Stephen didn't answer, but lowered his head again, and continued to pack up the various medicinal herbs that were left over from the previous use.

Rondick Brant didn't care about this, but turned to a foundry and ordered, "Help me prepare a clean room, I'll stay here tonight." ”

The foundry looked puzzled, as if he didn't understand why this genius magician, who had always enjoyed a high reputation in the imperial capital, suddenly visited Bear Helmet Town today.

Roddick explained: "Wren said in the letter that he was injured and that he was fine, but the archbishop was still relieved and asked me to come to this town of Bearhelm to pick him up. But now it seems that Wren really can't successfully complete the escort mission. ”

The foundry immediately understood, and hurried to prepare the house.

Roddick looked at Stephen again, then turned away. He didn't look at Dylan the whole time.

Dylan didn't feel the slightest resentment about this, after all, he really hadn't grown enough to make him pay attention to it. Moreover, he has slowly learned to forbear, especially now that shadow magic is forbidden.

Early the next morning, the three of Dylan, escorted by Roddick and several knights with minor injuries, continued to set off towards the imperial capital.

Due to the serious injuries of the Wren Knight, he temporarily stayed in Bear Helm Town to recuperate.

Along the way, Dylan asks Stephen questions about various alchemy knowledge, while Rosen Stark has been around Roddick Brandt, always stating his admiration and admiration for each other.

You must know that today's Brant family has a pivotal position in the Garneman Empire. If he can befriend this young magician of the Brant family, it will definitely be of great benefit to his own education in the City of Light.

In this regard, Dylan just watched coldly, expressing even more disgust and disdain for Rosen's style. What will happen to a guy who only knows how to slap horses and flatter in the future?

In fact, Bear Helmet Town is not too far from the imperial capital, so it only took half a day for the group to reach the most prosperous and magnificent city in the Violet Continent - the City of Holy Light!

Looking at the spectacular scene in front of him, even Stephen, who was as calm and steady as Stephen, couldn't help but let out bursts of admiration at this time.

I saw that on the majestic mountain, a magnificent and huge capital city was built in it, and the buildings in the city showed irregular ups and downs with the direction of the mountain.

The city was surrounded by a towering black wall, and every hundred meters or so above the city wall, there was a huge blockhouse, and countless guards in armor were standing on it, guarding the greatest capital on the Violet Continent.

Looking inside, you can see various castles and churches from time to time, as well as a towering bell tower.

In the deepest and highest part of the imperial capital, a snow-white church stands out, like a holy snowflake on top of a colorful painting. Come to think of it, it's the legendary Cathedral of the Light.

Looking at the northwest corner of the city, in front of a huge platform, dozens of airships come and go, there are constantly unloading goods, and many goods are packed, a busy and prosperous scene.

Dylan had read in books that this kind of airship was used to load goods and travel back and forth between cities on the continent in normal times. But once in time of war, these airships were able to carry war materials, weapons, and soldiers who fought in battle.

Seeing the different degrees of amazement of the three children, Roddick couldn't help but sneer: "It's really a group of turtles who have never seen the world." ”

But he didn't know that anyone who saw the City of Light for the first time would be shocked by its imposing grandeur. And Roddick Brandt naturally doesn't feel much because he has lived here since he was a child.

Soon, the group arrived at a trading town at the foot of the mountains of the imperial capital, where there was a stable specially set up for people entering the city, and for only two gold coins, it would help you get a month's worth of horses.

Of course, some of the more special mounts, such as Roddick, a unicorn that was bought at a great price, are much more expensive to care for, usually requiring five or six gold coins.

Due to the clear laws of the City of Light, except for the military horses and the royal mounts, no mounts are allowed to be used for riding in the city, only horses are allowed to pull goods, so the stable outside the city has always been very good.

As soon as the group arrived at the stable, an enthusiastic groom hurriedly ran over: "Ouch, Master Brant is back, is the road going well?"

Roddick nodded expressionlessly, and then handed the groom six shiny gold coins. The groom immediately smiled and took the gold coin, and then slowly pulled the snow-white unicorns into a more spacious and tidy single room with great skill.

Dylan and his party made their way through the trading town towards the gates of the City of Light.

When I came to the gate and looked up, I saw that the city gate was about thirty meters high and more than twenty meters wide, and there were dozens of giant dragon crossbows above the city gate, which were several times larger than those seen in Bear Helmet Town.

Nearly a hundred guards in well-dressed battle armor stood neatly on both sides of the city gate at this time, and if anyone dared to make trouble at the gate of the imperial capital, they would be subdued in an instant.

Further inside, at the entrance of the city gate, there is a golden statue dozens of meters high on the left and right. On one side is a valiant warrior with a sword in front of him, and on the other is a female mage wearing a robe and holding a staff.

Dylan had also heard of the two men, the warrior was the founding general of the Garneman Empire, named Solo Banli, and the female mage was the most famous fire magister in the history of the empire, named Amanda Jones.

Although Dylan had not seen these two great heroes in the history of Ghanneman, he could still feel an invincible momentum from the expressions and movements of their statues.

The prosecutor guarding the city, when he saw Roddick's originally tense face, couldn't help but show a few flattering smiles: "Young Master Brandt, you're back!"

And Brant was also extremely generous, and casually gave the prosecutor three gold coins: "Take it and buy a few good drinks." ”

You must know that for an ordinary family in the Garneman Empire, a gold coin can basically cover a month's expenses. Roddick gave three gold coins so generously, and the prosecutor was naturally happy.

With a nobleman of Brant's status opening the way, the group passed through the gate with great ease and entered the city of light.

As soon as he entered the city, Dylan smelled countless strong scents. There is the fragrance of a flower shop not far away, the smell of barbecue sold on the roadside, and the most attractive wine. Dylan couldn't help but take a deep breath of the enchanting taste.

Since he began practicing shadow spells, Dylan's senses have become more and more acute, and even in the middle of noisy cities, he can still distinguish the different sources of various sounds very clearly. For example, the sound of bargaining in the shop, the sound of the blacksmith shop tapping on metal in the distance, and the whispered laughter of several young girls staring at Roddick not far away.
