  Chapter 38 The Road to Heaven

   According to the legend, there is a staircase leading to the sky on the Baiyun Peak not far away. As long as you can walk on that road, you can reach the mysterious sky city...

   Doesn’t it sound very artistic?

   And in fact...

   "To be honest, I'm really skeptical now, this thing is made up to cheat money."

  Looking at the bustling town at the foot of the mountain, Duanmuhuai was completely speechless and complained.

   No wonder he said that, just look at the brands.

  "Sky City Staircase Search Tour Group", "Mysterious Sky City Relics Exhibition", "One Hundred and Eight Stories You Don't Know About Sky City"...

  If it wasn't for the quest of "Castle in the Sky" that was triggered when he inquired about the news from the tavern, Duanmuhuai really thought it was just a story used to cheat money.

  It’s like traveling to Flame Mountain and then encountering something like “Shuilian Cave Classic Tour Route”.

  The problem is that the Water Curtain Cave is not in the Flame Mountain either.

   "... Forget it, let's go and have a look."

  Based on the idea that idleness is also idleness, Duanmuhuai took Augis into the museum of "Sky City Relics Exhibition" in the town, wanting to see what is in this sky city.

However………

   "This is a pair of swords that suddenly fell from the sky one day! It's going unabated, and even pierced through the head of an unlucky guy!"

  This Nima is a high-altitude parabola! Aren't you going to find the murderer?

   "It is said that this is a cup used by the residents of the Sky City. The Sky City will regularly sprinkle these blessings on the world. It is our duty to collect them!"

   This is just an ordinary cup, and besides, is it true that you throw garbage from the sky? If it is true, then the quality of the residents of this sky city is not very good.

   After looking around patiently, Duanmuhuai said, this is just a garbage fair.

   They still have a bit of conscience if they don't get a piece of **** fossil.

   "Forget it, let's go straight up the mountain."

  Although Duanmuhuai didn't see any sky city in the satellite scan, but since the system triggered the task, it means there must be a sky city here.

Of course, there is also a one-day tour of the "Sky City Stairs" in the town, but they are on horseback, and Duanmuhuai's figure obviously can't ride, so he directly took Augis along the mountain road and walked up the mountain step by step—— He didn't even look for a guide. After all, those guys who run the train with their mouths and only make up stories and nonsense probably wouldn't be able to provide him with any useful clues.

  Fortunately, there is only one way up the mountain, and Duanmu Huai is not afraid of going the wrong way.

  Of course, he wasn't the only one who went up the mountain. Along the way, Duanmu Huai also saw many knights dressed in armor and carrying long swords. Some of them rode horses, some walked. Obviously, they all came here to look for the legendary "sky city".

   "So, you all came here to find Sky City? Does this have anything to do with your trials?"

  Walking along, Duanmuhuai chatted with a knight riding a horse next to him—idle is idle, just like chatting when traveling to Mount Tai and Huangshan.

   "Of course, Outlander."

   And this knight is also a talkative person. Although Duanmu Huai looks scary wearing a helmet, but there are so many people here, he is not afraid of the other party's sudden attack, so he chatted.

   "It is rumored that the Sky City is a sacred city that only knights with integrity can enter. As long as we can enter the city and receive blessings, then we can show our strength and glory!"

   "So, has anyone ever succeeded?"

  Duanmu Huai asked curiously, there is some basis for this kind of rumor, it can't be just opening your mouth.

   "It is rumored that the Green Knight, the patron saint of Bretonnia, once went to the Sky City under the guidance of the Goddess of the Lake. His armor and weapons all came from that city!"

"Oh I got it………"

  Hearing this, Duanmu Huai finally understood why these knights were so excited, and after a long time, they all wanted to be the second green knight.

  But what’s wrong with being a green knight? You’re green from start to finish, and you don’t know how many times you’ve been green before it becomes like this... Duanmu Huai would be beaten to death.

   Not long after, everyone came near the top of the mountain. They scattered and searched for clues everywhere—obviously, they were not stupid, after all, the sky here was cloudless, and there was not even a ghost in the sky. But the people in the magical world have strong receptivity. Obviously, the city in the sky is likely to be in another world, so what they are looking for now is a way to go to that world.

   I have to say that these people are not stupid.

   Unfortunately, they are unlikely to find it.

  Duanmuhuai was not together with these people, he glanced left and right, and then, a light flashed in his eyes.

  Start, the soul resonates!

The next moment, the world in front of Duanmuhuai's eyes immediately changed, and the surroundings became illusory and dazed. Soon after, Duanmuhuai raised his head and looked at the top of the mountain——on the sharp top where only one person can stand, a long and slender The stairs go straight into the sky and lead to the pure BC city that is located on the top of the mountains and floating in the sky.

   Found you!

  Seeing this scene, the corners of Duanmuhuai's mouth turned up slightly, and then he let Augis sit on his shoulders, and then Duanmuhuai came to the front, stretched out his hand to grab the stone, and began to climb the rock in front of him.

   Duanmuhuai's actions naturally attracted the attention of other people, but they didn't think much about it. After all, there is only a platform the size of a person on the top of the mountain. Everyone has checked it long ago, and there is nothing on it. I thought that this burly black guy just wanted to go up to see the scenery, and some people even worried that he would trample on the platform on the top of the mountain—that place couldn't stand the toss of this black guy!

  However, just as everyone started looking for clues again, suddenly, a voice sounded.

   "Huh? Where's the black knight?!"

Hearing the scream, everyone was stunned, and hurriedly raised their heads to look upwards, only to see that the platform on the top of the mountain not far away was empty, without a single person, and the burly and huge black knight just disappeared. up!

  Where did he go? Could it be that he fell off the mountain?

   Of course Duanmuhuai did not fall, in fact, he is walking among the clouds now.

   "Phew... this place is really not friendly to people with fear of heights."

  Walking on the stairs, looking around, Duanmuhuai also secretly sighed inwardly. This is a staircase as wide as three people. The whole part looks like glass and transparent. Walking on it, Duanmuhuai can't help but think of the high-altitude glass corridors in many scenic spots. What's worse is that there isn't even a handrail next to this ladder. If you step on the wrong foot, you will just slip and fall directly... and then fall directly.

   This place is really not accessible to ordinary people.

  Thanks to the knights not being found, otherwise a few of them might fall to their deaths.

  Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai raised his head again and looked at the sky city in front of him.

   This is not so much a city as it is a mountain floating in the sky. The front half of the hill was hollowed out to create a massive fortress with semicircular walls and platforms. And in the innermost part, there is a white pure white high-rise building built against the mountain, and the whole sky city is full of a strange atmosphere and charm from a mysterious civilization.

  It's not the architectural style of the old saints, where did this thing come from?

  While carefully looking at the sky city in front of him, Duanmu Huai was also puzzled. In fact, a long time ago, many soulwalker players discovered that there were many scenes in soul fragments, and they could not find corresponding records and records in reality. It's as if the world they found in the soul fragments never existed in this world at all.

Therefore, some players also put forward a hypothesis, that is, this planet may have been destroyed more than once. Before the ancient saints arrived on this planet, maybe this planet once had another powerful civilization environment, and then died for some reason. Then the Old Ones came and created species like elves, dwarves and humans...

   I have to say that this assumption is still very marketable.

   As for what it is...you will know by yourself!

   At the same time, Duanmu Huai also stepped onto the last step and came to the gate of Sky City.
