Guild Boss's Ambition

The space ring brought from hometown was damaged in a battle.

I shook my head and said, "No, I have all the necessary tools with me and can leave right away."

Bai Ye approached Locke and smiled: "Then let's take off?"

So, the two of us once again rode on Locke's back. This time our target was the base of the nine-headed filthy dragon. We did not fly directly to the mountain. After fighting with several filthy beasts on the way, we landed at a nearby oasis. Even though we were a long distance apart, the nine-headed filthy dragon still made Locke tremble constantly.

The nine-headed filthy dragon is overwhelmingly powerful and is definitely not a target we can confront head-on.

We have to sneak into the mountains and then look for the door between reality and illusion.

Since Locke's dragon aura will interact with the Nine-headed Filthy Dragon, it is very difficult for us to sneak in the mountains. I originally planned to let Locke stay alone in the oasis and wait for our return, but Bai Ye said that this was not necessary. She said that we would be discovered anyway, and we had to resist the attack of the Nine-headed Filthy Dragon while looking for the door of reality and illusion.

“We will die.”

This is my rating for this program.

"Maybe?" Bai Ye chuckled, then took out a test tube with a drop of red liquid in it: "But as long as we are not dead, it will lead us to the location of the door of reality and illusion."

"What is this? Blood?"

"This is Taimi's blood."

Magician Bai Ye raised his eyebrows and explained, "On the way to the Gate of Reality and Illusion, Taimi suffered minor injuries all over her body. Wherever she passed, her blood might be left. As long as we follow the blood, we can easily find the location of the Gate of Reality and Illusion. Doesn't it sound smart?"

I looked at the mountaintop in the distance: "Do you really think we can survive the attack of that dragon?"

Bai Ye was quite optimistic about my question: "It is impossible to rely on brute force alone, but we are humans with brains. We are on a completely different level from that giant lizard that only knows how to breathe fire. Oh, Locke, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I believe that in another 20 to 30 years, you will be able to develop intelligence comparable to that of humans."

Locke, his self-esteem somewhat damaged, snorted unhappily, and walked to the lake in the oasis alone to drink water.

I asked patiently, "What are your plans?"

Next, Bai Ye took out two dying beasts from the space ring.

"She has plenty of personal space."

I was secretly amazed. Bai Ye took out some more necromancy magic stones and said leisurely, "Even if we can't defeat the nine-headed dragon, we can try to lure it away. Although the strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain is old-fashioned, it is very useful. If we are lucky, these two beasts should be able to help us buy more than 30 seconds."

"More than thirty seconds..."

I couldn't help but frown at this number.

Noticing my expression, the magician Bai Ye smiled and said, "Don't worry, your gravity dragon flies fast enough. With my guidance, I believe we will be able to find the correct location of the door of reality in less than ten seconds. But in the final analysis, the key still lies in whether we can solve the puzzle in front of the door within the remaining twenty seconds."

"Why don't we first confirm the location of the door, and then come back and make a long-term plan?"

"Because we won't have a second chance. With my true eyes, I know very well how powerful the filthy dragon is. It will fall for the first trick, but not the second. What worries me most is that they will strengthen the defense of this mountain because of Taimi's escape. They don't want any living people to return to their original world from here."

The magician Bai Ye looked solemn and stern, and she seemed to have a deep understanding of the affairs of this plane. Even though I had lived in this land for eight years, she, a newcomer, was still closer to the truth than me. Her words had the power to bewitch people, and it was difficult for me to find a reason to convince myself not to obey her orders.

After a short meeting, we boarded the dragon together.

54. Earth Gate (White Night)

(white night)

Mopolis is indeed a city favored by fate.

Just as I was searching around like a headless fly, the clue to the tree of life came to my door.

One of the four origins of the kingdom, a girl representing the element of earth.

From the moment I saw Perseus, I was sure that Taimi was the one I was looking for.

Up to now, I still don’t know the specific details of the Tree of Life, but there is no doubt that as long as I grasp one of the elements, those who know the inside story will come to me on their own. That group of people will have the world’s top backgrounds, and even the high gods may come down to the earth to play the same gambling game with us.

The grand plan bodes well.

Thanks to this accident, I can put aside my research on the Sandu Flute in the first half of the year.

The Kabbalah Tree of Life can satisfy all people's wishes.

But if we cannot leave this world, then no matter how many wishes we have, they will all be empty talk.

The first step towards the Gate of Reality and Illusion is to lure out the nine-headed evil dragon guarding the mountain.

