Chapter 64 The Conquest of Heaven on
Richard raised his head, looked up at the starry sky above him, and said after half a minute: "But fifteen-year-old Akmund, there are many like me, right?"
Mordred laughed, lifted Richard off his ironclad horse, slapped him the back, almost slapping him into the dirt, and then said in a thunderous voice, "You think too much! Akmund at the age of fifteen was indeed very smart, but it was only clever." The master was fifteen years old, but he was still a little stupid, and he didn't know how many were smarter than him. But now, those smart guys don't know where to fight!"
Richard's eyes lit up and he said, "You mean Gordon Acmund?"
"That's your father!" Mordred corrected.
"Is it Gordon Akmund?" Richard repeated.
"Well, well, it's him. Mordred shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "You Akmund are all strange creatures. ”
"So, what do you mean?" Richard also stepped back and continued.
"I mean very simply, you're a good fifteen-year-old Akmund now, but not necessarily when you're sixteen. Whoever has the last laugh is the one who laughs the best. So first of all, little one, you have to live to sixteen! That's what my master meant by telling me to take you to fight a few more battles on the road! Ukiyo-e Delhi has more than just prosperity, gold and women!"
Without waiting for Richard to say anything, Mordred said, "All right, little one, you must now hurry up and eat and sleep." Now that you have that 'vitality' build, we're going to have to change our plans for the next day, and the journey tomorrow is 700 kilometers!"
It's cloudy, it's raining, it's sunny again, and the years pass quietly in such a cycle.
A month has passed in the blink of an eye, and Richard and Mordred are not far from Faust.
However, the world is always complicated, and even the wisest people will encounter many accidents. What Gordon and Mordred didn't expect was that the families who had enmity with Akmund along the way were very restrained, and none of them dared to take the initiative to provoke Mordred. Not only did they not come to provoke, but Mordred swaggered through their territory with the knights in full armor, and even walked directly in front of the castles of these nobles later, which in the aristocratic tradition, can be completely equivalent to taking the initiative to find fault, but those nobles are all tolerant and laughing in every way, so that Mordred is helpless.
Mordred is bloodthirsty and murderous, but he is not a scoundrel, even if he gallops on his horse and accidentally smashes a stone tablet commemorating a certain grand event of a nobleman, the other party only greets him with a smile, but earnestly proposes to let the territory enchanted blacksmith check the wear and tear of the 'lava' hooves, what can he do?
Along the way, until he arrived at the foot of the city of Faust, Richard never really fought with anyone, but just killed a lot of magical beasts.
Until the iron hooves of 'Lava' set foot on the land of the Eternal Plateau, none of the battles Richard had expected took place. Akmund's prestige, or notoriety, seems to have spread throughout the Holy Alliance. Without enough interests and a strong alliance, no one wants to face a madman alone.
When you set foot on the Eternal Plateau, you will also step into the territory of the legendary city of Faust, and there will be no danger from now on, direct danger.
The terrain of the Eternal Plateau is flat, the field of vision is incomparably wide, the plateau is full of reddish-brown rocks, paved with fine grass between the rocks, and countless nameless flowers of various colors are dotted among them, and the strong colors hit the vision.
Ricarle stopped his ironclad horse and raised his head slightly, and a strong gust of wind immediately hit his face, suffocating his breath. And what kept Richard breathless was the surprisingly far-reaching vision. Looking up, Richard felt as if his vision was far enough to take in the entire red Eternal Plateau!
The total area of the Eternal Plateau is not large, with a radius of only more than a hundred kilometers, and it is more like a huge platform raised on the Norland continent. But no matter how small it is, it's not something that can fit neatly into human view. Anyone who gets a glimpse of it in its entirety will immediately feel suffocated!
Space has power. Even if Richard was accustomed to seeing thousands of square meters of indoor space in the deep blue, it could not be compared with the scene in front of him.
Seeing too much space at one time suddenly made Richard feel lost himself. He held his breath and extended his gaze little by little, and at the end of his line of sight he saw a fiery red pillar-like peak. The overly clear and wide field of vision blurs Richard's sense of space and distance, and the strings of numbers describing the red peaks in the field of vision do not correspond to the scenery they see, and the sense of dislocation of Yan zhòng is simply crazy!
Legend has it that those who set foot on the Eternal Plateau for the first time will be blessed with the land full of miracles and have the ability to see every corner of the Eternal Plateau.
Now Richard finally knew that the legend turned out to be true. It's just that the taste of being blessed is not as comfortable as imagined, but it is absolutely shocking.
This fiery red pillar-like peak is the peak that bears the miracle of Fused. The thin lines around the peaks, which are barely visible to the naked eye, coil upwards and are the road to the summit. And the peak of the peak of the miracle peak...... The top of it was completely hidden in the clouds. It was a cloud that floated only around the peak of miracles, pure white and clean, like a flow, but if it had its own will and vitality, it had not been blown away by the strong wind of the eternal plateau.
However, in the miraculous white clouds, Richard saw something floating and floating on his load, appearing and disappearing from time to time! He was taken aback, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and looked at it with all his eyes, and finally saw that it was actually islands floating in the air! There were mountains, waters, vegetation, and faint buildings of different styles on the islands.
"That'...... That's ......," Richard said, pointing to the floating islands that haunted the clouds, speechless in shock.
"It's a floating island, and the families listed in Faust live on it. The first time I saw them, I almost couldn't believe my eyes. But at that time, we followed your father on the expedition to Faust, and we hardly slept for most of the month, and we can't remember how many battles we fought and how many people we killed. By the time I climbed the Eternal Plateau, I was almost exhausted, and I just thought that I could find a place to sleep quickly, and how could I have the strength to appreciate this miracle? Anyway, since I had already arrived here, I would be able to go up sooner or later. That epic march turned into a few ordinary words in Mordred's mouth, but the awe-inspiring pride and domineering were naturally revealed.
