Most of the houses here are wooden structures, with roofs covered with thick reeds or wormwood, but the walls look very transparent, and some even look like simple rain shelters.
These houses are built around a stone platform, based on wooden piles driven into the river bottom, and are staggered next to each other, and then connected by wooden plank bridges. Canoes or boats are parked next to many houses as a means of transportation.
The three of them walked through one platform after another and headed towards the central area of the city. It felt a bit inconvenient to move around here. The connections between the various platforms were complicated, and there were always twists and turns.
When they just came out of the teleportation station, they saw a ball of fire dancing in the sky under the hazy rain curtain. When they got closer, they saw clearly that it was a huge pyramid-shaped building, and the fire was on the top of the tower. There is a blazing fire under the stone pavilion, like a beacon, telling everyone where the heart of this city lies.
The pyramid is divided into five levels, with a height of at least thirty feet. It looks simple, heavy, and quite majestic.
The three of them arrived at the foot of the pyramid, and then looked at a tall bald man with some confusion, holding a long metal staff with a fan-shaped head, slowly walking down the stone steps of the pyramid.
It's just that this slowness seems a bit weird on this rainy day.
Mo Bei looked up at the sky, thinking that it was not a thunderstorm. . .
Instinctively, he didn't want to talk to this strange man, but when the bald man was about to descend to the ground, he still took a few steps forward, saluted and said:
"Is this Elder Omas? My name is Mo Bei, and they are my teammates, Milor, and Perona. I send my greetings to you!"
Only then did he realize that this man was a full head taller than him, nearly two meters tall, with a darker complexion, and his upper body was naked, but he had a big red collar hanging on his shoulders.
The long staff was much taller than him. The head of the staff was actually a strangely shaped human head with a fan-shaped headdress, which looked quite heavy.
Although they look very different, they are like ordinary residents, letting the rain hit their bodies and flow down their brown skin.
Anyway, the whole person is weird from top to bottom.
"Yes, you are talking to Omus. He is very happy to see you coming."
The bald man replied in a low voice with an expressionless expression.
"...Him?" Mo Bei felt a little confused.
"It is Omus. He has heard about your deeds from Elder Kane, brave adventurers."
The bald man's expression remained unchanged and he spoke again.
Mo BeiJi tried hard not to look strange, but he was complaining in his heart.
Someone who has not been schizophrenic for more than ten years would not talk like this, right?
Aren’t you going to treat it?
I've seen people bring salt to themselves, and I've seen people call them crazy for themselves, but I've never seen anyone act as a narrator for themselves.
And you don’t look very happy no matter how you look like this, okay? . .
He strongly wanted to end the conversation quickly, so he asked directly:
"Then may I ask, where is Elder Kane now?"
"You should find the learned wise man there."
Omus slowly raised his hand and pointed the three people's eyes towards the stone building complex that was as primitive as the pyramid, and was obviously a product of the same era.
The three of them thanked them, saluted again, and walked towards the building complex.
Omus, on the other hand, stood motionless in the rain, like a sculpture, causing the three people who accidentally looked back to see this scene to look at each other in confusion.
In the center of the stone building complex is a temple-like building supported only by a circle of tall stone pillars. In the era when the Zakarum doctrine was extremely popular, such buildings were almost everywhere, but now they have lost the meaning they were given when they were built. .
Kane was sitting on a stone bench with several others, seeming to be discussing something, but seemed to have fallen into some kind of helpless situation, and everyone seemed a little silent.
After noticing the arrival of Mo Bei and the others, he waved to them.
Upon seeing this, the other people stood up and prepared to end the conversation and leave first.
A woman with a strong figure and short shoulder-length brown hair looked at the three of them, and then said to Mo Bei:
"Your Excellency, you are the new Grand Duke of Lu Gaoyin, right? You are indeed too young to be true. I am Asira, commanding the Iron Wolves of Kurast, subordinate to Emperor Hakan. On behalf of the Kingdom of Kejistan, I welcome you. s arrival!"
"Hello Senior Asila, just think that I am Teacher Kasha's student here."
Mo Bei responded humbly, looking straight at the other person without daring to move at all.
Because not only was the other person's figure extremely proud, but he was also very sparingly dressed, almost only covering his key parts, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
But the aura exuded by the leader of the Iron Wolf Guards is as sharp as a steel sword array, so even though his clothing style is extremely unrestrained, it is difficult for people to have any dirty thoughts.
When Asila heard this, a smile appeared on her originally stern face.
If Mo Bei talked to her as the Grand Duke under Lu Gaoyin, she would have to treat him respectfully. But Mo Bei called himself a junior, which made her feel much more comfortable.
She didn't say anything else, nodded to Mo Bei, then walked away ahead of the others, showing her resolute personality.
As for the other people, they either greeted Mo Bei politely, or they didn't say anything at all.
After all, Mo Bei and the others are just job transferees who have just come from Lu Gaoyin. Although their status is relatively special, for these preoccupied people, there is really no time to be too polite at the moment.
"When did you arrive? Have you settled down?" Kane put away the sad look on his face and asked the three of them.
He teleported here seven days ago, which made Zhuo Genan so depressed that he could only stop the breeding work and return to the Mages Guild to work honestly.
"They just arrived and came right over. Are they the managers of this city?"
Mo Bei pointed at the retreating figures of those people and asked.
"Well, yes, they have always been responsible for ensuring the defense of Kurast Port and the supply of various materials." Kane nodded.
"Then, what about Elder Omas? Why is he outside in the rain alone?"
"Oh, you have already met him." Kane chuckled and continued:
"Speaking of which, he is the real guardian of this city and controls the operation of the formation tower. And that formation tower is the strongest defense method for the main part of the entire city."
"Array tower? That's the one..." Mo Bei said and made a triangle shape with his hand. He felt very curious and didn't know how the pyramid was defended.
At this time, he was also in awe of the weird Omus, and had a completely different understanding.
Being a guardian is not something that makes people excited. Not everyone can bear the loneliness and pressure of guarding around the clock.
Mo Bei felt ashamed of his previous slander.
People's schizophrenia is caused by work-related injuries. .
"That's right, Heratli and many people worked together to build a powerful array inside the tower. It can deploy an isolation barrier in critical moments, allowing other job transferees time to mobilize defenses. This is comparable to the strongest The city wall is much more effective." Kane explained, then said with a worried look:
"It's a pity that the power of this magic circle is rapidly declining and it won't last long..."
