Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 2201 Ancient Palace
As soon as the desert halfling assistant appeared, he stared at them with vigilant and unkind eyes.

Although it didn't yell to fight and kill immediately, it could already see obvious hostility from its eyes.Moreover, under the halfling's feet, the field of quicksand is expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it won't take long before it will completely submerge the area they are standing on.

At this moment, Lorgar announced his name aloud.

The desert halflings had obviously never heard of Lorgar, but Lorgar was an earth-type creature like it. With the shape of a stone, the desert halflings immediately understood that Lorgar came from their brotherly friendly country—the Wild Stone Wasteland.

Therefore, the desert halfling did not rush to threaten them, but hesitated for a while, and said to Luo Jia: "Wait a moment, I will go to the patrol to verify."

After speaking, the desert halfling burrowed into the quicksand and disappeared.

After about 3 minutes, the halfling's figure hovered in a slight wind, and finally reappeared in front of them.

Compared to before, its expression at this time is less guarded and a little more friendly: "It turns out to be Junior Brother Luo Jia."

junior?Luo Jia's eyes lit up, and he looked at the halfling opposite: "Are you also the teacher's student?"

The halfling grinned 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 patrollers have already notified the teacher when they learned of the return of Junior Brother Luo Jia. I believe the teacher will be very happy to see you." After the halfling said, he stepped out of the way and pointed out the direction for Luo Jia.

Luo Jia glanced at Angel next to him, hesitated for a moment, and said to the half-body human floating in the air: "I have a request..."

"Fly to the teacher's place?" The halfling looked at Luo Jia in surprise, this guy doesn't look like he can fly.

Luo Jia explained briefly, saying that he was not the one who could fly, but with the help of Angel's props.

"So that's it." The halfling seemed to be stupefied, but it still didn't know what it was, it just didn't want to expose its ignorance.

"Junior Brother Luo Jia must know the taboo of flying. I can't decide on this. Let's let the patrol tell the wise man and see what the teacher said."

After saying that, the halfling fell into the quicksand again.

A few minutes later, the halfling appeared again: "The wise man agreed. However, according to the rules, you need to find a tooth-extracting desert proto-creature to fly with you."

When the halfling said this, he showed a hint of sympathy: "I can tell you clearly, there are no earth-type creatures that can fly around here for hundreds of miles."

In other words, if Luo Jia can't find a companion, he can only move slowly to the core area with his feet.

Luo Jia's eyes showed distress, and he looked at the halfling involuntarily... This halfling not only looks like a magic lamp monster in fairy tales, but also has the characteristics of a magic lamp monster. It is suspended in mid-air and should be able to fly. Bar?
The halfling seemed to understand Lorgar's meaning, and waved his hands again and again: "I can't do it, I'm what you call...the guardian. At most, I can move nearby, and I can't leave too far away."

The halfling's refusal made Lorgar sigh helplessly.

Seeing that the little flowers on Luojia's body were wilting, the halfling couldn't bear it, and suggested: "Why don't you search for it while walking? After you find it, you can fly across."

Luo Jia turned his head and handed over the decision to Angel.

Angel pondered for a moment, then said to the halfling: "Does the companion have to be able to fly? If not, is it okay?"

"The regulations do not require that the companion must be able to fly..." the halfling muttered.

Angel waved his hand lightly, released the gondola, and suspended it in mid-air: "My flying boat can carry an earth-type creature. I'll find one who can't fly. As long as it stays on the boat, it's considered a flying companion, right?"

The halfling hesitated for a moment, feeling as if its brain was spinning, and finally nodded: "It should be fine."

After being confirmed by the halfling, Angel quickly turned around, and gently weighed a baby gerbil that was only a week old at a place hundreds of meters away.

"This little guy was born during the Voice of the World, right? Can I take it with me?"

The halfling was silent for a while, and finally nodded: "The regulations do not prohibit creatures in the elf stage from being companions."

Angor smiled slightly, and put the struggling little gerbil into Luo Jia's hands: "Then let's say goodbye first."

After finishing speaking, Angel brought Lorgar and Dangros back to the gondola, and under the complicated eyes of the halfling, he controlled the spaceship and flew away into the distance.

