Chapter 26 [The outside world is so scary]
In the history of the Roland Empire, an outstanding emperor once said a famous saying:
"The Imperial Code is sacred and inviolable! Within the borders of the Empire, everyone must strictly abide by the Imperial Code."
That emperor later created the most glorious era in the history of the Roland Empire. That era was famous for its strict laws and stable imperial rule.
However, it was the same emperor... It is said that while leaving behind that popular saying, he added another sentence in private. Of course, this private remark was not recorded in any official document, but it is
The words were disclosed through many channels and were widely circulated.
"...Everyone must abide by the Imperial Code, but there are two exceptions. The first exception is the emperor himself. The imperial power can override the Code at certain times! And...the other exception is...the magician!
"

Powerful magicians often have abilities that are far beyond those of ordinary people. When this ability reaches an extreme, it can even move mountains and seas, and even change the fate of a country. According to existing literature, those who are so powerful that
When people can't even look up, in the eyes of mortals, it is almost an existence similar to a god!
Those strong men can flatten mountains and fill up the sea with a wave of their hands. They can summon storms of ice and snow, or use the scorching sun to burn the plains into dry deserts! They can destroy thousands of armies and create monsters with a wave of their hands.
A disaster that could destroy a small country!
For such strong men, secular "codes" are obviously unable to restrain them. And it is obviously unrealistic for those strong men who can destroy the world at every turn to abide by secular laws.
Even if you don't count the legendary strong men who are said to have power close to that of gods... even a life-and-death battle between ordinary magicians is enough to cause a small disaster, and such a disaster is enough to destroy a city.
There are historical records that before this continent was unified, it was a war-torn and dark era. Often, a decisive battle between two magicians could even directly destroy a city-state!
After the continent was unified into a powerful and complete Roland Empire, the large-scale wars disappeared. The battles at the magician level also gradually decreased. Even so, in the history of the Roland Empire, there were some magicians.
A record of "conveniently" destroying one or two small towns during a private duel.
But even so, in the imperial code, there is no law for magicians similar to "not allowed to duel in public places". There are laws and regulations for ordinary people that do not allow duels in public places, but magicians are not included in this.
Even the Magic Guild only requires magicians to minimize settling personal grudges in crowded places. It is just a requirement, and there are no hard and fast rules.
Even the agreement reached between the Magic Union and the Empire is that any intermediate-level magician or above, even if he has committed a heinous crime, unless he has committed a felony of treason, otherwise, if a magician is to be convicted or punished, he must
It can only be tried jointly by the empire officials, the magic union, and the Temple of Light! Otherwise, the empire officials have no right to arrest or convict any magician above the intermediate level.
In the hundreds of years of history of the empire, there has never been a record of an intermediate-level magician or above being punished by the empire for breaking the law. These undoubtedly show that magicians are superior to ordinary people.
of particularity.
A group that possesses extraordinary abilities, is also above the law, and can act almost entirely according to their own preferences, and is almost unfettered... In the eyes of ordinary people, magicians are like this.
Therefore, when it comes to magicians, people have always had an attitude of awe, and fear accounts for a larger proportion here.

Almost all the residents of Banjiao City were awakened from their sleep by the huge noise that night.
The violent vibration caused many people to wake up from their dreams and even fall out of bed. The lights above their heads were shaking, and the wooden doors of their homes creaked. Countless people woke up in horror, only to find that there was a violent vibration.
He couldn't even stand still.
People ran out of the houses in panic, only to find that in what should have been a dark night, there was a dazzling light shining on the horizon. The huge light group flickered, and even something could be heard in the distance.
What kind of ferocious beast made such a roar that made people feel fear from the bottom of their hearts!
Wave after wave of vibrations came from outside the city, and everything seemed to be some kind of unknown terrible disaster. The earthquake, coupled with the fire in the sky, and the roar that made people feel chilly, made the residents of Banjia City start to panic.
