Chapter 1073: Central Territory (1)

The Central Territory, the most central realm in the entire alien territory, most of the people living in the Central Territory are the higher races, the top races are the top races, and the rest of the lower races are all vassals of these races. And in the center of the entire central territory lives the Huang clan, one of the eight royal families.

The central territory is like the imperial capital of another race, gathering many big races here, with strict hierarchies, and the coercion of the presbyterian council, the entire territory becomes a whole, showing a different style from the outside. When An Xiaoyu entered the Central Territory, she was not able to go directly to the northwest.

Because she learned that the entire Central Territory was surrounded by a formation, and she could only enter through the four gates. Of course, it is quite easy for An Xiaoyu to break through the formation, but that will definitely attract the attention of the aliens, so An Xiaoyu can only choose to go through the main gate.

"This group of guys, won't they get four more doors? It's not good to just let us go northwest. An Xiaoyu whispered while queuing.

Yinggett stood next to him and explained: "My lord, it is said that this formation is called the Four Directions, and the entire composition is established around the four directions, so it can only open the door in the weakest part of the formation, and the four directions are in the southeast, northeast, southwest and northwest, so the weakest part of the formation is in the southeast and northwest. ”

An Xiaoyu rolled her eyes: "Where did you hear this?" ”

Shadow Got said, "I just talked to a higher race over there, and it is said that they are a race in the Central Territory, and this time they are going back from outside. ”

"This statement must be a statement used by the Huang clan to fool other races, and I can't believe this kind of statement in the future. What four directions to establish a formation, only in the weak place can the door be opened. Even if it was really a formation in four directions, it would never open the door where the formation was weak. ”

"Why?" Shadow was puzzled.

"After all, the formation is a human thing, and many races don't understand the formation thing, so they will be confused. In fact, the weakness of the formation is not like when you hold a stick, the place where your hand holds it is the most stable place, and it is also the place with the least changes, while the tip of the stick that extends outward can fly around, which is very flexible. If you want to open the door, it is best to find the most stable place in the formation, because that place is the most skilled and flexible control of the person who arranges the formation. ”

Shadowgrid nodded, secretly jotted down these things, and then couldn't help but ask; "My lord, if you tell me this, aren't you afraid that I will become an enemy of the empire in the future and use this against you?"

An Xiaoyu smiled: "If the empire is really so easy to deal with, will you still divide half of the continent out?" Let me tell you, in the system of cultivation, the divine cultivation is the highest, and the body cultivation and the martial cultivation are equally divided, among which the martial cultivation is self-contained, although the exercises are different, but the system and the fighting method are the same system. ”

"Body cultivation is different, divided into sorcerers, arcane mages, vow-keepers, and mind charmers, and the four schools of practice are different. Among them, the means of the precept keeper are the highest, the arcane mage is second, the wizard is evil and abnormal, and the mind puzzler is not as good as the genre at all. Wizards and mages are mostly distributed here, and the Ringbearers and Mind Seducers are in the Empire. The fixed formation is the means of the arcane mage, and they have been developing in the territory of all races for ten thousand years, so it can be said that there is no progress at all. ”

"If the current body cultivation of the empire arranges the formation, can it be so simple for you to find the weak point of the formation? The changes in the formation are enough for you to bear. And this formation in the Central Territory, do you really think it's that simple? The so-called quadrangular array is also used to confuse you, so that you deliberately think that the weak points of the formation are around. ”

Shadowgot wondered, "What about that?" Where are the weak points? ”

An Xiaoyu pointed to the top: "It's either at the top of the formation, or it's underground." ”

Shadow Gert was speechless, humans are really cunning, even humans who grew up in the territory of all races are so right-hearted, if Shadow Gert himself, he would really be fooled.

An Xiaoyu continued: "And the formation is already like a chicken rib in the eyes of human beings, what it can do, technology can also do. What it can't do, technology can do. It's like this formation, with only a few video surveillance, it can completely control the movement of all living beings who enter the territory. ”

Shadow Getter didn't know what video surveillance was, but it sounded very powerful, and he had a lot of awe for the human empire, and of course, there was also a lot of curiosity. It is still struggling with whether to enter the empire with An Xiaoyu in the future.

But now they have to worry about whether they can enter the Central Territory.

The four gates of the Central Territory are so big, and when they are inspected one by one, the whole line is lined up in a long line, and there is no end in sight. An Xiaoyu They have been waiting for three days before they can wait from the end of the line to the middle of the team, and it is roughly estimated that there are still more than three days to wait.

And at night, the Central Territory is more than allowed to enter, and at night they have to stop work and rest where they are. This waiting road is quite prosperous, walking on the side of the road to sell things abound, although every other section of the road to sell things are similar, but you can't stand in line!

