"Your Excellency, what do you mean!? Never!" Jayne yelled subconsciously.
And the next sentence in his heart was "Are you crazy?"
Just borrowing him a hundred courage, he did not dare to speak out in public.
"Why not?" Aurora looked at him, "Because it is dangerous? But which
exploration is not dangerous?"
Jayne was speechless for a while.
The Duke turned his attention to everyone present, "In order to open up
routes, our ancestors crossed the endless sea, the raging sea full of thunder
and storms, they have witnessed submarine volcanoes and undercurrent vortices,
and they also fought giant sea beasts. Yes. The casualties paid are difficult
to count, but it also allows the power of the empire to extend to all corners
of the world!"
"These routes have brought us a lot of wealth, technology and the resources of
the entire world island, and have also turned the empire into a prosperous
state. But this does not mean that we can stop and take a rest, because other
people still have not given up. Catch up! We can't stand still because of
danger, and can't be content with enjoyment just because of being in a high
position-as the leader, there is no reason to back down at this time!"
"This is definitely not a reckless trip. There are ways to avoid suffocation
and cold. We are the elite of the empire, and most of the people are far more
powerful than these scum scum. Even they can come back alive, what am I
waiting for? So scary?"
Having said that, she opened her hands and said, "Everyone, this is an
adventure that will be remembered in the annals of history. It represents the
first time people set foot on a land outside the world. This is far more
important than discovering the new world! I will not force you. Those who are
willing to accept this honor, please take a step forward."
Jayne Van Ritter was surprised to find that he was shaken.
Once he was also one of the pioneers, following the family's fleet in a
rampage in unfamiliar waters, expanding the boundaries of the chart a little
bit, and bringing back a lot of wealth for the family.
But after climbing to the position of admiral, he hasn't made any risky
decisions for a long time. Every order is as safe as possible. The command
issued by the commander is only to ensure that there is no fault and no merit.
Now that I think about it, he hasn't changed in this person for more than ten
years, and his life seems to have stagnated.
Therefore, the other party is the Duke and the Chief Minister trusted by His
Majesty the Emperor.
She could obviously suspend the exploration with the reason that the passage
is about to be closed, and wait for the two survivors to recover before
interrogating the situation after the black barrier in detail. Then wait
another ten days and a half to prepare for the next exploration with better
protective measures, and no one can take responsibility for her.
But she chose the road where every second counts.
Several wizards stood up.
The unknown is more tempting to them than sweet poison.
At this time, Jayne noticed that Aurora glanced at him, and there was an
indescribable meaning in the narrow eyebrows, which seemed to be contemptuous
and mixed with a little disappointment.
A flame that hadn't been seen for a long time suddenly rose from the bottom of
his heart.
What about the Duke? She is a woman after all!
How could he make women look down upon?
"I'm going too." Jayne stepped forward and joined the crowd.
Aurora licked the corner of her mouth, with a little smile in her eyes, "Very
well, prepare now."
...
With the experience of the first two times, preparations for the third trip
were quickly completed.
Jayne sat on the bow of the ship, looking at the gate of the deep ghost, the
little courage and temper that he had just gathered had been turned into
bubbles in the snow of the permafrost.
What are you doing?
Do you use flesh and blood to pass through the stomach of the evil demon? It
doesn't seem like a wise move at all--
"Don't worry." Suddenly a hand was placed on his shoulder.
He turned his head, and the other party was Aurora.
"Your Excellency..."
"I'm glad you can stand up." She bent down and whispered in his ear.
Jayne couldn't help but stunned, he still heard the other person speaking in
this tone for the first time. "I……"
"In the past explorers, the blood family only accounted for a small part, and
the figure of the mages is increasing-their desire for the unknown is hardly
concealed, but the blood family chooses to spend precious time in the tomb."
He smiled and said, "I'm very happy to see someone like you in the same class.
If you can come back safely this time, I will give you a small reward."
Duke's...reward?
Before Jain could think about the meaning of the other party's words, Aurora
waved his arm and said, "Set sail!"
With a tremor behind him, the tentacles pushed the hull slowly closer to the
stand gate.
Looking at the sky full of tentacles, Jayne bit his scalp and closed his eyes,
and handed his fate to the goddess of the moon.
He felt enveloped by an extremely bad cold breath, and his body felt like he
had fallen into a bottomless quagmire. Just as he couldn't help shouting, the
world suddenly became completely silent!
Jayne opened his eyes slowly, and then took a breath of cold breath—
I saw the permafrost with ice floe disappear, and replaced by a rolling
mountain range.
The sky was no longer a hazy blue-gray, but was completely replaced by night,
and the stars above the head were brighter than ever before, like a densely
woven sea of stars.
Can't be wrong, they are already in another world!
"Your Excellency Duke!"
