After finishing some chores, Shado did not spend the night in Severton, but went directly to Everesca through the permanent portal that was just built last year.
There are still two days left in the agreement between him and Hildalanna, but he is not sure how long it will take to observe the mystery lock, and he is not prepared to stay in Egypt after contacting Hildalanna or the other party's men.
Friska.
Therefore, we can only leave as early as possible.
…
Everriska.
The tall teleportation gate flashed with light, and a young man wearing a sky-blue robe appeared in the teleportation hall. The young man first looked around, seeming to be quite unfamiliar with the surrounding environment.
At this moment, an elf guard by the portal came forward and said in fluent Nese language: "Human mage, come here to register."
"Are you talking about me?" Xia Duo asked curiously. The last time he came here, there was no such process, and the location of the teleportation this time was also different from the last time.
The last time was in the middle section of the Genting Tower, where the view was wide. As soon as you exited the portal, you could see the mountains surrounding the Everiska platform.
But this time, it was in a teleportation hall on the ground. The mountains in the distance could only be seen through the gaps between some towering towers and suspended bridges.
As for this portal guard, there is actually not only one, there are two elves and one human not far behind him.
Everriska’s elf family, Shado, didn’t know much about it, but the Seven Towers emblem on the human mage’s body was very obvious.
"I'm talking about you, come here!" This voice was not shouted by the elf guard in front of him, but by the human mage not far away.
Xia Duo smiled and walked towards a small pavilion that functioned as a concierge not far away. The elf guard who had greeted him before followed behind him, not impatient at all.
"What's your name? Which mage tower do you belong to? What are you doing in Evereska?"
None of the elves spoke. Instead, the human mage with the emblem of the Seven Towers on his body asked questions. Xia Duo was very curious about all this, so he followed the other person's questions and answered:
"My name is Leiden, I come from the Austrian Union and come to Evereska for a trip."
"It turns out to be a wild mage, Alan, give him level 4 authority." The human mage made a gesture to the elf next to him, then turned to Xia Duo and said with a hint of warning:
"Don't cause trouble. My Lock reminds you that it is strictly forbidden to cast spells in areas where magic is prohibited. It is strictly forbidden to enter areas where trespassing is prohibited. If you encounter trouble, the alarm will be triggered."
After saying that, the human mage threw a small piece of paper to Xia Duo with a few symbols of simple spell casting elements and turned to the other side.
However, the elf next to him, whom the human mage called "Alan", explained a little more, "The spell on the note is to contact the patrol team above. If you encounter any trouble, please contact them. Don't attack others without permission. The fines will be heavy."
When he said the last sentence, Alan's eyes were a little dodgey, and the tips of his ears were trembling a little. Xia Duo immediately understood that this was probably a means of generating income created by the Seven Towers, and even the elves couldn't stand it.
Xia Duo nodded, feeling that the mysterious lock had changed slightly, he stopped staying and left the teleportation hall from the side of the pavilion.
…
Outside the teleportation hall are two almost vertical stone paths, extending into the distance, and at the corner are two humanized projection signs floating.
"Melon Market" and "Dawn Square" are written in Netherese and Elvish respectively.
Chateau had been to Everesca before, so he naturally knew that the former had various shops and hotels, while the latter was a pure tourist attraction, especially last year when the Northland Alliance was officially established in Dawn Plaza.
If a Nese person comes to Evereska for the first time, he will most likely go to Dawn Square to see it. After all, without the Northland Alliance, most Nese people may not be able to come here in their lifetime.
Recalling the city layout he saw on the Yunding Tower when he came to Evereska last time, Shado quickly determined his current location.
He turned around and looked behind him, and sure enough, he saw the looming Genting Tower behind the portal hall. In fact, if it was far away, it should be easier to spot due to the height of the Genting Tower.
Xia Duo is not a real tourist. He came here to steal a teacher and trade inspiration potions with Hildalanna, so he will definitely not take the road to Dawn Square, at least not now.
…
From the teleportation hall to Mellon Market, there is a long and slightly curved stone road. On the left side of the road, which is also the north, is a city garden, and beyond is the aristocratic residential area.
From a distance, Xia Duo could see sparse private estates extending halfway up Yunding Mountain. On the right side of the road, to the south, was a civilian community built under a suspended covered bridge, forming a sharp contrast with the north.
Compared.
It is impossible for Xia Duo, a human, to walk in an elf community without attracting attention. Adults may have long been accustomed to the presence of humans, but elf children do not think so much.
Almost every step of the way, Xia Duo could find a child peeking at him. "I hope it's not a little spy from the Elf Chaoyang District!"
In less than ten minutes, we passed this civilian community, and then there was a wide intersection, almost separated by a street. The noisy and prosperous Mellon Market and the quietness and plainness of the civilian community formed a sharp contrast.
Following the instructions on the road sign, Xia Duo got on the suspended elevator at the intersection and entered the Mellon Market, or Mellon Business District, via the suspended corridor.
When we got here, there were more pedestrians on the road, but most of them were elves, and only a few were humans, and they all looked wary when they saw them from a distance.
Xia Duo was too lazy to deal with these human merchants, and after a while he officially entered Melon Market. Only when he got here did Xia Duo realize that the sign at the intersection just now was probably Seven Towers' idea.
There is obviously an elevator to go to the lower level, but at this moment, the mysterious lock prompts that access is prohibited. If you go back to the intersection and go straight and are prohibited from access, then the appearance of the Seven Towers will be too ugly.
Xia Duo sighed slightly in his heart and found a hotel that was pleasant to his eyes. As soon as he entered the lobby, his ears were immediately clear. There was only the sound of wind chimes coming from nowhere, which made him feel relaxed.
At this moment, an elf waiter with a professional fake smile came up to him and asked respectfully in smooth Nese language:
"Distinguished guests, how many of you are there?"
If an ordinary human comes here and hears that the elves who are usually arrogant greet him with such a low profile, their bones will probably be a few pounds, and it may be used as a talking point to talk about after returning.
But Xia Duo understood that the elf waiter in front of him said "distinguished guest" was not cheap!
After talking to one person, the elf waiter immediately began to recommend enthusiastically: "If you are a guest, I recommend you to choose the Quiet Bamboo Courtyard, the most unique single-person courtyard of our Oakenhill House. It is quiet and comfortable, and the most suitable
