Eager to see the legendary city in the sky as soon as possible, Greem had freshened up early in the morning, had breakfast, and then strolled onto the deck.
The deck was already overcrowded at this moment, and even many wizards who had been sitting ducks as soon as they stepped onto the flying ship appeared among them, occupying some of the most advantageous positions on the side of the ship, quietly waiting for the Holy City to appear.
The spacecraft was passing between the clouds at the moment, and the white clouds shaped like cotton candy were torn into pieces of broken cotton wool by the sprayed wind particles, leaving a white cloud trail behind the ship.
While everyone was waiting anxiously, something suddenly lit up in front of their eyes.
The flying ship broke through the clouds and plunged into a clear void.
The sky is so blue.
On the vast green grassland on the ground, you can see gray roads extending in all directions, as well as alchemy castles and vast cattle and sheep pastures scattered everywhere.
And between heaven and earth, a majestic, holy, yet mysterious and mysterious city was floating there, quietly waiting for them to visit.
From a distance, the City in the Sky looks like an inverted pyramid, with a thick and round top and a slightly sharp bottom. The bottom of the city is obviously a whole layer of mud dug out from the ground, and then processed by witchcraft.
, it turned into something like an inverted hill.
Directly below the Sky City, a huge lake covering an area of tens of thousands of acres is clearly visible.
Looking at its size and shape, it is easy to understand the origin of the foundation of the Sky City!
The City in the Sky obviously possesses some kind of resistance field, so an invisible air barrier pushes the clouds in the sky to the periphery, forming an artificially empty clear zone within 30 miles around it.
And the flying ship just plunged out of the sea of clouds and entered this clear zone.
Suddenly, a strange sound of gear machinery was heard in the void, and huge boulders suspended in the air slowly approached the flying ship.
"This is the first test to enter the Sky City. Please do not resist, and you are not allowed to attack these mechanical guards!" An alliance wizard wearing a silver robe on the flying ship ordered loudly. With the expansion of mysterious authority, his
Although the sound was not loud, it was able to spread to every living entity on the flying ship, even those wizards who had closed themselves in their rooms.
Mechanical guard?!
Grim glanced at these boulders in confusion.
There are 5 boulders in total.
Each one is 3 meters tall and 2 meters thick. The surface is rugged and full of mud and sand. There are also some vines and small trees growing on it. It seems to be a huge rock temporarily cut from the mountain peak.
But as soon as they approached the flying ship, a dazzling fluorescence suddenly emitted from the inside of the rock, and a large complex of intricate rune lines and witchcraft symbols appeared on its surface. Then the boulder trembled, and the rock blocks were displaced, revealing each dark
holes.
Immediately, some metallic mechanical arms poked out from inside and stretched towards the spaceship.
At the end of the robotic arm, a strange creature's eyeball covered with bloodshot eyes was scanning the surrounding area.
As the boulders floated near the flying ship, the eyeballs at the ends of the metal tentacles shot out strange blue rays, slowly sweeping over everyone.
Five boulders surrounded the flying ship, almost sealing off its surroundings. Blue light nets criss-crossed, scanning the people and the ship's hull. Even with thick cabin boards, they could not block the penetration of this blue light.
Even the people in the cabin were scanned in detail.
With the reminder from the alliance wizards, the wizards on board the ship did not cast spells to resist the penetration of blue light. And this blue light is obviously just a low-level witchcraft detection, mainly used to identify the identity of creatures and detect whether the target has
Witchcraft effects such as disguise, deformation, and parasitism will not touch the deep secrets of the wizard.
When the wizard was scanned, everything was fine. When the blue light scanned the goblin Kirby, the blue light paused for a moment. However, as an identity amulet around Kirby's neck also lit up with witchcraft fluorescence, the blue light just swept over without triggering.
Alert mechanism.
This amulet was specially obtained by Greem from the silver-robed wizard on the ship.
Without this thing, alien creatures like Goblin Kirby would have difficulty traveling on the Sky City. It stores the witchcraft marks of Kirby's contract owner Grim and the guarantee wizard Angus. Once lost, it will be lost to the Sky City Guards.
Directly detain or deport.
The testing does not take long.
When the blue light scanned the entire ship, the boulders retracted their protruding metal tentacles, turned into floating boulders again, and slowly left.
Greem glanced around. In the clear zone of Nuoda, every flying ship emerging from the sea of clouds was surrounded by a varying number of mechanical guards, and the flickering blue light was clearly visible.
After the inspection, the flying ship began to move forward again, and gradually began to approach the outer ring flying platform of the Sky City.
And as the distance got closer, the city in the sky, which was only dimly visible just now, finally unveiled its mysterious veil and presented its true side to everyone.
To be honest, although I have read descriptions of the Castle in the Sky from many books, many wizards who visited it for the first time were still shocked when it was presented in a real and realistic way.
