Chapter 387 The Lost Floating City Underground
Pearl Sea,
The breeze blows gently on the blue sea, causing ripples and sparkling waves, like countless broken diamonds in the sunlight. flashes down.
In the vast sea, a lonely island lies quietly. This island seems to be a leftover pearl of nature, gently surrounded by the blue ocean.
In the center of the island, a raised hill stands proudly, with lush vegetation, lush trees and colorful wild flowers intertwined together, forming a beautiful natural picture. A gust of sea breeze blew by, rustling the leaves, accompanied by the crisp chirping of birds, which seemed to be the whisper of nature, adding a bit of vitality to this silent island.
No one has come to this small island in the sea for who knows how long, but today the tranquility was suddenly broken.
A dark gray shadow suddenly appeared on the beach beside the island. When the shadow dissipated, the figures of Lis and Joyce appeared on the beach.
Joyce looked at the island, which had not changed at all, and sighed in his heart.
Li Si was still feeling the special charm of [Shadow Jumping] in his heart.
He has broken through to the gold level and can already try to master the powerful assassin skill [Shadow Jump].
Although [Shadow Jump] is not as simple and convenient as space teleportation, it is better at being stealthy, and its practical effect is even better.
Joyce looked at Li Si without disturbing him.
After a while, Li Si raised his head and observed the island in front of him.
Is this where Azera’s floating city is?
Except for its extremely remote location, it looks like an extremely ordinary island in the sea.
The island is not large, only a few square kilometers in area. It seems that it is almost impossible to hide a floating city.
Li Si thought for a moment and tried to use his mental power to spread out to the hills of the island in front of him. It was relatively easy for gold-level mental power to cover the island in front of him.
After exploring for a while, Li Si took back his mental power.
Joyce looked at Li Si's movements with a smile and did not stop him.
"How is it? Did you find anything?"
"No."
Li Si shook his head. The detection information fed back by his mental power showed that the island in front of him and the hills in the middle were all made of soil and rocks. Except for the active elements of earth and water, there were no Nothing special about it.
“Of course, if it was discovered so easily, this floating city would not have been silent for so long.”
Joyce smiled slightly and walked towards the island hills.
Seeing this, Li Si quickly followed. After leaving a spatial coordinate on the beach of the island, he followed Joyce.
The two of them walked toward the hills in front of them, passed through the lush green jungle, and came to a small cave.
Li Si took a look at the small cave. It was more like a slender crack formed by the rupture of the rock layer than a cave.
Standing at the entrance of the cave and looking down, the deep and dark cave continues to spread underground.
Is the floating city underground?
Li Si looked at it curiously and followed Joyce towards the cave.
Joyce didn't appear to introduce it to Li Si, but silently moved forward downwards.
The two walked quietly down, their footsteps echoing in the quiet cave. Although there was no light source in the cave, it was not a problem for Joyce and Lis, who had dark vision. No problem.
Li Si silently calculated in his heart that when he had descended more than a hundred meters, the slope of the cave finally eased.
His spirits were lifted, were he finally reaching his destination?
After passing through an extremely narrow gap sideways and walking forward for dozens of steps, Joyce's figure in front of Li Si suddenly disappeared into the air.
Li Si was silent for a moment and walked straight forward without stopping.
Just as he passed the place where Joyce disappeared just now, Li Si had a vague feeling of passing through a transparent film.
In the next moment, Li Si suddenly became enlightened.
At the same time, a new prompt came from Li Si's system panel.
——
Ding~
[You have entered a special secret realm [Lost Underground Floating City] (legendary level)! ]
[It is detected that you have entered a special secret realm [The Lost Underground Floating City], and the special mission is triggered! ]

[Legendary Series Missions (First Ring): Peripheral Exploration]
[Mission Introduction: Countless time has passed, and the floating city of Azera relied on the abundant magic power of Mythra's core to survive. It is in operation, but the outer buildings have been eroded by time and dilapidated, and the protective power has also been greatly reduced.

[Task reward: 1000w experience points, Azela floating city map, start the next stage of the task]
[Current exploration degree: 0%]——
Although the system beeped, Li Si was no longer in the mood to care about this.
As soon as I walked out of the deep cave, my eyes suddenly opened up, as if I had stepped into another world.
In front of Li Si, an extremely huge hole lay across the ground. It was like a giant picture carefully carved by the hands of nature, full of vastness and mystery.
The cavity is like an upside-down stone bowl. The cross-section of the rock cave wall is smooth, as if the underground rock layer was suddenly completely swallowed up by a special force.
In the hollow, a blue floating city stood there quietly, its lower part completely submerged in the deep sea water at the bottom of the hollow, like a bustling city on the water. The floating city is filled with light, and the stars are emitting a soft and mysterious light, as if the stars have fallen and turned into the lights of the city. These lights interweave into a colorful picture in the dark hollow, reflecting the floating city like a dream.
Is this the Azera Floating City?
The area of this hollow is much larger than the island above. Li Si only made a rough estimate. The area of the floating city in front of him is about the same as that of Dan Erluo Port.
Standing in the cracks in the rock wall, Joyce and Lees were as inconspicuous as ants in front of this behemoth.
Li Si looked at the floating city in front of him quietly, and his mind was shaken by it.
Feeling the tranquility and mystery brought by this silent floating city in front of me, I felt an inexplicable awe and yearning in my heart.
Huh~
After briefly calming down, Li Si quietly looked at the whole picture of Azera's floating city in front of him.
The entire floating city is mainly composed of two parts. The middle part is a magic city built on an inverted mountain. This area is the main body of the floating city, occupying most of the area. You can vaguely see the scattered The buildings are distributed in a circle, guarding the core tower in the middle.