The most frightening thing was that after a wave of oscillations came... the violent earthquake even caused a section of the northern city wall to collapse! The sound of the city wall collapsing caused people to start running blindly in the city!
And in the distance, as if in the direction of Banjiao Mountain outside the city, everyone can even see with the naked eye, two huge light groups, one silver and one fiery red! These two light groups collide fiercely and fiercely
, the number of collisions is becoming more and more frequent, and with each collision, the light stirred up can almost illuminate the night! Even the moon in the sky has long lost its luster!
Along with the intense light, there were dull roars one after another! The roars made people tremble with fear! Every time they heard it, it was like a heavy hammer hitting the human heart.
Also in panic were the few light infantrymen of the local garrison left in the city. These soldiers who were responsible for guarding the city walls were unable to maintain order in the face of the panicked residents of Banjiao City... Their manpower was too weak.
, and was just as scared inside.
The most terrifying thing is... the news finally came! Someone ran to the garrison camp outside the city to ask for help, but they were horrified to find that the dozens of cavalry left behind in the garrison camp were also injured and fainted on the ground.
The famous Knight Spann was also seriously injured. The military camp was in a mess, and there were still unextinguished fires, as if someone had just attacked him!
Panicked people began to crowd outside the city, and some people climbed onto the high ground in panic...
At this moment, a sound like muffled thunder came from the direction of Banjiao Mountain... followed by a series of sounds like thunder in a summer rainstorm...
"The mountain has collapsed! Half of the mountain has collapsed!!"
I don’t know who was the first to exclaim from a high place! Then the alarming news quickly spread among the crowd.
Indeed, half of the mountain collapsed!!
In the distance, the hill that could be seen with the naked eye from standing on the city wall, the peak of the famous local Banjiao Mountain, collapsed suddenly in front of people's horrified eyes! The whole mountain seemed to be shaken apart by something.
, as if it was not a mountain, but a pile of sand... and it suddenly fell down!
In the distance, the fierce bright light can be clearly seen even by people dozens of miles away! And some people with better eyesight seem to be able to see two strange people in the strong light.
And huge shadows are flying...
For the residents of Banjiao City, this was probably destined to be an unforgettable night in their lives. Because under the unknown panic, they looked forward to dawn almost with the same longing mood!
When the sky finally shined with a ray of morning sun, the frightening roar and those fierce bright lights that had flashed for half the night finally disappeared!
After waiting for more than an hour, when it was confirmed that this unknown disaster seemed to be over, the fear in people's hearts gradually calmed down.
Knight Spann and others who were rescued by soldiers who ran to the garrison camp in the middle of the night last night finally woke up, as well as Robert and others.
In the face of the powerful power of the magician, they had almost no ability to resist, and were injured and fainted. Then, under the magic of the ice and snow beauty, the entire hall collapsed by her. The people who were knocked down by the ice and snow beauty at that time,
Several others were injured by collapsed buildings.
The first one to wake up from the rescue was the female knight Ruolin.
Ruolin was injured in the day's battle and lost too much blood. She rested at night, and Solskjaer also gave her some sleep-promoting drugs. As a result, Ruolin, who was not injured in the night attack, was the first to wake up.
When she arrived, she was still weak from losing too much blood. After all, the lost blood could not be replenished in a short time.
The ones who woke up next were Knight Robert, then Knight Spann, and then the guards of the Rowling family. After these few people discovered that their little master and the terrifying female attacker were missing, everyone panicked.
After learning about the situation from the people around him, the injured Robert immediately supported his injured body regardless of the burnt injuries on his body. He took a few men with slightly less injured bodies and immediately prepared a car and headed for Half Point Mountain. Knight Spann learned that
The young master of the Luo Lin family disappeared, and he suddenly stepped off a cliff! He was seriously injured and could not move, so he could only order everyone in the garrison who could still move to follow Robert to Banjiao Mountain immediately! Because according to the residents,
It is possible that the terrible female attacker ran to Banjiao Mountain last night.
