976 Scarlet Snow Sect 2 (1/2)
The battles of each of the three main prodigies ended quickly. The examiner then took Garen and the other young man and flew towards the outside of the main arena.
”Guru, you only managed to bring two people today, huh?” A bald man with a white beard who was fully dressed in white flew over from the faraway sky. Three youths followed behind him. There were two girls and a boy.
”I could say the same about you. Your gains weren't much bigger,” said the examiner helplessly while shaking his head.
”We only get our turn after the main sects are done with their selections. This is something we can't help,” nodded the bald old man while stroking the bushy white beard that covered his entire face. ”Alright, I'll send these people off first. Let's go drinking at the same old place later.”
”Mmhmm, okay,” the examiner agreed. He took Garen and the other young man away before walking past the bald old man.
Garen flew off with him while being wrapped in the Energy Field. He gazed downwards while they traveled past Star Core Plaza below them quickly. Stretches of areas filled with light yellow buildings were left behind instantly.
He passed by the inn that he was staying at yesterday quickly as well as the monumental forest of famous people.
Whoosh!
A light green aircraft shuttled past the three people. It created strong winds that caused ripples to surge through the examiner's invisible Energy Field.
The examiner was unbothered and continued flying forward. High-speed aircraft would occasionally fly past him quickly.
Soon, the long stretches of houses and buildings below them became more spaced out and dilapidated. The aircraft that were flying past them at low altitudes decreased significantly as well.
A soft crashing noise that sounded like a moving water source echoed from below.
Garen looked downwards. They had currently arrived at the top of a continuous stretch of yellow rolling mountains. Down below, a gigantic white waterfall was slowly flowing behind it.
”This is the Guana Great Falls which is one of the most famous scenic spots in Planet Naga. There are many types of creatures living inside these waters. Energy Machinists from different places who want to research natural genetic banks come here to retrieve samples. Both of you can come here next time too,” explained the examiner softly.
He pointed at the edges of the waterfall. Many tourists were currently taking pictures there. There were even a few suspended aircraft that were hanging in mid-air above the waters of the waterfall. They were trying to salvage something unknown from the there.
After passing by the waterfall, the trio entered a gigantic yellowish brown ring. It was actually a ring-shaped building that was made up of layers of circles that were stacked on top of each other. When looking down at it from above, it resembled a pile of rings of various sizes that were placed together.
A white beam of light was shooting out of the center of the ring in an eye-catching manner. It was abnormally thick and faint buzzing vibrating noises were faintly echoing from it.
”We're here,” the examiner flew downwards and rushed into the gigantic light beam in the middle. His speed continuously increased as he kept going.
”Pay attention to your balance! This is a public teleportation light beam. Accelerate and go towards the transfer zone on your own!” He threw out the last sentence quickly as his current speed had reached an extremely fast degree.
Garen could only feel that light beam approaching him at full speed. It was getting bigger and thicker before his entire field of vision was filled with white light instantly.
Hum!!
That buzzing noise flooded his ears and made it completely impossible for him to hear any other noises. There were no sensations throughout his body either, as if he had immediately fallen into a world that had nothing but white light.
About a few seconds later, his vision brightened suddenly before a vast wild forest that was filled with vibrant and dark green shades appeared.
The earth was slightly black while the surrounding plants were lush and green. The herds of deer below them scattered and ran off in all directions because they were frightened.
In the faraway sky, a thick clump of purely white clouds were shaped like a funnel. The lowest point of the funnel that was also the sharp end at the bottom happened to be connected to the top of a white tower in the forest below.
The tower was slender and serene like a thin inclined pyramid. Black aircraft that were the size of flies revolved around it. From afar, these aircraft that were moving extremely slowly emphasized the hugeness and magnificence of the tower.
”This is the Fermium Cloud Tower. It was Scarlet Snow Sect's most dazzling and illustrious symbol previously. However, once the sect dwindled, it lost its Cloud Circulatory System. Hence, fewer people were willing to come to come here after that,” the examiner Guru sighed.
”It's truly magnificent…” the other young man praised sincerely.
Garen praised it as well and nodded. Although he did not know the function of the Cloud Circulatory System, it was obvious that it was an extremely important installation.
”Is the Scarlet Snow Sect inside this place?”
The examiner glanced at him and nodded impatiently.
”Just wait a little longer, we're almost there.”
The trio floated mid-air silently. The white light beam that teleported them here was only capable of performing one-way teleportation. Hence, there were no traces of the white light beam on the place where the trip had appeared. It was clear that they would need to use other means to go back from here.
Within less than five minutes, a white streamlined Flying Ship approached them from afar. It shot out towards the front of the trio before halting quickly.
”Alright, this is the designated public transport Flying Ship. You can get on now,” said the examiner while patting Garen's shoulder.
