Extraordinary Sailing

In the country of Aoyu Formos, in the grand arena.

Although the large auditorium was empty, a middle-aged man in a white robe with slanted shoulders and an emerald emerald on his forehead still raised his arms and shouted enthusiastically:

"The winning party can enjoy the big meal, and the losing party will continue to starve. Slaves, please use your full strength to please the great King Oyuphomos! The gladiatorial battle begins!"

clang--!

Then he rang the bronze bell beside him vigorously.

call out! call out!

The thick bronze gates on both sides of the arena opened, and two figures shot into the field covered with fine sand.

Finally, without the barrier of the cell railings, the black wizard with the second-order peak level took the lead in attacking:

"It's all your fault, you three idiots! Do you know where this is? The accident you made this time will kill everyone!"

Stephanie, who was holding a spear in her hand, didn't have a good temper, and choked back without showing any weakness:

"Ha, how can you blame us? You were the ones who attacked us without saying a word. If it weren't for you evil black wizards, the 'Theseus' would have already escaped.

And in the beginning, it was obviously you who were setting up traps, trying to catch those weird natives, right?

I haven't asked you unlucky fellows why you sneaked up here with all those grotesques? "

The couple live in Gorontalo in the Celebes Islands, and they are no strangers to the "Black Obelisk". What's more, the guy on the opposite side was still in the [Clock Tower], when he was fighting for the [Ancient Scroll].

The plan implemented by the "Eye of Wealth" is to buy those who can be bought with money, and corrupt if they cannot be bought with money.

The "Black Obelisk" is composed of many extraordinary people, black wizards, and wise monsters. The faction attributes alone determine that most of them are not good people.

Regardless of whether those ancient gods and evil gods are anti-human villains, there is no need for corruption, these guys have completely succumbed to the offensive of money.

And because of his understanding of "Broken Star Sea", he became the vanguard of the ancient god's action.

"We were caught in the core area of ​​the 'Remnants' country. Even if a large army came, it would be impossible to rescue us from here. It's all your fault!!!"

As a person standing in front of the big army, although the black wizard doesn't know what the "Eye of Fortune" and the family members of the ancient gods are doing to arrest these "survivors". But she knew much more information than Stephanie, and she knew the danger of going deep into the core area of ​​the empire.

Trapped in prison and with the unknown fear of being "infected" by the family members of the ancient gods around him, he hysterically smashed the [cursed sarcophagus] that could only be carried on his back because the magic pocket was taken away, and opened it angrily. coffin lid.

rustle.

The pitch-black scarab made of fine black sand rushed towards Stephanie like a sandstorm.

[Witchcraft Black Ant! 】

Boom!

Stephanie stepped forward violently, her whole body's vitality field was like a mighty melting pot, the majestic fighting spirit shattered the hairband on her head, and her long golden-red hair fluttered in the wind.

"Stop talking nonsense and die!"

Although the weapon was destroyed, there was no such weapon as the swift sword in this country. But for a great knight who has stepped into the third-order peak one step ahead of his younger sister Liwena, even a spear will not affect the performance of [Rose Sword Art] in the slightest.

Boom! Boom!

In the black sandstorm, the crimson fighting spirit flames flashed.

There is a high-ranking wizard husband who has lived for nearly two hundred years. Stephanie is far more suitable for fighting wizards than ordinary grand knights. Moreover, the black wizard himself only keeps one witchcraft item, which greatly reduces his strength.

Even though the female knight wore a metal collar on her slender neck, her clothes were torn and her boots had been lost, she was still as mighty as a Valkyrie.

Five minutes later.

Grasping the weakness of the opponent's lack of mobility after losing most of his equipment, the spear in his hand turned into a heavy hammer like a thunderstorm, and smashed down on him fiercely.

Boom—!

Beat the guy who was chattering and spitting poison to pieces.

A phantom mummy wrapped in withered yellow bandages escaped from his body, and suddenly got into the sarcophagus beside him, and then another figure jumped out of it.

It appears to be unharmed, but the body also wears a collar around its neck.

It's just different from Stephanie's metal collar, but a semi-glossy rune collar, which mainly targets the soul, and is far more difficult to deal with than the metal collar.

Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!

Applause sounded in the only special auditorium with people.

"Interesting, interesting."

The king of this kingdom is also the "Son of God" Oyu Phomos. He has golden curly hair and a handsome face like the sun. He wears a gorgeous red robe, revealing half of his strong chest like a marble sculpture.

He was hugging two beautiful female slaves wearing tulle and smiling sweetly, enjoying the fruit and fine wine they brought to his mouth.

"These miraculous transcendents, who are completely different from the imperial system, will be the stars in the arena on the day of the gathering.

After exhausting my life and courage, I died with incomparable glory. Let me use their blood to write the covenant of this year's alliance on the pillar of the temple of Sea God Amphitrite! Hahaha"

The country of Arion in the southern sea area.

Aiwen and Dak Tilly, who came out of the large library, walked on the wide and tidy streets of the city, with blue and white electric lights flickering under their feet, and they covered more than ten meters in one step.

However, although the manifestations of electro-optic are similar, the essence is not the same.

