Chapter 417: Change Transportation
The rest of the journey after dealing with the unlucky Korean fleet was very peaceful, but I didn’t have time to wait for the battleship to slowly drive back to Isengard. Although the battleships in the game are relatively fast, for us Still can’t wait.
I took Kristina and the few surviving children directly to a nearby city, and then returned to Essinger with the help of the teleportation array. The leader's mother and the children who died before are waiting for us in the Teleportation Hall of Essinger. This is what we said before. If we get separated, don't run around, find a way to return to Isinger, and then go to the Teleportation Hall. Wait outside. Unexpectedly, we haven't even arrived at the first stop of this mission, and this initial agreement has come in handy.
When Kristina and I came out of the Teleportation Hall with the remaining children, the team leader's mother immediately came up with other children. Such a large group of people at the entrance of the teleportation hall would have hindered traffic, but the guards had been notified in advance by the God of War, and no one came to drive away the children, otherwise they would not have been able to stand here and wait for us to come out.
After we met, we just briefly talked about the situation before we separated, and then the aunt started to ask me: "Your fleet has been made like that, how are we going to get to that island now?"
"Don't worry, I have arranged this. You come with me first. We won't take the boat this time."
"Not taking a boat?" Several children looked at me in confusion and asked what was going on.
"This is compensation for you!" I said helplessly: "I originally wanted you to take a ride on the boat, but I didn't expect that this kind of thing would happen to you and even cause you to die once, so this time it's my fault. I’d like to apologize and give you a try.”
"Try something new?"
"You'll find out later."
Because I made it clear that I wanted to give them a surprise, they did not continue to ask, but followed me somewhere inside Essinger. However, as we passed higher and higher, they began to gradually find that the situation was not the same. That's right. When they finally realized that we were not walking outside the city, they realized that I was taking them to Sky City.
Essinger Sky City and Ground City are twin cities. The two are standing upright and the other is upside down, like reflections in the water. Of course, in fact, the buildings of Sky City and Ground City are not exactly the same, just because the block planning is the same, and the buildings of Essinger are all in the same style, so without looking carefully, you will feel that Sky City and Ground City are the same. The city is like a reflection.
Although the two cities overlap and stand upside down, Sky City is actually a closed area belonging to our guild. It is not open to the outside world. These children and the eldest mother of the group have not joined our guild yet. Therefore, it is temporarily unable to use the teleportation array to teleport directly to the Sky City above. Of course, it's okay for me to give them permission, but there are too many of them, and it would be troublesome to open them one by one, so I plan to take them directly to the Juling Tower.
On the surface, it seems that there is a Soul Gathering Tower in each of the two cities, and they happen to exist correspondingly, and the two Soul Gathering Towers also share the Eye of Hell in the middle. However, in fact, the two spirit gathering towers are one. Although they appear to be disconnected on the surface, in fact, the internal spaces of the two are connected. There is a space passage here that can directly reach the other end from one end. Moreover, this passage has no authority restrictions. As long as you can walk through it, you can reach the Sky City above. Of course, Juling Tower is located at the center of Essinger, surrounded by important departments. Therefore, let alone entering, even getting close is problematic for ordinary people. After all, next to the Soul Gathering Tower is the Temple of Chaos and Order. For players, invading the temple is not a fun thing.
When we arrived at the Juling Tower, the guard had already opened the tower door for us. This door is usually closed and will only be opened when needed. After all, Juling Tower is not usually used as a transportation hub, so generally no one comes in and out frequently.
When entering the Juling Tower, the children were inevitably amazed again, especially when they stood at the bottom of the tower and looked up. I believe many people will have that feeling. If you look at a building from a distance, you usually won’t feel anything. But if you stand within ten meters of the building and look up at the top of the building, as long as the building has ten layer or above. It will feel very high, and if there are more than twenty floors, it will feel like towering into the clouds.
The vertical height of the Juling Tower from the base to the top is 7,500 meters. This height is equivalent to a two thousand-story building. You can imagine what it feels like to stand at the bottom of the tower and look up. In fact, if a normal person has poor eyesight, it will feel like the Tower of Babel extends directly beyond the sight range. After all, the height of more than 7,000 meters is not that small. As for the Essinger Sky City above... In fact, you can only see a vague large group of buildings on the ground, and I can't see the details clearly. After all, both Essinger Twin Cities have Spirit Gathering Towers, so the actual distance between the two is actually equivalent to the height of the two Spirit Gathering Towers and more, because there is a huge Eye of Hell in the middle. Besides, the Juling Tower itself is not located on the city level, but is located at the highest point in the center of the city, so it is very high. As a result, the actual distance between the upper and lower Essinger has exceeded 15,000 meters. At such a large distance, normal people's vision can basically only distinguish objects with a length of more than 100 meters. Not even a small black dot can be seen.
After the children marveled at the height of the Juling Tower, I took them all into the tower. There are twelve elevator-like devices here, which are used to communicate between the two sides. After all, if the height of 7,500 meters were completely made into stairs for people to climb up with their legs, even with the physical abilities of the players in the game, it would probably be exhausting, right?
Because it is a direct elevator, there is no pause in the middle, so the speed is very fast. Except for a brief pause when passing the central gravity flip area, it basically goes all the way at high speed. Ten minutes later we successfully reached the bottom of the Spirit Gathering Tower in Essinger Sky City opposite. After leaving the Spirit Gathering Tower here, we started to drill directly into the city. Although our altitude has actually been rising during this process, because the direction of gravity in Sky City is reversed, it feels like we have been going underground.
After we passed through the entire space inside Essinger Sky City, we passed through a gravity flipping plane, and arriving here is equivalent to reaching the top of Essinger Sky City. This is actually where Essinger Mobile Fortress is stationed, and it is also the airport location of our guild. (To be continued.
