Chapter 519: Burning Sun City

Dylan stood in the palace of Yangyan City, and felt a little emotional for a while.

He had just met the king of the Guran Empire, but he didn't expect that the famous king to be very polite to him, I don't have the kind of majestic posture that I rumored, but it gives people a sense of closeness and easy-going.

And the king agreed to Dylan's proposal and demand, promising to send men into the depths of the desert this afternoon to mine enough sunstone.

Dylan walked out of the palace and stood on an observation deck, looking at the city below, and couldn't help but be amazed by this "city of the sun".

In fact, the environment around Yanyang City is not very good, with deserts on both sides, mountains on one side and water on the other.

However, even in such a desolate environment, the ancestors of the Guran Empire built a magnificent and wonderful capital here.

To say that the east side of Yanyang City is leaning on a big mountain, in fact, it is not very accurate, because there is not a single grass or tree on that mountain, it is more like a huge stone wall.

It's just that the surface of the stone wall is undulating like a wave, leaving countless traces of the wind blowing on it.

But in such a landscape, the ancestors of the Guran Empire still relied on the topography and built an incredible city on it.

But I saw that between the two stone walls not far away, there was a majestic stone bridge, connecting the two ends, and the people on the bridge were very busy.

On one side of the bridge, a waterfall cascades down from a crack in the rock, and although the water is not very large, the water column scatters into rain in mid-air, forming a misty mist, and the sun reflects a brilliant rainbow, thus forming a strange scene of two bridges side by side.

Underneath the stone bridge, there is a large field where fruits and vegetables flourish, and the misty mist falling from the sky is the best way to irrigate.

Looking into the distance, in the center of Burning Sun City, there was a huge square, and in the center of the square, a huge iron needle was inserted obliquely. And on all sides of the square, there are dozens of towering stone monuments.

I heard that Oscar introduced it before, it was the "sundial" of Burning Sun City, and from the point of the shadow of the iron needle, you can judge the time of day.

Dylan later learned that there was no bell tower built in the city, because it was completely dependent on the "sundial" that he could determine the exact time.

In this way, Dylan also has to sigh that the ancestors of the Gulan Empire are indeed very smart.

He turned his head again and looked at the most exquisite and gorgeous palace of the Gulan Empire, thinking in his heart that if it were not for the strong rise of the Ganeman Empire back then, perhaps the Gulan Empire would become the strongest empire in the Violet Continent.

Just as he was thinking about it, Oscar's voice came from behind him: "You guy, how should you thank me this time?"

Dylan turned around and said with a smile, "Do you still need to be so polite between you and me? Don't you forget, you were so embarrassed back then......"

Seeing that Dylan was going to continue, Oscar suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly covered Dylan's mouth, lowered his voice and said: "There is no need to mention the things of the year!"

As he spoke, he looked over to a few guards not far away, fearing that they would hear their conversation.

Dylan slowly broke Oscar's hand and said with a smile: "So you know it's a shame!

Oscar pretended to be angry and glared at Dylan: "Count you ruthless!"

Dylan's face turned straight and brought the topic back to business: "Fifteen tons of sunstone, how long will it take to mine it at the earliest?"

Oscar calculated a little and said, "If you add the time it takes to transport it back, it may take three days at the earliest!"

"Three days?" Dylan couldn't help frowning, "Can't it be faster?"

Oscar gave him a blank look: "Do you think it is so easy to mine sunstone? Professional miners not only have to face the heat, but also have to deal with all kinds of dangers in the desert at any time. ”

"Danger?" Dylan looked surprised, he didn't know what dangers existed in the desert.

Oscar nodded solemnly: "There are many dangers in the desert, you told you before, don't feel that the desert is desolate, it seems that there is nothing but the yellow sand in the sky, you know, after the yellow sand is another world!"

Hearing this, Dylan suddenly became interested and hurriedly pricked up his ears to listen.

It turns out that under the golden sand, there are a large number of creatures, and there are many types. Some of them are huge, reaching hundreds of meters in height, while others are extremely small, about half a palm.

Some of these creatures are relatively docile and generally do not take the initiative to hurt people, but some are irritable and will pounce on them as soon as they notice the smell of humans.

Therefore, travelers walking in the desert, or miners mining veins, are often attacked by some dangerous creatures, resulting in injuries and even deaths.

Because of this, every time the Guran Empire sent a team of miners out to mine, a large number of troops would accompany them, just to ensure the safety of the workers, after all, these miners also have families to take care of, if they die in the vast desert, who should take care of the wives and children and parents left behind?

After listening to Oscar's introduction, Dylan couldn't help but ask with some concern: "Generally speaking, is there a high probability of encountering those dangerous creatures?"

Oscar replied: "Normally, there are more than ten cases every year, about 30% of the time." ”

Dylan frowned slightly: "Sancheng? is so high, it seems that there is still a relatively big risk!"

You must know that Dylan needs a lot of sunstone this time, and the time is relatively tight, so it can be said that there is no room for error.

He thought for a moment and said to Oscar, "Otherwise." We go with the mining team, so that we can ensure the safety of the large army and keep us informed of the progress of the mining. ”

Oscar hesitated, then nodded.

Dylan looked at him with a smirk, "Don't you need to ask your father for advice?"

Oscar said angrily, "Do you still think I'm the ignorant teenager I was a few years ago?".

The two looked at each other, then laughed together.

Dylan knew in his heart that he didn't have much time to waste, because the king of hell was not stupid, and if he didn't feel Dylan's movement for a long time, he would definitely be suspicious. Therefore, he must hurry up and build that huge teleportation circle as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night.
