923 Gate of Space
The edge of the illusion of the Mirror Realm is this funnel-shaped irregular fan-shaped area. Above the head is a dark foggy sky and suppressed by a force field that prohibits space. It is said that after climbing to the extreme, there is a bone-chilling nothingness.
Under the feet is the extremely black and hard soil. It is hard to tell what kind of material it is, but as long as you dig it down, you will soon see bubbling black water.
And the surroundings are endless phantoms of ferocious beasts. Of course, some special individuals among them, after being attacked and dispersed, will quickly gather the surrounding benevolent energy to form physical ferocious beasts with the strength of a Dawn-level wizard to attack the intruders. Violent attack.
And behind this trench, which is 100 meters wide and no more than tens of meters deep, is a section of the city wall built in the mountain that is covered by fog. There is a huge city gate in the middle of the city wall, and there A distorted force field appeared in the range of the door, and it was impossible to see clearly what was inside from a distance.
Before everyone leaped into the trench, the handsome Cheney gave a special warning. "The black water flowing in these trenches is highly poisonous that can corrode the protective force field, so don't touch it, otherwise the consequences will be very serious!"
Both Raymond and Willard already understood the taboos in the Mirror Realm, but Cheney's repeated exhortations were also out of good intentions, so Raymond nodded and smiled to express his gratitude.
And Willard, who was wearing a hunting suit and seemed to have returned to normal, chatted with Cheney a lot of common topics along the way, but knowing that he was about to enter the periphery of the Mirror Realm, he put aside his previous curiosity. Xin, obediently followed Raymond's side.
After crossing the ditch in front of Heng Tan and passing through the city gate shielded by the twisting force field, everyone has entered the real periphery of the Mirror Realm.
Like a labyrinth dug out of the mountain, behind the city gate are seven straight passages lined up side by side. And at the end of the passage is a relatively narrow cave, inside which are distributed six space doors sunken on the rock wall in an umbrella shape!
Because it is impossible to release any exploratory spells, even the puppets will lose their senses when they are tens of meters away from the main body. Because everyone has plenty of time, they are divided into two groups to be on the safe side, and they are checked in order from left to right. After going to the first six passages on the right, after confirming that there was no change from before, we came to the end of the rightmost passage at the request of Raymond.
He followed instructions all the way, but after entering here, Cheney still couldn't help asking questions. "Lord Raymond, the locations where the six mirror teleportation arrive here are all resource points. There is no place to explore..."
"There are only ten days in total. According to my plan, I will arrive at the predetermined location within seven days and then crack it..."
Raymond only spoke half of what he said, and Cheney knew that he was a bit rash, so he stopped talking, and Casper, who was strict with words, stood by Raymond's side and waited. Not the slightest hint of curiosity or impatience.
The six space gates embedded in the mountain are like six mirrors gathered with space energy. Especially when someone stands within three meters of this space door. You can also see your own reflection on this water curtain-like space door, the closer you are, the higher the clarity.
Willard, who is very curious about this kind of interesting space door, has already yelled and expressed his emotions about it before, but he naturally lost interest after seeing too much, and stepped into it directly according to Raymond's instructions. the one he chose.
Following Raymond and the others who entered one after another, they woke up from the dizziness transmitted from the space. Then entered a very strange space.
It seems to be the back garden of a certain building. In front of everyone blocked by a white fence, there is a large area of green plants. The faint fragrance is also lingering around, although there is no light source. But everyone has a kind of warmth that is illuminated by the warm sun.
But Cheney, who had a thoughtful expression on his face after entering, quickly exclaimed. "This, this is... this is a mature Hidden Light Flower, it's amazing!"
After shouting, Cheney, who knew this area well, excitedly pulled Willard over the white fence, bent down and began to collect the hidden light flowers all over the ground, only Casper did not move, Still guarding Raymond's side and maintaining vigilance.
Raymond, who didn't pay attention to his eyes, noticed that the door of space behind him had disappeared, and the door of space leaving here was located at the end of the garden, embedded in the wall of the wooden building, and There are as many as four.
Raymond, who was pointing at Casper, walked directly to the four exiting space doors, and after carefully checking the route he had chosen before, he raised his voice and shouted. "Stop collecting, you need to leave immediately!"
Willard, who stopped collecting immediately after hearing the sound, ran to Raymond's side immediately, while Cheney, who was a little stunned, hesitated for a while, then ran over quickly, but still complained regretfully. "It's such a pity... These Hidden Light Flowers are a key resource for making war potions..."
After entering this area, Raymond with an hourglass appeared in his hand, but he ignored Cheney's complaints, and explained while watching Casper who had been following him on guard. "From here on, please act according to my request, time is also a trap here..."
Casper, who didn't express anything, nodded to understand, but Cheney, who stood beside him, blushed, looking a little embarrassed.
Lei Meng, who didn't say any more, stared at the hourglass in his hand, waited for a while, and then directly stepped into the door of space beside him.
The people who followed Lei Meng entered one after another, but this time they came to a small courtyard, which was very simple and old. There were not many things in the courtyard, and it looked very dilapidated. The door to the space to leave is also revealed on the wall.
There was no possibility for research or excavation. Raymond, who started counting with the hourglass, came directly to the space gate on the left side of the courtyard and began to wait.
Then it continued to teleport, and after two consecutive times, everyone appeared in a cave-like space. The cave with fluorite was only a hundred and ten square meters. After the space door behind disappeared, according to the rule of decreasing There is only one space door left to leave.
Four consecutive teleportations made Cheney, who had been puffing her cheeks a little resentful, finally couldn't bear it anymore, but she found that Willard had never had any dissatisfaction, and her companion Casper had always been strictly protecting her. Raymond's principle is not to express an opinion but to remain vigilant; he hesitates but sighs but does not open his mouth to question.
But Willard, who was still a bit out of character, started to close his eyes when he saw Raymond sitting cross-legged in front of the space door, and started to ask questions in surprise. "Hey! Do you think it takes a long time to wait in this empty cave?"
Raymond, who was carefully checking the upcoming route, opened his eyes and laughed when he heard the sound. "This is just the beginning, and there are still many waiting times like this..."
Although Willard, who was full of suspicion, didn't understand, he stopped asking questions and turned his gaze to the cave he was in.
It seems that the walls of the caves in the deep mountains are very rough, and those fluorites, which seem to be light sources, are mixed in ordinary rocks, and they can still be obtained from the rock walls after vigorous knocking. .
The fluorite, which is as bright as a diamond, has a variety of shapes but various colors. Willard, who was interested in this, couldn't stop. But Cheney, who was bored, saw that Raymond had no objection, so he started to follow Willard. digging.
However, Casper, who had been guarding Raymond's side and kept vigilant, issued a warning for the first time after noticing that the depth the two dug had reached more than ten centimeters. "Don't dig, that kind of black water will be produced in the wall more than half a meter away, the loss outweighs the gain!"
Willard and Cheney, who had each harvested a handful of fluorite, stopped in surprise, and after a while, Raymond also issued a reminder that he could enter the door of space, and was the first to step in. Among them... (To be continued..)
