Chapter 36 Star Fortress!

Star Fortress.

Under normal circumstances, only the strongholds of the following three races can be encountered in the boundless astral world.

They are the githyanki, the githzerai, and the ancient mind flayers. It was mentioned a long time ago that in the distant ancient times, mind flayers once created a brilliant cross-plane civilization, and used the astral world as a transit point to control and enslave a large number of other races. The duergar and githyanki were victims of the mind flayer empire, and were even forced to acquire psionic natural abilities during their long servitude.

The mind flayers used psionic energy (also known as psionic energy) to develop an extremely powerful interstellar civilization.

They are alien species from other worlds, and it is even said that the mind flayers who arrived here were originally in an astral ship. The destruction of the mind flayer empire allowed the githyanki to inherit a lot of valuable knowledge and abilities. Compared with the psionic talents acquired by the duergar, the githyanki have to obtain more valuable knowledge. They learned how to build astral fortresses, learned very high-end forging techniques, and adapted to living in the astral environment. They were as evil as bandits, using the astral as a springboard to plunder resources from other worlds.

Githyanki figures can appear on any plane.

Their group is based on the astral fortress, and may enter all the worlds they can enter.

Githyanki love to plunder.

But if the target is strong enough, they will also learn to trade fairly. In the lower planes, there are evil githyanki who use things from the astral world to make various transactions with yugoloths.

As for the other kind of githzerai, the way of monks is prevalent among them, and they have not dealt with humans for many years.

The githzerai pursue the mysteries of the heart.

They believe that the deepest part of the soul hides the true self and power, and thus they highly respect the path of monks internally. They are a race with the most monks inside. They are sworn enemies with the Githyanki, but unfortunately there are not many of them. , the probability of encountering them is very small. (Note: Only certain ancient monasteries in the Eastern Kingdoms still retain ties to the githzerai.)

………………

Hearing Sauron's words, Gloria and the Fallen Witch suddenly became nervous.

A well-known point!

That is, the astral world is full of various dangers, and there is not enough order here, so it is very normal to encounter battles and plunders when exploring the astral world.

The star realm is really too big!

Most of the creatures living in this dangerous environment are very unfriendly. Whether it is the astral fortress of the mind flayers or the astral fortress of the githyanki, they don't mind encountering other astral explorers with their own strength. When the situation is sufficient, unceremoniously snatch the other party, or capture the other party as your own slave.

There are no laws in the astral world.

Both mind flayers and githyanki love to enslave other creatures, and regard slaves as an important part of their wealth.

"They're approaching us!"

When Sauron first saw the steel fortress walking in the silver-white quicksand, his expression was quite surprised and curious, because the probability of encountering githyanki in the astral world is very low, and those who encounter their steel fortress The probability is even smaller. These steel fortresses are wandering in the endless star realms. Unless they are wanderers who wander in the star realm all year round, the chance of encountering them is almost the same as encountering a holy person by chance in a year of turmoil. In general, encountering a githyanki Iron Fortress is not a good thing, because it means you may face the plunder of an army of githyanki.

Obviously one point!

When Sauron discovered the steel fortress of the Githyanki, they also discovered this small floating tower in the astral world.

Githyanki are born with psychic powers.

A powerful psychic field hangs over their steel fortress, like the psychic realm of the high priest, and in the dark astral plane the githyanki can detect any energy fluctuations of sufficient strength nearby.

This is convenient for them to avoid danger and find the target of plunder!

No doubt about it.

In the perception of the Githyanki, this floating tower floating alone in the astral world is considered by them to be a target that can be snatched.

Under normal circumstances.

Encountering such a floating tower in the astral world is at most one or two archmages of the legendary realm.

Many "star wanderers" like to use floating towers as their bases to explore and search in the endless star realms. The bold and reckless githyanki often attack Those astral explorers.

Under normal circumstances, if this kind of plunder is successful, the githyanki can obtain a lot of wealth!

"It seems that they regard us as objects that can be plundered."

A smile could not help but emerge from the corner of Sauron's mouth, and he said to Gloria in a rather teasing manner: "They are speeding up and approaching us."

"have to say."

"These githyanki will be disappointed next time."

If Sauron is not there.

Just relying on the strength of Goliath and the Fallen Witch, suddenly encountering a githyanki steel fortress in the astral world, the situation may still be in danger.

But if you add another [medium divine power] god's body to sit in charge.

Then the situation is completely different!

Sauron didn't feel nervous at all. Instead, he was interested in seeing how these githyankis planned to rob him. Their robbery style had spread throughout the multiverse, and perhaps the people above were gearing up to do something big. one game.

"You are really calm."

Gloria glared at Sauron angrily, and then said seriously: "The energy protection of the floating tower is not stable, and the githyanki cannot destroy the construction of the floating tower."

"Otherwise it would be difficult for us to send it back."

"And the [Elemental Furnace] is also inside. The current research on the floating tower has already dropped about five million Jindelers on it."

"If the githyanki break it!..."

"Humph."

"When the time comes, you can figure it out!..."

Sauron had a relaxed expression at first, but after hearing Gloria's words, he suddenly became a little nervous. He wasn't nervous that he couldn't beat these githyanki, but he was worried about what to do if the floating tower was broken.

With the current financial situation of Modo City, it is absolutely impossible to spend such a large sum of money to rebuild the floating tower.

Besides.

The Floating Tower is now the lifeblood of Goliath and the Fallen Witch. If it is really destroyed by the Githyanki, Sauron's childhood will not be as happy as it is now.
