No one knows how big the land beneath their feet is. It is said that two legendary strong men once explored south and north respectively, and spent decades without reaching the end of the continent.
When they reunited after a hundred years, they built a city where they met.
This is the predecessor of the City of Kings!
The power structure of the big world is similar to the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods of China in the main world. There are many local princes, and wars and conflicts break out between each other from time to time. The Capital of Kings is only nominally recognized as the co-owner.
This has historical origins.
Because today's vassal states, including Nilo, were once part of a unified empire.
The Capital of Kings was the imperial capital of the empire at that time and has a glorious history of thousands of years.
Although the current Capital of Kings has declined, it is still the largest and most majestic city in the wilderness, with a population of tens of millions, and is the center of human politics and extraordinary civilization in the wilderness.
For thousands of years, this position has never been shaken.
Not long after Gao Jing came to the big world, he heard the name of the Capital of Kings.
The old wizard Shanyan traveled around the world when he was young and spent several years in the Capital of Kings.
He lived and studied in this city, and his experiences during this period affected his life.
The old wizard Shanyan told Gao Jing a lot about the Capital of Kings, including some interesting anecdotes.
Later, Gao Jing also read descriptions of the Capital of Kings in some classics.
Therefore, there was always a memory of this city in his mind, and he sketched out the general outline and appearance through his imagination.
And today, after a long journey of two months, Gao Jing was finally able to verify with his own eyes his imagination of the Capital of Kings!
Gao Jing was not disappointed, in fact it was beyond imagination.
The Capital of Kings is a huge city built on a plain. As the imperial capital of the empire, its location is not dangerous at all. It is surrounded by smooth roads in all directions, with only a long river rushing through it in the west.
But it is precisely such an open and flat terrain that gives the City of Kings a huge space for development, allowing it to continuously expand its space over thousands of years.
From a distance, the Capital of Kings is divided into three parts.
The first is the outermost suburbs, which are composed of countless farmlands, manors and villages and towns. The streets seem to be like a dense and huge network surrounding the city.
The urban area is divided into two parts-the outer city and the inner city.
The inner city has a tall and majestic city wall, with tall towers and giant trees reaching into the sky. It is a forest composed of rocks and trees.
The area of the outer city is at least ten times larger than that of the inner city. Although the number of wizard towers is very small, the high and low buildings are lined up in rows, dotted with ancient trees of life, which is also uniquely charming compared to the inner city.
"Your Majesty."
Lan He said to Gao Jing in a proud tone: "That is the Tree of Ten Thousand Ancestors!"
What this merchant group steward was referring to was a towering tree standing in the center of the inner city.
There is also a similar giant tree in the center of the city of King Nile - the Mother Tree of Life.
That was the mother tree of the first Ancient Tree of Life, which was planted by the Giant King who established the Capital of Nero. He brought tree seeds here from the distant Capital of Kings and planted it himself.
It is said that all the ancient trees of life in King Nero's capital are reproduced through this tree.
In fact, the term "mother tree" is incorrect, because its seeds come from the Tree of All Ancestors in the Capital of Kings!
Legend has it that one of the legendary strong men who explored the mainland back then got a seed from an ancient ruin in the far north, and brought it back here after going through all kinds of hardships.
He buried it in what was then a wilderness until the seeds took root and grew into a giant tree.
A unified empire was also established step by step.
The tree seeds produced by the Tree of Ten Thousand Ancestors for thousands of years were taken away and scattered in all directions, becoming new mother trees.
The mother tree then reproduces a large number of daughter trees.
So tracing back to its roots, the Tree of Ten Thousand Ancestors is the ancestral source of all ancient trees of life, hence its name!
After thousands of years of vicissitudes, the Tree of Ten Thousand Ancestors is still full of vitality. It opens its huge canopy and protects the majestic city beneath it in its arms.
No matter where people come from, as long as they enter the area of the Capital of Kings, the first thing they see is the Tree of Ten Thousand Ancestors.
It is the landmark of the City of Kings!
Gao Jing also knew that the Tree of Ten Thousand Ancestors had spiritual intelligence, and it was precisely because of its existence that the vassal states maintained their superficial respect and courtesy towards the Capital of Ten Thousand Kings, and did not dare to offend easily.
This is what Wu Li told Gao Jing.
Looking at this tree of ten thousand ancestors from a distance, Gao Jing felt a subtle feeling in his heart.
"Your Majesty."
Gu Li, who was next to him, bowed to him respectfully: "We have to go."
The Bronze Rhinoceros Tribe has no intention of entering the Capital of Kings. In fact, a tribe in exile is not qualified to settle and live in this city. They want to join another large tribe further north.
So when we got here, it was time to part ways.
"Um."
Gao Dingding nodded: "You go ahead."
There is no constant feast in the world, the Bronze Rhinoceros tribe is not a mountain tribe, and he does not have much friendship with Gu Li and others.
Only Yaya was reluctant to leave, and her eyes immediately turned red: "Your Majesty..."
For more than a month in the past, this little girl has been following Gao Jing. While serving Gao Jing wholeheartedly, she also received guidance from Gao Jing.
Although Gao Jing is not a great wizard, he is still more than enough to teach a beginner.
It was under Gao Jing's guidance that the little girl now became a sorcerer and formed her own seal.
Her talent is still very outstanding. As long as she doesn't die prematurely, she will definitely become a great witch in the future.
"Just work hard."
Gao Jing reached out and rubbed her head, then hung the animal skin bag that he had prepared on the little girl's body.
"For you."
Cats and dogs will develop feelings for each other after being together for a long time, let alone a living person.
During this period of time, Gao Jing has been liking this cute and sensible little girl.
This animal skin bag contained two wizarding books, five talisman tablets and dozens of bottles of potions. It was Gao Jing's parting gift to her.
In fact, they borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha, because these things were obtained from the witch leader who was beheaded by Gao Jing.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The little girl knelt down holding the animal skin bag and kowtowed three times to Gao Jing respectfully.
Both of them knew very well that after this separation, there would probably be no chance of seeing each other again.
Wish you a bright future!
Gao Jing silently sent his blessings in his heart, and then watched the little girl leave with the tribe.
"let's go."
Gao Jing said to Lan He, "I want to enter the city before dark."
It was already afternoon, and there was still some distance to go from the outer city of the Capital of Kings.
The Chenhui Merchant Group accelerated their pace.
Everyone can't wait to end this long and hard journey!
