Chapter 203: Teleportation Array for Climbing the Wall

() After leaving the Elf City, we entered the underground world under the guidance of Miss Congressman.レ♠思♥路♣客レ On the road, we have been communicating, and my main purpose is to test and adjust the personality characteristics of Miss Congressman. Of course, it is impossible to completely change a person in such a short period of time, but it can be done to change someone's attitude towards a specific individual. It's like some people usually behave very strongly, but when they meet someone, they suddenly turn into kittens. This kind of behavior characteristic is a special personality expression for an individual.

I can't change a person's sex in such a short period of time, but I can make the congresswoman fear me, which will turn into a kind of worship. As long as she can fear me and then worship me, her character will no longer affect my plans. ..

During the chat, I learned that the name of the congresswoman is Susis Kewen Salata. This name has more middle names than ordinary names, which shows that Susis is not an ordinary elf, because although the names of normal elf are not short, they are because the syllables are relatively long, not because the name has many segments. This kind of name with many segments but very short pronunciation only exists for high-ranking nobles among the dark elves. In other words, Susis should be a noble and have a high status. This is the same as our guess when we rescued her before.

Under the leadership of Susis, we entered the underground world and then went to a ruins near the entrance of the underground world. The location of this ruins is very strange. It was built at the end of an underground river. The river rushed under the ruins, and then turned into a waterfall from the other side of the ruins and plunged into an abyss thousands of meters deep.

Because it was built above an underground river, the interior of this ruins is very humid. Fortunately, there is no sunlight, so there is no moss. But even so, the ground is slippery enough, and standing on it feels like walking on ice. ..

"The headquarters of the Dark Council is actually so close to the ground?" Kristina asked in surprise after entering the underground ruins.

Susis said while leading the way: "This is not the headquarters of the Dark Council."

"Then why did you bring us here?" Kristina asked.

Susis directly pushed open a half-open stone door, then pointed forward and said, "Take that."

The thing Susis was referring to was a platform located in the center of the room. This platform is in the shape of a regular hexagon, about half a foot above the ground. It has quite complex magic lines painted on it, and there are a few grooves around it, but there is nothing inside.

"Is this a teleportation array?" I simply looked at the magic array diagram and asked.

Susis looked at me in surprise and asked, "Can you read the structure of the magic circle?"

I checked the magic array nonchalantly and said, "Most of it doesn't work. But the teleportation array is used too much. I still remember some of it. But why doesn't your teleportation array have a control line? What are the settings for the teleportation coordinates?"

"There is no need to set coordinates. This is a demi-plane teleportation array. There is a traction teleportation array on the other side. As long as both sides are activated at the same time, the target can be pulled over. This is probably the principle. I just listened to what others said. I’m not very clear either.”

Kristina came over and touched the wiring on the teleportation array. Then asked: "Will the Dark Council be very unpopular?"

"Why do you ask that?" Susis asked in confusion.

Kristina said while studying the teleportation array: "The failure rate of using the demiplane teleportation array is very high, and the risk is more than ten times higher than the general teleportation array. Its only advantage is that it cannot be reversely tracked, even if it is interpreted The teleportation array on this side has no way of knowing where the receiving point is. If you weren’t so hated, why did you make the teleportation array so hidden?”

Susis said while looking for something on the nearby wall: "The advantage of the demiplane teleportation array is concealment, but this is not its only advantage. You only know its concealment, but you don't know about the demiplane teleportation array. Strong anti-locking ability.”

"Anti-lockdown? Could it be that the headquarters of the Dark Council has been on lockdown?" Kristina is an elite among mages. Although she is not from the space department, she still knows some related things.

Susis nodded and acknowledged Kristina's judgment, and then continued: "More than two thousand years ago, our Dark Council was invaded by the Earthly Light God Clan. At that time, a tragic war broke out between the two sides. In the end, the Dark Council We were beaten until we were almost disbanded, and the headquarters was jointly released by several gods of the Light Clan to block the dimension, and then our headquarters was directly thrown into the cracks of the demiplane. But we were lucky. Because the local wizard god at that time Seeing this opportunity, I took the opportunity to launch an attack on the Light God Clan. After that, the Light God Clan here was basically crippled, and it has not been replaced until now. Therefore, you can hardly find the presence of the Light God Clan in South America. .”

"Your headquarters is blocked by the Dimension of the Light Gods. So it's almost like a demi-plane now, right?" I asked aloud.

Susis nodded and said: "Actually, this is not bad. Although it is a bit troublesome to enter and exit, demiplane also has the advantages of demiplane. At least we don't have to worry about intruders here. Because the gods who sealed our headquarters have fallen. , so now even the Protoss of Light cannot find the exact spatial coordinates of our headquarters. Therefore, even if they have the ability to organize another invasion of the same scale as before, they will not be able to get in. "

"After what you said, I'm planning to turn our Essinger Mobile Fortress into a demiplane!"

