Chapter 210: Sea of Sky
"Beware of these flying monsters. ”
Lu Chengfeng nodded, but he wasn't too worried. These monsters like pterosaurs and monster birds, although they can cause a little trouble, but the lifting speed of the stone ladder is extremely fast, and they basically only have one chance to attack. It only takes one block and it's hard for them to catch up.
Another long five minutes passed.
Although Lu Chengfeng couldn't guess the exact number, he could also estimate that with the help of the lifting stone ladder, they had crossed at least a hundred floors of height. In this way, the speed of the stone ladder is still constant, and there is no change in the slightest. Just when a few people began to wonder if this sky city was really infinitely high, a bright light finally appeared above the zenith.
The inconspicuous cylindrical spot began to magnify as they ran rapidly.
It's almost over!
Discovering this, Lu Chengfeng and they all breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. After all, although the stone ladder is strong, it is empty underneath. If something goes wrong, if you fall from a height of tens of thousands of meters, as long as you don't reach the ninth order, you can't fight the Qi Wings, and you will all have to fall to death!
It's better to go back to Sky City early, so it's more down-to-earth.
As they watched closely, the speed of the stone ladder finally began to slow down. At the zenith, the spot of light gradually became clearer. It was a huge gemstone that emitted a bright light, set in the zenith. Nearby, there are four crisscrossed suspended trestle bridges. The gap between the trestles was just enough for the stone staircase they were standing on.
Under the induction of the magic array, the stone ladder stopped just right.
Here, it should be two hundred floors above the Sky City!
With a strong curiosity, Lu Chengfeng and the Liu family sisters began to explore. Maybe it was because he found the breath of a human being, and soon, Lu Chengfeng heard a neat clicking sound in the distance. The two mages accompanying him may not have felt anything yet, but Lu Chengfeng's face had changed and he realized that danger was coming.
The sisters of the Liu family also reacted quickly, looked at Lu Chengfeng, who had a serious face, and launched the summoning contract.
By the time the Flame Demon and Ice Ness appeared, the monsters that had emerged from the corridor in the distance had already appeared in front of them. It was a row of humanoid monsters armed with rectangular knights' swords, covered in thick gray iron armor. The reason why they are not considered human is first of all because the closed environment of Sky City is not suitable for human life. Secondly, the eye sockets of their armor reveal not human eyes, but dark red blinding light.
These guys, like the controlled Golem, are supposed to be some kind of puppets.
The other party had no intention of communicating with Lu Chengfeng, and after the encirclement was formed, he quickly raised his sword and attacked them. The strength of these knight puppets is about the sixth order, and they are quite agile, and their strength and defense are also good. However, because it is relatively average, it is not difficult to deal with. Lu Chengfeng activated the Infinite Frost Fighting Qi, and an Ice Blade Fluctuation Sword froze it. Then, he stepped forward quickly, and the sharp lightsaber slashed hard at the joint of the sword, and he successfully slashed through a gap.
Seeing this, the surrounding knight puppets swarmed and besieged them.
Lu Chengfeng was bold, took a step back, skillfully avoided the flank attack, and then split the wave to slash out.
The double-layered rotating light wheel, under the strange fluctuating rhythm, kept pulling the attacking rectangular iron sword. After the attack was defused to the maximum, the light wheel shattered, and the sword qi that countered the injury turned into sharp ice spikes after fusing with the Infinite Frost Fighting Qi, shooting towards those knight puppets. Without waiting for them to react, Lu Cheng's Scenery Sword was handed out again, hitting the original wound without missing a beat. After the innate creation pill was washed and removed, Lu Chengfeng's strength was already extremely great. attacked twice in succession, and actually directly cut off the wrist that covered it with iron armor.
With the sound of a bell, the iron sword fell to the ground along with half of the armor.
If it were a human being, it would be normal for a person to suddenly suffer such a heavy blow, even if he fainted directly. However, this knight puppet is clearly not human. The inside of its body was empty, and it was only supported by a force of magic. Half of his arm was lost, and the knight puppet was unaware. It bent down, picked up the iron sword with its left hand, and continued to slash towards Lu Chengfeng.
"Looks like the head has to be destroyed. ”
Lu Chengfeng thought for a moment and told his thoughts to the sisters of the Liu family who were caught in a fierce battle.
The ensuing battle quickly proved his conjecture. Just after Liu Yuhan cooperated with his sister and blasted the head of a knight puppet with a flame blast. The energy in its armor quickly dissipated, and the rest of it fell to the ground with a crackle as if it had lost its support, completely turning into a dead thing.
The number of this batch of knight puppets was not large, and after the first one was killed, Lu Chengfeng's pressure on them was greatly reduced. In one go, it will be solved along with the other puppets.
"Let's go. ”
Lu Chengfeng looked at the armor fragments on the ground, shook his head, and took the lead towards the depths of the corridor.
The city in the sky is known as a miracle of creation, and no one has ever been able to cross a hundred floors. Now, taking advantage of the magic power change, it is rare to have a chance to come here, and Lu Chengfeng is very interested. The feud between the Empire and the Mage Guild, that's between them. What Lu Chengfeng wants now is to climb to the top of the Sky City.
There, will there really be a portal to the realm in the clouds?
With this in mind, Lu Chengfeng began to climb hard. However, just as they found the stone staircase to go up the stairs at the end and ascended to a new floor, everything in front of them suddenly went dark. The sky city on this level has no windows and no chandeliers. Even though Lu Chengfeng had a keen perception, under this complete darkness, he couldn't help frowning.
Fortunately, this situation is difficult for the Liu family sisters.
As a fire mage, Liu Yuhan snapped his fingers, and a large fireball automatically condensed in the air. With the help of this firelight, the group was able to get a first glimpse of the surrounding situation: the dark corridor, the decorative stone statues that can be seen everywhere, and there are even corals in some places. On one side of the wall, there is a window that is pressed close. Through the dark windows, you can faintly see the deep sea outside. As the undercurrent surges, gurgling bubbles can also be seen from time to time.
"Sea water?"
Whether it was Lu Chengfeng or the Liu family sisters, they were all taken aback.
This is the sky city two hundred stories in the sky, six or seven kilometers above the ground. How could there be sea water in such a place? Could it be the legendary sea of the sky?
Lu Chengfeng walked over curiously and looked outside carefully. It took him a while before he noticed the clues, and he couldn't help but be surprised. It turned out that what looked like sea water on the outside was actually just cumulonimbus clouds in the sky. Under the influence of the rich and pure magic of the sky, the clouds containing countless fine raindrops flow with the wind. The castle in the sky happens to pass through these clouds, and when you look out from the inside, you have the illusion of being in the middle of the sea.
"It's incredible. ”
The sisters of the Liu family, who saw this scene for the first time, stood on tiptoe and looked out curiously. The cute and innocent girl's appearance made Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but smile.
However, at this moment, in the darkness, there was a faint whisper of some creature. Lu Chengfeng was startled, and was concentrating on defense, when he heard something breaking through the sky in the darkness. He subconsciously swung a sword qi over, and then he heard a boom. A black explosive bomb was hit by the sword qi and exploded directly in the air.
The huge explosion suddenly made the Liu family sisters also serious.
With a small move, Liu Yuhan shot five fireballs into the air one after another. With a flash of dazzling light, Lu Chengfeng saw the monster that was sneaking up on them in the distance. It was two short creatures about 1.5 meters in size, with grayish-brown skin and a large basket on their backs. The basket looked heavy, and there was no doubt that it was filled with those powerful bombs!" Lu Chengfeng thought back to the common creatures in the cloud realm, and he had a bottom in his heart.
