Thank you for the rewards of the passers-by, Qinglian Dream, and the ultimate human cannon.

——————————————————————

The outer city of Endymion was located directly behind the inner city, and this "back" was naturally relative to the two directions in which the enemy might attack.

Of course, it is impossible to choose to put yourself in the position of a meat shield when building simple houses, and most of the residents attached to them are craftsmen and workers, and there are a few who do not want to join the army, and the total number is about 70,000. This number is very small in the proportion of people who fled with them, most of the people who were taken away during the evacuation were the remaining elite soldiers, they had already been incorporated into the coalition camp outside the city at this moment, and some people who often shuttled to the wilderness because of their work, every time they passed through the city gate, they would involuntarily look into the dense tents, as if this could add a little more security to them.

Seventy thousand ordinary people who do not have much combat ability can be said to be not only unwilling to participate in the war themselves, but the rulers do not want to need them to set foot on the battlefield. Mithra's army could easily kill them all in less than half a day, and this is not counting their real elite troops...... In addition, for some reason, the death of these people will become the "weapon" of their attack, so unless it is really a last resort, these people will be protected in the rear like hens laying eggs.

As for the inner city of Endymion, it is not very majestic, but it is more elaborate than the buildings of the outer city in terms of scale and material, and the real breathtaking thing is a magic castle in the center of the inner city, which can be seen from mid-air to see that its main body is five circles, one large circle - it is surrounded by the castle wall, and four small circles at equal distances next to the great circle around the great circle - which are four minarets that store magical power. Skipping the position of the wall are some of the various magic buildings, they are very exquisite and dreamy, in the material can be seen to be clearly different from the rest of the buildings, in addition to the very center there is a palace-like tower with a height far beyond other buildings, the overall architectural style of the tower is similar to the rest of the buildings in the castle, all slightly biased towards the Latin school in the present world, because the excellent height can be faintly seen even if you stand in the outer city can see a little spire, if it is at night, A very pale red ripple can also be observed flowing from the spire, which is actually a layer of defensive energy constructed by surging magical runes, which envelops all the inner and outer cities, and gives people shelter.

"Ah, just looking at the albums painted by those people, I thought that the proportions were about the same as the wonders of the world in Spain in the Age of Empires 2...... I didn't expect it to be so big when I got closer. After walking under the castle wall, Li Bai put down his hood, raised his head and looked up at the most elite and powerful part of this legendary magic capital, and muttered something softly from time to time, "Endymion, the most powerful magic civilization, those four external devices should be used to store magic counters." ”

The morning sun was plated on the tips of her snow-white hair and the surface of her skin, emitting a faint golden light, compared with more than a year ago, Li Bai, who was able to walk more freely in the sun, looked more mature and confident, and the quiet temperament that had not been revealed for a long time appeared on her again - she really didn't look nervous at all, even if she knew how shocking what she was going to do next was in the eyes of ordinary people, and her leisurely expression was as if she was watching an ordinary scenic spot. Even the soldiers guarding the arch of the castle were unsure if she was a distinguished guest, and had been invited by the Wizard King to come here.

The appearance is not good, the temperament is not ordinary people can have, and there are two men and women who look like guards behind them, to say that the other party's actions are of the same nature as the idle people they usually drive away, I am afraid that these soldiers themselves do not believe it.

"Holy Lord, is it really good to go in like this?" Lila leaned against Li Bai's side and whispered to her: "The crusaders over there haven't activated the magic armor yet, and they can only enjoy a little bonus to the strength and defense from the armor, so this side ...... With Jane here, of course, they are not afraid, but their number seems to be a bit large...... And after all, this is Endymion's territory, and if it makes a big fuss, will it affect the next plan......"

The female magician with long black and beautiful hair, like Li Bai and Jane standing on Li Bai's right, wore a coarse cloth cloak on her body, which was different from the hood that Li Bai needed to borrow a cloak to hide her special hair color, and they mainly covered up the clothes and armor with an obvious light path style on her body.

The style of clothing of the light path is indeed too shiny and gorgeous for daily walking, and if they don't cover it up, they may not even be able to enter the inner city.

Jane didn't speak, just quietly stared at the few soldiers standing on the side of the arch not far away, there was another arch like this more than ten meters away, he silently calculated the number of people that might be attracted in the event of a conflict, and his delicate brows frowned slightly.

It's just that if these people are a few people, he is still not afraid, with the increased attack power when charging, he can completely destroy these people wearing strange armor, but if the number of opponents is too much, he may not have time or space to use the charge.

"You seem to be underestimating Endymion...... Lila. For the female magician's construction, Li Bai waved his hand indifferently.

