The sudden darkness plunged the imperial capital into panic. The citizens who were still immersed in the atmosphere of mourning were still lingering on the streets for a long time without all dispersing. The sudden darkness of the general, this strange phenomenon, caused the crowd to be in a state of panic for a short time.
The shock of inaction soon turned into panic.
Even the defenders of the Imperial Capital began to become a little chaotic. Although the Royal Guards stationed in the Imperial Capital were the most elite divisions, and the officers tried their best to control their subordinates, more and more soldiers still forgot their responsibilities.
, staring dumbly at the sun that had turned into a black spot in the sky.
sun……
The sun is gone!!!
Chaos began in the city. Although the current commander of the Public Security Bureau was very capable and personally led his team to the streets to maintain order, but on such an important funeral occasion as today, all the big and small bosses in the imperial capital were not in the city.
What makes the generals of the garrison and the commander of the public security department depressed is that they want to ask for instructions from the superiors, but they can't find anyone!
All the senior officials ran to the imperial mausoleum. In the panic, what made the commander of the public security department smile bitterly was: at this moment, the highest-ranking official in the imperial capital seemed to be himself, and the defenders of the Royal Guards.
The division commander.
And what’s even more shocking is yet to come!
About a quarter of an hour after the total solar eclipse, the solar eclipse still has not faded at all, as if the sun has been completely swallowed up and will never come back...
But at this moment, suddenly, in the Imperial City, both the panicked citizens and the soldiers who were trying their best to maintain public order heard an earth-shaking loud noise at the same time!
Rumble…
That loud noise came from the direction of the palace!!
The tallest building in the imperial capital, the symbol of the Roland Empire, the center of the most powerful magic circle on the mainland, the white tower that had made Roland people proud for thousands of years...
More than hundreds of thousands of people witnessed this magnificent and spectacular scene at this moment:
On top of the towering white tower and in the sky, a huge whirlpool suddenly appeared. The whirlpool seemed to be formed by countless storms condensed in an instant, but the strange thing was that there was no wind at all!
In the center of the whirlpool, in the terrifyingly thick cyclone, there were faintly mixed with countless terrifying currents: black, white, golden, purple...
Those currents seemed to be gathering more and more, and seemed to be accumulating energy.
Then, following the roar that almost deafened the ears of everyone in the Imperial Capital, countless people clearly saw that in the center of the cyclone, a thick current fell from the sky and hit the top of the White Tower hard.
On top of that huge magic gem!
Almost in an instant, the current spread all the way down the White Tower. In an instant, the White Tower became like a fire. Under the eclipse weather at this moment, the surroundings were dark. And the White Tower seemed to be inserted into
Huge torch on the earth!!
The entire white tower is covered with a thick ball of light, which is both like a flame and an electric current. The light is burning so brightly that it can be seen clearly even from dozens of miles away! The arcs of light are flying very fast.
Spreading in all directions, one, two, three...
There were more and more arcs of light. Almost soon, with the White Tower as the center, it spread to the entire imperial capital!
People didn't know what happened, and they were all staring at the wonder of the White Tower of the Imperial Palace. For a moment, the entire imperial city suddenly fell into a strange silence! No one spoke anymore, all Zhang Da
He opened his mouth and stared in surprise at the huge torch in the distance...
The White Tower...the magic circle...could it be activated by itself?!
The silence lasted for several minutes. Then, the ground began to vibrate, and the vibration seemed to spread with the White Tower as the center. The vibration was not violent, and it did not seem to cause any damage to the building, but standing on
The crowd on the ground can clearly feel the waves coming from under their feet, oscillating with a specific rhythm!
The crowd suddenly became chaotic!
Push! Squeeze! Trample! When the hundreds of thousands of citizens who originally took to the streets to see off the funeral procession broke into chaos, then a mere few thousand police officers turned into small boats in the ocean, unable to stop them at all!
Even the imperial capital's city guards only numbered 20,000 people, and they were also filled with panic.
