510 The Chosen One
In the era of gray fog, the layout of each ring city was similar, with a tall tower as the core and then expanded outward. The completion of each tower represents a new ring city in the world, and the collapse of a tall tower also represents the complete fall of a ring city.
However, it has not been built for nearly a hundred years now. There is even a saying among the people that all rings of cities were actually ordinary gray fog strongholds at the beginning. As long as a tall tower is built on the fire of the gray fog stronghold according to a special method, the stronghold can be expanded into a ring city. However, the city lords of major ring cities now take this method as their own, just to prevent the emergence of new ring cities and consolidate their own rights.
Because of this statement, there are even many gray fog strongholds who have used the city-ring tower as a model to build their own towers.
Of course, these behaviors ended in failure without exception. Those who truly understand this only treat it as a joke. After all, as long as you have certain authority and contribution value in the Guardians Association, you will understand that the establishment of a tower is not that simple, and the establishment of a new tower requires countless lives as a price.
Not to mention, the high towers can be migrated, but the fire of the gray fog stronghold cannot move after solidification. This is destined that the fire of the gray fog stronghold cannot exist as the predecessor of the high tower.
When adventures in the grey fog, if you are lucky, you can even find abandoned strongholds as the base, which are all "relics" left by the migrant strongholds.
Recalling the information about the tower in his heart, Sawyer and his party also came to the core area of the city under the leadership of Royna, and finally stopped in front of the tower.
Unlike Soya imagined, the entire tower has no doors or windows except the top. The sky blue surface is smooth and there is no trace of bricks and stones. It is like a cylinder that soars straight into the sky, but the top is like a pavilion supported by seven pillars, hidden in the clouds and mist, emitting a faint red light.
Sawyer knew that the source of the light was a pile of ashes that seemed to have just burned out, which were traces of the existence of the witches of the previous generation.
Royna, who was in front of the tower, seemed to be sensing something. After a few seconds of silence, he turned around and pointed to Gregory and Sawyer: "You two come with me, the witch wants to see you, as for you two..."
Royner looked at Corey and Hall, and pointed to a guard: "Just follow him, he will take you to rest."
The four of them dared not have any objection to Royner's arrangement. Even Corey just glanced at Gregory with concern, and then reluctantly left with the guards.
After all the guards left, Royna looked at Saoya and the others again, turned around and walked towards the tower, walking all the way to the tower but kept walking. The whole person seemed to have passed through a layer of water and penetrated into the wall of the tower. Gregory and Saoya looked at each other and saw the hesitation on each other's faces, but then Royna's voice came out of the tower: "What are you two waiting for?"
"Let's go."
Sawyer shrugged. It is impossible to escape. It is impossible to escape anywhere in the city. He can fight hard and cannot beat him. Only obedient things can barely save his life.
After patting Gregory on the shoulder, Sawyer took the lead in walking towards the wall of the tower. The gate that was imaginaryly covered by illusions did not appear. He could feel that the wall was real, but was covered by another layer of space. Sawyer seemed to have passed through the wall, but in fact he just entered another layer of space.
In other words, it is an extremely short space channel.
Just two steps away, Sawyer walked out of this space passage again and entered the interior of the tower.
The inside of the tower is amazingly large. From the outside, even the thickest bottom of the tower is only a radius of more than a hundred meters. However, where Sawyer is located is a dark square with a radius of hundreds of meters. The only place similar to the tower may be the material of the walls on the border of the square.
"You're finally here."
As Gregory followed Sawyer into the dark square, a soft voice came into the ears of the two. Sawyer looked in the sound, but saw a bonfire in front of him at some point. Next to the bonfire was standing, and next to the bonfire, Royna, the king of sapphire and another woman in a black robe and a forehead guard, looked at the woman's leaking lower half of her face, and seemed to be very young.
The forehead protection covered the woman's eyes, but the woman seemed to still sense Soya and smiled slightly at Soya and Gregory: "You don't have to be nervous."
"You... are you the witch of Blue City?"
Gregory was a little nervous. It was not difficult to judge the identity of the witch, but the identities of the two women opposite him made him feel huge pressure. When the Sapphire King and the witch stood together, it could completely represent the will of the entire Sapphire Ring City.
"I am a witch, the chosen one, you are finally here."
The witch was still smiling, but Sawyer found that at some point he and Gregory had already stood in front of the witch and even felt the warmth emitted by the bonfire.
Warmth from the depths of the soul.
"Of course, there's you," the witch turned to Saoya again, and smiled and said something that made Saoya scared: "An unexpected existence, a traveler from another world."
"To be honest, when I heard this, I was not as surprised as I thought."
Sawyer smiled bitterly. Although the witch could not see anything, she had insight into everything and had no meaning to hide. He simply stopped restraining his own strength. The long-suppressed power even brought Sawyer as the center, causing a miniature storm.
Gregory and Royna were both startled by the power that Sawyer suddenly showed, but the witch still looked smiling, as if she had seen this result.
"Soya, you..."
Gregory opened his mouth. He had a lot of questions, but when it was time to speak, he didn't know what to say.
"Let the witch explain it. I think she should be able to explain it all."
Sawyer patted Gregory on the shoulder again, but when he said the last sentence, his eyes looked in the direction of the witch.
"Yes," the witch was still smiling, "You're the one who was chosen, do you want to know all this?"
"Gregory."
Gregory suddenly spoke, and he looked at the witch seriously and repeated again: "Gregory, my name is Gregory, and I am just Gregory, not someone you chose."
"Yes, you are Gregory, but you are also selected," the witch shook her head gently: "And it's not me who chose you, but the whole world."
