In front of Tang Jie's eyes is a one-to-one hundred map of Otrensia, which is finely marked with the location and garrison of each military camp in the city, and the names of each street, connecting lanes, and where they lead, are all clearly marked, especially to Tang Jie's jaw-dropping, this map also has a fine city defense garrison, as well as the distribution of buildings in the palace and the location, route and time of patrol patrols!

The most exaggerated thing is that there are also obvious circles in some places of the parchment scroll, and there are detailed instructions behind the signs.

Tang Jie turned it over and found that these remarks turned out to be the general information of these garrison troops, such as the specific number of people, the names and personalities of the officers, and even any hobbies!

"This ......" Tang Jie's eyes widened as he looked at the one-meter-long sheepskin scroll, and he was speechless for a while.

As a battle-hardened pirate, of course he knows what such a map means, this is simply to show all the city defenses and troops of Otrensia in front of him, if Tang Jie wants to attack Otrentia at this time, Tang Jie can completely capture the palace in one fell swoop with this map in his hand!

This is simply a tactical map that will never be changed!!

Tang Jie's hand holding this map was even a little trembling, he still remembered that when he was in Dam City, the reason why he was able to rescue the old captain Baal was because of a map of the city of Damu City left by Baal.

At that time, the map was extremely rudimentary, and he only used charcoal to roughly draw the general situation of Dam City on the parchment scroll, but with such a rough map, Tang Jie formulated a thorough rescue plan.

And now, the precision of the map in Tang Jie's hand at this time is so different from the previous map that it is heaven and earth, and the map drawn by this parchment scroll only does not show the appearance and height of the officers of those garrisons, and the home address!

"This is too exaggerated......" Tang Jie was speechless for a long time, "How much eyeliner did the Kelsman family have planted in Ortrencia?"

Angel and Christina looked at each other in shock, and each saw a look of horror in each other's eyes.

Although the parchment scroll left by the countess is indeed a great gift to Tang Jie and them, for them, it is also a disguised demonstration and warning, and they can collect such perfect information in the strange capital of another continent tens of thousands of nautical miles away, so what about Alcatraz Island, which is next to the Pound Continent, and close to the Pound Empire's Mozambique?

Once the two sides clash, it is impossible to imagine the role of the Kelsman family's intelligence network!

"No wonder this family has been standing for hundreds of years, and it is still expanding outward, and it really has a hand!" Tang Jie said in a low voice, "This woman is showing me their strength, so that I don't act rashly?"

Tang Jie patted the scroll in his hand, glanced at the people around him, and said with a smile: "I don't know if this alliance is right or wrong." ”

Angel said, "Anyway, this map has two triangular markers on it, and I suspect that these two markers are where my father Garcis and my maid Donnie were held, and with this map, our chances of success in rescuing my father are greatly increased!"

Rogge couldn't help but say on the side: "Is there also hope to rescue Donnie?"

Tang Jie said: "Don't worry, you two, before that, we should first verify the accuracy of this map, and the most important thing in front of us is how to deal with that Ka Miro of the Light God Sect!"

Angel said, "I'm going to take this scroll and make a copy of it, and then I'll compare it with the message. ”

Tang Jie nodded, and then said to Christina and Rogge, "You go and contact some reliable people to inquire about the reliability of these messages." ”

Angel, Christina, and Rogge nodded.

Fiona couldn't help but ask, "What about me, if it's not my business, I'll go back to the Black Dragon King's ship." ”

Tang Jie turned his face to Fiona and smiled: "How could it not be ......?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a tuk tuk sound at the door, and then an attendant pushed open the door and said to Angel and Tang Jie: "Your Highness, captain, there is an invitation sent from outside the door. ”

Tang Jie asked, "Hey, we're really busy right now, who sent it?"

The squire said, "It's Lord Talasha......"

"Tarasya?" Tang Jie and Fiona lost their voices at the same time, "What is he sending invitations for?"

Tang Jie walked quickly to the door, and just took the gilded post with exquisite patterns, and a small magic ripple in this post quickly drilled into his skin along Tang Jie's right hand.

