Chapter 1081: Light up this city

A slightly warm and pleasant breeze blew across the cheeks of the people standing on the ruins.

The shadowless sword was suspended around He Ao. He raised his head and looked at the scene ahead from afar.

At this moment, they were standing on a huge platform hundreds of meters high made of cement and earth.

The pyramid that collapsed in the aftermath of the fight between Howe and the prisoners was the main building on the platform.

And this platform seems to be standing at the southernmost side of the city.

Behind the platform is a hazy void, and in front of the platform, which is the direction that He Ao is looking at now, is a magnificent city.

On both sides of the platform, there are hundred-meter-long city walls made of cement and earth. These walls extend to both sides and connect on the north side of the city, winding together to form a regular circle.

The city in front of Heo was built in this regular circle.

The streets in the city also form a circle with the city center as the center. The concentric streets divide the entire city into circular areas.

Radial streets extending from the city center also run through these circular streets, forming a street network connecting the entire city.

A bright ball of light like the sun hangs above the city, spreading its light evenly to every corner of the city.

And in the center of the city, the center of all the concentric and radial streets, stands a magnificent tower.

To be precise, this is an obelisk that reaches into the sky.

It is square column-shaped overall, gradually shrinking from bottom to top, with four edges converging into a spire at the top.

There are no doors or buildings on its surface. It looks like it is cut from a whole piece of marble, and all four sides are as smooth as a mirror.

The red, yellow and blue lights flowed on the mirror-like surface, converging into a faint 'K'.

It is so tall that the "sun" light ball hanging in the sky seems to be suspended directly above its tip.

Just by looking at this huge obelisk from a distance, He Ao seemed to hear some distorted whispers drilling into his ears and buzzing in his mind.

An orange-gray light flashed in Howe's eyes.

With the help of the power of the Eye of Truth, Howe saw clearly the 'essence' of this glorious city.

A twisted and coiled mass of chaotic energy that seemed to be roaring violently.

The twisted power from high-level angelic beings spread throughout the entire space, forming one of the foundations of this city.

"Is that the 'sun' of this city?"

Ruilin walked over huge scattered cement stones to Heo's side. She blocked the sunlight with one hand and looked at the light ball on the top of the obelisk from afar with the other hand. "Is the real sun like this?"

"almost."

He Ao nodded slightly.

Strictly speaking, the 'sun' in this city is very realistic, both in terms of how it looks and how the sunlight shines on the city, it is almost the same as the real sun.

It's like being bathed in the brilliant sunshine.

He glanced at Ruilin. The female warrior didn't seem to be affected by the pollution of the obelisk.

It seemed that after being affected by the pollution of the City of Glory, Ruilin had gained some resistance to the "pollution" of the obelisk.

"very nice,"

Ruilin tentatively, carefully withdrew her hand, and looked at the "sun" seriously and carefully.

The light of gas lamps and electric lamps pales in comparison to the sunlight, even though it is not real sunlight.

Letting her snow-white and slightly transparent skin bathe in the light, Ruilin's drooping mouth corners finally lifted up a little.

"You can't see the 'sun' on the lower level."

She sighed in a low voice.

Because she had not been exposed to the sun for a long time, her skin was a sickly pale color, and her originally blue eyes were faintly purple due to the lack of melanin and exposed blood vessels.

The long-term lack of sunlight may also be the reason why the lower-level residents are prone to mutation.

Only a small number of highly inspired people like Ruilin, whose bodies are gradually transformed in the highly polluted environment of the lower level and adapted to the environment of the lower level, can have a relatively healthier physical condition.

"Aqiu——"

But Ruilin's gaze did not last too long. Her body's instinct pulled her to sneeze, and her whole body trembled.

“You can’t keep looking directly at the sun.”

He Ao shook his head and spoke slowly.

"This is my first time,"

Ruilin rubbed her nose awkwardly, stood up, looked at the 'sun' above her head again, and smiled, "That's great. I hope that one day, Ruili and I can bathe in the real sunshine."

Hearing her words, He Ao turned around and glanced at her.

Is this girl so good at planting flags?

“See those disturbing colored flags over there?”

He Ao retracted his gaze, raised his hand and pointed in the direction of a place near the city center.

It was a circular square on the west side of the towering obelisk. Flags of various colors were flying in the square, as if some kind of "ceremony" was being held.

Looking around from the square, vehicles are passing through the streets and heading towards the square.

"There is?"

