294 Exposed
A few days later, the caravan arrived in Thunder City.
"Your Excellency, Thunder City is the largest city in the Northwest Province, and the headquarters of the Crow Mage Alliance is also here, so there must be something you want." Bard said to Chen Yi diligently.
In the past few days, he has discovered that this powerhouse, who is at least at the rank of archmage, does not understand many worldly things. It is estimated that he is a mage hiding in a corner and cultivating.
In fact, there are not a few mages who have escaped from the world like this. There are many mages who are obsessed with research and do not like to be disturbed, and this kind of people will often build mage towers in inaccessible places and stay there for decades.
In his eyes, this senior who called himself Amos was such an old monster.
As for the girl who has been following the other party all the time, with a noble temperament and a beautiful beauty, it is obvious that she is the daughter of a nobleman from which country this old monster has captured, and she can't even understand the words, which is really pitiful.
Of course, Bard didn't have the idea of rescuing this beautiful girl, and with his strength, he wanted to save people under the hands of an archmage, which was a long life.
Chen Yi looked at the heavily guarded city gate, and in it, there were also the figures of the mage and the shepherd. I sighed in my heart, the demon knight and the blue-haired witch have really done a lot of evil, and everyone here is in danger.
Just yesterday, Bard received news that the two demons that came out of the abyss, that is, the two demon knights, were intercepted by several mages, and in a big battle, the two demon knights were injured and fled.
Then, they infiltrated a city, sacrificed the entire city, killed tens of thousands of people, summoned an evil demon, killed all the mages who were chasing them, and turned the surrounding area upside down.
The archbishop of the Temple of War, who was originally located in Thunder City, was alarmed and personally dispatched to suppress the terrible demon.
In this case, the city defense of Thunder City is naturally extremely strict. Many of them were blocked from the city and were not allowed to enter.
Fortunately, this caravan seemed to have a lot to do with Thunder City, and the inspection was not so strict, and the leading priest only held a crystal ball and shook it at him, and did not find anything unusual, so he let them into the city.
During the whole process, Phyllis was calm on the surface, but she was actually extremely nervous inside.
Although she couldn't understand Bard's words, she could understand Chen Yi's words.
Chen Yi used the pendant to communicate with Bard, which had the effect of being fluent in language. In other words, what he said sounded to Bard was his own native dialect. To Phyllis's ears, it was the lingua franca of the West Coast.
She herself is a smart girl in ice and snow, and from Chen Yi's words alone, she roughly guessed a fact - people in this world regard themselves as mortal enemies of people from other worlds.
Being inside the enemy, if her identity is exposed, it will definitely be a dead end, and I am afraid that even Chen Yi will not be able to protect her.
Therefore, when the priest was detecting with a crystal ball just now, she was extremely nervous, and the expression on her face was almost unbearable. As soon as the people left, their backs were wet with cold sweat.
After entering the city gate, Phyllis relaxed a little, and soon she was attracted by the scene inside the city.
The people here are not much different from themselves in appearance. But the style of clothing is completely different.
She had to admit that this was a giant city on a scale never seen before. She used to think that Wang Du was already a first-class big city in the world, but compared to the Thunder City in front of her, it was far inferior.
Whether it is the scale of the street or the style of the building, it presents a majestic bearing.
There was a rush of excitement in her heart, this is what an empire should be.
Even the ordinary people walking on the street had confident and calm expressions on their faces, and although they would avoid some people dressed as mages, they did not show fear.
This kind of scene of ordinary people living in harmony with the spellcaster was absolutely invisible in her original world.
As she passed by a temple, she was struck by the sight of a large number of people gathered there, solemnly performing some kind of ritual, and the atmosphere of piety and sacredness struck her.
Everything here fascinates her deeply.
…………
Chen Yi's gaze moved away from the temple, and Bard next to him whispered, "That is the temple of the goddess of the night, this god is in charge of a part of the priesthood of death, and whenever there is a large-scale death event, a grand ceremony will be held to pray for the dead." ”
Chen Yi nodded, indicating that he understood.
In the past few days, he has learned a lot about this world from Bard. One of them is that although there are mages in this world, the most powerful forces are the various shrines.
For example, in this empire that rules two-thirds of the continents, the emperor is a descendant of the god of war, and the temples of the god of war are spread throughout the empire, and more than half of the people are believers in the god of war.
There is no doubt that this is a world watched by the gods.
Just now, when he looked at the temple, he could faintly feel that there was a huge and incomparable will enveloping the sky above the temple. Just one look at it made his heart beat a little.
Bard took them to the headquarters of the Chloe Mage Alliance. He had a letter of introduction from his teacher and met a great master named Anthony. His main task when he came to Thunder City this time was to deliver a letter.
Anthony was an old man with gray hair and beard, and was obviously not young.
Bard went to see him alone, and when he read the letter and got the reply he wrote, he hesitated for a moment and said, "I was on the way, and I met a strange archmage, would you like to meet him?" ”
"Oh?"
Anthony stood up and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier, take me to him quickly, you have caused me to snub your distinguished guest." Speaking of the back, there is a tone of lesson.
Bard quickly put the letter away, got up and led the way, and whispered, "Your Excellency, I think this person is a little strange. ”
Anthony couldn't help but slow down when he heard him say the word strange a second time. He was one of the leaders of the Chloe Mage Alliance, and he wasn't the kind of research-obsessed dead man, and he immediately sensed that Bard had something to say.
"Tell me, this person, what's a strange law?"
Bud whispered, "He looks young and able to silently cast a spell of imprisonment. Strangely, he spoke with the accent of our hometown, but there was no such powerful mage as him in our hometown. Moreover, he is not clear about a lot of common sense......"
Speaking of this, he swallowed a little nervously, "Once, I deliberately mispronounced the name of the god of war, and he didn't react. ”
PS: Can I ask for a ticket?
