When he arrived at Spire City in the early hours of the morning, Archen was taken aback by the grandeur of the walls and gained a new understanding of the world.

When he was in Rust Village, he felt that the world was Middle-earth at best. Now that I've seen the white stone pagoda of the magicians, this world and this city have a bit of a 'Ilancui' (a city with high towers and high walls) in Aichen's eyes.

Led by the groping man, the group arrived in front of the second tower of Spire City, the Redstone Tower, also known as the Redstone Library.

In terms of height and floor space, this brick-red giant tower is far superior to the white stone tower. If the White Stone Tower is a vegetarian woman who likes yoga and jogging, the Red Stone Tower is a 200-pound fat man who never leaves the American burger.

The Kremlin, which is adjacent to Russia's Red Square, is the most famous Western red building in Aichen's mind, and in terms of scale, it can be regarded as a complete defeat to the red stone tower in front of him.

Ai Chen stood under a circle of ancient red walls outside the giant tower, lightly touching the wall, and a trace of emotion suddenly flashed in his head.

As a young man who had hardly traveled far from home, he felt the oppressive power of the human landscape for the first time.

"I seem to have a new hobby!" Ai Chen stood under the wall with an excited expression, and said to himself, "I want to see more and more magnificent buildings and walls!" ”

Shanti and Madame Bi looked at him with a frown, worried about his mental health issues.

It was now nine or ten o'clock in the morning, and there was a constant stream of people entering and leaving the redstone tower, mostly scholars and servants. Mrs. Bi stopped this way, and within a few minutes, a group of scholars were attracted to watch.

These people pointed fingers, and only regarded Lady Bi as a novelty, but did not cause any other disturbances. Aichen understood this, after all, this is a world with magicians, and at a glance, he can see the spire of the White Stone Pagoda ten blocks away. Whenever something strange happens in the city, everyone will blame it on the magician, thinking that they are doing ghosts.

Before the crowd of onlookers could gather too much, a middle-aged bachelor wearing a purple coarse cloth robe came over and asked Aichen and the others to leave.

"Most of the Bachelors in the Redstone Tower suffer from severe mental breakdowns, and the slightest bit of noise causes headaches. If you don't have anything important, go and stand in front of the shop across the street, and by the way, you can help the ones who can't do it and get some business. ”

Seeing that this person was quite polite, Ai Chen immediately decided to ask him to help introduce the leader of this place, that is, the director of the library. By the way, he also said his identity as the 'Sage in the Clouds'. With the blessing of the bird's cloak, he believed that this meeting would definitely convince the people here to confirm his identity.

The middle-aged bachelor seemed to have a good cultivation. Although he was very displeased after hearing the word sage in the clouds, he politely agreed to help spread the word.

"Come in with me, but it's hard to say if the curator wants to see you."

Unlike the White Stone Tower, the Red Stone Tower is a large single structure with only one tower, which is comparable in scale to several skyscrapers.

Shanti has been in the city a few times before, basically accompanying friends to sell things, and then using the money earned to walk around and play, and the Red Stone Tower has seen it many times. I don't think it's new.

Although Mrs. Bi is a person from the martial arts world, she has lived in S City for many days and watched a lot of documentaries, so she is basically not too surprised by the large buildings.

Only Ai Chen, after entering the gate, his eyes did not stop, looking up and down, his neck was sore after a while.

The middle-aged bachelor didn't bother to say anything, so he brought the person to the gate of the tower, instructed him to 'stay put', and then went into the tower to find someone.

Aichen stood at the foot of the tower, and if he didn't tilt his head back to the limit, he couldn't see the spire at all. Some young scholars passing by covered their mouths and snickered when they saw him like this, obviously seeing through his identity as a 'countryman'. He didn't think about it, and made a bet with Shanti, "There are definitely more than thirty 'elevators' in this tower!" ”

After a while, the owner of the library came, a bearded man in a heavy red robe, in his fifties, but in a terrible state of mind, with terrible bags under his eyes beyond his age, and the corners of his mouth turned down to look unhappy to be called out.

The middle-aged scholar in the purple robe followed behind and gestured to Ai Chen, meaning to say, 'The curator is in a bad mood, don't talk nonsense'.

Ai Chen admired that he could understand this gesture, but he couldn't do what this middle-aged bachelor wanted, he still had to say what he had to say.

Just as he was about to say 'Hello, I'm the Sage in the Clouds' to the unhappy curator, the other party took the lead and asked, "Is that you calling yourself the Sage in the Clouds?" ”

"Uh, it's me, my name is Aichen. This time I came to tell ......."

Before Aichen finished speaking, the curator waved his hand impatiently.

"You don't have to say it. The sorcerers who call themselves the Sages of the Clouds have to be treated here a year, especially after the invention of the truth potion in the White Stone Tower, and liars and fanatics have come to us. According to the rules, you need to prove yourself in an eloquence class. I wonder if you'd like to? ”

"Yes. But what is an eloquence lesson? I have a way to prove my identity, as long as you're willing to give me a little time to figure it out......"

"There's no time." Once again, the curator had planned Aichen's words, "The next eloquence lesson will be heard in the Great Council on the top floor in ten minutes. It will take some time just to make the elevator up, so you should hurry up. ”

Leaving this sentence, the curator hurried out of the door, as if he had other important things to deal with.

The middle-aged bachelor pouted at the gate of the Red Stone Tower, "Come on, I'll take you to the eloquence class." It's our rule here, just like the magician has to drink the elixir. As long as you can win the debate class, we believe that you are a wise man in the clouds and can grant you a request. However, there is no precedent for success in the ugly words ahead. ”

Aichen didn't think he was eloquent. But the curators of the other people were far away, and I had to go to the eloquence class first. It's really not good, it's a big deal to tie up the curator and take him to the empty island for a spin.

No one in this world has ever landed on the Sky Island, so I guess they will believe it when the time comes.

The elevator driven by the 'Stone Statue Power' was quite slow, and it took a full twelve minutes to reach the roof.

The speech class had begun, and as soon as I reached the top floor, I heard a group of people arguing about something in the large room not far away.

Aichen finally understood why such a class was placed on the top floor. Without him, it's too noisy. It is also only possible to reduce the impact on other floors if classes are held on the top floor.
