Chapter 38: The Tower of Babel
Surrounded by a swirl-shaped dark cloud, the top of the tower is inserted in the center of the whirlpool, reaching into the unknown, bringing deep and strange purple lightning to shine.
At this time, the two carriages had already arrived outside the Tower of Babel.
Lu Yu got out of the car and looked up at the behemoth in front of him, the shock in his heart was incomparable.
In Kyushu, the tallest building he had ever seen was the Four Saints Chaotianque, which also pierced through the clouds, but it was not as amazing as the building in front of him.
Because although it looks shocking, it can still be regarded as a mortal thing. And this Tower of Babel, at first glance, makes people feel like it has broken through the heavens and the earth, leading to a world, like a mysterious bridge between the two worlds!
In fact, it can indeed be called a bridge between the two worlds, because it serves as a gateway to another world!
The guards were busy carrying their luggage down, and Lu Yu was led by Xu Chu to the entrance of the Tower of Babel, where a short, black-armored general stood with his back straight.
In fact, even though he was straight, his height defect was not concealed, and at first glance, he was also very short.
Xu Chu, who was more than two meters tall, came in front of him and immediately formed a stark contrast.
However, Lu Yu didn't underestimate this little man, because he had seen this guy!
Like Xu Shu, he also saw it in the Yunzhou Treasure Appraisal Club, the guy who is responsible for guarding the last line of defense of the baby!
With a serious and calm look, even if Xu Chu came to him, he didn't show any other expressions.
However, when he saw Lu Yu, his face immediately changed.
It's not that he recognized Lu Yu or anything, although he faintly had the shadow of his appearance in his previous life, but in his previous life, Lu Yu didn't let him see his appearance.
After Xu Chu said something vaguely to him, the short man with a calm face immediately came to Lu Yu's side, bowed slightly and saluted: "Li Dian of the Demon Spirit Clan, I have seen the devil." ”
There was a hint of respect in his tone, but more than that, he was neither humble nor arrogant, probably because of that Cao Cao, he had such a good face towards Lu Yu.
Lu Yu is not a person who doesn't know what to do, so he returned a salute and said, "Junior Cao Chong, I have seen my seniors." ”
No matter whether he is in this demon clan or not, the necessary etiquette is always indispensable, and Cao Cao is not really his father, he doesn't want to get any light, so it is understandable to call himself a junior.
According to the cultivation calculation, Li Dian can indeed be called Lu Yu's predecessor, so although Li Dian was surprised by the humble etiquette of the demon in front of him, he was not too surprised.
After the two saluted each other, Lu Yu began to go through the necessary customs clearance procedures under the leadership of Li Dian.
This is not something that anyone can enter, after all, it is difficult to build, and it is related to the situation of the demon clan in Kyushu, if a guy who is full of evil goes out, wouldn't it be an insult to the face of the demon clan?
In fact, when there was no Babel Tower, the demons were already controlling the demons who entered and exited Kyushu, the purpose was unknown, but it was quite effective.
At least when Lu Yu was still in Kyushu, he hadn't heard much about the demon clan endangering the world. Before he was seventeen years old, he didn't even know that there were demons still in the land of Kyushu.
Lu Yu estimated that this must be because the ancestors of the demon clan had already considered attacking Kyushu in the future, otherwise it would be impossible to control this kind of thing.
After all, the Terrans who unite to resist foreign enemies are better than the Terrans who are wavering and even have people applauding the demons.
Although the customs clearance procedures are cumbersome, for the sake of Lu Yu's identity, it is not too grinding, and after about a stick of incense, it has been handled.
So the group said goodbye to Li Dianzhong's guards and officially entered the Tower of Babel.
The space on the first floor of the Tower of Babel is very large, about the size of a classroom in Lu Yu's previous life, without any furnishings, only a continuous upward wooden staircase.
The wooden staircase is made of the same material as the Tower of Babel, and is made of a strange wood that resembles steel in color, but it is indeed made of wood, and when you step on it, a sense of calm spreads from the soles of your feet to your body.
When Xu Chu was going up the stairs, Lu Yu also took a special look and found that although he was a big fat man, he was also caught calmly by the stairs without the slightest tremor.
This is not unexpected, if it is so simple to be shaken, it will not cost the demon clan a lot.
There is a glass lamp lit at a distance inside the Tower of Babel, so although there is no sunlight shining closely, it is not so difficult to see the way.
The group continued to climb up the stairs built against the tower wall, and they didn't know how long they walked, and finally came across a more peculiar place.
At the edge of the staircase, there is an open space that seems to be a place for people to rest, like a high-altitude hanging board.
It's just on it, and it's scary to shake it. However, there is a guardrail in this clearing, and if you don't die by yourself, you can't fall down at all.
This place should already be in the sky, Lu Yu looked down at the handrail of the clearing, and the bottom of the tower had become a small dot. Fortunately, he didn't have a fear of heights, otherwise this hope would have made his eyes glaze gold.
Although they were not tired, they still rested here for a while before returning to the road.
Time passed, because I couldn't see the sunlight from the outside world, so I didn't know what time it was, Lu Yu and his party had been hurrying.
Xu Chu took the lead and turned his head upward, Lu Yu followed, and followed by more than a dozen god-transforming masters carrying the salute, the speed was not very fast, but it was not slow.
At least it's faster than a normal person.
Unconsciously, some strange smoke appeared around it, and these fogs were white, floating in the middle of the staircase and the tower, and I don't know how it formed.
Although Lu Yu was curious, he didn't want to disrupt the pick-up at his feet, and he still had to think about how to escape next, so he was silent.
Naturally, you have to wait until you get out of this tower, otherwise there will be nowhere to run in this tower.
I don't know how this tower was built, obviously I didn't find any strange structures, but it was able to stand to such a height, if it was replaced by the Earth period in the previous life, Lu Yu would not believe that he could build a high tower inserted into the clouds with just "wood".
But in this Kyushu world, it's not something too shocking.
The white mist filled the air, slowly growing and growing, eventually obscuring the rest of the tower, leaving only a spiraling staircase for the demons to pass through.
At a glance, there was a white place, and only the stairs under his feet were of a different color, which gave Lu Yu a strange feeling of being left behind and independent.
However, that was just his delusion, because he wasn't the only one here
The physique of the people who practice martial arts is amazing, and their endurance is not comparable to ordinary people, plus there is an open space for people to rest every once in a while, and they are not too tired.
However, although I am not physically tired, I am mentally a little tired.
Fortunately, the mental exhaustion did not last long.
After they had been on the road for an unknown amount of time, passing by many resting places, they finally saw the exit of this tower!