Ruilin looked into the distance in the direction of He Ao's finger.

At this height, the streets and vehicles below seemed as small as ants, but the square seemed to be quite large, so it was quite obvious. She found the square immediately, "Are they holding a festival?"

"The Glory Ceremony,"

Howe replied calmly, recalling the thoughts that had just come from the mark placed on the prisoner, and continued,
"To be precise, it is the pre-festival of the 'Glory Ceremony'. The Glory Ceremony is a ceremony they prepare for the establishment of the City of Glory, and the pre-festival is one of the preparations for the Glory Ceremony. It is the most important ceremony before the Glory Ceremony."

"Are they going to offer any sacrifice at this ceremony?"

After listening to what He Ao said, Ruilin began to react.

He Ao turned around and glanced at the ruins behind him.

The huge tentacles in the ruins were rapidly decaying, and the originally sturdy cages were shattered and scattered all over the platform.

Then he said slowly, "Your sister, and everyone who was previously detained here, have been transferred to that square."

Hearing this, Ruilin paused slightly.

But before she could ask, He Ao turned around, looked at her, and continued, "But the ceremony will take some time to start. During this time, you can go and save your sister."

Then he leaped out with a big stride, and in a flash appeared at the left rear of the entire platform.

Ruilin quickly climbed over the boulder and chased after him.

Then she saw He Ao picked up a two or three meter high concrete block and threw it aside. He then used his feet to push away the concrete block on the ground, revealing a secret door underneath.

Ruilin ran over quickly and opened the secret door, revealing an iron ladder underneath the secret door. The ladder was about three meters long and led into a deep passage.

He Ao looked at the opened secret door and said slowly,
“There is an emergency elevator inside. You can go directly from the elevator to the underground sewer. The elevator has only one down button. You press it and go in. It will take you directly to the sewer.

"The sewers can lead to any place in this city, but you should have some experience on how to get there."

This information was what passed through the prisoner's mind when he was about to die. It was the emergency escape route he prepared for himself. Very few people knew about it, and of course, he couldn't use it.

"Um,"

Ruilin nodded. "There are also sewers on the lower level. There are usually maps corresponding to the streets on the ground, which is convenient for inspection. I know how to find the way."

"That's good,"

He Ao nodded slightly, then he turned around and looked below the platform.

Ruilin also looked down along with his gaze. Densely packed vehicles were gathering under the platform at this moment. They seemed to have received an alarm and were rushing towards this side as "reinforcements".

"Go find your sister and try to save her."

Then, He Ao's voice rang in her ears, "If it's any later, there might not be a chance."

Hearing this, Ruilin was slightly stunned, then she looked back at the secret door in front of her, and then looked at He Ao, "It seems that there is only one secret passage. Won't you leave with me?"

"I?"

He Ao turned sideways and looked below the platform.

Support vehicles have surrounded the platform and are entering it from the outside.

Behind them were vehicles bathed in light, and skinny figures following behind them.

He Ao's gaze moved back little by little, passing through the city and the streets, and finally fell on the towering obelisk and the blazing "sun" on top of the obelisk.

"Need not,"

He turned around, looked at Ruilin, and said slowly, "I will go and do what I should do."

"what's up?"

Ruilin was stunned and asked subconsciously.

He Ao glanced at Ruilin, then turned his gaze to the bottom of the platform again and said calmly,
“Set this city on fire.”

A slightly warm breeze blew through Howe's hair, and the huge obelisk gathered together, flickering in the distorted light of the city.

He Ao retracted his gaze, looked at Ruilin beside him, and said slowly, "Go."

Hearing this, Ruilin was slightly stunned, then she bowed deeply to Heo, jumped out of the secret door, and ran to the deepest part of the passage.

He Ao turned around and looked at the city below him. Looking at the dense crowds of people, he put the Shadowless Sword behind him and jumped.

The young man's figure flew across the sky like an eagle, and the whistling wind made his clothes rustle.

Main World: Antarctica

The blizzard obscured the stars and the sky, and dense snowflakes fell into the huge cracks in the ice, but they could not fill these cracks no matter what.

In the center of the snow, the speeding train stopped, hovering above the snowflakes, and the train doors opened.

He Ao's real body, whose calves were completely submerged in the snow, glanced at the open train door and raised his hand.

Retrieve objects from the air.

A satellite phone specially designed for high altitude areas instantly appeared in his hand. The phone was carrying the number of 'Hao Yi'.

