Crowded!
Hustle!
Crowds of people!
A paradise for the rich!
If the Elven Court of Alanorn is filled with the harmonious coexistence of city and nature, even the air of the Griffin Heart Emperor of the Pelada Empire smells of piety and faith in the God of Light, the capital of the undead. The City of Wayne is full of depression, efficiency, and magical alchemy punk shrouded under the canopy of the undead. Then, the Devil's City, the commercial center of the Kaos Empire, is a city where even the dust raised from the ground can make people... A city that smells of copper!
What a prosperous city this is!
There was singing and dancing in the city, and the port was bustling with traffic. Countless large and small caravans carried the goods that had just been shipped out of the port, and transported them to every corner of the city as quickly as possible. Some important materials or rich gentry commissioners even had special supplies for them. The short-distance teleportation circle used, and the extremely precious magic gates that are rarely seen on ordinary days and cost fine gold and mithril to be cast, are scattered in every corner of the city.
On both sides of the avenue, there are rows of tall black buildings made of obsidian. Residential houses and business buildings that are much taller than the Dark Tower in Wayne City are everywhere, such as landmarks such as mercenary guilds or trade centers. The architecture of the city is extraordinarily majestic. The towering spire of the building is simply trying to compete with God!
In addition to the eye-catching buildings, there are countless wonders and wonders in every corner of the city. George even saw the legendary floating bridge in the city’s wide rivers——
Xiehe is a river in the city that crosses the Devil's Capital and leads directly to the Golden Sea. On top of Xiehe's enchanting body, countless bridges are erected on both sides of the river for thousands of caravans to cross the river.
Of course, the Xiehe River is also an important waterway for urban shipping. In order to satisfy both land and ship transportation, the empire spent a lot of manpower and material resources to build a permanent magic circle under the Xiehe River. It can be guided by magic power and move on both sides of the bridge. An invisible channel is built in the river. With this floating bridge, passing ships can float directly for a short time, and the entire ship leaps over the bridge!
In addition, there are magical flying carpets that float in the low sky and are controlled by magic, magic vortices that are said to be able to multiply the magic in the bodies of mages, and so on. What amazed George the most was that it was located in the city. In the center, the plane-level artifact floating above the Tower of Chaos, the Eye of Chaos——
It is the object that takes the form of the Holy Grail, a legendary treasure blessed by the gods. The hero chosen by the gods travels across thousands of mountains and rivers, collects the fragments of the oracle, and finally finds the Holy Grail. The hero placed the Holy Grail in the core of a country's capital. The Holy Grail accepted the faith of the people and turned it into an artifact to protect the city, giving the city prosperity and prosperity!
Although according to legend, each camp has such a Holy Grail, hidden in the core area of the capital, but due to the other camps hiding the Holy Grail, George's story about the Holy Grail and the city-defending artifact has always stayed at the stage of mythology. This was the first time that George saw this unique artifact face to face.
Other empires would love to hide the Holy Grail deep underground;
However, the Kaos Empire went in the opposite direction and placed it in the most conspicuous position. This was a demonstration, a show off, and even more confident. This was the devil's capital's reliance and pride on the imperial army stationed in the city!
The Holy Grail was indeed extraordinary. Just after looking at it from such a distance for a while, George felt the Phoenix Fire in his body begin to surge involuntarily. George wanted to suppress this impulse, but after thinking about it for a moment, George simply let it go. This force.
Without the restraint of mental power, the phoenix fire quickly erupted from George's body and gathered into a small and exquisite phoenix in the blink of an eye. Interestingly, this little phoenix is somewhat similar to Hathor, the daughter of Phoenix King Atom, in terms of expression, size and appearance. She keeps flying up and down next to George, occasionally jumping on the branches, Occasionally it falls on the ground, full of nostalgia for George and curiosity about the outside world.
The little phoenix just flew and flew. After a while, it seemed that she was tired from playing. She suddenly jumped out of the sky, flew into George's body and disappeared. The unfamiliar passers-by thought it was an impromptu performance of street magic, and they all marveled and applauded. George simply followed this beautiful misunderstanding, picked up the coins they threw, smiled and bowed around him.
"The activation of chaos-type magic power...is truly worthy of being an artifact, or rather, truly worthy of being the trading center of the Kaos Empire. How dare you show off the Holy Grail so openly!"
Passers-by would naturally not notice that when the little phoenix flew back into George's body, the activity of the magic circuit in George's body instantly increased by 50%. Every time his heartbeat pulsed, the power of destroying heaven and earth seemed to emerge from his body!
Of course, this explosive activity enhancement was not permanent. After only lasting for a short time, the magic power in George's body calmed down again. But even so, this explosive feeling was deeply imprinted on George. In his mind, as long as George is willing, he can restart this feeling of energy explosion again!
In fact, what George just realized is the unique blessing of the Holy Grail of Chaos, and its skill is called "Mana Burning".
Corresponding to the six major camps, the gods have given this continent a total of six Holy Grails, namely the Holy Grail of Order, the Holy Grail of Chaos, the Holy Grail of Life, the Holy Grail of Death, the Holy Grail of Nature, and the Holy Grail of Strength. In the city blessed by the Holy Grail, anyone who can see the Holy Grail with their own eyes Anyone can receive a permanent blessing from the Holy Grail.
Some people have improved their basic abilities, some have learned auxiliary skills, and some have learned offensive spells. The physiques of people cannot be generalized. Depending on their personal qualifications and the degree of synergy between their personal power and the power of the Holy Grail, each person will receive different blessings.
By the way, with the Phoenix mutated blood obtained from Atom and the blessing of Hathor's Phoenix War Song, George, who has double bonuses, has an unparalleled fit between his power and the Holy Grail of Chaos! Therefore, the skill "Mana Burning" obtained by George is completely the most top-level blessing!
Even, until much later, a chance
, George was able to learn that throughout the history of the continent of Exos, there was only one human being who had the same skills as him, and this human being, in George's lost memory, had a relationship with that person - —
The strongest human being in history, Old Jack!
George, who does not know the above information at this stage, has only one thought in his mind at this moment:
It's worth the trip!
George, who was in a happy mood, hummed a tune and simply handed over the task of searching for Gul'dan's information to the pirates who were idle on the deck. He himself waved and stopped on the main street. Got a yellow leather covered wagon——
The history of the yellow leather covered wagon is very long, and it can almost take a day and night to talk about it from its origin. However, if you want to sum it up in a nutshell, this kind of covered wagon is just another world's version of a taxi.
"Take me, veteran driver. I want to exchange the stationery on hand for some money."
While saying this, George tossed a silver coin to the driver as a tip.
"Okay, the boss is great, and the boss is in good health!"
