The Floating City, also known as the Holy City.
This is a massive city built directly over a vast ocean.
Its size might be hard to grasp, but just know that during the peak period of the Hundred Races, it accommodated billions without feeling crowded.
If you were to walk non-stop, it might take you a whole day to get from one side to the other, giving you an idea of its imnse size.
Before Lin Yi’s rebirth, the opening to the Floating City was when everyone’s average level was above 40.
In the previous life, the Floating City was, in modern terms, a vital hub for player exchange and trade among different countries.
Although each country’s equipnt and ga background have slight differences, the attributes and attack effects of the equipnt are consistent.
Even though each country has professions (races) with its national characteristics, all professions boil down to two categories: physical and magic.
Players can choose their equipnt based on attribute preference, as long as the equipnt isn’t restricted to specific professions.
As a result, equipnt with national traits ca to be known as "fashion" in later generations, and so with average attributes but good looks could surprisingly sell for high prices here.
At the initial opening of the Floating City, players could only enter via their own battle zone’s Teleportation Array.
However, they couldn’t use the Teleportation Arrays of other battle zones in the Floating City to enter different countries.
Lin Yi initially thought that this Floating City would only be accessible after players reached a certain level, unaware of a special task required before its opening.
However, thinking about how only the world’s top ten players who passed level 20 could receive this task, Lin Yi felt relieved.
In the past life, he didn’t have to be in the top ten; reaching the top million in passing level 20 was already impressive.
After all, only in the Hua Country District, there were nearly ten million professional players, not to ntion players worldwide.
After being teleported by the Guardian Elderly Woman, Lin Yi found himself in what seed like soone’s room.
Inside was a dusty large bed and a few other simple wooden chairs, with nothing else.
Lin Yi opened the task panel, displaying only one task:
[Repair the Floating City Teleportation Array]
Go to Floating City coordinates 324:210 to repair the Teleportation Array to the Eastern Continent.
Go to Floating City coordinates 304:190 to repair the Teleportation Array to the Western Continent.
Task Difficulty: ★★★★★ (Highest)
Task Reward: ???
Then Lin Yi opened the map, only to find that except for his current location, everything else was pitch black.
This indicated that other areas of the map were unexplored and would only appear on the map after he had passed through them.
Nevertheless, Lin Yi wasn’t concerned.
Because he was more familiar with the Floating City than anyone else.
In his previous life, he frequently ca here to buy and sell equipnt materials.
The Floating City is constructed in the shape of a massive circle.
At the center is the Floating City’s City Lord’s Mansion, and due to its unique geographical position, the City Lord is appointed by the Hundred Races Alliance Leader.
The Hundred Races manage all affairs of the Floating City, and any disagreents are resolved by a collective vote.
Hence, there is no real-ti controlling figure behind the Floating City.
In Lin Yi’s previous life, the City Lord was a powerful human.
As for who that was, Lin Yi didn’t really know.
But the Floating City guards were composed of various races, collectively protecting the city’s security.
Additionally, the city is divided into four huge areas:
The Comrcial Area, the Profession Area, the Residential Area, and the Trading Area.
Many might confuse the Comrcial Area with the Trading Area.
The Comrcial Area consists of shops opened by various races (officially), where players can buy equipnt, materials, etc., unique to different countries and races, though at a high price.
Official shops like blacksmiths and tailors are also set up here.
However, players cannot apply to open their shops here.
Understanding the role of the Comrcial Area makes the Trading Area’s function clear.
The Trading Area is specifically designated for player transactions.
Any player can set up stalls and trade here by paying a certain amount of gold coins.
This area is dedicated to player-to-player exchanges.
The Profession Area allows players from different battle zones to find their profession ntors and upgrade their professions.
In addition, it offers unique professions not available in their countries, including rare supportive professions for player selection.
The Residential Area is where various race representatives residing in the Floating City live.
When players enter, it becos the ’offices’ for major guilds.
There are various types of houses available, large and small.
Players must purchase a residence to establish a guild ’office’.
However, buying a house cos with conditions.
The condition is that the buyer must have at least one recomndation proof issued by a Racial Leader to qualify for a purchase.
Later, it was said that obtaining a recomndation proof from a Clan Leader required eting three conditions, which were indispensable.
The first condition is to raise the reputation with the race to the highest level.
The second condition is spending over 100,000 gold coins within that race (reputation gain by spending has a limit).
The third condition is that the person must be a professional player of that race.
Only those who et all three conditions can hope to obtain the recomndation proof issued by a Clan Leader.
The Teleportation Arrays to the East and West Continents are located in a large plaza between the Trading Area and the Comrcial Area in the Floating City.
Lin Yi looked at his current location and easily deduced that he was in the Residential Area of the Floating City.
The position he was in was south while the Teleportation Arrays were in the north; it was entirely the opposite direction...
This discovery left Lin Yi speechless.
Who knows if short-distance Teleportation Arrays on the Floating Island would work.
If not, it would take almost a whole day to walk to the location of the East-West Continent Teleportation Arrays from here!
Lin Yi recalled the position of the Residential Area’s Teleportation Array, finding it not far from his current location.
To complete the task quickly, Lin Yi planned his next steps before heading straight to open the door.
Lin Yi was on the third floor of a building. When he opened the door, he was stunned by the sight in the distance.
"That is..."
Seeing the silhouette flickering in the distance, Lin Yi withdrew into the room in panic, his heart trembling:
"Abyss Demon Race!"