With such a long line, you can't leave the line, and you have to start lining up from the back again, and if you see something good before, you won't be able to go back and buy it, so you still have to buy it next time you see you. And on the alien side, to be honest, there are not many kinds of goods.

It's not fruit, it's smoked meat, and the staple food is bread, flatbread, or some other messy soup. Especially for something like thick soup, An Xiaoyu was extremely disgusted. It was a soup made of various ingredients, and it was not at all the same as the soup of the Empire, and if An whispered, they could only be regarded as paste.

The viscous soup is cut with all kinds of fruits, vegetables and meat, and there is a lot of milk in the soup, because of the evaporation of water, the milk flavor is very strong, put salt and sugar, and match the original microribbon of the ingredients, so that An Xiaoyu feels disgusted when she smells the taste.

However, Shadow Gett and Iwaya are very fond of this kind of food, and they can make a meal with bread without even eating meat, and finally wipe the plate clean with bread. Every time she eats, An Xiaoyu looks at them as if she is being tortured, so that she has no appetite at all.

Fortunately, An Xiaoyu has now broken the seal, and the spiritual power in her body is self-contained, and she can swallow essence from heaven and earth to replenish the needs of her body, so she simply chose not to eat. When you eat, I close my five senses, and you can just call me after eating.

In this way, five days passed, and by the fifth day, An Xiaoyu and the others could already see the gates and gates of the Central Territory in the distance. There is also a formation barrier that penetrates into the sky, and the whole is a faint earthy yellow, which is estimated to be a formation set up according to the energy of the Huang clan.

And at this distance, you can clearly feel the person in front of you moving. The team behind sometimes moves a large distance in half a day, because after all, there is a delay, and not every race can move quickly, for example, An Xiaoyu saw a kind of lying on the ground, only one step in half a day, and every time they move, they have to be helped by the race next to them to carry them over.

Seeing that it was about to wait until he entered the city, as long as he entered the city and passed through the city, he would be able to enter the vast area in the central territory, but on the evening of the fifth day, an alien wearing an earthy yellow robe suddenly flew to the city gate.

"From now on, the Central Territory is closed to traffic! No race is allowed in the Central Territory! ”

An Xiaoyu frowned suddenly, looked at this alien race, and said softly: "Huang clan? Why is the Central Territory banned? Isn't that a blockage? ”

Yinggett asked, "My lord, have you seen the Huang Clan?" ”

An Xiaoyu nodded, of course she had seen the Huang family, Huang Wuyi had also saved her life, and not only in this life, she had also seen Huang Wuyi in her previous life, how could she not know the Huang family? But the Huang pseudo-god suddenly blocked the central territory? This made An Xiaoyu a little confused, could it be that the Huang clan knew the news of his appearance?

As soon as the words of the Huang clan came out, the other races also didn't understand, some of them were originally people of the central territory, and now they were finally about to get to the door, but they were stopped outside, how could they not be anxious? So a race asked, "My lord, I don't know why the door is closed?" How long will this closure last? ”

The Huang clan glanced at the questioning and said, "Oh, it turned out to be the Chemeng clan, and the time for the closure of the door is uncertain, as for why the door is closed, is this what you should ask?" ”

An Xiaoyu saw that there might not be any chance to know what was going on in the Central Territory, so he sighed helplessly and said: "It seems that there may be some serious problems inside, but if the Huang Clan doesn't say it, it is impossible for us to know what is going on, I'm afraid it will be difficult to enter the Central Territory." ”

Shadowgot frowned, "So what do we do now?" ”

An Xiaoyu shook his head and said: "I don't know, let's wait and see, maybe we can open the door after waiting, after all, the Huang clan is such a big race, even if something happens, it should be solved quickly, wait a few days and see." ”

They have to wait, many other races can't wait, some of them want to enter the Central Territory to make a living, some have goods that they want to sell in the Central Territory, or they want to go to the Central Territory to find some masters or treasures, these things can't wait.

In case you wait for ten days and half a month, the daylilies are cold, you don't find a job, the goods are rotten in the car before they are sold, and you want to find a master to solve the problem, and your family is slaughtered by the enemy before you open the door, such things are not nothing, but they abound.

So after hearing that the Central Territory was closed, many races had quite ugly faces, turned around and left the team. After all, the entire Central Territory has been formed for so many years, and there is not much time to close the door. There is no necessary reason, the Huang clan will never choose to close the door this way.

Once the central territory closes the door, it will definitely mean that there is something inside the territory that is difficult for the Huang clan to solve, and they don't dare to expect the central territory to open the door soon, after all, they still have necessary things to do! I've been waiting for days to enter the city, and I can't delay any longer.

As far as the eye could see, I saw that for a time the whole long queue gradually broke down, and there were aliens in various places who turned to leave, and then scattered into the mountains and forests, and the roadside vendors knew that the future business might not be easy to do, so they all shifted their positions, and many disappeared.

