Gila Island, an island guarded by whirlpool undercurrents, is located in the heart of the city, built along the mountain, and the city is divided into three tiered terraces. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The descendants of the founders, that is, the citizens, occupy the highest position. The striking statue of the god of the sea, which cares for and shelters his people, and the coral crown on the forehead of the god burns with fish fat and oil fire all year round, which is both a lighthouse for returning home at night and a street lamp to guide the Gentiles.

In front of the magnificent temple, the monster that stirs up the wind and waves, the sea god holding the trident, is killed by the group of eagles on the island of Hira. The pool is connected to the mountain spring by a clay pipe, maintaining the effect of the fountain, so that the statue is bathed in the clear spring all the year round, and the water vapor is born.

The second tier of the city belonged to the Gentiles, who came from the islands and beyond, and had a skill in bringing prosperity to the island of Hilla.

Gentiles were not allowed to enter the temple, only to look out from afar, and even if they converted, they were not accepted as citizens. Nor can they own land, and even if they pay a lot of money, they cannot buy their public land from poor citizens.

Farming, doing business, and serving in the military are all rights that only citizens have. The best of them, honing their fighting skills in the arena, will become generals and commanders.

The third floor, the lower city, where only slaves lived, was full of dilapidated mud slab houses, and when it rained heavily, the houses would collapse.

......

Today is the most important day of the year, when the priestess, who remains chaste, leads the citizens to offer an offering to the god of the sea, a bull with black fur.

The male beast, which the four young citizens could not control, was pressed to the ground by the priestess with one hand, and the dagger made of shells was unpretentious, and with a slight stroke on the neck of the bull, blood gushed out, and the whole body of the noble priest was splashed.

Unimpressed, the priestess caught the blood of the bull in a copper basin and, while it was still warm, poured it on the burning olive tree and offered an offering to the god of the sea.

The thick smoke and smell of the rising smoke filled the nostrils, and the priestess stepped forward to inspect it, interpreting the message of the sea god from the twists and turns of the lines. Given clear instructions, the celebrant turned to the citizens present and announced that next year would be a good harvest.

Later, the priestess who presided over the sacrificial ceremony, closed the bull's eyes with her hands, easily cut off the whole bull's head with a shell dagger, and ordered the four auxiliary priests on the left and right to distribute the sacrifice to the citizens present.

The most important sacrifice on the day of the founding of the city ended in this way, and the citizens were given a piece of beef, which was put into their arms regardless of the blood on it. There are pious people who smear their faces with blood with their fingers, look around to the left and right, see the same people, smile and nod.

After the sacrificial ceremony, the brave citizens meet in the arena between the upper and middle towns, surrounded by various weapons, such as swords, spears, throwing spears, war hammers, clubs, slings, shields, leather armor, and helmets.

In the middle of the arena was a soft sandy area, soaked in the blood of countless battles, which looked a little gray and black, close to the dirt outside, which was the color of abundance and abundance.

Gentiles who were not qualified to participate in the sacrifice, sat on the nine-tiered stone steps around the arena, idle spectators, after all, people who liked to be lively were everywhere.

The skilled citizen, holding the sword in one hand, played the sword flower as if it were playful, which immediately won the unanimous cheers of the audience. Approaching the stone steps of the upper city, the chaste maiden let out frequent screams, without the solemnity in front of the temple.

The Gentiles in Midtown were also cheering, but they seemed a little restrained, and the applause was sparse, obviously not very involved.

It wasn't until a foreigner from Midtown who was known for his martial arts stepped into the arena with vigorous steps that neat cheers rang out from the stone steps of Midtown.

Casio, a warrior representing Midtown, deliberately met the applause behind him with the rhythm of his footsteps, creating a shocking momentum for himself.

He was tall, with a sturdy and burly physique, thick black hair covering his forehead, and large apricot eyes that shimmered with ambition, but his face was tense, perhaps to avoid leaking out emotions.

......

Lu Bin landed at the happiest and most lively time on Hira Island, and due to the high temperature, he had already thrown away his extra clothes. These burdens are more or less contaminated with the whale's gastric juice, and they are corroded into holes one by one, which looks a little unsightly.

