"Welcome, Your Excellency Elder Wu Fan."

A mage with a big black beard who looked about 50 years old bowed slightly to me and said with a smile.

"Nice to meet you too, Archmage Talen. From now on, just call me Wu Fan or Wu. Speaking of which, we can be considered half brothers. In the Mage Guild, I also received personal guidance from Farah."

I also smiled back. It's strange to say that in a country as big as Lu Gaoyin, there is no elder in it. In other words, nominally speaking, among all the adventurers in Lu Gaoyin, I currently have the highest status.

Thinking of this, I suddenly felt a little nervous. I tightened my cloak and pulled my hat down further. Then I thought that it seemed impolite, so I took off the hat again.

"Really? That's such a coincidence. I didn't expect that you would also receive guidance from the teacher. I'm ashamed to say that although I also received guidance from the teacher, my talent is really limited, so I can only eat here and wait to die.

.”

When he heard what I said, Talon showed a slight difference on his face. You must know that my profession is a druid. I didn't expect that I could get guidance from Farah. After thinking about it, he could only attribute this to the other person's talent.

, the smile on his face couldn't help but become more enthusiastic.

"Whereas, power is not everything a mage has. Those mages who are knowledgeable and perform magic exploration and research in obscurity are equally respectable."

Of course, except for mages like Farah who specialize in tinkering with weird magic items, I added silently in my heart.

Under the leadership of Tarun, we walked out of the magic hall. Lu Gaoyin's mages' guild looked almost the same as the one in Rogge's camp. They both had intricate underground chamber structures. After walking for more than ten minutes along the winding stairs, the tower

Lun stopped. Because there was a wall in front of him, he muttered a few magic spells in a low voice. The wall in front of him suddenly made a slight friction sound, and then slowly moved away, and the white light shone from above.

Next, my eyes narrowed slightly.

With this senior-brother relationship, Tarun's tone became much more friendly. In a stone study room after walking out of the secret room, I handed him the letter of introduction that Akara had given me, and he read it carefully.

After a while, he slowly raised his head.

"I already understand what Master Akara means. As for the issue of using long-distance magic to teleport, our Mages Guild naturally has no objection, but in addition, we must obtain the approval of the ruler here - His Majesty Jehaine.

, Your Excellency may have to meet with him. I will go to the palace immediately to discuss the time for the interview, which will be about two or three days. Your Excellency may wish to take this time to get familiar with Lu Gaoyin's environment.

"

It was pretty much what Akara said, so I nodded to him.

"Then please go and have a rest. I happen to be very interested in this legendary country known as the City of Jewels, and now I can't wait to go out for a stroll."

"Haha, if this is the case, Lu Gaoyin will definitely not disappoint you, sir. No matter in terms of population or prosperity, this place cannot be compared to Rogge Camp, especially the Twin Seas and Rogge Camp here.

The sea of ​​grasslands in the camp, the sea of ​​forests in Kurast, the demon fortress, and the ice and snow plateau of Harrogas. They are recognized as one of the five most magnificent wonders in the entire Dark Continent."

"When you say that, I can't help it even more."

"Then I don't know if your Excellency has anything else to give you. If not, I won't obstruct your visit. By the way, if you need a guide, I think there must be someone in our Mage Guild who can do the job."

Talen's suggestion quite surprised me. Could it be that my Lu Gaoyin attribute has been transmitted to Lu Gaoyin? Thinking about it, it is unlikely. I rejected Talen's suggestion and made an appointment with him two days later.

After returning to the Mage Guild, I walked out of the main gate of the guild under the leadership of a mage.

Just as I imagined, as a city on the edge of the desert, the air in Lugaoyin is dry and hot. As soon as I walked out of the Mage Guild, I realized this deeply. The sun hanging in the sky was as bright as

What I saw in Rogge Camp was that the ground was half as big. The oppressive feeling brought by the dazzling white light was like being in an oven. What was flowing in the air was not wind, but wave after wave of heat waves, coming from Rogge.

