Chapter 243: On the way home

The intertwined light between the stone pillars continued to flow for a long time and finally became stable. The wonderful light and shadow looked as calm as a polished mirror without a trace of ups and downs; and the gray surface was like a lake water shining by hazy moonlight, making it difficult to see through the hidden things behind it.

Granted the name of "door" - as its literal meaning describes, this "mirror" set in the air by several rays of light is an entrance and exit connecting other worlds. Some spells use similar spells to summon things that exist in "exotic countries" in an attempt to obtain their assistance.

Basically, when it comes to its existence, all spells will think of their peers who use summoning spells. Although it is not only summoning spells that can build "doors" connecting other worlds, most of these methods are hidden secret techniques, and naturally they will not be widely known.

"Is this the effect of this Rubik's Cube array built with a city?" Li Qi stared at the mirror that was enough to accommodate the ship passing through, "What... I used so much material to build such a complex Rubik's Cube array, but it turned out to create a 'door' that could lead to another world?"

When she first saw this super giant magic cube array built from the entire city, Liqi was originally interested in the magic structure of this other world. However, she now seemed quite disappointed. This magic cube array has no reference value and may also have fatal dangers.

Yes, although summoning spell is a spell of history and is also known as one of the most profound knowledge of all ancient spells that value talents the most. But no one can deny that it also has a high risk of matching its profound and complex difficulty.

But she was not unaware of the other party's thoughts. The summoning spell itself is a very charming subject for all spells. It is not just simply attracting allies from foreign countries. There are also many fanatics who hope to go to foreign countries through those "doors" and learn more about them.

Some records have recorded some studies that have fallen into madness because of research. In order to open a door to their ideal foreign land, they sacrificed the things they thought were "worthless". In the end, they basically made knots by discovering their fragmented corpses.

Although it is full of charm, it contains incomparable dangers - so how many magicians have done these things in history? There has never been a definite answer to this question. The only thing that can be known is that the magicians who challenge this problem have never disappeared.

It was like a group of fish that were going upstream during the breeding period, and they were continuously studying the topic of opening a "door" to another world. Although everyone fell on the road to success, those enthusiastic researchers never made the choice to give up.

"It's not far even if it's not close."

The boy smiled and then took the orthogonal pyroxene in his hand back into his pocket: "But compared to the magicians, those who designed and created this city are closer to priests. It is said that they chose to use this unique method to build this magic cube array after receiving a certain 'inspiration' of will."

Perhaps it was the will of the gods they believed in - the boy grinned like a mockery, and then slowly approached the foot of a stone tablet standing beside him. The stone tablet had long been weathered so that it could not be seen. However, there were several symbols as big as a flowerpot on it, which seemed very distinct.

"For the sake of God's will to destroy the disobedient people, and for the sake of God's will, these towering buildings were built - although that's what he said, who knows the true body of the so-called 'god'?" He gently stroked the few symbols left on the stone tablet, just like he could understand the things they recorded. "It seems that there are such liars in any world, but there will be differences among those who are deceived."

The boy seemed to be telling his own personal experience, with a vague expression of regret in his eyes. Curt couldn't see what he was thinking, but he could vaguely feel the sadness he showed - as for Liqi, she just curled her lips disapprovingly.

Since the existence of written history, spells have been active in every corner of society. Whether they are fighting officials in the army or as sacrifices begging for good weather on the altar, many extraordinary people who have mastered far more powerful than ordinary people have even been praised on the altar. For some reason, those spells worshipped as "gods" were unexpectedly keen on opening the door.

When a man who is fanatic - perhaps even worse than "fanity" - is a spiritual leader of a group of fools, it is not unreasonable to understand how crazy things such a person will do. Just defrauding the believers of their belongings may be considered a restrained act. Many "leaders" may also ask believers to devote everything they have for their own selfishness.

