2202 Ancient Palace(1/2)
As soon as the Desert Halfling Assistant appeared, he stared at them with vigilance and bad eyes.
Although he did not shout and kill immediately, there was obvious hostility from his eyes. Moreover, under the feet of the half-ling, the quicksand realm was expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye. It would not take long to flood the area where they were standing.
At this moment, Luo Jia spoke out his name.
The Desert Halfling obviously had never heard of Luoga, but Luoga and it are both earth-based creatures. With the appearance of the stone, the Desert Halfling immediately understood that Luoga came from the friendly wild stone wasteland that was like their brothers.
So, the halfling of the desert did not rush to threaten them, but hesitated for a while and said to Luojia: "Wait for a moment, I will go and verify from the patrol."
After saying that, the desert half-ling crawled into the quicksand and disappeared.
After about three minutes, the half-hearted figure circled with a subtle flowing wind and finally appeared in front of them again.
Compared to before, its expression was less alert and more close: "It turned out to be Junior Brother Luo Jia."
Junior brother Luo Jia's eyes lit up and he looked at the half-ling person opposite: "Are you also a teacher's student?"
The half-length man opened his mouth and nodded with a smile: "Yes, but that happened more than 300 years ago. I think Junior Brother Luo Jia must have never heard of me."
"By the way, the patrolman has notified the teacher when he learned that Junior Brother Luo Jia has returned. I believe that the teacher will be very happy to see you." After saying that, the halfling made way and pointed out the way for Luo Jia.
Luoga glanced at Angel next to him, hesitated for a moment, and said to the half-limb who was floating in the air: "I have a request..."
"Fly to the teacher's location?" The half-length glanced at Luo Jia in surprise. This guy didn't look like he could fly.
Luo Jia briefly explained that Yanming was not himself who could fly, but with the help of Angel's props.
"So that's it." The half-limb man made a sudden look, but it was still unclear, just not wanting to expose his ignorance.
"Junior Brother Luo Jia must know the taboos of flying, and I cannot make decisions about this. Let me tell the patrolman that I will tell the wise man to see what the teacher said."
After the halfling said that, he fell into the quicksand again.
A few minutes later, the halfling reappeared: "The wise man agreed. However, by the rules, you need to find a tooth-pulling desert protozoa that accompanied him."
When the halfling said this, he showed a hint of sympathy: "I can tell you clearly that there is no earth-based creature that can fly within a hundred miles of this nearby."
In other words, if Luoga cannot find a companion, he can only move slowly to the core area with his feet.
Luo Jia's eyes showed a look of distress, and his eyes were involuntarily looking at the half-ling... This half-ling not only looked like a magic lamp monster in a fairy tale, but also had the characteristics of a magic lamp monster. It was suspended in the air and should be able to fly, right?
The halfling seemed to understand Luo Jia's meaning and waved his hands repeatedly: "I can't do it, I'm the one you talk about... the one who holds you. At most, move nearby and can't leave too far."
The halfling's rejection made Luo Jia sigh helplessly.
Seeing that the small flowers on Luo Jia were wilted, the half-ling felt a little reluctant and suggested: "Why do you want to look for it while you are walking? After you find it, you can fly over."
Luoga turned his head and handed over the decision to Angel.
Angel pondered for a moment and said to the half-limb: "Does the person who accompanied the flying must be able to fly? If he can't fly, can he do it?"
"The regulations do not require that the companion must fly..." the halfling muttered.
Angel waved his hand gently and released the gondola and floated in the air: "My flying boat can carry a soil creature. I'll find someone who can't fly. As long as I stay on the boat, it's also a companion flight, right?"
The half-ling hesitated for a moment, feeling his mind as if he was swirling, and finally it nodded: "It should be possible."
After getting the halfling confirmed, Angel quickly turned around and gently weighed a gerbil that had just been born for a week hundreds of meters away.
"This little guy should have been born during the Voice of the World, right? Can I carry it with me?"
The halfling was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "The rules do not prohibit creatures in the elves from flying together."
Angel smiled slightly and put the struggling gerbil into Luoga's hands: "Then let's say goodbye first."
After talking, Angel took Loga and Dangros back to Gondola, and under the complex gaze of the half-ling, he controlled the flying boat and flew towards the distance.
On Gondora, Luo Jia, who was comforting the frightened gerbil, showed a contemplative expression on his face: "I didn't expect that I could do this. Alas, I can't let go of my thinking, otherwise I could think of such a simple method just now."
"Sure enough, Teacher Ku Platinum is right. I need more learning, otherwise my horizons will always be limited to the established framework."
When Luo Jia said that he wanted to study, a bright light lit up in his eyes.
This is the first time that Angel has seen such a thirsty elemental creature when he comes to the tide world.
The more you understand elemental creatures, the more you find that they actually have different personalities like all intelligent lives. There are Dan Gross who regards idols as faith, the wind and sand brigade who indulges in unruly and loves freedom, and the Luoga who regards learning as pursuit.
When Angel heard about elemental creatures, even if the wizard called him "companion", he would inevitably think of elemental creatures as a tool man without emotions.
Now that he has witnessed these vivid elemental lives, he has gradually abandoned his past views.
...
"Stop for a moment." A desert giant emerged from the rolling dunes, waved to Gondora in the sky and stopped.
Angel looked at Luoga opposite him, sighed helplessly, and slowly dropped Gondora.