At the same time, Knight Spahn immediately sent people to leave Half Angle City at high speed and went to the location of the garrison's spring drills to ask for help. At the same time, he immediately reported everything that happened in Half Angle City to the Governor's Palace of Lille Province.
Not to mention how Knight Spann was worried about his future career, but to say that Knight Robert endured the pain and took a carriage to the ruins of Banjiao Mountain. Also accompanying the carriage was the female knight Ruolin.
But the scene in front of me is enough to make even the calmest person speechless!!!
These people have all been to Banjiao Mountain! Just one day ago, they had formed a team to search for monsters here, and even traveled all over Banjiao Mountain.
When I came yesterday, this place was a typical hilly peak in the southern part of the empire. It stretches for three to four miles and is covered with lush and dense woods. The entire mountain is in the shape of a "U", with the highest peak standing in the middle.
From the top of the mountain, you can look down and see the general outline of Banjiao City in the distance.
But now...
Robert and Ruolin, who were carried out of the carriage, both had their mouths wide open and their eyes widened. They could hardly believe that what was in front of them was the truth!!
God! If this is a nightmare, let it end!!!
Although a local garrison soldier accompanying him swore that this was definitely Banjiao Mountain...or rather, the location where Banjiao Mountain used to be.
But even the soldier himself, who swore the oath, had a blank face and fear in his eyes!
before……
Banjiao Mountain...
No, no, it should be said that there are no more "mountains" here!
What is in front of me is a huge circular pit with a diameter of three miles wide according to visual inspection!!
Where is Banjiao Mountain? Where has the mountain gone?
This question is spinning in everyone's mind!
The carriage stopped right on the edge of this huge circular pit. Robert felt chills all over his body as he looked at the shocking and strange sight in front of him...
This circular crater seems to have been left behind by some kind of violent explosion! It is very likely that, in the knight's guess, the entire mountain was blown up in the explosion! On the edge of the circular crater, there are scattered
There are all kinds of strange stones of different sizes, and there is thick sand on the ground. The original dirt ground has long been invisible.
And this huge circular pit is slightly shallower around it, and becomes deeper toward the middle!
What's even more frightening is the appearance inside this circular pit.
Such a huge round pit is as if the gods from heaven used an invisible pen to divide it into two completely different shapes!
Bounded by the center of the circular pit, in the left half of the pit is a piece of thick ice! The hard ice on the ground seems to have been accumulated for thousands of years! The thick and hard ice, as well as the covering on the ground
The intense frost froze everything on the ground in this half of the pit into a silver world! Even the surface of the stone was covered with a layer of ice crystals!
And if the right half is pitted, it is completely the opposite scene!
If the left half is a land of ice and snow, then the right half is like a desert area!
It’s as if every drop of water on the ground has been burned out! The ground is covered with fine, dry and hard gravel, and some of the ground that is not covered with sand is obviously cracked due to excessive dryness! Here, it is as if a drop of water has been burned out!
No moisture can be found...even the stones look like they have been burned to pieces!
Such a huge circular pit, one on the left and one on the right, has two completely opposite appearances. It makes people feel frightened and even more inexplicably shocked.
After all, he was a knight with a strong character. Robert was the first among everyone to wake up from the shock.
"I guess... there must have been a fierce battle here last night. The level of this kind of battle is unimaginable at our level... The female magician named Vivian is also missing. She must have been there last night.
She must have had a big fight with the female attacker here." The knight analyzed with a stern face: "We don't have to worry about these things... Our question is, where is the little master now! He is not in the military camp, we are
He was already gone when we rescued him! Then he must have been kidnapped by the other party... maybe even..."
Robert didn't say the rest. After all, even a mountain can be turned into a pit out of thin air! The magician's combat power is so powerful... Then, it's nothing to kill a few people.
