The buildings here are strange in the eyes of the locals like Princess Magdal, Huang Huo, Fang Qi, and even the prime minister's daughter. To say that these buildings are simple-but they often have complex geometric curves, and The surface material is not metal, crystal or glass—although most of the metal pillars and frame structures are mostly burnt in flames and appear to be scorched and there are signs of melting. The glass and crystal are broken and scattered everywhere. , The roads in the city were covered with dust, forming a gray world in them.
It was as if the domain of the Grey Sword Saint Mephistopheles was unfolding.
But to say that these buildings are luxurious, they are so simple, they do not have the complicated and changeable lines of human religious buildings, no pointed vaults, no complicated decorations; no elves hollowed out courtyards, and complicated patterns. Arched windows and various pavilions and gardens; there are not so many dazzling pillars, stone statues and carvings as dwarf buildings-these buildings are only composed of simple geometric shapes and changeable planes, and they are concise Powerful, but without losing imagination.
Everyone was stunned, as if they were in a different world, so that they didn't even notice that their captain seemed a little familiar here.
Princess Magdal was studying the ground-the ground was also covered with metal. She wiped it lightly with her fingers, and the gray light on the metal became brighter: "Mythril!" She exclaimed, showing incredible shock. Look at it.
This discovery caused a sensation among others, because this entire street, to be precise, most of the buildings in this city, are paved with the same metal.
A city built by Mithril.
Shocked gazes appeared in everyone's eyes, of course, a few of them also showed enthusiastic gazes. This includes Ling and the little dragon Aloz.
The elder sister of the pair of half-elf little sisters seemed to finally come alive at this time.
She asked her sister in a low voice, "Are these really Mithril, that kind of valuable metal?"
"Sister," Lian felt a little embarrassed about her sister's behavior of being obsessed with money: "Everyone is watching. Besides, if so much Mithril is brought back to our world, it will cause the price of Mithril to fluctuate. It may not be as we imagined. So valuable."
"What do you know," the former sneered at this: "Without money, how can we go back to Eruin next, and continue to look for mothers? There are so many mithril here, we can take some and it will be fine, as for price fluctuations It doesn’t matter, you just need to get rid of them before then.”
Brando heard the conversation between the sisters—it was not that he wanted to eavesdrop, but that the voices of the two sisters were too loud—he couldn't help being surprised by Ling's "professional vocabulary". It seemed that this little girl was not the first Do such a thing once.
But when he turned to look at the latter, the little girl immediately closed her mouth, showing an expression of indifference.
However, compared to the "reservation" of the little sisters, the little dragon Aloz obviously fell into a frenetic situation for a time. "So much!" Brando heard her exclaim in a strange tone, and she hurriedly He ran to the side and bit the metal post with his teeth-it should be a lamp post in Brando's view.
"This is not Mithril!" Little Mother Dragon screamed: "This is not Mithril at all!"
As the “experts of wealth collection”, the dragon clan—especially the female dragon’s identification result caused a commotion among others. “How come,” Princess Magdal was not surprised: “This kind of lightweight metal is so hard and so good. The magic conduction ability and luminosity of this is obviously Mithril."
"This is not Mithril," Aloz was so sad that tears were almost streaming out: "Mithril is sweet, this thing doesn't taste right."
Brando, who was observing a building in the distance, almost spit out blood when he heard the words of the little dragon. He thought that the emotional dragons were used to identify metals like this. He could fully imagine that, for the dragons, the higher the value. Metal-the better it tastes.
So gold is about chocolate flavor.
But he has already recognized the identity of this metal.
This is a titanium alloy.
The entire city uses a lot of titanium alloy structures, including laying the ground, it is obviously more than just a city. Brando had a faint feeling that this thing was more like a fortress.
It is too advanced.
Far beyond the era he knew.
He raised his head and stared at the gray sky, but he seemed to see the bright starry sky of Vaughan that summer night in the Butcher mountains. That night, he stared at the vast night sky in the same way, and asked himself:
Why did I come to this place
Is it a kind of mission given to him unconsciously
Tell him to save Eruin this country.
And at the moment.
The answer to this question seems to have multiple meanings.
