Chapter 67: The Kamigara Collar
The Bute Plateau, the highest plateau in the Yala Continent, was once considered by the people of the Three-Eyed Clan to be the closest to the sky and the gods in the First Age, but in the Fourth Age, this pure land was occupied by some mages who turned their backs on the gods because they were tired of the war of the gods and admired their own strength, which can not but be said to be a wonderful irony.
On the Bout Plateau, there is a flat plateau called Kamigara, with an area of about 14,000 square kilometers, which belongs to the same mage lord. Among the fifty-four territories of the Mage Country, a territory of this size is not the largest, and there are many lords whose territories are much larger than the Camigara Highlands, but if you talk about the richness of the land and the density of the population, this territory definitely belongs to one of the best, with a population of 970,000 ranking third among all the territories, and enough to supply the consumption of the 970,000 people and a large amount of surplus materials, so that the wealth of the Kamigara Territory is also in second place in the Mage Country Bout, second only to the current Speaker of the Supreme Council of Mages, Warrenson's territory。 The abundant products in this territory, in addition to the daily consumption of 970,000 people and the expenses for maintaining the lord's power, are all converted into various magical materials and research funds for the lords and the mages under the lords to carry out magical research and knowledge exploration, which is the same practice of all the mage lords of the mage country, or in other words, this is one of the purposes of the establishment of the mage country - in order to explore the endless unknown, unrestricted financial and material resources of all the territory to support their own research work.
The lord of the Kamigara Lord, obsessed with the study of magic, did not attend the annual Council of the Supreme Council for many years, and sometimes even forgot to appoint a representative, but no one objected to this, because the lord's position in the country of mages was too special. As one of Bout's only two demigods, the lord's strength and knowledge surpassed not only Speaker Warrenson, but even the head of the Mage Guild, Antuine, who became the most powerful mage in the Yarra world long ago. His name has spread to every corner of the continent of Yara, his deeds are still sung in the bards, and his existence has become the pride of the mage, he is Fira, one of the participants in the First Battle of the Return of the Dead, a hero of a hundred years ago. It's a pity that time is the most terrible weapon, and no one can get away with the ravages of time, even the Fila Division, who has studied the secrets of time for half his life, and several members of the Mage Supreme Council know it. Master Fira's time is running out. However, the inhabitants of Kamigara are unaware of these things, and they continue to live their lives as usual, creating their own stories.
The Third Flame City, the capital of the Carmigara Territory, has a population of more than 200,000 people, accounting for one-fifth of all the Carmigara Territory, and at least one-third of all the commercial activities of the Carmigara Territory are done here. It can be said that the Third Flame City is the heart of the Camigara, and it is the most important city.
"You see, those mages only have magical models and mathematical formulas in their heads. All of their intelligence was allocated to the study of magic, so giving them names was a kind of self-defeating. Ignoring the melancholy gaze of the beautiful eyes behind him and the threat of the flames on the other side, Pennis said to himself, "Look at these mage lords in the Mage Country. There was no idea to come up with a name at all, and in the entire country of mages, there were at least forty Flame Cities. There are more than a hundred Fireball Towns, and they only seem to think of these names, and I think even if it is called Black Cat City and White Dog City, it sounds better than these names. Their people also felt helpless, and in order to distinguish themselves from each other, they could only add numbers in front of the city, which felt pitiful when they thought about it. ”
"Think about what happens when two people meet for the first time and introduce themselves to each other. Pannis waved his hands and said in a strengthened tone, "Hello, I'm Tom from Thirty-Eighth Flame City, and it's a pleasure to meet you. Hello, I'm Jerry from Fireball Town 124, and I'm honored to meet you. God, a good self-introduction turned into a comedy. ”
"Poof", the silver-haired priest girl couldn't help but cover her mouth and let out a low chuckle, there seemed to be a scene described by Pannis, I have to say, although his description is a little mean, but it does make sense, if you let yourself introduce yourself like this, it is estimated that you must feel so ashamed that you can't speak.
However, in any case, it is really not polite to make such remarks in someone else's capital city, Catherine stabbed Pannis's finger fiercely, and laughed in a low voice: "You guy shut up for me, you can think about this kind of thing, it is too rude to say it, you see that the eyes of the people around you are not right." ”
"Okay, okay. Pannis said obediently: "It's okay not to say anything, look at the scenery, you shouldn't have been to the country of mages, the city here is still very distinctive." ”
Pannis was right, the cities of the Mage Nation do have a lot of character. Unlike other cities, which are always adorned with tall trees, there are few large trees due to the high terrain, and most of the plants are low shrubs and grasses, so the overall effect of the city seems to be very lifeless. To compensate for this shortcoming, residents mostly paint the exterior walls of their houses green, which doesn't really make a real difference, but at least looks better.
Walking into the city, people can clearly feel that they are in a foreign country, and the surrounding buildings will have a high spire regardless of their function, these spires do not have much purpose, and were originally designed to imitate the shape of the mage tower, but this habit has continued for thousands of years, and this architectural style has become a tradition in the country of mages. From a distance, the city's countless spiky rooftops shoot up into the sky, like a dense forest.
The weather was nice and the sun was abundant, but there was always a large shadow of dark clouds drifting around in the vast city, and it seemed to move very regularly. If you look up and look straight up, you can see that it is not a dark cloud at all, but a huge floating island. The island is about one square kilometer long, and below it is a whole block of rock, surrounded by mud, and the rocks and dirt are condensed by the power of magic, floating in the air in a way that defies the rules of gravity. Above the island, a towering mage tower stood, signaling to all the people the authority and belonging of the territory. (To be continued...... )
