58. Phantom City
"What are you doing?" Demps asked curiously, as did Bister and Tom.
"Make a magic beacon. Wang Qinian replied.
"Magic beacon?" Obviously, Wang Qinian is relatively unfamiliar with the word Demps, and Tom knows nothing about it, but Bister knows a little, but he also doesn't know the essence of the magic beacon.
Wang Qinian said, "Do you have a magic map?"
"Yes, but since the sea, the map has been useless. Demps said, taking out a piece of the skin of a magical beast from the ring, his map is based on the skin of a magical beast, whether he knows the magic beacon or not, the general magician will go to the magic market to buy a magic map, after all, magicians often have their own travels, increase their knowledge, with the magic map is much more convenient.
But generally the mages in the field don't care about how the magic map works, this is the difference between the mages in the field and the mages from the academy, the mages of the academy, even if they can't refine beacons, they know what's going on, but unfortunately, the two mages around me are both mages in the field, and Bister is a little better.
As soon as Wang Qinian explained to them what the beacon was about, they realized that the things they were accustomed to had the credit of many generations of magicians behind them, and they had an objective understanding of magicians promoting human civilization. , Look at the magic map again, there are points of light, use your hands a little, after a while, an island appeared, they were amazed, but Wang Qinian knew that it was not finished yet, and some places had to be walked over in order to truly reflect the truth of the magic map.
Get a bird's-eye view of the island from the highest peak on the island, and there are two smaller islands nearby. But it was much smaller, only the size of an acre, and although it did not sink into the sea at high tide, only a few square meters remained, and it was getting late, and the wind was much lighter, so they decided to spend the night on the mountain peak, and raised a bonfire, and the excitement of those who had obtained the ability had not yet passed. Experimenting with abilities on the sidelines.
The moonlight is good. Wang Qinian looked at another mountain peak at the top of the peak, hoping for the south peak, which, according to Bister, was rather eerie. Get into it. Reality and illusion become one. gives people a sense of prosperity, and they are reluctant to come out, which reminds Wang Qinian of the legend of the Phantom City in the Taixi Continent.
Legend has it that there are places where Phantom Cities have appeared. When people enter it, it seems that if a wish is fulfilled, they even die in it, and the soul is still addicted to it, of course, this kind of legend Wang Qinian has never seen one, but Nanfeng's side, it seems to be somewhat similar to the Phantom City, but how can the Phantom City appear here, Wang Qinian does not know the reason, and he will have to wait until tomorrow at first.
At night, it was not peaceful, there were two people who said that the monsters came to attack at night, one was a long-eared devil bat, and the other was a night owl, they didn't see them during the day, and they actually came to sneak attack at night, but they were soon beaten down under the magic of the three people, and there were two more magic cores, Wang Qinian chose two relatively thin and clever pirates and did magic tricks for them.
After dawn, Wang Qinian and they went down the mountain, all the way to the south peak, there were constantly monsters attacking on the way, but they were all delivering food, and the dozen or so people accompanying them had been transformed, and there were two magic cores, leaving Alof and Tom untransformed, but Wang Qinian put away the magic cores.
Alof's eyes looked at the demon core, his eyes were full of disappointment, Wang Qinian said, "Alof, are you very disappointed?"
"No, it is. For a while, Alof hurriedly denied it, and then admitted, the three magicians laughed, Wang Qinian said: "Alof, if you want to transform, you can't be a dragon knight, dragon knight is a special profession, in addition to your breath, that is, the breath of the dragon, you can't have other breath, especially you and the dragon are already familiar with each other, if you transform, it is likely that the dragon will not recognize you, you still be your dragon knight, in addition to normal exercise, I will use drugs to change you, than with the magic core, you get more benefits." ”
Allouf gave up, and Wang Qinian said to everyone again: "You go back first, the things below are not borne by you." ”
"We've got all kinds of abilities, we haven't tested them yet, and we have the confidence to win. A bunch of pirates patted their chests and said.
Wang Qinian smiled dumbly, thought about it, asked them to go back so early, they were not convinced, it seems that they have obtained the ability, their psychology is a little inflated, I don't know how powerful the legendary Phantom City is, if it is the Phantom City, a fifth-level water magician will almost not be able to get out, although they get the ability, how can they compare to the magic skills that Bist has been tempered thousands of, they have to make them suffer some hardships, and they will not suffer a big loss in the future.
With his mind decided, he said, "Well, since you want to see it, it's not a bad thing, so follow us." ”
Demps frowned, and said beside him, "King, how can you let them follow?"
