The core of Lisbon is the floating city, so there is not much attention paid to the control and management of the outer city. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the outer city, the five-meter-high walls look majestic enough to withstand the attacks of scattered monsters and subhumans, but the actual defensive effectiveness in a major war is debatable - this is just an ordinary wall, and it is not resistant to fossil to mud spells like obsidian. There are countless ways for a transcendent mage to make a hole in such a wall.

The role of ordinary city walls was more to restrict the entry and exit of merchants and prevent tax evasion.

As a magical city, the mage naturally enjoys certain privileges, and the monitoring and prevention of people entering and leaving the outer city are not as strict as those in Jinshui Dragon City, so after paying the entry tax, Green and his party entered the city.

Spacious streets, three-storey red-tiled houses, busy residents, and a view of the city in front of you is similar to that of most cities.

"That's too easy, isn't it? When you are in Dragon City, the guards at the gate will also check the identities of those who enter and exit, but the city gate here is not even checked? Jason, the young man, felt a little surprised that he had entered the city so easily.

"See that?" Green pointed to a tall tower in the middle of the city.

It was an elongated, tall building with a huge sphere at the top.

"That's the Mage Tower?"

"No, that's the [All-Seeing Eye], a surveillance eye that can monitor the whole city."

Hearing Green's words, Jason, the young man in control, couldn't help but take a breath of cold air: "Monitor the whole city? ”

"If there's a crime in the city, it's instantaneous, and then the vigilante will be there with the team within five minutes."

The young man couldn't help frowning: "This kind of thing...... Do we all get peeped at when we go to the toilet? ”

"Not really. The All-Seeing Eye can only monitor the situation on the street, not the inside of the house, as long as you don't defecate on the street. "To put it simply, it's just a satellite monitoring for the city.

Although there is surveillance in the sky, due to the huge gap between the rich and the poor in Lisbon, the security in Lisbon can only be said to be average - although there are not many robberies, there are many thefts.

After entering the city, Green found a hotel near the relatively safe administrative district.

Since it was late, the crowd rested after settling in.

The next morning, Green ordered the rest of the group to move freely, and then Green headed for a carriage full of books to a small castle not far from the hotel, which was a stronghold of the mage's "Great Library".

Lisbon has a Wizards' Council, which is the highest authority in Lisbon, and all administrative officials are appointed by the Wizards' Council.

The parliamentary system makes it difficult for Lisbon to produce dictators, but it also makes Lisbon a breeding ground for magical organizations large and small - somewhat similar to those "political parties" on the planet.

The "Great Library" is one of the top three most influential organizations in Lisbon. The organizational philosophy of the "Great Library" is that "knowledge is priceless", and anyone who can provide a "valuable" new book to the "Great Library" will be able to enter the library within the organization to look through the internal collections.

The higher the value of the book, the longer it can stay in the library, and the specific value is assessed by the gatekeeper of the "big library".

The Great Library has two libraries, one in the Floating City, and the other is where Green is now heading - a building that looks like a castle.

Green drove the carriage to the Great Library.

"Knock knock~" Green knocked on the castle gate.

After a while, there was a "click", and a window appeared on the castle gate, and a gray-haired old man appeared in the window.

Greene: "Hello, I'm a traveling magician, and I'm here with knowledge, hoping to exchange knowledge with you. ”

The old mage looked Green up and down, glancing at the maid behind him.

Green's age looks young, which is a bit minus for a knowledge=age mage, but the strength of a transcendent mage makes up for it.

"What book?" The old mage spoke in an old voice.

"A lot of books from the lost civilization of Anriel." Grimm paused, "I've packed up the entire library of a mage tower. ”

Green's words succeeded in piquing the interest of the goalkeepers.

"Ancient books?"

"Yes." Green nodded, "A lot of ancient books." ”

"Please wait a minute."

The old mage closed the window.

After a while, only a "squeak" was heard, and the gate of the castle opened, and the old mage walked out of it.

"Where's the book?"

"In the carriage." Green pointed to the carriage behind him, "There are a lot of books. ”

The old mage stepped into the carriage and looked through the books.

Civilization will develop, whether it is magic or technology, the further it goes, the stronger it becomes. As a result, the spells in the ancient books do not have any advantage over modern spells, but the books from the Lost Civilization Anriel are an exception. There is no direct connection between the magic of the lost civilization Anriel and modern magic, and although there are similarities, there are also many ways of thinking that are very different from modern magic.

The so-called "stones from other mountains can attack jade", for modern magicians, the lost civilization Anriel is a "stone from other mountains".

The old mage couldn't help but look into one of the spell books of the Burning Hand a little.

The Burning Hand isn't a big deal, and there are the same spells now, but the lost civilization Anriel's theory of magic is very different from modern magic. Therefore, after seeing the "Anriel" version of the Burning Hand, the old mage immediately became interested.

"Almost." Green suddenly reached out and covered the spell books, "I guess there is no doubt about the value of these books, right?" ”

The old mage looked up at Grimm, "Hmm...... OK. You can go in. ”

"I still have these books, so I can't give them to you. Send someone to copy it. Green pointed to the books in the carriage, "I think this amount should allow me to enjoy such privileges." ”

Books are required to enter the Great Library, and if you let the Great Library transcribe it yourself, it will affect the value of the books. But Greene's books are just too many.

The old mage glanced at the books in the carriage: "Yes." ”

After talking to the gatekeeper and determining how long he could stay in the library, Green walked into the library.
