Chapter 408: What About People?
"This city is probably the biggest we've ever seen, right?"
Langdon stood at the exit of the stairs, looking at the city in front of him with some distraction.
This sentence was completely subconsciously asked by him, and the person who asked it was Hogg, who had followed him the longest.
His attention was completely absorbed by the city, in fact, he didn't even notice whether Hogg was around him or not, he just subconsciously felt that Hogg was there, and he felt uncomfortable not asking this sentence.
Hogg was there, and naturally understood that Langdon was asking her, so he replied solemnly, "Yes, my lord, this place is bigger than Sauronord!
In the eyes of the King of Riverpaw, Stormwind was the largest city she had ever seen, while Sørenord was second, and of course, both cities had to move back one place in the rankings for now.
The city was too large to be seen from the outside, as it was completely surrounded by mountains, but from where Langdon was standing, it was completely magnificent.
The city has a very clear sense of hierarchy, and the place where Langdon and they stand is the first floor, and then at least a kilometer or more, the second level is clearly one level higher, and then the third, fourth, and fifth floors.
Each floor is 5 or 6 meters higher than the previous one, which is about the height of a two-story house, but this is not because the mountains are higher, in fact, the terrain is completely flat in the area surrounded by mountains, which means that by the time you reach the fifth floor, it is already full of tall buildings with more than 10 floors.
After that, there is a final sixth floor, which is completely different from the previous five floors, the building is taller and grander, and the architectural style is also noticeably different.
The difference between the two architectural styles is like the difference between a commoner and a royal family.
As long as you look at it, you can understand that it is where the ruler of the city lives!
Langdon's experience of the enormity of this place must have been the most profound, after all, he had lived in a more "big" era, and he had been to most of the world's big cities.
It is no exaggeration to say that the scale of this city is not inferior even to the underground demon capital Mosoblay City, or the first port on the ground, Ximen!
Langdon was in a trance for a long time, and finally recovered, and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh at himself, he had seen so many things, but he was still so out of shape.
Then he raised his head and looked at the sky, and couldn't help but be stunned again.
There are a total of six mountains surrounding the city, each of which is a little taller than the two statues of the enchanted gods outside, at least 500 meters higher.
Looking up from the bottom, I only feel that the mountain is like a sword, piercing the sky, but when I see the top of the mountain, no matter who cares about it, I will be stunned.
Because the top parts of the six mountains are surprisingly the same, they are not straight, but they are beginning to bend, and they are all bent towards the interior, that is, the sky above the city!
In this way, the summits of the six mountains are connected together, as if forming a large barrier, which can not only shelter the wind and rain to a certain extent, but also hide the city to the greatest extent, not to mention from the surrounding area, even if someone flies in the air to see down, it is difficult to find the city hidden in the belly of the mountain.
What's even more surprising is that the six mountains block out most of the sunlight under normal circumstances, and only when the sun is in the sky can sunlight fall.
However, it was already close to evening in the afternoon, and the sun was already in the west, but the belly of the mountain was still bright, and there was no darkness at all, as if the surrounding mountains had absorbed the sunlight and projected it into the city!
"There must be something there. Langdon looked at the top of the mountain and said secretly in his heart.
Directly in front of the mountainside giant city was a wide, flat avenue that slowly stretched upwards until the fourth floor of the city was blocked by the buildings.
Langdon thought for a while and said, "In such a big city, if you want to search it completely, we can't do it for half a month." ”
"In terms of architectural style here, the lower floor should be the civilian area, and the upper level is the trade area and the place where those with status live, so let's go up directly, start from the fourth floor and search up, with the building that should be the palace as the end, and if you can't find anything, turn your head and search down. ”
Everyone dispersed according to Langdon's words, and at this time, Langdon's use of the enchantment that should belong to this civilization made the Apple mobile phone came in handy.
In order to prevent there were still enemies in the city, such as the people of this civilization who had not yet perished, or the presence of a lyb like the Megatron at the entrance, the troops did not completely disperse, but maintained a squad of about 15 people.
Langdon and his party divided into three groups as they had searched for the factory before, and after going up the avenue to the fourth floor, they separated, and each chose a path to enter.
The first few floors of the city are mostly some buildings of dozens to more than 100 square meters, which should be where ordinary people live, and on the fourth floor, there are more than some larger buildings, with an area of thousands of square meters, much like the big shopping mall in the previous life, but there is no house here, so people can't guess whether such a huge high-rise building is a shopping mall or a family house.
"It's been a long, long time since no one lived here. As Langdon walked down the road, he pressed his finger on the windowsill of a house and immediately sank into a thick layer of dust, and it was evident that the closure here was not as good as the factory, so there was more dust deposited.
He came to the door of the first building, which was only half-hidden and not locked, and Langdon pressed his hands on the door with a slight force, only to hear a screeching click, and the door was pushed open.
They entered a building with about 400 civilians, and according to the height of the first floor, there were at least 4 floors, which was extremely spacious.
And the first thing Langdon saw after entering was a wall standing not far in front, some like the ancient wall of the previous life, and it played the same role, except that it was not carved with dragons and tigers, but was painted with beautiful but mysterious patterns - enchanted magic patterns.
"Enchantments are so ubiquitous here, on every wall of the entrance. Seeing this, Langdon couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.
Beyond the wall, there is a door on the front and on the left and right, and in the open space there are some utensils and the like.
Although it is the interior of the building, it is still the lowest floor of the building, but just looking at it like this, it is no different from the front yard of a general house.
"It seems that this is supposed to be a residence, not a shopping mall. Langdon said, "It's just ......."
"What about people?"
