Chapter 221 006: Landing
There is a thick layer of clouds here. The white clouds are spread out in the sky like balls of rolled cotton, stretching endlessly like a milky white ocean.
This is where the sky world and the land world meet, and these white clouds are the dividing line between the two worlds. Above the white clouds belongs to the realm of the sky, and below the white clouds is the realm of the land.
Luo Xi controlled his body and slowly descended into the white clouds. As soon as he entered here, his body began to shake noticeably, as if he could no longer control his body.
The spatial rules of the sky world are different from those of the land world. After entering here, due to the changes in the rules, Luo Xi's flight also needs to make corresponding adjustments, so these bumps are normal.
Soon, Luo Xi adjusted his flying ability, and it was actually easier to control after returning to the land rules he was familiar with.
“Hoohoo!”
He also breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was not as relaxed as he seemed, he had no idea what he would encounter under the unfamiliar rules of space. When would the space turbulence appear? Because of this, he was really tense and alert there. Even just to keep his body steady, he almost tried his best.
"If you are not familiar with the world in the sky, you really can't fly around randomly."
With all sorts of thoughts in his mind, Luo Xi slowly flew below the clouds.
The thickness of this cloud layer was not too thick, only about a few hundred meters. After a while, Luo Xi passed through the cloud layer, and the familiar land world reappeared in front of Luo Xi.
“Ahhh!”
Two hissing sounds were heard, and two vultures flew over from a distance. These nasty scavengers seemed inexplicably familiar at this moment.
When they descended to a range of two thousand meters from the ground, the rules of the sky world completely disappeared. Luo Xi also completely mastered his body shape and went down with ease. After a few minutes, he slowly landed on the ground.
"Finally it's down!"
The feeling of ground under his feet made Luo Xi feel very at home. He had been floating in the air for several months, and this was the first time he returned to the ground in these months.
Although it is also possible to land on the floating island, the feeling of stepping on the floating island and the ground are two completely different feelings. Luo Xi couldn't tell what the difference was, probably just that one feels solid and the other feels unsolid.
After calming himself down, Luo Xi looked around and saw that the place was in ruins.
In the ruins, the broken walls and ruins are like the sharp blade of time, cutting through the past years. These stones appear increasingly old under the erosion of time, and their edges and corners have long been blurred by weathering and erosion, as if telling of endless vicissitudes.
The surrounding area is overgrown with weeds and wild flowers. These wild flowers grow tenaciously in the cracks of the ruins, embellishing this desolate land with bright colors and bringing a touch of vitality to the ruins. When the breeze blows, the flowers sway in the wind, as if telling the story of this land to passers-by.
In the center of the ruins, an old church stood. Its spire had collapsed, leaving only broken walls. The walls of the church were covered with mosses and vines, which climbed and entangled on the walls, as if trying to find the secrets of the church. The windows of the church had long been broken, leaving only empty window frames, as if showing the world its former glory.
Occasionally, you can hear the sound of birds singing in the distance and the rustling of the wind blowing through the ruins. These sounds interweave to form an ancient symphony, which makes people immersed in the desolation and mystery of the ruins.
"Siggrama."
Luo Xi raised his hand and placed it on a broken stone wall, gently stroking the mottled marks on it. At this moment, thousands of years of time seemed to be held in his hands.
"Complete an effort to experience the ruins, time point +8 days."
"Hey! Now is not the time to be confused. Shouldn't we first figure out where we are now?" At this moment, Lina's urging voice sounded, waking Luo Xi from his emotion.
She said dissatisfiedly: "What a mess this place is. I don't want to stay here forever. Do you know how to leave here? You know, right?"
Luo Xi said: "Don't worry."
As he spoke, he took out a map from his space ring.
He did a lot of work before starting this journey, and basic preparations such as maps were of course indispensable.
He bought this specifically from the market. It was said to be drawn by a large number of bounty hunters here who spent a lot of time and effort. It records the current detailed topography of the ruined ancient city and is almost the most detailed map of the ruined ancient city available on the market today.
The map contained detailed geographical coordinates as well as the magical coordinates of Luo Xi and the others. He soon found out the current area through positioning.
He said: "We should be in the former Blue Water Bay ruins area now."
Bluewater Bay is an administrative district of the former ruined ancient city, and its specific scope is roughly the size of a kingdom in the human world.
Lina then asked: "So what do we do now?"
Luo Xi was silent for a moment. This was a question that required careful consideration.
After some thought, he soon discovered that there seemed to be only three routes before him. The first was to return to the floating island above and return to the main force.
However, it was impossible for him to fly up with his current strength. He needed tools to do it. It was unlikely to find an airship in this wilderness. Moreover, even if he found one, he would not know how the war was going. If he rushed up and got involved, wouldn't he be sending himself to death? The second route was to wait where he was.
After the above war is over, Sage Cavill will definitely find out that I am gone, and he will make corresponding arrangements at that time.
But the question is, when will the war above end? Will Sage Kavir and his men be safe and sound in the war? Besides, it is not easy to find me in this vast ruin, and Sage Kavir may not waste time looking for me.
That leaves the third option, which is to travel alone.
Anyway, he had a detailed map of the ruined ancient city, so it was no problem for him to travel alone. However, should he continue to rush to his destination to participate in Misera's maze? Or should he turn around and go back to the South Coast Alliance? This was something he needed to consider.
Lina asked, "How about we go back?"
Luo Xi raised an eyebrow: "Go back?"
Lina nodded and said, "Yeah, anyway, this kind of accident is not your fault. If you don't want to attend, then don't attend. I see that this journey is not going smoothly. I don't know what will happen next. It's better to go back as soon as possible."