Viewed from above, the City in the Sky looks like three huge concentric rings nestled together, dividing the entire city outline into three clear blocks. This is probably where the inner ring, middle ring, and outer ring come from!
All the huge buildings full of bizarre and psychedelic styles are built on these rings. Almost every inch of land on them is precious, and every inch of the land is covered by dense buildings and plants. And between the three large rings are some
This mysterious force separates them, making them difficult to cross easily and can only be communicated through some special bridges.
Looking down from Greem's point of view, wooden buildings hidden in the huge green shade, tall, solid and majestic stone buildings, and metal buildings full of high-tech flavor can be seen everywhere. Towering spiers, round palaces, weird and elegant shapes
Twisted alien buildings... This place has almost become an exhibition of special buildings, with all the weird buildings you can imagine.
Pedestrians as small as ants walked back and forth on the white and spacious streets, which seemed very lively.
In the inner ring, they transplanted a real mountain there, and many huge and magnificent buildings were built on the mountain, occupying a commanding advantage, majestically overlooking the entire city in the sky.
Above the Sky City, there are even larger mountains and rocks floating there. You can vaguely see the caves on them that are densely covered with entrances and exits, and wizards riding huge flying mounts are entering and exiting inside.
Greem guessed that this should be some kind of place for stationing troops, and it was also part of the huge and strict three-dimensional defense system of the Sky City.
As for the smaller alchemy guards, there are even more, and together with the huge birds carrying loads of goods, they form a busy and orderly corner of the sky in the Sky City.
The location where the flying ship docks is the flying platform in the outer ring.
There is a flying platform like this almost every five miles, with flying ships rising and falling on it, making it look extremely busy.
When Grim, Alice and Kirby, led by Wizard Angus, stepped off the flying ship and stepped onto the neat and clean marble floor of the Sky City, looking at the blurry and fantastic scenes around them, there was still a trace of disbelief on their faces.
expression.
The warm sunshine shines down from the sky, shining on this alchemy city, and there are little spots of light reflected from the surfaces of exquisite buildings everywhere.
This makes the city in the sky even more beautiful and resplendent!
Most of the people who were constantly walking around Greem and others were wizards, and there were also some wizard apprentices among them. From time to time, you could also see some alien creatures wearing gorgeous clothes. As for ordinary people, there were none at all.
Qualify to set foot on this great city that marks the highest alchemical achievement in the wizarding world.
Greem made a special observation. On the flying platform, the coolies doing the work of loading and unloading cargo were all tall and mighty iron golems. Although their movements were a little clumsy, their work efficiency was ten times higher than that of the others.
With human coolies.
And those who direct their work are wizard apprentices.
It can be seen that the lowest level of the people in this city in the sky are these wizard apprentices!
As soon as Greem and his party stepped off the flying platform, alchemy carriages stopped smoothly in front of them.
The golden carriage, golden wheels, golden waiters, and even the two horses pulling the carriage are golden...
Two golden horses stopped in front of Greem, snoring and pawing their hooves gently, just like real horses.
However, Greem's perception "sees" very clearly.
They are not real life forms, but alchemical creations, or they can also be called alchemical creatures!
"We'll see you at No. 167 Champlière Avenue!" Wizard Angus first got into a carriage, nodded to Grim and left.
When the fully metallized alchemical horse galloped quickly, it didn't give people the stiff and sluggish feeling of metal creations. Even when the hard metal horseshoes landed on the smooth marble floor, there was no expected deafening sound.
The alchemy carriage was like a small boat floating on the water, weaving through the crowd calmly and quickly, and disappeared into the vast sea of people.
Grim looked at the confusing and fantastic scene in front of him in shock, and his mind always involuntarily overlapped it with some super sci-fi earth scene. And in his mind, the chip's prompts never stopped.
"Dip, an unknown alchemical creation was discovered..."
"Hey, I sensed the existence of an unknown force field..."
"Hey, a strange life form has been detected..."
"..."
There were so many things here that exceeded his expectations, and it almost made him feel like he was on the future earth.
If the study of occult science reaches its deepest level, could it be possible that it will reach the same destination as scientific and technological civilization and eventually embark on the same path?
While Greem was silently in a daze, Alice couldn't help but scream. Whenever she saw a mysterious object that she had never seen before, she couldn't help but exclaim.
The goblin Kirby was lying on the alchemy carriage, touching here and there, and even nibbling it with his teeth from time to time to verify his conjecture. Looking at the obsessed smile on his face, he must have thought that he had arrived at the legendary
El Dorado!
"Let's go too!" Greem closed his eyes for a moment to calm down, then turned around and ordered: "Let's settle here first before going out for a walk!"
The three of them got into the alchemy carriage in front of them.
"Go to 167 Avenue des Champs-Élysées!"
As soon as the order was given, the alchemy carriage started moving smoothly!
