Warhammer Wizard

The New Year is 2535 years.

Tuk Tuk Tuk!

Kalodi was awakened by the knock on the door, with a splitting headache, but when he opened his eyes, it was dim, the air was humid and hot, the bed board and the whole room were shaking slightly, and the narrow cabin he was in made him dazed for a while before he remembered that he was not there. Comfortable home.

I had a hangover last night and lay down all night without even taking off my clothes.

A voice sounded outside the door again: "Kalodi, are you awake?"

"woke up."

Kalodi got up quickly, and the first thing he did was to check the submachine gun that he did not leave his body even when he was sleeping. The dark gun body is sturdy and solid, reflecting a faint metallic luster in the dimness, and the tentacles are cold, but it adds a bit of confidence and security to him.

As a gunman, the soul gun is his second life.

The appearance of this submachine gun is exactly the same as the mass-produced submachine gun sold by the Mechanics Union, at least on the surface, there is no difference.

In fact, it is a special model, equipped with an expensive and rare dimensional magazine, which stores three different bullets, with a total of 20,000 rounds. Whether it is lethality, rate of fire or range, it is higher than ordinary submachine guns. .

It's called "Black Star", and it was a coming-of-age gift that I got on my eighteenth birthday last year.

He stroked the gun body, lost for a moment.

"Carlody?"

Another crisp and tactful female voice sounded, "The ship will arrive in Gotham soon, come out quickly, we are all with you."

Just by listening to the sound, you can tell that its owner is a young girl, at least not too old.

A pretty face appeared in Karodi's mind, and he quickly inserted the submachine gun into the holster on the outside of his thigh, patted it, and made sure that it was very firm, and then went to open the door.

A man and a woman stood outside the door.

The man was about twenty-five years old, his face was extremely handsome, he was more beautiful than most women, he was tall and long, and he wore an elegant enchanted robe. At first glance, it was easy to mistake him for a woman. After a second look, you will find that his demeanor has no woman's demeanor at all, his body is always surrounded by the breeze, and his pupils are a strange cyan color, as if a hurricane is brewing in his eyes, and it will erupt at any time.

Anyone with the slightest knowledge can recognize him as a nasty storm warlock.

There was a younger woman standing beside him, with a pretty and moving face with a hint of greenness. She was obviously only sixteen or seventeen years old, but her figure was well developed. Even wearing a dark purple leather armor could not cover her up. The talent, the whole body is permeated with youthful and lively atmosphere.

The two have similar appearances, and they are obviously a pair of siblings.

"Harmon, Filaya."

Kalodi scratched his head and apologized a little embarrassedly, "I drank too much last night. I have never drank so much alcohol before, so I overslept."

Warlock Harmon nodded gently, expressing his understanding.

Filaya said angrily: "We have knocked on the door three times. If you don't come out again, we will break through the door, for fear of seeing something we shouldn't see."

"There's nothing that shouldn't be seen..." Caro Di was afraid of her misunderstanding, and quickly explained, "You can come in and watch as you like."

Seeing his helpless look, Filaya immediately smiled and said, "Just kidding you!"

Carodie breathed a sigh of relief.

Harmon urged seriously: "Kalodi, if you are not good at drinking, try to drink as little as possible in the future. Extraordinary people must always stay awake and alert, even when sleeping. Although the ship is safer, accidents may occur. , to beware of those who have evil intentions."

"Yes, I remember." Caro Di nodded solemnly, "Thank you, Brother Harmon."

In fact, he also understands these experiences, but the ship is getting closer and closer to Gotham City, and he is getting more and more nervous. He wanted to relax in the bar on the upper deck last night, and Filaya was there, so he couldn't help drinking more. .

"Don't talk about this, we're going to the deck soon, there's no good place to be late." Feraya urged.

Kalodi was also in a hurry, "Let's go."

The three went out of the middle cabin and boarded the uppermost deck of the ship.

When they arrived, there were already a lot of people on the deck, and the best positions were occupied. They could only stand on the side of the ship. Fortunately, it was the side that was close, and the view was also very good, and it was facing the shield. the direction of the island.

By this time it was halfway through the morning and the sun had risen very high.

In late autumn, the weather is cool.

There is not a single cloud in the sky, and the sea is relatively calm, with only a little sea breeze blowing on the face, which is very comfortable.

The horizon can already be seen in front of the ship. As the ship moves forward, the horizon is getting closer and bigger, and soon it becomes an endless coastline, from west to east, across the route. in front of.

"The Shield Island is here!"

"There is Shield Island in front, and we will disembark soon."

There were cheers from the crowd on the deck.

The three of Calodi were also very happy. They boarded the boat from the Gulf of Albert and sailed south along the west coast of the New World. Along the way, they passed the city of Rabaz and arrived at the Wind and Thunder Islands near the southern continent, and then from the narrow between the new world and the southern continent. The "Torrijos" canal crosses and turns back north to the city of Costello.