This magic ripple was so fast and thin that Fiona, the magic queen on the side, didn't notice it, she just saw Tang Jie's body tremble violently, standing stiffly in place, stammering and not speaking.

Angel on the side pushed Tang Jie puzzled: "What's wrong with you?"

Tang Jie woke up like a dream, and with a loud sound, he quickly glanced at Angel: "I'm fine......" and then said to Fiona with a smile: "What a coincidence, I was about to visit him." How about it, Your Royal Highness, the Queen, he also invited you, give me a face, and go with you?"

Angel said with a calm face: "It has been decades since outsiders set foot in Sky City, and I invite you to go at this time, but I'm afraid that Tarasia has bad intentions, so you'd better not go." ”

Tang Jie thought for a moment and said, "If I want to form an alliance with the Kelsman family, then I should be prepared for the situation after the alliance between the two sides breaks down, we had better have a backup option, perhaps, Talasha can consider it." ”

Saying that, Tang Jie glanced at Fiona: "As long as you don't object......"

Fiona sighed, "My captain, don't blame me for not reminding you, Tarasia is a traitor to the wizarding world, and if you cooperate with him, you are fighting against the tiger!"

Tang Jie said: "You are right, but if we don't contact him at all, there is no hope at all, as long as we can convince this old fox that he will not fully fall to Camilla in the future battle, it will be a victory." Why, won't you go with me?"

Fiona said helplessly: "Can I not accompany you? Otherwise, you magic idiot won't know how to die there!"

......

The city of Talasha in the sky, a magical sanctuary named after a person.

Castle in the Sky, as the name suggests, is a castle built in the sky, and this famous magical shrine is a castle floating in the sky built entirely by the power of magic.

Along the way, Tang Jie and Fiona took a carriage, out of Ortrensia, and walked more than 30 miles westward, and gradually saw a hill floating in the sky, this hill is pyramid-shaped, only the size of a thumb.

But as the carriage got closer and closer, this hill slowly turned into a big mountain, especially as it got closer, there were gradually more houses and farmhouses on both sides of the originally pastoral road, and the outline of the sky city of Talasia also appeared clearly in front of Tang Jie's eyes little by little.

Just now, he looked at the shape of Talasha like a pyramid from a distance, but when he got a little closer, Tang Jie found that the shape of this castle in the air was more like a spiral spire, with a wide underneath and a sharper and sharper as it went up, and countless magic steles were floating around the sky city.

"This is the monument stone of the magicians of the Sky Castle for generations...... Fiona said, looking at the Sky Castle in front of her.

Tang Jie answered with a smile: "Haven't you never been here?"

"As a mortal enemy of the Sky City, no matter which Chief Elder of the Supreme Magic Council is, the Sky City will be placed in an extremely important strategic position, second only to the Pound Empire!" said Fiona faintly, her blue eyes glinting with wisdom, greedily looking at the construction and every detail of this majestic city.

Tang Jie looked out from the window of the carriage, and he found that the closer he was to the Sky City, the more shops and merchants there were nearby, and the greater the flow of people, so he said casually: "How can there be so many merchants here? Could it be that the Sky City is also a commercial city like Mosanbik?"

Fiona said: "No, the city in the sky has always preached that it is the orthodoxy of magic, so they have been committed to constantly delving into new magic, although the first magic revolution was set off here, but this is not a commercial port like Mozambique, and most importantly, in the era of Reinardo, when the leaders of Mozambique first opened the port of the magic capital, gradually turning a pure ivory tower into a prosperous commercial port. ”

Because of this, there has been no shortage of war of words between Mo Zabik and Sky City, and many magicians have fought a lot of battles because of this, and they have formed a lot of grudges. Fiona rested one arm on the jolting carriage window, her hand resting on her forehead, leaning lazily against the wall of the carriage.

Tang Jie was a little surprised and said, "Oh, tell me what's going on?"

