"How eerie does it feel here?" Xida said, clasping her hands on her chest. After passing through a short corridor, everyone is now flying together on a cube towards the core of Laputa.

However, the core of Sky City is completely different from the garden above. It is not as sunny and full of vitality as the building above. It is a huge dimly lit space, the entire space is very empty, only some cube stones engraved with patterns are suspended in the space.

In addition, the walls around the entire space are made of such stones, neatly arranged. Just like the printing plates arranged in movable type printing. There are only one or two square gaps in a few places. Judging from the size and shape of the gap, it should be left by the flying stones floating in the center of the space.

The cube under their feet went all the way down, and it didn't stop until it reached a corner at the bottom of this space. At this time, Ryan once again used the power of the Madonna of the Rose to summon the phantom of the pendant, and a stone slab next to it disappeared, revealing a door.

After everyone walked in the door, the ground moved down like an elevator. At this time, the surrounding environment is no longer pitch black, but reveals strips of blue light, which is full of sense of technology.

"The location we are in now has a strong magic defense and an extremely complex magic reaction." Ryan said after sensing the surrounding environment, "I think this place should have only a very A small number of people will be allowed in."

"This may be the control center that my grandma told me that only the royal family of Laputa can reach." After arriving at this place, Xida also recalled some things related to this place.

"How long has it been since no one came to this place? It feels like the whole space is occupied by tree roots." Baru complained loudly. After falling to the bottom, the door in front of him opened, but an arm-thick tree root blocked it. Open the door so that everyone can't get out of the elevator at all.

"Don't worry," Ryan said, stretching out his hand to touch the roots of the tree and began to communicate, and soon the roots moved aside as if they were alive. Except for the tree roots in front of you. All the tree roots that would hinder people's movement in the entire corridor outside the elevator were moved aside, forming a smooth road leading directly to the main control room.

"Wow! It's amazing, is this the power of magic?" Baloo and Xida exclaimed in a low voice at the same time, and Ryan walked out of the lift first and said: "Okay, now you two quickly follow. It’s not just the power of magic, if you want to achieve my level, you need to have a deep understanding of nature and reach a harmonious coexistence relationship with nature.”

"Sounds very powerful." Baloo shrugged and pulled Xida to follow. They walked through a long and narrow corridor along the cleared road and came to another wall. At this time, the tree roots were An arch was built in front of the wall, which accurately marked the location of the door.

"Can plants do this? Especially when the magic of this world is not so active." Hermione asked, looking at the arch made of tree roots in front of her with some puzzlement.

"Other plants in this world may not be able to do it, but the giant tree we saw just now can." Ryan gently stroked the arch made of tree roots and said, "This tree can only grow after absorbing a lot of special energy To the extent of pushing the limits of the tree itself, don't forget that this place has a powerful source of energy that can make a huge difference in the tree."

"This change has other aspects besides the size." Ryan summoned the Rosary Madonna to summon the phantom of the pendant to open the door as before, and turned his head and said to others, "For example, I just felt this. The big tree has now produced its own mind. Although this mind is very vague, not even a complete soul. But I believe that in time this big tree will become a tree person with wisdom.

"

"That's why after the tree communicated with you just now, its reaction has exceeded the upper limit of ordinary plants." Hermione nodded in understanding. Sometimes a powerful energy source does cause those ordinary creatures to mutate, at least they have seen many creatures that mutate under the stimulation of a strong energy source in the radiation world.

While they were talking, the wall in the arch made of tree roots slowly separated to the two sides, and a beam of light leaked from it, illuminating the entire dark corridor.

After the stone door was fully opened, Ryan and the others discovered that all the space inside the door had been completely occupied by plants. The roots of the big tree enveloped the entire room, and at the same time formed a golden cocoon in the formation of the room.

On the ground, there is a herbaceous plant almost as tall as a person. The plants have straight roots and only the top 1/3 have a few egg-sized leaves. They grow so densely on the grounds of this house that they take over all the ground.

"The flying stone crystal should be in the cocoon surrounded by the tree roots." Ryan pointed to the spherical space formed by the tree roots in the middle. "I could feel the powerful energy coming out of there."

Needless to say, everyone present could feel the power inside that cocoon. Even people like Baloo or Xida, who don't understand magic at all, feel that the light from the cracks in the roots shines on them, making their bodies seem lighter than before.

At this time, Ryan drew out his wand and tapped it in the air, and began to release a natural-friendly spell. Soon a green ripple asked Ryan's wand to fly out and swept across the entire space.

After touching the green ripples, those herbaceous plants retreated to the surroundings as if activated, and at the same time took away some of the silt from the roots. Soon, a stone path leading to the light cocoon formed by tree roots appeared in the grass.

When everyone walked along the stone road to the big cocoon formed by the tree roots, some tree roots parted to the two sides, revealing a blue transparent octahedron crystal floating in mid-air. In everyone's sight, this crystal is constantly rotating in the air, releasing light and energy outward.

"What a powerful magic power!" Standing in front of this crystal, Ryan whispered with emotion. In his magic perception, the crystal in front of him released a lot of magic power to the outside world like the sun, but when he left the flying stone crystal and walked beside After sensing for a while on the edge of a black stone platform engraved with cuneiform characters, Ryan frowned.

"This is?" Hermione watched Ryan's expression change and walked to his side, then took out her wand and cast a few investigative spells on the edge of the stone platform. As a person who has seen a lot of top alchemy with Ryan, she quickly discovered something wrong around her. "This method of energy utilization is too rough."

"What is rough use of power?" asked Baru, who was confused by Ryan's communication. "What do you mean by what you're saying now?"

"Ah, by the way, let me give you a protection first. Although the short-term exposure of the magic energy radiation in this place will not cause any serious harm, sometimes it is better to be cautious." After speaking, Ryan waved his hand to The two children put on a pink protective cover, and said to the two curious children who poked the protective cover with their hands. "This is used to protect you, to avoid the excessive amount of magic energy radiation you receive."

After taking good protection, Ryan explained, "Simply speaking, the flying stone crystal in front of us is a great miracle. It has powerful energy inside to maintain the flight and the operation of the entire sky city. But the ancient Laputa People's use of this energy is too rough, it can be said that this city in the sky is a typical example of Li Dazhuanfei."

"Rough, but we feel that this city in the sky is already a miracle." Xida retorted subconsciously, probably because as a descendant of the Laputa royal family, she subconsciously defended her ancestors.

"It's not that your ancestors weren't great," Hermione reassured with a smile. "However, the characteristics of this world make it impossible for you to master magic like us. If you only use various props to understand magic power, it is inevitable that your understanding of magic power is rough and not in place. In fact, your ancestors were able to do this now. One point has been very strong.”

"However, if we use the magic power according to the technology we have mastered, it will be far more perfect than it is now. I think only 1/5 of the current size of crystals can maintain the operation of this sky city."
