Chapter 2114: Chapter 2115: City of Splendor
“Previously, Hydra ntioned during Star Gazing Day that the Gumman Kingdom would undergo a major change in the future. At the ti, many people thought that the disasters of the Eternal Night Country were pouring into the Gumman Kingdom. But on the morning before yesterday, a Prophet Wizard at the exchange eting said he saw the palace where King Gumman and his offspring resided engulfed in raging flas. The fire continued relentlessly for three days,” Maya said with a gentle sigh.
“Only the palace caught fire, while the people in the city were not significantly affected, which is unlike the disaster faced by the Eternal Night Country. Therefore, the disaster in the Gumman Kingdom may be an independent event.”
Considering the independent event, and then looking at this matter, it appears sowhat peculiar.
King Gumman is a powerful Wizard, and certainly not weak. Ordinarily, King Gumman rarely leaves the palace, so how could he tolerate the palace being burned for three days?
Maya worried if King Gumman might have t with an accident in this fire disaster.
Although the Gumman Kingdom does not border the Pamiji Plateau, it is not far from it. With the wizard organizations of the Eternal Night Country relocated, the nearest large wizard organization to the Gumman Kingdom is indeed the Barbarian Cave.
If King Gumman had an accident, and it is a transcendent disaster, it is very likely to affect the Barbarian Cave. Thus, Maya specifically ntioned this prophecy.
Rhein, upon hearing this, remained indifferent. Although King Gumman has decent strength, he is but one person; there are more than a handful in the Barbarian Cave stronger than him. So even if King Gumman does encounter an accident, the likelihood of it impacting the Barbarian Cave is slim, so he treated it as gossip, not placing it in mind.
Angel, hearing this, narrowed his eyes. He wasn’t worried that the affair of the Gumman Kingdom would affect the Barbarian Cave, but if King Gumman indeed t with an accident, he had several candidates in mind.
Could it have been their doing? Brothers Suise appeared in Angel’s mind.
Soon, Angel shook his head, and the illusion in his mind vanished without a trace. Previously he might have worried that Suise might retaliate against King Gumman and implicate Pat Manor, but now that they’ve left Pat Manor, those worries naturally disappeared.
Nevertheless, Angel still paid close attention to this matter, as it was quite likely the work of Brothers Suise, given that Suise was his ntor’s elder brother…
These two relatively valuable prophecies, upon Rhein’s hearing, elicited a flat reaction. To Maya, this was normal, as the major revelations from the recent Star Gazing Day were too nurous and shocking, making these current prophecies seem insignificant in comparison.
“Do you have anything else to say?” Rhein asked.
Maya thought for a mont: “I heard from so friends that regarding the matter of the Seed, currently so wizard organizations have started investigations in various places and have discovered several suspected sites of the Seed sect. Presently, there are three confird locations of gatherings for Seed followers, primarily overseas.”
In Rhein’s eyes, a flash of cold intent appeared: “There are fewer transcendents overseas. Starting from overseas indeed can pry open the Southern Domain’s niche of belief. Moreover, their choice of overseas is quite evident, with intentions nothing more than encircle and infiltrate, which, if unchecked, might allow them to succeed. However, since we’re already prepared, their ambitions are unlikely to be realized.”
“Indeed, but you should still be careful; they will certainly cause trouble at the tea party,” Maya cautioned.
Rhein waved his hand: “I already know this, and the screening will be stricter than ever before.”
“Then I’m relieved,” Maya sighed with relief.
Rhein said: “Speaking of the tea party, this ti’s tea party is expected to bring an unexpected surprise.”
Maya’s eyes flashed with doubt, looking at Rhein, puzzled.
Yet Rhein did not speak directly but said mildly: “You’ll know when you return. Also, rember to protect Dororo well.”
With the closing of the light screen, the brief call concluded as well.
Of course, Rhein was heading to the Wilderness of Dreams with Angel; while on the Crown Star Church side, Maya returned to his temporary room with furrowed brows, contemplating sothing unknown.
After a long while, Maya opened his eyes and looked at Dororo, who sat opposite, closing his eyes for cultivation.
“…What do you think of the surprise Lord Rhein ntioned at this tea party?” Maya shared the previous conversation and asked for Dororo’s analysis.
Dororo’s brow slightly lowered: “Unknown, but since Lord Rhein took the initiative to inform the ntor, it seems the surprise is indeed worth ntioning. Why is the ntor so attentive?”
