In the distance, against the backdrop of dense woods, a bluestone city looms, like a giant beast crawling in the forest.
This is not the largest city that Gray has ever seen, but it is the city with the highest level of rune utilization that Gray has ever seen.
The surface of the city wall is full of complicated patterns, densely packed like decoration, but it is definitely not decoration. It is a large rune array with some kind of effect.
Fixed at regular intervals on the city wall is something that looks like a crossbow but is obviously different from a crossbow. It is larger than an ordinary crossbow and has rune patterns on its surface. This should be a rune weapon.
Some buildings in the city that are taller than the city walls have exposed spires. On the spires, there are rune lights of various colors. These rune lights should light up at night, dispelling the darkness of the city and highlighting the extraordinaryness of these buildings.
At the entrance of the city gate, you can see some carriages coming in and out from time to time. These carriage carriages all have rune patterns on them. The only difference is the complexity of the rune patterns.
Gray even saw a carriage suspended in the air twenty or thirty centimeters above the ground. There should be some kind of floating formation pattern among the formations on the surface of the carriage.
Suspended in the air, there are no wheels in contact with the ground, and there will naturally be no bumps. The traveling process will be very smooth. Such a carriage is obviously more comfortable than a carriage that relies on wheels to run on the ground.
Entering the city, Gray was even more certain that the runes had been used in all aspects of life.
At regular intervals along the roadside, there are rune lights hanging on metal poles as tall as a person.
In addition, the surfaces of the buildings on both sides of the road also have more or less rune patterns.
The complexity of the runes depends on the exquisiteness of the building. The more exquisite the building, the more complex the runes are, and the more common the runes are, the simpler the runes are.
This is a city with a high degree of rune culture, and runes have been used in every aspect of life.
"Sir Gray, please get on the carriage!"
The Almonds hired three carriages at the gate of the city. They politely led Gray into the first carriage and headed towards the city.
As soon as he entered the carriage, the heat disappeared and coolness followed. The rune array on the surface of the carriage should be a rune array that can control the temperature.
Finally, the carriage stopped in front of a large mansion in the center of the city. In a city where the strongest person is Magic Light, as a family with king-level warriors, the Bilan family should have a high status in this city. Not low.
Someone had already come out of the mansion. The leader was a middle-aged woman, Edmund's wife. Under the introduction of Anmond's father and daughter, Gray was warmly welcomed into the mansion. From then on, Gray Lived temporarily with the Bilan family.
A few days later, the Bilan family library.
"Forbidden Forest is really an apt name!"
The text in the original world is the same as the text in the empire period, which once again proves that the former empire and the original world are connected.
By looking through the books in the Bilan family's library, Gray learned what kind of forest he had lived in for more than half a year.
Its name is the Forbidden Forest. Just by hearing the name, you can already guess the danger of this forest, and this is also true. Gray is fully aware of the danger of this forest.
Not only are there disaster-level blood beasts, but there are also blood beasts that are more dangerous than disaster-level blood beasts. Even with all the means, he has to be careful in this forest. One can imagine the danger of this forest. .
Through the Bilan family's collection of books, Gray has a clearer understanding of the dangers of the Forbidden Forest. He is even a little lucky that the place he has been wandering in for more than half a year is not the depths of the Forbidden Forest.
According to the introduction in the book, deep in the Forbidden Forest there are rule-level blood beasts whose combat power is comparable to that of rule-level warriors.
If in the plane, the magic light level powerhouses are the well-deserved strongest, then in the original world, the rule-level powerhouses are also the well-deserved strongest ones. They are called both the most powerful and the strongest. As a saint, he possesses the most powerful power in the original world.
A rule-level blood beast that is comparable to a rule-level powerhouse. It is obvious that such a blood beast is powerful. The most terrifying thing is that such a blood beast also possesses rule abilities, and rule abilities have always been known for their power and mystery.
If he really entered the depths of the forbidden forest, no matter how careful he was, with his current strength, he would probably die.
“We’ve almost understood it, it’s time to carefully consider our future plans!”
Gray closed the book and put it back in its place, lost in thought.
After a few days of reading books, Gray had a general understanding of the original world and where he was now. Gray felt it was time to consider his future plans.
He has only one purpose in coming to the original world, and that is to use the cultivation conditions of the original world to make his cultivation speed faster and have the strength to compete with the Temple of Light as soon as possible, and his plan is naturally based on this. proceed with the goal.
"We should find a place to settle down temporarily."
