It didn't take long for Fangzheng to catch sight of the missile that was rising rapidly in the atmosphere. No, wait, it was the Mage Tower.
But if Fangzheng had to admit it, this cylindrical object with a pointed top and a white body looked like an intercontinental missile no matter how he looked at it.
The bottom of the "missile" was ejecting flames that were not inferior to a real rocket launch, and it rose rapidly into the sky.
1,000 meters, 5,000 meters, 10,000 meters ….
Soon, Fangzheng saw the flames at the bottom of the "missile" in front of him quickly extinguish, and the "missile" that had lost its propulsion force was about to fall. But at that moment ….
Boom!!
With a flash of light in the sky and another loud roar, Fangzheng saw a layer at the bottom of the "missile" suddenly burst. A series of flames sprayed out, and the "missile" that had already lost its balance continued to fly upwards.
20,000 meters … 30,000 meters ….
The "missile" continued to fly upwards. During this period, it was connected and extinguished several times, but each time, it successfully ignited and continued to climb upwards. However, the situation was not as good as it seemed.
"It's already deviating from its position. I think it's over."
Fangzheng shook his head as he looked at the scene in front of him. Although every time the "missile" was about to extinguish, the Evocation Master would activate the flame ejector hidden at the bottom layer, its launch angle would inevitably change. The "missile" was no longer flying straight into the sky, but was flying diagonally to the other side. If it continued like this, it would eventually draw a big arc in the air and fall to the ground.
So, did the Evocation Master have any good ideas to solve this problem? After all, this was only the simplest rocket, and the propulsion device was only installed at the bottom of the "missile". There was no way to adjust the direction at all. So … .how was the wizard going to solve this problem?
However, before Fangzheng could finish his words, a scene that left him speechless appeared.
Next to the soaring "missile", a huge golden palm condensed from magic suddenly appeared out of thin air. Fangzheng saw the palm grab the "missile" and help it adjust its direction ….
Fangzheng was speechless.
Why the hell am I talking about science in a magical world?
This was the scariest thing about mages. You could use all kinds of data to prove that what they were doing was absolutely wrong, but mages could still get the right result from their magical magic ….
That was why mages always liked to court death, and they never got tired of it.
However...
Fangzheng furrowed his brows as he looked at the Magus Tower that had already charged out of the atmosphere.
Some things were still reasonable.
At the same time, the chief evocation student was standing on the balcony of the Magus Tower, stroking his beard as he looked at the scenery outside with a smug expression. Of course, he wasn't wearing a spacesuit. He didn't even have an oxygen mask on, and there wasn't even a glass window on his balcony. A thin layer of shield completely isolated his precious little mage tower from the outside world. Even if the shield broke, the old wizard was not worried. The spells he cast were enough to protect his survival in any environment.
"I didn't expect that we're actually living on a ball …."
The chief evocation student muttered to himself as he looked at the blue planet under his feet. He clenched his fists and stared at the land under his feet. Just a moment ago, the land was still vast and boundless in his eyes. But now, the chief evocation student had discovered that this land was only a part of the planet.
Even this ball was only a drop in the ocean.
What was out there?
The chief evocation student, who had lived for nearly a hundred years, suddenly felt an uncontrollable curiosity.
If their world was only this big, then what was outside their world? Were there other balls next to their home? Were there other lives like them on the other worlds?
For a moment, the chief evocation student even wanted to drive the Magus Tower to continue exploring the outside world, but unfortunately, the magic crystals in the Explosive Magic Array he used at the bottom of the Magus Tower had all been used up. More importantly …. the chief evocation student could feel his Magus Tower slowly falling!
Did I fail? What's going on?
The chief evocation student could not help but frown when he sensed his Magus Tower starting to fall. He originally thought that if the stars could float in the sky, then his Magus Tower could also float in the sky. The chief evocation student even thought of finding the brightest star to put his Magus Tower there after he flew up.
But now … there was nothing here!
What should he do? Why could the stars float in the sky, but not his Magus Tower? Was it because the distance was not far enough? Speaking of which, the chief evocation student did not see any stars nearby, which meant that the stars must be further away. And the chief evocation student … was obviously not far enough.
If Fangzheng was here, he could explain to the chief evocation student that the Magus Tower had failed to enter orbit!
After all, it was very difficult to send an object into low-Earth orbit. It required a lot of careful calculations and angular design. Although the chief evocation student had managed to solve a series of problems during the previous launch, when faced with something that relied purely on calculation and luck, recklessness alone was obviously not enough.
The Magus Tower had not entered low-Earth orbit. It was only a matter of time before it fell. The chief evocation student had only one choice, and that was to immediately activate the teleportation portal to leave the Magus Tower that was about to fall and return to his home. But …. looking at the blue planet not far away, the chief evocation student felt a little regretful.
If he could find a place to fix this Magus Tower, he could study new magic and explore new worlds here in the future. Although the chief evocation student was prepared for failure when he built this Magus Tower, it would still take a lot of time to build a better Magus Tower. Time … was already a problem for the chief evocation student.
"— — — —"
However, just as the chief evocation faculty was hesitating, he suddenly felt that the light above him had been blocked by something. A huge, pitch-black shadow slowly appeared and shrouded the small Mage Tower.
What's that? Are there other monsters hiding in the starry sky?
The chief evocation student's expression changed slightly when he saw the shadow. He hurriedly raised his head and looked up.
The old mage could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.
A huge metal warship was hovering above his Mage Tower. The cargo bay below it slowly opened, and soon after, the old Mage saw a strange energy beam shoot out from it and hit his Mage Tower. However, this did not activate the defensive array of the Magus Tower. On the contrary, the strange energy beam seemed to have some kind of attractive force. It "grabbed" the Magus Tower tightly, adjusted its position, and quickly retracted.
At that moment, the chief evocation student noticed that his Magus Tower was no longer falling. It was now floating steadily in the air and had no intention of falling anymore.
After doing this, the metal warship slowly turned around and flew into the distance. The old mage looked at the retreating shadow of the metal warship and smiled.
"I should have known …. Tendo Temple, Tendo Temple …. You're in the sky, aren't you?"
