you, and I can also use force to intimidate him into making him change, but I will not do it if I help you kill the king and subvert the country!" Roy stated clearly.

"Roy, why be so persistent, if that king is really lost in the hearts of the people, we have done a good thing to help Hissar liberate this country. Jack persuaded.

"In any case, we have no reason to intervene in other countries' internal disputes, nor do we have the power to try them. Roy still didn't back down.

"Why, maybe our mission is to help him subvert the country? This is not the case with the later kings we know, maybe as long as we overthrow this king, we can complete our mission and go back. ”

"I'll talk about that later, but let me take you in. Hissar stopped Roy and Jack from arguing about to erupt, and headed for the stone bridge.

"We have to be careful when we cross this bridge, thousands of people are afraid that it will collapse!" Roy said and his body shook unconsciously.

"Don't worry, this castle and this stone bridge are protected by spells, and they won't collapse so easily. Hisal turned back and said that he had reached the middle of the stone bridge, and he raised his staff and swept it under his feet, and Jack saw something like a glowing powder scattered on the bridge deck, and then the sides of the stone bridge began to widen and extend, and in a moment it became three or four times as wide as it had been, and it looked much more comfortable. "Then you will have a much more secure heart, and I will take you to the king. With that, Hissar continued on his way to the castle.

"This guy's ability is not ordinary......" Roy sighed, before walking up the stone bridge, he looked up, he noticed that there was a row of flagpoles on both sides of the stone bridge, different from ordinary wooden flagpoles, the flagpoles here are all stone pillars made of the same bluestone as the castle, and at this moment the position was changed by the spell widened by Hisarna, and the edge of the bridge extended to the outside, and each flagpole hung a flag that was so tattered that it was impossible to distinguish the pattern on it, as if it had not been replaced and cared for for decades, and there was a brazier on the top of the stone pillar, which had a flame that would never be extinguished rain or shine, and it was estimated that it was a masterpiece of magic。 He looked down at the stone bridge in front of him, and he saw that the stone bridge was not made of stone, but as if the whole mountain had been chiseled and left behind, it was one with the mountains on both sides, and there were no gaps in the joint. As far as he knew, the only people in the world could possess such craftsmanship were the elves who had lived in seclusion for thousands of years. He looked up again at the castle in front of him, which had been shrouded in a thick fog that he had been unable to see during the previous night's climb, and now that the fog had cleared and dawn had just dawned, he was finally able to catch a glimpse of the majesty of the "castle of black light" - the main body of the castle was made of bluestone bricks, and there were several braziers on the protruding part of the outer wall, and the protruding wall was carved with ghost faces, which made people feel creepy to look at. The main body is mainly square, but there are cylindrical towers at the junctions with the rest of the castle, the lower part of the tower is thin and the outer wall is smooth, and the top of the tower is supposed to be a platform, and the surrounding walls are left with square holes. At the main entrance of the castle is a huge dragon sculpture that looks like a living dragon, lifelike and ready to jump off the pedestal and devour you. Behind the main body of the castle, there are three cylindrical towers that are more than twice as tall as the main body, and the towers are connected by corridors, and Roy remembers that Hissar said that the castle was built to be closer to the sky, so the top of the tallest tower should be the highest place in the country, presumably used by the king to pray to the heavens.

"Let's go. Jack said as he led the former No. 2 Ship Warrior and the No. 1 Ship Soldier without the captain to the stone bridge. Sam, who was following him, stepped forward lightly, as if he was afraid that the widened bridge deck was just a trick, and that he would fall into the abyss as soon as he stepped on it. At the end of Jack's team were Carl and Oliver, and after climbing the stairs all night, Carl's "big mouth" was speechless, and he rarely closed his mouth, and Oliver felt that he could finally calm down. He remembered that less than a month ago they had been drinking and having fun in the cabin with Regulus, Sheen, and Tatz, and now they had become like this. He echoed Carl before and said that Regulus was a demon or something like that, but it was because he was jealous, and he thought that Karl was also like him, watching Regulus's divine power make him rise to the top and be admired, and felt unbalanced, so he made slanderous remarks and made a topic, trying to keep him from being sought after by the warriors, and he was indeed afraid of the unknown power. But he didn't think that Carl had really always believed that Regulus was a demon, and was paranoid to the point of madness, and now he didn't know who the real demon was, maybe it would be better to choose to integrate into Miller's life like Tatz's stupid brain.

There wasn't enough space on the front lawn of the castle to accommodate the more than 8,000 warriors, so Hissar cast another spell to expand the ground and give the warriors behind him enough foothold. When all the warriors had come over the stone bridge, they were surprised to find that the widened stone bridge began to shrink again, making a loud noise of stones rubbing against each other, and finally changed back to its original state.

"I said the place where we were standing wouldn't shrink like the stone bridge, would I'd not want to fall!" Roy asked Hissar.

"Don't worry, I won't let you have any problems, but God has given me to save this country. ”

"Why did we make such a big commotion, but there was no reaction in this castle? I didn't even see a guard at the door, and even if we couldn't have an army because of some curse, it should be okay to have a few people guard the gate, right?" Jack wondered.

"You'll know when you go in, this is just the outermost entrance, and no one in the castle usually comes down, so the king doesn't bother to care about this entrance. As Hisal finished using his staff, the gate that was so high that it was about to rush into the sky slowly opened with a loud "creaking" sound.

The crowd followed Hissar slowly into the center of power in this strange country, behind the gate was a long and wide avenue, with the high walls of the castle on both sides, and they could only go straight, because of the large number of people, when the people at the front of the line reached the end of the passage and entered the castle, the people at the back of the line had not yet stepped into the castle gate. However, the amazement of the people in front of them when they saw the inside of the castle did not subside until all the people behind them came in.
