Theoretically, in order to prevent the leakage of expensive and powerful preservatives and to prevent the involvement of external dust, Elcat is basically a completely sealed environment.
But there are exceptions to everything. Since there are scattered undead outside Elkart, and there are undead pirates raging in the east sea of Titan, it means that at least there is a place where you can enter and exit.
When Roland was in the game, he basically never came here because he hated the sandstorm weather in Elkart. But even so, he still ran here in order to get live spines, blood worms and other things.
Several trips.
Elkart's merchants don't want gold or silver coins, and they even disdain gems and enchanted equipment. If they want to buy Elkart's things, they can only use books they don't have, major news from the outside world, as well as legends and secrets. If
If you are not an undead, it is impossible to gain goodwill. You will be driven away after the transaction. Those who cheat and don't want to leave will undoubtedly pay a heavy price.
Faced with a group of guys who are as lustless and calm as the eminent monks, even the most outstanding diplomats can hit a wall here. No matter how good they are, the most they can get is a cold and dull "oh".
This is the reason why Roland decisively followed Arthur when the plot branched out instead of following Elucardo to unify Elkart.
Those artistic buildings are the goblin research institutes and entertainment venues, while those pipes are the apartments and shops of the undead. Although the pipes don't look very thick, the space inside is enough to build a three-story building.
It's completely enough to use one floor to open a store or something.
The goblins and the undead have spent nearly a thousand years here in peace and harmony. Perhaps because of the natural affinity of the goblins, they have been exceptionally harmonious during this thousand years, without any large-scale conflicts.
It's as if time has stopped at this moment.
However, it is not just time that has stalled, but also Elkart's development.
Thousands of years ago, even compared with the southern countries, Elkart's technology was absolutely suppressive. But now, compared with Su Ze, its advantages are almost gone.
Whether it is the weather controller developed by Su Ze a few years later, or the panacea that has begun mass production, the light of flowing fire and the anthropomorphic golem are all technologies that even Elkart does not have today.
Thousands of years ago, Elkat was the only country with space operations technology.
Before their city was completely destroyed by the divine radiation of the gods, the popular way of traveling within Elkart was the teleportation array. They placed teleportation nodes like bus stop signs almost every hundred meters in units.
It's all. Today's shelter or chicken coop-like living style is the result of Tire's use of authority to detonate the heat of the sun on the ground.
That was an excellent deterrent.
Without the protection of the Silver Queen, the "peaceful" technology that the Elkat people were proud of was helpless against the power of the gods' authority. Their homeland was completely destroyed in an instant. The undead suddenly disappeared from the sky.
Wake up from the fanaticism and arrogance.
At that time, the authority and divine power of nearly twenty gods were mixed and poured into the earth, causing a violent dimensional shock. Not only did it completely destroy Elkart's space technology, it also completely destroyed the vegetation, and the greenery was wiped from the land.
eradicate.
At that time, some radical undead people organized and decided to resist, and then they were captured, directly thrown into the meat grinder and fed to horses, or burned into ashes at high temperature and then used to build walls. Facts have proved that without the blessing of their mentor, they
Apart from being less easy to kill, their combat effectiveness is no different from that of ordinary people.
After realizing this, some of the undead quickly succumbed.
After a long period of bargaining, they allowed the gods to enter Elkart to preach, demolished all the statues of saints and more than 90% of the statues of the Silver Queen, and allowed the gods to purchase Elkart's technology.
Sad peace.
No one doesn't want peace, they can only accept it. The last resistance of the radical Elkat people is to destroy almost all the old technology with their own hands. With the acquiescence of all the remaining undead and goblins,
In the end Elkart almost turned into a white field.
The temporary fortress and the technology in the town were all reduced to nothing, just like the plundered town. After that, the goblins created a sandstorm and hid the decayed Elkart.
.And the gods who had killed the Silver Queen were too lazy to squeeze out the oil from this iron cock. After that, another few decades passed, and when all the first batch of humans died, a brand new city was built on the ruins.
It was rebuilt.
That is Elcat today.
Roland and Elucard walked towards the harp-like building. He didn't meet anyone along the way, but Roland's perception told him that he had been targeted by many people.
This is inevitable. Elkart is not a place where people often come. Generally speaking, only one or two outsiders will join a year - and 80% of them are wizards who are eager to live forever to continue their research.
.These pseudo-undead who call themselves lich do not even have the consciousness to maintain the appearance of human beings. Instead, they let their flesh and bones rot and decay, leaving only a withered yellow skeleton in the end. Or they simply use their spirits to drive simple machines for research. Of course, this is not
It is said that they do not have the ability to restore human form. If necessary, they can change into humanoid appearance at any time, but they have no meaning in doing so. Anyway, they usually never go out.
And the person Roland is looking for is a lich.
When Roland walked under the building, he gently buttoned the shell of the building and said in a clear voice: "soro. (White Tower secret language: open the secret layer)"
As Roland's voice fell, the harp-like building began to jingle. Along with the slow-paced music, ripples appeared in the air, reflecting a withered yellow skull like a projection screen.
After a slight pause, an old voice came from behind: "gater? (password?)"
"No password."
Roland just said calmly: "I am Orlando. Orlando from the White Tower."
The person on the other side was silent for a long time before he asked: "How to prove it?"
"I know who you are, Auletta. You are the personal disciple of the great wizard Merlin, the original inheritor of the fifth tower... or in other words, the former secret keeper. You must know who I am, no need to pretend."
Roland revealed the secret mercilessly, but the lich didn't say a word. ︽2︽2︽.*2ge︽2,
He just sighed softly and without saying a word, he used white lines to instantly weave a complex teleportation array in front of Roland's eyes.
Roland and Elucard collapsed in without fear. When they opened their eyes again, they had already entered the interior of this closed building complex.
"Greetings to you, Your Majesty the Three Times Great Roland."
An ordinary skeleton wearing a robe and without any flash of light bowed to Roland. It could be regarded as an expression of respect.
And on Auletta's shoulder, sat a green-haired girl about the size of an adult's forearm.
"My sincerest respect to you"
She asked in a clear voice: "My name is Seruna! I hope we can become friends...my great kin!"
