Section 187 A mouthful of foam
readx;? The place reached by the round platform was a columnar hall surrounded on four sides by carved huā stone walls, the exit of which opened on the heavenly huā board, and a stone staircase winded up against the wall—other book lovers were watching:.

"This is the central control tower of Sinlenar, the most important place in the entire city—" The Undead of Ovo explained William's location in his shrill voice as he walked.
"Urban?" William noted the Lich's use of the word, the word "urban" in the lingua franca was used in such a way that no city in Ferron today deserved the name of a city (including Waterdeep). The cities that once qualified to be called cities were all historic cities that were crowned by their respective civilizations, such as the city of Erinal in the time of the human Nethriel and another city that was replaced by it.
Of course, William only knew that the word "city" could not be used, and if he was asked to name the city in the history of Faerun, William really didn't have that ability. However, William did not think that the place he was in now deserved to be called a city, unless it was a famous city in ancient times, or some supermetropolis in some other plane.
William followed behind the lich and asked, "Is this city famous, Sinlenar?"
"Of course, this city was once one of the two most famous floating cities of Netheril's time, and the world thought it had also crashed in the Fallen Cataclysm, when in fact it was another floating city in place of Sinlenar-:." ”
Even William, a secretive idiot who knows little about the rise and fall of Netheril. I couldn't help but burst out of the sentence "I grass", how much ability can I steal and change pillars and give away a world-renowned city.
William asked unconsciously, "So what you just saw isn't all there is to this 'city'?"
"Of course not, what you've seen isn't even as good as the whole of Sinlenar, most of her buildings are on the Alternate Plane, and some are underground. ”
The lich led William through the heavenly huā board into a long hallway, and Owo stopped his progress. He made a series of complex gestures to the stone wall at the edge of the corridor, and a series of secret words that were almost inaudible to William's ears were reverberated in the air. William guessed that Owo was doing some sort of identification. It's just that he didn't expect the defense system here to be so cumbersome, waiting for 30,000 heartbeats, and even with William's concentration, he was a little impatient to wait, and Owo ended this kind of cào work similar to identification.
This kind of tedious work is a bit difficult even with the lich's super-long divine power, and Ovo subconsciously wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead. A little tired, he said, "Hugh wants to see that this place is inconspicuous, but here is the most exquisite knowledge of arcane defense in the entire Nethrel era. The spatial fold and extension of this seemingly small corridor alone is enough to keep the world's fastest bird flying for tens of thousands of years without an end, and there are many more traps and defensive arcane that even the gods can only be afraid of. ”
William's eyes widened as he looked at the unmistakable hallway, but he couldn't see anything wrong with it. Although he didn't believe Owo's words very much in his heart, he didn't show it on his face, but asked noncommittally, "Then how do we get there?"
Owo pulled out a metal disc the size of a basin from under his cloak and laid it flat on the ground, and said to William, "I have just opened a safe passage. Stand on top of this floating frisbee and follow me. ”
William looked at the lich suspiciously, and tentatively stepped on the metal disc, not wanting the metal disc to float up with a "buzz", holding William from the ground and levitating quietly. But William was startled, and immediately jumped down, who wanted the metal disc to "flicker" and run to William's feet again to hold it again.
The Ovo Undead immediately explained, "This floating frisbee used to be one of the essential toys for the children of Upper Netheril, as long as they gave the command in their hearts. The floating frisbee will move forward as you wish. Unless you command the floating frisbee to land, it will never let you fall on its own. Unfortunately, the vast majority of floating frisbees back then were quasi-magic items. Otherwise it wouldn't be."
It may be that he is reluctant to mention the past, and he has just made a beginning. The undead immediately changed the subject: "The safe passage does not include the four walls of this corridor, and if we touch any point in the walls of the corridor, we will be randomly banished to the outer planes. So you have to hovering forward on a floating frisbee. I'm sure some of you should be impatient, let's hurry up. ”
William nodded, watching the lich flutter into the corridor, he weighed the floating frisbee under his feet, but felt a little itchy in his throat, and subconsciously coughed lightly and spat at the floor of the corridor.
"No—" Who wanted to spit on the ground, only to see a sudden light in the corridor, and Ovo screamed, and with a flash of blue light, the screams disappeared, and the corridor returned to calm, except that the poor lich was gone, and he was banished.