On the way to the core area of the Tooth Pick Desert, this was the tenth time they were intercepted in just one hour.
As before, this very burly desert giant handed over a small cat that was only the size of a palm to Luo Jia with gentle movements that were not suitable for his body.
"Please trouble you." After seeing the little cat being carried into Luo Jia's arms, the desert giant breathed a sigh of relief and thanked them.
Angel said in a deep voice: "It's okay...it's the way anyway."
After saying goodbye to the desert giant, Gondola continued to fly, his journey was the same as before, but there were many more people taking the boat.
Not only the little gerbils, but also the little sand-type cat, but also the little snails, small foxes, small mushrooms, small earthworms, small lizards, etc., are all kinds of fun in Gondola and spit some sand.
These were all blocked by sand creatures along the way and then sent to Gondola.
According to an embarrassed patrolman, these are elemental elves that have just been born. Their best destination is to go to the core area and be taught by the wise. However, if the patrolmen in the outer desert are not accidental, they cannot leave their posts, so they naturally cannot send these elemental elves away. When they heard half-lings say that Angel took the little gerbils to "fly" with him, their eyes lit up, and they immediately waved when they saw the flying boats in the sky, hoping that they could send these elves along the way.
After all, these are all trivial matters, and maybe they can have some connections, so Angel is not easy to refuse, so the current scene comes.
The not-so-big gondola is already covered with elves.
If he was the earth wizard on the elemental side, if he was lucky, he was a desert wizard who refined sand-type magic, he would probably be very happy at this time. He was surrounded by various desert elves and might find a partner that suits him.
However, Angel is not a desert warlock, and his research on earth-type magic is almost gone, not to mention the relatively side-by-sided sand-type lineage in the earth-type.
So when he saw these elves spitting out the sand, he had no joy and even had a little itchy hands.
But after all, he was a naughty child, and he was still a naughty child who was not enlightened. In the end, Angel could only take a deep breath and endure it.
Fortunately, as the night began to deepen, these newborn elves also began to get tired. The elves, including Dan Gross, slowly fell into sleep, which made Angel breathe a little.
However, even though the elf has entered sleep time, the elemental creatures in the mature stage are still active, so Angel's flying boat still encounters many intercepted elemental creatures.
More elves were stuffed into the ship.
It can be said that this section of the road from the frontier to the core area is the longest that Angel has ever walked.
It took a full eight hours to reach the core area of the Tooth Picking Desert at Gondorana's extraordinary speed, and half of them were intercepted.
At this time, there were more than forty elves on the ship.
Angel was already a little regretful at this time. He shouldn't have brought the gerbil on the boat at the beginning, but he could just bring a mature elemental creature.
But regret is useless, things have already happened, so I can only accept it.
Fortunately, now they have arrived in the core area and will be freed soon.
The time for liberation came faster than expected. Under Luoga's guidance, they found the tooth extraction palace where the wise man was located in the core area in just half an hour.
This is the first building in a distinctly mature style that Angel saw in the tidal world.
It is a bit similar to a temple, without walls, and is composed of huge pillars.
As the sun rises, the sun shines into the tooth extraction palace, passing through the pillars, casting a large number of regular and dense shadows. As the sun rises and sunsets, it brings a sense of religious ritual.
"Is this palace built by earth-based creatures?" Angel asked to Luoga opposite while lowering Gondola.
Although Luo Jia has been studying abroad for several years, he has no idea who built the palace and has stammered for a long time without saying a word.
At this time, a very loud voice rang in Angel's ear: "The original tooth extraction palace was a historical ruin, which was said to have existed before the world's catastrophe. However, the tooth extraction palace was eroded by time and destroyed in the long river of history. Today, this tooth extraction palace was rebuilt and restored by our later generations on the original site."
Angel looked at the sound, but saw a humanoid creature made of metal sand at the gate of the palace, slowly closing his mouth.
Obviously, it was the one who answered Angel before.
"Teacher!" Luo Jia respectfully called out the other party's title.
Angel's expression flashed through his mind. He thought that this person was the wise man from the tooth extraction desert, and he was bitter.
Angel had heard before that platinum gold, as its name suggests, is an elemental creature made of metal, with an extremely huge body, lurking in the desert. Now, the humanoid body shape outside the palace is just a deliberate appearance like Magu.
Angel opened Gondola directly outside the palace gate.
Ku Platinum came up with a smile, but what it greeted was not Angel, nor Luo Jia, who showed Muru's expression to it, but the elemental elf who was still half awake and half asleep.
Ku Platinum carefully awakened these elves one by one, then carried them out from the boat, comforting them gently like a mother.
The elf who had been so bearish before was also very quiet under the comfort of the bitter platinum, and was quite warm under the rising sun.
Ku Platinum obviously really loves the elf, and he has to coax everyone for a while, and he has no time to pay attention to him and Luo Jia, the two "idle people".
Angel took this time to look at the palace with an unusual style behind him.
He has seen the "city" in Magu's body, and also seen the interlacing of Ruby Grottoes. These gathering places are somewhat imitating the meaning of human civilization. However, they do not have too specific reference objects, so they can only be built for granted. The final result is basically just the edge of human civilization, and is more inclined to the style of early primitive human aggregation areas.
But this palace, whether from the neatly arranged stone pillars, the pattern carvings in front of the hall, and the overall design, does not seem to be imitation, but a real human architecture.
Angel also heard what Ku Platinum said just now.
