Chapter 19 Visitors!
Overseas Islands, Modo City.
A medium-sized merchant ship docked near the port, and then a group of sailors disembarked from the deck and swarmed towards the tavern in the port area. These men who have been wandering at sea all year round will inevitably have fun as long as they come to the shore. Many of them have spent their life savings on the tavern wandering warbler. After these sailors disembarked, a group of people wearing cloaks walked down in about a few minutes. The person in charge of spying in the port area of Moduo City observed it and quickly passed on the news.
There are many rogues in Mordor City.
However, there are very few cases of theft in Modo City, which has to be said to be a very strange thing.
Occasionally, there are foreign thieves who will be found by some "mysterious people" soon after committing crimes in Modo Port, and then they will be re-educated one by one, some of them will disappear, and the other side will suddenly become the secret sentry of Modo City.
"Looks like a wizard."
"Report it to the higher authorities, so as not to blame us for being unfavorable in supervision!"
Modo Port is a free port, which means that anyone can come, basically there are no restrictions, and there will be no checks on the origin of the accounts one by one. In this case, it is unavoidable that fish and dragons mix together, so Modo City needs a strong enough gray power to ensure the law and order here. However, this kind of freedom is limited to Modo Port. If you leave Modo Port and go to the city, the restrictions will start to increase. This is to prevent other people from infiltrating the interior of Modo City and causing some very troublesome things to Sauron.
It is not surprising that wizards visit.
The Northland Witch Council has recently set up a branch in Modo City, which is managed by a member of the Council who is close to the legendary level. The Outer Islands have specialties in the Outer Islands. Many spell-casting materials and mutated plants from marine life can always attract some wizards visit. During this period of time, the residents of Mordo Port have seen more wizards, and they have already become familiar with them, but they still have to maintain a proper awe. Even the most stalwart sailor will not easily provoke a mysterious wizard.
"teacher."
"Is this the Modo City? It is as prosperous as the legend says!"
A group of people quickly walked down the deck. One of the young men looked around in surprise, and said in a low voice: "Although it is still far behind the city of wizards, it is quite rare for a new city to develop to such a scale. .”
People are coming and going at the port, and various goods are piled up in warehouses.
Merchants gathered near the chamber of commerce to bargain, and next to it was the trainee priest of Ms. Fortune who was in charge of witnessing the transaction. Unless it is a transaction involving a relatively large amount of money, it is generally a pastor who will not disturb Ms. Fortune.
Modo City must have a trade of more than 10,000 Kindlers before the pastor is invited to come out as a witness.
The Ocean Temple is also very lively.
In front of the temple is a huge pool, which has been filled with all kinds of copper Dele and silver Dele, and occasionally you can see gold Dele one by one.
These were thrown in by believers who came to pray and fulfill their vows.
In the sunlight, the whole pool was shining with gold, but even the most daring thief would not dare to take even a single copper dele from it.
This is dedicated to temples and gods.
"Don't talk too much."
"Our trip is to check the reality of Modo City. I heard that golem puppets have been used on a large scale here. The senior leaders of the Wizards Union suspect that Modo City has mastered certain technologies from the Arcane Empire period."
"Our task is to determine that."
"If they really have such knowledge in their hands, maybe the senior leaders of the Wizards Union will consider some cooperation with Modo City."
The Wizarding League is high up.
They are stronger than the Northland Witch Council, and have inherited the core alchemy knowledge of [Arcane Puppet] and [Arcane Guardian]. This is an organization similar to the City of Knowledge, and rarely gets involved with the Church of the Gods. Regardless of the rise and fall of many kingdoms, what they are most interested in is to study the things of the Austrian Water Empire, and then try their best to explore the boundless sea of stars.
Astral exploration.
For thousands of years, most of the legendary wizards at the top of the Wizards Union have focused on this.
The wealth of the Wizarding Union is amazing!
But there is no way to estimate how many. It is not enough to describe the country as rich as the enemy, because at present they still master the most cutting-edge alchemy technology in the material plane. The City of Wizards is the only place in the entire material plane that regularly sells legendary equipment publicly. Although the value may be as high as the terrifying millions of Kindlers. In the last few hundred years, one of the most astonishing moves of the Wizarding Union is that they discovered an asteroid with a completely diamond interior in the sea of stars. The diameter was about three kilometers, and the high-level members of the Wizards Union teamed up to intercept the meteor with some magical means. Then send it back to the material plane.
The value of this meteor cannot be estimated. It is said that the diamonds inside have not been used up until now.