Maya sighed lightly: “Yesterday I t with Lord Crowned Star, with three Observers present at the ti, and Lord Crowned Star ntioned seeing a shocking reform coming from the south, one that would sweep across the Wizards’ Realm. The ti of the reform coincides precisely with the tea party.”
The direction is right, and the timing is matching. Coupled with today’s mysterious deanor of Rhein, Maya couldn’t help but think more.
Upon hearing this, Dororo’s eyes flashed with a swift brilliance, as if he pondered sothing.
A mont later, Dororo’s mouth slightly curved, and he softly said: “Sotis reform isn’t necessarily a bad thing, I’m sowhat looking forward to this reform.”
Maya, of course, understood this principle, but reform often also signifies unpredictable variables, and if it indeed originates from the Barbarian Cave, he still harbors so concern.
After a brief silence, Maya said: “The content of the exchange eting is more or less covered; tomorrow, we shall set off on our return.”
…
Wilderness of Dreams.
Rhein looked at the blueprint sketched out on paper in his hands, with an expression filled with unstoppable wonder.
The paper in his hand was the blueprint of the New City. The current location was Jon’s office in the Marine Theater.
The reason for Rhein’s astonishnt was simply that the design of this blueprint exceeded Rhein’s imagination.
Before seeing the blueprint, he acquired so information about Jon, the designer, from Angel. In his anticipation, how could Jon, as a mortal, design a city to accommodate transcendents?
The vision and scope were not on the sa level; how could it be achieved?
Rhein had even planned out his wording, how to replace the New City plan without harming Angel’s fascination with his enlightennt ntor.
But when he truly saw this blueprint, all the previous rhetoric beca epheral fantasies.
The impact brought by this blueprint was truly too profound.
Firstly, the city depicted in the blueprint was very exquisite, and this Rhein acknowledged. Yet, exquisite does not equate to practicality; artistic creation often transcends reality. When so mortal artists channel their extraordinary dreamings into paper and pen, even Rhein as a transcendent watching from above could not help but marvel, though he still didn’t think the extraordinary depicted could enter reality.
But this blueprint was different from what those artists painted; those artists rely painted dreams while Jon not only dreamt but also brought them into reality.
Almost all the extraordinary aspects presented in the drawings can be achieved through the ans of a Wizard. This shows that, even though Jon is a mortal, he has deeply researched the abilities of Wizards. Just this point is already quite remarkable.
Moreover, the architectural style in the drawings opened Lord Reine’s eyes.
Though the overall style carries a hint of the Wizards’ Realm flavor, upon closer inspection, one can find that the architectural underlying logic of the entire drawing is a completely different core.
Lord Reine has visited many worlds and seen different civilizations’ architectures, but he had never seen buildings similar to those in the drawings before.
It’s like a city under the peak civilization that is not inferior to the Wizard’s civilization.
In the tall and dense skyscrapers, under the interweaving of tal and steam, occasionally appear carved railings and flying eaves, vermilion wooden platforms, not only blending without discord but also creating a unique atmosphere.
It’s like ancient moonlight shining into the night of today. Even though it’s all soft light, due to the different inner connotations, the perception is completely different.
According to Jon, this is a fantastical punk city with an oriental flavor.
Whether “oriental” or “punk,” Lord Reine actually doesn’t understand, but that doesn’t prevent him from appreciating this beauty.
Practicality combined with appearance, even Lord Reine had to admit that if this city suddenly appeared, it would surely beco a renowned city not inferior to Sky chanical City!
At this mont, Lord Reine couldn’t bring himself to suggest replacing the new city; this blueprint itself is the best testant!
Lord Reine also acknowledged that even the most proficient in art and architecture in Barbarian Cave, Wallace and Silentin, probably couldn’t design a city blueprint better and more complete than this.
“Lord Reine, what do you think of this new city?” Angel spoke up only after seeing Lord Reine put down the blueprints.
“Excellent!” Lord Reine didn’t hold back on the praise, his eyes gleaming: “If it can really be built, it won’t be weaker than the Winsbills back in the day, and in terms of style, it might even surpass the Sky chanical City!”
Sky chanical City is absolutely hardcore, while this new city retains the hardcore aspect yet also carries a touch of tenderness. Perhaps it doesn’t reach the extre of a single style but is more suitable to the tastes of many.
Lord Reine’s satisfaction almost overflowed from his eyes.
Angel and Jon glanced at each other, also breathed a sigh of relief. Although the construction of the new city doesn’t necessarily require Lord Reine’s approval, his endorsent can accelerate the construction significantly. Moreover, Lord Reine’s support can also enhance the new city’s reputation and status.
