Extraordinary Sailing

Chapter 644: Infinite Penrose Stairs

Da da da..

The crisp footsteps sounded constantly in the pitch black world, but there was no echo that could be heard again. The deep and thick darkness seemed to be able to completely swallow all sounds and light.

There seems to be nothing in this space that is completely imperceptible. Within the extremely dim lighting technique, the five-person team has only a stone staircase that cannot be seen or seen.

This is the fourth floor of the [Clock Tower] that the adventure team has come to after achieving all reunion on the third floor.

Like many mysterious things, the structure of this [Clock Tower] also uses the most magical number "seven". There are seven floors from the outside to the inside. Moreover, the progressive space continues to grow, and the strength of the force is also increasing.

After the first three explorations, the deepest place that the latecomers were able to advance to was the sixth floor. No one had ever stepped into the seventh floor, let alone knowing what treasures were hidden there.

It's just that it can be vaguely sensed by the various means of the transcendent.

According to the notes received by Jeros, the location of [Ocean Treasure Ancient Scroll] is located in a certain space on the sixth floor "the sea in the tower-the eye of the giant".

"Ivan, are we just going all the way up like this? How do I feel that we have been walking for a long time?"

Anita, who was in charge of the formation at the end of the team, suddenly spoke. The voice was clearly in her ears, but in this special environment, she seemed to be far away, which caused a serious sense of dislocation.

In particular, Aiwen and An Qi felt as if they had returned to the "forgotten desert" in [Hades], and the depressive atmosphere that even their heartbeats could be heard clearly made people a little irritable.

But to his sister's question, Irving didn't know how to answer.

One is that in the dark, human instinct will drive itself upward, not downward. The second is... I took a look at Milan walking beside me, and I can only trust the judgment of this professional "prophet".

Before that, whether it was [Illumination Technique], [Low Frequency Pulse], or even the Great Wizard’s [Spirit Field], or Zhou Konglong’s [Space Perception], any detection method could not extend beyond the boundary of the stone steps.

And every time Ivan was born to fly to find the idea of ​​the boundary of this space, a huge sense of fear would make him repress this idea, and honestly led the team to walk on this stone that can accommodate two carriages in parallel. Quality ladder.

This should be the specific rules that will begin to appear since entering the fourth layer of the core layer. At least under the suppression of the [Clock Tower] whose essence is equivalent to a demigod, almost no one can resist.

suddenly.

When Aiwen used the "data-based vision" to accurately measure the travel distance of his group and walked almost ten kilometers, new changes finally appeared in the front.

"That's a... corner!"

Olivia's tone was faintly excited. In this depressed atmosphere, any new changes are enough to make people feel excited.

However, at the moment when he saw that corner, Milan, who was second in the marching formation of the team, suddenly drew his gun, and the revolver [Black Steel] roared like a beast.

boom!

At the same time, a weird thing that looked a bit like a big dog and a bit like a mutant lizard suddenly jumped out of the 90° corner, and was hit by a powerful bullet with a headshot.

After instinctively shot the opponent, Milan's face showed a trace of consternation.

"Isn't it? These guys are chasing here?"

However, this is just the beginning.

At that corner, the "Daloth Dog Demon" kept jumping out of the void, and every one of them just appeared, regardless of others, and went straight to Milan.

Barking...

Going forward and succeeding in succession is almost like the tide. Standing at the front of the queue, Ivan's head, sharp canine teeth, and long tongue dripping with saliva are the most intense when facing the petals.

I suspected that it wasn't that the dog monsters in the entire [Clock Tower] had madly killed here. What a grudge?

Without hesitation, he took a step forward and waved his hand suddenly.

call--!

Using the power of the "Storm Dragon" to set off a terrifying storm suddenly, the "Daloth Dog Demon" who kept jumping out of the corner flew into the darkness under the stone steps in one breath.

I couldn't hear the sound of landing for a long time.

"Quickly, let's rush over!"

This situation gradually subsided after leading the squad away from the corner and leaving the sensing range of the "Daloth Hound".

At this time, Aiwen couldn't help but put his gaze on Milan:

"How the **** did you do it? Did you steal someone else's wife?"

Milan coughed twice with some guilty conscience:

"Probably, probably, almost.

When I was on the second floor, I was on the water, and there was no corner less than 120 degrees; I barely stayed after meeting on the third floor. Although there are early warnings in spirituality, I didn't expect that they would directly chase here across several spaces. "

While talking, he took out a magic book from his magic pocket, with a huge mechanical dial on the surface, and its name-"Echo of Time and Space" was written on the cover in Lingwen.

Immediately under the light of illumination technique, he slowly opened the catalog of the book, and explained:

"I don't know why I got such a tricky thing after clearing the level!"

The other three wizards in the team looked over at the same time. After seeing what was written in the catalog, they couldn't help but exclaimed collectively: "This is... the inheritance magic book of the ‘Clock Tower School’???"

prior to.