It's not like today's human beings are growing from weak to strong, and can even gradually grow into a "figure of truth" comparable to a demigod.

As a natural extraordinary race, the Zondriric people have the ability to use the "life magnetic field" as their natural ability. The ability will naturally increase as the bloodline matures over time, and there is no such thing as self-improvement.

But since it is the power of thunder and lightning rooted in the body, Aiwen, who has [Urgent Thunder Swordsmanship] and has been promoted to [Herald Knight], has no difficulty in disguise.

By the way, Ai Wen also confirmed from the side that although [Ji Lei Sword Art] is very similar to the abilities of the Zondriric people, the source must not be this civilization.

"It's really prosperous, it's like a legendary utopia."

Having witnessed all the magic of this city with his own eyes, Aiwen couldn't help sighing in his heart. If there is no urgent matter now, I can't wait to go deep into it and have a good stroll.

After reading the information in the library, the scale of this empire far exceeded his initial expectations.

It's not the kind of "player's wine" that a small city-state with a few thousand people dares to call itself a country, but a huge empire with all the land in the form of islands adding up to 5 million square kilometers, which is half the area of ​​the Garriott Principality.

The territory of the entire empire was subdivided into 90,000 military regions in addition to the overall division of the ten kingdoms. Each area has a commander who is responsible for dispatching 12 soldiers, two horses, a chariot and all the supplies needed.

The total population is about 12 million people, the number of people recognized as citizens as natural supernatural beings is about 2 million people, and the rest are mainly slaves and servants.

As aircraft pilots, Actaeon and Daktili were the best among them, otherwise they would not be eligible to enter the National Library at all.

But behind the brilliance, there is an unknown extravagance and pleasure, which makes Aiwen, the real monarch who also manages a population of more than 10 million, secretly frown.

"Hee hee, come quickly."

"Last Night's Opera"

There are plump and fair-skinned women drinking and playing in the open-air cold springs and hot springs all over the city.

Even Dak Tilly, who was still anxious about the task just now, met a familiar beautiful lady on the road, and held hands and flirted with each other for a long time on the side of the road.

As they gradually moved away from the circular central city, more and more ragged slaves appeared on the side of the road.

Ivan, who noticed this scene for the first time, felt that he had suddenly come from the extremely beautiful "Utopia" to the "cyberpunk" world of high technology and low life.

If you think about it, you know that the total population of 12 million is divided into one point, and each kingdom is actually about one million people.

While ensuring the high-level ruling class was extravagant, the slaves in the city and the provinces on the outlying islands naturally became the targets of exploitation by the top citizens, soldiers, nobles, and priests in the central city.

But this developed civilization that seems to be "sick" doesn't need Ivan to care about it for the time being.

In fact, when Dak Tilly said that there was an extremely glorious task for them to perform, Ivan had already decided to run away. Although he discovered Zondriric, an unexpected ancient civilization, he never forgot that the main purpose of his trip to the "Broken Sea of ​​Stars" was to find Geros and Stephanie.

This huge civilization is there, and it will be the same next time.

But when Daktili revealed that their specific task was to be sent to the neighboring country of Aoyufumus to attend the meeting of the Ten Kings. Moreover, after the Aoyuformos country claimed that he had captured a slave with magical abilities that he had never seen before, Aiwen immediately changed his mind.

According to tradition, the ten kings who rule this civilization meet every five years, and the ten countries take turns to discuss the distribution of interests and rights among each other. The highlight is the grand slave wrestling.

The outcome of the gladiatorial battle largely determines the status and ranking of the countries.

It's not impossible that Jeros Stefanie, who possesses third-level strength, disappeared and was captured by the Zondriric people because they were too close to the sphere of influence of the Zondriric people.

For them who jointly own the "Adventurer's Blood" and "Golden Compass", when they are not sure about each other's location. Looking around without a clue, it is better to follow the crowd and leave the rest of the itinerary to the "supernatural gathering effect".

When they ran all the way to the "airport".

Crackling

The Academy of Engineering, which oversees cutting-edge technology, is putting the finishing touches on these fixed-wing, propeller-powered aircraft.

Ivan also saw the internal structure of the carefully disassembled aircraft for the first time.

"That is."

He couldn't help but focus his attention on something in his [Witchcraft Garden].

Incomplete copper-clad circuit boards, burnt silicon wafers, and more than half of the transistors have been turned into black and bright insect chitin, obviously polluted by an unknown existence.

The structure is very primitive, and the workmanship is also a bit crude.

It was an [Integrated Circuit] obtained from [Clock Tower]. Aiwen judged that the level of civilization had at least reached the electrical age. It used to be a part of some kind of electronic equipment.

At this time, Ivan discovered that this thing was exactly the same as a certain component inside the aircraft.

A new doubt arose in his heart, seemingly inadvertently asked his teammates:

"Dak Tilly, have you taken a flying vehicle to see the island where we live?"

The pilot next to him seemed to have heard some ridiculous question, and patted Ivan on the shoulder:

"Actaeon, what nonsense are you talking about? Except for the land protected by the sea god Amphitrite, the whole world outside has long been flooded. No matter who you are, you will never return!"

'has a problem! ! ! '