In order to make the bait to lure the dragon away from the mountain more attractive, I peeled off a large piece of scale from the arm of the gravity dragon, and then attached the scales to the two undead beasts. The auras of the dragon clan will attract each other. If the nine-headed filthy dragon is really a dragon clan, then these dragon scales prepared in advance will most likely make it unable to resist the provocation.

As a member of the dragon family, the filthy dragon's wings give it extremely high mobility.

Conservatively speaking, we only have thirty seconds to capture the door of reality and illusion.

Once the thirty-second limit is exceeded, Huabi will die and I will lose my body.

Roar!

An hour after the two of us arrived at the oasis, I asked the undead heading to the designated location to make a provocative roar. The roar took ten seconds to reach our ears, which meant that they were indeed three kilometers away.

Soon, there was movement on the mountain.

The huge and unclear figure suddenly plunged into the clouds, and the oasis one kilometer away was suddenly filled with wind and thunder.

"Are you ready to leave?"

Huabi, who noticed the commotion, became nervous. I ignored his words and focused on calculating and analyzing the information about the Filthy Dragon.

"One second, two seconds, three seconds."

"It takes three seconds to fly 45 meters, seconds to fly kilometers, and a total of seconds for a round trip. In order to prevent it from being alerted in advance and turning back halfway, we have to wait until it is one kilometer away before we can start the action. Therefore, we only have minutes at most. According to past practice, this arrogant filthy dragon must not be flying at full speed yet."

Thirteen seconds after the Nine-Headed Dragon left its base, we also left the oasis on Locke.

The gravity dragon Locke's mobility is far inferior to that of the filthy dragon. Even with my magic blessing, it still took us eleven seconds to fly to the top of the mountain. If it weren't for the limited stock of magic stones in the space ring, I would definitely use more convenient space magic to save these precious eleven seconds.

During the flight, the compass made of Taimi's blood also played a clear role. Twenty-seven seconds after the Nine-Headed Filthy Dragon set off, we found the last remaining location of the blood. It was a bamboo connecting the cliffs on both sides. Although the material of the bamboo is still strong, it has produced many bamboo thorns due to dryness. The blood left by Taimi was pierced by the bamboo.

Twenty-seven and a half seconds after the Nine-Headed Evil Dragon took off, I descended alone to the other side of the bamboo bridge.

At the same time, the undead who was in contact with me also saw the dragon's breath.

They didn't even have time to resist the restraint before the dragon's breath from the sky burned the two undead spirits to ashes.

From the moment the undead disappeared, I didn't have much time left.

Twenty-eight seconds after the Nine-Headed Filthy Dragon set off, the top of my head hit the cloud stone that Taimi mentioned.

There is no doubt that Taimi is a VIP here. The way she entered the Void Gate is something we cannot repeat. Just like Perseus said, we must solve the puzzle to reach the inside of the hall. And the so-called puzzle is not very mysterious. It is so nakedly carved on the stone wall at the door.

"Sorry, Huabi, there is definitely not enough time. You have to figure it out yourself."

"Yeah, okay." The boy agreed without asking any more questions.

As soon as I saw the formation on the stone wall, I knew that it would take all my efforts to solve the puzzle this time. It not only requires a solid foundation of knowledge, but also a lot of mathematical arithmetic. The situation suddenly became a bit like the puzzle game when I first encountered Ulu. It greatly tested my calculation ability, and required me to have enough understanding to comprehend the wisdom on the stone wall.

The puzzles are simple jigsaw puzzles.

The options are placed on the ground, and the concave holes on the stone wall are where the answers are.

"Theory of Four Elements... Eleven Dimensions... Higgs Boson..."

"Tai Chi... Liang Yi... Si Xiang... Ba Gua..."

"One mind, two intentions... the mind creates all things... the three truths are in perfect harmony... the four realms of existence..."

"The use of energy determines one's nature... nature determines one's destiny... what the hell!"

The person who created this puzzle is too much. If I hadn't read a lot of books and dabbled in many ancient cultures, I might not even understand the title of this stone wall. As the saying goes, everything is one. The puzzle on the stone wall is actually the worldview described by various religious beliefs. Every religion in the past thousands of years is a piece of the puzzle. As long as all the puzzle pieces are placed in the right place, a Kabbalah Tree of Life should be able to be pieced together in the end.

"Unknown, wisdom, understanding, compassion, severity..."

"Beauty, victory, grandeur, foundation..."

"The last thing left is..."

"Strange? Where's the puzzle that belongs to the kingdom?"