It was at this time that Du Wei arrived over the imperial capital. Next to him was Old Chris, who had transformed into a golden dragon. One man and one dragon were suspended side by side in the air. Du Wei also looked at the white tower in surprise, but after a brief shock
, Duwei went to take a peek at old Chris next to him.
Even though he transformed into a dragon, Du Wei still read a hint of excitement and joy in the golden dragon's eyes.
"Is this it?" Du Wei's voice was very low: "The day you have been waiting for a long time is now like this?"
Old Chris came back to his senses, lowered his voice and smiled strangely: "It's now! It's now!" Then he raised a dragon claw and pointed at the white tower that seemed to be burning in the distance: "There! That's there!!
There it is!!”
Although Du Wei was shocked, he quickly thought of what he saw in the underground labyrinth under the White Tower when he visited the palace that night. It seemed to have some weird connection with the Demon Temple ten thousand years ago. At this moment, it seemed that...
But instead, I vaguely guessed something in my heart.
"Hahahahahahaha!!" Old Chris smiled up at the sky: "What are you waiting for! Let's go quickly!! I finally got the treasure left by the master!!"
After saying that, his huge body turned into a ray of golden light and rushed towards the palace.
Du Wei sighed and glanced at his feet. The imperial capital city was in chaos. Above the sky, Du Wei could still vaguely hear the turmoil in the city. He felt a little unbearable and pity in his heart, but he shook his head casually. At this moment
He had no time to hesitate and could only fly after old Chris quickly.
He quickly flew into the palace from the air. Du Wei had no intention of overlooking the panoramic view of the palace from the sky. Old Chris landed first in the center of the palace, at the foot of the White Tower. Then Du Wei landed next to him.
"What are you waiting for?" Du Wei frowned.
Old Chris finally transformed into a human form, but his face was full of awe: "Here..."
Following his finger, Du Wei saw the White Tower in front of him. Standing close to this tall building that was "burning", the dazzling light was almost impossible to look at, but the direction pointed by old Chris was...
It's the gate on the base under the White Tower.
At this moment, the door was actually wide open. The door behind the light was filled with deep darkness, like a wide open mouth.
"Someone went in first?!" Du Wei also frowned, because around the White Tower, there were several people lying on the ground, all wearing red palace magician robes. Although today was a funeral for the regent, the palace
There are still some court magicians left to guard this forbidden area.
These court magicians seemed to have fainted. Du Wei walked over and took a casual look, and immediately saw that these magicians were knocked unconscious by a powerful magic by a top master.
"It should be above the holy level." Du Wei made a judgment: "To be able to defeat these palace magicians in such a short period of time, the strength is definitely not ordinary."
There was a hint of murderous intent in Old Chris's eyes: "Hmph, who dares to get ahead of us and offend the treasure left by Lord Demon God!"
Du Wei frowned: "I guess it may be the master who stayed in the city. So he was one step ahead of us... probably the descending angel hiding in the temple! Maybe, and the Pope himself..."
Old Chris' expression changed, but then he said coldly: "Humph, it doesn't matter even if these guys get in first! The treasure left by the Demon God. Do you think it can be so easy to get in? You are looking for death!"
After saying that, he tossed his robe and strode into the door. Du Wei could only follow behind.
Vivian and Qiao Qiao were far less powerful than Du Wei, so they lagged far behind. When they rushed back to the imperial capital and arrived at the forbidden area of the palace, it was already a quarter of an hour too late.
Standing around the forbidden area of the White Tower, in the forbidden area that was once heavily guarded, there were those fainted court magicians left on the ground. And outside, the imperial guards were mobilizing in chaos, but no imperial guards rushed into the forbidden area. This is also
Thanks to the thousand-year iron rule of the Roland royal family.
"He...could he go in here?" Vivian looked at her sister anxiously.
Qiao Qiao's face was also a little hesitant, but this straightforward girl quickly made a judgment: "It must be! Such a strange scene, this is the center, Du Wei must have ran here! Look, on the ground
These court magicians might have been knocked unconscious by Du Wei!"
