Chapter 824: The City of Heaven
As a giant city in the most central area of the Inner Domain, recognized as the strongest force among the ten major forces, and where the sect of the Heavenly Palace is located, the City of Tongtian has always had a very lofty and unique position in the Inner Domain.
This status is not only reflected in reputation, but also in actual manifestation.
Compared to other cities in the Inner Realm, the city of Babel is a completely different concept in terms of land area and the scale of the city construction.
In terms of size, if those marginal cities in the inner region are one grade, ordinary cities are the second grade, and the Four Holy Cities are the third grade, but when they reach the Tongtian City, they still have to be one grade between them and the Four Holy Cities, and they are ranked the fifth grade.
However, if we distinguish from the scale of the buildings in the castle, the difference between the other castles and the city of Babel is even more difficult to say.
In other cities, even in the Four Holy Cities, it is rare to see buildings with more than five floors, and most of the buildings are only between two and three floors, and as for the residential houses, they are mainly one-storey.
Not counting the Heavenly City, among the tens of thousands of cities in the entire inner region, the tallest building is only eight floors.
It is a restaurant located in the Qinglong Holy City, the name of the restaurant is called 'the first floor in the world', it is said that the original intention of setting up this plaque is to show that the restaurant is not only the first in the world in terms of the taste of the dishes, but also the height of the restaurant itself is also the first in the world!
If the city of Babel is excluded, there is nothing wrong with the statement that it is the 'first floor in the world'.
But if the city of Babel is also counted, the height of the 'first floor in the world' may not even be ranked in the top 100.
In the city of Babel, the core city of the inner region, there are many buildings with more than ten floors!
Regardless of the streets and alleys, four- and five-storey buildings are the mainstream building heights in the city of Babel, as for one- and two-storey mansions...... Basically, only the truly powerful and powerful people in the city of Babel can live there.
Because the floor area is too large, and the usable area is too small......
Like other castles, the buildings in the city are made of timber and are built in a staggered manner.
It stands to reason that in terms of the hardness of the wood and its own toughness, building a height of three or four layers is already the limit of its bearing, once it exceeds this height, safety can not be effectively guaranteed, but such an easy-to-understand truth is completely unworkable in the city of Tongtian.
It's not that the wood will be harder when it reaches the city of Babel, but because ...... When the city of Babel is building those high-rise buildings, it will use runemasters to make corresponding inscriptions on the wood!
The use of inscriptions to absorb the vitality between heaven and earth to enhance the resistance and toughness of the wood itself is not very clever and can be thought of by everyone, but it is obviously not something that everyone can do......
At least...... How could a rune master with a noble status do such a lowly carpenter job?
But in the city of Babel, this impossible state has really been realized.
As a result, four- or five-storey buildings began to become the regular building height of the city, and buildings with more than ten floors could be seen everywhere in the city, and the most important impact of this was that the number of people that the city could carry was far more than that of other cities!
If the number of people that an ordinary city can carry is one unit for the same area, then the number of people that Babel City can carry can reach four or five units!
Coupled with the vast area of the city itself, the number of permanent residents in the city has exceeded 30 million!
This is also the main reason why the Heavenly Palace is not very keen on taking over the Four Holy Cities.
Even if it is just a city that leads to heaven, it is enough to support the vigorous continuation of the Heavenly Palace.
Therefore, in the Inner Realms, no matter what the so-called 'firsts' are discussed, everyone will instinctively exclude Babel, and the exclusion will be taken for granted.
The name of the 'first floor in the world' in the Qinglong Holy City is naturally recognized by the world for this reason.
Despite being in the same Inner Domain, Babel City is more like being in two completely different worlds from the entire Inner Domain, and this huge difference also causes the inhabitants of Babel City to have an indescribable sense of superiority.
In short, this is the place where the essence of the inner region gathers, and it carries the most unique geographical conditions and the environment for the growth of the inner region.
The people here claim to be orthodox in the inner region, and as for the inhabitants of the other cities, in their eyes, they are all barbarians and outsiders.
However, in the early morning of one day, the sun had just risen half of its body from the horizon, and the darkness on the horizon had not yet been completely swept away, and it was the time of the day when people slept the most dead and were also the most tired, and a group of guys who belonged to the barbarians in the eyes of the residents of the city of Babel flew over the walls of the city of Babel!
As the sect of the Heavenly Palace, Tongtian City has some rules that are completely different from other cities in the Inner Domain.
For example, the sky above the city is a no-fly zone, even if a strong person at the level of the Holy King comes to the city of Tongtian, when he is about a kilometer away from the city of Tongtian, he must fall to the ground and enter the city by foot or by car, which is regarded as respect for the city of Tongtian and the palace of Jietian.
For countless years, no one dared to offend this rule.
Because anyone who tried to show his personality and offend this rule had already been killed by the powerhouse of the Heavenly Palace at the first time.
The so-called respect always needs enough strength to maintain.
But on such an ordinary morning, there were once again people who dared to violate this rule, and not one or two, but more than four hundred people!
Under normal circumstances, if there is such a person who violates the rules of the Heavenly City, then the city guards on the city wall who belong to the Heavenly Palace will definitely be able to find out and make relevant responses.
However, due to the long period of peace, the city of Babel has not encountered similar provocations or people who do not follow the rules for many years, so that the city guard troops used by the Heavenly Palace to maintain the daily stability of the city have long lost the vigilance and discipline that an army should have.
It was early in the morning, and the guards who were supposed to be in charge of guarding the city wall were curled up behind the battlements of the city wall and squinting their eyes to make up for sleep, not even realizing that there were hundreds of intruders in the area they were guarding!
"According to what we agreed on the road, everyone was divided into nine groups according to their respective forces, and they attacked the headquarters of the Heavenly Palace from different directions! The purpose of this attack was to give the Holy Kings an opportunity to break into the Tower of Babel, and secondly, to ...... It is to weaken the Heavenly Palace as much as possible, so that after this incident is over, the Heavenly Palace will not have the strength to retaliate against us! ”
Li Jue hovered in mid-air, looked back at everyone, and said in a deep voice.
All the Saint Kings nodded in unison, their eyes full of excitement and battle intent!
At their level, there are few battles that can arouse their emotions so strongly, and attacking the Heavenly Palace can obviously achieve such an effect!
