Chapter 288

It used to be just a moment to pass through the portal.

However, this time, Ren found that the teleportation process lasted more than ten seconds, as if walking through a long passage.

Because of the super affinity for the void brought by the "Key of the Door", he can see that the surrounding space has been distorted to the extreme, and the huge and vast space-time energy has built a temporary safe route, like a bridge. Two distant worlds are connected.

His gaze pierces the void, and beyond the "bridge" is the astral world.

This is an endless silver ocean, but it's not sea water. There is no difference between the top and bottom, and the gray and white light bands are constantly churning like distant stars.

There is no concept of distance in the astral world, and the entire world flashes across the eyes like a dream.

Ren's eyes lit up, and the teleportation ended.

When he came back to his senses, he found himself standing in a wide square. Looking around, suddenly, a vast and magnificent palace complex came into view.

All palaces have one thing in common, that is tall!

I don't know what materials they are made of, like a mixture of rock and metal, stone pillars up to 100 meters high, propping up a huge temple like the sky, and there are giant towers higher than the temple, scattered in a row, row upon row, between each other There are long stone steps and exquisite corridors connecting the buildings, all of which are huge and magnificent, which is shocking.

These buildings are located on the top of the mountains, but they can't see the scene under the mountains. They are blocked by thick dark clouds, and they feel like they are suspended above the sky.

The square where Rennes was located was located on the edge of the palace. It was actually a platform, but because of its small size, it was thought to be a square at first glance.

There is no sun in the sky, and there are no stars to be seen.

Looking into the distance, there are countless gusts of wind and dark clouds whistling in the sky, constantly tumbling, even with Ren's vision, there is no end in sight.

Almost every second, lightning flashed across the sky, flashing across the head, followed by deafening thunder. The mighty thunder sounded like the end of the world.

Ren felt that his skin was slightly numb, and his hairs were standing on end.

He glanced at the phone interface, and the weather showed that the surrounding temperature was very low, close to zero, and the energy distribution was even more abnormal. The proportion of wind elements reached 25, and the proportion of thunder elements soared to 34, which was seven or eight times higher than the normal density. If you cast two spells here, the power will skyrocket!

It is impossible for a normal material world or plane to have such a unique energy value.

There is only one place where this is the case, and that is the Plane of Storms.

This plane is between the wind element plane and the thunder element plane, and is the transition zone between the two elements. It is a relatively well-known one among the many inner planes.

The portal behind him closes.

Ren looked down, and there was a similarly arranged rune circle under his feet, and the light gradually faded. There are many similar magic circles on the platform, but they are not opened, so I don't know where they lead.

A deep voice sounded: "Huh? Bremet, why are you back?"

Ren turned his head and looked, and there was a tall figure standing beside the teleportation array.

The opponent was about five meters tall, and he had to look up to see the whole picture clearly. He looked like a male human being magnified several times. His body was as thick as a wall, and he was wearing a majestic metal armor.

This set of armor is composed of a helmet, half body armor, wrist guards, skirt armor and combat boots, revealing strong arms and legs. The well-defined muscles contain explosive power, and there is faint lightning flowing under the light blue skin. Resonates with the surrounding thunder elements.

Storm Giant!

Ren can't help but look carefully.

His figure is relatively tall among humans, but standing in front of the storm giant, he felt like a five or six-year-old child, about the same height as the opponent's calf.

The dwarf is even more tragic. He can only hit the giant's knee when he jumps up.

The strength of this storm giant has reached the legendary middle level, and he has obviously been an adult for a long time. Judging from his soul, his age is around three hundred years old, with a mature face and a short beard on his chin.

Sure enough, there is an element of thunder and lightning affinity in his soul.

In addition, there are many thunder and lightning spells, as well as more than a dozen physical elements, so that the storm giant has a strong physical strength. Apart from the ability to cast spells, he is also the most outstanding legendary warrior!

In his hand, he held a sharp spear taller than himself. The body of the spear was engraved with runes. It could be used for close combat as well as a staff for casting spells.

The storm giant's eyes were as bright as lightning, falling on Ren's body, implying a bit of vigilance.

With a snap, a tiny bolt of lightning burst from his spear.

"Human, who are you?" The storm giant asked sharply, "Bremet, how did you bring outsiders into the Temple of Storms?"

Bremitt quickly explained: "Lordar, he is Ren, Elder Sorim asked me to invite me to the Temple of Storms as a guest."

The storm giant's expression softened and he nodded.

"It turned out to be the elder's guest." He smiled and said in the unproficient imperial language: "Welcome to the Temple of Storms. I am Lodar, the guardian of the teleportation platform."

"Lord Lord." Ren responded neither humble nor overbearing.

He spoke the language of giants, and with the help of a translation dictionary, his intonation was very standard. Although he didn't have a lot of vocabulary, it was easy to use for simple communication.