He has a faint feeling that everything he seeks may be the ultimate answer in this city. He couldn't help but think: Maybe he came here not by accidental coincidence, but a secret choice.
But the problem is.
Who chose himself
When Brando was silent, Princess Magdal was obviously interested in the various symbols that appeared on the ground. As a representative public figure of the Temple of Flame, she has been to many states under Cruz’s rule, including Eruin, and even the small city states of Silver Bay. There is no “street” in any place. She seemed so novel.
The streets are filled with all kinds of symbols. What is their purpose? Is it a religious symbol? Or is it just an artistic painting
But she saw many repeated patterns, which made her doubt her judgment.
Her Royal Highness raised her head, just in time to see Brando walking through a street with ease, she couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Brando, what are the meanings of these symbols?"
Brando was thinking about his own problem. Hearing Magdal's question, he turned his head and glanced at what she was pointing at, and subconsciously replied, "That's the right line."
"What, what about this one?"
"zebra crossing."
"zebra crossing?"
Brando suddenly reacted: "Uh... probably, I just said nonsense."
"Mr. Brando..."
"I'm sorry, I just think the atmosphere is too heavy, I want to make a joke." Faced with the look of Princess Magdal's questioning, Brando couldn't help crying and laughing—as if he came to this place, the other half of his soul, then Began to become active.
What happened just now also caught him off guard.
Princess Magdal was stunned. Although she might think Brando’s words were suspicious, she couldn’t find anything wrong. She couldn’t help but think that she had too much heart. Indeed, the depressive atmosphere here is really unbearable. Some were suspicious.
After finally avoiding the nun princess's questioning, Brando finally breathed a sigh of relief, but when he turned his head, he saw that Aloz, who had turned back into a human form, was looking at him with a'treacherous' face.
"Humph."
"What are you doing?"
"This is the fortress of the Silver Plains. It is said that it is the birthplace of the rune dwarves. The knowledge about this place is all mystery. It is information that even the dragons and the Buga people have lost. How did you know it, smelly human "The little mother dragon was still holding a half of the lamppost in her hand, and said triumphantly: "Is it found from the pile of old papers of a certain mage?"
"I said, it's just casual." Brando replied grimly: "What are you doing with the lamppost, do you plan to use it as a weapon?"
"This is a lamppost?" The little mother Long gave him an ambiguous look: "So, I just want to take the dragon clan back to see if this thing is worth or not. Its physical properties are similar to Mithril, and it has the same. Good magical guidance, theoretically, it shouldn't be a simple metal."
"I just see it like it."
"Hehe, extraneous explanation, stinking human."
"you shut up."
Brando and Aloz entangled endlessly, but fortunately, this little female dragon didn't seem to intend to go deeper on this issue, but just complacent with his own judgment. It didn't take long before Huang Huo and Fang Qi found the traces left by Frofa and others.
It was a tall building—much taller and majestic than any human building in Warnd. In fact, before seeing such a city, it’s hard for others to believe that there can be buildings built like this in this world. A tall and straight place.
Of course, some of them may have seen Valhalla's World Tree, and still have fresh memories of that towering fortress. However, compared to the huge mountain-like tower in the center of the city, Valhalla's World Tree is nothing more than a shame.
Brando saw the corpse of a giant dragon on the building that Huanghuo discovered.
The latter crawled on the top of the building in the form of a dragon, with a huge spear inserted behind it. The spear nailed it to the glass and titanium alloy structure, with its head tilted to the side, apparently dead long ago. For a long time.
"This spear..."
Magdal stared at the dark red spear, somewhat solemnly: "This is the lava spear, this is the weapon of a high-level demon, this is the first time I have seen a real thing-strange, how can they beat themselves? "
"Don't underestimate the devil's madness," Aloz replied gritted his teeth: "It must be to swallow the spoils here, or to please the Dragon of Twilight. Damn it, Frofa is in danger."
With that, she wanted to chase in that direction.
But before he had time to do it, Brando pressed her shoulder: "Wait, something is wrong here." Brando sternly looked around and whispered a warning.
His voice just fell off.
There were rustling sounds from all over the quiet street, like countless insects crawling on the ground, coming from all directions.