“When Jon took out the new city’s blueprints from the drawer earlier, I also glanced at them. They indeed seem good. But are they worth such praise from you?” At this mont, the office door was pushed open, and Tree Spirit ca in from outside.
When Lord Reine arrived at the Marine Theater, he had already seen Tree Spirit. He inquired then about what Tree Spirit was doing here, but Tree Spirit was mysterious and didn’t explain, so Lord Reine didn’t bother to ask further. The Wilderness of Dreams is a fresh world, and there must be secrets he hasn’t discovered yet; anyway, he can enter the Wilderness of Dreams anyti, so he wasn’t in a hurry to get answers from Tree Spirit. He could slowly explore himself.
Because he had previously encountered Tree Spirit, seeing him now was no surprise.
“You can see for yourself.” Lord Reine handed the blueprints to Tree Spirit.
Tree Spirit murmured, took the blueprints, glanced at them, and then beca imrsed.
His reaction was almost the sa as Lord Reine’s, after all, the layout and vision were extraordinary, and after carefully analyzing them, the conclusion Tree Spirit reached was identical to Lord Reine’s.
Once the new city is built and becos an extraordinary city, combined with the added value inherent in the Wilderness of Dreams, the new city will undoubtedly beco a dazzling pearl in the Wizards’ Realm.
Tree Spirit deeply exhaled and turned to glance at Jon: “Mr. Jon, I truly admire you.”
Jon smiled slightly, accepting the praise. The culture of this world prefers straightforwardness, and modesty isn’t considered an especially excellent virtue.
“These blueprints of the new city could be a tiless masterpiece in reality. However, speaking of constructing a new city in reality isn’t much of a problem, but in the Wilderness of Dreams, there are so difficulties.” As Tree Spirit spoke, he softly asked, “Where do the needed materials for construction co from?”
“Extraordinary aspects are quite easy to achieve in reality. But currently, in the Wilderness of Dreams, even in the highest magic regions, it’s hard to fully replicate the new city’s details. How will these extraordinary aspects be presented?”
These are the core issues. Building a city is not like making Magic Bread or Mana Hut, which can appear out of thin air.
Every detail needs consideration. Apart from other concerns, the most important are the materials and construction capabilities. If even the most basic details cannot be achieved, how can a city be built?
After Tree Spirit asked, Lord Reine also nodded. Design is one dinsion, while construction is another. Previously, he only evaluated the design without discussing the construction.
“We already considered these points when initially designing the blueprints,” Angel confidently replied: “I’d say this is the least concerning aspect. Moreover, since it is an extraordinary city, naturally everything will be made with the best materials.”
“Everything with the best materials?” Tree Spirit teased with a sly tone: “I don’t know where your confidence cos from, but for most buildings, the best foundational materials are Container Magic Soil and Pure Energy Water. Are you sure the new city can use these?”
The new city’s buildings are densely packed with layers overlapping their own flavor. But if using top materials, that’s definitely not enough.
Container Magic Soil and Pure Energy Water; building a Wizard’s Tower as a Wizard, utilizing these materials would likely empty their entire fortune. Not to ntion, it’s for a whole city.
Angel: “Of course, it can be used. I’m not just going to use Container Magic Soil and Pure Energy Water; I’ll use even better materials!”
Angel’s words surprised Tree Spirit and Lord Reine. If earlier, they thought Angel was joking, now witnessing Angel’s serious expression, they can confirm that Angel truly intends as he says.
Furthermore, according to Tree Spirit’s understanding, given Angel’s character, he doesn’t indulge in lying.
If he truly uses materials even more supre than Container Magic Soil and Pure Energy Water, the city constructed would undoubtedly reach the pinnacle of city architecture in Southern Domain’s history!
It could even challenge the giant cities of Origin World!
But truly utilizing the supre materials, is it enough?
Does the Wilderness of Dreams contain this much material reserve?
Due to these difficulties being apparent, Tree Spirit and Lord Reine were sowhat doubtful. However, Angel spoke sincerely, creating inner conflict for them; can it really be achieved?
“You’re not lying?” Tree Spirit couldn’t help but further inquire after seeing Angel nod: “How will you achieve it?”
Angel replied with a slightly mysterious smile: “Although the Wilderness of Dreams is different from the Dream Realm, possessing sturdy Laws nearly akin to reality, it is ultimately a seam between dream and reality, and cannot be fully thought of in reality’s logic; it still carries a hint of dream traits.”