"Then, let's go in and look for him." Vivian said. She was about to rush in, but Qiaoqiao had more experience in the world than this simple little silly girl. She thought for a moment, but first
He checked the weapons he was carrying. Because he was participating in the funeral procession, it was naturally impossible for Qiao Qiao to dress up as a warrior in the past. He didn't even carry a sword. Fortunately, he wore a green flute around his waist that could serve as a
Weapons. Vivian was dressed like a noble girl, not even wearing a magician's robe, but she was not afraid, because wands and other things were in her storage ring.
"Okay, go in." Qiaoqiao nodded: "But be careful."
In fact, she also understood that what she said was a bit redundant, but at this moment, looking at this strange and unprecedented scene, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
But just as he was about to pull Vivian inside, he suddenly felt a strong wind blowing over him, and then a golden light fell from the sky, landing directly on the road leading to the White Tower gate in front of the two of them!
This was a tall figure. When he landed on the ground, facing the gate of the White Tower and his back to the two sisters, this guy seemed to be coming in a hurry. His whole body was shining with light, and he was dressed in black armor, but
I don’t know what material it is made of, but it is vaguely covered with various thrilling scratches, and there are many repair marks left after forging. The most serious damage is on his back.
A long scratch was left, as if something had completely split the back of the armor. It was later repaired and re-forged, leaving a trace nearly half a meter long.
And this guy's figure. From a rough look, he's at least close to three meters tall, as if he's a giant standing in front of him! With his stalwart figure, his shoulders are extremely broad, and from behind, he looks like a mountain!
What surprised the two sisters even more was that all of his skin exposed outside the armor was dark black. And the skin was covered with a strange pattern, and they didn't know whether it was born or tattooed on it.
Yes, that pattern seems vaguely to be some kind of totem.
That thick long hair, long and curly, but pulled into a strange long braid, looks like it is full of a rough and wild atmosphere.
More importantly, this guy suddenly fell from the sky, with his back to the two sisters, looking at the gate of the White Tower as if in a trance, without deliberately opening his momentum. But the two sisters felt a strong feeling.
The sense of oppression! This feeling is actually stronger than ever before! There seems to be a depth and power hidden in this person that makes people shudder!
Finally, this guy slowly turned around, and his eyes glanced at Vivian and Qiaoqiao as if inadvertently. It was just such a look. But Vivian and Qiaoqiao felt that the way the other looked at them,
It's like a dragon looking at ants.
It's not that kind of deliberate contempt, but an almost completely natural "ignorance". It seems that in the other person's eyes, most of the creatures in the world, whether they are humans or animals, are no different from gravel.
What shocked Vivian and Qiaoqiao was that the person in front of them was not a human being!!
The obvious and clear facial features immediately made it clear that it was an orc! The majestic and majestic body like a mountain peak was full of majesty that made people look up to it.
Scanned by its eyes, in an instant, Vivian and Qiaoqiao felt as if their whole bodies were stiff almost at the same time. This was not fear or timidity. It was an instinctive trembling! It was as if the orc in front of them could just snap their fingers.
In a short time, most of the living beings in this world can be wiped out.
This intuition is very strong!
Finally, the orc spoke: "Two humans? Do you want to go in?"
It actually seemed to smile, but the orc's face, even if it was a smile, had no sense of beauty at all. The trace of indifference and arrogance was undisguised.
Vivian and Qiaoqiao instinctively felt that the opponent's strength was probably at a level that they could not even imagine! Such speculation shocked the two of them even more.
For a moment, both of them actually forgot to speak, and even the shrewd Qiao Qiao seemed a little dull.
That look in his eyes was like a god looking down at the mortal beings in the world.
Its voice is rough and hoarse, but its tone is exceptionally calm and gentle. This strange contradiction forms a special temperament.
"Then go in." The orc was still smiling: "I happen to be going in too, so we can come together."
After a pause, seeing that the two sisters still didn't respond, the orc seemed to sigh softly: "Humans...could this be the attitude after meeting the gods?" Then it spoke in a too high voice and said lightly: "No need.
I'm afraid, I won't hurt you, because in my eyes, you are not qualified for me to hurt you. Oh, my name is... Hector."
