Chapter 439 High Technology

After the banquet, Yzaks led Hao Ren and the others to a terrace above the palace. From here, one could overlook most of the Demon King's city - this huge city was so huge that even in the palace You can't even get a full view of it from the highest place.

This roughly circular city is planned in an orderly manner. Inside the magnificent obsidian exterior wall are twelve areas separated by twelve symmetrically distributed high walls. Each area can see various The iconic building of the race and the huge black tower built by the demons. The residents in the city are not blocked from each other by these high walls. There are huge gates and suspension bridges on the walls. These gates and suspension bridges are driven by magic and can be opened and closed at any time. Their function is probably to prevent the city from being attacked. time to further defend against foreign enemies. The Demon King's palace is located in the center of the city, built on a tall rocky hill.

Looking down, you can see that the giant trees of the elves are adjacent to the houses of humans, the furnaces of the dwarves are close to the arenas of the orcs, and the crystal towers of the Eldar are built on the cellars of the halflings - hundreds of years of living together. The traditions and habits of these "Demon Prince citizens" have been completely changed. As a group of people who live directly in the Demon King's City and are most affected by Yzaks, they have long adapted to this atmosphere of gathering together and living together. The elves can't help but You will feel that there is something wrong with the orcs' crude barbecue with strong liquor. The orcs are also happy to study their complicated but exquisite wood carving craftsmanship with the elves. This is the true side of the eerie and terrifying Demon King's City in the eyes of outsiders.

It's a pity that most people can only notice the ferocious appearance on the hundred-foot-high wall of Demon King's Castle.

Yzaks crossed his arms and looked down at everything: "Do you think this city can be transferred as a whole?"

Hao Ren didn't take it seriously: "The hundreds of millions of people in the Erim Elves have been packed away, as well as several of their floating islands - those islands are larger than your Demon King's City."

"But there was a transport fleet at that time, and more importantly, there was a world gate in the Irem Elf universe." Yzaks glanced at Hao Ren, "There is no such thing in this world. Our original plan was just to find Elizabeth. , but I didn’t expect that there was a whole city full of people..."

Hao Ren shrugged: "Anyway, it would be unrealistic for you to give up on the people of this city, right?"

Yzaks chuckled and said nothing.

"So that's it," Hao Ren grinned, "Don't think about these things, I have arrangements. The problem of the world gate can be solved. I am going to write a report and apply to the superiors to open a temporary gate. As for Population inflow... don’t worry, I have experience.”

As soon as Hao Ren said he had experience, Vivian and Nangong Wuyue, who were next to him, immediately started rolling their eyes, knowing what this guy meant by experience.

Vivian looked at this magnificent city and looked at Yzaks with some curiosity: "Actually, I'm more curious about another thing: Did you really give up like that?"

"I've done all I can do. If I lose, I lose. It would be pointless if I drag these people in the city to die again because of my own obsession." Yzaks pointed to the city below, " This is not a comeback, this is just a waste of these people’s lives.”

"But I'm afraid some of your subordinates don't think so," Hao Ren glanced at Yzaks, "for example, that Ramendino."

Yzaks was silent for a moment, then put his hand on Elizabeth's head and stroked it gently: "It won't be long before he will leave the city with some of the demons. Elizabeth, tell Gadama later. Don't stop him."

The little girl nodded sensibly, and Hao Ren was suddenly surprised: "You know someone is going to run away?"

"I have been dealing with him for thousands of years. We have been fighting together since before the Unification War began. There are also a few other old guys in the city. I know them very well." Yzaks smiled carelessly, "Better than Although they are more interested in the war itself, they are more interested in the war itself. If I guessed correctly, they followed Elizabeth in a different space for a year in order to recharge their batteries and prepare for a comeback. Now the chance of a comeback is gone. , they naturally won’t stay here.”

Then Yzaks sighed: "If you don't agree on the three views, you can't force it."

Hao Ren looked at Yzaks blankly: "You are very generous... You knew about this back then, how could you still tolerate them?"

