The sky is blue and sunny, and although the temperature in late autumn is not high, the weather is still good. Visibility is good, and when you look up, you can see the end of the skyline all the way.

In the carriage, everyone was attracted by Shuer's words, poked their heads out of the windows on both sides, and looked up at the sky curiously, but all they saw in their eyes was the blue sky and white clouds, the sun and the birds, and they couldn't see any so-called miracles at all.

The wheels are rolling, and as the team slowly moves forward, patience is running out little by little. However, no one gave up, and although Shul sometimes liked to joke, he never talked nonsense, and since he said that he was about to witness a miracle, it would surely come soon. The people in the temple who were familiar with him knew his style, so no one was noisy, waiting for a miracle to appear.

In the next moment, the originally bright environment became dark in an instant, and the sun in the sky seemed to suddenly disappear, and the entire convoy was shrouded in shadow.

Raising their heads in astonishment, everyone almost couldn't believe their eyes, the sky that was still empty just now, I don't know when, a huge floating island suddenly appeared.

It's really an empty island.

A rocky island of several square kilometers in size, floating hundreds of meters in mid-air, the lower end facing the ground like an inverted peak, some strange vines climbing on the rocks, dotted with a few bits of green on the bare inverted island.

When the inverted island appeared, it was already very close to the convoy, and everyone could only use a very awkward angle to try to observe the sky island. At this time, I was surprised to find that above the sky island was a very flat area, dozens of buildings rose from the ground on the sky island, all of which were spire structures, pointing to the sky like a sharp sword.

"Lord Luna's bless. Several believers in the Dark Moon Temple subconsciously drew circles on their chests, and their voices were soft as if they were afraid of waking themselves up from their dreams, "Oh my God, it's a miracle. ”

The buildings on the entire floating island are uniformly white, and the architectural style is very strange. Each building is a tall tower-shaped building, with stone staircases spiraling up the façade to the top of the building.

It's literally a city built on the sky.

On the exterior walls of the building, there are many windows that are far wider than normal buildings, and the bright glass glistens in the sunlight, and the white building complements each other, exuding endless purity and sacredness.

White clouds surround the city, huge towers disappear in the clouds, and the facades of all buildings are engraved with special patterns, and the majestic magic flows between the magic circuits composed of patterns, and the magical energy flashes all kinds of brilliance on the buildings, making the whole city full of alluring mystery.

"This is the floating city of the Winged Humans?" Looking up at the city that suddenly appeared in the sky, Lisa clenched Shuer's hand tightly and muttered, "I've only heard of it in legends, but I've never seen it with my own eyes." ”

There is no need for Shure to answer, the facts speak for themselves.

A large window opened, and several black dots flew out of the window, weaving freely between the building and the clouds. Ordinary people can only see a few black spots with their eyesight, but the strengthened physical fitness of the fighters allows them to see clearly, they are four winged people with white wings.

With his tall figure, white wings, and beautiful faces for both men and women, there is no doubt that this is the Winged Man, the most favored child of the gods in legend.

The white wings stretched, their clothes fluttered, and their slender bodies seemed to dance in the clouds, and their appearance seemed to be a signal. After them, white-feathered winged people flew out of the windows of the building, and for a moment, white wings could be seen hovering in the air everywhere around the floating city.

There are two kinds of winged people, and a large number of white-feathered winged people have appeared, so of course the black-winged people will not be far away.

Among the inverted peaks below the floating city, many rocks suddenly moved away automatically, revealing gaps like gates, and black wings lined up in a neat line, rushing out of the gaps one after another. It seems that the rocks that were originally thought to be just used to stabilize the center of gravity of the floating island are actually not that simple, after all, the white-winged people pursue a bright environment, but the black-winged people, the shadows are their paradise.

The winged people who rushed out of the floating city did not scatter at will, but circled around the buildings in an organized manner, and if you looked closely, you could see that they were actually maintaining the outer walls of the buildings, especially the important magic circuits.

"Mostraun means brilliant in the ancient language of the Wings, so people prefer to call the city the Bright Capital. Everyone's surprised performance obviously satisfied Shuer, he lay on the roof of the car with his arms on his pillow, looked up at the mountain peak at the bottom of the floating city, and said leisurely, "It is said that this is one of the three oldest floating cities of the Winged Human Race, and the only one floating near the human territory. ”

The Winged Humans are a mysterious race, and legend has it that they were the first intelligent race to be born, with a history even longer than the elves and dragons. When the embryonic era, when other intelligent races had just begun to use their wisdom to contact the world, a brilliant magical civilization had already been born among the winged people.

