Chapter 74 The City in the Sky
Link had a good time with his family this time, which made his family ready. The scale of the Demon Ant Tide is still small now. Even if the Kingdom of Murphy can't hold on, the Holy Empire and the Dragon Empire adjacent to the Kingdom of Murphy can still hold on.
Smaller countries are all buffer zones for big countries. These nobles of big countries are just barriers to the royal family.
If a noble has something to do, most of the situation needs to be solved by himself. If the royal family needs to solve it for you every time, then what else does the royal family have to do?
If even the two giants, the Holy Empire and the Dragon Empire, could not hold on, Link said that he might not be able to hold on. However, this possibility is not great. It is natural that the two empires can stand for thousands of years. There is no shortage of legendary masters among the royal families of the two countries.
After the meal, Link used meditation to restore magic power, then a portal opened and went to the Yellow Sand World again.
Unexpectedly, Lucy followed in from the portal. It was not a waste to have two people in one portal at a time.
After Lucy came in, she stayed in the air to calculate the magic coordinates here.
Link was not so idle. He went back to rest for a few hours, and meditated for two hours, and the demon ant that had been cleared near this natural passage appeared again.
The combat power of demon ants is just that. It may be very dangerous to ordinary people, but when facing the same number of troops, they are all monsters that can be easily wiped out. The problem is that there are too many demon ants and they cannot be killed.
Link had just exploded several groups of demon ants, and Lucy threw a sea of fire in the air, blocking the in and out of the demon ants near the natural portal.
After throwing the sea of fire, Lucy opened a portal herself and said before leaving: "I'll leave first, call me if you have something to do."
"Thanks."
This continuously burning sea of fire is still very useful, temporarily blocking the in and out of the portal demon ant.
Link killed several flying demon ants. After offering sacrifices, Link flew to the sky. According to His Highness Helena's research, the air flow was carried out in a relatively low space in the atmosphere. When you go to the space above, there will be no wind and no sandstorms. At this high altitude, the field of view is very wide.
After Link flew higher and higher, he finally flew out of the troposphere occupied by sand and dust.
After the view was widened, Link found that there were many mountains flying in the sky here. Some were like the half-plane below Helena's point, but there seemed to be artificial buildings on the sky mountain range here. It was not as desolate as the half-plane of His Highness Helena.
Link flew towards a floating mountain, and hit the protective cover of the floating mountain outside the floating mountain. In this way, Link became more sure that this was the half-plane of the legendary wizard.
However, since they have all hit the protective cover, the legendary wizard inside should have already had a sense.
Sure enough, Link didn't wait long, an old mage flew out. After seeing Link, he asked a few words and found that Link looked like he couldn't understand. The old mage added a language to himself before continuing, "Hey, boy, where did he come from?"
Link said straight: "Another world."
The old master: "I think so, I can't understand the local dialect. I can only come from outside. I have come here, come in and sit in. I also want to know some things outside."
"OK."
The old mage opened the semi-plane protective cover and brought Link in.
The floating mountain surface in the semi-plane is very large, and the outer periphery is a bit desolate. Not long after flying, I saw endless streams of people and traffic. Above this floating city, it turned out to be a city built in the sky.
The old master asked halfway, "The city there is not a handful built in the air."
Link: "Cities are of course built on the ground."
The old mage: "In the past, our city was also built on the ground, but a thousand years ago, there were two magic geniuses in our world. One was Mosey and the other was Rayley. These two had amazing magical talents. They could always develop magic that others could not imagine, and their power was greater than the other."
Speaking of this, the old mage fell from the air and Link landed with him. The two entered the city. The old mage took Link to a tea shop. There were not many customers at the tea shop at this time, and the two of them had booked a tea shop and didn't spend much money.
The old mage sat down and drank tea and continued, "The two of them each had many followers and disciples. Finally one day, they fought for the title of the world's strongest magician."
Speaking of this, the old master asked, "Since you have been to this world, you have seen the demon ants on the ground."
Link: "I killed a lot, but there are so many demon ants that are like I can't kill them all."
The old master: "Actually, there were demon ants tens of thousands of years ago. They were not so big or so fierce before. They were just a link in the food chain in this world. They were scavengers. Even monsters could eat these demon ants. You wouldn't think we can't deal with demon ants."
Link: "I see so many cities flying in the sky, that is to say, every Sky City has a legendary wizard. If everyone joins hands, it should be fine to deal with the demon ants."
The old master: "That's right, it's not that everyone can't deal with the demon ants, but they don't want to go down at all. I've said that Mosey and Reilly. The evil they committed will last at least a hundred or decades before it will dissipate.
Those two guys, one developed fission magic, and the other developed fusion magic. During the war, the two of them fought with their disciples and followers on the mainland, and cities were burned into glass. Do you know what glass is?"
Link: "I know, if you burn sand with a temperature that can melt steel, you can produce glass. Glass in our world is quite expensive, and they are all luxury goods that can only be made by magicians. Nobles, royal families, and churches will buy these glasses as windows."
"Hehe." The old mage laughed and continued, "Cities, one by one, turned into glass ruins, and ordinary people were instantly vaporized by high temperatures. Even if they added a bunch of magical protection to themselves, they could not last for a few seconds. During that time, the earth always shone with light ten thousand times brighter than the sun.
We useless legendary wizards, all of us, fled into our half plane and avoided this disaster. In the past, those demon ants escaped a disaster just because they lived underground. Later, because of the fission magic or fusion magic, these demon ants changed and became huge and bloodthirsty. The remaining things on the earth were eaten up by the demon ants."
Link: "Where are those two?"
