Looking Forward to Another World
Chapter 1075 A glimmer of hope to hold on to
"I want to know how to cross Nanirga."
When Li Ge also used an extremely casual attitude and calmly stated his purpose as if chatting, the atmosphere of the whole place changed.
Not to mention that Malfoy's expression changed, but Mero, Nayisa and others also looked at Li Ge with surprise in their eyes.
"Your Excellency...what did you say?"
"Wait a minute! Your Excellency, you..."
The first person who failed to sit down was indeed not Malfoy, but Mero and Nayisa who were closest to Li Ge.
The two girls, who didn't know the purpose of Li Ge's trip, immediately lost their cool when they heard Li Ge's words.
But when they wanted to interrupt, Belluti had already grabbed one of them with one hand, stopped them, and shook her head at them.
Mero and Nayisa wanted to say something, but it was obvious that Li Ge had a calm look on his face, so he finally held back.
As for Lilicia, Jelina, Xiluen and others, they looked at each other as if they were at a loss.
In this situation, Malfoy put down the fire wine in his hand.
"I won't ask why you want to know such a thing." Malfoy looked at Li Ge, squinted his eyes, and said, "But I think you will be disappointed."
"Nanerga is the most massive engineering achievement in the history of the dwarves."
"Its function is to resist the invasion of the abyss."
"So, there's no way to get past it."
Malfoy said this categorically, but it failed to move Li Ge.
"According to historical records, Nanirga's defense line against the abyss was originally built by the dwarf craftsmen entrusted by the destroyed empire, right?" Li Ge actually said this: "It is said that in order to build this line of defense, the empire drained its own treasury and consumed most of the materials supported by various races. Only then did this line of defense come into being successfully."
"That's right." Malfoy nodded and said: "The resources, manpower, financial and material resources consumed on Nanilga at that time reached an incredible level. Even our dwarves spent a huge amount on this. The price has exhausted several master craftsmen to death, but this sacrifice is undoubtedly worth it."
Being able to withstand the invasion of the abyss for thousands of years, Nanilga was indeed born very timely and great.
But……
"Since it was the empire that originally commissioned the dwarves to build Nanerga, wouldn't that empire not want to leave any backdoors and directly isolate its own country from the source with a giant wall, handing over its own country to the abyss?" Li Ge said calmly: "I don't think they will do this."
"So, you think Nanilga has a backdoor?" Malfoy sneered: "Based on this baseless speculation?"
"This is indeed a guess, but it is not without foundation." Li Ge tapped his fingers on the table in front of him and said calmly: "Everyone in the entire Source knows that the empire has been waiting for it before it fell. The wielder of the Holy Sword Mosro returns again, leading them to repel the abyss and regain the fallen country."
"Since they have such a wish, it is impossible to completely cut off their escape route."
"If one day, the holder of the Holy Sword Mosro really returns, will they still have to find a way to break through the wall of the source that they commissioned the dwarves to build at a huge cost, and built it with huge sacrifices? The remains of the giant wall, and then fight back again?"
"I don't think they're such a bunch of fools."
This is really just a guess.
But as Li Ge said, this speculation is not completely unfounded.
As long as you think about it carefully, you can understand that if the destroyed "empire" really wants to regain its territory, repel the abyss, and restore its former glory again, then it is impossible for Nanerga to become an obstacle to himself and others in the future. .
In view of this, there must be some way for them to cross Nanilga and return to the fallen land.
It was precisely because of this consideration that Li Ge came to Malfoy non-stop.
If he hadn't been sure that Nanil Galliu had some backdoor, Li Ge might have activated [Wish on a Star] to achieve his goal, even at the expense of precious experience points.
"...Perhaps that empire came up with the idea of building the giant wall of Nanirga just because it was desperate?"
Malfoy frowned, still arguing.
"Holy Sword Mosro has disappeared with its owner for so many years, and the empire has been gradually destroyed in the process of resisting the abyss. Perhaps they know that their savior will not come back, and even if he comes back, they will no longer be able to see it. Is that why you commissioned us to build Nanirga?”
In this case, the other party will not think about leaving any backdoors.
Li Ge did not completely deny this.
"It is possible, but I am more inclined to believe that they are still waiting, waiting for the holder of the holy sword Mosluo to come again when they are most desperate."
Speaking of this, Li Ge's tone also changed somewhat.
After all, he knew very well where the Holy Sword Mosluo was.
At the same time, he also knew what the savior "that empire" had been waiting for was like before he met him.
Reinnail was destroyed and became history along with the ancient magical civilization.
Although the Holy Sword Mosro has been passed down, and Liz, a descendant of the Reinnail family, has miraculously survived to the modern era 11,000 years later, it may be possible for the Reinnail family to carry out dimensional transformations. The Dimensional Rubik's Cube that traveled back to the source somehow came to his body and took up residence in his mind.
Without the Dimensional Cube, even if the descendants of the Reinnail clan could awaken with the Holy Sword Mosro, there would be no way to return to the source and save them from the fire and water.
Their expectations are destined to become a delusion, a future that they cannot wait for no matter what.
"Human beings will always cling to a glimmer of hope in desperate situations, even if that glimmer of hope is far away." Li Ge met Malfoy's gaze and said: "Just like the life in the source, for eleven thousand years , haven’t you always been hopeful and waiting for the next savior to come?”
Malfoy suddenly fell silent.
Melo, Nayisa and others also fell into silence, looking at Li Ge sitting in front of them and saying nothing for a long time.