The interference caused by the blizzard and the power of the Wheel of Stars would seriously affect satellite communications, so Howo asked the Vellore to go out for a walk to facilitate receiving messages.

At this moment, there was a new message on the phone, sent by Li Cheng.

Li Cheng said that they were already studying the potion formula that Hao Yi had given to the research institute before, but the names of most of the extraordinary animals and plants in it were a little different from those in the main world. They were looking for materials that met the requirements according to the potion characteristics in the formula.

This potion was made by Lin Na in the previous copy. It is an 'extraordinary stimulant' that can improve the efficiency of the flow of extraordinary energy in a short period of time. This 'extraordinary stimulant' can also improve martial arts aptitude to a certain extent.

Before the final battle of the copy, He Ao took the time to read the contents of the chip and wrote down the recipe and production process.

Then, when he was trying to control the Wheel of Stars, he also wrote down the formula and sent it to Li Cheng, asking him to try whether the research institute could replicate these potions.

Now it seems that even though the formula Lina gave is very simple and easy to understand, it is still a bit troublesome to make this potion due to some "differences in technical terms".

Retracting his thoughts, He Ao continued to flip through the lower half of Li Cheng's message.

The second half is talking to Hao Yi about things in the Republic of Trok.

In fact, he had sent a message to confirm with 'Hao Yi' before whether the Glory Society was really related to 'K'. After receiving a denial from 'Hao Yi', he often sent messages to communicate with 'Hao Yi' about the investigation of the Glory Society.

The second half of the message was that he was telling He Ao that Yan Yue had successfully arrived in Fikeli, the capital of the Trok Republic, and had reunited with Lin Chichi.

Rhodel also successfully arrived there.

And he himself was on his way there.

After reading the message sent by Li Cheng, He Ao quickly replied a few words and then threw the phone back to Vilora.

After only a short stop, the Velora was already covered with a layer of white snow. It closed the door and drove out of the snowstorm.

Standing in the center of this fierce snowstorm, He Ao raised his head and looked at the dark clouds above his head.

He raised his hand, and two nested orange-grey rings appeared in his pupils. An eyeball embedded in an inverted triangle was outlined in the snowstorm behind him.

The twisted and terrifying force directly tore apart the wind and snow around him, and transformed them into flowing ice crystals under the extremely cold sky, splashing out in all directions.

Howo didn't care about the impact caused by the Eye of Truth. He raised his head and looked at the dark clouds above his head.

At a certain moment, the huge cloud flickered, and the entire sky seemed to tremble.

The violent snow and cumulus clouds were torn apart by some powerful force at this moment, and the bright stars appeared again in the clear sky.

But almost in the blink of an eye, the stars in the sky dimmed, and an invisible and huge shadow stretching for hundreds of kilometers covered the entire sky.

These shadows enveloped the sky and earth, darkening the night sky, and little by little, a huge wheel made of stars slowly emerged from the shadows.

A huge and twisted force was instantly injected into Howe's body, and the seeping blood spread and covered his skin.

He Ao seemed to have long been accustomed to such shocks. He looked at the sky, and his eyes, which had turned slightly red, did not blink.

Compared to his first summoning, the coiled star wheel had become much more solid and was no longer illusory and elusive.

Howe stared at the very center of the star wheel, at the huge star in the middle surrounded by nine stars.

The central star is carved with fine lines, making it look like a lifelike eye.

And at the moment when He Ao was looking at those lines, the star that had been standing in the center suddenly began to rotate slowly, and the carved pupil lines looked downward at He Ao.

It was like a giant eyeball, looking down at He Ao.

He Ao had experienced this kind of "gaze" many times before. He looked into the eyes of the star with an expressionless face, and the orange-gray circles in his eyes flashed with dazzling light.

Behind him, the eyes embedded in the triangle slowly raised up and made eye contact with the pupils on the stars.

At this moment, a powerful force that seemed to tear every inch of his flesh and blood surged into his body with violent pollution.

Fine streams of light flowed along the lines of the Star Eye, constantly depicting the entire eye.

At the same time, those fine lines also appeared on the Eye of Truth embedded in the inverted triangle behind Heo.

Feeling the power that transcends time and space, He Ao took a deep breath.

Without any movement of his body, he began to guide the power of the Eye of Truth, actively following this mysterious connection, spreading towards the wheel of stars in the sky.

His idea is right and his method is right.

Now, there is only one last step left.

Four thousand six hundred words. Good luck in the college entrance examination!
