Act 305 ‘Silver Plains’
The buildings here look indescribably weird to the eyes of locals like Princess Magdale, Huang Huo, Fang Qi and even the prime minister's daughter. These buildings are simple - but they often have complex geometric curves. And the material on the surface is either metal, crystal or glass - although most of the metal columns and frame structures seemed to have been engulfed by flames, looked charred and showed signs of melting, the glass and crystal were broken and scattered everywhere. All the roads in the city are covered with dust, forming a gray world. ∈↗,
Just like the domain of Gray Sword Saint Mephistopheles unfolds.
But to say that these buildings are luxurious, they are so simple. They do not have the complex and changeable multiple lines of human religious buildings, no pointed vaults, and no complicated decorations; they do not have the hollowed-out corridors and complicated patterns of the elves. There are no arched windows and various pavilions and gardens; there are not as many dazzling columns, stone statues and carvings as the dwarf buildings - these buildings are just composed of simple geometric shapes and changeable planes. Simple and powerful, but without losing imagination.
Everyone was stunned, as if they were in a different world, so much so that they didn't even notice that their captain seemed a bit familiar here.
Princess Magdale was studying the ground - the ground was also paved with metal. She wiped it gently with her fingers, and the dim light on the metal became brighter: "Mithril!" She exclaimed, showing a look of shock and disbelief. The eyes come.
This discovery caused a stir among others because the entire street, or indeed most of the buildings in the city, was paved with the same metal.
A city built of mithril.
Everyone had shocked looks in their eyes, and of course, a few of them also showed fanatical looks. This includes Ling and the little female dragon Aloz.
The elder sister of the pair of half-elf sisters seemed to finally come to life at this time.
She asked her sister in a low voice: "Are these really mithril? Is that a very valuable metal?"
"Sister," Lian said, feeling a little embarrassed about her sister's money-obsessed behavior: "Everyone is watching. Besides, bringing so much mithril back to our world 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 and continue to look for Mother? There is so much mithril here, it won't matter if we take some. As for the price fluctuations It doesn’t matter, just get rid of them before then.”
Brando heard the two sisters talking - not that he wanted to eavesdrop, but the voices of the two sisters were too loud - he couldn't help but be surprised by Ling's 'professional vocabulary', it seemed that the little girl did not This isn't the first time I've done something like this.
But when he turned back to look at the latter, the little girl immediately closed her mouth. Showing an expression of indifference.
However, compared to the 'reservation' of the two little sisters, the little female dragon Aloz was obviously caught in a feverish state. "So many!" Brando heard her exclaiming in an incorrect tone, and she hurriedly He ran to the side and bit the metal pillar with his teeth - in Brando's opinion, it should be a lamp post.
"This is not Mithril!" The little female dragon screamed: "This is not Mithril at all!"
As a 'wealth collection expert', the identification results of the dragons, especially the female dragon, caused a commotion among others. "How could it be possible?" Princess Magdale was not surprised: "Such a light metal, so hard, and so Good magic transmission ability and luminosity. This is obviously mithril."
"This is not mithril," Aloz was so sad that he almost shed tears: "mithril is sweet. The taste of this thing is wrong."
Brando, who was observing a building in the distance, almost spat out a mouthful of blood when he heard what the little female dragon said. He thought that this is how the emotional dragons appraise metals. He could totally imagine it.
Probably for the dragon clan, the higher the value of the metal - the more delicious it is to eat.
So gold probably tastes like chocolate.
But he had already recognized the identity of this metal.
This is titanium alloy.
Titanium structures are used throughout the city, including paved floors. It's clearly more than just a city. Brando had a vague feeling that this thing was more like a fortress.
It's too advanced.
Far ahead of his time as he knew it.
He raised his head and stared at the gray sky, but he seemed to see that summer night in the Butcher Mountains - the bright starry sky of Warnd. That night, he stared at the vast night sky in the same way. Ask yourself:
Why did you come to this place?
Was it a mission given to him somewhere?
He was told to save the country of Eruin.
And at this moment.
The answer to this question seems to have multiple meanings.