By the time he had lifted the levitation, his feet had returned to normal, and he was walking on the soft sand, wearing only a pair of delicate leather pants.

Under the hot sun, although the sea breeze kept blowing, it couldn't take away the stuffiness, and a thin layer of oil sweat soon appeared on Lu Bin's shoulders and back.

The vitality drawn from the whale was surging in Lu Bin's body, his physique was obviously improved, and his muscles were bulging and rising, like a fighter who had just stepped off the battlefield.

The unobstructed view of the beach made it very easy to expose his existence, and Lu Bin saw that there was no one left and right, and quickly turned into the shrubs hidden in the shade.

With a keen sense of danger, Lu Bin avoided several deadly traps and walked through this windbreak area, where he suddenly saw a layered city.

The cheers resounded in the sky, the blue sky, the occasional passing white clouds, would also be shattered by the sound, Lu Bin couldn't help but be a little curious, according to the usual use of fluent language for himself, and then walked over casually, familiarly like returning to his own home.

The farmland outside the city was divided into blocks, there were drainage ditches between the ridges, and the grass and trees were sprinkled everywhere.

Perhaps because of the festival, the slaves who tended to the crops rarely had a holiday, and they hurried to dry the clay tablets and mend the leaks that had rained.

Even the annual founding day was only a festival for citizens, not to mention that slaves could not participate in it, and even the Gentiles of Midtown could not be bare-washed.

The guards patrolling the city walls, seeing the stranger's face approaching, immediately paid attention, even though they were alone, and reminded their companions to draw their bows and quickly shoot a threatening arrow.

Lu Bin heard the sound of breaking the air, and immediately saw the mud three steps away in front of him, a wooden pole and arrow were stuck obliquely on the ground, and the goose feathers at the tail vibrated non-stop, and immediately stopped, raised his head and spread his hands, indicating that he was not hostile.

The leader of the guards jumped down, and when Lu Bin saw the four-meter-high city wall, the other party stood up without incident, and walked quickly towards him, and couldn't help but nod lightly, revealing an approving gaze.

With an honest attitude, a strong burly body, and leather pants that look very delicate and not ordinary people can afford, the face of the guard leader is much better.

He thought to himself: this stranger must not be a slave, but a foreigner who came to admire him, and according to the custom, he had to pay a certain tax, but unfortunately there was no place to hide money on this person's body.

"Brave guardians of the city, survivors of shipwrecks, salute you. ”

The series of "local languages" made the guards of the city wall suspicious, he knew very well that the stranger in front of him was definitely not a citizen of the city, after all, the nearest island of Sisos, their accents had changed slightly, but why they could speak the fluent language of Hira Island, he could not give a reasonable explanation for this, and then persuaded himself to accept it.

"Strange Gentiles, Lady Lucky is on your side. Go ahead and I will guide you to the altar, where the priest will purify you with water and give you cleansing. ”

"It is my pleasure! Allow me to return the weapons that were left behind in the wilderness. ”

Seeing the guard nodding slightly, Lu Bin immediately stepped forward, bent down to pick up the arrow, held the arrow, and handed it back to him with his backhand, then took half a step back and kept a distance, and then walked in front with an indifferent expression, taking an unhurried step.

The guard was a little annoyed that the stranger did not bend his knees, and then remembered that the other party might be a citizen of a certain city-state, and immediately extinguished the small anger in his heart.

Even if he didn't look back, Lu Bin knew that the guards of the city wall must be holding the spear in his hand, and the sharp head of the spear was pointed at his back, if he had any abnormality, it might be a thrust that would kill with one hit.

The two walked through the city gate one after the other, and the symmetrical statue of the dolphin jumping into the water at the head of the city glowed with a pale blue light under the sun.

Lu Bin knew very well that this was a trace of divine power, and secretly thought that it might be a trigger-shaped defensive divine technique, but fortunately, he gave up everything, except for the surging vitality in his body, there was nothing.

So, Lu Bin walked over easily and was not affected in any way, and this scene relieved the guards who followed behind.