"It's not that I'm generous, it's just that my talents apply," Yzaks grinned. "I don't need everyone to have the same ideas as me. I just need their power to be useful to me. Let him go if he can fight. When it comes to fighting, let him explore what he can explore, and study what he can research. Ramendino is a standard devil, so just let him do what a standard devil is best at. But now he can't accept the future. According to the arrangement, you can come and go freely."

Vivian seemed to still have some questions to ask, but Yzaks no longer planned to continue on this topic. He looked down at Elizabeth: "Okay, let's talk about the city's problems - you have solved the city's power. ?How did you do it?"

The little girl Elizabeth immediately puffed up her chest: "I found it! We found an energy source in a different space, and it is now installed in the power furnace of the Royal City - Dad, do you want to see it?"

Yizhak suddenly smiled: "Of course I want to see it. Are you guys coming too?"

How could Hao Ren and his gang miss this kind of thing? They all became excited immediately. Even Doudou shouted happily: "Come here too! Come here too!"

A group of people immediately set off for the power area of ​​Demon King City, which is located underground in the palace. Elizabeth led the way, and Hao Ren and the others followed them around the palace. After passing through long corridors and strict isolation doors, everyone arrived at a circular hall. The style of this hall is different from other parts of the palace. There are no decorative sculptures or reliefs in the hall. Instead, there are many rune-like lines inlaid with crystal and silver-white metal on the surrounding walls. These The mysterious patterns glowed slightly driven by magic power. Echoing the light, there was a low humming sound that kept echoing in the hall.

Hao Ren felt like he was in a magical version of the nuclear power plant control room in another world.

Elizabeth motioned for everyone to stand still on the black stone platform in the center of the round hall, then raised her hand and made a strange gesture to a crystal above the hall. The black stone platform shook slightly and began to sink slowly.

It turns out this is an elevator...

As the elevator sank, everyone began to enter the most important area at the core of Demon King City. Hao Ren soon found that he was passing through a long vertical passage made of transparent crystal. Through the transparent walls around the passage, he could see the unknown internal structure of Demon King City: a huge, dwarven-style Steam pipes are entangled around it, and the thick bronze parts are driven by the dwarf steam power to operate, providing huge energy for the city's superstructure. Underneath the dwarf steam pipe is a grid layer made of dark red crystals and mithril metal. This layer is the buffer section of the base power zone. Further down, you can see more bizarre things, including a dark green crystal matrix arranged on an entire floor, an obsidian floor with complex magic arrays carved on it, and a steel structure that looks like a jungle - I don’t know what it was back then. How much effort did Zack spend to transform the lower part of the city to this extent? Looking at these weird structures that mixed technology, magic, alchemy, evil energy and even steam power, Hao Ren suddenly understood the long-term attack on the Demon King's City by the Holy See allied forces. No more reasons.

This is really Zenith Star technology...

After a long descent, the black stone platform finally reached the key point, and everyone arrived at the deepest part of the underground of Demon King City.

Elizabeth led the group of people along a sloping downward corridor for a while, and came to a large circular corridor. The inner walls of the corridor were neatly arranged with stone windows. Lily raised her head and looked through the stone windows. It was found that what was surrounded by the circular corridor should be the power furnace.

The power furnace is directly cast from obsidian metal. Inside is a huge rotunda. The steps on the ground of the hall go down, forming a structure like an arena auditorium. Each level of steps Countless shining runes and mithril lines can be seen everywhere, and these things are connected to the center of the hall: there, a metal device composed of several concentric rings is roaring, and in the center of the device is a mass of dark energy. A mysterious substance of red light.

On the steps of the power furnace, you can see many workers busy. In addition to demons, you can also see tall blue-skinned Eldar and short dwarf technicians rolling around like wine barrels. them.

Elizabeth proudly introduced this place: "This is the magic furnace of the royal city!"

Hao Ren stared blankly for a long time, then turned to look at Yzaks strangely: "...I suddenly knew another reason why you asked the whole world to form a group to fight."

Yzaks: "What?"

"Why do you look so different from others wherever you go?"
