Chapter 396

Hoffa's frustration did not last for a few seconds. Soon, there was a big fog in front of the train. The train rumbled into the fog and could not see clearly on both sides of the window.

Olivia and Dumbledore, with Miranda, who left earlier, come to Hoffa in a hurry. They look out of the window anxiously at the fog.

The fog comes suddenly, and the visibility is very low. If you put your hand into the fog, you can't see the palm of your hand. It's as if it's not fog outside, but white gaseous milk.

Then, as if breaking through an invisible barrier, through the fog, the train entered a new but dreamy country.

There are many strange buildings on the ground, some of which are like pieces of super mushrooms, some of which are like erect shells, and some of which are like staff arranged in the sky, on which stand small houses.

They're colorful, they don't have much sense of form, but they look really interesting, at least for Hoffa.

The train in which Hoffa is located also runs fast on one of the tracks in the staff, passing through the high sky.

They are thousands of meters above the ground. It is estimated that only a guy like sylby can figure out how to build a rail at such a high place.

Not only do they have one train, in fact, there are many people in this real and imaginary place. Not far away from them, there are a group of young people riding on broomsticks like meteors. They also saw a group of children sitting together on a large flying carpet, gliding through the air.

There are not only broomsticks and carpets, but also other kinds of strange vehicles. Their shapes are as strange and unique as those on the ground.

The four people on the train looked at the city under the sky, and their mouths couldn't close.

Because Hoffa has the memory of his past life, he can see the particularity of this dream kingdom, that is, it has a strong sense of the future.

For example, the magic carpet dancing in the sky, and the broom. How similar to the cars on the future overpass. That forest of floating magic tall buildings, and the Muggle world of skyscrapers have a fight. There are magic lighting, magic food, magic shops everywhere.

He was able to understand the magical future.

But this picture is unimaginable for Dumbledore and osivia, and it's the same for Miranda. Born in a conservative and ancient wizard family, they have always strictly followed the principle of wizard confidentiality, and they are very clear from Muggles. Witches are witches, Muggles are Muggles. They hide under the world and never make public.

But the whole city is full of witches, dressed in strange clothes, three-year-old children flying carpet, all kinds of strange animals running around.

If such a thing happens in the real world, it can only be convicted of abusing magic.

Dumbledore, who was always tolerant, could not help clenching his fist after seeing the city and said: "magic is not used in this way."

Osivia sighed: "although this is a dream, it can also be the fantasy of a half man king, his Utopia."

"Reality will not allow him to do so." Miranda calmly and soberly commented: "everything we see now is the result of compromise. The number of Muggles is tens of thousands of times that of witches. We must consider the opinions of Muggles. We can't be so presumptuous."

"Are they real people?"

Hoffa asked, pointing to the people who were flying by on broomsticks. He thought that all the people he saw in the city should be real people. Because he can hear their voice through the flow mantra, which is totally different from the voice of the outside world. It's the voice of happiness, freedom, even some wild voice.

No one answered Hoffa's question. They were not sure whether it was a dream or a reality. But Hoffa had a way to measure the answer. He hooked his finger and slowed down the time by twice.

Suddenly, the train slowed down.

He was secretly frightened that the law of time could still be used. This shows that he is not in a dream, but in reality there really exists this dreamland.

He withdrew the power of time and the train returned to normal operation.

At this time, Miranda suddenly reached out and said, "look!"

As they walked along her fingers, they saw a towering tower in the center of the city after the fog had completely cleared away.

What a tall tower that is!

Its whole body is gray, and its twisted spiral extends upward, even if it is tens of thousands of meters high. You can't see the top at all.

Hoffa has never seen such a high building. It is like the Babel Tower in the Bible, or the magic pea growing up to the cloud kingdom in Jack and the pea in Green's fairy tale.

"Is this the world you want? Sylby... "

looking at the towering tower, Hoffa murmured.

As if to answer his inner question.

