Chapter 54: Arriving at the Royal Capital
Murray quickly activated his magic power, and a pure white flame ignited in his left palm, and a small magical storm condensed in his right palm. But when he looked at the gray-robed girl's cold eyes like a frozen lake, he deprecatingly dissipated his magic. The other party can walk behind him unconsciously, and this strength is not something he can compete with at all.
Most people in the world think that he Murray Grand Magister is a high-ranking fifth-level professional, a world-strong man who is only one step away from becoming a demigod. But how far a person's eyes can see depends to a large extent on how high he stands! Therefore, he knows very well how terrifying those unknown forces are, and he will not and will never dare to be complacent!
The gray-robed girl didn't seem to pay attention to Murray's attack at all, and still said in that light tone: "Just now you said that you wanted to go to Ah Lan. Don't waste your efforts, I'm Ah Lan!"
"What!!" Murray's heart trembled, and his brain roared from being overly excited, "You are... Yes, there aren't many people on the Lost Continent who can approach me silently, but Lord Lan is definitely one of them. But the boy just said......"
"He's not lying!" Ah Lan pulled the corpse of the Anto Demon General to a stone pier and sat down, "Yesterday morning, the soul worm I put on Luo Ning died. I was worried that he was in danger, so I came over to take a look. If you don't make a move, it's going to die!" said Alan, taking a coin-sized black reptile from the back of Antomo's neck and placing it in the water bladder pinned to his waist.
"You've done that kid a lot of good, so I'll give you a chance. Say, what do you want me to do?......"
At the same moment, the Morrowind King was outside the capital.
The red tongue of fire quickly swept over the patches of dead trees and grass, and the magic bell waved his hand to sweep away the flying dust, and the magnificent city built on the mountain hundreds of meters away immediately came into the eyes of several people!
"Great, Your Highness Princess! We're in the royal capital!" said the Magic Bell happily, his eyes narrowing into two crescents with a smile, and he looked extremely gentle.
Lena looked at the passers-by who entered and exited the city gate, the scattered rooftops, and the hundred-meter stone sculpture hidden in the snow and white clouds at the top of the royal capital center, and finally turned into a sigh: "Yes, I'm finally back!"
He saw that the Luo Ning brothers and sisters were fascinated, so he explained to them with a smile: "In folklore, in order to protect innocent people, Wind Feather Condor Eagle fought against the demons and undead who invaded here for several months, and finally died of all his strength! In order to miss the Wind Feather Divine Eagle, the ancestors of the Morrowind Kingdom deliberately left a peak in the center of the area, and spent nearly a hundred years carving it into the appearance of the Wind Feather Divine Eagle Iger!"
"It took almost a hundred years... This Wind Feather Condor is worthy of being the guardian beast of the Morrowind Kingdom, and it is really good enough... But this condor is dead, how can I protect you?"
Lena said with a smile: "Lord Eagle already has the strength of a demigod before he dies, although his body is dead, his soul is immortal, and after the completion of the royal capital, he has been sleeping in the stone statue of the Condor, unless the Morrowind Kingdom suffers a catastrophe, he will definitely not leave half a step." ”
Luo Ning was stunned by this story, and only felt that all this was too unbelievable.
Soon after, several people passed through the tall city wall more than ten meters wide. Enter the royal capital through the south gate.
"Wow, that's a lot of people! But it seems..."
Indeed, the first impression that the Morrowind King gave to Luo Ning was like a set of delicate and complex gears. The white-stone paved road leads in all directions, dividing the tightly packed group of buildings into numerous square areas of regular shape. With the help of numerous stone steps, people in the city can follow the road to most parts of the city.
Those complexes are divided into two categories: high and low. The low-rise single-storey and double-storey buildings are small but not crowded, and have the flavor of a country house. The taller buildings have a typical Gothic style. Slender minarets, leaf-shaped ribbed vaults at the entrance, and colorful floor-to-ceiling windows. Although everything in front of him was amazingly beautiful, Luo Ning did not have too much surprise.
"What, do you think that the royal capital is not much different from other cities, so you are a little disappointed?" Princess Lena pierced Luo Ning's heart.