William looked at the empty corridor, couldn't help but whistle, and said in horror: "Damn! Extraterrestrial planes? It sounds like the outer universe of the planet (of course, this is wrong). I wonder if this poor Mr. Lich can live in a vacuum?"
William wasn't sure if he should wait for Mr. Owo or his companions to lead him out, as it seemed that there were too many unknowable dangers to even William's psychic sense. However, after thinking about it, he decided to go through this corridor first, after all, it was not easy to just wait here. I just hope that Owo didn't lie just now, as long as he doesn't touch the four walls of the corridor, there will be no danger.
William first carefully examined his whole body, so as not to lose any bits and pieces of brains in the middle of the way, otherwise he would end up with Owo and the undead would be a lot of fun, William did not have the ability to survive in a vacuum. After making sure that everything was safe, William stepped on the floating frisbee under his feet, and silently instructed the frisbee to move forward in his heart, and sure enough, the frisbee slowly floated forward according to William's thoughts-:. William Cào rode the floating frisbee in the small safety area in front of the corridor, experimented for a while, and even did some difficult moves in a row, but he was all unsatisfactory.
This floating frisbee is really a good thing, a good home. William was determined that when he left, he would scavenge a few more frisbees and go back, whether it was for the road or as toys for the little girl.
William rode the floating frisbee through the corridor carefully, and as Ovo said, after opening the safe passage, there was no danger as long as he did not touch the four walls of the corridor. William had walked only a hundred and ten meters before he reached the end of the hall, and at the end was a vast hall, with a huge crystal sphere suspended in the center of the hall. William felt that the large crystal sphere was a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere. Its diameter is nearly hundreds of feet, and the sphere emits a very bright light, which feels as dazzling as looking directly at the sun, but there are some faint shadows wandering on the surface of the sphere.
Underneath the crystal sphere is a pedestal made of ornate material similar to Yu stone. On the pedestal stood several figures who were also cloaked, most of them levitating like the Ovo Undead, and of course some of them looked like normal human beings. The black robe and black cloak, whether it was a human or a lich or something else, when William stepped into the hall, everyone (demon or lich) looked away.
A voice almost as shrill as Owo's voice sounded: "You should be William." Come here, young man!" the voice was very similar to Owo's voice, but it would never be nonghun with Owo's voice. In fact, all the Lich's voices are almost as shrill as they are to be heard, but no one will to nonghun, because there is a very special will inherent in the Lich's voice, which unconsciously tells the listener that the speaker is not another Lich, unless the speaking Lich deliberately blocks this will, but he can never imitate the will of another Lich.
William stepped forward with some weakness, and was about to say something to explain the whereabouts of poor Mr. Owo. I didn't want a human on the pedestal who looked a little anxious to run to William first, and unexpectedly gave William a welcome salute with both hands crossed with Xiong. Most of the etiquette of human beings is basically the same as Jing Ling, and it has not changed much for thousands of years, and William, who had learned some from Santila and Heeron, stumbled and made a non-standard response - other book friends are reading:.
"It's an honor to meet you, young William!" the "xing" salute was an NVXING, and William was wondering if he should say something kind as a sign of modesty, when the first one to speak was already pushed out of the way by his companion.
"I've been watching your heroic journey, young William"
"It's a pleasure to meet you here"
"Strong lad"
Everyone (the lich) greeted William in a friendly way, and said something polite or praiseworthy, although the tone was mostly appreciative, but it still made William feel like he was a great star. This made William feel a little fluttery in addition to being sleepy, and the feeling of being praised by people like this is really good for his spicy mother, no wonder there were so many guys in his previous life who wanted to be famous.
However, not all of them were so friendly, and one person did not greet William, but looked at him with disdain, and then turned his head to look away. It's just that when everyone greeted William endlessly, and even a few shy old NV people stretched out their "Ji paws" to stroke William's muscles, they almost drooled, and this person who had a bad impression of William finally couldn't help but speak.
"What about my great-grandfather? Why didn't you see my great-grandfather?" Sharp, mean, and cold, William's first thought came to mind was that it was a scavenging jackdaw.
It was only then that the crowd noticed (or had noticed but deliberately did not say) that Owo was missing, and one of them asked, "William, where is Owo?"
William pretended to shrug his shoulders lightly and said, "Oh! The old gentleman thinks that the air here is a little bad, and he went to other planes to relax just now. He would never tell the truth that the poor old lich had fallen into the trap because of his saliva