What Li Ge wanted to express was already obvious. Instead of believing that the people of "that empire" would lead to destruction with endless despair, he would rather believe that they still had hope until the end, waiting for the empire that was destined to never come. The coming of people.
"Tell me." Li Ge said extremely calmly: "What is the way to cross Nanilga?"
Malfoy still didn't answer, just stared at Li Ge, as if he wanted to see through his inner thoughts.
Li Ge did not avoid Malfoy's gaze, he just sat there with a calm expression.
Just when Rigg thought Malfoy would want to ask what he wanted to do and why he wanted to cross Nanilga and enter the dangerous black land, the old dwarf actually stood up directly.
"follow me."
Malfoy turned around and walked outside.
Li Ge didn't waste any time, stood up directly and followed Malfoy.
Seeing this, Mero, Nayisa and others looked like they were hesitant to speak, but finally decided to remain silent and follow up to take a look before talking.
So, not long after a group of people arrived here, they immediately left here and headed in another direction of the underground city.
…………
This is the deepest part of the underground city where the dwarf garrison is located.
The so-called deepest point does not refer to the position, but the height.
The dwarven underground city is located above the magma field, right in the center.
But under the leadership of Malfoy, Li Ge and others arrived at the very center of this underground city and entered the core of the entire underground magma zone.
This seems to be a forbidden area. Not only is it guarded by numerous barriers, but there are also a variety of magic that can drive others away, keeping people away from this area unconsciously.
"Don't stay too far away from me. It's best to stay within ten meters of me."
Malfoy, who came here, just gave a simple warning, and immediately took out a talisman from his arms and hung it on his body.
The amulet emitted a faint light, slightly illuminating the area around Malfoy.
Li Ge and others followed Malfoy into this heavily protected area.
Along the way, no one triggered any magic mechanism, and even the boundary seemed to turn a blind eye to them, allowing them to pass.
"This amulet has been kept in the hands of our dwarves for thousands of years."
Malfoy suddenly said this as he walked forward.
"When I got it, the former dwarf commander who was stationed here told me that this is something that every dwarf commander who will be stationed here will inherit."
"No one knows of its existence. Only the successive dwarf commanders and dwarf kings know of its existence."
"And we keep it for only one purpose, and that is to wait."
What to wait for?
Malfoy didn't say it, but everyone could guess it.
Just like what Li Ge said, it is a glimmer of hope tightly held in a desperate situation.
"It's a pity that we didn't wait for the next holder of the Holy Sword Mosro, and we didn't wait for the savior that the empire was looking forward to. Instead, we waited for you."
Malfoy said in a deep voice, with some emotion in his tone.
"I didn't expect that the person who would eventually use it would be me."
If Li Ge hadn't come here...
If Holy Sword Marfa doesn't have a holder...
Then, Malfoy will probably hand this amulet to the next dwarf commander stationed here at the end of his term, like all previous dwarf commanders, right?
"What would happen if I entered here without this talisman?"
Li Ge was silent for a while and then asked this question.
"There are two results." Malfoy said expressionlessly: "Or, the heavy protection set up here will repel the illegal intruder."
"Either, the moment the opponent breaks through all the defenses, this underground city will sink under the magma."
These two short sentences clearly reveal the awareness and solemnity that cannot be concealed.
"In addition, even if someone else gets this talisman, it will be useless." Malfoy added an explanation, saying: "This talisman can only be used by dwarves, and the other party must be the highest commander of the dwarf garrison area. Officer, otherwise the amulet will not be effective."
"For this reason, every dwarf commander who comes to station here will begin to continuously bathe in a special magical ritual light one year before his term comes."
"After bathing for a year, this person will be recognized as the supreme commander of the dwarf garrison in a ceremonial sense. Only then will the talisman have an effect on him."
This layer of protection is not lax, and the possibility of the amulet being stolen and the place being compromised is infinitely reduced to zero.
And this also made everyone, including Li Ge, realize that at this moment, Malfoy was leading them to the location of the biggest secret guarded here.
"If it weren't for the fact that you are the holder of the Holy Sword Marfa, then no matter what you say today, I would never be able to bring you in here."
Malfoy didn't stop walking, nor did his voice stop.
"As I said before, I won't ask you what you want to do, but since it's your request as the holder of the Holy Sword, I will grant it to you."
"But don't blame me for not explaining it in advance."
"If anything happens to you, I will never be responsible."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone had arrived at their destination under the leadership of Malfoy.
That's an altar.
The altar is not on the ground, but sunk deep into the ground, located in a circular hole.
When everyone came to the edge of the cave, they immediately saw the simple-looking, unpretentious altar about twenty meters below.
"Go down."
Malfoy jumped down first and asked everyone to follow him.
For everyone present, the height of twenty meters is simply childish. It is no problem to jump directly. Even Jie Linai and Xiluen will not have any accidents due to this level of height.
Of course, Belluti, the powerless saint, is an exception.
If she jumped down, she would most likely be thrown to death.
Therefore, only Belluti was taken down by Lilicia, and the others followed Malfoy and jumped directly to the altar.
"Is this... a magic circle?"
Li Ge was the first to see clearly what was on the altar and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Yes, there is a complicated and profound magic circle carved on the altar.
There is a small stone platform in the center of the magic circle, and there is a groove on the stone platform.
Malfoy stepped forward directly and inserted the amulet in his hand into the groove.
"Buzz..."
The next moment, the magic array on the ground trembled slightly and began to emit a soft light.
"This is the only teleportation magic circle in the world that can cross the giant wall of Nanirga."
Malfoy came out, pointed at the magic circle, and said so.
"Go in, pour magic power into the magic circle, and you will be transported into the black land."