There was a vague feeling of unhappiness. Liqi glanced at the corpses sealed in the gray crystals under the tower. They were shattered and obviously did not belong to the same species as those giants. Then their identity was probably a living sacrifice that provided precious magic power in this magic cube array. Therefore, they were treated like this. Torn apart, squeezed blood, crushed the soul... The victims bound in the crystal were used to the greatest extent.

It is somewhat similar to the strange formation I saw before, and it is all spell structures that will make Liqi feel disgusted. Squeeze the little magic power in the living object and then let them be used by the caster - undoubtedly, those weak people who do not have the ability to resist are the best choice.

But this was almost at its limit. The wreckage sealed inside the gray crystal was almost about to turn into ashes, and even the crystal shells that kept them had exposed countless cracks. At the moment when the surrounding towers began to move, they began to further disintegrate.

The arc-shaped gray crystal collapsed little by little, and the scattered fragments burst into countless fine pieces, and then turned into fine dust and melted into the surrounding parts. The crystal dust that flashed with a dim halo dragged out of the flowing track, and they reflected the shimmer of magic, as if it was the afterimage left by the moonlight.

Their magic power has been gone, and this operation may be the last work of the mechanic structure of the entire city. The gears and levers seem to have rusted long ago, and they can only maintain the lowest speed extremely slowly. The cracked stone slabs keep falling as they rotate.

As time passes by minute by minute, the mirror-shaped "door" located in the center of the platform is also slowly forming. The flowing light slowly solidifies, and a circle of fine orbs gradually appear around the dim light. They rotate rapidly, finding positions at the corners and stabilizing.

"How long can the remaining magic power be maintained here?" Liqi looked at the door that was finally going to complete, and looked up at the boy who had already walked to the central pedestal. "The crystals you just gave us just barely maintain the amount of mechanical activities, and the remaining magic power in this city is not enough to provide it to continue running for a long time. If I hadn't made any mistakes in the estimate, it might be difficult to maintain until we arrived."

Summoning spells requires a large amount of magic to maintain the operation of the "gate", and a considerable amount of it is needed to maintain its stability. Even if the spell casting spells has mastered all the intelligence, he cannot completely avoid the risk of spells. Unstable magic may have problems at any time.

After all, this kind of spell is one of the most risky spells. Only the most wise magicians can summon incredible creatures from foreign countries. Even they will not be willing to easily break through the "door" they set up... because this often means they will be torn apart by the turbulent flow of magic at any time.

“It’s true.”

The boy spread his hands and said helplessly: "I have put the magic power used to maintain the stability of the channel into operation, but there is no way. I dare the magic turbulence in the channel can cut anyone into pieces... But this should not be a problem for you two."

It was a curse engraved on the body and even the soul. No matter how damaged the bodies of Curt and Liqi were, they would return to their original state in a short time. At the cost, the growth of the body was completely blocked - no matter how hard they tried to exercise, they would only accumulate experience in the end; they would use all their strength to warm up their magic, but the weak growth would not take long to waste.

It's like being forced to lock in time. Although thinking and memory are still accumulating, the body that keeps returning makes people gradually lose the real sense of being a "person". Even if you want to escape, you can only watch indifferently no matter what happens.

"So, I think you two should have been mentally prepared for hundreds of times, right?" The boy who had already known the two did not say much. He smiled slightly, and then pointed to the huge door that stayed on the pedestal. "If there is no other problem, then jump in."

There was only a dark glow in front of me, as calm as the surface of the windless lake. The visual noise that appeared from time to time was occasional ripples. This was probably the biggest scene in Curt's life to summon the door, but the strange sense of insecurity was undoubtedly telling its danger.

Curt glanced at Liqi with a giggle. The thin girl seemed to be ready. She held Curt with one hand and the other hand was ready for emergency protection.

What else can you say? The longer you drag it, the more dangerous this "door" that is already quite unstable will become. If you only get bruised when you rush in now, then dragging it for a few seconds will probably be cut into fragmented fragments by the turbulent flow of magic as the boy said.

After a moment, the two rushed into the seemingly calm light together. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