"As long as you belong to the Magician race, as long as you are within the scope of Endymion's enchantment, your existence will be as dazzling and conspicuous in that person's eyes as fireflies in the dark, not to mention that the magic system you cultivate is completely different...... Don't you think that the leader of the origin of the most ancient magic will be blind? ”

"What does the Holy Lord mean...... He's already found us? Realizing what that meant, Lila furrowed her eyebrows as she stared up at the top of the minaret, the magic surging through her body.

"Don't be so nervous." Stretching out his hand and pressing on Lila's shoulder, Li Bai shook his head, "The other party doesn't have any malice for the time being, otherwise if we don't get close here, we will be attacked by this 'city' on the edge of the outer city." ”

"Endymion and Lamaison are different, they are very different...... Once those four magical things are in operation, the entire castle will be transformed into the most powerful weapon in the world. ”

Knowing a little bit about the horror of this magic capital, of course Li Bai can't be fooled by the peaceful disguise it is making at the moment, and the "card" that can use things like "magic power counters" to the extreme, there are at least two zài here.

Just as they were standing here and saying a few words, there was a little change in the archway, and a female mage in an emerald green robe walked through the inside, talked a few words with a group of soldiers guarding the arch, and then walked towards the place where Li Bai and the others were standing with a smile.

"Let the three guests wait for a long time, my name is Maran, and I have come by the will of my lord, and I am the mage who receives you, and I am responsible for leading you to where you want to go."

Li Bai bowed in return, and then looked at the woman who claimed to be the guide in a posture waiting for the guide.

"......" obviously made Maran a little unexpected, she couldn't figure out the details of the other party for a while, so she had to honestly follow the orders from above, leading the three of them through the arch and to the interior of the castle.

To be honest, although Endymion, which is fully mobilized, will be transformed into a powerful weapon of war, the environment and scenery inside it are indeed very beautiful and fine, Li Bai walked all the way, stepping on the pavement with pebbles of almost the same size, and his eyes were in contact with extremely elegant garden landscapes and sculptures that were trimmed everywhere, so to speak...... This is not only the highest temple for the study of magic, but also in terms of the level of creation and appreciation of art, I am afraid that there are not many civilizations that can match it.

More than ten minutes later, through a circle of arches again, Li Bai and the others finally came to the front of the tower, Malan paused slightly when leading them into the main gate, as if to carry out some kind of belief, Lila observed her move and pulled Li Bai's sleeve.

Li Bai still waved her hand, hinting that she didn't have to worry.

After entering the main entrance, there is an empty hall, there is no one in it, the marble wall in the center of the hall protrudes forward in an inverted trapezoid, there is a platform at the top that emits a faint emerald green light attached to it, and there is a dark gap in the zenith opposite, Malan took the lead to stand on the platform, and motioned for Li Bai and the three to follow and stand up, and then she didn't see any extra movements, the platform slowly levitated, through the gap in the ceiling of the hall, carrying 4 people to the higher floor.

When Li Bai saw the gap, she guessed whether this was an elevator driven by magic technology, and after confirming her guess, she lost interest in it.

I guess I've been insulated from magic in my life, so what if I know more? Even if there is a need, in the end, when it comes to the key and core issues, it is not necessary to bother the real professionals, she has the time to study them, it is better to take time to take a nap.

Looking at the white-haired woman standing in front of her with her eyes closed and pretending to sleep, Malan turned her head and hid the right half of her face from the blind spot of the other two, she didn't want others to see that the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

She had seen people who had come to the interior of Endymion for the first time, who had admired the beautiful sculptures and beautiful scenery and were indifferent.

She had also seen people who had come to the halls of Endymion for the first time, and had been indifferent on the magic elevator.

But the person who can still doze off on the magic elevator for the first time, she has lived for hundreds of years, and she has never seen it in her life.

Sure enough, it was the distinguished guests who were named by His Majesty to entertain well, not only in appearance, words and deeds, but also in such an extraordinary manner...... After Ma Lan calmed down, she was deeply convinced of her speculation, and she looked at Li Bai with such a thought, and felt that the other party was even more unfathomable.

"......" Due to her vigilance, Lila has been carefully observing the female mage in front of her all the way, and the other party's hidden several changes in demeanor have not been missed by her, the black-haired female magician squinted her eyes slightly, and used her afterglow to peek at her own holy lord who was constantly dozing and nodding, and then swallowed her saliva, reached out to go around Li Bai's back, and quickly poked Jane's waist.

The silver-haired young man with his handsome countenance was completely unmoved, still staring at eye level and expressionless, as if he didn't know anything.

“…… Yes? It's here. The slight vibration under her feet woke Li Bai from her rest, she raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, and was the first to step out.

Lila and Jane exchanged helpless glances behind her.