Robert's face was extremely ugly, but he was still aware of his responsibilities. After all, he was the highest-level leader of everyone in his own party. He could not let his subordinates be discouraged. He gritted his teeth and said: "Maybe the situation is not that bad. Maybe Master, he
He escaped, or maybe the master was kidnapped by a magician. No matter what, the most important thing now is to find the master!"
The knight immediately issued two orders: First, search for anyone who can still move immediately. Second, immediately send someone back to the Castle of Luolin Plain in Cote Province to deliver a message!
Things have gone beyond the control of people like Robert Knight.
Where is this young master now?
This question is on everyone's mind.
So, what is Du Wei doing now?
…
Du Wei is doing something that he never even dreamed of before.
He's... riding a dragon!
Riding on the back of a dragon, flying in the sky! The surrounding wind blew him so hard that he could hardly open his eyes, and he could only wrap his head with clothes. His hands firmly grasped the bulges on the dragon's back.
Scales, watching the giant creature under him quickly shuttle through the clouds, with the vast sea of clouds under his feet... This feeling made Du Wei feel so excited that he wanted to scream!
"Please please please please don't hold on to its scales, okay?" Vivian's pitiful voice came from the side. The female magician lay weakly on the dragon's back, her body pressed tightly against the dragon.
On her back, her delicate little face was already as pale as paper and looked extremely weak. Seeing Du Wei clutching the scales of her dragon, the female magician couldn't help but feel a little distressed in her heart: "It, it, it, it, it doesn't feel right.
"Happily, dragons are proud creatures. My, my, my, this blazing sun is still a child. It, it, it, it, it doesn't like others to scratch its scales..."
"If I don't scratch its scales, where else can I catch it?" Du Wei frowned. As soon as he opened his mouth, wind rushed into his mouth, choking him and causing him to cough repeatedly. He quickly lowered his head and turned to look at the female magician.
The teacher glanced at him: "It's such a strong wind. If you don't find a place to hold on, what will you do if you fall?"
Du Wei said bitterly: "It's okay if you don't catch its scales. First, get rid of that terrible sister of yours. When you get down to a safe place, I'll make a rein for it."
Reins?
Almighty God! Please forgive poor little Vivian...and forgive this terrible guy.
Putting the reins on a dragon...God, does he think dragons are creatures that can be ridden casually?
At this time, the huge red dragon beneath him suddenly let out a mournful cry...
Du Wei was shocked and shouted: "No, your dragon seems to be dying!"
Wei Wei'an also felt uncomfortable: "Scorching Sun is still a baby dragon. It was injured just now, and it has to carry two people on its back. It it..."
This huge red dragon has a shocking wound on its left wing. Such a wound makes half of the dragon's wings a little inflexible when flying, and its body can't help but move a little bit as it flies.
One side is crooked.
"Think of a solution quickly!" Du Wei shouted: "Otherwise we will both fall to death."
"I, I, I, I have all been blackmailed by you! I, I, I can't do anything about it..." Vivian was too frightened to speak. Tears rolled in her big eyes, and she suddenly cried loudly.
Up:
"Wow!!! The outside world is so scary! Teacher! Teacher, come and save me! I want my mother, I want my father! Come and save poor little Vivian!!"
Huh? Now I don’t stutter when I cry?!
Du Wei almost fell off the dragon's back because of this little silly girl! At this time, she actually started crying like a child and called her parents!
He scolded and cursed several times with a sullen face, but at this moment, the dragon under him finally couldn't bear it anymore.
It fought fiercely for half the night. It had consumed almost all its magic power, and was seriously injured in the end. After running away with its master for so long, carrying two people on its back, its wings were still badly injured, and now it had reached its limit.
With a cry of grief, Du Wei felt his body sink suddenly! The giant dragon had fallen from the air...
"Damn it! Think of a way! Your dragon is dying!!"
"Wow...Dad! Mom!! Mom..."
"Stop crying! If you cry any more we will fall to death!!"
