Chapter 739 City of Miracles
Lin Li took his undead servants and walked on the empty streets. While following the instructions on the map, he marveled at the scale of the city in the sky. If it were not for in-depth research on the Sky City, it would be impossible to imagine how horrifying the construction cost of the Sky City was. Even the high elves, who were at their peak, spent all their money to build seven cities in the sky.
You know, at that time, the high elves ruled the entire Anriel continent, not so much with the power of the entire clan, but more with the power of the entire Anriel continent.
Not to mention the precious building materials of each tenon, the value is simply incalculable. The remains of the Dragon of Destruction alone are already priceless treasures. And when Lin Li got the map, he made an astonishing discovery. The streets and the thirty-six towers scattered around formed a huge conquering demon that would kill at least hundreds of giant dragons. This alone was enough to show that. , the construction cost of this sky city is astonishing.
However, there are countless legends about the Sky City in the world of Anriel, but few people know what the source of power of the Sky City is. What can support such a huge city across the sky, and even be able to travel through the turbulence of time and space. And even Apophis and the others, who had personally experienced the war, may not be very clear about this.
In the more than 1,300 years since the Dark Ages, there have been many legends about the City in the Sky, and of course there have been many speculations about the source of power. Some people speculated that it was the magic crystal of an ancient dragon, some speculated that it was controlled by the ancient demon god, and some even speculated that the high elves once captured the Pantheon and plundered countless titan heroes...
In short, there were various speculations, but Lin Li knew that none of them were really close to the truth. "Perhaps, only Gresco" is the only human being who knows the truth about the Sky City. Because during the war that year, Gresco personally boarded the Sky City and killed the High Elf Queen under the World Tree.
Well, Lin Li, who has read the Book of Eternity, can barely be considered one...
However, no matter how much information he had studied before and how deep his understanding of the City in the Sky was, Lin Li still couldn't suppress the shock in his heart when he was actually in this majestic and miraculous city.
This was the dark age, the nightmare in the hearts of all the once-dominated races. The city in the sky, which is said to never fall, helped the high elves suppress many resistances during those long and dark years, and caused many heroes of all races to die with hatred.
Although at the end of the Dark Ages, during the resistance war led by the mage god Gresko, the Sky City, which was said to never fall, was destroyed one after another, but this did not damage the majesty of the Sky City at all. On the contrary, after that war, People now know more about the power of the Sky City and what an unbearable and painful price they will pay if they want to fight against it.
If Gresco hadn't happened to break through the realm again and his strength would increase greatly, if the dwarves hadn't created the long-lost Sky Splitter, the resistance war that swept across the entire Anriel continent would have only been carried out in the mighty sky. The suppression of the city ended tragically, and the various resisting races will once again face the more bloody extermination of the high elves.
However, while people fear and hate the City in the Sky, they also inevitably yearn for it, yearning for the legend that stretches across the sky, and yearning for the domineering power that will never fall. Even those who once destroyed the City in the Sky with their own hands Gresco also had a very high opinion of Castle in the Sky in the Book of Eternity.
Lin Li's steps were very slow, and his eyes kept scanning both sides of the street. His eyes were full of appreciation for this great city of miracles. He had not experienced the war at the end of the Dark Ages, and had not witnessed the amazing scene in the Sky City with his own eyes. The powerful power of people's despair, but by observing this city in the sky at this moment, we can also roughly imagine what this city in the sky will be like when it is powerful. The construction of the "city in the sky" is not just about various people. The stacking of precious materials and the various techniques used in it, even Lin Li, a freak with master-level attainments in all aspects, can't help but be amazed. The wisdom of the high elves is perfectly displayed in this city." Whether it is magic patterns, alchemy circles, or remote magic institutions, whether it is in the Dark Ages or after the end of the Dark Ages, more than 1,300 Today, it can be called a very representative pinnacle work.