A fire appeared in front of the four people on the train and scared them back. But the fire was not dangerous or spread.It burns quietly, in which a thin face appears gradually, which Hoffa has seen before. It is the body of delphina and the carrier of sylby's soul. She is no longer as graceful and graceful as she was two years ago. After being cursed for a year, she is just a skeleton, only her eyes and spirits.

"Welcome to my country, Pandora." The face in the fire said, "what do you think of this place?"

"It's crazy." Dumbledore said, "you can't make the real world like this."

Osivia said, "it's impossible, half king. Give up. After all, dreams are not reality. No matter how beautiful they are, they will come back to reality one day. "

Miranda said: "estrangement will eventually lead to war. Muggles and witches must have one to hide. Although freedom is good, we have to be able to enjoy it. We appreciate your kindness, but please let it go. "

"You all have a point."

Sylby nodded noncommittally, his flaming face turning to Hoffa: "are you ready?"

Hoffa said lightly: "I don't understand what you're talking about, but if it's just to beat you, then I'm really ready."

"Very good." Sylby praised him. His thin head moved in the fire and looked at the four people: "although I welcome you to come to see me, I can't today. I only see one person today."

He said slowly, "I'm at the top of that towering tower. Any one of you who can finally climb to the top can cut off my head, or be cut off by me."

"Arrogant guy." Dumbledore moved his neck and drew out his wand. The light in his blue eyes was very sharp. Hoffa knew that the headmaster was going to be serious.

"Shh." Sitting in a wheelchair, Silby put his thin fingers to his lips and said with a smile, "those who have not climbed to the top will not be lonely here. I've got opponents for each of you - now, let's start the game. "

Sylby's voice just dropped, and there was a big bang.

The flame that his face was in exploded, and the train and the track under the train exploded without warning.

The whole train was caught off guard by a huge explosion, which directly blasted into the sky and bent into more than 90 degrees.

Hoffa, who has always been vigilant, directly slowed down the flow of time 10000 times without hesitation.

The burst flames and flying debris all slowed down. The train came to a standstill, and the burst fire stopped in the air.

In the static time, Hoffa, like an astronaut walking in space, gently pushed away the flying debris in the air. He swam to Miranda. In almost static time, Hoffa could see that at the moment of the explosion, Miranda's face was not frightened, but worried. She looked sideways at the position where Hoffa was standing, but her head was still Without turning around, time was slowed down.

"Silly girl..." Hoffa took a piece of broken glass next to Miranda's face, held her by the waist and lifted her up like a plastic model in a shop.

Then from the window of the explosion, climbed out of the cracked train carriage.

Within a radius of 300 meters, time has been quiet, but in the city 300 meters away, they are still doing what they should do. This is the influence scope of Hoffa's time force, and out of this scope, it is not his responsibility.

Hoffa put Miranda out of the blast, then floated back into the cracked train compartment, lifting Dumbledore and osivia out in turn.

Tick!

Less than a second later, time returned to normal flow.

Boom!!

As the explosion continued, the train was blown to pieces. The five line rail was blown high and curved, and the middle was directly broken. Unfortunately, a few drag racing parties riding broomsticks on one side fell to the ground in the gale of the explosion.

"Huo..." Miranda turns her head fiercely, only to find that she is no longer in the car. She stops shouting and purses her lips.

Dumbledore and osivia also fell to the ground, holding a magic wand to make a defensive gesture. But soon they found themselves standing on the safe ground, confused.

As time goes by so slowly, Hoffa is just a flash shadow in their eyes, too fast to catch.

"Let's go." Finally, he took a look at the shabby train that had been blown up. Hoffa said faintly.

The three looked at him in surprise. Even though they didn't know how Hoffa did it, they knew that he must have taken them out of the car at the moment of the explosion.

In fact, without him, the explosion would not have caused much damage to their three top wizards, but it would have been possible to make them feel a little embarrassed.

