Chapter 1029 The Interlude of Longing (Previous)
Let the White Bull of Heaven take a few steps back.
When the supreme power was divided between the two magicians, the Dream Ladder also ushered in a promotion ceremony that was destined to become the beginning of history. On the third floor of the chaotic and chaotic virtual realm, four female sorcerers are about to start a new legend of secret poison.
The ceremony in which Ash and the stars drank from the Holy Grail was broadcast live in the entire virtual realm, and Freya and the others who were on the ladder of dreams could naturally see it.
Even because the Ruby Mountain is at the top of the Staircase of Dreams, they can be said to be the best audience seats to witness with their own eyes Ash, with the help of Rose and the Silver Lantern, forcibly took back half of the Holy Grail from the stars, and with the help of mortals The body competes with the god for food.
Seeing this scene, the four of them had different expressions.
The one who was most worried was Freya. She seemed to be able to feel Ash's mood through a layer of emptiness, and her eyes were filled with mist from sadness;
An Nan was so excited that she stood on tiptoes and looked at Ya Xiu's back with eyes full of admiration;
Tamashi clenched her shield with a look of displeasure on her face, secretly hating why she was not on the battlefield;
Shiffrin calmly looked up at Ash's coronation and clapped softly with her hands.
When this unprecedented festival was over and everything returned to normal, Freya breathed a long sigh of relief, her tense mood suddenly relaxed, and she collapsed limply on the ground, "Ash is fine, that's great..."
"The magic that transcends the boundaries of the God Lord is the highest... The magicians who are now qualified to step into the seventh level of the virtual realm, apart from Fanxing, is Ya Xiu." An Nan's eyes flashed with an inexplicable light: "He will become the most powerful in history in the future. The magician..."
"He is already on the battlefield beyond my reach." Tamashi was full of unwillingness, stamped her feet bitterly, and sighed: "When can I catch up with him?"
Shiffrin squatted next to Freya and asked with a smile: "Do you think it's really good? Ash is going to return to reality now."
"Of course, it will be safe if he returns to reality!" Freya said immediately: "After all, he has...has..."
Veela was stuck, and she suddenly realized what was waiting for Ash in reality.
"On one side is Sword Princess who has been waiting for nearly half a year and is full of love and longing. On the other side is Ash, who has chased from the blood moon to the stars and has gone through thousands of hardships to entangle his beloved."
The little bat leaned close to the Veela's ear and whispered like a devil: "They can finally meet in reality. It will definitely be like the grassland on a midsummer night. Thunder from the sky stirs up fire and all the grass will burn. As soon as they meet , they will definitely hug and kiss each other, right?”
"Woooo..."
"And then everyone is busy, so it's normal to take a bath together, right?"
"Woooo..."
"We must sleep together at night. After all, there are endless topics to talk about and endless love words to say. When the love is strong and they are in love, they will definitely do what you are thinking about now, Freya, right?"
"I, I was thinking about very pure things!" Freya lowered her head, clamped her legs together, pursed her lips and sobbed: "Shiffrin, please stop talking..."
The corners of Shiffrin's mouth twitched, which meant she couldn't find a mirror for a while, otherwise she really wanted Freya to see her expression. She was obviously saying that the person she liked would have the most voluptuous love with others, but while this Veela was crying with sadness, her expression actually looked a little yearning, and her skin turned an ambiguous pink color.
Although she knew that the Veela was broken, every time the Veela refreshed her knowledge - even if the heroine in her fantasy was not herself, the Veela could actually get excited!
She originally wanted to use this method to make the Veela feel sick, but now it seems that it only increased the Veela's spell casting materials...
"Xueyin, haven't you given up yet?" An Nan said with a smile: "No matter what you do, it can only increase Veela's favorability towards that guy. When he puts a ring on Veela, Veela's favorability will increase." It’s been locked.”
"But that's the ring prepared by Luoxin himself!" Shifflin said angrily: "What's so touching about this!"
Freya protected her ring tightly and said weakly: "But he also gave me a love sword..."
"You don't even think about how many magic spirits you gave him! He only sent one in return!"
"I am happy when I give him a gift, and I am happy when he gives me a gift. This is double happiness!"
Freya summoned the Love Sword Skill Spirit, and all her sadness disappeared at this moment, and she said with longing: "Now that he has returned to reality, he might come to the Blood Moon to find me... We will meet soon! "
Shiffrin hugged her head and leaned back to make an artistic pose like an arch. Only by twisting her body in this way could she relieve the pain in her head.
Even the little bat's voice was trembling: "It's obviously none of my business, so why does it seem like I'm the only one who's getting hurt...Zi Yuan, Black Crow, don't you feel unhappy in your hearts?!"
