rushed for several miles against the wind and sand, and finally the tower
half-hidden in the sand dunes appeared in front of Xia Fan.
From a close look, it will be found that its volume is by no means small, its
outline is similar to a tetrahedral cone, except for the absence of a spire,
it looks like a special pyramid. There is a long ladder on each slope,
reaching the top platform, and the silver light above it is clearly
identifiable.
At this time, the sandstorm was too big to be ignored. He had to cover his
mouth when he spoke, otherwise he would be filled with sand.
"We... are on the top of the tower now?" Taxis whispered.
"It's about nine out of ten." Xia Fan looked to the sky-after experiencing the
roar of the shaking mountains several times, the cracks in the night became
wider and wider. Through these gaps, he saw a piece of burning scorched earth
and far away. The Ambergris River reflected in red light. Such a magnificent
scenery is by no means what can be seen on the surface. From the perspective
of the bird's eye view, it is basically equivalent to the leaning ancient
stone tower.
"It turns out that Denglong Road doesn't need to climb all the way up. It can
also go flat...cough cough...and you can reach the top of the tower." The
girl's eyes were full of sighs.
"So you did complete the Dragon Climbing Examination." Xia Fan climbed up the
stairs against the increasingly strong wind, while taking time to talk to the
other party.
He noticed that Taksis’s voice was getting weaker and weaker, and in terms of
her character, she definitely did not belong to the type of person who would
give up easily, so pure encouragement was meaningless. He can only use
constant conversations to improve her mind, so as not to fall into shock
completely at this time.
"With your power... can count?" She barely smiled.
"The tower says it's okay." Xia Fan said confidently, "If anyone has any
objections, let them talk to Denglong Tower."
She glared at him angrily and funny, but did not continue to refute.
Soon, the two of them boarded the Banpo position, seeing the top of the tower
close at hand.
But at this moment, a purple beam of light suddenly illuminated the entire
sky—it passed through cracks, fell straight to the scorched earth, and then
smashed into countless flashes of light! What blocks it is a transparent
barrier. Under the reflection of thousands of light spots, the barrier can be
seen extending from the earth all the way up, as if it envelops the entire
world.
What followed was an even more violent tremor!
Xia Fan finally knows why there will be waves of shocks in the tower. No
matter where the beam of light came from, it meant that someone was attacking
the Dragon Tower.
And this kind of long-range strike is definitely not something ordinary spells
and artillery can achieve.
The tower has been able to hold up to the present, and most of the impact is
blocked by the transparent barrier, but from the wider and wider cracks in the
sky, it can be seen that this barrier is far from advanced.
When it breaks, what the stone tower will become, this question can be guessed
without even thinking about it.
Thinking about this, Xia Fan speeded up his actions a little bit-the only hope
of getting out of the tower at the moment lies on the top of the tower, and he
must leave the Dragon Tower before the defense collapses!
But the violent vibration almost made it difficult for him to move. Every time
he arched his body a little, the wind pressure would suddenly increase a lot,
and there was an illusion that he would be washed away at any time. At the
same time, he was holding a dragonborn in his arms, making it impossible for
him to put his body completely on the stone ladder.
It’s even worse.
As if to confirm his guess, the barrier that had been struggling to support
suddenly burst before the purple beam of light disappeared!
The moment it shattered, the spark-like streamer instantly engulfed the entire
night sky.
Several deep cliffs suddenly appeared in the desert at the foot, the dunes
fell down, and dark red lava spewed out from under the ravines.
In this ruining scene, the tower under the feet of the two of them also began
to overturn and sink, and the originally vertical stairs gradually turned into
a straight road. Countless cracks spread on the stone, the crackling sound
kept ringing, and the whole stone tower was about to fall apart!
"Hold on to me!" Xia Fan didn't have time to think too much, he ran for a few
steps, and then a vertical sliding shovel jumped out of the stairs, using
inertia to slide directly on the ** of the tower, the speed instantly
increased several times.
Taxis also realized the idea of a partner. She stretched out the only hand
that could still move, changing her fingertips into a dragon's claws, and when
the two of them were about to leap over the top of the tower, they clasped
them into the rock wall!
Her finger snapped!
But this "anchor point" also slowed the sliding speed of the two people a lot.
At this moment, the top of the tower has completely overturned, becoming a
vertical facade, and the silver-glowing center is exposed to them for the
first time.
It is an object similar to an obelisk, with a round gem embedded at the bottom
of it, and the shimmering silver light also originates from that gem.
"Is this really an exit?" Taxis' voice became a little anxious.
"Anyway, we have nowhere else to go!" Xia Fan took a deep breath, kicked and
jumped towards the obelisk, and when he was about to cross over, he used all
his strength to climb the edge of the stele, so that he was soaked in silver
light. .
At this moment, the surrounding noise suddenly disappeared.
, even with time, it seems to be still.
He felt the silver light flooding into his mind like a tide, and they were
arranged in an orderly manner in the depths of his consciousness.
What's the situation?
Since Denglong Tower has the ability to create such a real illusion, UU
reading www. uukanshu.com quietly sent him from the bottom of the tower to the
top of the tower, why not send him back now?
Is it... I really guessed wrong, this lighthouse-like sand sea building is not
the so-called exit?
What are these silver squares?
Thoughts are like tentacles.
When Xia Fan came up with this idea, his consciousness was connected with the
cube.
The sights in his field of vision have all turned into incomparably deep
darkness, and even the Taksis in his arms has not been seen. The only thing
there is information that keeps pouring in from the box.
Is this... the reward for climbing the Dragon Tower?
No, Xia Fan realized that it is not only as simple as turning into a dragon
descendant—it is more like the essence of the dragon tower.
In the complex and vast information, he saw the continuously enlarged details
of his body, as well as the various information connected with it: muscles,
bones, blood vessels, cells... and even deeper genetically encoded
information.
And he can not only see, but also understand the meaning of the information.
Those code fragments originally contained a large number of useless base
pairs, but under the assignment of new information, they had a completely new
definition. By adjusting and reorganizing the fragments, they actually contain
almost unlimited possibilities.
What drives them is Qi.
Why are demons born among humans, why some demons can continue themselves, why
some demons can only appear by chance, Xia Fan faintly found the answer.