However, Silby's little trick didn't work, which boosted their morale.

They follow the track and walk firmly towards the tower in the middle of the city. Along the way, they did not encounter any threats or obstacles, a few hours later, they came to the bottom of the sky tower.From a distance, the tower looks like a vine, but when you come near it, you can see that it is nearly as thick as a basketball court, with only one entrance, which is dark.

There is a breeze blowing out from the black hole, which is deep and frightening. In principle, the atmosphere should be solemn, with the tragedy before going to the battlefield.

But the tragedy was broken by a pleasant bell.

Jingle, jingle, jingle ~

someone pushed a small cart around the back of the tower with several bells hanging on it.

Pushing the cart was an old woman with bent back, white hair and wrinkled face. But through her sharp nose bone and her slender finger bone, we can see that she was also a wonderful beauty when she was young.

So the old woman stooped and pushed a cart in front of them. On the top of the cart were some oranges, candy, dried meat and other ordinary food. On the lower level, there are some very common wooden signs carved in rune.

"do you want to buy some amulets or food?"

The old woman picked up an orange and asked, "oranges are very sweet."

Looking at the old woman, they all felt that the picture was inexpressible. Hoffa thought, shouldn't there be a vow meeting or something like that to make up a solemn and stirring atmosphere, why would someone come to sell them oranges?

Seeing that the four were silent, the old woman sighed and put the orange back into the cart.

"In the past two years, many people have come in here and want to go to the top of the tower, but they have gone in and never come out again. I think, maybe when you can't get out, you will regret that you didn't have a full meal before you went in... "She said.

"Do you know the owner of this tower?" Hoffa asked.

"Ah, you say the owner of the tower. The old woman straightened up with pride and said happily," of course I know him. He's my husband. "

"Your husband?"

If Hoffa is struck by lightning, it's damned that people like sylby can have wives. Dumbledore, osivia, and Miranda are also living. They probably know the age of the half man king. He is more than 1000 years old. Even if he has a wife, he will die long ago.

Speaking of this, the old woman immediately became interested. She leaned on the cart and said with great interest, "to tell you the truth, I was the first one to give him sex."

The old lady said with a mysterious smile: "when I was very young, I was assigned by his father Ramiro I as his personal care. But when he was young, he didn't want to be a king. He liked to run around. At that time, I had a headache for controlling him.

But some men, who can't manage, can only follow him. Later I learned that it was just too late. He left me and went to the unknown place.

I thought I would never see him again. But, interestingly, in the end, I heard that although he was not our king, he was the king of the wizard. When I heard that, I came back to serve him

After a pause, the old woman said with some sadness: "although he almost never met me, I believe he still loves me deeply."

Listening to the old woman's strange remarks, Hoffa couldn't help asking, "how long have you been here?"

The old woman with snow-white hair looked up and thought, "how long... It seems that I haven't calculated it. I only know how to live every day. Every day is almost the same, so I don't care about the time."

"Won't you die?" Hoffa asked in shock. Miranda stepped on him secretly.

"He didn't die, how could I die!"

The old woman said fiercely, her expression was ferocious and frightening. She suddenly got excited: "I've been with him since I was three years old, and I've given everything to him since I was sixteen. No one in the world loves him more than me. If he doesn't give me a place, I'll never die! Hum

The old woman said, still a little proud, she pushed the cart again, "Hey, I said, do you want to buy some food or amulet. If you don't buy it, I'll go. "

"Forget it, thank you. We don't need it." Hoffa said with a lingering fear. Dumbledore and osivia also shook their heads and refused to buy the old woman's goods.

Only Miranda stepped forward and calmly took out a silver coin from her pocket. "Sell me one."

After that, she took an orange from the cart and shook it. "You must have made a profit by buying an orange with a silver coin."

"When you taste it, you'll know who made it." The old woman said with a smile, pushing the cart around the tower, jingling disappeared.
