Divine Flame Crystal

Chapter 425: The Interior of the Sky City

The Fallen God Academy is a huge castle suspended in the clouds. Its solid walls and violent magic fluctuations make any enemy daunted. According to the Holy See of Light, the Fallen God Academy is now occupied by an evil abyss wizard named Morgan, who enslaves the students of the academy with dark magic and threatens the peace of the entire kingdom.

The Knights of Light received a secret order from the Pope, asking them to recapture the Fallen Seminary, destroy Morgan and restore peace. The Knights of Light summoned the most elite knights from all corners of the Holy See of Light, each of whom was passionate about justice and angry about evil.

After careful planning, the Knights began their journey. They crossed steep mountains and traversed gloomy forests, overcoming various difficulties along the way, including attacks by monsters, bad weather, and ambushes by enemies. The knights' bravery and wisdom allowed them to keep moving forward in difficult situations.

Finally, they arrived at the Fallen God Academy when the sun was at its brightest. The Knights of Light formulated a careful siege plan. Some knights were responsible for luring away the defenders on the top of the city, while others secretly went around to the rear to look for possible weaknesses. Under the cover of the rich light element, the knights approached the city wall silently.

At noon, the battle horn resounded through the sky. The knights in the front launched a fierce charge to attract the attention of the defenders of the Fallen God Academy, while the priest team behind them found a relatively weak defense and planned to launch a tentative attack on the Fallen God Academy from here, and started a fierce battle with the so-called minions of Morgan.

Xingluo narrowed his eyes slightly. The crystal ball showed the situation around Luoshen Academy from a bird's-eye view. The dean injected a little magic power, and the picture in the crystal ball became clearer and clearer. At the same time, all kinds of gorgeous magic poured down, like a rain of fireworks set off from the sky, all falling on the group of light knights rushing in the front. Even the priests who were farther away were attacked. Luoshen Academy was like an impregnable war fortress, madly releasing its power, tearing to pieces any enemy who dared to approach.

After the first wave of attacks, the Knights of Light were defeated and lost a lot of knights. Even the priests who were far away left behind several corpses.

Xingluo heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this. It seemed that as long as Luoshen Academy was still in the air, it would have an absolute advantage. However, the dean's face was extremely serious at this moment. Without waiting for Xingluo to ask, the dean spoke first: "When I was mobilizing the crystal ball just now, I found that there was obvious resistance in the rotation of several gears inside Luoshen Academy. Xingluo, this matter can only be handed over to you, and there is no time to lose. We need to act immediately. I will give you the coordinates. Please be sure to solve the gear problem before the next attack."

Xingluo's relaxed mood suddenly became tense again, and he said in a serious tone: "Don't worry, leave this to me."

Looking at Xingluo's receding figure, the dean instantly looked much older. "It seems there really is a traitor."

Jin En also nodded solemnly and said, "And there is more than one, and they are not the traitors we monitored before."

Xingluo quickly followed the instructions of the dean and came to the interior of the mechanical alchemy city of Luoshen Academy. To enter here, he needed the magic items given to him by the dean himself, and he had to return them when the time came. This alchemy city was a fantasy fortress that combined ancient alchemy with mechanical technology. The internal structure of this war fortress was unique and complex, and each alchemy array was full of innovation and mystery.

Xingluo couldn't help but watch with a bit of obsession, but time was pressing, he could only use his powerful memory to imprint all the magic circles and alchemy techniques he saw in his mind, and then conduct a review and study them later when he had time. The most urgent task was to solve this anomaly.

Starfall Along the center of the city is a huge alchemy core, which gathers various alchemy devices and connects the entire city through a complex pipeline system. The core generates energy through alchemical reactions, providing power for the entire city, allowing it to float above the sky. Surrounding the alchemy core is the alchemist's maintenance room, where alchemists in the Great Magic Age studied the latest alchemy technology. Today's alchemists can only maintain this sky city regularly.

The infrastructure of the Sky City of the Fallen God Academy is composed of a sophisticated mechanical grid, including automated material transportation, energy distribution networks, and defense mechanisms. Most of these mechanical structures are hidden inside the Sky City, and only people like Xingluo who hold special magic items can enter.

This sky city not only has a powerful defense array, but also some devices that add to its beauty. Of course, this is also a display and application of alchemical technology. The outer wall of the academy is covered with color-changing alchemical glass, which automatically adjusts according to light and temperature; there is an automatically irrigated alchemical garden on the top of the castle, and there are even self-maintaining and self-cleaning alchemical mechanical equipment inside.

The Sky City also has parks, squares and leisure areas, which are all filled with mechanical and alchemical elements, such as automatic fountains, musical mechanical arms and alchemical sculptures, providing students with rich entertainment and rest places.

Of course, the most important thing in the entire Alchemy City is its defense system. In order to protect the Fallen God Academy, the Sky City is equipped with advanced defense systems, including alchemical shields, automatic turrets and humanoid magic guard machines. They can respond to threats quickly when necessary. It was these devices that repelled the Knights of Light just now, and even the dean didn't have to exert any effort. This shows how powerful the Sky City of the Fallen God Academy is.

In addition to some facilities on the ground, the city also has a huge underground network, including storage rooms, transport tunnels and emergency shelters, to ensure that the city can operate normally under various circumstances. Of course, this time Xingluo arrived at Mechanical Alchemy Maintenance Rooms No. 1 and No. 3.

Just now when the dean was mobilizing the Sky City for defense, he noticed the gears jamming. Obviously there was a problem here, and the person doing long-term maintenance work was a teacher who had been working at Luoshen Academy for ten years. Although Xingluo didn't know him, he had seen him in the academy before. The person who could do this job must be someone the dean trusted.

When Xingluo arrived at Maintenance Room No. 1, he was stunned for a moment. He saw a large number of human corpses lying in a mess. They must have experienced great pain before death, because none of these people died of natural causes, and everyone had a distorted expression on their face.

The strong smell of blood made Xingluo frown.

A strange magic circle was drawn on the ground, which was constantly absorbing the blood and energy of the dead students. The absorption of these things made the gears turn slower and slower. It was obvious that this was a long-planned sabotage.