Lordar was extremely surprised, and couldn't help observing Ren carefully, full of curiosity.

Bremitt said: "Lodar, we'll talk to you later, Ren and I will go to see Elder Sorim first, and we can't keep him waiting."

"Okay, you go." The storm giant watched the two go away.

Leave the teleportation platform and enter the palace complex.

Ren looked at the stone steps, which were more than half a meter high, and found it difficult. These steps were built for giants, and it was too inconvenient for humans to walk.

Bremet skillfully restored the Earth Bear to its huge size, then jumped on it, saying: "When there was no 'Big Horn', I hated walking around the Temple of Storms the most. It was simply torture."

Ren laughed, and then climbed onto the back of the Earth Bear.

While driving the pet to run, the dwarf said, "The Temple of the Storm is the supreme holy place of the Storm Giants. It once enshrined the God of Giants. During the Second Era, there were at most six temples in the Plane of Storms, but as far as I know , this should be the only preserved temple.”

Earth Bear walks through the complex.

Ren looked at the majestic palaces, courtyards, towers, and exquisite corridors and gardens all around, showing brilliant civilization and superb skills everywhere.

This god-like giant kingdom made him feel small, as if he was in a dream.

Not far from the platform, Ren saw other storm giants.

There were not many of them, and they gathered in twos and threes, either fighting in the huge martial arts arena, or sitting in the courtyard and chatting.

There are also storm giants who meditate atop towers and practice their spells against the endless storm.

Most of the storm giants are adults, more males than females, the ratio is about two to one, each of them possesses powerful strength, wears a uniform style of armor, has an affinity for thunder and lightning in their souls, and giants with outstanding talents also have wind power. Elemental affinity, easily mastered the two schools of spells.

The giants cast their gazes as the Earth Bear passed by.

They seemed to be very familiar with Bremet, and occasionally greeted him, and then all looked at Ren curiously.

Obviously, very few humans visited the Temple of Storms, which immediately attracted the attention of the giants.

There are thirty or forty storm giants encountered along the way, most of them are high-level giants, and there are seven or eight legendary ones. They are all proficient in close combat and spells, and their strength is much higher than that of ordinary legendary transcendents.

Ryan also saw a titan!

This titan was obviously taller and stronger than the other giants, with a height of more than eight meters. He sat alone on a platform and meditated on the distant storm, without being disturbed by other giants.

Even though he was sitting still, Ren could still feel the terrifying aura from the titan across hundreds of meters.

Ren looked away from the Titan, looked at Nuo Da's Temple of Storms, and thought:

"There are too few giants."

Most areas of the temple are deserted.

He noticed that the Storm Temple used a kind of lightning energy, and the energy of all facilities, lighting, and magic circles seemed to come from a source deep in the temple.

This lightning energy is very similar to electricity, maintaining the operation of the temple.

More than 70% of the buildings were in the dark, dead silent. Outside the giants' activity area, there were still many palaces that collapsed due to lack of energy and became ruins due to the erosion of time.

The scarcity of the population is the Achilles' heel of the Storm Giants. They can't even restore the temple, let alone restore the glory of ten thousand years ago.

After a while, the Earth Bear stopped in front of a huge palace.

Ren looked up and saw that the palace was located in the center of the Temple of Storms, with a height of more than 100 meters. The stone pillars that required dozens of people to hug each other were arranged on hundreds of steps. The main entrance of the palace was wider and brighter than the city gate. It must be tall enough to allow five or six giants to run side by side.

On both sides of the main entrance, there are two huge statues.

The colossus looks like a storm giant, but it is stronger than a giant. It is ten meters high. It is made of a dark blue metal. There are lightning runes on its limbs and torso. , turned around and looked over.

The surrounding lightning elements are boiling, and there is a piercing sound of electric current.

Sensing the danger, Ren quickly stopped in his tracks.

Bremitt said: "This is the lightning-cast colossus guarding the temple. This is your first time here. They don't recognize you..."

Halfway through the dwarf's words, the Thundercast Colossus seemed to have received an order, and the energy stopped.

They regained their standing, like sculptures.

Ren looked at it in surprise. This kind of colossus is more powerful than the mechanical puppets of the mechanic. Not only does it have preliminary intelligence, but the energy that drives them is even more incredible. Obviously, the technology is even more advanced than the rune steam engine.

He was curious, how to drive a colossus weighing at least tens of tons?

If you get a chance to touch it.

Ren thought to himself that it only takes a second for the metal touch to sense the structure of the Colossus, and he has an understanding of its manufacturing process.

At this time, a loud and magnetic voice came from the palace, as if it came from a distant time and space, directly reaching the soul, which made people feel awe.

"Guests from afar, please come in."
