Chapter 409 The Breath of the Dead
A few minutes later, Naomi's figure emerged from the crack again.
"What's going on inside?" Barn asked impatiently.
Naomi's facial features were hidden in the hood, making it impossible to see her expression, but her voice was a little hesitant: "It's not the same as expected."
"This is definitely the ruins of Netheril, right?"
Tang Sen raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"
"I haven't explored it in depth, but just looking at it from the surface." Naomi paused: "The aura of undead inside is very strong, and I'm pretty sure there are a lot of undead creatures inside."
"Which ruins don't have undead creatures in them?" Barn said matter-of-factly: "Isn't this a standard feature of ruins?"
"No." Tang Sen frowned slightly: "The reason why undead creatures appear in ruins is usually because they are located on the main material plane, and most of them are buried deep underground, so they attract undead creatures to station themselves. But this ruins is in In an independent demiplane.”
"Unless the ruins themselves contain research on necromancy, or there are foreign necromancers entering this demiplane."
Baan was stunned for a moment: "Boss, you mean to say that we were caught first?"
"You have to go in and take a look to find out." Tang Sen let out a sigh of relief.
The magical country of Netheril is well-known in the continent of Faerûn. No spellcaster will refuse to explore a ruins related to Netheril in order to obtain those advanced magical knowledge.
Although the location of this ruins is hidden, since dwarfs like Mr. Alvin who have no spellcasting ability can find it, those high-level and even legendary mages with great magical powers can naturally find it.
Maybe it had been completely emptied out.
But Tang Sen is not worried. Since this relic triggered the purchase task of "Iolum's Immortality Technique", it means that even if he cannot find this product in it, he can still find clues about this product.
As for other magic knowledge and magic props, even if they are evacuated, it will not affect Tang Sen's ultimate goal.
"Then let's go!" Cui Xi cheered: "I have never experienced an adventure in another dimension!"
"It is a man-made demiplane, and it is different from an alien plane." Baan grabbed her, walked to the front, and said: "Also, the situation inside is unknown. As a spell caster, please stand as a warrior. Look at the adamantine plate armor on my body from behind, it is my duty to stand in front of the team."
With that said, he stepped directly into the crack.
Cui Xi followed closely behind, and her figure disappeared into the blue light. Tang Sen narrowed his eyes slightly and let the space of the surgical fruit expand around his body. He remained alert and walked in.
This step is like crossing the boundary wall and entering another world.
The first thing Tang Sen saw was the gray sky. Those gray colors did not seem to be composed of clouds, but frightening turbulence.
"That's space turbulence." He heard Cui Xi's slightly excited voice: "I've read in the book that if you are swept away by these turbulences, you may wander outside the main material plane forever. In the gap in space, there is no way back. There are many adventure stories related to space turbulence. If you are lucky, maybe space turbulence will take you to an extremely rich plane, such as gold everywhere. Or magic materials. From then on, you will become rich overnight."
"It is also possible to be taken directly to the deepest part of hell!" Barn warned: "You'd better not have any rash ideas. Even a legendary mage may not be easily swept away by the turbulent currents."
Tang Sen ignored the conversation between the two and continued to observe this demiplane.
In addition to the spatial turbulence, Tang Sen could also see a huge scar on the eastern skyline - the blue crack was hundreds of meters long, and he didn't know where it led.
In addition, cracks of different sizes can often be seen in the surrounding sky. The one where Tang Sen and others came in is just an insignificant one among them.
The magic barrier of this demiplane has been fragmented, so space turbulence will appear directly in the plane.
"It seems that this demiplane's time is running out."
"Maybe not long after, this place will be completely separated from the main material plane and become one of the countless ruins floating in the endless void."
Under the gray sky, there is a vast plain. The dark brown soil is filled with an ominous atmosphere, and some places are even shrouded in fog.
As Naomi said, there is a strong aura of death here.
Tang Sen even saw low-level zombies wandering aimlessly in the distance.
As far as the eye can see, at the end of the plain, Tang Sen can see a tall tower emitting a faint blue light. Its lower part is covered by a suspicious fog, but it can still be seen that this tall tower once was Brilliant - those magic lines are still functioning even after a long time.
"This seems to be a demiplane created by a Netherese mage to build his own mage tower." Trixi said: "A mage tower condenses almost all the knowledge of the mage. If that mage has If there is any legacy left, it must be in the tower.”
"It seems that that is our destination." Barn said: "The good news is that this time we finally don't have to face the annoying maze. The bad news is that we have to cross this plain."
"I have a very bad feeling. This journey is definitely not going smoothly."
"It's just some undead creatures." Cui Xi patted Barn on the shoulder and comforted: "Don't worry, any undead creature can be solved with fireball. If that doesn't work, there will be meteor explosions!"
"I feel worse." Barn said without being comforted at all, and scolded: "Don't pat the dwarf on the shoulder! Miss Mage, this is a very impolite behavior for the dwarf! Second only to touching the head!"
"Sorry." Trish suddenly blushed: "I will pay attention next time."
"Get ready to go." Tang Sen interrupted the conversation between the two: "We have a long way to go."
"Naomi, it's a smooth road here. I don't need you to explore the way in advance. I just ask you to pay attention to the magic traps and be wary of incoming monsters."
Naomi nodded: "I don't sense any magic traps at the moment, but the fog on the left makes me feel very uncomfortable. I think we'd better go around there."
"It is a very rational thing to avoid some meaningless battles." Tang Sen nodded and looked at the tall tower at the end.
"I hope this trip is worthwhile."
