Chapter 10 The City of Shade
"The VIP card of the Blue Sky Chamber of Commerce?" Zhao Qiankun's eyes lit up: "Is it the one you used to eat before?"
Murong Wei nodded: "Similar, but better than mine! This card can be consumed under the name of the Blue Sky Chamber of Commerce for 50% off! And there is a pre-stored amount of 2,000 gold coins. Whether in West Caroline or the territory of the Nangong family, it is calculated according to local standards of gold coins!"
"Can you withdraw cash?" Zhao Qiankun suddenly thought of the wonderful use of this card.
Although the Nangong family's gold coins and the currencies of the East and West are not circulated due to the outrageous exchange rate, there are still secret currency transactions among the people, but they only have to take risks and the handling fee is very high. But if you pass this card, can you exchange currency without consumption?
"Of course not, what do you think of a day?" Murong Wei said angrily, and Zhao Qiankun laughed: "If it doesn't work, it won't work. It's a 50% off. It's good to take it to consume at that time... the snow pupa I ate last time will be good, and I want to try it again..."
"This hasn't arrived yet!" Murong Wei smiled and said, "Why does it seem like you have booked the reward?"
"Don't worry, as long as I want to get it, this reward will not be able to escape!"
Looking at Zhao Qiankun's confident look, Murong Wei shook her head: "Sometimes I really doubt whether you are confident or arrogant..."
"Is this not easy to distinguish?" Zhao Qiankun smiled and said, "Confident capital is strength, while arrogant capital is imagination!"
"Is that?" Murong Wei smiled and glanced at him: "I think you have a lot of imagination!"
"I don't deny this..." Lao Zhao smiled and said, "But I know magic, magic that can turn imagination into reality!"
"Just blow!"
While speaking, a bright meteor suddenly appeared in the sky, dripping across the night sky from east to west.
"Wow, what a big meteor! Make a wish!" Zhao Qiankun was happy when he saw it, and folded his hands together: "I hope Yui Aragaki will also travel through time; I hope I can get gold in the next life; I hope I can play with riding and killing two in the next life..."
He was just making a wish and making a happy wish, but he found Murong Wei on the side with a serious face and a horror in his eyes.
"That... it's not a meteor, it's a comet!" Murong Wei shook her head and said, "The old man said that the appearance of a comet is an unknown sign, especially the red comet, which often means that a major disaster is about to come..."
"You are feudal superstition!" Zhao Qiankun curled his lips and disagreed: "Cometries are just natural phenomena, so why do they like to be associated with luck and other things?"
Murong Wei frowned: "I hope you are right..."
………
In the West Caro Island, somewhere in the Silver Ridge Empire, a red fire ball fell from the sky and fell into the mountains and forests, causing a huge explosion!
The huge impact alarmed an old hunter nearby. He went into the mountain to hunt and was resting in a wooden house not far away. Suddenly he heard a loud noise and came out to take a look. As a result, the scene in front of him shocked him.
The forests that you usually hunt are beyond recognition. Within a radius of hundreds of meters, the soil and rocks are overturned, and trees are falling down. Only a huge melting pit in the center is left, with thick smoke emitting...
The old hunter realized that something was wrong, so he approached the melting pit with his weapon. Although he was dressed simply and inconspicuously, twenty years ago, he was also a high-level officer in the empire and a master with a third-level combat position. However, in that coup, he supported the rebels. Later, Queen Evannair quelled the rebellion. In order to evade punishment, he hid in the mountains and became a hunter.
Over the years, his ability has not been abandoned, and he is still fighting with beasts and becoming more and more pure. Although he has never verified his combat position, he should have long exceeded the third level. The so-called skilled and brave man, relying on his own ability, he dared to approach the terrible melting pit.
"Is it a meteorite?" The hunter secretly looked into the pit and saw an ellipsoid with a smooth surface and red light lying in the pit. It looked like a huge egg, and the red light was pounding again and again, as if it was alive.
The hunter frowned, picked up the javelin in his hand and planned to look closer. Suddenly, the eggshell broke, and a red tentacle stretched out from it, and grabbed the hunter straight!
The hunter subconsciously waved the javelin and whipped it. With a click, the gun bar broke, and his hands were numb! The hunter was shocked and turned around to escape, but several tentacles shot out from the egg, entangled him tightly and dragged him into the egg!
The giant dome began to shake violently, accompanied by the hunter's screams. After a moment, the eggshell broke open and the hunter came out as if nothing had happened, licked his fingers, revealing a strange smile.
"Very good, next, go find the human who killed my cute subordinates..."
"The Hunter" said, strolling out of the melting pit, with a trace of evil light flashing in his eyes that was not like humans...
Zhao Qiankun, who was far away in the sky, did not know the story of the comet that made a wish, laying eggs and giving birth to children on a distant continent tens of thousands of kilometers away.
The adventurers team continued to move forward and finally arrived under the World Tree on the third Sunday in July...
In fact, a few days ago, the outline of the World Tree appeared in the sky. It was really like what Murong Wei said. A straight trunk with a layer of tree canopy on it, from bottom to top from large to small, with a gap in the middle, looking like a big straw hat...
Now, after entering the shade range, I can’t see the full picture of the World Tree, because this tree is so... big.
The tree height is more than 10,000 meters, and the bottom layer is the largest and widest, covering an area of hundreds of square kilometers, which is even better than the area of Karentis City. As for the shadows cast, it is even wider.
The end point of adventurers is not the roots of the World Tree. Under the layers of canopies, the ground is almost always shadowed, and it is not suitable for human habitation. Therefore, the main city of the Tree Shade City is built on a cliff outside the shade, almost flush with the canopy of the World Tree, about one thousand meters away from the edge of the tree canopy. Looking inside the city, the view is almost occupied by this giant tree, and it looks very majestic!
Compared with Tianqiong City, Shuyin City is a little smaller in scale. After all, the environment deep in the mainland is more dangerous, and there are fewer people who can come here, which is inconvenient to build. Not only is the area small, but the houses are also very rough and simple. It looks like an era behind Tianqiong City!
But one thing is that the tree-shading city is something that the sky city and the earth-shading city cannot catch up! That is the tower in the center of the city!
In order to deal with the monsters deep in the island of Qiongluo, the magic barrier here has higher requirements, so the barrier tower here is the highest, largest and strongest!