At the same time, there are eight floating islands connected to the central floating city through huge bridges. The floating islands are symmetrically distributed, but the building facilities on them are different.
In the central core area of the floating city, a blue tower stands majestically, which is the most eye-catching place in the entire floating city. This tall tower is covered with a layer of azure crystal stone, faintly flashing with a faint magical aura, reflecting a gorgeous brilliance.
From bottom to top, there is a solid and broad tower base, a cylindrical multiple tower body, a pointed cone and a semicircular tower top. The structural design of the entire tower is ingenious and unique. From the base of the tower upwards, the tower body gradually narrows, forming an elegant streamlined design. It seems to be carved with complex magic runes, and there is a faint blue light flowing between the runes, as if There is life generally jumping and flickering. The spire of the tower is the most eye-catching. It is sharp and straight, as if it is going to reach the sky. A huge azure gem is inlaid on the top of the tower, shining with dazzling light, as if a real star is inlaid on the top of the tower, illuminating the entire hollow.
There are many small and regular buildings scattered around the tower. The design of these buildings should have a special planning and layout. Although they are small, they are exquisitely designed and unified in style, forming a perfect echo with the tall tower at the core.
There are eight floating islands symmetrically distributed around the floating city, with different characteristic buildings, all of which should have different uses.
Li Si could only recognize that the two symmetrical sky islands on the left and right sides should be the airport of this floating city. This port-like terminal design should be for flying ships to dock and board the floating city in this way.
Only this kind of information can be obtained from the outside. The entire floating city looks more like an extremely luxurious and exquisite dream city, embodying the essence of human wisdom.
But it was enough to make Li Si's heart surge, and he felt a little more anxious to master this floating city.
In addition to the bright blue gem on the tower of the floating city, there are many magical lights shining in the floating city. It seems that the floating city is still operating normally.
Li Si was suddenly startled when he thought of this, and turned his head to look behind.
Behind was the same dark cave where he and Joyce had walked.
Li Si tried to take a few steps back. Sure enough, after having that inexplicable feeling again, the floating city in front of him suddenly disappeared, leaving only deep darkness.
Stepping forward again, Li Si almost guessed what was going on.
It should be the camouflage and hiding ability of the floating city. The floating city in front of me should have been maintaining a hidden state, so my previous investigation did not yield any results.
If you think about it, it is true that this is the power of the floating city after all. It is impossible for a golden mage like me to see through it.
In this way, my great-grandfather was really lucky to be able to discover this place.
If this were not the case, this floating city would not have stayed here for thousands of years, quietly telling of its past glory.
By the way, is this special ability the legendary [Mysterious Lock]?
[Mystery Lock] is a permanent magic barrier or realm created by legendary level spells. Legend has it that it is a high-level magic skill created by elves to protect certain specific existences. However, this ability later It's not just the elves who have control.
[Mystery Lock] The abilities in the enchantment are different. They are formed according to the different designs and structures of the creator when establishing the myth lock enchantment. Resident spells, updateable spells, and spells can be set in the myth lock. Certain spells are disabled, but the main ability of the Mystic Lock is the ability to be stealthy and invisible.
Just like what the floating city in front of you shows.
Although Li Si has learned the knowledge related to myth locks from [Flame of Judgment], it is a pity that the teacher does not have more detailed content and construction methods.
I didn’t expect to meet you here!
"Little Lis, how are you?"
Joyce looked at Lis with a smile, and then said:
"When Brandon and I came here for the first time, we were also shocked. I never thought that such a magnificent floating city would be under this small island."
"Yes, When I saw it, I even felt a little bit insignificant."
Li Si nodded and did not hide his feelings.
Perhaps this is the spiritual impact brought by the spectacle?
“Okay, let’s go!”
Joyce didn't say anything, grabbed Li Si's shoulders and dived into the shadows.
The next moment, the figures of Joyce and Lis appeared on a floating island on the left side of the floating city, which was the airport that Lis noticed before.
After setting foot in the floating city, Joyce's expression became much more serious and he said to Li Si:
"From now on, listen carefully to everything I say and remember it."< br>
“This is the information that all of us got from your great-grandfather’s exploration of this floating city.”
"Even if you are now a gold-level arcanist, don't be careless. You must know that your great-grandfather died of serious injuries in the floating city."
"I understand, Uncle Joyce. "
Li Si nodded, he was still full of awe for this floating city.
"Well, you follow me this time. If you think about it later, you will have to come alone."
Joyce said in a deep voice, and then introduced to Li Si:
"Our current location is in the airport of the floating city. This is the safest place in the floating city. We must be careful when going to other places."
"In this floating city, everyone Most of these magic traps are inside the buildings, and there are almost none on the roads outside. "
"It is more likely that they are the defense methods of this floating city, and they are more likely to be those who lived in the buildings and rooms before. The magicians arranged it privately."
"Is it safe to walk outside?"
"That's not true. You will see it later."
Joyce said with a smile.
The two continued to walk forward. Li Si carefully looked at the styles of the surrounding buildings. There were buildings of similar styles on both sides of the straight and wide road. What was curious was that there were inscriptions on the walls of each house. Similar magic runes and circuits, I don’t know what they do.
But this place is different from the tall tower in the distance. The enchanted rune circuits on the building here are quite dim, making it almost impossible for Li Si to distinguish them.
At the same time, as Li Si and Joyce moved forward, Li Si noticed that not all the buildings on the empty island were intact. Many buildings were dilapidated or even completely destroyed. There are only ruins left.
It seems that as mentioned in the system mission just now, the outer periphery of this floating city was severely damaged. Looking at the traces, it seems that someone else was directly attacked from the outside?
Li Si buried the doubts in his heart while listening to Joyce talk about the exploration experience he and his father Brandon had here.
At this moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared on Li Si's shoulder.