The Floating City is a product of the most glorious era of the Winged People, who conquered the sky with the power of magic, relying on magic and wings to turn the sky into a paradise for them to live in. It is said that in the heyday of the Winged Human Race, there were as many as a hundred similar floating cities, which does not sound like a lot, but the population of this race has never exceeded one million, and nearly a hundred floating cities are already a lot for them.

With such an advanced civilization, the Winged Terrans should theoretically become the overlord of the entire Pavatiga, at least for a while, but the sparse population, coupled with the mutual restraint between the gods behind them, made it difficult for them to form an absolute deterrent to other races. Coupled with the fact that they do not conflict with the ground race, they rarely have conflicts with the ground race, and in most wars, they are neutrals and bystanders, unwilling to intervene in the war on the ground.

Unfortunately, even though they are a peace-loving race, they have not escaped the bloodshed and carnage of the chaotic era.

For thousands of years, their lead in civilization has been narrowed by other races, and the problem of sparse population has never been solved, so when the era of chaos comes, Pavadiga falls into a thousand years of melee, even if their entire race can fly, even if they have nearly a hundred floating cities as weapons and bases, they still suffer huge losses in the long war.

By the time the era of the Temple of the Gods came, the population of the Winged Human Race was less than 300,000, and there were only twenty of the hundred floating cities left, which could be said to be a catastrophe.

Fortunately, in the era of peace, they were given a chance to recuperate, and with the assistance of other races, they slowly recovered, but if they want to restore to the most glorious era, I am afraid that it is impossible to do it without thousands of years.

However, the pain caused by the war has not changed the preferences of the Winged Humans, who are still living in a floating city full of mystery as before, far away from the contradictions and strife of the world.

At least that's the case for most of the Wingmen.

Of course, there are also many outliers, some are trying to get out of the protection of the floating city and take the initiative to integrate into the lives of other races, and some are simply brought out of the floating city, and the four floating cities hover near the main territories of other races, becoming a springboard for racial contact, so that the contact and communication of different races can be carried out better.

Undoubtedly, the Shining City is one of them, it is a window for most of the human elite to know about the Winged Terrans, and it is also a symbol of this race in the hearts of the human race.

"I understand all of this. Lisa said coquettishly, "But you haven't answered my question yet, brother, how did they manage to make such a large city disappear from sight?" Don't tell me it's because we didn't see it, such a big city can still be seen floating in the sky, it's not a problem of dazzling, it's blindness. ”

"Light deflects, the power of magic. How exactly to do it, that's a secret within the Winged Human Race, and if I can answer you, I guess it's not far from being hunted down by their entire clan. Shrugging his shoulders indifferently, Shuer said slowly, "Only when you get close to a certain level can you make the light deflection spell invalid, and you can't see them from a little distance, even the demonic beasts are like this, so under the watchful eyes of those fierce flying demonic beasts, you can still stay safe and sound." ”

"Because of this characteristic, many travelers who pass by the neighborhood will be startled by the sudden appearance of the floating city, and I guess the duck was the same when I saw it for the first time, so I wanted to lose face again. Unfortunately, hehe, the city has been documented in many books, including its specific location, and since I am going to take this line, how can I not figure out the key points and precautions along the way. ”

"You're a duck, you've been a duck all your life. Only then will Duck's hearing be particularly keen, and he quickly jumped over and waved his fist at Shuer, suddenly turned his head, and said with a flattering face, "Beautiful little lady, are you interested in going up and seeing this beautiful city up close? ”

"Loyal and honest, sneering. Of course, Lisa will stand on her brother's side and spare no effort to fight this fool who dares to provoke his brother, but his proposal is very attractive, "Can you really go up?"

"The Winged Terrans are not averse to contact with other races, but not everyone can go up to a place like Floating City. "But I've been here many times, and I've done them a favor, and if I want to bring my friends in, they're not going to object." ”

"Brother. Lisa was moved by the words and asked expectantly, "Is that okay?"

"Yes, of course. Shuer smiled strangely, "However, this is your own request, and you are not allowed to scold me at your own risk." ”

"Huh?" the girl was confused, not knowing why.

"Hehehe, it's nothing, Lisa-sama, please. ”
