Chapter 113 Pyramid
Following the direction Camilla pointed, everyone looked up. In the blue sky above the white clouds, a thin, S-shaped black crack is clearly visible. Dots of starlight are faintly visible in the cracks, and a triangular object is approaching from the distance.
"No matter what it is, call everyone to be alert, and then notify Wadsworth." Hazel gave the order decisively, and immediately restored her heroic paladin demeanor. "Mike, you are weak now. Find a place to hide quickly."
"I can take care of myself and help you. But the most important thing is, you do your thing and don't be influenced by me." Zhao Mai touched the puppy lying next to him and showed a reassuring smile to Hazel: "Besides, there is a food reserve to protect me."
The puppy barked twice and puffed out its chest. It is wearing brand new crocodile leather armor, like a loyal guard beside the king. This was a gift from Wadsworth (the body), and two pockets were specially added to help Zhao Mai store things.
Hazel looked at the puppy, smiled, and said, "The name you gave this dog is really weird!"
She also knew that this was not the time to be intimate with each other, so she turned around and left while holding on to the hilt of her sword. Zhao Mai waited for her to leave, grabbed the tree trunk next to him with his hands, and slowly pulled himself up from the ground.
"Oh, I really played too hard before, but I didn't expect that I actually hurt the core of the force." Zhao Mai said helplessly. He dug deep into the information hidden in his bloodline and triggered the druid's natural transformation ability in advance, but his force level could not support such a move. The result is that the body structure becomes very unstable, and it can only slowly recover after most of the cells are renewed. At this time, neither positive energy nor the force of nature can help. Even if Wadsworth hadn't controlled the mangroves and reduced the concentration of the Force, Zhao Mai would have likely experienced atavism, such as growing a tail or even an extra set of scales.
Even after Wadsworth's care, the entire recovery process would take about a hundred days. The only good news is that Zhao Mai will be able to move normally in twenty days and will no longer be in this sick and sick state. But he still can't meditate in the Force, and his use of spells and spells must be reduced. Of course, he has not lost his ability to cast spells, and there is no problem if he wants to use spells now, but that will greatly worsen his condition and may leave him with unrecoverable trouble.
In order to minimize the natural force passing through his body, he even needs to eat and drink to a minimum. If according to Wadsworth's idea, it would be great if Zhao Mai could learn to hibernate. He looks so weak now because he is hungry. This is a terrible punishment for Zhao Mai. He also learned a lesson, "I can't mess around anymore, I'm going to kill myself!"
"You are the only one left with my fighting power now." Zhao Mai lifted the Megalodon onto his shoulders, but staggered under its weight and grabbed the tree trunk to stand firm. Reserve grain touched Zhao Mai's feet with his front paws, as if to say: "There is still me!"
No matter how much he comforted himself, Zhao Mai knew that he could not be of much help, or that he was not a burden. He and the puppy found a tree trunk that they could lean on and hide from, and concentrated on observing things flying in the sky.
At this time, the black crack had disappeared, and the triangular flying object suddenly fell, and then flew up crookedly. Its course is very clear, pointing directly to the mangroves.
As the distance got closer, the shape of the flying object gradually became clear. The small triangle in the distance is actually a brown pyramid-shaped thing, with four upper parts of isosceles triangles and a slightly concave base. The pyramid is divided into three levels. The top is a bright gold-painted spire decorated with a huge English letter T.
On the middle floor, many black portholes are vaguely visible, which may transmit light in one direction, so I don't know what it looks like inside. The bottom layer is a complex pattern composed of hieroglyphs, just like the historical texts recorded on the walls of Egyptian tombs.
"Is there such a thing in Golarion?" Zhao Mai felt bad. Although Golarion is a rather fantasy world, and there is even a monkey god (WuKong) holding a stick in the Tianxia Empire, this does not mean that the locals can build such a large pyramid flying object. As soon as he opened his mind, in less than a second, he immediately thought of a taxi. This guy who flew over was probably from the same origin as himself!
"Damn it, I should have thought of it before, but I ended up just looking at the beauty!" Isn't that black crack with starlight the time and space channel for time travel? He couldn't help but start to get nervous. The big guy in front of him was obviously much more majestic than his "THE CHE". Even if it relied on its size and weight to press down like the Heaven-turning Seal, the entire mangrove would be destroyed.
When you don't know whether you are an enemy or a friend, it is best to treat them as enemies first. It is said that this is the Black Forest Theory. Well, surrounded by mangroves, that’s about it. Zhao Mai looked around and found a tree hole on the ground. He immediately took off the destiny gold coin from his chest and put it in, covering it with bark and moss. As for the gold coins that can only be used in pairs, put one on each side and put it in the leather pocket of the food reserve.
The pyramid was still crooked at first, but it seemed to have gradually adapted to the rules of flying here, became more and more stable, and began to slowly land. There was a roar in the mangroves, and a group of crows rose into the sky and flew towards the pyramid in the sky. On the ground, Zhao Mai began to count the bullets on his body and put the grenades in a useful place.
"Wadsworth, Wadsworth, I know you have many clones, send one over." Zhao Mai endured his physical discomfort and connected to the natural force of the mangrove again. Although it would delay his recovery, he felt it was important to get the word out about what he knew. "This flying object comes from another world and is specially designed to transport passengers in various worlds. I don't know their purpose of coming, but you must be prepared to take precautions. Visitors from other worlds do not care about the safety of this world. They also have ways to escape from here and escape. You must always be careful with the pursuit of local gods.”
There was no response to his words. It was unclear whether Wadsworth didn't hear it or simply didn't want to answer. Zhao Mai is now alone, and his ability to move is greatly affected by hunger and weakness. In order to be able to walk, he used the Megalodon's gun blade to chop down branches, hoping to make a makeshift crutch.
It's a pity that the mangrove is hard and tough, and Zhao Mai doesn't have enough strength. He was unable to cut off the branches until the pyramid landed in the swamp and came to a stop next to the mangroves.
The group of crows kept flying around the pyramid, trying to get close several times, but were blocked by an invisible force. When the pyramid is stabilized, the roots of the mangrove trees stretch out from the ground, poking forward with the force of nature. Unexpectedly, a burst of light flashed, all the tree roots were broken, and the natural force also encountered a barrier and could not advance even an inch.
A clone of Wadsworth walked out of the woods and stood in front of the pyramid, looking at this behemoth that was more than fifty meters tall. The entire object seems to be built in one piece, and apart from patterns on the surface, no joints between parts can be seen. Although the surface is a rock-like earthy brown, the material definitely doesn’t feel like stone, and it’s neither gold nor jade. Zhao Mai felt that it looked like some kind of polymer material, but it was impossible to tell with the naked eye. Besides, he also wanted to warn the paladins and Wadsworth outside, so he tried his best to hold himself up, grabbed the branches, and moved forward step by step.
At this moment, the side of the pyramid facing the mangroves used a telescopic pole to lower a suspension bridge, and then a green orc walked out of the glowing door. It sniffed the air with its large nostrils, stretched out its fangs and twitched the corners of its mouth, making a disgusted expression.
Seeing the orcs, the paladins were ready for battle, held up their holy symbols and began to pray to the goddess. Seeing this scene, the orc raised his left arm and pressed his right hand on the arm guard several times. The golden spire of the pyramid glowed, and a cone-shaped force field enveloped the entire mangrove. The natural force was not affected, but the light of all the holy symbols dimmed.
"What's going on?" Hazel tried a few more times, but neither the spell nor the divine power was effective. For the first time she felt alone and helpless.