He had a vague feeling that everything he was looking for might be able to get the final answer in this city. He couldn't help but think: Maybe his arrival here was not just a coincidence, but rather a matter of choice.
But the problem is.
Who chose me?
While Brando was silent, Princess Magdale clearly became interested in the various symbols that appeared on the ground. As a representative public figure of the Temple of Fire, she has been to many countries 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 new.
The streets are painted with all kinds of symbols. What are their purposes? Is it a religious symbol? Or is it just an artistic painting?
But she saw many repeating patterns that made her question her judgement.
Her Royal Highness the Princess raised her head and saw Brando walking across a street with ease. She couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Brando, what is the purpose of these symbols?"
Brando was thinking about his own problem. When he heard Magdale's inquiry, he turned around and glanced at what she was pointing at, and subconsciously replied: "That's the right lane."
"What, what about this?"
"zebra crossing."
"zebra crossing?"
Brando suddenly reacted: "Uh... probably, I just said it casually."
"Mr. Brando..."
"I'm sorry, I just saw that the atmosphere was too heavy and wanted to make a joke." Faced with Princess Magdale's questioning look, Brando couldn't help but feel dumbfounded - it seemed that when he came to this place, the other half deep in his soul, Then he started to become active.
What happened just now caught him off guard.
Princess Magdale was stunned. Although she seemed to think Brando's words were a bit suspicious, she couldn't find anything wrong. She couldn't help but think that she was too worried. Indeed, the depressive atmosphere here was unbearable. Some became suspicious.
After finally avoiding the nun and princess' questioning, Brando finally breathed a sigh of relief, but when he turned around, he saw Aloz, who had returned to his human form, looking at him with a 'treacherous' look.
"Hmm."
"What?"
"This is the fortress of the Silver Plains. It is said to be the birthplace of the rune dwarves. The knowledge about this place is all secret. It is information that even the Dragon Clan and Buga people have lost. How do you know about it, stinky human being? ?" The little female dragon was still holding half of the lamppost in her hand, and said in a proud tone: "Did you find it again from the pile of old papers of a certain mage?"
"I said, it was just a casual remark." Brando replied angrily: "What are you doing with that lamp post? Do you plan to use it as a weapon?"
"Is this a lamppost?" the little female dragon glanced at him ambiguously: "I see, I just want to take it back to the Dragon Clan to see if this thing is worth anything. Its physical properties are similar to mithril, and it has the same properties. In theory, good magic conductivity should not be a simple metal."
"I just looked at it like that."
"Hehe, unnecessary explanation, stinky human being."
"you shut up."
Brando and Aloz were entangled endlessly. Fortunately, the little female dragon didn't seem to intend to go further on this issue. She was just complacent with her own judgment. Not long after, Huang Huo and Fang Qi found the traces left by Fuluofa and others.
It was a tall building—much taller and more majestic than any human building in Warnd. In fact, before seeing such a city, it was hard for others to believe that there could be such a building in the world. Such a tall and straight place.
Of course, some of them may have seen the World Tree in Valhalla and still remember that towering fortress. However, compared to the giant mountain-like tower in the center of the city, the World Tree in Valhalla is just insignificant.
On the building discovered by Huang Huo, Brando saw the body of a giant dragon.
The latter was prostrate on the top of the building in the form of a dragon, with a huge spear stuck behind his back. The spear nailed it to the glass and titanium alloy structure building. His head was tilted to the side, and he was obviously dead. For a long time.
"This spear..."
Magdar stared at the dark red spear, a little solemnly: "This is the lava spear, this is the weapon of a high-level demon. This is the first time I have seen the real thing - strange, how can they fight with me?" ?”
"Don't underestimate the devil's madness," Aloz replied through gritted teeth: "It must want to monopolize the loot here, or please the Dragon of Dusk. Damn it, Frofa is in danger."
As she said that, she wanted to chase him in that direction.
But before she could take action, Brando held her shoulders: "Wait, something is wrong here." Brando looked around solemnly and warned in a low voice.
He just finished speaking.
On the quiet street, rustling sounds came from everywhere, like countless insects crawling on the ground, surrounding them from all directions.
