Chapter 791 - Emergence of the Floating City (1/2)

Roland left Ma Huajun’s world and returned to the base.

Although he was the Planet Guardian, Ma Huajun couldn’t be too self-willed in everything

Even though he could make decisions, he had to talk to and inform the relevant departments, or everybody in the bureaucratic system would be scared witless by the enormous floating city.

After returning to the base, Roland tried to enter the game, but the virtual cabin kept telling him that his connection failed.

He knew that his energy image in the game had been completely swallowed by him.

Should he create another one?

Roland made an attempt. However, his new character exploded the moment he entered the game.

Then, “System Error,” “Enormous Energy Detected,” and other warnings popped up.

Having no choice, Roland had to quit the game.

At noon the next day, Ma Huajun called him and told him that a no-fly zone a hundred kilometers to the northwest of his base had been approved.

That place was a desert.

Roland wasted no time devoting himself to the construction of the floating city.

In the enormous underground hollow, Roland put the two giant green energy crystals next to each other.

He chose to absorb the smaller one first.

When he filled himself with magic power, the energy crystal only lost one-thirtieth of its total mass.

The efficiency of transformation was astoundingly high.

He estimated that the special energy all over Earth was stored in Ma Huajun’s special mine of crystals.

Because he had enough energy and momentum, Roland simply started making his systems.

One magic power brick was crafted and put away after another.

It took Roland about a month to finally create the Magic Grid Core.

It was even more powerful than his first core in the game.

However, the floating city in the game was reinforced with divine energy later and had significantly more magic power, which was much more awesome.

There was no way that Roland could find divine energy in reality.

He estimated that he could probably jump to the other world after using half of the energy crystal. But for safety reasons, he used the entire energy crystal. The Magic Grid Core was so huge that it could hardly bear its own eight.

Then, Roland finally stopped.

After that, he opened the stone layer above the gigantic hollow.

The Magic Grid Core soared to the sky first. Then, the mud was attracted to it by one magic piece after another.

The Magic Grid Core didn’t seem very big, but considering the theory that energy equals matter, the core itself contained a shocking amount of energy even without the stone shell on the surface.

The thick shell was mainly meant to protect the fragile core.

The magic barrier wasn’t invulnerable. If one was determined to look for a loophole, there was always energy that could penetrate it.

It was safe to say that the Magic Grid Core was the heart of the floating city, and that one combustion-powered bullet could destroy it with a precise hit.

So, the thick layer of rocks was the second safety measure.

This dumb safety measure was unsophisticated but surprisingly useful.

When the magic barrier malfunctioned or was destroyed, it could provide thorough protection for the Magic Grid Core.

The floating city was getting bigger and bigger.

The mud was attached gradually and then turned into hard rock.

The comrades in the aerial base had already measured that the rocks Roland made with his spell were harder than the finest steel.

Therefore, the core of the floating city was actually protected by a ten-kilometer-thick super steel plate.

What worried Roland earlier happened in the end.

The “expansion” of the floating city required at least half a day.

During the process, the enormous floating city could be seen clearly even from dozens of kilometers away.

As it gradually rose to the sky, more and more people saw the horrifying scene.

There was a city several hundred kilometers away from the floating city. Almost a million locals witnessed the dreadful monster rise.

They all took pictures and shot videos and posted them on social media.

A lot of videos and pictures about the floating city appeared on the Internet.

The authorities didn’t intend to keep it a secret either and simply let the netizens post. As a result, everybody on the Internet was excited in half an hour.

At this moment, World of Falan was still quite a hot topic.

It was safe to say that the celebrities in the game, such as Roland, Schuck, and O’Neal, were even more famous than big stars.

Therefore, people were well aware of Roland’s abilities.

The very first thing that most netizens thought of when they saw the behemoth in the sky was the same all around.

The floating city!

Then, the second word they all wanted to say was “Shoot!”

That was the reaction of even the most courteous man.

The forum of the game exploded too.

The thread about the floating city in reality gained more than twenty million replies in an hour.

“Is it fake? It is well known that photos can be PS-ed, so it must be fake.”

“Fake? The latest news is that some people have flown drones there and saw the floating city, but when they tried to swoop down at the city, the drones hit something transparent and crashed.” “A magic barrier?” “Damn… Who activated a floating city in reality?” “Who else could it be but Roland?” “I can testify that Roland has been offline for a month. His friends and his woman are all searching for him, so it’s probably Roland.”

“Does it mean that magic can be brought to reality? But how?”

“Then can the Warrior’s abilities be brought to reality too?”

“Of course. I’m a Warrior, and I can already beat ten people at the same time in reality. But the problem is that I’m still an ordinary person who’s quite experienced in fighting. I don’t have any special abilities at all.”

“Why can the Mages take their powers to reality, whereas the Warriors cannot bring their bodies here?”

“They’re carrying knowledge about how to use magic. Are you planning to carry the game data of the strength of your character in the game?”

“F*ck, no wonder the Warriors are so disrespected in the game world. As it turns out, we’re really clowns.”

“This world is going to change. All Mages will be cherished in reality.”

“Is there still time if I delete my level-15 Warrior character and restart as a Mage?”