On the gondola, Luo Jia, who was comforting the frightened little gerbil, showed a contemplative expression on his face: "I didn't expect to be able to do this. Alas, I can't let go of my thoughts, or else I'll be reasonable. I should have been able to think of such a simple method just now."

"Sure enough, Teacher Ku Bojin is right. I still need to learn more, otherwise my vision will always be limited within the established framework."

When Luo Jia said that he was going to study, his eyes lit up brightly.

Angel came to the Tidal Realm, and this was the first time he saw such an elemental creature that was thirsty for knowledge.

The more you understand the elemental creatures, the more you find that they are actually the same as all intelligent life, and they all have different personalities. There are Dan Gross who lives idols as beliefs, there are wind and sand brigades who indulge and love freedom, and there are Luo who regard learning as a pursuit. Gal.

When Angel heard about elemental creatures before, even if the wizard called them "partners", he could not help but think of elemental creatures as tool people without emotions.

Witnessing these fresh elemental lives now has also made him gradually abandon the stereotypes of the past.

……

"Stop for a while." A desert giant emerged from the undulating sand dunes, waving to the gondola in the sky to stop.

Angor and Lorga on the opposite side looked at each other, sighed helplessly, and slowly lowered the Gondola.

On the way to the core area of ​​the Tooth Extraction Desert, in just one hour, this was the tenth time they were stopped.

As in the previous situation, this very burly desert giant handed a small milk cat the size of a palm to Luo Jia with gentle movements that did not fit his body shape.

"I'm sorry to bother you." The desert giant heaved a sigh of relief when seeing the little milk cat being embraced by Lorga, and thanked them.

Angel said in a deep voice, "It's okay... Anyway, I'm going along the way."

After bidding farewell to the desert giant, the gondola continued to fly, and the route was the same as before, but there were many more people on board.

There are not only little gerbils, but also this little sand-type milk cat, as well as little snails, little foxes, little mushrooms, little earthworms, little lizards... and other desert elves, chattering and playing around in gondolas , Spit some sand by the way.

These were all blocked by sand creatures along the way, and then please send them to the gondola.

According to an embarrassed patrolman, these are elemental elves who were born not long ago, and their best destination is to go to the core area to be taught by wise men.But the guardians and patrollers of the outer desert can't leave their posts if there is no accident. Naturally, they can't send these elemental elves away. As soon as his eyes lit up, he saw the flying boat in the sky and immediately beckoned, hoping to send these little elves off along the way.

After all, these are trivial things, maybe they can be used to build some relationship, and Angel is not easy to refuse, so this scene happened now.

The small gondola is already full of elves.

If he is an earth wizard on the elemental side, and if he is lucky enough to be a desert warlock who has refined sand magic, he will probably be very happy at this time. Surrounded by all kinds of desert elves, maybe he can find a partner that suits him .

However, Angor is not a desert warlock, and he has almost no research on earth-type magic, not to mention the sand-type branch of the earth-type, which is relatively partial.

So seeing these elves spitting sand everywhere, he didn't feel any joy, and even felt a little itchy.

But after all, he was an idiot, and he was still an idiot, so Angel could only take a deep breath and endure it.

Fortunately, as the night began to darken, these newborn elves also began to get tired. Including Dangros, all the elves slowly fell into sleep, which made Angel breathe a little easier.

However, even though the elves had already entered sleep time, the mature elemental creatures were still active, so Angel's airship passed by, and still encountered many intercepted elemental creatures.

Stuffed more elves into the boat.

It can be said that this section of the road from the frontier to the core area is the longest that Angel has traveled.

It took a full eight hours to reach the core area of ​​the Tooth Extraction Desert at the super speed of Gondola, and a half of the time was being intercepted.

At this time, there were more than forty elves on board.

Angor already had some regrets at this time. He shouldn't have brought the little gerbil aboard the boat, but just a mature elemental creature.

But it's useless to regret, everything has happened, you can only accept it.

Fortunately, now that they have arrived at the core area, they will be freed soon.

The time for relief came faster than expected. Under Luo Jia's guidance, they only took half an hour in the core area to find the tooth extraction palace where the wise man was.