It took me fourteen seconds to stuff all the puzzle pieces I could see into the stone wall, but the last piece of the kingdom puzzle that should theoretically exist did not appear anywhere in front of the stone wall. Just as I was at a loss, the nine-headed dragon that I had led away also revealed its huge figure in the clouds not far away.

The nine-headed evil dragon found us immediately, and the hot dragon breath rushed towards us.

Facing the dragon's breath, Huabi and the magic dragon Love raised a stone wall together to try to isolate the fierce flames.

The effect of the firewall is very limited, but it is better than nothing. At least in the next few seconds, my specialized body can still hold on. I must find the missing puzzle piece as soon as possible.

wrong……

The fragment was not lost at all, and no one had deliberately hidden it.

It must be here! Right in front of us!

The Kingdom is the tenth Sephiroth of the Kabbalah Tree of Life. It is different from the other nine Sephiroth. Although it is equally sacred and inviolable, it does not come directly from God. It is the feminine womb and the cradle of all things. It cultivates the masculine light.

Wait? Light? That couldn't be it!

I looked around in horror, and saw that there was only one last blue light bug left right below the stone wall. Fortunately, it had not been burned to death by the dragon's breath. I quickly picked it up with my magician's hand and stuffed it into the last position of the puzzle as quickly as possible.

There was a click.

There was a sound of mechanical movement inside the stone wall of the Tree of Life, and then a powerful blue light enveloped our entire body.

After the bright light, we were already inside a temple, and there was no longer the threat of fire and filthy dragons behind us.

"Where is this place?"

After arriving at this strange place, Huabi began to look around curiously. In order to prevent him from knowing too many details, I hurried over to distract his attention: "It seems that we have escaped danger. The brown time and space door in the middle should be the door of reality and illusion that Taimi mentioned to me. As long as you pass through this door, you can go home."

"finally……"

Hearing the word "home", Huabi's eyes flashed with strange colors. He walked closer to the huge door, touched the door frame and asked: "How do we use this door? How is it positioned?"

Based on the information given to me by the Eye of Truth, I answered without a single mistake: "After opening the door, the glory of the kingdom will take you to the place you long for in your heart. Please think about the fountain at the corner of the main entrance of the stone house, and then open the door of reality and illusion. We will gather there first. You will need me to explain to everyone on your behalf after growing up for eight more years."

"I still remember that fountain. I just need to think about it and then open the door."

"Yes, that's all. Don't be so nagging."

Huabi thought for a moment and pointed out a blind spot that I hadn't noticed: "Wait, what about Locke? He doesn't know where the fountain is. I hope he can come back to his hometown with me."

I thought for a moment and said suspiciously, "If Locke has nothing in his mind, he should be teleported to Mopolis with you. But to be on the safe side, I will be responsible for transporting Locke for you. My bone spirit ring has a large space, and Locke can hide in it for a short time. In this way, Locke can follow my ring to the city."

After I put the gravity dragon Locke into the ring, Huabi couldn't wait to open the door of reality and illusion. At the moment the light shot out, I cleverly dodged to the side so that I was not teleported immediately.

Until Huabi's figure disappeared from the light, I carefully closed the door of reality and illusion.

According to Perseus, this hall is not only the place where the gate of reality and illusion is placed, but also one of the four cores of our world. It is a circular space with a radius of about ten meters. A series of mysterious murals are carved on the walls made of unknown materials. In addition to the walls, the ceiling and floor tiles also have similar images.

I quickly memorized the images here in my brain, and then took out the recording crystal to photograph every corner of this hall. After making sure that there was nothing missed, I placed a two-way portal entrance made of gold in this hall in case of emergency.

In this way, after a lot of effort, I opened the door of reality and illusion again an hour later.

This adventure in another dimension was very rewarding.

55. Being watched (Huabi)

(Huabi-Cottontail)

Late night and just before dawn.

I was wearing only a thin black quilt, sitting alone by the fountain waiting.

Looking to the right from the fountain in the moonlight, I can vaguely see the corner of the stone house's roof. The surface of the roof is still very white, without many signs of being worn away by time. Although I am not very familiar with this road to success, the scenery in this area is undoubtedly still in the same state as it was eight years ago.

At this moment, there may be another me living in that strange dimension.

The magician Bai Ye was not teleported to this fountain with me.

I couldn't help feeling confused about this unexpected situation. Locke was still in her space ring. If they couldn't return safely, where should I look for them this time?

“How slow…”

I sat in the corner of the fountain, muttering to myself in annoyance.

"Beggar?"

"Shh, don't be so loud, it's rude."
