The mage arrives

Hearing Ioen's request, Gordon looked embarrassed: "Uh..."

He is just a little five-ring mage.Now when it comes to things like "Emperor of Elements", "Force of Destiny", and "Becoming a God", Gordon feels that he really can't play a role.

Seeing that Gordon didn't agree to his request, Ai En'ou knew it well.He glanced at Gordon with a look of "this god has already seen your thoughts", and then said, "Young man, don't put on such an expression of 'it has nothing to do with me'. This matter, Aisa The whole experiment of Augustus is closely related to your life experience and origin. Don't you want to know why your mother has one of the Jewels of Destiny?"

Gordon shrugged: "So what if I know my life experience? I'm just an ordinary mage who is working hard for my territory and hopes to improve my arcane skills as soon as possible. No matter my blood is from the Freeman family, Whether it is related to that elemental emperor, it has no effect on my current life."

Ioen shook his head: "Young man, don't always act like 'I am ordinary, my life is simple'. You are not simple at all. Did you not pay attention to the words I just used? Ao En Sa Augustus' experiment is closely related to your 'life experience' and 'origin'."

Hearing that the God of Knowledge said the words "life experience" and "origin" separately, and especially emphasized them, Gordon's heart skipped a beat for no reason.

His life experience is his blood and family traced upwards as an individual of "Gordon Freeman".

The word "origin" contains a deeper meaning.

Where do I come from?

Of course, Gordon knew very well that he had crossed the crystal wall system from the earth of another multiverse, and came to the world of Telos.

But do other people know?

With Ioun's ability, it may be possible to see that the soul hidden in Gordon Freeman's body is an outsider.Not natives of the main material world.

Although such things as soul possession or outer world traveler are rare, in this world of sword and magic, it is not an unprecedented anecdote.So Gordon wouldn't worry that just because of this, he would be treated as a guinea pig, caught and sliced ​​for experiments.

Of course, if his secret was known by others, he would still feel a little worried.

But Ioan's words.Indeed, Gordon's curiosity was aroused.

Not only because the elemental emperor's shocking experiment may be related to his secret as a time traveler, but also because he is also very interested in the origin of Gordon Freeman himself.

In the memory he had already fused with the original owner of the body, there was information about his mother.Not a lot, but very distinct.

It was a beautiful, gentle, and intellectual woman.However, although she is a mage, her arcane attainments are not very good, and she is only a third-ring mage, and she is not a well-known master. Most of the spells are self-taught, and she has only consulted a few old people who are also not famous. mage.

That kind of people.No matter how you think about it, it is impossible to get involved with a powerful mage like Isa Augustus who can rival the gods.So Gordon suspected that the Olanya necklace, one of the four-piece set of Destiny Jewelry, was only obtained by his mother by accident.It's like Longo Ritter got the ring of destiny by accident.

But he couldn't ignore Ioen's words.

Therefore, only by going deep into Mount Weisula and finding out, can we uncover the mystery and know all the answers.

Besides.In order to solve the erosion and pollution of the environment of the peninsula by the special energy in the White River, Gordon also planned to go to the mountains.

Seeing Gordon's face moved, Ioan knew that he had persuaded this unique believer to go to Vesula Mountain.Fortunately, he is not the kind of bastard god who deceives believers, and on the contrary, he has special value and potential for people like Gordon.Will take care of it.

"Before I gave you the Fate Bracelet, two of the jewelry were in your hands. This is really a coincidence. I have to say. In the dark, it seems that the power of fate is pushing it. Now , you already have three pieces of the four-piece jewelry set. The last piece of jewelry, the Destiny Earrings, is in Mount Vesula."

After Ain'ou finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the ground.His left index finger was like a paintbrush, waving in the air, and soon, a complex and detailed map appeared on the hard stone floor.

"This is the map of the palace designed and built by Isa Augustus himself in Mount Vesula. And the destiny earrings are hidden here, in the bedroom of the "qing ren" of the elemental emperor."

Looking at the map on the ground that accurately marked every passage and every room, Gordon couldn't help admiring secretly, the power of the God of Knowledge really wasn't built.The ten-year opening period of Vesula Mountain is coming soon, and many adventurers who covet the hidden treasures in it will come.But among these adventurers, not many know that the real owner of the palace in the mountain is Isa Augustus, the Emperor of Elements.Most people still simply believe that the palace in Vesula Mountain is just the work of a certain Nether Arcanist.

