Section 967 Stepping into the abyss
As Xnefer spoke, Ingres was also recalling some of the materials he had read about the Abyss.
Ember Earth Giant Rock is a stronghold city in the abyss of the Southern Wizard Realm, according to the records in the book, this is a city built on the sky-shaking boulder, in the withered boulder forest, not only hidden, but also very safe.
Originally, David had also gone to the Abyss and asked Hercules to protect him and find the bloodline of the Iron Hedgehog.
According to David, they lived in Ember Rock.
David's descriptions of the ember boulder are almost all exclamations, and it is difficult for him to convey the real feeling if he is to describe it in words. Just say it's a great city, the pinnacle of wizarding architecture!
David's words made Ingres also curious about the ember boulder. However, now listening to Sneefah's conversation with the woman named Raphtina, it seems that the Ember Rock is about to fall?
Seeing Angel's brows furrowed, Madeleine showed a worried look and whispered, "The Scythe Blood Demon is a half-blood demon, not even a junior demon, it won't be very powerful. โ
The implication is that when their team goes to the Ember Rock Rock, there is basically no safety problem.
However, Madeleine was not too optimistic: "However, the Ember Rock has been discovered now, even if it can be saved this time, there will definitely be an endless stream of demons to attack in the future, and I am afraid that the Ember Rock will still be broken at that time." โ
"I remember, there are a lot of strongholds on the surface of the Abyss, so it should be okay to move to other strongholds, right?" Ingres wondered.
"Yes, yes. However, every stronghold in the abyss is a great project that our wizards have spent thousands of years building, and it would be a great loss to give up any of them. Madeleine shook her head with a slight emotion: "Moreover, each stronghold is far away, and if you want to go to other strongholds, no one can say what you will encounter on the way." โ
It's just that the apprentices are now starting to regret it.
However, at this time, even if they regretted it, they did not dare to quit. It's not just Sennefer staring, but thousands of "funeral" people above their heads are watching them......
Because of the incident of the ember boulder, the atmosphere at the scene was a little sad for a while.
A great city that has stood for thousands of years, and the darkness is coming. The people present, even if they did not go to the abyss, also felt the same sorrow.
As a result, the only wizard of the Gravity Forest on the scene, as well as dozens of wizard apprentices of the Gravity Forest, were treated with cold knives one after another.
If it weren't for the leak from the Gravity Forest apprentice, none of this might have happened.
However, fate is never a fluke.
Today, it was the Apprentice of the Gravity Forest who leaked the secret, and if it was another wizarding organization that was caught in the first place, it could also be leaked. It can only be said that the Gravity Forest just happened to be the right time.
"Who is Ravertina?" Ingres asked Madeleine in a low voice after a long silence.
"She's our signpost connecting to the abyss, as for her identity......" Madeleine shook her head, "I don't know, maybe only the people of the Frost Moon know." โ
When the afternoon sun hid in the thick clouds and the sky gradually became dark, Xanefa, who had been casting spells to locate the Otherworldly Dao Marker, finally raised his head.
"Found it. As soon as the words fell, the heavens and the earth changed color.
A huge power penetrated the boundaries of time and space, and suddenly descended on the Abyss Cliff.
This great power only leaked a little, and it stirred up the storm. Day and night seemed to change in an instant, with hurricanes coming in all directions, and heavy rain pouring down, blowing the trees around the cliffs.
Lightning thundered, and heavy rain turned white.
The sea rolled, the waves were so great that they even hit the height of the mountainside.
From clear and waveless, to apocalyptic weather, it only takes a few minutes. The change was so fast that Angel almost thought he was back in the Devil's Sea.
At the right time, Snaifa faced the heavy rain, and he didn't know what he was holding in his hand, and threw it to the place where Weili gathered.
Bang โ
A huge turbid black-ash vortex appeared behind the cliff platform.
As the whirlpool appeared, an endless wind blew. The strong wind force is comparable to a storm, and some apprentices are not paying attention to it, and they are even directly swept away.
In this situation where the ears were full of rumbling in the wind, Snefa's voice was still clearly transmitted to everyone.
"The passage is open, everyone is ready to cross the border!"
The voice was accompanied by the muffled chant of the Frostmoon Guardians. As more than twenty wizards chanted together, a transparent hemispherical film appeared in front of the whirlpool.
Crossover, let's go!
Maher, the captain of the Frost Moon Guardians, was the first to fly and rushed directly into the vortex, and when he stepped over the transparent film, the transparent film automatically derived and covered Maher's body, blocking the spatial damage caused by the vortex and leading him to disappear into the vortex.
After Maher flew in, the second man also flew up, crossed the platform of the cliff, skimmed hundreds of meters into the air, and finally threw himself into the whirlpool.
One, two, three...... More and more people began to throw themselves into the whirlpool.
Some rushed into the whirlpool without saying a word, some flew into the whirlpool with mixed emotions in their eyes, as if they had memories and regrets, and some apprentices even had tears in their eyes.
This was not a simple expedition after all.
