Chapter 457: Seven Illusion Realms

In the World Continent of the Dragon Soul Continent, a common understanding of everyone is that their World Continent is circular.

However, this circle and the so-called "planet" concept of Rhodes and others are completely different things. In the legend of the Dragon Soul Continent, this continent is enclosed in a round, eggshell-like existence, whether it is the sky you look up at or the earth under your feet, it is the scenery "inside the shell". Beyond this "eggshell" is chaos, disorder, and full of danger and destruction. And in the conclusions that the mages have come to in their historical research on the emergence of this world, in addition to the surface plane where they are currently located, there are several different planes. In addition to the Underworld Realm and the Bottomless Abyss, there are also the four elemental planes, as well as the so-called Seven Illusion Realms. According to the research of the mages and the ancient legends that have been passed down from generation to generation, the Seven Illusion Realms are an alternate dimensional plane that exists within the Dragon Soul Continent. No one can say the specific origin, but there are currently two versions of the Seven Illusion Realms, one is that they belong to the branches under the four elements. The other believes that the Seven Illusion Realm is likely to be the place where the Creation Dragon Soul was originally born. Although there are many theories, no one has ever actually entered the Seven Illusion Realms. The only thing that can prove its existence is the mage's summoning technique. Because the summoning technique summons all the beings that do not belong to this world, and according to the summoned objects, the world world where they are located is the Seven Illusion Realm. It's just that the details of the summoned beings cannot be explained, and almost all summoned beings, regardless of their rank, seem to be bound by some kind of treaty, and cannot answer the question about the Seven Illusion Realms in detail. It's not without mages trying to force answers from summons, but as soon as the instructions for these summons reach the core, they are immediately broken from the contract and forcibly sent back to their original plane. So far, the only thing everyone has gained from the Seven Illusions Realm is their names.

Valley of shadows, sea of silver, shade of trees. The Plains of Fire, the Land of Steel, the Hall of Stars, the Land of Oblivion.

If the entire world realm is regarded as an eggshell-shaped building, then the four elemental planes are the foundation. The Seven Illusions are the pillars used to support the roof. And the roof and walls are the dragon souls of the five dragons of creation. They formed a solid barrier to protect the Dragon Soul Continent from the wind and rain of the outside world.

Although Marlene is an elemental mage, she is still very clear about the Seven Illusion Realm, after all, learning this knowledge is also a compulsory course for mages. And within the Academy. There are a few archmages who have created similar spells, summoning creatures from different planes to serve themselves. But...............

"Rod, this ............ in your hand Which plane is it connected to the Seven Illusions? ”

Looking at the stone in Rod's hand, Marlene became a little uneasy, she had also dealt with creatures from the Seven Illusion Realm. Generally speaking, the existence of the Shade Realm and the Star Spirit Hall is relatively mild and reasonable. The creatures of the Plains of Fire and the Valley of the Shadows are dangerous, aggressive, irritable, and harmful. If she could, Marlene really didn't want to see the originally peaceful fortress being tossed and jumping, and she couldn't be at peace.

"I don't know very much, but I'll know if I try it."

Hear Marlene's inquiry. Rhodes paused, he played with the spar in his hand, and then glanced at Christie beside him——— unlike the aborigines in the game, players who have gone through many adventures have doubted whether the Seven Illusions Realm belongs to the territory of the Six Pillars Demon God, especially many players who like to dig into the game content have found a lot of similarities between the Seven Illusions and the Six Pillars Demon God. According to the clues they have. These players once made a research report on the forum that was hundreds of thousands of words, through a series of data, attributes, and equipment relics, to show that the Seven Illusions Realm is the place where the Six Pillars Demon God and their followers live and rule. However, because the report is so complex, Rhodes is not the kind of madman who studies the background of the game. So he didn't click in to see it at the time, but vaguely heard the players on his team talk about it.

But. If the Seven Illusion Realm really has something to do with the Six Pillars Demon God...............

Christie was not unusual, she looked at the crystal in Rod's hand with the same curious, pure and excited gaze as Anne, and did not seem to be shaken by the conversation between Rod and Marlene. However, Rod didn't expect any answer from Christie's body, he quickly withdrew his gaze from the girl's body, and then looked at the crystal in his hand, and soon, Rod closed his eyes and turned on the construction system.

[Detect the bit-to-surface key, do you build a plane channel?] 】

Build.

Rod nodded slightly in the face of the system prompt, and then he reopened his eyes.

The crystal ball that was originally suspended in Rod's hand slowly rose, and soon floated to the dome part of the hall, and at this moment everyone stopped whispering, but raised their heads and looked intently at the crystal in front of them.

Soon, a stream of golden light flashed from the complex, exquisite fresco at the edge of the dome, and then the apex of the two sections of the dome immediately shone with bright, dazzling magical light, they condensed into two magic lines, connected with the crystal suspended in the center, and then, driven by the magic lines, the crystal began to slowly move closer to the mural.

Marlene frowned slightly.

It wasn't the first time she had observed the mural, but it wasn't until now that Marlene realized that it wasn't simple———— the smooth and neat stone walls were carved with huge trees that almost stretched the canopy to the top of the firmament. And above this canopy, there are seven very fine circles. At first glance, the circles seemed to be nothing more than numerical fruits of uncarved knots, but it was only now that Marlene realized that the seven circles seemed to be used to hold the crystal in Rod's hand, and everything seemed to have been prepared in advance.