It has to be said that although the war at the end of the Dark Ages brought the long-desired "freedom" to humans and other races, it also caused many skills to be severely damaged during the war. It has been a long time since humans have had a grandmaster-level figure. Even the Pharmacist Guild, which has a certain status in the world of Anriel, can only rely on a few pharmacy masters to support it. And Master Ming Mok, who was originally sent by the Supreme Council to draw Mowen for the Tower of Twilight, was just a master. But he holds a very high status in the Supreme Council. , However, even those masters, there is an absolute gap in their real strength compared to the masters in the dark ages. Does formulating a master-level potion and drawing a master-level Mowen really mean that one is a master? In addition to these, there are many skills that have even completely disappeared. It is difficult to find even apprentices, let alone masters.
Walking slowly along the empty streets, Lin Li and others seemed to be going in the opposite direction from their destination, the tall tower in the heart of the Sky City. Although the two undead servants were puzzled, they followed behind them quietly, adhering to their duties as servants. If you weren't someone who had an in-depth study of magic patterns, you would definitely laugh at the high elves' urban design. It was simply terrible. They are obviously not far apart, but they have to go around in a circle and design the streets of a city like a maze. Can they stop intruders? However, Lin Li knew clearly that the design of the Sky City was one of the important reasons why it was said to never fall.
When he got the drawing of the Sky City, Lin Li vaguely made a terrifying guess from the winding street design. And now I am truly immersed in it" further confirmed his guess. These winding streets and the towers scattered around constitute a huge demon with terrifying power, the Conquering Demon Pattern. Even if this Conquering Demon , may have not been activated for more than 1,300 years, but the solid and powerful aura still fills the streets and alleys here, making people's hair stand on end and trembling with fear.
In the world of Anriel, probably no one knows the horror of conquering the magic pattern better than Lin Li. Even at the master-level magic pattern, the conquering demon is definitely a kind of magic at its peak. In today's Anriel world, let alone being able to actually draw the Conquering Demon Pattern, it is not certain whether anyone can recognize it.
However, even though Lin Li not only knew and mastered the painting of Conquering Mowen, he had never dared to imagine painting such a huge Conquering Mowen in a city. To conquer Mowen on such a huge scale, only the dragon's blood as the drawing material would require the slaughter of at least hundreds of dragons to complete.
Indeed, only a madman can design such a city, but this madman is definitely a genius madman full of fantastic ideas. You know, when the Conquering Demon Pattern is magnified so many times, it means that all the residents of the entire city can integrate with the city at any time and possess the power of gods. If all the sky cities have such perverted designs, then it is simply unimaginable how Gresco and others destroyed those sky cities.
Lin Li was once amazed by the eternal furnace designed by Osric, and was also shocked by the dark throne created by the Dragon of Destruction. After Conneris made the suggestion to merge the Blacknose Throne with the Eternal Forge, he once thought that even if its power was not as powerful as the Sky City, it might not be much inferior. But now, actually standing on the Sky City and looking at the various settings around me, my thoughts are simply childish and ridiculous.
Although the high elves have been lost in UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.net now, Lin Li can fully imagine that when someone invades this city in the sky, with the activation of the magic pattern of conquest, each and every one of them would have What a spectacular sight it is when a high elf with extraordinary strength suddenly possesses power comparable to that of a god. However, while sighing at the power of Sky City, Lin Li had a new understanding of Gresco's strength. The title of God of Mage is not just the respect that magicians have for Gresco's contribution to magic. Although he was not alone, he could only be described as a god for being able to destroy such a powerful city in the sky. Whether it was the infinitely powerful magic pattern of conquest or the various deadly designs on the buildings on both sides of the street, these were just what Lin Li saw. Lin Li had every reason to believe that there must be more deadly traps somewhere he couldn't see.
Therefore, even though as a legendary mage, he could already use flight to fly over those buildings, he still walked along the streets honestly.
Although he took a lot of detours, Lin Li finally arrived at the center of the Sky City safely. In a wide square, it was the control hub of the Sky City, the sky-high tower. Huge tower. Compared with this Heart Tower, the Dusk Tower is simply a toy. Even the materials used to build the Dusk Tower, which Lin Li was proud of, now seem crude and crude, as if adobe and gold bricks are completely incomparable. .