If he is on a journey, it will more or less affect his practice, so Gray prefers to settle down somewhere and practice with peace of mind. With his secondary transformation ability, as long as he practices with peace of mind, his strength will definitely improve quickly.
"The threat of the Temple of Light must also be considered. Fortunately, the transmission distance of the random teleportation ball is beyond imagination, and it is no longer within the sphere of influence of the Temple of Light."
Gray's appearance has been seen by the Saint of the Temple of Light, so he must be careful not to be discovered by the Temple of Light.
Fortunately, the distance that the random teleportation ball can travel is unexpectedly far. The place he is now is called the Chaos Territory, and the strongest force is a force called the Chaos Temple. Obviously this is not from the Temple of Light. sphere of influence.
Since he is not within the sphere of influence of the Temple of Light, the possibility of being discovered by the Temple of Light is much smaller. After all, no force would want other forces to exist within its sphere of influence.
"Cultivation does not have many requirements for the environment. It can be done anywhere, but in principle, it is best to be close to a large forest."
Gray's abilities are inseparable from the blood of blood beasts. Blood beast blood is essential for his growth, and the forest is a treasure trove of blood of all kinds of blood beasts, so it is best to settle in a city close to the forest.
"Manwell City is really a good choice!"
Gray couldn't help but seriously consider the feasibility of settling in Manwell City.
The fact that Manwell City is close to the forest is obviously very suitable, and the forest near Manwell City is very extraordinary. There are even blood beasts at the regular level. It can be imagined that the blood beast resources are rich.
The most important thing is that there is no threat to his existence in the city of Manville. If he is targeted by the family in charge of the city for some reason, it is enough to deal with it.
From these two points of view, Manville City is an ideal city for him to settle down.
"Have a look around the city before making a decision."
In the end, Gray was still undecided. He decided to walk around the city and inspect the city before making a decision. He could also take this opportunity to find a suitable place to live in the city.
The residence must be purchased. He cannot live in the Bilan family forever. He has too many secrets. If he lives in the Bilan family for a long time, it will be too inconvenient, and it is very likely that his secrets will be exposed.
With an idea in mind, Gray left the Bilan family's library, spoke to the servants of the Milan family, and walked outside the Bilan family.
"Sir Gray, why don't you let me be your guide?"
Knowing that Gray was going out, Kensa rushed over.
The hem of her skirt only covered her knees. According to this world's concept, the purple lace skirt could already be called a short skirt, revealing a pair of slender white legs, and her straight figure was wrapped by this skirt. , ready to come out.
Her beautiful face was covered with light makeup, making her already beautiful face look even more beautiful, but there was a trace of tiredness on her face, as if she had not had a good rest in the past few days.
"I'm sorry, because of the previous casualties, my father and I have been comforting the families of the casualties these past few days, and we have neglected you!"
Kensa looked apologetic.
"Miss Kensa doesn't have to be like this. It's reasonable for the Bilan family to be very busy after something like that happened. Miss Kensa should pay more attention to rest."
Gray shook his head and said.
Riding in the Bilan family's carriage, Gray and Kensha left the Bilan family's residence and appeared on the street outside, walking slowly along the street.
The carriage was suspended twenty or thirty centimeters above the ground, traveling without any bumps. The temperature rune array kept the interior cool at all times. Gray opened the window and looked at the scenery and buildings along the way.
He saw carriages in different costumes passing by.
I saw people wearing ordinary clothes walking in the hot weather. They had sweat on their foreheads and walked quickly with their heads lowered under the scorching sun.
The disparity between rich and poor that exists everywhere is evidently the same here.
I also saw various shops on the roadside, including fruits, meat, and leather, with many varieties.
"Which store is it?"
Suddenly, Gray's eyes saw a three-story building built with a jade material, like a jade-carved building.
This is a very luxurious building. Gray couldn't help but become interested and asked Kensa next to him.
"That is the largest blood beast purchasing and sales office in Manwell City. Mr. Gray, would you like to go in and have a look?"
Seeing that Gray seemed to have some interest in this store, Kensa smiled.
"That's fine."
Gray would be very interested in anything related to the blood of blood beasts. Knowing that this was a store that sold and purchased blood, Gray was naturally very interested.
The carriage was parked in the square outside the store. There were many people who parked the carriage here like them, but the grade was a little worse than that of the Bilan family. After all, the Bilan family was a family with a king-level seat, so the grade of the carriage was naturally not the same. Low.
However, among the carriages parked here, there was a carriage that was not inferior to theirs. Seeing the clan emblem on this carriage, Kensha frowned slightly, but seeing that Gray was very interested, she had no choice but to Leading Gray into the store.