Marlene opened her mouth, but when she saw everyone around her, she closed her mouth again. She had long suspected that the fortress was not so simple, and Rhodes did not tell her the truth, but Marlene was not ignorant. She's not as brainless as the mercenaries who are drunk and drunk, but all this ............... It's all the same as prophesied.

Thinking of this, Marlene lowered her eyes and clasped her hands in front of her chest.

Drawn by the magical light, the crystal was quickly placed in a circular gap at the top of the mural, and then shone with the glow of magic, and in the blink of an eye, the crystal fused perfectly with the mural. It looks as if it belonged there.

“——————”

At the same time, a blue light came from above, following the lines of the mural into the earth, and then, on the otherwise plain hall floor. Gradually, a circular circle emerged. And with the appearance of the magic circle, a cold aura rushed towards everyone.

The oncoming cold wind was so cold that even Rod couldn't help but shiver. However, he quickly moved his body and got in front of Christie. Anne hurriedly crouched down and opened her hand to take the girl into her arms. Marlene and Lijie hurriedly turned around, closing their eyes and turning their backs to the icy wind. Only Qilian was still standing proudly in place, I don't know if it was because of her self-esteem as a fire elemental lord or if she didn't need to worry about this level of coldness in the first place.

Soon, a frost began to form on the ground. However, it quickly disappeared with the cold, and when everyone opened their eyes again, they found that there was one more person in front of them.

"Hello, my master."

The sound was crisp, like a stream flowing deep in the mountains, and like an ice floe floating on the surface of the sea, cold and cold, without the slightest emotion, giving people the feeling of facing a tombstone covered with hoarfrost. There was no inhibition or frustration. But in fact, it's not much worse.

It was a girl composed entirely of ice and snow, and at first glance it looked like a beautifully crafted ice sculpture. On the cheeks as white as snow, you can clearly see the girl's pale blue eyes, and the brilliance shining inside is obviously not the existence that mortals should have. The small and cute face gives people a sense of childishness. But that cold, indifferent expression brings a contradictory, mature charm.

The upper body of the girl is no different from that of an ordinary human, but from the waist down is completely different——— and at first glance it looks like the frills of the tuxedo skirt worn by a noble girl at a ball. But if you look closely, you will find that these things that are combined into skirts one by one are perfectly integrated with the girl's body, replacing the legs that humans are supposed to play a role in action——— or in fact, they are similar. It's not just the girl's legs. If you look closely, you will find that even her long, silky-looking hair is the product of dozens of slender "something", and even when the girl is not moving, her hair will twist and curl gently from time to time, and you can even see the washing dishes inside.

"Master, you're really always summoning some incredible things."

Looking at the girl in front of him, Qilian chuckled, and in the face of her words, Rod shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and then he looked at the girl in front of him.

"You are ..............."

"You may call me Agavi, my master."

As she spoke, the girl bent down slightly and bowed back to Rhodes, but although her tone was very respectful, her facial expression still did not change in the slightest, as cold as an ice sculpture. And there is no slightest inhibition in the tone, as if reading the lines.

Taking in the scene in front of them, the people on the side couldn't help whispering.

"Wow, another regiment leader, it's so cold, it's cold, Anne can't stand it."

Anne was the first to speak, and she stole a glance at Agap, then clasped her arms around her body as if she were in the North Pole.

"This sister doesn't have any expression at all, but she really matches the head of the regiment."

“……… I think......... She's beautiful................"

Christie seemed to have a different meaning to Anne's words, she crossed her hands, looked curiously at Agame, who was talking to Rod not far away, and said with a slight smile.

"That......... She doesn't seem to be human, huh? ”

However, Lijie's concerns seem to be more essential.

"If I'm not mistaken, she's supposed to be a sea elf."

In the case of magical creatures, apart from Rhodes, Marlene had the most to say here, and she withdrew her gaze from the girl's automatically curled, tentacle-like hair, and replied in a low voice. And hearing her speak, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

"Sea elves, Sister Marlene, you mean......... Is she a type of elf? ”

Anne's eyes widened in surprise at Marlene's answer, and she turned her head again to take a closer look at Agapy.

"But............... The gap between the elves she and Anne had seen was probably too big. ”

"I'm not very clear about it........."

Speaking of this, Marlene rarely hesitated, after all, gossiping behind other people's backs was not her forte and preference, but she still opened her mouth and continued.

"But I once read the introduction in the academy's collection, it is rumored that in ancient times, there were some elves who left the continent and went to live in other planes, we don't know what they left for, but we know that after a long time, these elves have changed in order to adapt to the situation of their own plane, I think ..............."

Saying this, Marlene hesitated for a moment, and secretly turned her head to look at the sea elf again. At this moment, she could clearly see the eight tentacles under the girl's body that were used to support her body like ribbons like a noble girl's dress, as well as the ends of her long hair that were twisting and turning.

“……… Maybe Miss Agameve is one of the sea elves. ”

"Wow........."

Hearing this, Anne couldn't help but exclaim, as if she knew what Marlene was saying, but the next moment, Anne immediately exposed her hole cards.

"Sounds amazing."

“…………………”

In the face of Anne's answer, Marlene rolled her eyes helplessly, turned away, and looked at the beautiful frescoes carved on the walls of the fortress hall in front of her. At this moment, the mural has regained its original appearance, without its colorful brilliance, and even the crystal has completely merged with the mural at this moment, as if it was there in the first place. But at this moment, the way Marlene looked at the mural was completely different.

“Nessingemlce………”

Looking at the mural in front of her, Marlene whispered to herself.