The arcane golem is an advanced version of the diamond golem, which requires a large amount of diamonds and high-purity crystals. The current research direction of the Wizards Union is similar to that of Modo City.
Synthetic diamonds.
Refining high-purity crystals.
Because the progress is relatively slow, many means of obtaining resources can only be transferred to the astral world.
Mage is always the most money-burning profession!
A group of people marched along Modo Port, they naturally had other means to avoid interrogation, and their fake identities were enough to deceive ordinary guards, and soon they set foot on the road to Modo City.
A paved road ten meters wide.
The roads in Modo City extend in all directions, and it took a lot of manpower to pave them. The cement roads have been successfully researched, but the production capacity problem has never been solved.
After all, there is still a difference between alchemy civilization and technological civilization, and the problems in production have already been exposed when studying fertilizers.
"I didn't expect the roads here to be built so well."
Another middle-aged man sighed, and said slowly: "I never imagined that this city built by pirates could do such a good job in urban planning."
The birth of Modo City was not good.
In the eyes of many established forces, Modo City has always been labeled as a "city built by pirates".
So no matter how rich Modo City is, many veteran nobles and forces think that Modo City is a chaotic place, and the city construction and planning must be messy, but it only grows because of the wealth of overseas trade.
Everything is just a castle in the air. If such a city loses its source of wealth, it will eventually collapse.
But everything they saw today completely subverted their previous understanding.
For the first time these people from the Sorcerer's City became aware of the entire Material Plane except the Sorcerer's City. There is also a city full of civilization.
civilization.
That's right!
In the eyes of the people of the city of wizards, many cities in the material plane are primitive, dirty, and ignorant.
drive!
A few carriages pulling goods came, and the driver walked forward, a bearded businessman was sitting on the side, and when he passed by these people, he just said, "Huh?"
"What about the mountain to the north?"
"When I went up to run the Eastern route, wasn't that mountain still there? Why is that mountain gone now?"
Hear the words of this middle-aged businessman.
The driver who was driving slowed down a little. Stretching out his finger to the flat land to the north, he said in a voice full of awe: "That mountain was still there a few months ago!"
"But I heard that the mountain blocked the planning of the city hall."
"Then the higher-ups sent people down to flatten it. At that time, those foremen were stumped. How could a mountain be bulldozed?"
"no way."
"They can only try to use gunpowder to explode, but the speed is too slow."
"Later, it seemed that the city hall thought they were doing too slowly, and tried to find a way to hire the mysterious master wizard. I heard that the master wizard used a spell called 'fossil into mud' to bulldoze the mountain. "
"Only a week or so."
"The entire hill has been bulldozed, and now there is a rumor that a workshop will be built."
"It's not just this mountain."
"The more than a dozen hills near Modo City have almost been flattened. You probably haven't come back for a long time. Recently, the city hall has mobilized a lot of golems."
"That stuff is amazing!"
"Thousands and thousands of pounds. They move with such ease and strength that it's frightening!"
"I heard that this thing is more powerful than the guard."
The groom who was driving the carriage was spitting all over the place, and the businessman next to him was also speechless from ear to ear. It took nearly half a year to go back and forth on the eastern route. After returning to Modo City after half a year, everything he saw gave him amazing changes.
The convoy quickly overtook the group.
But after these businessmen left. A group of people from the Wizarding Union had solemn expressions. The elder at the head pondered for a moment and murmured, "Moduo City actually has such an ability?!"
"It looks like we still underestimated them too much."
Move mountains and fill seas.
With the level of civilization on the material plane back then, it was no joke to do this easily.
at this time.
One of the handsome-looking men suddenly said: "Teacher, I noticed it when I first came to Modo City. It's just that I haven't been sure."
"However, after listening to what they said just now, I am somewhat sure of my discovery!"
The status of this man does not seem to be low. Hearing his words, the others listened carefully, but the man looked around and said slowly, "Have you noticed that the energy fluctuations here are a bit special?"
"It seems to be on a strange frequency! And the flattened mountain they pointed out earlier is actually a nearby ley line node!"
Hear him. The elder at the head frowned and pondered, and after a long time, he said solemnly: "You mean?"
"Moduo City is setting up a big magic circle?"
The handsome man smiled and shook his head.
The others were puzzled when they heard the words, as if they didn't quite understand.
"No!"
At this time, the man just said in a serious voice: "The whole Modo Island is a big formation!!!"
The voice just fell.
All the people present showed horror!
The elder in the lead slowly spit out two words: "Miss-lock!..."