Crossing the realm to an unknown and dangerous world. Even a wizard is difficult to protect himself in the abyss, and if he is not careful, he will not even have a chance to return to his roots.
The bones are buried in a foreign land, and it is difficult to even rely on thoughts.
The atmosphere of the scene slowly became heavy. At this time, Madeleine turned back to Ingres and said, "We should go too, rest assured, this is not a journey without a return." โ
Madeleine smiled, smiled at Ingres, and flew into the whirlpool with the wind.
Ingres hesitated for a moment, then flew too. When he left the ground, his mind suddenly began to be complicated, he was about to go to an unknown world, could he really return as Madeleine said?
Ingres turned his head to look at the silent group of people in the sky, he had thought they were "sending off", but at this moment, he finally understood what Madeleine meant by "farewell".
Maybe it's really a farewell, but maybe, it's really a funeral.
Ingres took a deep breath and looked at the crossover. Come on, let me see what the abyss looks like!
The night flight on Ingres' feet shimmered with black and gold light, and he suddenly accelerated, rushing into the whirlpool.
"Behind the whirlpool is the abyss. โ
At this moment, Angel suddenly remembered a sentence he had seen on the holographic tablet.
When you stare into the abyss, the abyss is staring at you.
I have gone to the abyss, and I will never fall into the abyss.
......
Maybe it's just a moment, or maybe it's eternal.
Ingres opened his eyes when he felt a sinking all over his body and smelled a smell of sulfur.
Without the smell of the ocean, without the coolness of the wind and rain, all he could feel was the strange heat, and the dust of the flickering flames wafting in the hot wind.
Is this the abyss?
Ingres looked at the scene in front of him and felt as if he had come to a real apocalyptic world.
The sky was covered with a thick haze of dust, and there was no sunlight in sight, only an endless gloom. Everywhere there was gunsmoke, and the fog that drifted out.
The ground was charred and blackened, with the scorching heat of the heat.
At this time, dust was blowing from a distance. Angels stretched out his hand, and the dust with the open flame fell on his palm, burning for a moment, and finally turning into a white powder.
Even the dust in the wind is full of murderous intrigue.
Any ordinary mortal who came here would be burned to char in an instant.
"So, this is the abyss?" said Angels.
"This is the abyss. "However, the abyss is very large, and it is not all scorched earth, and there are also forests and snow-capped mountains. โ
"Butโ" Madeleine looked up at the sky, "only one thing, here, you will never see the blue sky." What you smell in your nose is always the smell of gunsmoke. โ
Madeleine recalls the years when she had roamed the abyss, where there was no darkness in the sky and no well-defined day and night. It's always dark, with some visibility, but it looks like it's a veil through it.
"Without a blue sky, it's like a hopeless place of eternal fall. โ
Madeleine shrugged: "Of course, it's also possible that I haven't encountered a blue sky, after all, I've only been in the surface of the abyss, and I've never been to the deeper inner layer." Perhaps, there is a blue sky there. โ
As Madeleine spoke, and what Ingres saw in front of his eyes, he began to gradually sketch out the abyss in his heart.
There is no hope, this is his first impression of the abyss.
Madeleine: "How are you feeling right now?"
Ingres carefully felt the sensations in his body and said, "I feel that the internal organs in my body have become a little stagnant, and the energy around me is very manic and difficult to absorb...... The rest is fine. โ
"This is normal, after all, for the will of the abyss, we are outsiders, and it is not surprising that you will feel stagnant, this is the case of rejection. However, for wizards, their own energy will quickly adapt to the environment, and the sense of repulsion will disappear at that time. Madeleine: "As for the surrounding energy, this is the abyss after all, and it is more suitable for the creatures of the abyss to absorb." Although we wizards can absorb it, it will take a long time...... So, you have to pay attention to the energy expenditure in the abyss, because every meditation will be a long longer than you are in the wizarding world. โ
This situation is slightly unfavorable to the element side and the mystery side of the three major architectures. But for a person like Madeleine, there is not much to lose.
The wizard on the bloodline side has extremely strong melee ability. Even if you don't use magic power, the power of the flesh alone is already very powerful, not to mention, the bloodline talent will appear after transplanting the bloodline. For example, the bloodline talent of the ironclad demon hedgehog is a powerful defensive power, which is almost equivalent to solidifying a high-level magic power barrier.
Another example is Qi Li's Red Claw Chaluo bloodline, this bloodline talent is to improve agility and reflexes in an all-round way, and the speed is fast enough to become a phantom.
And these two bloodlines are just ordinary bloodlines, you can imagine how powerful the high-level bloodlines are.
Although Angel has also integrated into the projection bloodline, at present, the projection bloodline can only be barely used.
As for the bloodline talent? No.
"Since it's okay, we should go over too. Madeleine pointed to a place where the crowd had gathered not far away.
Angel then saw that they were all transcendents who had been on the Frost Wings. In the center of the crowd were two women, one was the frosty-eyed Xenefa, and the other was the one she had seen at the Abyss Cliff beforeโRavertina.