In the battle of Floris in the Black Forest, Li Bai obtained a huge amount of LP increased by the effect of Michael's last words - that is, souls, but the lower soul limit that she separated from Nellofa is an unsolvable problem, these "LPs" can't store zài on her for a long time, so Li Bai came up with an idea that she thinks is good, that is, to give the soul that is still extra out to her card monsters, and because this amount is still too large compared to the souls needed to maintain the monsters. They separated and merged with the monster's soul to produce a qualitative change, becoming self-sufficient by absorbing the energy in the transformed air and food, which is why the two of them can stand here.

But then...... Li Bai's condition has not changed, and the changes in her temperament and mental outlook are more due to having subordinates or partners who can be relied on with peace of mind, and she is still quite weak in nature, which leads her to be far more sleepy than ordinary people.

A lot of sleep can effectively compensate for the negative effects of mental weakness, and there were many tribulations along the way when I walked with Lilith and others before...... As the backbone of Li Bai, she couldn't get the amount of rest her body needed, and then with the assistance of Jane and Lila, several things made it easier for her to do, plus after breaking away from Flotis, she didn't have to worry about it in the normal world like she was in the dark every day, and the bad habit of being able to squint while standing for a year was finally gradually formed, and she couldn't get rid of it.

I don't know how many floors the magic guide elevator stopped, and after passing through a long corridor decorated with paintings and runes, Li Bai and the others entered a spacious reception room at the end.

The reason why it is called the reception room is because the style of its decoration is so obvious, the table and chairs as the main seat are wide and magnificent, the two rows of bookcases are full of books that can make people feel unfathomable at first glance, and there is a slightly low square table in the center of the room near the left side of the door, and several other chairs are placed randomly on the side of the square table, which is used for entertaining at first glance.

"Your Majesty is talking to the rest of the Juggernauts right now, can you wait here for a while, do you have anything you want to eat or drink?" The pastries here are absolutely different from those sold elsewhere, and I promise you'll love it. ”

It must not have been by chance that Maran had done this kind of reception, and she must have done it many times, as she knew how to appease them with the resentment that might arise from waiting.

"Thanks, but we don't need these things." Rejecting the other party's kindness in a somewhat cold tone, Li stretched out her hand and untied the cloak on Li Bai's body, revealing her gorgeous long dress made of fine white silk and gold and red thin threads.

Without waiting for Maran to express her admiration, she and Jane also took off their coarse cloth cloaks, revealing the white robe and long skirt and silver-white delicate armor that were the same as Li Bai's dress.

chose to show these different and thought-provoking things at this time, mainly because I could give the other party some pressure appropriately, so that my side would not be too passive.

"If possible, we would prefer that His Majesty Endymion would be able to do his best ......"

"Lila."

"Holy Lord?" Hearing Li Bai's call, Lila immediately stopped what she was going to say and moved slightly closer to Li Bai.

In fact, just relying on what she has already said is enough to make the other party understand the meaning, and here is a little simpler, and the effect may be better.

"When we came up just now, did you count the first floor here?"

"Well, I haven't counted this one carefully, but it seems like there should be...... More than 10 floors. ”

"yes, I see." Hearing the answer, Li Bai showed a clear expression, and then she turned her gaze and looked at it with a slightly frightened look in her eyes.

This is the kind of question to ask at this time...... She must have seen the secret here, right?

Naturally, he was reluctant to accept such a speculation in his heart, but reason told Sù Maran that the only unnaturalness he exposed might have been noticed by the other party at that time.

Although the main tower of Endymion is tall, it does not have many floors because of the high ceiling on each floor, and it seems easy to count its number through the guò window - six, plus a lookout at the top. This meant that it couldn't possibly have more than ten floors of internal space, at least externally, but Lila wasn't lying, she did see the corridor interface that the elevator had skipped more than a dozen times, so there was only one possibility left.

"Lady Maran." Li Bai pulled over a chair and sat down with a smile, as if she was more familiar with this place than the other party.

"We walked through the tower's gate before heading to the hall with the magic elevator just now, if I'm not mistaken...... There must be some mystery to that door, right? ”

"You ......" Maran's heart skipped a half-beat, and she almost directly asked the other party why she could even see this step.

She originally thought that Li Bai had just discovered that the space inside the tower was different from the outside, with a larger real area, but she didn't expect it...... The other party can even guess the deeper mysteries.

"Please don't make too much of it." Different from the smiling face that introduced the dessert just now, Maran's expression was already a little stiff at the moment, "This is one of the biggest and most important mysteries of Endymion, it is related to the safety of everyone living in this ancient castle, if the enemy knows about it, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

"Ah~ I know, I'll keep it in mind." Li Bai didn't seem to see that the other party had an attitude of wanting to stay with him, so he nodded naturally, and then naturally held his left hand: "Then I bother you to urge your majesty, I'm also afraid that I will be bored here for too long, and I can't help but fall asleep." ”

Lila stood on the sidelines, confused, not knowing what they were doing.

She turned her head to look at Jane and found that she still didn't squint.
