To the west of the Demon Beast Mountain Range of the Magnolia Continent, it is divided into the Holy Alliance and the Dark Alliance, among which the kingdom headed by the Holy Alliance is the Finlay Kingdom!

The city of Finlay is the royal capital of the 'Kingdom of Finlay'.

At the same time, it is also the 'Holy Capital' of the Holy Alliance, because the headquarters of the Holy See of Light is located in the western city of Finlay.

The entire city of Finlay is mainly divided into two parts: the east city and the west city. The eastern city is governed by the kingdom of Finlay, while the western city is governed by the Holy See of Light. It is precisely because Finlay City is both the royal capital and the holy capital that the prosperity of Finlay City is second to none in the entire Magnolia Continent.

Finlay City covers an extremely vast area, with more than one million residents inside, and it is also one of the top five super cities in the entire Magnolia Continent.

In the evening, Ray and Hillman entered Finlay City.

"Wow. ”

Walking on the main street of Finlay City's East City'Champs Boulevard', Lin Lei only felt that he was dazzled, and the little shadow mouse 'Beibei' was asked by Lin Lei to hide in his clothes, and Beibei also secretly showed his eyes to look outside. "Squeak, squeak~~" The little shadow mouse was also excited.

Fortunately, the entire Champs-Ésées Avenue was bustling and noisy at the moment, and no one paid attention to the sound.

"Quiet. Lin Lei immediately patted the little shadow mouse lightly, and the little shadow mouse obediently stopped making a sound, but told Lin Lei about its excitement through soul communication.

The entire Avenue des Champs is paved with smooth bluestone slabs, which can accommodate several carriages in parallel. On both sides of the street are hotels, clothing stores, weapons stores, bars, and other commercial establishments. At the same time, there are rows of neat and straight pine and cypress trees on each side of the 'Champs-Écoupés'.

Ladies and ladies dressed in trendy costumes strolled down the streets talking and laughing with each other.

When some of the ladies around saw Lin Lei's reaction, they all laughed at each other in a low voice, and sometimes pointed at Lin Lei twice. Obviously, Lin Lei's reaction is 'countrymen entering the city', and the nobles of the royal capital have a natural sense of superiority over the countrymen.

"Hmph, no upbringing. Lin Lei frowned, very dissatisfied with the guidance and laughter of those noble ladies.

Having been educated by his family since he was a child, Lin Lei let his excitement hide in his heart for just a while, and he seemed much calmer on the surface.

"Lin Lei, how is Finlay City? Finlay City is the largest city in our Holy Alliance. Hillman and Lin Lei walked on the side of the street, saw some warriors walking by, or occasionally a mage or two, and exclaimed, "Lin Lei, powerful warriors and mages are very common in Finlay City. ”

Lin Lei smiled and nodded: "It is recorded in the book that Finlay City is the political center, economic center, and art center of the Holy Alliance. ”

"It's a paradise for the rich and the powerful. Hillman nodded and sighed.

On the bustling Champs-Ésés, there were often some luxury carriages passing by, and Hillman took Lin Lei to walk around the 'Champs-Ésésés', the main thoroughfare of Finlay City, and directly looked for an ordinary hotel to live in.

There is a small restaurant next to the hotel, where Lin Lei and Hillman have dinner.

That night, inside the hotel.

Lin Lei and Drinkwater lived in the same room, there were two beds in the room, as soon as he entered the room, the little shadow mouse 'Beibei' jumped out of Lin Lei's chest clothes, and immediately screamed around Lin Lei.

"Know you're hungry, eat. Lin Lei threw the whole roast duck brought back from the restaurant on the ground, and Bei Bei immediately tore it next to him excitedly.

"Lin Lei, rest early, I have to go to the magic test tomorrow morning. Hillman asked.

"Got it, Uncle Hillman. As he spoke, Lin Lei walked to the window and opened the curtains.

The hotel has a total of three floors, and Lin Lei lives on the second floor. There are no three-story high-rise buildings in Osan Town, but they are very common in the royal capital 'Finlay City', where there are seven-story and eight-story high-rise buildings.

Looking out through the window, the streets outside were still full of people.

"Phew, it's been a long time since I've seen a big city. A misty streamer flew out of the Ring of the Dragon, turning into an old man with white hair, and Drinkwater and Lin Lei looked side by side at the street below.

"Grandpa Delin. Lin Lei immediately greeted him.

"Lin Lei, how do you feel when you arrive in the big city?" said Drinkwater, smiling.

"It's nothing. Lin Lei said with a pout.

Drinkwater lamented: "You have only been here for a long time, and you don't know anything about big cities, where there are all kinds of luxury consumption places, such as large auctions, and some rich people can even spend hundreds of thousands of gold coins or even millions of gold coins to buy an item. ”

"Million gold coins?" Lin Lei only felt a dryness in his throat.

What kind of huge sum of money is that? I am afraid that I will not be able to take out 100,000 gold coins in my family.

