He walked forward a little more.
Suddenly, a figure appeared on the side of the narrow path ahead of them.
Under the cover of the fog, it was like a stooped wooden stake standing upright.
When Angor got closer, he finally saw Glepnir standing on the side of the path.
She was still wearing her astrologer outfit — a cloak, a walking stick, and a hunched back. She was quietly looking at the crystallized forest.
When Angor and Laplace came closer, she finally looked at them.
"You took too long." Glepnir's tone was calm, and her expression did not change. However, Angor could sense a hint of resentment in her voice.
"I teleported to the factory half an hour ago to wait for you. But you never showed up. Naboli told me you might be lost and asked me to find you … "
However, as Laplace's body, Glepnir's mind was constantly synchronized with Laplace's. She knew that Laplace and Angor were not lost at all.
She was just taking a stroll, so they did not reach the factory.
She did not want to explain to Naboli that she was a body of someone else.
In the end, for the sake of peace, Glepnir left the factory and waited for Angor and Laplace on the path.
This wait lasted for more than ten minutes.
Finally, she saw Angor, who looked like he was taking a stroll in his garden.
Glepnir, who had been busy for the past few days, naturally felt a little annoyed when she saw Angor walking so leisurely.
Angor scratched his head and looked at Glepnir, feeling a little embarrassed.
He had been observing the crystallized trees along the way. He also used his spirit feelers to check the trees from time to time. Also, they had to rely on Road 11 to get here.
Angor was about to explain and apologize, but he was interrupted.
But before he could, Laplace spoke up first. "You can't be so tense all the time. You should relax a little. Only by having both tension and relaxation can we work more efficiently. "
Glepnir was surprised. "Are you …" Helping Angor?
Laplace shook his head. "I'm not just talking about him. I'm talking about you too."
"Don't you feel that you're much more relaxed than before during the ten minutes you've been waiting for us?"
During this period of time, Glepnir was completely in charge of the external affairs of the Dream Mirror. Be it mediating between the various races, contacting them, distributing the logins, holding meetings with the various races, or even opening an embryo factory … Glepnir was in charge of everything.
She was actually quite tense.
Although Gleipnir never said it, Laplace could feel her inner uneasiness from every time they synchronized their minds.
Therefore, Laplace had purposely called Gleipnir into the Embryo Factory half an hour earlier.
He just hoped that she would relax a little. She was already stretched to the limit. Even if she continued to work at a high speed, she might not be able to increase her work efficiency.
Laplace knew she was in a hurry, but hoped it would not be so.
Gleipnir looked at Laplace and moved his lips, but said nothing.
No wonder Laplace kept telling her not to rush when she synchronized with him. He also told her not to come and find them. She just needed to wait.
Taking a deep breath, Gleipnir stabilized his sour mood and said indifferently, "I understand what you mean. Although standing here and looking at the scenery does make me relax a little, but …"
"When I think about how I've wasted more than ten minutes here, my anxiety rises again."
"Enough chit-chat." Gleipnir turned around. "I'll take you to the Embryo Factory first and introduce you to Napoli. I have other business to attend to. "
Gleipnir tapped the ground with his walking stick, and starlight appeared under his feet.
Then, Gleipnir took a step, and the starlight brought her dozens of meters away. She instantly disappeared from sight.
"Hurry up!" Gleipnir's voice came from the mist.
Angor looked down and saw faint starlight appearing under his and Laplace's feet. Clearly, Gleipnir did not forget to buff them with movement buffs.
"Looks like we won't be able to walk to the Embryo Factory."
Speaking of which, Gleipnir looked a little strange when he saw her in the Silver Forest Dimension. But now, she seemed much more relaxed.
The way she turned around and walked away was completely inconsistent with her old and doddering image.
He shook his head and exchanged a look with Laplace. Without saying anything, he stepped forward.
Using the Nebula Flicker, they moved forward.
It only took them one minute to cover dozens of kilometers. When they stopped, they had reached the end of the forest.
They were standing on a high cliff.
Behind them was a forest of crystallized trees. In front of them was a cliff that was dozens of meters high, and below them was a plain.
The mist was still there, but they could vaguely see the traces of buildings on the plain. If Angor wasn't mistaken, these buildings were the Embryo Factory.
At the end of the cluster of buildings, there was a large, round building that didn't match the others at all.
Looking down from the cliff, the other buildings were only as small as black dots. Compared to the other sesame-sized buildings, this one was like a "planet".
Even from where Angor and the others were standing, they were looking up at it instead of looking down.
It was enough to show how big this building was.
Angor even felt like he was looking at a crystal castle. It was a wonder that was specially built.
"That's …" Angor gulped and pointed at the giant shadow in the mist. "What's that?"
Gleipnir spoke in a plain tone, "That's the Embryo Factory. Let's go. I'll take you to Tranquil Town first. That's where the materials are collected and transported. "
With that, Gleipnir jumped off the cliff.
Starlight formed a pair of wings and carried her all the way to the buildings on the plain in the distance.
Angor and Laplace followed. Under the guidance of the starlight, they landed in a small town.
This was a town full of crystal shell houses.
The style and materials of the buildings were not too strange. Angor saw many similar buildings in the Ring Fortress.
Without a doubt, this town was built by the Crystaleye Race.
Compared to the buildings, the streets attracted Angor's attention the most.
This was because there were huge doors everywhere on the streets. At a glance, there were over a thousand doors on the main road alone.
These doors stood in the air without any support. However, when they were opened, a large number of Crystaleye Race people would walk out. Some were carrying heavy boxes, some were pushing boxes full of minerals, and some were sitting on monsters. The monsters behind them were all carrying large and small bags of materials.