Arriving here at Ge Camp is like residents who have lived in Alaska for a long time suddenly appearing in Hawaii.

Although as a job changer, I am not afraid of the fierce sunshine, I still couldn't help but take out a water bag and pour a few mouthfuls of icy cold water into my dry lips before exhaling.

Calm down.

The accompanying mage saw my look and smiled knowingly.

"The climate here is indeed a bit uncomfortable for first timers, but I believe adults will be able to adapt to it quickly. Then you will find that there are actually many lovely things here."

After he finished speaking, he paused and then asked carefully.

"Sir, do you really not need a guide? You know, Lu Gaoyin is not as big as Rogge Camp. The area of ​​​​the city is at least ten times that of the camp, and there are millions of residents..."

"No, I'm just walking around casually to feel the atmosphere here. I don't plan to get to know the whole city right away."

"I see, sir, please go on your way. If you encounter any problems on the way, I believe the mages nearby will be happy to solve them for you."

The careful mage did not forget to give a kind reminder in the end.

I smiled back at this kind mage, put my cloak and hat back on tightly, and strode out of the door.

There was a small square in front of me. When I looked back, I was immediately shocked by the generosity of the Mages Guild. How could this look like the Mages Guild? - majestic stone castles as colorful as a palace, towering domes and towering towers.

Compared with the circular spire of the Rogge Camp, the Mages Guild is no different from a doghouse.

I walked across the square in surprise and came to the outer gate of the guild. There were two mages and soldiers guarding each gate. They turned to look at me with a look of doubt in their eyes, but they quickly turned back.

Walking out of the Mages Guild, there is a brick-paved avenue about ten meters wide. The bustling crowd makes me feel like I have returned to the scene on the birthday of the Earth God in Rogge Camp.

I randomly chose a direction and walked along the crowd for more than ten minutes. After a cursory observation, I found that Lu Gaoyin's cultural style was actually very close to the Arabic or Indian style, because they all have one thing in common.

The characteristic is that most of them are in desert environments.

Most of the buildings here are made of stone. If you want wood, you have to go to the edge of the misty forest dozens of kilometers away to cut it down. Therefore, the wood that can be obtained everywhere in Rogge Camp is very precious to Lu Gaoyin.

A large number of stones obtained from the Gobi Desert not far from here are combined with a neat three-dimensional trapezoidal stone structure and mixed with a layer of gray mud on the surface to form a unique stone house. Only doors and windows need to be movable to construct.

Made of wood, this kind of hut with a strong ethnic style is the residence of most civilians.

Of course, this is not all. Lugao is known as the City of Jewels, and there are countless wealthy merchants in it. Those four or five-story stone dome towers can also be seen everywhere. Although most of these tall and majestic buildings are also

They are made of stone, but the stones used in them are all higher-grade, and their appearance is polished very smooth. The skills of skilled craftsmen make them look round and bright, and there is no need to use dirty dust like civilians do.

Use mud to cover up the uneven and ugly appearance of your house.

Many of these magnificent buildings are painted with various colorful geometric patterns. The strange yet harmonious style and tone are like African totems, giving people a very distinctive feature.

Lu Gaoyin is known as the commercial center of the entire Dark Continent. The races living here are also extremely mixed - fair-skinned Rogge, humans of different skin colors, tall and indifferent Amazons, extremely strong barbarians, and even many who say no

Intelligent creatures of different races can be seen everywhere. Perhaps, the slender figure wearing a wide felt hat that you occasionally pass by is the legendary elves famous for their beauty and elegance. And standing at the door of the bar.

The dwarf covered by the cloak is most likely a dwarf who has lived in seclusion for a long time. Their blacksmith skills are the best in the entire Dark Continent...

Of course, the original residents here are indispensable - the Lugoin people. The dress of the Lugoin people is very distinctive, very similar to the Arabs seen in the world in the past. Most of the men here like to grow a messy beard.