This is the first building with an obvious mature style that Angell saw in the tidal world.

It's a bit like a temple, without walls, and it's all made up of huge pillars.

As the sun rises, the sun shines into the tooth extraction palace, passes through the pillars, and casts a large number of regular and dense shadows. When the sun rises and sets, it has a sense of religious ritual.

"Is this palace built by earth creatures?" Angel asked Lorgar who was facing him while lowering the gondola towards the palace.

Although Lorgar has been "studying abroad" here for a few years, it doesn't know who built the palace, so it hesitated for a long time without making a sound.

At this time, a rather resounding voice sounded in Angel's ear: "The original Tooth Extraction Palace is a relic of history. It is said that it existed before the world catastrophe. However, the Tooth Extraction Palace was eroded by the years and destroyed in the long river of history. Middle. Today’s tooth extraction palace was rebuilt and restored by our latecomers on the original site.”

Angel looked at the source of the sound, but saw a humanoid creature made of metal sand at the gate of the palace, slowly closing its mouth.

Obviously, it was the one who answered Angel earlier.

"Teacher!" Luo Jia respectfully called out the other party's title.

Angel's expression flashed to realization, thinking that this is the wise man in the tooth extraction desert, bitter platinum.

Angel had heard of it before. As its name suggests, Bitter Platinum is a piece of elemental creature made of metal. It is huge and lurking under the desert.Now, the humanoid figure displayed outside the palace is nothing more than a deliberate appearance like Ma Gu.

Angel drove the gondola directly outside the gate of the palace.

Ku Platinum greeted it with a smile, but what it greeted was not Angel, nor Lorgar who showed admiration for it, but the elemental elves who were still half awake and half asleep.

Ku Bojin carefully woke up these elves one by one, and then carried them out of the boat, comforting them gently like a mother.

The little elf, who was so impatient before, also behaved very calmly under the comfort of Kubojin, and was quite warm under the brilliance of the rising sun.

Ku Bojin obviously really loves the elves, and he has to coax each of them for a long time, and he has no time to pay attention to him and Luo Jia, the two "idlers".

Angel took advantage of this time to look at the unusually styled palace behind him.

He has seen the "city" in Magu's body, and the criss-crossing in the Lubi Grottoes. These gathering places all seem to imitate human civilization.It's just that they don't have a specific reference object, so they can only be built as a matter of course. The final result is basically only on the edge of human civilization, and is more inclined to the style of the early gathering area of ​​primitive humans.

But this palace, no matter from the neatly arranged stone pillars, the patterned carvings in front of the palace, and the overall design, it is not like an imitation, but a real human building.

Angel also heard what Ku Bojin said just now.

There is no need for Kubojin to deceive himself, then these palaces appeared before the catastrophe.If the palace was really built by humans, that is to say, Feng may not be the first person to discover the Tidal Realm. Before Feng, when the Tidal Realm had not yet merged with the wizarding world, someone had already found it here, and built the palace.

This is normal, after all, the footsteps of wizards are all over the metaplane.

If the person who built the Tooth Extraction Palace was really a human wizard, then he must be very powerful, and most likely he was a lone walker.Because the other party can disdain elemental creatures, and never thought of using the coordinates of the tidal world as a breakthrough point for interests, it explained a lot of problems.

Of course, it is also possible that he wandered here unintentionally and died before he could spread the information.It's just that this possibility is relatively small. If you have the leisure to build a palace, you shouldn't have no time to pass on the message.

No matter which one it is, Angel is very interested in this palace, even if it is not human beings who build the palace, but an intelligent civilization from an earlier era in the Tidal Realm.

Maybe, some residual information that is even more ancient than Feng's arrival can be found here.

After more than ten minutes, Ku Bojin finally appeased all the elemental elves and planted the seeds of wisdom in them. Ku Bojin threw the elemental elves into the four wilds, allowing them to thrive in the core area.

Seeing many elemental elves disappearing before his eyes one by one, Ku Bojin withdrew his kind smile, and turned to look at Angel and Lorgar.

As a student Luo Jia, Ku Bojin knew very well, so he put it aside for the time being.

Ku Platinum was even more curious about this life that looked very different from elemental creatures.

"Are you... a human?"
