Section 69 Greystone Tower
"Whew~"
A listless grunt came from the big man behind Lance.
Lance stood up in some surprise, and when he saw the guy's appearance clearly, he couldn't help but look surprised.
This guy is actually the new pet he signed by relying on the trick of abduction and abduction - Time Dragon Bacon!
"Hey, you saved me?"
Lance gently stroked Bacon's neck, whose bright eyes now looked so cloudy and very tired.
Bacon's wings were folded and clinging to his sides, as if he had lost even the strength to stretch his wings.
Lance looked at the tired appearance of the Time Dragon, and couldn't help but feel a little distressed in his heart.
And at this time, the fox also re-enacted all the things that happened after Lance passed out, and Lance finally figured out the cause and effect of the incident.
......
At this time, they were not in the dark and terrifying astral realm as Mileni imagined.
Because at the moment when the exile of the other world took effect, the pet contract of Bacontongguò, who was sleeping in another time and space, felt the danger of Lance.
He woke up as soon as possible, and then with his ability in time and space, he actually stopped the trend of Lance falling into the astral boundary.
But Bacon was young after all, he had just been born, and as a young dragon, even if he was talented, his abilities were really limited.
Although he was well versed in the laws of time, he did not have the strength to wield it.
One man and one dragon wandered through the time and space between the astral plane and Creeland for a while, and finally the time dragon used all his strength. After finding several time beacons in the Tower of Steel that were linked to other spaces, they chose the closest one, and the two returned to Creeland.
"Bacon's power can't allow me to return directly to the inside of the Tower of Steel, so I can only teleport by selecting the point closest to the astral boundary from the space-time network constructed by the Tower of Steel and other places...... Then this place, although it is still Creeland, is estimated to be the closest point to the lower plane in the entire Kreeland plane!"
When Lance thought this, the Time Dragon suddenly snorted twice, stretched out his tongue and licked Lance's body affectionately, then flapped his wings, and suddenly disappeared in place.
Lance knows. He saw that he was safe. So the rest went.
Traveling through time and space, even a magical and powerful creature like the Eternal Time Dragon consumes a lot of power. He was supposed to fall into a deep sleep as soon as he was done planeswalking. In this way, the body is restored. But he didn't. He chose to stand by Lance's side. For fear that other creatures would hurt him.
This affection touched Lance. When he thought about his original motives, he was a little ashamed.
"Fortunately, Bacon saved me, otherwise I would have been killed by that woman Mileni!"
Lance wandered slowly between the quiet halls. Clenched fists.
"When I get to the third level, I'm definitely going to kill her!" The love in Lance's heart was very complicated.
This is the second time he has walked on the brink of life and death.
The first time, it was the crystal dragon bud and the old devil who saved him, but he paid the price of a heart, and the second time, it was still a dragon who saved him. It's just replaced with Time Dragon Bacon.
Thinking about it this way, I really have a little fate with the dragon family.
"If I think about it, I was careless, if I used the ability to shuttle, Mileni would not have been able to estimate my path so accurately, and she would not have been able to send me into the astral realm so smoothly. As Lance walked, he reflected in his mind on the mistakes he had made.
These mistakes, which may seem minor, are often fatal. After missing once, you must remember it and not commit it a second time.
The next time he walked on the edge of life and death again, he might not still be so lucky, and a third dragon would come to his rescue.
......
The gray glass obscured a qiē, and Lance stood beside the glass and looked out.
I saw a white fog shrouded in a qiē. Below him are a series of floors, each with some mysterious cornices protruding, and some runes and beast carvings hanging on them.
Above, a grey sky.
It is clear that this is a tall tower. Lance, on the other hand, is on the top floor of the tower.
"The Tower of Steel is the country of the construction of Master William, so the place it connects is also a world of construction?"
Lance thought to himself as he stood by the glass.
The entire top floor was empty, and there was nothing he could find, except for a lift that didn't stop at this level, and he found no trace of the structure.
It was all dead and silent, and after Bacon left, he felt an indescribable loneliness and desolation.
The view from outside the tower is even more somber. The gray fog seemed to never see the light of day, and with the penetrating power of the eagle's eye, it was only possible to see the range of thirty or forty feet.
Farther away, it was obscured by the thick fog, and it was impossible to see clearly.
"What the hell is this place!"
Lance couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
He moved his muscles and bones, and the damage he had suffered from the cold invasion unique to the astral plane had gradually recovered.
