In the middle carriage, there were many accompanying personnel and uniformed law enforcers in the front and rear carriages. After all, Lu Wu's identity was different, and this trip to the Alchemy City was also similar to a friendly diplomacy between China and the Holy Land Alchemy City.
Because Alchemy City is about to take off and become the second sky city in the world, although it is far less influential and shocking than the launch of White Harbor City, it has also attracted attention from countries all over the world. At the same time, the lord of Alchemy City, John Vogel, invited countries to witness the launch ceremony of Sky Alchemy City, so Lu Wu made this trip.
However, normally for matters like this it would be enough to send someone else, without alerting the existence of Lu Wu's class. But this time Lu Wu personally requested to go to the Alchemy City, hoping to use this ceremony to reach some kind of agreement with the Alchemy City and John Vogel.
Lu Wu hopes that after the Alchemy City is transformed into the Sky Alchemy City, it will be able to assist China and himself in building the first immigrant city in the City of Mars. With China's profound heritage and huge population, plus the carrying capacity of the Sky Alchemy City, his chances of winning will be the greatest among all.
However, when Lu Wu proposed this idea, many people also raised objections. After all, the other party was one of his competitors. If there was such an opportunity, why didn't he fight for the Lord of Mars himself, but instead helped him
"Martial Ancestor! Why should we seek the help of John Vogel, the God of Alchemy? Logically speaking, he is also one of the people who are going to open a dojo outside the domain? Why should he help us?"
A middle-aged man in his fifties with the Investigation Bureau logo on his cuffs was flipping through the documents carefully and cautiously, and asked the same question. He was arranged to be Lu Wu's deputy on a mission to the Alchemy City, but he was temporarily assigned to be responsible for coordination work and was still unaware of many situations.
A female train attendant lit a stick of incense in the carriage, and the entire carriage was suddenly filled with the aura of the Lingshan Taoist Palace in the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Lu Wu looked at the rolling sea of clouds and the endless refracted sunlight outside the train window, and on the way he talked about their work: "The God of Alchemy John Vogel is different from us. We hope to compete for the Lord of Mars because it is the most suitable star in the solar system to open up a new world. It will greatly increase our influence on human civilization and the future era of extraterritorial cultivation."
"But John Vogel is an alchemist who pursues the ultimate alchemy. He doesn't care about civilization, influence, or the Earth or humans. He doesn't have the desire of many immortals and gods to open up a new world and become a Taoist god emperor."
Lu Wu seemed to know and understand the alchemist's thoughts and everything about him. He turned around and said, "So for him, he does want to leave the Earth and go outside the domain, but for him, anywhere is fine. He even doesn't want to be too close to the Earth because it is too concerned about the great god Hou Tu Tianzun."
The deputy nodded. "So that's how it is. Then we may be able to convince the God of Alchemy, John Vogel, to reach an agreement with us. After all, although Alchemy City has the highest alchemy in the world, it still lacks the foundation to open up new worlds and interstellar migration. This is not something that can be achieved by relying on alchemy and Sky Alchemy City alone."
"Whether it is the large number of gods needed to open up a new world, or the sacred trees of the lowest level of immortal roots, or the large population of practitioners, or the support and connections of the heavenly court, etc., the God of Alchemy John Vogel does not have it."
"If it weren't for the Emperor Tianguan, John Fogel would not have been able to open up a new world on the moon even if he owned the city of White Harbor."
Lu Wu: "But the advantages of Sky Alchemy City are currently unavailable on the entire Earth."
The deputy stood up and said, "I understand. I will do a good job in this regard and submit the best plan to you."
After communicating with his deputy, Lu Wu stopped talking about this matter and asked directly: "How long will it take to reach the Alchemy City?"
The deputy checked his watch: "About an hour!"
Before the great era of spiritual practice arrived, it was hard to imagine looking up and seeing a train passing above the sea of clouds, and it was also hard to feel the feeling of taking a train directly into the sky and arriving in another continent or country.
But after the arrival of the great era of cultivation, this situation has become extremely common. In the sky, not only can one see intercontinental sky trains, but also airships, flying swords, magic carpets and escape lights. Even in some cities of cultivation, if you don't have a good sword-wielding skill or escape technique, you can't even be a law enforcer.
After all, some petty lawbreakers can be directly controlled by the large formation to lock the area, and they can be directly arrested in the forbidden magic field. Generally, law enforcement officers are needed for some more difficult practitioners. However, such practitioners usually go through multiple reviews before entering the city of practice, and are highly concerned. Such cases are generally rare. Even if there is any conflict, most people are unwilling to take action in the city of practice, because once they take action, they will be immediately locked by the large formation and the gods. No matter how strong they are, they will end up being trapped in a jar.
