Chapter 56 Shadow Valley

A week flew by quickly.

Since the underground world is generally dark and lightless, Thain, who is on the floating ship, sometimes walks on the deck, but does not know the specific route they take to the Valley of Shadows.

When Thain and others finally arrived at a brightly lit underground valley a week later, he said to Lina next to him with some uncertainty: "Is this the Valley of Shadows?"

A large number of magic crystal lamps and magic equipment appeared in every corner of Shadow Valley, illuminating the place like daylight.

Including Thane, he also saw two huge magic towers rising high.

A blue energy shield covering the entire Shadow Valley persists for a long time. Its elemental energy source seems to be the two magic towers in the center of the valley.

After arriving in Shadow Valley, in addition to feeling the terrifying aura of more than a dozen official black magicians, Thane also discovered many elemental puppets here.

Some of the equipment and materials unloaded from the floating ship were carried by these earth elements to the corresponding locations.

The dull faces and facial features indicate that these earth elements do not have much intelligence and should have been summoned by powerful black magicians.

It is equivalent to the skeleton warrior summoned by Thain using low-level magic skull summoning.

But these earth elements are obviously more than Thane's thin skeleton. He estimates that even the smallest earth element can knock his little skeleton apart with a slap.

He just didn't know how high the specific power level of these earth elements was. There were twenty or thirty earth elements appearing in his eyes in the entire Shadow Valley at this moment.

Which powerful black magician was it?

After arriving at Shadow Valley, the black magic apprentices who had been in the cabin for a week also stepped out of the cabin at the urging of the official black magicians and Owl Academy supervisors.

Thain also saw the figure of Owl Qi.

However, they did not have any conversation, just nodded slightly.

The black magic apprentices are basically gathering together in small groups at the moment.

If you look carefully, you will find that among the middle and high-level apprentices, those who become masters basically stay together under the same master.

As for those middle and low-level apprentices who have not apprenticed as apprentices, and even weak entry-level apprentices, they live in the same dormitory or have a close relationship.

There are very few complete loners.

Thane took his girlfriend Lina to find his senior brother Zorro and

Senior sister Feier.

Although Fatty Boss didn't come over directly, he was standing not far from Thain at the moment.

Meili didn't come straight over. She had her own school, and now she was staying with her two senior sisters.

"Our stay in Shadow Valley will not be too short this time. Although it is a large area, due to terrain restrictions, there are not too many tents, and the instructor cannot help us in this regard."

"So we have to seize two tents later." Eldest brother Zorro whispered to Thane.

"Okay." Thain replied.

While he was talking, the whistle sounded.

The floating ship that originally brought Thain and others here slowly lifted into the sky after unloading all the things, until it disappeared in the middle of the dark underground world without a trace.

…

The tent that Thain and others finally occupied was the golden area located on the right side of one of the two magic towers in the valley.

The location closer to the magic tower means that if any crisis or accident occurs, they can immediately approach the magic tower and seek the blessing of the official black magicians in the magic tower.

In addition, the terrain here is relatively flat and open, not far from the huge magic altar in the center of the valley.

Standing at the entrance of the tent, Thane could overlook the magic altar emitting white elemental fluorescent light.

After being introduced by his senior brother, Thane knew that the space-time rift was located in the magic altar and was fixed by the altar.

The Black Magic Academy really has no one to deal with. When seizing these two tents, Thane and others also had small conflicts with two other groups of Black Magic apprentices.

Senior apprentices and quasi-magicians are indeed rarely seen in the academy on weekdays, but this trip to Shadow Valley, it was obvious that all the first-level apprentices in the academy were packed and brought here by the official black magicians.

There are a total of eleven quasi-magicians and twenty-six senior apprentices. The power of the apprentices in the Black Magic Academy surprised Thain secretly.

When the tents were allocated, the two women, Mayfair and Lina, were assigned together, while Thain lived with his senior brother.

Fatty Boss came over at some point.

For the sake of Thain's face and the fat man's filial ingot of red copper, senior brother Zorro turned a blind eye and acquiesced to the fat man sleeping in the corner of their tent.

Senior brother Zorro is the person who is most like his mentor Mosheduo. During his study life at the Black Magic Academy, he was obsessed with experiments and alchemical research every day.

Let alone the opposite sex, I don’t even have a friend I can talk to.

Just like other quasi-magicians that Thain didn't know or even heard of.

Senior Brother Zorro is also a strange, powerful and cold presence to most of the magic apprentices in the academy.

…

On the second day after arriving in Shadow Valley, the official black magicians issued a series of orders.

Sure enough, it was quite urgent this time for the academy to summon all the apprentices to carry out the Shadow Valley mission.

Eleven quasi-magicians, including senior brother Zorro, are the first group of beings to enter the depths of the magic altar.

I don’t know if he had the care of his mentor Mosheduo, but the senior brother was ranked second to last among the eleven quasi-magicians.

"Tell me, can these little guys help us place the coordinate generator on the other side of the space-time rift?" When the approved magicians, including Zoro, stepped into the magic altar, in the magic tower in the valley, a The black magician asked the person next to him.

"Who knew, this space-time rift is so small that it can't even accommodate first-level creatures."

"Moses and the Vice-Dean spent so long here just to continuously strengthen the altar of time and space so that the altar can protect the fragile bodies of these little guys."

"But despite this, unstable space-time rifts are extremely dangerous to us, let alone little guys like them."

"It would be good if two-thirds of them were sent over in the end, not to mention we don't know what's going on at the other end yet." A black magician shook his head and replied.

There are too many uncertainties in the exploration of alien planes, let alone through cracks in time and space, rather than coming directly from outside the plane.

If the other side of the space-time rift is a barren land that is completely unsuitable for biological survival, these little guys will be out of luck.

In fact, the demiplane of resources that most black magicians in Mensobra City long for is, under normal circumstances, a dangerous place where it is difficult for creatures below level one to live.

For example, if it were a demiplane of fire elements, and Thain waited for his apprentice to come over, he would probably be roasted and fucked before long.

Any world that can be adapted to survive by weak creatures below level one is a world with complete rules.

But these worlds are also accompanied by dangers. Even the rules and climate environment are similar to the wizarding world. As outsiders in the past, Thain and others will inevitably be squeezed out by the will of the plane, as well as the indigenous groups of the plane. hostility.

Therefore, no matter what the specific situation is on the other side of the space-time rift.

These apprentices, who were not even at the level of first-level biology, almost always had a narrow escape from death.

It’s no wonder that mentor Moses went to great lengths to prepare so many life-saving tools for Thain and the others.