Kastro is the human stronghold farthest from the Empire. From here, it will go north along the east coast of the New World, with no ports or strongholds in the middle, until Shield Island.

The whole voyage is three weeks.

Aside from the three stopovers, Carodie was on the verge of vomiting.

They still boarded the ship from the Gulf of Albert, only half way, some passengers boarded from the Empire and stayed on the ship for a month and a half, even the superhumans could not bear the hard sea life, many people lost weight lock up.

Filaya cheered and looked at the shield island ahead.

Soon, the outline of the city appeared on the horizon, and some tall buildings could gradually be seen clearly.

"Look!"

Filaya pointed to the front and said excitedly: "There should be Gotham City!"

Both Karodi and Harmon opened their eyes wide. Karodi was the shooter, and the first main soul merged was Ye Xiao, who had better eyesight and could see farther.

Immediately, he found a huge shadow standing on the distant horizon, straight up and down, like a curtain blocking the area. The shadow curtain is located on the west side of Gotham City, which appears to be nestled in the bay.

"What it is?"

Kalodi was horrified. You must know that the ship is still dozens of miles away from Gotham City, but you can see this shadow, which shows how huge it is.

As the ship approached, someone soon saw a vision.

"What is that dark shadow?" Someone on the deck exclaimed, pointing to the shadow curtain in the bay, and everyone's attention was attracted.

"My God!"

"The goddess is on top!" Some people got scared and couldn't help but worry: "Will something happen to Gotham City?"

"That's the Dark Sky Array."

A crew member explained loudly, seeing everyone looking at him, his face was a bit smug: "Two years ago, Speaker Renne arranged this magic circle on the 'Island of Truth' in Shield Island Bay, and the whole The island and the sky are covered, and no one is allowed to approach. It is said that a magnificent magic temple is being built on the island, and it will be completed soon.”

The passengers looked surprised.

Most of them are ordinary people, coming to the New World for the first time.

I chose to take a boat instead of the teleportation array because the economy did not allow it, and the news was relatively closed. I didn’t know much about Gotham, but I was attracted by Gotham City’s growing fame and many legends. Board the ship, trying to find a way out in this emerging land.

There are not many extraordinary people like the three of Caro Di, among the passengers.

"It turns out that there is a magic temple!"

Filaya was very curious.

She is a first-level shadow warrior and can see more clearly than ordinary people. After visual inspection, she was startled, and she couldn't help but say: "If you can see it from such a distance, it must be higher than the wizard's tower. This magic temple is too big, right? "

Harmon was also sighed, his eyes filled with awe.

He is a follower of the goddess of magic.

Kalodi whispered: "It should be more than 300 meters high, and it is much wider than the wizard's tower and several times larger. If it is built, it will definitely be the largest temple of the goddess in the mortal world, even bigger than the Temple of Truth in Nothril. Big, and much bigger."

"Kalodi, have you been to Northrael?" Filaya turned her head back.

"Uh, no." Caro Di looked shy, "but I have seen the Temple of Truth in the book, and I have always wanted to go but have no chance."

"I want to go too, let's go together if we have a chance in the future." Filaya immediately proposed, looking longing.

Kalodi readily agreed, "Okay!"

Soon after, the ship turned westward and entered the "Xiawan" of the shield island bay, which was shaped like a huge eagle's mouth with an opening to the east. Strait, sailing into the "Shangwan" of Shield Island Bay.

On the right side of the bay is Gotham City.

A city wall that is dozens of miles long is built along the shore, and you can't see the end at a glance. Fortunately, the upper deck of the ship is very high. If you look over the tall city wall, you can see high-rise buildings rising from the ground. The streets are extremely wide. Horses in parallel.

The streets are full of traffic and pedestrians.

The architectural style of the city is very different from that of the Empire. Low-rise houses are rarely seen, and buildings dozens of meters high can be seen everywhere, with at least seven or eight floors.

There are also many buildings with 20 or even 30 stories or more, and they are very dense and aggregated into huge communities.

In the commercial center of the city, there are dozens of skyscrapers that are more than 100 meters high, and the tallest is even more than 300 meters, which is only slightly shorter than the wizard tower built on the high ground in the middle.

The shape and design of these skyscrapers are unique. None of them are repeated. Many of them are attached to the glass curtain wall.

The people on the ship saw their eyes straight.

They have never seen such a city. Gotham City is different from any city in the world, but they cannot describe what architectural style it is. There is only one feeling in their hearts.

That is shock!

This is exactly as they expected. The shield bird was still a blasphemous place where the undead were rampant. In just a few years, what could it be built?