The head is covered with a turban and a headband, and a loose white collarless robe is worn. The bust and sleeves are very large and cylindrical. This kind of clothing is more breathable and very cool to wear, so whether it is a rich person or a

Most poor people dress like this. The difference is that the rich people's clothes are made of better materials. Some wear cloaks and look energetic when walking around. Those who pay attention to style hang a tassel on their chest with a tassel inside.

It is filled with some spices, and some even hang an exquisite waist knife on their waist to show off their martial prowess. Of course, these are just toys for adventurers...

The women in Lu Gaoyin are also unique. Most of the women here are very slim, and fat women are rarely seen. Most women in Lu Gaoyin have their faces covered with veils, giving people a mysterious and seductive appeal.

, some of them are only covered with a thin gauze, their skin is looming, and their dark complexions reveal a healthy luster, which also has a unique flavor, especially their small waists, which are slender and slender. It is said that Lu Gao is famous for women's

Beauty does not lie in appearance, but in the outline, slenderness and flexibility of the waist. The bolder Lu Gaoyin women will dress themselves up in various ways and are proud of their water snake waists, while the reserved ladies will dress themselves in various styles.

Wearing white robes similar to those of men, with high collars erected around their necks, their skin is delicate and smooth. Even in this desert climate where the sun is shining brightly, they are as fair as babies and look even more delicate.

moving.

From the appearance of a city, you can tell the degree of development here. This sentence is true. In Rogge Camp, most civilians are immersed in work. Only on days like festivals can they rarely relax, and

In Lu Gaoyin, almost every day is like a celebration. Everyone here, men, women, old and young, common people and wealthy businessmen, are all good at singing and dancing. On the street, you can see some bold Lu Gaoyin women singing and dancing at any time. They dance.

, looks very much like belly dance with Arabic style, the intricate and sexy body movements, either charming and sexy, or arrogant and mysterious, vividly bring out their beautiful water snake waists, and the men are also good players of musical instruments.

Most of them are good at tambourine. If they don't have a drum in hand, even if they just take out a rough plate, they can still play a very rhythmic melody.

Of course, everything is not so beautiful. Although Lugaoyin, known as the City of Jewels, is indeed full of gold, the richer you are, the more inevitable you are with something that cannot be eliminated - slums. But the street where I am is the main road.

.Those poorly dressed poor people are not qualified to walk here. From the neatly organized groups of soldiers that can be seen passing by every few minutes, you can know that the security here is extremely strict.

"Hey, wait."

A group of soldiers passed by me, and the leader suddenly turned around and said to me coldly.

I was slightly startled and turned around.

"Is something wrong?"

"Looking at your outfit, you seem to be unfamiliar. Take off your hat."

I was stunned. Although dressing up with my whole body wrapped in a cloak is indeed a bit mysterious. But it seems that I am not the only one around. How did he judge that I am "very unfamiliar"? Look at their vicious looks.

, clearly looking for trouble.

"What if I say no?"

I narrowed my eyes slightly. I had never been treated like this in Rogge Camp, and an unknown anger suddenly rose in my heart.

"Be brave, do you know where this place is? Don't think that a small mercenary can be so rampant."

The leading captain suffocated slightly. Their aura, which usually only bullied civilians, could not compare to the adventurers' murderous intention honed by long-term killings.

"Really? What if I still insist on refusing? What can you do to me?"

A smile appeared at the corner of my mouth, and I touched my palm lightly. A dark crow appeared in my palm and answered softly.

Maybe people who don't know it think it's just a poor performance, but the captain is pretty good at what he does. This crow doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary, but the sharp black eyes flashing and the smooth lines seem to be able to escape from his eyes at any time.

It's as if the heart is going through it - he can be sure that this is definitely one of the Druid's signature skills.

Even though the lazy crow rarely joins the battle, we just assume that it is weak. After all, it is a crow with a skill level of 8 and a mutated level 2. If you want to think about the team in front of you, it has not even reached the soldier level.

, at best, it would take no more than 5 seconds to kill the soldiers who can only fight with the students in Rogge camp.