In addition, Gordon is probably the only adventurer who has such a detailed map of the interior of Mount Vesula.

Asymmetric information is a huge advantage.

Gordon took a closer look at the map on the ground, and quickly discovered something unusual: "Master Ioan, the structural design of these buildings in the mountains seems a bit weird and unreasonable. Is there any secret in it? "

Ioen smiled and said, "You will understand when you stand by my side."

From where Gordon stood, the bottom of the mountain and the top of the mountain were the most logical positions on the map.But from the perspective of Ain'ou on the opposite side, the entire Vesula Mountain will be turned upside down.

But after Gordon did so, he immediately understood why Ainou said such words.

After the map was turned upside down, the building structure in the mountain became more reasonable.A possibility came to Gordon's mind: "Lord Ioun, was this entire Vesula Mountain a floating city back then?"

Ioun nodded and smiled, with a childish expression.He said: "You are very smart, young man, you have grasped the key point so quickly. Mount Vesula is where the elemental emperor Isa Augustus cut off a mountain peak from the highest mountain range with astonishing power. , and then turned it upside down to transform it into a floating city. If you go all the way north now, through the barren tundra, and go deep into the more distant glaciers, you can see a strange mountain with a smooth top among the mountains."

"I've had enough dealings with the tundra orcs, so this kind of polar self-guided tour, you should go on your own." Gordon thanked Ioan for his suggestion.

Gordon also learned about the process of creating the floating city by the great arcanists of the Netherdulan Magic Empire from various incomplete ancient books.

They usually use one or several Miser energy cores as the core, first build a central platform, and then create an anti-gravity circle and a special circle that can continuously generate earth element energy and absorb rocks on it.

Then, with the passage of time, the stones on the earth were absorbed to the central platform, and then gradually bonded and transformed into a whole under the action of the energy of the earth element.

Just like a coral reef, the platform suspended in the air grew bigger and bigger, and finally became a small island suspended in the air with an area of ​​tens of square kilometers.Archmages can then build their own structures on top of it.During the formation of the entire floating city, apart from the need to continuously increase the size of the anti-gravity circle, there are not many things to worry about.It takes more thought to build a floating city base than to build a flying battleship.

But, the great arcanists of the Netherdulan Magic Empire, relying on their powerful spellcasting ability, sometimes do simple and rude things.For example, the Antik Ionidas who directly cut off a piece of the palace where the ice goblin queen lived and brought it back to the main material world.

Asa Augustus, the emperor of the elements, is obviously a hundred times stronger than the builder of the magic laboratory under the Sea Cliff Fort.What he did was even more exaggerated.He actually cut off an entire mountain peak with an area of ​​hundreds of square meters, and then turned it over to use it as the base of the floating city.

According to Ioun's description, for that elemental emperor, it was as easy as cooking a white radish.

The floating city built by Asa Augustus is one of the largest among the floating cities built during the Netherdulan magic empire.However, after His Majesty the Elemental Emperor retired because of his path to becoming a god, the Floating Void City was handed over to other great arcanists to take care of it.Even at the end of the empire, there was a problem with the internal power source of this floating city, unable to keep floating in the air, and fell to the ground. Asa Augustus did not show up to save the architectural masterpiece that he had spent a lot of painstaking efforts on.

In the end, the Floating Void City not only lost the power to hover and fly, it was even difficult to maintain balance in the air, and finally turned upside down one by one, falling to the Haiwen Peninsula in an upside-down posture, and then formed Weisula Mountain.

Naturally, all the surface buildings on the floating city have been destroyed.Now the adventurers of the fourth era can explore only the underground buildings in the city - and all of them are in an inverted state.

It's a little exciting to think about taking an adventure in a flipped floating city.And most importantly, since Mount Weisula was once a floating city, there must be a Miser energy core in the city to maintain the floating city's anti-gravity circle.Judging from the size of Mount Vesula, the number of Mither energy cores needed may be far more than one.

Then the cause of the pollution of the Baihe River is obvious.