Flying seems to have become a basic skill for practicing civilization.
The situation is even more exaggerated near the Alchemy City. The sea of clouds above the sky is even condensed by magic into a hollow substance similar to a balloon, which is built into a station. The station sign can even be seen above the clouds.
The clouds formed tracks, and all kinds of flying vehicles and people of all sizes passed on them. Law enforcement officers wearing flying suits maintained traffic order near the entire Alchemy City.
Above the nearby natural and artificial islands, flashing lights kept rushing up into the sky. Lu Wu also saw a child riding a broom spinning around outside the car window, sticking out his tongue at him, as if showing off his flying skills.
But the child probably didn't know that the object of his tongue was a god, the former fifteenth king of White Harbor.
The sky train passed through the rune dome of the Alchemy City. The demon puppet Jonah Vogel personally greeted Lu Wu in front of the station and said that the God of Alchemy John Vogel was meeting with ambassadors from various countries and could not come to greet Lu Wu in person. Lu Wu also expressed his understanding.
Lu Wu also put down his airs in front of this person: "I didn't expect you to come to pick me up in person! You and I are of similar seniority, Mr. Jonah Fogel! You don't have to be too restrained. I once saw you in the Mountain and Sea Realm. At that time, you were already an excellent alchemist. At the Sanyang Temple Conference in Weigang City, you followed the God of Alchemy. The God of Alchemy discussed with the Heavenly Official Emperor Fang Xiu and the Earthly Official Emperor Jia Yi, and I could only sit below at that time."
Jonah Fogel touched his head and said, "Really? It's a pity that I have forgotten it. However, I was able to participate in such a top practitioner conference only because I followed my teacher, while Wu Zu relied on his own strength to reach the top of the world."
Lu Wu: "The way of ghost immortals is to return to one after nine lives. One day you will remember everything and return to your original appearance!"
The two talked about many things, and the atmosphere seemed very good. After all, it was difficult for Lu Wu to meet practitioners of the same generation with whom he could speak freely in the world now.
Afterwards, the special train that had been suspended started to depart from the station again, following the Alchemy City track to the floating tower in the central area.
The entire Sky Alchemy City is about to take off. Countless alchemical golems, mechanical puppets and golden strongmen can be seen walking and shuttling through the streets and alleys. The metal ground is being dug up, and the energy network that has been widened and expanded is displayed in front of you. Nearly a thousand mechanical puppets are rapidly filling up the huge pit.
Alchemy golems as tall as more than ten meters passed by carrying various energy pipes. The weapon refiners, alchemists, and alchemists of the entire Sky Alchemy City seemed to have moved, checking and reviewing the cornerstone work of the entire Sky Alchemy City, ensuring that the central core energy of the Sky City could penetrate every part of the Alchemy City and that the entire huge alchemy combination array could be put into operation.
When passing through the central area, the dense steel tracks crisscrossing the sky and the workshop mechanical towers emitting steam and magical light also shocked Lu Wu slightly.
Each workshop mechanical tower is like a mountain with no visible top. Various rail cars can be seen constantly passing through the criss-crossing steel tracks, and densely packed alchemy puppets go in and out, like a screw in this steel city.
When passing through a clock tower building in mid-air, the demon puppet suddenly pointed to the bottom. Looking down along the densely packed tracks, the unsealed energy core at the deepest part of the abyss appeared in front of everyone like a small sun.
"Mr. Lu Wu! That is the core power of the Sky City, the most powerful power system in the world, a divine energy core that integrates the myth power system, the floating system, and the faith power collection system!"
"The Alchemy City has gathered elite alchemists, weapon refiners, and alchemists from all over the world to work together. They started preparing many years ago and built a perfect energy system under the floating tower. It was not until they obtained the Sky Sword that they created this energy core recently."
Lu Wu looked down and could see the intense light of the incense and the scorching sun shining out. The other people on the train all felt a warmth in their souls. Seeing the vast ocean of power of faith, they felt as if they had fallen into a sea of souls and were unable to escape.
The train passed by and we finally saw the floating tower in the distance.
The energy core that originally supported the entire White Harbor Sky City, the artifact Sky Sword is now located at the bottom of the floating tower in the Alchemy City. In the center of the floating tower, the Heavenly Stone, which is like a small hill, shines with brilliant light.
As long as the energy runs through the entire floating city and the Heavenly Stone, this alchemy city that was originally only able to stay on the sea surface will be able to float into the sky and turn into a sky city, a mythical capital.