After saying that, it actually strode towards the gate of the White Tower. As it walked, it could hear its smile: "Haha, after waiting for so many years, I actually waited..."
Seeing this tall guy walking to the door, standing in the light of the white tower, he looked back at Qiaoqiao and Vivian: "What? Why don't you come in? This is a rare miracle."
Qiaoqiao glanced at Vivian, but at this moment, the eyes of Vivian, who had always been gentle and weak, revealed a hint of determination without hesitation: "Let's go!"
"Okay." Qiaoqiao nodded, glanced at the orc with squinted eyes, and whispered: "This guy..."
"I can't control that much!" Vivian was unusually determined: "Because, he, he, he went in!"
The most wonderful and interesting thing about everything in this world is that many times, one thing after another seems to be a coincidence, but in the end, people have to wonder if it is fate?
Just after Vivian and Qiaoqiao followed the mysterious orc named Hector into the White Tower...
But they were not the last visitors to the White Tower.
Moments after they entered the White Tower, a visitor came to the forbidden area again.
In the thousand years since the empire was founded, it seems that more outsiders have broken into this royal forbidden area today than in the past thousand years combined.
An old man in white and a woman with blond hair appeared together, fell from the sky, and stood under the white tower.
After the two landed, they seemed to glance at each other. The only difference was that the corners of the old man's eyes were full of wrinkles, and his eyes were full of wisdom. He was naturally Lan Haiyue.
But that woman never opened her eyes from beginning to end.
Queen Medusa seemed to be frowning slightly, with a hint of uneasiness on her face that was so beautiful that it was not like a mortal creature, as if there was a trace of fear left in the air, although she could not identify the fear.
She didn't know where the feeling came from, but she landed here, standing in front of the White Tower. But she vaguely felt an instinctive warning coming from the depths of her soul.
It seems that right here, not far away, there is an existence that makes me extremely awe-inspiring. If I continue walking, I will get closer and closer...
To be precise, this doesn't seem to be a smell, but a momentum that remains in the air, the aftermath of an energy, or something else...
"Beautiful Miss Nicole, no matter how scared you are."
Lan Haiyue sighed: "I can see the uneasiness on your face."
Queen Medusa shook her head and replied in a dull and cold voice: "I... don't know."
Lan Haiyue's smile was a little deep, and her eyes were even more complicated: "It seems that many people have already been here."
Then he frowned and looked at the burning torch and the door hidden in the light: "Do you want to... go in?"
This time, Queen Medusa did not hesitate: "Humph, they are already here!"
Just after the two figures, the old man and the woman, disappeared from the gate of the White Tower, it seemed as if fate had struck the clock, and it seemed as if some kind of fateful power was at work...
Even more sudden than the arrival of this strange celestial phenomenon, it also seemed to disappear without any warning.
The sun that had turned into a black spot in the sky still had not recovered. But the huge cyclone that was originally in the sky above the White Tower suddenly dissipated in just such a moment!
The huge vortex turned into countless air currents. It seemed that they were shattered at the same time and dissipated in the sky, and the flowing currents of various colors also instantly returned to calm.
The White Tower was like a burning torch, but it seemed to be burned out at this moment. Finally, its light began to dim, and after the last trace of light disappeared...
call!
With a soft sound, the door closed automatically.
Then...
The base of the White Tower suddenly started to slowly rotate like a Rubik's Cube. There was a clicking sound of stones rolling. After a few rotations, the door on the base still looked the same. But at this moment, if anyone goes in again, it will
I'm afraid I won't be able to find the way to the previous pioneers!
As old Chris said to Duwei:
"Special doors will only open at special moments."
Imperial history records: On the day of the regent's funeral, the magic circle of the White Tower in the Imperial Capital was activated. After the royal family members rushed back to the palace, His Majesty the Emperor personally entered the White Tower to inspect, but found nothing.
This incident, like the incident in which Du Wei visited the palace at night and accidentally triggered the magic circle, has become a mystery that will never be solved to the world except for a few people involved.