Fiona smiled and said, "After Talasia defected from Mozambique, the magicians of Mozambique thought that this magician had fallen, and he gave up the true meaning and meaning of magic, and instead deliberately pursued pure power and pure innovation, while the magicians of Sky City thought that Mozambique would completely open the city later, preaching that anyone could learn magic, which was a complete destruction of the laws and boundaries of magic. ”

They angrily accused Mozambique of being a filthy place that lost its bottom line and lost its soul, believing that only the city in the sky had the purest magic, and that Mozambique's magic had long been polluted by money, and they laughed and ridiculed it even more, saying that Mozambique had become a huge mercenary distribution center. Fiona had a faint sneer on her lips.

Tang Jie listened attentively and said: "This kind of thing is said to be justified by the public and the mother is reasonable, but in this world, only being strong is the king, and to be fair, there is no reason for the mutual accusations between the two." The reason why Mozambique fell behind Mozambique after its establishment was also because they were satisfied with their own development and achievements, and they were not as open enough to accept more people who were interested in magic like Mozambique later. ”

Fiona looked at Tang Jie with a smile, and a hint of appreciation flashed in her eyes: "You are not impartial, but if you say these words in front of me, aren't you afraid that I will be angry?"

Tang Jie said with a smile: "If you can't even tell if a word is fair or not, it's better not to be the chief elder of Mosanbik as soon as possible, hurry up and follow me, and I'll be a lady of the village for you." ”

Fiona glanced at Tang Jie, turned her head and continued to look at the scenery outside the window.

The two men were talking and watching from the carriage, when suddenly there was a clatter of the wheels under the carriage, and the carriage had walked from the mud-flattened continent to the bluestone paved avenue.

At this time, a thriving town appeared in front of Tang Jie and Fiona.

When I came out of Otrentia, the road was originally a wide road where ten horses could run side by side, but after walking out of ten miles, the road gradually became wide enough to allow four horses to gallop side by side, which is said to have been agreed between Tarasia and Emperor Falco before the construction of the Sky Castle: in order to prevent the imperial capital Otrentia from suddenly sending high-speed cavalry to march to the Sky City, the width of the road was specially limited.

Since most of the ground on both sides was soft farmland, the soldiers had to march through this road, and during the reign of Gases the Great, the emperor tried to widen and rebuild the road, but was thwarted by various methods by Tarasia, and has not succeeded in building it until now.

If Tang Jie stood in the sky and looked at the ground at this time, he would be surprised to find that this town was a huge circular town composed of countless houses, and there were cyan roads on all sides of the town, and these cyan roads were all connected to a gray-yellow dirt road without exception.

At a glance, these roads in all directions resemble more than a dozen arteries and blood vessels, and the town is like a huge heart, constantly swallowing the materials transported by the roads in all directions.

Angel said that the magicians of Sky City do not produce, all materials must be supplied by the state, and Sky City covers a huge area, and there are many people and civilians who help them produce food and vegetables for their lives. Tang Jie said to Fiona while looking at the convoys and businessmen that gradually increased on the road outside the car window.

In retrospect, Angel was right. However, is it necessary for a town to build such a road to the outside world?" asked Tang Jie puzzled.

Fiona sneered, "Hey, isn't it the result of the fight between Garcis and Tarasia?"

Tang Jie asked, "Oh, what do you say?"

Fiona said: "In order to increase the threat and control of Sky City, Garcis offered to rebuild and widen the main road leading to Sky City, which caused a stir in the Falco Empire at the time, and even the magicians of Mozambique heard about it. However, at that time, Talasha moved out of the holy decree of the previous emperor of the Falco Empire, saying that the width of each road leading to Sky City was absolutely not allowed to be changed, otherwise it would be a breach of contract!"

Tang Jie asked with interest, "Then, Garcis won't just give up, right?"

Fiona shook her head and said, "If he just gives up, he won't be Garcy!

Tang Jie thought about it, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he slapped his face: "He won't just build a few more roads next to him, right?"

Fiona smiled and nodded, "You're right, but it's not entirely true. After stopping Garcis's plan, Tarasya thought that he had thwarted His Majesty's plan, but what he did not expect was that in the following months, he suddenly and indirectly discovered a series of rogues near Sky City......"

Tang Jie stroked his palms and laughed, took Fiona's words, and said: "I know, because there are rogues nearby, so Emperor Garcis sent troops and built a military camp nearby in the name of exterminating the rogues, and after exterminating the non-existent rogues, the army has been stationed nearby, and then Emperor Garcis started to build towns where these troops are stationed, and then each town has built a road to the sky city of Talasha?"