"I'm okay." An Nan put his hands behind his waist and said with a proud smile: "Anyway, I have already got the first kiss of the most powerful magic in the future!"
"Why should I be unhappy?" Tamashi said calmly, "Everyone has their own persistence and beliefs. I can physically destroy my enemies, but I will not question other people's persistence."
Everyone glanced at Tamashi and thought that this heavily armed Black Crow might be the most competitive player among them. But it's not a big problem, because the love rival that Black Crow has to deal with first is not them, but Miss Sword Girl, who has almost no flaws except for her strong possessiveness.
"Okay, okay, let's continue exploring." Shiffrin regained her breath and said angrily: "Now they can be promoted to demigods and enter hell at any time, and we are not even legends yet. I see how you can chase him. ”
"Why can't you catch up?"
An Nan asked strangely: "Even if he is promoted to demigod, as long as he does not seek refuge in the Kingdom of Heaven and become an angel, then he can only wander around the land of the Six Kingdoms. Apart from that, he can't go anywhere."
Shiffrin was startled and murmured: "Yes. Strange, why did I think you couldn't catch up with him just now?"
"Maybe it's because of the Dream Staircase." Tamashi glanced at the smoke and fantasy colors around him: "Everything here is chaotic, and the spirit may be affected."
They were on an ivory white staircase. It was said to be a staircase, but the area was too large, almost the same as the white earth. It would take a minute to reach the edge even with full flight, and then they could find the stairs to the next level.
It sounds very simple. Wouldn't it be better to just fly there? But the biggest threat to the Dream Ladder comes from the lingering color fog that lingers around it. The higher you go, the higher the density of the fog. If you dare to fly five meters above the ground, you will crash directly into the fog.
The fog will pull the consciousness of the magician into a dream. There are many restrictive affixes in the dream. The magician must defeat the enemies inside to obtain the loot in the fog. Yes, the fog is actually an alienated version of the dream bubble.
It stands to reason that this new map, which is not much different from the old version, should be able to adapt to the new map quickly. However, because the dream ladder was born too short, all links are unstable, so there are various accidents, such as the sudden appearance of fog, or the difficulty of the fog suddenly becomes outrageously high.
More importantly, the magician can return to reality at any time in the dream bubble, it just takes time to count down. But if he is pulled into the color mist, the magician cannot return to reality as long as the mist is not completely destroyed.
If the magician is defeated by the mist, his soul will even be completely swallowed by the mist!
In other words, the magician no longer has the privilege of leaving the field with serious injuries on the Dream Ladder. Once he fails, he may die completely!
In addition, Dream Ladder also has problems such as time disorder and mana recovery speed that is sometimes fast and sometimes slow. Sometimes after ten hours of exploring the dream ladder, reality only passes for one minute; and the reverse is also common.
Under the influence of various factors, Holy Domain magicians are basically unwilling to explore the unstable ladder of dreams. Only those magicians who are bold and self-reliant on their strength and can't wait will take risks.
Freya and the others are of this type. After all, no matter how difficult the Fantasy Mist is, they can still get through it as a team of four. On the contrary, waiting made them unbearable. Except for An Nan and Shiffrin who were satisfied with their current strength, Tamashi and Freya were eager to be promoted to legend immediately.
Even if it's just a little bit shorter... Even if it's just a little bit closer...
At least I can stand by your side with confidence the next time we meet.
Pushing the red-haired swordsman aside.
Freya and others gathered their emotions and continued to explore the ladder of dreams.
But after working together to digest the fog, the female sorcerers looked at each other, and Shiffrin said: "Is your secret poison also..."
"Yeah." An Nan's face looked a little ugly: "The Secret Poison of Colorless Dream has lost its effectiveness."
Just now, they discovered that the eclipse dream was completely ineffective and could not convert the phantom magic power. Naturally, they knew this secret poison from a copy of Ash's diary. Although they had never seen it in person, Ash's credibility outside of relationships was very high, so they were directly infected by this secret poison.
Even if the distant airspace ends and the Dream Staircase is born, the secret poison of the Eclipse Dream has not disappeared, which shows that one can still escape from the dream of the Source Angel to the Ruby Mountain through the method of 'waking up from the dream'. Now that the secret poison is ineffective, it is obviously because of the complete fall of the source angel, which makes the secret poison no longer feasible.
"What should we do..." Freya cried with a sad face, "The Colorless Dream is useless, so how can we climb Ruby Mountain?"
Shiffrin said: "Raising the realm of magic to the legendary level?"