The line shrank at a terrible rate, and in the end there were only a few alien races left in the Central Territory, and they didn't want to go to other cities for a while to find friends to live in, so they set up camp outside the gate, and there was no need to queue up, there were not many in total.

There are also some hopeful outsiders like An Xiaoyu, who have all kinds of races, and they follow these big races loosely, and they also settle down outside the city gate. An Xiaoyu and they found a remote corner, opened the tent, and did not hang a curtain, An Xiaoyu and Yanya sat cross-legged in it, like two statues of gods.

Shadow Gett stood guard at the gate, looking at the city gate in the distance, puzzled in his heart, and asked in a low voice, "My lord, do you want to sneak in?" ”

An Xiaoyu shook his head: "This time we entered the Central Territory to do something big, the place where the ancestors of humanity sat down, it was not a simple place. If you want to enter the city, it is best to keep a low profile and not cause any trouble, otherwise you will be targeted as soon as you enter the door, which is the most unlucky. ”

Shadowgot nodded, also thinking of the key to it, and didn't say anything more about entering the city. But An Xiaoyu continued: "But this is also a good opportunity for us, take the opportunity to learn more about the Central Territory, you go and walk around more, and order anything with those local races." ”

Shadow Gett was familiar with this matter, and when it was on the road, it was doing the work of gathering intelligence, and even if it couldn't talk to the clans of those races and chat with a few followers, it could learn a lot of things, so it was ordered to leave.

When it comes to espionage, the nature of the Shadow Demon plays a decisive role, and it is a natural spy. With the lack of supplies on his body, he walked over with the reason that he wanted to buy some things from other races, and began to get close to the followers of these races, whether he sold it or not, he could always talk a little bit.

As we chatted, we became familiar with it. Now that the real central territory has been sealed off, and the higher races are stationed, they are all busy asking what is going on inside, but these retinues are idle, very free, and willing to say something to Shadowgot.

Since the closure of the door, they have talked about the Central Territory, as long as Shadow Gett shows a little yearning for the Central Territory, these lower races can live in it as a subordinate, they will suddenly be complacent, completely vain, and brag about Shadow Get.

They didn't lie too much, and most of the things they said were true, but they weren't necessarily the ones they had experienced. For example, there is an entourage that boasts that he once went to the best Qinglou to drink flower wine, and it may be that he accompanied their young master.

Shadow Got a lot of news along the way. An Xiaoyu's thoughts followed Shadow Gett all the time, and she also heard the words that Shadow Gett heard. Gradually, I have a clear understanding of the Central Territory, and it seems that I still underestimated the Central Territory before.

The interior of the Central Territory presents a three-tiered cake structure. The outermost layer is where the most ordinary higher races live, the second layer is the residence of the top races, and the innermost layer, of course, is the residence of the Huang race, which is never open to the public.

In addition to the territory of the Huang tribe, the other two layers are divided into four regions, according to the southeast, northeast, southwest, and northwest, and each area has the main race, and the eight main races occupy eight areas and are responsible for managing the order of this area.

Of course, the main race will change, and according to the strength of the race, there will be a competition every once in a while to determine which race the main race is. After all, everyone is a high-level race, a top race, unless the power gap is too obvious, who will be willing to be led by others?

The management of the affairs of any region is entrusted to the main race, including industry, agriculture, commerce and martial arts, etc., with sufficient oil and water, and monstrous authority. However, the main race is not single-handedly covering the sky in the territory, and the summary involves the life of the lower race, even if it is the life of their vassal lower race, it has to go through the branch of the Presbyterian Church.

Each district will have a chapter, and the chapter will be responsible for the most important matters in the whole area, such as ethnic conflicts, such as life disputes, such as overall land rights, and just like other presbyterian stations, to manage contractual relations and some government affairs in the area.

Of course, the life of the lower race will not be really cared for by any race, saying that it is in charge, in fact, if the high race and the top race really kill the lower clan under their own subordinates, they only need to report it to the Council of Elders, and it is normal to record it if it is not excessive.

And in addition to the main race and the branch of the Council of Elders, there will be a master of the Huang clan in each region to suppress it, usually not very in charge of things, but if there is really a big mess, to the Council of Elders and a big race can not solve the matter, they will come forward directly, and if they can solve it, they will have the final say, and if they can't solve it, they will report to the Huang clan.

Under such a strict hierarchical management, coupled with the suppression of bloodlines, the central territory can be said to have formed a very stable political structure and living environment, basically reaching a balance that is not quite the same as that of the imperial capital of the empire. It is also the same system that governs the three hundred and sixty-five cities of the entire Central Territory.

The more An Xiaoyu listened, the more she felt that she might have thought too stupidly about the alien race before, since the Huang clan had secretly reconciled with humans, and Huang Wuyi often went in and out of the empire, how could he not learn something useful?