"It's no wonder! It's not just you, most people will think ordinary when they first enter the lower city, come with me!"
With that, Princess Lena led the crowd around the market and several temples in the lower city, and finally came to a square with a wide view.
"Look!" Princess Lena pointed out into the air. The Luo Ning siblings and Akuro were both coming to the royal capital for the first time, and when they looked up when they heard the words, they were so shocked that they couldn't speak. About a thousand meters away from them, two crystal stairs tens of meters wide suddenly appeared. Meticulously polished by craftsmen, the staircase glows with dazzling colors in the sunlight.
But what really made them sigh was not the material of this ladder, but the magical existence to which it eventually leads. The 100-meter-long staircase connects to a floating land hundreds of meters above the ground. This is not a visual illusion caused by the terrain, but a real castle in the sky. Ronin could even see a few birds flying under the land.
Princess Lena was very satisfied with Luo Ning's surprised expression: "See, that is the Shangcheng District of the Morning Wind King's Capital, a veritable Continent in the Sky! Every stone and soil in it contains a trace of magic left by the Phoenix Feather Divine Eagle!"
She looked around for a moment, and finally saw a walnut-shaped cart made of gold and silver flying through the sky. The small car glides smoothly through the air by a giant squirrel with white wings.
"Found it! Flying car to Uptown!" Lena grabbed the stunned three people and ran in the direction where the car flew up, and soon came to the vicinity of the empty square where hundreds of cars were parked.
It is said to be spacious, but this square is actually a large runway for cars to take off and land, resulting in low area utilization. There are still a lot of people waiting in the waiting area next to the runway. Luo Ning looked at it, from words and deeds to clothing and accessories, all of them looked graceful and noble. To paraphrase a later generation, it is "full of evil capitalist atmosphere!", he knew in his heart that there were definitely many rich and powerful people here.
In this environment, Princess Lena, who has no "nobility" in her manners, is very conspicuous. She didn't care about the contemptuous gazes of others, and pulled Luo Ning to quickly squeeze through the crowd and come to a car with two red giant eagles parked in the front.
This move made those nearby who looked at him with disdain sneer. Although the car seemed ordinary and parked in the middle of this square, no one dared to complain, at most they planted a lemon tree in their hearts, and ate lemons when they saw it. This is all due to the fact that the side of the chariot is carved with a wind-feathered eagle symbolizing the royal family of Morrowind, and the only four winged fire eagles in the royal capital belong to the current king without exception.
Seeing Lena rushing to the side of the car and opening the door, everyone sneered in their hearts, waiting to see Lina's joke.
"Oh, this crazy girl is really dead! The king's chariot dares to move around! You see, the two winged fire eagles have turned back! I bet she and her companions will be burned to death by the fire spewed by the winged fire eagles! Haha, what a deserved one!"
Such voices are not just in the heart of one person. But what happened next left them dumbfounded.
When the two-winged eagle saw Lina, it suddenly fluttered its wings twice excitedly, let out a loud cry, and turned to pounce on Lina. Yet beneath that silver mask, Lena laughed happily.
"It's good that you two have a conscience and haven't forgotten me!" Lena smiled and stepped forward, tiptoeing up and reaching for the necks of the two winged fire eagles, rubbing the two heads covered in soft red fluff against her cheeks.
"My eyes must have spent! The sixth-level Demonic Beast Winged Fire Eagle, known for its ferocity, is actually as well-behaved as a chick!"
"yes, there was an unlucky ghost just a moment who just looked at them twice, and he was sprayed all over with fire, how did they turn so quickly?"
"Who is this little girl?"
"That little sister next to her is so cute, like an angel......"
......
"The magic bell also comes in together, these two little guys know the way, we don't need to do it!" With that, Princess Lena pulled Ronin into the car first, followed by Wendy and Acro. Neo fell behind the magic bell, swept his eyes with pity over the faces of the colorless passers-by, and got into the car with a pretentious sigh.
Seeing the door closed, the winged fire eagle flapped its wings very spiritually, and soon pulled the car into the sky and disappeared on the edge of the upper city.