Without a doubt, these thousands of doors were not ordinary doors. Each of them was connected to a different space!
"The door is connected to the Crystaleye Race's material warehouse. The people outside will transport materials there, while the people in Tranquil Town will take them out."
Gleipnir explained briefly and looked at Angor.
Behind her was a dense crowd of people and carriages. In the distance, there was a huge round shadow that looked like a star in the sky. The floor of the town was inlaid with natural glowing minerals, which cast a thin layer of golden light on her figure.
Gleipnir was no longer as tired as when they first met. Instead, she looked hale and hearty.
Her eyes looked as if stars were shining in them.
"I almost forgot. Welcome to … Tranquil Town."
The streetlights on the street also hissed as if they were responding to Gleipnir's words.
…
After the welcome.
Gleipnir did not say anything. Instead, she turned around and walked into Tranquil Town.
Angor and Laplace followed behind her. Angor also looked around as they walked.
He found many strange things in Tranquil Town. Apart from the standing doors, there were also many other things on the streets that Angor had never seen before.
For example, there were many floating ditches on the street. These ditches were made of crystals and connected to a giant sphere in the distance.
They looked like ribbons that extended from the sphere.
Some of the ditches were wide, while others were narrow. They were densely distributed all over the street. There was one floating ditch right next to Angor's waist, which extended all the way to the end of the main road.
Since the ditch was close enough for Angor to look down, he could see it clearly.
There were many unknown liquids flowing in the ditch. These liquids emitted a special cold fragrance like water from a snowy mountain.
Angor even felt a slight chill as he walked beside the ditch.
"Is this some kind of liquid material? Like Cypress Coldwater, which is specially sent to the embryo factory? "Angor wondered if he should use his spirit feelers to sense the liquid.
However, before he could sense it, he saw a group of green-skinned Lu Xiu walking out of a door not far away. They were all carrying large and small bags of materials. They were calling for their mothers and looked exhausted.
When they left the door and saw the ditch nearby, their eyes lit up.
He yelled and called the other Peluxiu to the side of the ditch. Then, he opened the smaller material pouch and poured out a large amount of crystal fragments.
They were all broken crystals, which fit perfectly into the ditch.
These crushed ores were carried away by the flowing liquid in the ditch, rushing towards the embryo factory in the distance.
Piruxiu took out a slightly larger bag and went to a wider ditch. He threw the large intact crystal ore into the ditch and continued to let the liquid wash it away.
When they were done, the Peluxiu returned to the door and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Angor suddenly realized something.
So these ditches were used to transport materials quickly.
Like the "Winding Water Goblet" or "Flowing Water Noodle" recorded in the hologram tablet?
That was convenient. No wonder there were so many ditches in different sizes. They were used to store materials of different sizes.
"It's not just for transportation. The liquid inside is also a material," Glepnir explained when he noticed Angor's gaze.
"Cooling liquid?"
Glepnir nodded. "As expected of an alchemist. You guessed it right away."
"Why do I feel like you don't mean it?"
Glepnir didn't answer. He only pointed at a ditch not far away. "There's still a few kilometers to the embryo factory. Starlight will attract too much attention. Let's go through the ditch."
Angor: "???"
Glepnir led Angor and Laplace to a ditch that was as wide as a small river. "Ditches are for transportation. Transporting goods is transportation. Transporting people is also transportation."
As Glepnir spoke, a giant pack beast in the distance tossed two large wooden boxes into the ditch. The ten-meter-long boxes floated on the water's surface and floated down.
Glepnir's eyes lit up when he saw the two boxes. He quickly jumped onto one of them. He then asked Angor to follow him.
Angor really wanted to say, "Starlight is too eye-catching? So this is not eye-catching? How about you take the box and I'll walk on my own? "
Angor wanted to refuse, but Glepnir stuck his crutch into the water and stopped the box from moving forward. If Angor didn't go up, the other boxes would be blocked as well.
The unloader on the pack beast also looked at Angor. He didn't say anything, but his eyes were urging Angor to get out of the way.
Angor sighed and decided to fly up anyway.
Glepnir put away his crutch and let the box slide down the ditch.
The rest of the journey was similar to drifting on water.
The only difference was that they were going faster. They also felt like they were floating in a "handstand loop", which made them feel like they were riding a roller coaster.
They couldn't enjoy such a thing when they were floating on a river outside.
They floated in the ditch for several minutes. Finally, as the trench began to rise and enter the waterway, they were getting closer and closer to the Tool Embryo Factory.
From afar, the Embryo Factory looked like a huge planet shrouded in fog.
Now that he looked closer, he realized that the factory was even bigger than he thought.
They were still a thousand meters away, but Angor could no longer see the edge of the factory. He could only see the shadows in the mist.
The pressure was intense.
When they were about a hundred meters away, Angor finally saw the outer shell of the factory.
It seemed to be made of a crystal shell, which looked like frosted glass.
He could faintly see the light inside, but it was still a bit blurry.
About ten meters away from the factory, Angor saw the entrance to the ditch. It was a circular tunnel, which looked like a winding slide.
Following some splashing sounds, Angor and the others entered the factory and fell into the slide.
The boxes made clanking sounds as they bumped into the pipe.
Angor also felt dizzy for a moment.
Thankfully, Gleipnir had released a Starlight Barrier in advance before they entered the tunnel, enveloping them. Otherwise, they would definitely be drenched in water from the spiraling downwards.
Several seconds later, they entered the smooth water channel and slid out of the sealed pipe.
Bright light shone into Angor's eyes.
Angor slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was a lake of cooling liquid filled with boxes. Then, he saw a human figure flashing through the air and flying towards them ….