Fiona glanced at Tang Jie appreciatively: "You really deserve to be the man who rules the two seas, your reaction really makes me admire, I didn't understand until the teacher finished talking about everything!"

Tang Jie said with a smile: "Tarasia has suffered a dumb loss this time, and this move of Garcis not violated the previous agreement, but also dispersed his forces around Sky City, forming an encirclement, and strengthening the control and threat to Sky City. What a fair and honest plan, remarkable, really remarkable!"

Fiona nodded and said, "So, the battle between the Sky City and the royal family can be seen from this, however, due to the presence of the Sila Empire and the Xigang Empire, half of the nearby troops who were originally monitoring the Sky City have been pulled away, and the Sky City of Tarasia has become a monster that no one can control at this time." The dozen or so roads that Emperor Garcis used to besiege and threaten Sky City have also become convenient ways for Sky City to quickly march into Otrensia at this time, and I don't know how Garcis would react if he saw the situation in front of him. ”

Tang Jie thought for a moment and said, "You mean, now this empire is actually in the hands of Talasya?"

A smile tugged at the corner of Fiona's mouth: " It can be said that it cannot be said that after all, it is still the powerful nobility and knightly class that make up this country, and the magicians of Sky City are not directly involved in various commercial activities like the magicians of Mozambique, they are not engaged in production, and they must rely on the supply of the empire to survive, so they are now actually entangled with this empire, it is difficult to separate, they have no way to replace the emperor, because doing so will plunge the entire empire into chaos, and it will also make them fall into chaos. However, it is impossible for anyone in power to be a good emperor without their support!"

Tang Jie nodded and said, "Are you reminding me not to have illusions about Tarasya?"

Fiona sighed and said, "For Tarasya, his ideal ruler of the empire is a person like Camilla, which is convenient for him to control, so since he has already got what he wants, how can he give up on changing to another option that may not be suitable? ”

Tang Jie heard the meaning of complaining from Fiona's voice, he smiled, grabbed Fiona's hand, and said with a smile: "You are right, but since you know, why do you want to follow me?"

Fiona bit her lip and glared at Tang Jie: "Aren't you afraid that you will be abducted by that old fox?"

Tang Jie laughed out loud and gently stroked the back of Fiona's hand: "We have experienced so many things together, how can we give up on you, a beautiful woman, and choose a bad old man who is about to go into the ground?"

Fiona babbled and said, "This sentence sounds ugly to death, how can you compare me to him!"

Tang Jie laughed and said, "I understand what you say, but when I came here to see him, I actually just said what other people heard." ”

Fiona asked, puzzled, "The others?"

Tang Jie nodded: "Since the Kelsman family has eyeliner everywhere, there is no reason why Camila doesn't look at eyeliner by our side, the reason why I didn't avoid the waiter just now and said these words is to let Camila know that I went to visit Tarasya, and to win her over, and then see how this woman reacts." And the reason why I came to meet Tarasia was because this guy sent me a very unique magical message......"

"Something unique, when?" Fiona asked.

"Just before I received the invitation, as soon as I received this invitation, I immediately saw a line of golden text in my mind, which said: If you want to know your identity and secret, come to me. Tang Jie frowned slightly and said.

"Your identity is secret?" Fiona became more and more puzzled.

Tang Jie nodded and said: "You may not know, Octavir has always regarded me as her beloved Athos, and I have met a mysterious person before, called Horn, who used to be a crew member with me, but this guy heard Octavier say that it was Athos's most powerful assistant a hundred years ago, this person is a magician, and he said that I am both Athos and not Athos." ”

Fiona's eyes widened, "So are you or not?"

Tang Jie spread his hands: "I don't know, so, didn't I come to find the answer?"

The two of them were talking, and suddenly the carriage stopped, and a loud shout came from outside: "Come and dismount, horses are not allowed to ride within the Sky City!"

Tang Jie and Fiona glanced at each other, the city of Tarasia in the sky, it's here!
