Chapter 5: Villages and Cities

There are no city walls, no watchtowers, endless buildings are lined up one after another, and it is difficult to see the end at a glance, and the sparkling lights shine in the night, like a colorful carpet spread on the loess of hell.

In the night sky, under the blood moon, Dick and Dimihera stood in the air, Dick looked at the boundless buildings under his feet, and couldn't help but sigh: "Is this the Star Source City? ”

Demichra immediately looked at him with an extremely strange gaze.

Dick scratched his head, "What's wrong?" Dimi, am I not right?"

Di Mihera laughed "poof", and she leaned back for a while before saying, "This is just a small village in hell, not even a 'town', and it is even worse than Star Source City. Fortunately, there are no outsiders here, otherwise this face would be a big loss. ”

"Village?" Dick's eyes widened, indescribably horrified.

Dimihera didn't give him time to react, and said directly: "Let's go, let's go to this village and find an inn to rest, and wait until we have recovered our strength before we set off, it is very dangerous to run out of continuous flights in the wilderness of hell." As she spoke, she tugged at Raddick's sleeve.

Dick recovered from his shock and flew after the "small" village of Xiangxia behind Dimihera.

The two landed in a remote alley, dressed up, and then turned onto a street and walked along the avenue. The avenue is wide enough to accommodate more than a dozen horse-drawn carriages running side by side.

Dick turned his head curiously to look around, and there were people walking and driving in the streets. It was not horses that pulled the cart, but all kinds of rare birds and beasts. Some exist in the legends of the mortal plane, while others are alien beasts that Dick has never heard of. Most of these beast strengths are at the Saint Realm level. It is quite intelligent and can walk automatically without being driven by a driver.

Dick also found that the people who walked on the streets were generally at the level of the Holy Realm, and those who were qualified to drive forward were mostly strong in the Divine Realm. It seems that the hellish plane, like the mortal world, is also hierarchical.

On both sides of the avenue are rows of buildings, with quiet and leisurely houses, shops with people coming and going, fragrant restaurants, and simple and elegant libraries. There are also blacksmiths selling blades and armor and crowded markets.

Everything is so similar to the mortal city.

Moving on, Dick and the others gradually came to a prosperous commercial area, and Dick even saw a holy realm or gods shouting and selling at the door of the shop like a small person:

"It's a big sale, the unicorn fur produced in the heavenly plane only costs three hundred divine stones!"

"Don't miss it when you pass by, the spirit of fire in the Hell Fire Basin, one thousand divine stones!"

"The godhead of the upper heavenly gods, the price starts at 25,000 divine stones!"

......

Dick felt a little weird when he heard these cries, and it made people laugh and cry.

Demihera glanced back at Dick. As if guessing what he was thinking, the contract sounded in his mind, "The gods worshipped by mortals are not so unattainable. There are countless gods, and they also need to form a society, and they also need to run for their own interests. There is also a need to fight for survival. You'll get used to it slowly. ”

Dick smiled wryly, "Isn't there no god in the hearts of mortals in this world?"

Dimihera glanced up at the blood moon hanging in the night, and said solemnly, "Only the Lord is a truly transcendent existence. It is supreme as the mortals believe. Transcendent and omnipresent. Omnipotent. ”

"Is the Lord God really omnipotent? We are remembered by the Lord of Light, and don't we live just as well?" Dick disagreed.

"Omnipotence is indeed a bit exaggerated, but the Liliang of the Lord God is absolutely unquestionable, and no one can disobey the will of the Lord. Dimichra said slowly.

As they spoke, the two of them had come to a rather upscale hotel, a seven-story building decorated with classical luxury. The door of the inn, made of strange metal and glowing with a dark golden glow under the blood moon, was now wide open. Looking inside, you can see that the ceiling of the hotel is inlaid with several moonstones the size of a basin, which shines the entire lobby as bright as day, and the light also shines through the doorway and onto the long street.

A long, bright red carpet runs from the lobby to the door. There was a waiter standing on each side of the carpet in the doorway, all dressed in well-made tuxedos, with a smile and a gentle attitude, but Dick was paying attention to their demigod-level strength.

Seeing Dick and the others come forward, one of the two waiters at the door stepped forward and smiled, "Welcome, is there anything you need our services for?" He was polite and did not despise the two of them because of their low cultivation.

"Prepare a room for the two of us. Dimichra stepped forward and said calmly.

The waiter's smile became more kind: "Our superior suite has 2,000 divine stones per day, the medium suite has 200 divine stones per day, and the inferior suite has 20 divine stones per day, which one do you want?"

"Inferior suite. Dimihera said without hesitation.

After paying the fee, the waiter ushered the Dick couple into a palatial suite with two living rooms, three bedrooms, a kitchen and a bathroom.

"Is this also called an inferior suite?" Seeing the waiter politely retreat, Dick finally couldn't help but say.

"You only have to think about the fact that the person who built this room is a powerhouse above the Holy Realm, and you can understand it. Dimichra pulled a chair and sat down, smiling.

Dick nodded, and then asked, "We're not short of money, Weishenme is going to the inferior suite?" The Temple of the God of War left by Tlansius was full of treasures, so that Dick and the two of them had no money troubles in hell at all.

"Why, do you like to enjoy it so much?" said Dimhera, looking up in her chair and looking straight at him.

"I'm just curious. ”

Dimichra smiled and said, "Because, in hell, except for seventy-two cities, all places are not absolutely safe. The edict prohibiting private fighting in the city comes from the Lord of Darkness, and violators are to be executed as provoking the majesty of the Lord God.

However, the decree prohibiting the use of hands in villages and towns only comes from the village chief or town head, and at most he is a high-ranking god, and there is no deterrent effect at all. Therefore it is not appropriate for us to display our wealth in front of outsiders, except in the city. ”

Dick pinched his chin and thought about it, and nodded thoughtfully. The two of them then talked for a long time, and then they each rested to recover the consumption of the flying road.

A day later, Dick and Dimhera had finished their studies, and they left the unknown village and continued their journey.

Time flies by in a hurry, and the only pastime the two have on the road is to fight each other. After an eight-day flight, stopping in five villages or towns along the way, the Dirks roamed the Hellland and finally arrived at their destination, the Terrans in the only city of Hell, Starsource City.

In the distance, you can see a black line gradually floating on the horizon, and the ends of the black line are not visible, and as the distance closes, you can see that it is the wall of a huge city.

Even if he had already been mentally prepared, the sheer size of Starsource City still frightened Dick: the wall made of black boulders was a thousand meters high, more than a hundred meters thick, and its length and width were immeasurable, stretching all the way to the horizon.

It's like a giant city in a fairy tale, and everyone standing in front of this giant city can really feel their own insignificance. I can't help but feel awe.

There is a city gate every kilometer on the boundless city wall, and there is a long queue to enter the city in front of each city gate.

At each city gate stood two columns of soldiers wearing cyan armor, most of whom were demigods, but there were also a small number of lower-ranking god powerhouses. Their armor is depicted with patterns, and a special mark is etched into the seat on their left chest, which looks like a whirlwind.

The soldiers lined up on both sides of the city gate, their halberds crossed in their hands, blocking the way into the city. All those entering the city had to pay a fee to the staff next to the city gate before the soldiers would separate their halberds and make way for them.

Dick and Dimihera randomly chose a team and lined up at the end. (To be continued......)