Wang Qinian said: "It doesn't matter, according to Bister, there is no direct harm in it, but in it, if it is feigned, as time passes, many creatures starve to death in it without realizing it, they have just gained ability, and it is not what they have trained, and arrogance has been bred in their hearts, so it is good to let them learn some lessons, so that they do not know the height of the sky and cause trouble." ”
Demps thought about it, Wang Qinian said something reasonable, since this is the case, let them learn some lessons, the corners of Demps's mouth showed understanding and a smile.
The group came to the top of the mountain, there is a piece of land on the top of the mountain, about the size of an acre, there are a few stones in the middle, it seems to have been artificially processed, it is very regular, and there are chaotic stones all around, but the overall shape is relatively flat, but on the side, there are a number of demonic beasts that have become white bones.
Bist said: "It's this place, you don't see anything from the outside, but as soon as you enter it, the environment immediately changes, almost whatever you think, it will appear, so when you enter it, you must never forget that it is an illusion, in order to stay awake, I have only been in it alone, are you sure you want to go in?"
"Of course, if you don't experience it, how can you know what the illusion looks like, Mr. Green, since you have been in, you should not go in, stay outside, if necessary, we have one of us to be sober. Wang Qinian said.
Biskey nodded and said, "Well, watch out!"
As they spoke, the group of pirates couldn't hold back for a long time, and poured in, Wang Qinian saw that there seemed to be smoke steaming, seeing them one by one as stunned as chickens, his eyes were suddenly dazed, and he didn't move, and then looked closely, there seemed to be smoke coming out of their bodies, through the smoke, Wang Qinian vaguely saw that there seemed to be a tower, the mountains and forests changed, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, these pirates just entered so recklessly, and as soon as they entered it, they fell into the illusion.
Turning around, he said to Demps and Tom, "Do you enter or not, they have fallen into the illusion, and the soul does not know what they are enjoying?"
Demps smiled: "Of course enter, I want to see what kind of illusion it is, and he stepped into it, he walked about ten steps in it, the person was standing, Wang Qinian looked at him, as if he had fallen into an illusion, and he couldn't help but be more cautious in his heart, Tom also stepped in at this time, he only walked three steps, one or two steps more than those pirates, and fell into the illusion."
Wang Qinian sighed and said: "What a powerful illusion, if you don't experience it seriously, you really missed a good opportunity, I don't know if it's a natural formation or an artificial arrangement?"
"Nine times out of ten, it's artificial, you should know if you look at the stone in the center. ”
"That's right, I entered. Wang Qinian spoke, stepped in, as soon as he stepped into it, he felt that his eyes lit up, and found a city, people came and went in the middle, frowned, looked back, and saw that Bister was looking at him nervously, and he was determined to stay, and the city retreated, and a qiē became a reality in front of him, and he saw the pirates standing there, motionless, so he ignored it, walked inside, and in a blink of an eye he came to Demps, and Wang Qinian still walked towards the center.
Bister watched Wang Qinian walk towards it, in addition to being slightly stunned, looking back at him and smiling, he kept walking forward, almost to the central stone, Bister marveled at Wang Qinian's deep cultivation, he was in it last time, only walked nine steps, and before he reached the position of Demps, he fell into the illusion, in the illusion, thanks to the reminder of the ancestral spirit, he woke up and exited in time, so that he was not like those white bones on the ground.
Wang Qinian looked at the changes in the city and saw countless demonic beasts of all kinds, these demonic beasts rushed towards him, and he didn't ignore them, because in his heart, he was very calm, without any sense of crisis, and he adopted the attitude of believing in the heart.
When he was about to reach the central stone, he suddenly saw a young mage sitting on the central stone, he was too young, only sixteen or seventeen years old, his eyes were looking at it, he smiled slightly, Wang Qinian also smiled slightly, and in an instant, everything disappeared, Wang Qinian was moved, although he was just smiling, he moved according to the situation, and he fell into the illusion.
He woke up dazed like a big dream, as if he had a long dream, he woke up, dreamed that he had become a lich, and experienced a lot of things, he couldn't help but shake his head, he had read too many novels, he was a dying person, he actually had such a dream, people are really afraid of death, although the dream is good, it is just a dream.
He looked up at the water hanging by the bed, the potion was dripping slowly, the potion flowed into his slender arm, he sighed, life is impermanent, he seems to be more calm about life and death.
A person rushed in at the door, holding a test sheet in his hand, it was his mother: "Xiao Nian, it's great, it's a misdiagnosis from the hospital, you're not terminally ill, it's great!"
A huge surprise enveloped him, many doctors and nurses came in, pulled out the needles, cleaned up, announced that he had been discharged, at the entrance of the hospital, a car came to pick him up, and he saw his father come to pick him up in person, as well as his little sister.
Father's mobile phone rang, it turned out to be his father's winning bid, it was really joyful, engineering, his inspiration flashed, and he suddenly realized that this was the case. (To be continued......)