He took off his mask and turned around and shouted, but the latter made no
response.
The gas in the airbag spouted out at a very fast speed, forming a small white
mist in front of him, and he could even feel the leather tube swaying from
side to side, as if trying to break free of his grasp!
No, this discouragement speed is too fast!
Jain quickly re-applied the mask to his face.
At the same time, he noticed that he was not the only one who did this. The
other two mages were also yelling, but he couldn't hear each other.
This world does not allow people to communicate with each other.
Jayne stood up cautiously and looked towards the bottom of the boat. Below is
a solid ice crystal, which has been spreading far away, almost the same as
Silisti’s largest Yingyue Lake. The warship was completely stranded and could
no longer move forward on its own power.
wrong!
Jain suddenly realized that this piece of ice is part of the permafrost, but
because of the extremely low temperature, it has completely solidified!
What about their world?
The commander turned his head abruptly--
Then he saw a scene that made his scalp numb.
Behind it is an extremely magnificent high wall, or... the body of the black
barrier. It is taller and taller than any mountain in Silisti, and it is
almost always inserted into the sky from the ground, even if you raise your
head, you can't see the whole picture. What's more frightening is that there
are no bumps on the surface, almost a smooth straight line. The shock brought
by this craft made Jayne stunned.
Of course he knows what this means.
The larger the object, the more difficult it is to manufacture. A small error
may be magnified into unacceptable defects. This is why the cost of a first-
class warship can generally be three to four times more than that of a second-
class warship.
And this wall is not only high, but also painted silvery white, you can tell
at a glance that it is not a natural formation. With such an incredible
discovery, anyone would be shocked and confused, and it's no wonder the death
row prisoners couldn't even speak a word.
"So, this is the land after the black barrier." Aurora's voice suddenly
sounded in his mind, "Don't panic, everyone, we have limited time. If there is
anything we want to verify, we can implement it now. "
This is the magic sound technique in illusion!
Jayne reacted. Although the words could not be heard, the spells could still
take effect here.
"Your Excellency, you better come and have a look, the hourglass's reaction is
very strange, completely different from the black barrier." A mage replied.
As he said, the falling speed of the fine sand in the glass bottle has
obviously slowed down a lot. The difference between the two is so huge that it
can be directly observed with the naked eye.
"Could it be that the time flow rate here is different?"
"No, I think it's another problem." Aurora shook her head, and she raised her
arm to show everyone, "After crossing the black barrier, I have been paying
attention to the pulse beating. It has been basically from the beginning to
the present. There is no change, which proves that the time we feel is no
different from the permafrost."
"Sir, the torch cannot be lit here."
"The kite flying failed!"
"The wind here seems to be weaker than the permafrost."
"There are obvious shadows on the ground, which proves that the light is quite
single-but I can't find where the sun is."
"The thermometer can no longer read!"
Various voices sounded in their minds, and the mages were only stunned for
dozens of breaths, and then immediately began to study the new world. Even
Jayne had to feel a trace of admiration for this.
"What are you looking at?" Aurora asked, walking behind him.
"I'm thinking...who built this high wall, and how the world behind the wall
became so barren." Jayne muttered as he looked at the distant mountains.
Those peaks are very strange. They don't have sharp edges and corners and
obvious ridgelines~www.mtlnovel.com~ but they look like inverted basins, and
the top surface is almost cut with a knife.
In a sense, the black barrier did protect them.
He couldn't imagine how people would survive in such a barren world.
"Don't worry, we will figure it out someday." Aurora licked his lips.
The time limit of a quarter of an hour came in an instant, and a huge drag
came from behind the hull house.
At this time, the hourglass had just fallen by less than half.
Everyone knows that the tree boat is bringing them back to their original
world.
"I promise that we will come back soon and put the flag of the empire at the
top of this high wall." The Duke said word by word.
The feeling of being wrapped in mud reappeared.
When the light reappeared, they had arrived at the Shuzhou Wharf, and
everything just now seemed like a dream.
But everyone knew in their hearts that it was definitely not an illusion or an
imaginary. They were the first people to pass through the black barrier, and
they were the witnesses of mankind's first step towards the new world.
"You come with me." Uncharacteristically, Aurora didn't make any summary, but
grabbed Jayne and walked towards the canoe.
"Your Mightiness?"
The latter was a bit confused for a while, but the other party was after all
the highest leader of the trip and the spokesperson of your majesty. Even if
he had doubts, he dared not express his opposition.
Soon, the two came to a spacious house on the central tree tower.
Judging from the furnishings in the room, this is exactly where the other
party lives.
Only a click was heard, and the door was locked.
"That... Your Lord Aurora..." Jayne's heart suddenly jumped.
"Didn't I say to give you a reward?" The Duke pushed him down on the soft bed
of vine trees, "Close your eyes and accept my reward."