"Is Essinger Mobile Fortress your city?" Susis asked.

"No, that is our mobile war fortress." Kristina said: "We have many cities, and Essinger is one of them."

As soon as Kristina finished speaking, Susis over there had already found a hidden compartment on a wall, and then pulled it out with great effort. I saw that she seemed unable to get it out, so I walked over and asked, "Are you going to pull it out?"

Susis nodded and said: "Be careful and don't use too much force. This wall is very old and it will collapse completely if you are not careful."

I nodded and gradually increased my strength. Later, I felt a little tired, so I simply used eternity to turn into a dagger and cocked it a few times. After loosening the outer slate, the drawer-like secret compartment inside becomes easier to open. After pulling out this secret compartment, I found a few scattered crystal stones inside. The quality is very poor, there are many magazines, and the particles are not large.

"You want this to be used as energy?" Although this kind of crystal is absolutely prohibited for regular teleportation arrays, it is different for this kind of demiplane teleportation array. Since there is no need for positioning, it doesn't matter whether the magic power is pure or not. Even intermittent energy can meet the needs of this teleportation array. If it weren't for being too unstable. The demiplane teleportation array is actually a very good teleportation method.

After Susis got the crystal, he walked over to the magic circle and started placing the crystal. Kristina and I also helped install it. Anyway, there is no skill in this thing, just put the crystal in. , unlike regular teleportation arrays that require energy matching and so on.

After placing the crystal, we stood on the teleportation array together, and then Susis gently stepped on the crystal in the center of the magic array. The teleportation array starts instantly, without the positioning process of a traditional teleportation array. There was no preparation at all. We only felt a flash around us, and then our eyes immediately went dark. After a pause of less than a second, a feeling of weightlessness suddenly appeared around us, but this feeling only lasted for more than a second, and then we suddenly felt that we were falling into the water.

The moment I entered the water, I knew I had been fooled. Susis has always performed pretty well in previous contacts. The various reactions are very similar to those of people whose behavioral characteristics have been gradually changed, but the current situation is obviously not normal. Even if this situation is normal, Susis should have informed us in advance.

Although I realize that Susis may have done it on purpose, I don't have time to analyze that now, so I'd better confirm the surrounding situation first.

After entering the water, we kept sinking. I spread my wings and flapped hard. My body immediately rose up, but the top of my head hit a layer of hard rock. In other words, it is completely underwater. There is no air above the head. Fortunately, my helmet can not only breathe underwater, but it also drains water automatically. Otherwise, judging from the situation I just fell into the water without putting down the mask, I would have drowned even with an oxygen mask on.

After putting down the mask to drain the water in the helmet, I started to look for Kristina's whereabouts. As soon as I lowered my head, I saw Kristina and Persephone standing inside a spherical cover. It seemed that they were no longer needed. Helped.

After confirming that there was no problem with Persephone and Kristina, I started to look for the whereabouts of Susis, but this place is underwater. Although I can see with night vision, it is not visible in this place. The range is not large, so Susis's location cannot be found at all. However, although I can't find it, it doesn't mean that my magic pet can't be found either.

"Ana, help find a servant."

After Adi Na appeared, she just hummed, then looked in one direction and said: "The black elf we are looking for is right below us, and it is still diving quickly. But I suggest that we get rid of the thing in front first before thinking about it. Pursuing the problem.”

Just as A Di Na finished speaking, I saw a huge black shadow appear at the edge of my sight in front of me. The black shadow quickly enlarged and became clear, and then I saw a very ugly-looking head. It seems that underwater creatures, especially creatures in such dark waters, are very ugly. Even races like mermaids will become ugly when they enter the abyss of the sea.

The monster in front of me doesn't look like a fish, because it has no fish features on its head and looks a bit like a mammal. But no matter what animal it is now, this thing is definitely a dangerous animal. Therefore, I released Xiao Longnu without hesitation.

Xiao Longnu is the most powerful in underwater combat, especially when facing large creatures.

I expected this monster to run away because of the dragon's power, but what I didn't expect was that it actually rushed up after the little dragon girl appeared. Of course, the result was no surprise. Xiao Longnu pinched the monster's neck with one claw, and then tore it apart in two or three strokes. The current Xiao Longnu has passed her infancy and is now in her youth. Just like most young people actually have very good physical strength, after Shenlong enters adolescence, he will basically have the physical characteristics of an adult Shenlong, but may be slightly inferior in terms of mana. Of course, that was for the Shenlong family. It was still very easy to ravage such little monsters.

After taking care of the monster over there, the little dragon girl grabbed me with one claw and grabbed the protective shield where Kristina and Persephone were with the other, and then chased in the direction of Susis' escape below.

The location where we appeared just now was very close to the top of the cave, but it was quite deep from the bottom. We dived for more than 500 meters in one go before we hit the bottom. This means that in the game, if in reality, not only does the equipment lower this depth, the human body will definitely not be able to withstand the water pressure.