From "The Wandering Mysterious Source: Clock Tower", they have long known that the "Prophecy School" has a high probability of inheriting part of the "Clock Tower School" knowledge (Chapter 635).

In addition to the ability of the "Clock Tower School" to travel up and down the long river of history, it has set up the "All-Seeing Eye" that abandons most attacking witchcraft and is only used to spy on the mysterious source of present and future.

That meaning is the same as the "Tree of Life School" presupposing a greatly simplified [Crown of Miracles] before the ultimate mysterious source [Tree of Life].

This should be the main reason why Milan volunteered to sign up after knowing the destination of the adventure.

Up to now, the distribution of the "School of Prophecy" is even wider than that of the "Alchemy School", and they are present in almost every country on the mainland.

Compared with the "Gem School", which is also influential on the mainland, the "School of Prophecy" already has a Tier 4 crown wizard, and has been able to pay the price to borrow the powerful power of the mysterious source "All Seeing Eye" at the critical moment.

In addition, this "Echoes of Time and Space", the inheritance magic book of the "Clock Tower School", also solidified a universal witchcraft [Space Springboard]. So far, Milan is no longer the weak chicken that used to be, but a... .. Very weak chicken that can run.

Survivability is greatly improved.

The most important point is that under the premise that all members of the "Clock Tower" school have died, this magic book may be a valuable opportunity to inherit the greatest heritage of the wizarding world! Enough to make people reach the sky in one step!

But the prerequisite is to first understand that the "clock tower school" has clearly completed the concrete representation of the "mysterious source" at the beginning. Why did it fail in the final stage of integration? Also swallowed all the members of the school.

If you don't understand this point, embarking on this road rashly is likely to be the end of the sheep's mouth.

Especially under the control of [Clock Tower], the front foot has just sent out the precious inheritance magic book that is one of the foundations of the school, and the back foot has sent the "Daloth Dog Demon" tail to chase after it, which can continuously jump in various spaces. In theory, this simply doesn't make sense.

Unless, the root of these two diametrically opposed behaviors is...two wills!

After helping Milan temporarily analyze the current situation, Ivan patted him on the shoulder:

"The situation is unclear. Let's put it away for now. Two birds in the forest are not as good as a bird in hand, and we will talk about it when we get out from here. But from now on everyone should pay attention to corners with an angle less than 120° to prevent being'Daloth' Sneak attack."

"Ok."

at this time.

After passing the first corner, this space seems to usher in some kind of turning point.

Squeak...

There were louder and louder insects, and they began to ring in the darkness around the stairs. And as they continued to move upward, the voice began to become louder and louder.

Staring at the path under his feet that continued to extend upward into the darkness, like a completely endless ladder, Ivan couldn't help but think of a theory-"Impossible Penrose Ladder".

This theory says that four staircases are connected by four corners, but the direction of each staircase is upward, so it can extend infinitely. But that kind of thing can only fall on two-dimensional paper, and it simply cannot exist in the conventional three-dimensional world.

However, it may not be impossible to realize it in the [Clock Tower], which is focused on space-time research.

It just gave Aiwen the feeling that they weren't always up or down in the conventional sense, but were striding forward in a deeper dark space.

It is actually walking in another dimension outside the three-dimensional world.

quickly.

As if to confirm Ivan’s guess, when they walked through four 90° corners, they successively eliminated several waves of "Daloth Dog Monsters" who jumped out because they felt the breath of Milan. In theory, they should have returned to them. The initial starting point.

What appeared in front of them was still a long stone stairway that was constantly rising, with no end in sight.

Squeak...

At this time, it seems that two parallel lines finally meet. The frantic sound of insects broke through an invisible and intangible barrier, and had already moved rapidly from far to near from the darkness.

Giggle...

Headed by the tall beetle man with a human skull-shaped head and four arms, a large group of weird-shaped bugs emerged from the darkness on both sides of the stairs, and climbed up this branchless rock along a path invisible to humans. ladder.

It seems that under this continuous ladder, there is actually a huge wormhole connected.

In Aiwen’s opinion, the angular bone carapace on the four-armed insect man, UU reading www. uukanshu.com has the same visual sense of humans wearing powered exoskeletons. It's like the [integrated circuit] that I harvested earlier that was contaminated with chitin, and it has traveled from the future to the present.

Actually at this time.

After summing up everyone's experiences, they have realized that [Clock Tower] is very likely to have encountered some unknown pollution, and it is most likely to be related to bugs.

Because as they continue to advance to the inner layer of the [Clock Tower], from the first, second, and third to the current fourth, this kind of weird pollution has become more and more obvious, and the weird and strange looks have become more and more curious. It is endless.

The secret behind is temporarily put aside.

The most important thing they want to do now is-insecticide!

Standing at both ends of the team, Aiwen and Anita, the top two third-tier combat powers, simultaneously opened their mouths.

Boom
