Chapter 37: The Road to Heaven

Legend has it that there is a staircase leading to the sky at the White Cloud Peak not far away, and if you can walk that path, you can reach the mysterious Sky Castle.........

Doesn't that sound like a good idea?

And in fact...............

"To be honest, I really suspect it right now, this thing was made up to cheat money."

Looking at the lively town at the foot of the mountain, Duanmu Huai was completely speechless and complained.

It's no wonder he says that, just look at the signs.

"Sky City Stairs Search Tour", "Mysterious Sky City Relics Exhibition", "One Hundred and Eight Stories About Sky City You Don't Know", ...............

If it weren't for the fact that the mission of "Castle in the Sky" was triggered when he inquired about the news from the tavern, Duanmu Huai really thought that this was just a story used to cheat money.

It's like going to Flaming Mountain and then coming across something like the "Water Curtain Cave Classic Visit Route".

The problem is that the Water Curtain Cave is not in the Flaming Mountain.

“……… Forget it, it's better to check it out. ”

In line with the idea that being idle is also idle, Duanmu Huai took Ogis into the "Sky City Relics Exhibition" museum in the town, wanting to see what was in this sky city.

However...............

"This is a sword that suddenly fell from the sky one day! It castrated unabated, and even pierced the head of an unlucky bastard! ”

This Nima is a high-altitude projectile! Don't you go to the murderer?

"Legend has it that this is a cup used by the inhabitants of Sky Castle, and Sky Castle will regularly sprinkle these blessings on the earth, and it is our duty to collect them!"

It's just an ordinary cup, and besides, is it true that garbage is thrown out of the sky? If that's true, then the quality of the inhabitants of this sky city is not very good.

After looking around patiently, Duanmu Huai said that this is a garbage fair.

They still have a bit of a conscience when they don't get a piece of poop fossilized out.

"Forget it, let's go straight up the mountain."

Although on the satellite scan, Duanmu Huai did not see the existence of any Sky City, but since the system triggered the mission, it means that there must be a Sky City here.

Of course, there is also a day trip to the "Sky City Staircase" in the town, but it is on horseback, and Duanmu Huai's figure is obviously not able to ride, so he directly took Ogis along the mountain road step by step towards the mountain——— he didn't even go to find a guide, after all, those guys who are full of running trains and only make up stories and nonsense are probably impossible to provide themselves with any useful clues.

Fortunately, there is only one way up the mountain, and Duanmu Huai is not afraid of taking the wrong road.

Of course, he was not the only one who went up the mountain, and along the way, Duanmu Huai also saw a lot of guys wearing armor and carrying long swords, dressed like knights. Some of them rode horses, some of them went on foot, and apparently, they were all here in search of the legendary "Sky City".

"So, you're all here to find Sky City? Does this have anything to do with your trials? ”

While walking, Duanmu Huai chatted with a knight on horseback next to him——— idleness is also idle, just like chatting when traveling to Mount Tai and Huangshan.

"Of course, outlander."

And this knight is also a talkative person, although Duanmu Huai looks terrible with a helmet, but there are so many people here, he is not afraid that the other party will suddenly make a move, so he chatted.

"It is rumored that Sky City is a sacred city that only knights of good character can enter, as long as we can enter the city and receive blessings, then we can show our strength and glory!"

"So, has anyone ever succeeded?"

Duanmu Huai asked curiously, this kind of rumor has some basis, it can't be just open your mouth.

"It is rumored that the Green Knight, the patron saint of Bretonnia, once traveled to the city in the sky under the guidance of the goddess of the lake, and his armor and weapons came from that city!"

"Oh, I see..............."

Hearing this, Duanmuhuai finally understood why these knights were so excited, and they all wanted to be the second green knight for a long time.

But when it's not good to be a green knight, it's green from beginning to end, and I don't know how many times I've been green before it becomes like this......... If you change the end of the locust, you can't do it.

It didn't take long for everyone to come to the top of the mountain, and everyone scattered and scattered, looking for clues everywhere——— obviously, they were not stupid, after all, the sky here was cloudless, and there was not even a ghost in the sky. But the people in the magical world have a strong ability to accept it, and it is obvious that the city in the sky is likely to be in another world, so what they are looking for now is a way to get to that world.

I have to say, these people are not stupid either.

Unfortunately, they are unlikely to find it.

Duanmu Huai didn't get together with these people, he glanced left and right, and then, a bright light flashed in his eyes.

Activate, soul resonance!!

The next moment, the world in front of Duanmu Huai's eyes immediately changed, and the surroundings became illusory and dazed, and then soon, Duanmu Huai raised his head and looked at the top of the mountain——— on the sharp top where almost only one person could stand, a slender staircase led straight into the sky to the pure BC city that was located on the top of the mountains and floating in the sky.

Found you!

Seeing this scene, the corners of Duanmu Huai's mouth curled slightly, and then he asked Auis to sit on his shoulder, and then Duanmu Huai came to the front, stretched out his hand to grab the stone, and began to climb the rock in front of him.

Duanmu Huai's actions naturally attracted the attention of others, but they didn't think much about it. After all, there was only a one-person-sized platform on the top of the mountain, and everyone had already explored it, and there was nothing on it. I thought that this burly black guy just wanted to go up to see the scenery, and some people were even worried that he would trample on the top of the mountain——— that place couldn't withstand the toss of this black guy!

However, just as everyone began to look for clues again, suddenly, a voice sounded.

"Huh? What about the Black Knight?! ”

Hearing this scream, everyone was stunned, and hurriedly raised their heads to look up, only to see that the hilltop platform not far away was empty, and there was no half of it, and the burly and huge black knight before disappeared like this!

Where did he go? I guess I didn't fall from the mountain!!

Of course, Duanmu Huai did not fall, in fact, he was now walking between the clouds.

"Whew............... This place is really not friendly to people with a phobia of heights. ”

Walking on the stairs and looking around, Duanmu Huai also secretly sighed in his heart. This is a staircase that is almost more than three people wide, and the whole part looks like glass-like transparency, walking on it, so that Duanmu Huai can't help but think of what kind of high-altitude glass corridors and other things are engaged in many scenic spots. What's worse is that there is not even a handrail next to this staircase, if you don't step on it right, then you will slide directly......... And then it just fell.

This is really not a place for ordinary people to come.

It's a shame that those knights didn't find it, otherwise they might have fallen to their deaths.

Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai raised his head again and looked at the Sky City in front of him.

It's not so much a city as a mountain floating in the sky. The front half of the hill was hollowed out and a huge fortress with semicircular walls and platforms was built. And in the innermost part, there is a white pure white high-rise building built against the mountain, and the entire sky city is full of a peculiar atmosphere and charm from a mysterious civilization.

It's not the architectural style of the ancient saints, where did this thing come from?

While carefully looking at the Sky City in front of him, Duanmu Huai was also puzzled. In fact, a long time ago, many Soul Walker players discovered that there were many scenes in soul fragments, and they couldn't find corresponding records and records in reality. It was as if the world they had found in the soul fragments had never existed in this world.

Therefore, some players have put forward a hypothesis, that is, this planet may have been destroyed more than once, before the Old Saints arrived on this planet, maybe this planet once had another powerful civilization environment, and then for some reason perished, and then the Old Saints came here and created species such as elven dwarves and humans.........

I have to say that this assumption is still very marketable.

How......... See for yourself!

At the same time, Duanmu Huai also stepped on the last step and came to the gate of Sky City.