Although there is great depth here, Sussis is not affected in any way. Moreover, this girl's temperament is surprisingly good. The speed was very fast. In the short time it took the little dragon girl to kill the monster, she had already reached the bottom and got into a hole. Little Dragon Girl's body was too big to get in, so when we got here, I asked her to temporarily transform into a human form, and then Little Dragon Girl opened the way, and the rest of us filed in behind, and finally Aina finished behind.

The hole Susis got into was not that big. Although it's a little wider inside, it's just barely enough to pass people. After crawling forward along this passage for quite a long distance, we finally left this oppressive passage, and the little dragon girl immediately recovered her body as soon as she came out of this small hole.

"What's going on up there?" I followed Xiao Longnu out and found that Xiao Longnu was motionless. At that time, I knew she must have discovered something, but before Xiao Longnu could answer, I found myself on the surface of the water.

Although the narrow passage has been twisting and turning, the overall feeling is that it should be going downwards. In other words, this place should be lower than the water area we were just in. However, the high waters over there are all filled with water, while here there is actually only a fairly large lake that is not completely submerged in water. The only explanation for this happening is that this is a closed space. Due to the high internal pressure, the relatively high water flow over there cannot flow through, so this situation occurs.

After discovering the water, I started observing the environment here. This is still a water world, the only difference is that most of the caves here are in the air. There is only water down there. Moreover, the depth of the water was only ten meters. As soon as Xiao Longnu stood up, her entire body was out of the water. Only the legs were still in the water.

"Have you seen Susis?"

"Over there." The little dragon girl pointed to a piece of land not far away. Susis was standing on it without running away, and behind her was a relatively large cave entrance.

When I saw this situation, I knew that she was not planning to run away, and her previous actions should not have been to harm us, but some kind of revenge, similar to a reaction such as losing her temper.

After taking back Xiao Longnu and Aina, Kristina and I went ashore directly. I did not reprimand Susis, but asked directly: "The headquarters of the Dark Council is in front?"

"No. This is just a transit point. You won't be able to cross the dimensional blockade with just one demi-dimensional teleportation, right?"

Kristina nodded and said: "Although I also know a little about the principles of demiplane teleportation, I really don't understand much about this aspect. But I understand it now."

I interrupted them directly and said, "Let's move forward. Let's go to the transit teleportation array."

Susis didn't say anything, turned around and entered the hole at the back. This hole is only a few meters deep. After reaching the bottom, you can see a spiral upward step, but it doesn't feel like it was dug manually. Because the steps are high and low, the roots are irregular, and some steps are more than one meter high. Normally People need to use their hands and feet to climb up.

After moving up more than ten meters through this step, we entered a small space of only five or six square meters. There was also a teleportation array on the ground here, but this teleportation array was not a demiplane teleportation array, but a teleportation array. Standard teleportation array.

In fact, it is easier to understand the role of these transfer transmission arrays if you imagine the space blockade as a circle of walls. The demiplane teleportation array we used before was like an elevator. It sent us to a building higher than the wall. But the standard teleportation array we see now is equivalent to a cable car. It can transport us to a building above the wall. We were sent to the roof of another building at the same height behind the wall. However, that place is not inside the wall, but on the roof, so as expected, after using this teleportation array, we have to use the demiplane teleportation array again before we can reach the Dark Council headquarters.

The result is just like my analysis, this teleportation array accurately teleported us to a very strange place. This place is a circular space, and it is three-dimensional. We are all inside this sphere, and we all stand in different positions. The strangest thing is that Kristina and I were standing at an angle of 45 degrees, but neither of us felt weightless or tilted. In fact, it is as if we are standing inside a sphere, and the gravity of this sphere is outward. Of course, another problem is that the area of ​​this spherical world is too small. All we can see is a perfect sphere with a diameter of about six meters, without any entrance or exit, except for a teleportation array suspended in the center of the sphere. There is nothing outside.

"Is this also a demiplane?" Kristina asked.

Susis nodded and said: "This is a space danger that one of our senior mage accidentally opened when making space equipment, but as you can see, it is only so big. The light film under our feet has The boundary of this world, there is nothing outside it, or in other words, there is no such thing as outside."

I nodded to express my understanding, and then asked: "Is the one in the middle the demi-plane teleportation array?"

Susis nodded again, and then woke up and said: "There is no way to fix the coordinates of the demi-plane teleportation array. I didn't mean to harm you before. So you may appear anywhere in the Dark Council headquarters in a while. Don't If you are running around, just tell the person you see that I brought you here, and then ask him to take you to Zhongyang Square to wait for the meeting, and I will wait for you there and explain it to you."

I am not worried about what Susis said, because even if it is her plan, it will not have any impact on us. The people of the Dark Council can't do anything to us anyway. We are definitely not the ones who suffer in the fight. (To be continued.)
