The royal capital of Pontos - Hertori, the great miracle that the bards keep singing about, the city of the gods, can be called the most majestic city in the Western Continent.
As we got closer to Hertoli, there were more and more pedestrians around, mostly caravans and mercenaries. Everyone was dressed cleanly and energetically, with their heads held high.
Shiloh and his party were extremely conspicuous in the crowd.
The heroic and imposing Storm Camp guarded the gorgeous carriage, making all passers-by look sideways and curious about which nobleman was inside the carriage.
Everyone led the way and walked in the middle of the avenue. Finally, under the golden sunshine, the majestic city outline in the distance emerged from the horizon little by little.
Shiloh lifted the door curtain, held his breath, looked at this magnificent city recorded in countless classics, and felt that his heart was severely shocked.
Compared with Hertoli, Stormwind City is like a small village, the kind that is located deep in the mountains and has no access roads.
Shiloh didn't even know how to describe this city. Facing this majestic city, he felt that all the words and expressions he knew became pale and powerless. If there were any human wonders to be ranked in this world, he
Wouldn't hesitate to add Hertori to this list.
This shock was too great. It was like standing on the top of the world, overlooking the turbulent storm. Shiloh could feel the great creativity belonging to human beings washing away every cell of his body like a tide, making him feel that all his body was
His hair stood on end, and he couldn't help but want to praise and cheer.
Shiloh looked at Hertoli with fascination, a city located on the red leaf plain.
The entire city looks like a huge bull's horns when viewed from a high altitude. It is divided into three major areas from the outside to the inside, namely the Lower City, the Upper City and the Royal Palace.
Each city area is separated by a guard city wall that is 20 meters high and 10 meters wide. Giant towers are built every 50 steps on the guard city walls, which are equipped with cannons and bunkers that can be used for long-range attacks. They are easy to defend and difficult to attack.
The three major areas are connected by a huge golden gate. The quiet and gentle Likas River flows through Hertoli, nurturing this capital of the human kingdom.
Outside the royal capital, several acropolis were specially built, shaped like fortresses, to guard the royal capital Hertoli like loyal defenders.
What attracts the most attention is the outer city wall of Hertoli, which is the guard city wall outside the lower city. It is 30 meters high and stretches for dozens of miles, embracing the entire Hertoli.
A total of ten city gates have been built on the city wall, all of which are in the shape of round arches and full of various reliefs. In the center is the famous Saint Romanus Gate, the founder of Pontos - Norman
The emperor's head is carved directly above the St. Romanus Gate and will forever guard the dynasty created by him.
The stones used to build the city walls and acropolis are all carefully selected high-quality bluestones. Each piece weighs hundreds of kilograms and is extremely strong.
At this time, what Hilo faced was the Gate of St. Romanus.
Damn, this is so cool.
Shiloh was speechless for a moment and could only express her emotions in such easy-to-understand words.
Only people of royal blood can pass through the Saint Romanus Gate. Therefore, the further you go, the fewer pedestrians around you. They gradually follow the bifurcation of the road and flock to other city gates, leaving only the Storm Camp walking in the middle.
On the avenue.
From a distance, Shiloh saw a group of cavalry standing on both sides of the road.
This group of people saw Shiloh and his entourage, and immediately galloped towards them. They had tall horses, bright armor and weapons, and tall and straight bodies... During the process of galloping, they vaguely showed a solid formation, which made people look at them.
Accompanied by the neighing of the horses, this group of cavalry slowly slowed down. The leader pulled the reins, and the tall horseman stood up. Then he stepped on the ground with his front hooves and stopped steadily a dozen steps in front of the Storm Camp.
"Commander!"
The knight walked to the front of the Storm Camp, immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted respectfully.
The soldiers of the Storm Battalion dispersed, and Connor slowly rode forward. With a hint of excitement in his eyes, he said: "Nicholas, it's you who are on patrol today."
"Sir, I didn't expect to see you here!"
Connor held up his hand in the air, signaling Nicholas to get up.
"Let's talk after small talk, Nicholas, let me escort His Highness into the city first."
"yes!"
The knights pulled the reins, immediately guarded both sides of the convoy, and walked towards Hertori little by little.
Hilo looked at this group of knights. They numbered at least 100 people. Their armors were similar to those of Hilo's knights. They should be the Royal Elite Knights of Pontos, but Hilo's knights only wore leather inlaid with iron sheets.
A, far shabbier than these knights.
My cheap dad is so stingy that he sent me to the high seas without even giving me a decent armor.
Shiloh couldn't help complaining in her heart.
Halfway along the way, Shiloh finally couldn't help but ask: "Connor, how long did it take to build a great city like Hertoli?"
Connor smiled lightly and said: "Your Highness, Hertoli has been under construction from the founding of the country to the present."
"It took 50 years since the founding emperor Norman started to build the main city, and then expanded it little by little. Until now, Hertoli is still under construction. In the future, the royal capital of Pontos will become majestic."
Shiloh took a breath. It took hundreds of years of hard work and the sweat and wisdom of many generations to build such a city. The future of Stormwind City will be difficult and long.
From here to the St. Romanus Gate, everyone walked for more than half an hour. After showing their passes, the golden gate was slowly pushed open.
Hilo, who was intoxicated by the majestic and tall city walls and the exquisite and gorgeous reliefs, was like a mud-legged man who had never seen the world, looking at this miracle of human beings with obsession and greed... Finally, he passed through the vast city gate and faced him.
What came was another spectacular scene.
Dome-shaped buildings full of Romanesque architectural style abound, and tall buildings and luxurious houses are scattered like chess pieces.
The streets are built with bluestone splicing. Businessmen in various costumes are walking around in Xiacheng District. There are lively crowds gathering, restaurants, shops, markets... everything you need.
The streets were filled with civilians doing business, selling everything from rations to daily necessities, including livestock and slaves.
The dense crowd can't be seen at a glance. Pontos soldiers wearing bright armors with strict military postures are patrolling along the streets.
Shiloh took a deep breath and noticed that there were different fragrances mixed in the air, which should be the smell of some spices.
Just the lower city is so luxurious, but I don't know how luxurious the upper city and the palace are.