"I'm so stupid, I won't be able to advance even in ten years!" Veela bit her lower lip, "I don't know how many children Ash will have by then..."
Oh, if other psychics knew that you could reach the legendary level in ten years, they might not want to convert their race into a Veela.
But Shiffrin was even more curious about another point: "Can't a Holy Domain magician give birth to a child?"
"I hope to be in the best condition... Well." Freya's eyes were shining, full of longing: "He is a legend, so I must at least be a legend, right? It's best to be a demigod, or a god master. If I can become a magician, The law is supreme..."
If there was a list of "Outrageous Reasons to Become the Supreme Magician" in this world, Veela's reason would definitely be number one, the little bat thought to himself.
"In addition to improving the level of magic, we really have no other way." An Nan pondered: "Although I asked the gospel, the dream ladder also has a path to the origin of Ruby Mountain, but the gospel only knows that "Ruby Mountain is here" Top of the Dream Ladder", no more information. "
Ruby Mountain is at the top of the dream ladder. You can guess it just by thinking about it. The problem is that the dream ladder extends infinitely, and the road is full of fog. It is extremely difficult to climb several stairs in ordinary sanctuaries, let alone climb all the dream ladder. ?
Freya and the others have also seen the Golden Fish Secret Poison and the Colorful Tail Secret Poison, and know that the path to origin is definitely not a special area that can be reached by normal means. All the information on the paper is a puzzle. Until the answer is solved, all efforts are in vain.
So they knew they were doomed - they were the first generation of explorers on the Ladder of Dreams, with no legacy information to discover and no way to follow the path of their predecessors.
If they want to follow the path of origin, they must discover new secret poisons from scratch and become pioneers for future generations to pursue!
This matter is so difficult that it makes people feel numb. It is better to delve into the realm of magic honestly. At least there are achievable expectations. As long as the research on secret poisons does not find the only correct direction, it will be a waste of life. abyss.
You must know that their previous promotions were so smooth, all thanks to Ash's gift, but this time even Ash can't help them.
Just when the female sorcerers fell into despair and silence, the Dream Staircase suddenly sounded a rumbling vibration, and countless golden threads of liquid dripped from the sky above the mist, piercing the white steps as if to sew the sky and the earth together.
Freya and the others are not surprised, because the dream ladder is not yet stable, so new rules are often added. Although there are risks, you may get unexpected gains. For example, when the law of soul penetrated, An Nan not only stole part of the inheritance of the ghost prophet, but also constructed a compound miracle of soul guns with the help of the virtual realm. One shot into the soul'!
This is also the benefit of trying the early adopter version. There are dangers and opportunities everywhere.
"Soul? Heart? No, this is...longing."
Shiffrin touched the golden thread and sniffed it closely: "This is the smell of longing...but does this world have the law of longing?"
Others thought about how to take advantage of this opportunity, but the opportunity soon hit them - as the golden thread tightened, a gap opened in the white earth, revealing the world hidden below!
Can the dream ladder be destroyed? ?
The four Freyas looked at each other in confusion. They all tried to attack the stairs with all their strength, but they didn't leave even a trace. Naturally, they never thought of exploring the bottom of the stairs. But now it seems that there are areas on the ladder of dreams that they cannot explore.
So, are they going in?
The four of them looked at each other, and as Freya and Tamashi nodded, An Nan, who was not happy, and Shiffrin, who was hesitant, could only follow. Black Crow may not care, but Veela... they can't rest assured.
At this time, the gap has begun to shrink. There is no more time to think, and the female magicians jump directly in. But the long fall they imagined did not happen. They just took off on the spot and fell back to the ground very easily.
Appearing in front of them, there is still a long staircase.
It's just different from before. Not only is there no mist of illusion in front of him, but the whole world has turned into reverse color. It's not a loss of color, but a reverse color of black turning into white, red turning into blue. If the ladder of dreams is colorful, then this place is uncomfortable.
"Look below." Shiffrin said.
They looked down, and the ground was like a mirror, reflecting a mirror world with opposite colors - they saw an opposite version of themselves appearing in the ladder of dreams.
"If this is the reverse color ladder, then the reverse color ladder and the dream ladder are mirror images of each other. If we jump in, it is equivalent to exchanging places with the reverse color mirror image." An Nan squatted down, and the reverse color An Nan on the other side of the mirror He also squatted down: "The biggest difference between Anti-Color and Dream Ladder is that there is no illusionary fog that blocks progress, and..."
They all raised their heads and stared at the red-red mountain at the end of the stairs.
"We can climb directly to Ruby Mountain here!" Shiffrin murmured: "We have found the origin of the dream ladder!"