"There are still a lot of rich people, money, power, beauty, the competition is very fierce, and people die here every day. Corpses are often found in the stinking gutters of the slums of Finlay, and those corpses may be those of some nobles. ”

Drinkwater smiled indifferently: "However, to stand in this world, what you need is your own strength. ”

"Don't expect the kindness of others, you can only rely on yourself. Drinkwater looked at Ray.

The blood of the dragon blood warrior in Lin Lei's body actually made Lin Lei belligerent and bloodthirsty in his heart.

"Whoever threatens me, threatens my relatives, I will kill him. Lin Lei said firmly, he had read many books about the ups and downs of the family, and Lin Lei knew very well that being merciful to the enemy was cruel to himself.

If you let the enemy go, they may kill your loved ones.

"However, my strength is still very weak. Lin Lei couldn't help but recall in his heart that when he first entered Finlay City, some noble ladies were contemptuous of him. In the eyes of those upper-class people, he is just a poor boy from the countryside.

With an indifferent smile, Lin Lei went to bed and sat down cross-legged, and began to meditate and exercise his mental strength.

Meditation to exercise mental power is actually to use various methods to consume mental power until it is consumed to a bottom line, and then recover through sleep!

Chest in the dantian.

The misty earth-yellow mist floated in the middle dantian, and this earthy yellow mist was the earth-based mana after the refinement of the earth-system elements. According to Drinkwater's narrative, from Level 1 to Level 6 magicians, the mana is in the form of a mist. As the level increases, the 'quality' of mana increases and the density increases.

When you reach level 7 mage, your mana will condense into a liquid.

So a sixth-level magician to a seventh-level magician is a hurdle!

"Lin Lei, this kid, is so hardworking, he exercises his mental strength at night. Hillman couldn't help but admire Lin Lei when he saw Lin Lei sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, whether it was a magician or a warrior. Mental power is very important to them!

On the morning of the second day, Finlay East City Green Leaf Road, Green Leaf Road is also one of the several main roads in Finlay City, and most of the buildings on both sides of the entire Green Leaf Road are luxury mansions, and some buildings belonging to the kingdom. One of the tallest buildings is the Chapel of the Holy See of Light.

The Holy Alliance, the six kingdoms and fifteen principalities, and the Holy See of Light controls the entire alliance.

The Pope of Light has the highest status, and the Pope has the right to depose the king of a kingdom! So even in the eastern part of Finlay, the tallest building is the Chapel of the Holy See of Light.

This morning, a large number of people gathered at the entrance of the church of the Holy See of Light, most of the people here were noblely dressed nobles, and the empty square in front of the church was almost occupied by carriages, and the nobles greeted each other.

Lin Lei and Hillman also came here at this time.

"Uncle Hillman, there are so many people here today, and many nobles have come with their children. Lin Lei said to Hillman with a smile, and at this time, the little shadow mouse 'Beibei' also shrank inside Lin Lei's clothes, occasionally showing his small eyes to look outside.

Hillman nodded and smiled indifferently: "Nobles, any magician who graduated from the highest magic academy 'Ernst Academy' can easily become an earl in a kingdom. ”

"The Count of the Kingdom?" Lin Lei understood as soon as he heard it.

It is not difficult to obtain a kingdom title, but it is even more difficult to obtain an empire title. After all, any of the four empires could be compared to the entire Holy Alliance, far from being comparable to the Finlay Kingdom.

"Oh, Lord Doyle, you're here too?"

"I'm here, Heber, of course, for my son, Hess, to see Uncle Heber. ”

I saw a group of nobles not far away greeting each other, the magic admission test, the registration fee for the test alone requires ten gold coins. And once admitted, be admitted to a certain magic academy. Then the tuition fee is even higher. Ordinary magic academies have a tuition fee of hundreds of gold coins a year! Ordinary families can't afford it at all, but as long as their children are admitted, there will naturally be nobles to sponsor them.

However, not all magic academies are expensive.

For example, the first magic academy 'Ernst Academy', because there are very few students enrolled, as long as they belong to the children of the Holy Alliance, the tuition is free! After all, those who can enter the Ernst Academy are all geniuses. There's no limit to what you can accomplish in the future.

"Hmph, those commoners and countrymen are also here, is it really a daydream?" said some nobles in the distance, sneering.

Among the hundreds of people gathered in the square, some were commoners, or small rural nobles like Lin Lei. In general, the small aristocrats in the countryside are also looked down upon. Most of the nobles in the royal capital were more proud and looked down on people.

"Lin Lei, don't be like them. Hillman whispered.

Lin Lei looked at the group of nobles and said with a low smile: "Uncle Hillman, I won't be like those people. "Under his father Hogg's years of education, Lin Lei doesn't care about those nobles who think they are high.

The whole square was clearly divided into two circles, one was the nobility who talked loudly, and the other was the commoners or the small nobles in the countryside.

At this moment, there are two warriors in battle armor at the entrance of the church, blocking outsiders from entering.

After a while, a priest in a black robe walked out slowly, stopped when he reached the door of the church, and said aloud with a smile: "Magic test, starting now, the recruits of the major magic academies are also ready." Anyone who wants to test their magic, please follow me into the hall. ”
