After passing through the huge city gate and entering the city, the first thing that catches everyone's eyes is
It's another city wall.
Gordon and Feng Ying both looked at Ancier, who shrugged and explained: "As a fortress city in the hub area, Dongdoruma's urban planning is quite special. Just enter the inner city."
As Ancier said, the outer area of the city is completely designed as a militarized fortress.
Normally, this place is garrisoned by guild knights with bright armor.
Heavy weapons such as cannons and crossbows can be seen everywhere on the wide city walls. There are more than one giant steam-driven dragon gun. In the warehouses inside the city walls, various ammunition materials are piled up like mountains.
According to Ancier, this is a battle street specially isolated to prevent excessive casualties to the residents of the city when certain "special monsters" attack.
Feng Ying didn't understand the hidden meaning and looked around like a curious child.
But Gordon understood that those so-called "special monsters" should refer to the migrating ancient dragons.
Due to its special geographical location, there have been many ancient dragon attacks in East Doruma's history, with intervals ranging from decades to several years.
Therefore, in terms of defensive preparations, Dondoruma has done far better than other cities.
Organizations such as the Hunter Guild, the Ancient Dragon Observation Bureau, and the Wang Li Ancient Biology Scribes Team have set up their headquarters here, not just because of the prosperity of East Doruma.
——In order to deal with the disasters caused by the frequent attacks of ancient dragons, the core purpose is to conduct preparation and research for the purpose of prevention.
After twisting and turning and passing through the battle street composed of multiple walls and fortifications, Gordon and his party finally entered the city of East Doruma.
Even though he is no longer the ignorant country boy he once was, the moment Gordon walks out of the inner city wall, he will still be shocked by the lively and prosperous East Doruma.
This giant city built on the mountain and facing the sea is divided into three levels - the business area at the foot of the mountain, the residential area on the second level, and the central area on the mountainside.
Each level is connected by huge slope roads and steps.
There are numerous large and small windmills spinning slowly along the roads, beside the workshops, and even on the carts of the vendors.
This is a city driven by the wind.
The continuous sea breeze of the Geokluk Sea injects surging power into her. In the traditional culture of Dongdoruma, wind is a gift from nature and a blessing.
The commercial circulation area located at the foot of the mountain is the largest and most prosperous area in East Doruma.
East Doruma Port and several commercial streets are located here.
Here, you can find products from almost any human settlement in the world. Feng Ying, who has a sharp eye, also saw colorful and ink-style hanging paintings from the Land of Fire.
Through the style of painting, she can even tell who painted the painting, but the price is a bit scary - traveling across the ocean and half of the old continent, the shipping fee for this painting is probably higher than the painting itself.
In addition to commercial trade, various workshops and handicraft workshops are also set up here.
Knowing this, Gordon wanted to visit the forging workshop first.
You must know that in Dongdoruma, where talents gather, the blacksmithing industry is also world-famous. Compared with Nagulli Village, which occupies a volcanic location, it is not much different.
Feng Ying also wants to go, her purpose is more simple, she just wants to get new equipment as soon as possible.
The two of them looked at a chimney that was clanging with black smoke, and wanted to run there, but Ancil pulled them back.
He said angrily: "Why are you so anxious? There is more than one forging workshop in East Doruma, and there are several large workshops with names. Why are you going to that ordinary blacksmith shop?"
"Uh, then which one should we go to?" Gordon was very obedient and always had to listen to the advice of local cowards.
"Go to my house first."
Gordon: "?"
"Does Senior Anxier's family have a forging workshop?" Feng Ying asked curiously.
"I'm kidding." Anhil said with a straight face, "But I also have familiar workshops that I can recommend, and I'll take you there later."
After stopping the two people who wanted to run around, the group continued walking towards the city center.
After passing through the commercial circulation area, they came to the second level - the residential area - located between the foot of the mountain and the mountainside.
The buildings here are mainly residential buildings, with shops, parks and other civil facilities. The world-famous Dondoruma Grand Theater and Grand Arena are also located in this area.
It can be said that this is the place with the highest population density in the world.
"So, the hunter assembly hall in East Doruma is built on the third floor? The highest central area?" Gordon asked curiously while looking at the neat small residential buildings on both sides of the road.
Anhil pointed to the huge and vague buildings on the mountainside in the distance and said: "Not only the assembly hall, but also the headquarters of the Ancient Dragon Observation Bureau, the large library of the Wang Li Paleontology Scribes Team, and the Grand Hall are also set up there.
Well, the tallest and largest building is the Grand Old Hall, which is also the headquarters of the Hunter Guild.
Ordinary people, even hunters, are usually prohibited from entering. Only high-ranking hunters can enter and exit freely to pay homage to the great elder. "
"What if I have a letter of introduction from 'Heroes of Kokot'?" Gordon chuckled.
Anhill glanced at Gordon, of course he knew that the latter had such a letter of introduction.
To be honest, it was precisely thanks to this letter of introduction that their trip over the past year was so smooth.
"With the title of Lord Hero, you can naturally go in and see the Great Elder. After all, they were partners who fought side by side.
But the question is, what can you do after meeting the Great Elder? Take a photo with him? "
Gordon smiled dryly and didn't reply. He was just joking. The Great Elder was the leader of the Hunter Guild, and he didn't dare to come and disturb him for nothing.
"Okay, my home is here." Anhil suddenly stopped.
Gordon, Feng Ying, Zhu Ba, and even Amber all turned their heads to look at the magnificent building on the roadside.
This building occupies nearly half a street, is five stories high, and is entirely made of neat ashlar stones. In terms of scale, it is not much smaller than the Hunter Gathering Hall in Minagard.
Gordon looked up at the flat roof of the building and swallowed, "Is this your home?"
"Um."
Feng Ying also looked ignorant and stammered: "Which room?"
"Of course this whole building."
"I knew your family was rich, but I didn't expect it to be so rich." Gordon leaned back tactically and said, "I underestimated you, young master, I'm sorry!!"
Ancil kicked Gordon and scolded with a smile: "Stop playing tricks and go in quickly."
After that, he calmly pushed open the iron gate of the courtyard outside the building, walked through the front yard, walked up the steps in front of the building, and then knocked on the luxurious door inlaid with bronze patterns.
On the roadside outside the building, Feng Ying carefully grabbed a corner of Gordon's Fire Dragon suit, "Are we going in like this? Are we really not going to be kicked out?"
"Can Ailu enter the cat with bare feet?" Piglet was also a little frightened, licking his paws uneasily.
Gordon smiled and patted the two of them on the head, "Let's go, let's follow Young Master Ancil to see what the life of rich people is like."
ps. The picture on the green water dragon set is right, the childhood shadow level
How do you call Dondoruma in the game? It is a "street" with tens of thousands of square meters reaching the sky.
If it were really based on that park-level layout, the setting of "the most prosperous and majestic city in mankind" would be impossible to write.
I had no choice but to create my own on this basis.
Dongdoruma that appears in the game will become a core area in the center of Dongdoruma City in this book, similar to the relationship between the Forbidden City and BJ City.
(Of course, Dongdoruma cannot be as big as BJ City. It has at most three rings.)
