Free Chapter 0280: Sky City

Twenty days later.

Eager to see the legendary sky city as soon as possible, Grimm washed up early in the morning, had breakfast, and then walked onto the deck.

The deck was already crowded at this moment, and even many wizards who had been silent since they stepped on the airship appeared among them, occupying the most advantageous positions on the side of the ship, quietly waiting for the appearance of the holy city.

The airship was now traveling between the clouds, and the cotton candy-like white clouds were torn into pieces of broken cotton wool by the sprayed wind particles, leaving a white cloud road behind the ship.

While everyone was waiting anxiously, the eyes suddenly lit up.

The airship passed through the clouds and plunged into a clear void.

The sky was so blue.

On the vast green grassland on the ground, you can see a crisscross of four roads, scanning the crowd and the hull. Even with a thick cabin, it cannot block the penetration of this blue light. Even the people in the cabin were scanned and revealed.

With the reminder from the Alliance wizard, the wizards on board did not cast spells to resist the penetration of blue light. And this blue light is obviously just a low-level witchcraft detection, mainly used to identify the identity of creatures, detect whether the target has witchcraft effects such as camouflage, deformation, and parasitism, and will not touch the deep secrets of the wizard.

Everything was fine when the wizard was scanned. When the blue light scanned the goblin Kirby, the blue light paused for a moment. However, as an identity amulet on Kirby's neck also lit up with witchcraft fluorescence, the blue light just swept by without triggering the alarm mechanism.

This amulet was specially obtained by Grimm from the silver-robed wizard on the ship.

Without this thing, alien creatures like the goblin Kirby can't take a single step in the Sky City. It stores the witchcraft marks of Kirby's contract owner Grimm and the guarantor wizard Angus. Once lost, it will be directly detained or expelled by the Sky City Guard.

The detection time is not long.

When the blue light scanned the entire ship, the boulders retracted their extended metal tentacles, turned into floating boulders again, and slowly left.

Grimm looked around. In the huge clear area, each flying ship that emerged from the sea of ​​clouds was surrounded by a varying number of mechanical guards, and the flashing blue light was clearly visible.

After the inspection, the flying ship began to move forward again, and gradually began to approach the outer ring flight platform of the Sky City.

As the distance got closer, the Sky City, which was only vaguely visible just now, finally unveiled its mysterious veil and presented its true side to everyone.

To be honest, although I have read the description of the Sky City in many books, when it was presented in its true and unpretentious form, many wizards who visited for the first time were still shocked.

Looking down from above, the Sky City is like three huge concentric rings put together, dividing the entire city outline into three clear blocks. This is probably the origin of the inner ring, middle ring, and outer ring!

All the huge buildings full of bizarre psychedelic style are built on these ring belts. Almost every inch of land is worth a lot of money. Every inch of land is covered by dense buildings and plants. The three large rings are separated by some mysterious force, which is difficult to cross easily. They can only be traveled through some special bridges.

Looking down from Grimm's perspective, wooden buildings hidden in the huge green shade, tall and solid stone buildings with extraordinary style, and metal buildings full of high-tech flavor can be seen everywhere. Towering spires, round palaces, strange and twisted alien buildings... This place has almost become an exhibition of special buildings, with all the strange buildings you can imagine.

Pedestrians as small as ants come and go on the white and spacious streets, which seems very lively.

In the inner ring, a real mountain was transplanted there, and many huge and magnificent buildings were built on the mountain, occupying the advantage of being high above, majestically overlooking the entire sky city.

Above the Sky City, there were even bigger mountains and rocks floating there. You could vaguely see the caves on them, where wizards riding huge flying mounts were going in and out.

Grimm guessed that this should be a place for garrisoning troops, and it was also part of the Sky City's huge and strict three-dimensional defense system.

As for the smaller alchemy guards, there were even more of them, and together with the huge flying birds carrying a lot of cargo, they formed a busy and orderly corner of the sky of the Sky City.

The flying ship docked at the flying platform of the outer ring.

There was a flying platform like this almost every 5 miles, and the flying ships were taking off and landing on it, which seemed extremely busy.

When Grimm, Alice and Kirby, led by Angus the wizard, got off the flying ship and stepped onto the neat and clean marble floor of the Sky City, they looked at the blurred and fantastic scenes around them, and there was still a trace of disbelief on their faces.

The warm sunlight poured down from the sky, shining on this alchemy city, and there were spots of light reflected from the beautiful buildings everywhere.

This made the sky city even more beautiful and magnificent!

Most of the people who kept coming and going beside Grimm and others were wizards, among whom there were also some wizard apprentices. Every now and then, some alien creatures wearing gorgeous clothes could be seen. As for those ordinary people, they were not qualified to set foot in this great city that marked the highest alchemy achievement in the wizard world.

Grimm made a special observation. On the flying platform, the people who were doing the hard work of loading and unloading goods were all tall and mighty iron golems. Although their movements were a bit clumsy, their work efficiency was ten times or a hundred times higher than that of human laborers.

And the wizard apprentices were the ones who directed their work.

It can be seen that the people at the bottom of this sky city are these wizard apprentices!

As soon as Grimm and his party stepped out of the flying platform, a number of alchemical carriages stopped steadily in front of them.

The golden carriages, golden wheels, golden waiters, and even the two horses pulling the carriages were golden...

The two golden horses stopped in front of Grimm, snorting and gently paddling their hooves, just like real horses.

However, Grimm's perception "saw" them very clearly.

They were not real life forms, but a kind of alchemical creation, or they could also be called alchemical creatures!

"See you at 167 Avenue des Champs-Elysees!" Wizard Angus got on a carriage first, nodded slightly to Grimm and left.

When the fully metalized alchemical horse galloped quickly, it did not give people the feeling of stiffness and dullness of metal creations. Even the hard metal hooves fell on the smooth marble floor without the expected deafening sound.

The alchemical carriage was like a small boat floating on the water, calmly and quickly weaving through the crowd and disappearing in the vast sea of ​​people.

Grimm looked at the blurred and fantastic scene in front of him with shock, and his mind always involuntarily overlapped it with some super-sci-fi earth scenes. In his mind, the chip's prompts never stopped.

"Ding, discovered unknown alchemical creations..."

"Ding, sensed the existence of unknown force fields..."

"Ding, detected strange life forms..."

"..."

There were too many things here that exceeded his expectations, making him feel like he was on the future earth.

When the study of mysticism reaches its deepest level, will it end up on the same path as technological civilization?

While Grimm was in a daze, Alice kept shouting and screaming. Whenever she saw a mysterious object she had never seen before, she couldn't help but exclaim.

The goblin Kirby was lying on the alchemical carriage, touching it here and there, and even biting it with his teeth from time to time to verify his guess. Looking at the obsessed smile on its face, it must have thought that it had come to the legendary Golden Kingdom!

"Let's go too!" Grimm closed his eyes for a moment to calm his mind, turned back and ordered: "Settle down here first and then go out for a walk!"

The three got into the alchemical carriage in front of them.

"Go to No. 167, Champs-Elysees!"

As soon as the order was issued, the alchemical carriage started smoothly!
