Chapter 1006: A Bright Star Forged with Human Power (Part I)
Calvin hugged his wife before putting on his protective suit, and because he was worried, she came here this time.
"Do you really want you to go? can't anyone else?" he heard his wife's whisper in his ear, a mixture of worry and dissatisfaction.
Hearing this, Calvin smiled and replied softly: "Don't worry, nothing will happen! Now the world of Assatom has not yet developed to the point of going to the astral plane, and in that vast void, there are no people or things. Because I am one of the few transcendent mages in the empire other than my teacher, I am the only mage who has mastered the [Astral Teleportation], if I don't go, I can only go to the teacher, but he must sit here, only in this way, can he adjust in time. ”
There was another sentence he didn't say, and that was 'the Empire could do without him, but it could never be without a legendary mage'.
He feared that as long as he said that, Alyssa would not allow him to continue the mission.
The loss of a creative talent may cost the empire a lot, but without a legendary mage, there is a good chance that their empire will be left behind in the future era, which he cannot allow in any way.
However, as a transcendent mage, he has absolute confidence to complete this mission, so it doesn't matter if he says that sentence or not.
There were many mages who were curious about the starry sky, many of them had already been to that place, and his teacher had been there several times, so Calvin didn't worry about his safety at all.
At this time, Calvin looked up and saw two bright moons hanging in the sky, and the boundless sea of stars dotted on the sky.
"Alright, I should go......" Calvin let go of his hands, and Alyssa let go of his embrace.
She was reluctant to continue hugging, and in many of the legends she had heard and seen, there was always a tragic hero who was going away, and before the hero left, his lover or relatives would hug him tightly and say something that should not be said...... Maybe it's just because it's more appropriate, but maybe it's really because of those words, that hug, that tragedy in the end.
Elisa's eyes were full of reluctance, but she didn't say anything, and stood quietly to the sidelines, watching the others put on protective suits for her husband.
The protective suit was slightly bloated, and in the end, he had to wear a full-coverage helmet engraved with the [Vitamin Qi Bubble] magic circle, and through that layer of glass, that handsome and sunny face was always a little unreal.
Letting go of the hands that had been clenched at some point, Alyssa waved at her husband, receiving the same response from him.
The smiling face slowly disappeared in front of her eyes with the rotation of her body, and somehow, she always felt as if after this side, she would never see her husband again, her mouth opened slightly, and she wanted to blurt out some words, but when the words came to her mouth, she swallowed them again.
She didn't want her humorous and good husband to die, and although she knew that the mission was safe and there could be no problems, as Calvin's wife, there was always a dark cloud in her heart that could not be dissipated.
Calvin gestured to Gregory, who was standing on the sidelines, and looked at his best friend nodding to him, then turned and walked towards the field.
He grabbed his staff and waited for his men to tie the belt bag full of spellcasting materials around his waist, making sure he could reach it at hand.
When everything was ready, he looked at his teacher, the old man with his meticulous back and a wooden staff in his hand.
The taciturn legendary mage did not speak, but raised his staff and gently pointed at Calvin, and Calvin curled the corners of his mouth slightly, bent down with difficulty, and bowed slightly to his teacher as a sign of respect.
The blessing between the mages has been completed, so the next step is to wait for yourself to adjust and wait quietly for the time to come.
In the early summer night, when the evening breeze was slowing, Calvin, who was wearing a bloated protective suit, took a few deep breaths, at this time, the protective suit was completely isolated from the outside world, and the runes on both sides of the glass-covered helmet flashed slightly, filtering and absorbing the air from the outside world, providing life-sustaining oxygen for the user.
The satellite, which was bigger than a room, had been placed into the half-plane owned by the Empire, and he already had the key to open the half-plane, and after teleporting to the astral plane, it was enough to directly open the half-plane and take out the satellite.
“...... Lord Calvin, please go!"
As soon as the ten-second countdown was over, the announcer yelled, and Calvin raised his staff, allowing the glow of magic to bloom at the head of the staff, quickly enveloping his entire body.
- [Astral Teleportation]!
A series of numbers flashed through Calvin's mind, and it was the final answer after thousands of calculations and checks, and this time his destination was over the Inland Sea!
The light overlapped in the space, as if there were layers of film enveloping Calvin's body, and these rays of light reflected the starlight in the sky, and at this time, Calvin seemed to be summoned by the starry sky and turned into a streamer of light and went straight to the sky.
But in Calvin's vision, he just blinked his eyes subconsciously, and his body had already appeared in a void.
"Phew!"
At this time, he didn't need to look up, there was already a dazzling galaxy in front of him.
The stars that symbolize the existence of the 'world' are still far away from him, but after stepping out of the continent of Slo Mendes, he realizes how bright and dazzling this starry sky really is.
It's like a quiet river, and as far as the eye can see, all kinds of visible light come into view, and compared to the surrounding darkness, it is not too much.
Decadent people can only see the infinite darkness of this starry sky, but Calvin can see the countless stars.
For him, there are so many worlds beyond this world, and this is a very shocking thing in his heart.
In the past, he was not too interested in what the head maid said, 'going to the astral plane', after all, they hadn't even explored everything in their own world, so how could they go to the astral plane?
But now he finally discovered his shallowness, and after witnessing this starry sky, he believes that human beings must go to the astral plane, that is their future!
No matter how far away the galaxy is, how much time and energy it takes to reach the other side of the starry sky, you must do it.
Every mage has an endless desire to learn and explore, and Calvin is one of the most typical mages, so he is also full of curiosity about this starry sky.
- That's the real world!
However, now is not the time to do this, he is not here to witness the sea of stars, nor to explore the unknown.
He came here to let human wisdom bloom in this void, to let human wisdom illuminate this endless darkness.
They may not be able to conquer this sea of stars and this darkness yet, but they are now taking the first step.
They must move forward, the times must evolve!
There had never been a moment when Calvin thought that society was so urgent, but now he realized that they had to do it.
Beyond this world, there are even bigger worlds waiting for them to explore, and those things may have been waiting for a long, long time......
Glancing at the two clouds of light hanging overhead, Calvin waved open the door of the half-plane and took Sputnik out of it.
After some adjustments, Calvin took a deep breath and pressed the 'Start' button.
In an instant, invisible waves of mana radiated outward.
Calvin stood silently in the void, waiting for the world's answer......
