The Immortal City in Pars is the most magnificent city in the world, home to half a million people and bustling with traffic.

The Immortal City does not belong to any one nation, but it has an indisobedient command over the seventeen human kingdoms on the entire continent.

Because the Immortal City is a city of mages, there are nearly 50,000 regular mages and mage apprentices in this city of 500,000 people. And the remaining 450,000 people are almost all ordinary people who serve these 50,000 mages and mage apprentices, or are studying hard and hope to become apprentices of mage apprentices.

Mages, a group of people who wield supernatural powers. They have an extraordinary control over the world. The war of ordinary humans is meaningless in their eyes.

A full-fledged third-order mage could easily defeat an elite human force of a hundred knights on foot. With a wave of his wand, the foot knights would be crushed by their heavy armor or scalded to the ground.

And in the Immortal City, there are more than 10,000 mages with these extraordinary powers.

Thankfully, the mages are not very interested in the struggle for power in human states. Because the mages want to really grab power not in the human nation, but in the Immortal City.

In this world, if you want to hold real power, you must make a name for yourself in the Immortal City. Out of the two hundred ordinary seats of the Mage United Association in the Immortal City, among the thirty upper seats, one of the five supreme speakers has its own status.

The rights of the human state are illusory and ethereal, and only the rights of the Immortal City are real and powerful.

Because of the extraordinary power of the mage, the Immortal City has become the center of the entire world, and it is also the most prosperous place in the entire world.

It has the largest number of high-rise buildings in the world.

The tall buildings that can be built in the mortal world are no more than castles, and thirty meters high can already be described as majestic.

And in the Immortal City, the hundred-meter-high mage tower stands everywhere. The tallest building is a giant minaret built in the center of the city: the Immortal Minaret!

It is a tall white tower supported by a massive circular pedestal with a diameter of 400 meters, which rises in steps. The tower gets thinner and thinner the higher it goes, and by the time it reaches the top of the tower, which is three hundred meters taller, the diameter of its interior has shrunk to two hundred meters.

There are still golden lines on the outer wall of the towering white spire, which are the patterns of the magic array. They protect the tower from storms, thunderstorms, and earthquakes. At the same time, it is also a large array that combines defense and offense. If the Immortal City is truly attacked, then it will become the last barrier of the Immortal City.

The monumental white minaret with golden veins glitters in the sun, and it is a must be admired by all who visit the city.

The Immortal City has no walls, because if the mages are to face a war, the walls are an obstacle for them.

But this does not mean that it is easy to enter the Immortal City, nor does it mean that the Immortal City is undefended. In fact, there are psychedelic circles all around the entire Immortal City, and if someone tries to sneak into the Immortal City without going through the way in and out of the city, they will most likely be trapped in the psychedelic circle and starve to death. If an ordinary mortal army wanted to attack the Immortal City, they wouldn't even be able to pass this level.

The Immortal City is too great to admire. Countless people want to live and study in this miraculous city.

But the Immortal City is not so easy to recruit outsiders. The population of the Immortal City is now close to saturation, and although it is also expanding outward, it is not so fast. Because the Mage Council didn't want the city to be unable to keep up with their vision due to rapid expansion.

So they've stopped recruiting immigrants for years. Although people from outside can come to the Immortal City to visit relatives and do business, they are not allowed to live in the city without the qualification of residents of the Immortal City.

Only those apprentices who have a talent for magic and a portion of the skilled craftsmen needed for the city's development are brought into the city by the mages every year, and are subject to residency status.

As a result, although the Immortal City is only a city, there are eight satellite cities scattered around it.

In the beginning, they were just a camp formed spontaneously by people who wanted to enter the Immortal City but couldn't. But over time, and the main transportation arteries they carded on, these cities were formed.

Sylvie City, about thirty kilometers west of the Immortal City, is one such city. The city here is not large compared to the Immortal City, with a population of only 100,000. But for other human countries on the continent, this is a big city that can almost be the capital of the country.

Sylvie is a satellite city of the Immortal City, although it has a lord who manages the day-to-day affairs. But everyone knows that the true rulers of Sylvie are the mages of the Immortal City. They indirectly manage the city.

The city is an important food supply point for the Immortal City. Sylvie is an agricultural city through and through. Because it happens to be located on a large plain with abundant water systems. The root grains produced here are the most important staple foods of the Immortal City and several surrounding cities.

At the same time, because Sylvie happens to be stuck on the western road to the Immortal City, any caravan who wants to enter the Immortal City will make the final touches in Sylvie. Therefore, Sylvie is quite a prosperous city among many satellite cities.

Listening to Qin Kuairen's introduction, Zhang Tong walked on the smooth stone road and nodded frequently. On both sides of the road are planting areas that are not in sight.

"The root food grown here is much like a potato. They are produced in high yields and can be eaten as well as used to make wine. The city of Sylvie alone supports almost all the staple food of the ten surrounding cities. It also produces some of the best shochu near the Immortal City. I'll have you and a drink later. Qin Kuairen said to Zhang Tong.

Returning to this world that he is somewhat familiar with but somewhat unfamiliar, Qin Kuairen has a feeling of revisiting the old place.

"The surroundings of the Immortal City are very quiet and peaceful. Although other human nations fought back and forth, the flames of war never burned near the Immortal City. Later, we'll go to the Immortal City to find my teacher, and then talk to him well, maybe this time it will be done. Qin Kuairen seemed to be confident about this mission.

He didn't have much time to spend on political tasks, so finding time for himself to learn more magic, especially medical magic, was the most important thing.

Zhang Tong asked Qin Kuairen with some curiosity: "You keep talking about your teacher, but I'm curious about who your teacher is, is it influential in this world?"

Qin Kuairen patted his chest: "Of course, my teacher is one of the five speakers of the Immortal City, and he is the most powerful magician in this continent. As long as he speaks, there is nothing that cannot be done! When we finish the matter, Boss Zhang, I will invite you to eat the most distinctive food in the world!"

Qin Kuairen and Zhang Tong were getting closer and closer to Sylvie City as they spoke. But as he got closer to the city and there were more pedestrians on the road, Zhang Tong began to be a little suspicious of what Qin Kuairen said.

Doesn't it mean that this is a land of abundance and peace, and why are people passing by in a hurry?