Fortunately, Bacon showed up in time, otherwise that cold alone could have killed Lance, not to mention the hundred-eyed monster he saw in a coma.
Who knew that at this time, under the originally quiet tower, there was a sudden sound of crunching machinery.
"It's the lift!"
Lance was slightly startled, and immediately made a defensive gesture, and the sword of Macon clenched in his hand.
The elevator slowly ascended, and a base made of rusty steel slowly appeared in front of Lance. On top of the pedestal, stood a skinny construct with a funny top hat on its head, and its body was sprayed with colorful paint, all kinds of colors, as if some naughty boy had scribbled badly on him.
"Dear master, you have finally arrived. ”
The comical construct slowly walked out of the elevator, revealing a very anthropomorphic attitude.
Lance noticed that his eyes were actually black.
"Hmm, it's the most precious high-grade double-refined black jue stone. ”
He was a little surprised. It looks like such a terrible structure, and his master is willing to use such precious materials on his body?
Wait, what does he call himself? Master?
Lance was a little confused. I just came to this place by accident, how did I become the master in the mouth of the construct?
Before he could speak, the constructor had already come to Lance respectfully, bowing to him like a butler.
"Since the master can come to the Gray Stone Tower, he must have already passed all the tests of the Steel Tower, right?"
"Only then will you be teleported to the Greystone Tower. According to the rules of the previous master, the Greystone Tower will be cut off from the Iron Tower from this moment on, and every qiē here will be yours, and no one else will come - even if they pass all the levels of the Steel Tower. ”
"I'm the Perfect Build, Mark Forty-Seven, and the Director of the Greystone Tower, and I'll be happy to answer any questions you have. ”
After that, the guy who called himself "Mark Forty-Seven" took off his top hat, revealing the top of his bare and rusty head, and smiled slightly: "If you don't mind, I would like to tell you about your current situation...... And, of course, there are some of the conditions faced by the Greystone Tower. ”
......
Three hours later, Lance sat comfortably in the bathroom on the ninth floor of the Greystone Tower, enjoying a warm hot bath.
What Mark Forty-Seven said just now, he needs some time to digest and understand.
According to him, only those who have cleared the Tower of Steel are eligible to inherit part of Master William's legacy. Of course, the Tower of Steel itself is not in the legacy. And this gray stone tower, also built by Master William, is equivalent to a construction division. ”
"I didn't expect Peigen to be able to search for the time nodes related to the Steel Tower, and he actually teleported here by mistake, making the butler of the Gray Stone Tower think that he was the successor of the Shun Lì Tong Guò test. Such a loophole in the rules, presumably even Master William did not take into account. ”
After all, the Eternal Time Dragon is a creature that is too rare. Even a powerful legendary wizard may not be able to meet it once in his lifetime.
It is precisely because of this rule that Lance is actually a blessing in disguise and has the opportunity to inherit the inheritance of Master William, which he never imagined.
Under the introduction of Mark Forty-seven, he also had a specific understanding of the gray stone tower and the surrounding situation.
As he had guessed, at this moment, he was no longer in the depths of the Creeland plane.
The Greystone Tower sits on a mountain to the east of a canyon, the mountain path is rugged and steep, and the mountain is often surrounded by a terrifying mist because of the magic ban set by Master William.
As a result, there are very few creatures to see here except for a sleek gray stone tower.
But that doesn't mean it's a safe place, in fact, the Greystone Tower is less than five or six miles away from the real chaos killing grounds.
The canyon to the west is called the Canyon of Fire.
The Flame Canyon is the territory of the famous demon lord Morgan in the north and the northeast extension of the famous Marseille Line, the edge of Creeland in the north. Human wizards have built a trench here to defend against attacks from demons and other creatures.
And the Flame Canyon has also become the place where the battle between the two sides is fiercest, and thousands of wizards and demons remain on the battlefield forever every year.
Tens of thousands of miles away from the other end of the Marseille Line, the northwest extension of the Marseille Line, was the goal of Reims' original trip - Fort Black!
He didn't expect that he would run farther away by mistake!
Although the Flame Canyon sounds like it is a line of defense with the Black Gold Castle, this line of defense is thousands of miles long, and it is not easy to cross it.
What's more, he can't get out now.
Because if you want to inherit the construction legacy of Master William, there are other conditions. (To be continued......)