It is not bad to be able to build a rough city base, and everyone is mentally prepared to enter a dilapidated small city.

As a result, I saw a bustling city that I couldn't even imagine in my dreams!

The sharp-eyed Karodi has a new discovery.

In Gotham City, there is a 100-meter-high minaret every three kilometers or so. Their shape is somewhat similar to the wizard's tower, but the diameter is much smaller. It is obviously just a relatively high base, and there is a faint rune energy from the inside. Revealed, a turret was installed on top.

Harmon also noticed these cannons and whispered: "Those should be the rumored electro-optical cannons."

Karody nodded.

He looked at most of the city, and there were hundreds of electro-optical cannons that could be seen within his field of vision. They formed a huge firepower coverage network, leaving no dead ends, and could attack every area of ​​the city, including the ground and the sky.

As extraordinary people, their news is definitely better than ordinary people.

Since the Xinxiang Floating City was recaptured by Speaker Rennes more than two years ago, the Scourge has not stopped attacking Gotham City. Fighting takes place almost every day, and every month there is a larger wave of undead offensives, involving the Liches of the Dead Knot Sigil, sending troops into the city to raid.

However, the Scourge has not caused major casualties.

Most of the undead raids were noticed at the first time, and then fired by the electro-optical cannons, easily destroying the enemy.

It is the existence of these electro-optical cannons that ensures the security and development of Gotham City.

Of course, the Knights of the Holy Lance also played an important role.

Kalodi looked to the north, there was Abraken, and a turret was also built on the narrow and flat Abraken Peninsula, covering the entire peninsula. The city foundation under the fort has begun to take shape, and two bridges span the East Strait and are connected to the shield island.

There are also many turrets on the west coast of the shield island bay, and the earth has been purified and become endless fertile farmland.

Obviously, Gotham City is already exploring a new continent westward.

But the most striking thing was the shadow curtain, which stood right in the middle of the bay, about the same distance from Shield Island, Abraken, and the western mainland coast.

By this time the ship had already left.

You have to look up from the boat to barely see the top of it. Half of the sky is covered, as if a large piece is missing from the field of vision. , out of breath.

Karodi and the Harmon brothers and sisters looked at each other and saw the wonder and doubt in each other's eyes.

This is not like a temple!

During the three-person exchange, the ship docked at the "Red Hook Pier" on the west side of the bay. After entering the berth, the crew shouted: "Gotham City is here, everyone, get off the ship."

Passengers can't wait to get ashore.

Kalodi stood on the land and felt extremely at ease. After taking a few steps, the lightness under his feet disappeared quickly.

The Red Hook Wharf is ten miles long and several hundred meters wide. The waters of the wharf are surrounded on three sides by a tall city wall that extends out, roughly like a huge hook. The color of the city wall is reddish, hence the name. All berths and ships are protected in this big hook.

There are several wide passages under the city walls, which are usually open for cars and pedestrians to enter the city.

"Where are we going?" Filaya looked around excitedly.

Harmon glanced at Karody.

The two brothers and sisters came to Gotham for long-term knowledge, to see if there was a chance to make teammates, and to hunt the undead all the time. Carodi claimed to be the same.

"Let's take a walk around the city," Harmon said.

"it is good."

Kalodi did not object, the three walked through the city wall passage, and suddenly, a unique, prosperous and brand-new beautiful city rushed towards them.

Observing the city from a distant boat is a completely different experience than being in it.

The wide streets are flat and clean, with no bumps or potholes to be found. Cars, carriages and pedestrians each have their own roads, and there is no chaos at all. At every intersection, there is a tall signal light in three colors of red, green and yellow, and everyone and vehicles must pass according to the instructions.

Kalodi looked at it for a few moments and quickly understood.

Stop when the light is red, and move forward when the light is green. The yellow light seems to be a warning.

No matter where you go, there are lush trees on both sides of the road, like a forest, and there are flower beds under the trees, which not only serve as a road isolation belt, but also look pleasing to the eye.

There are signs on every road, every block.

There are trash cans and street lamps not far from the roadside, and these street lamps are all crystal lamps that consume magical energy.

Harmon is more knowledgeable, and the more he looks, the more shocked he is.

The maintenance of these infrastructures requires a lot of manpower, and the cost is definitely a huge number. If the whole city is like this, it is definitely not enough to not have millions of gold shields a year.

With such a huge investment, the first impression of Gotham City is clean!

I didn't smell a single odor along the way, and occasionally I saw garbage, and soon there were people in work uniforms cleaning it up with tools.

The second impression is the speed!

The cars on the road are moving very fast, and the pedestrians are also in a hurry, but in an orderly manner.

The whole city is running at high speed, and everyone is involved in it, playing their part, but not as numb as the bottom people in the imperial city, they are ruddy, refreshed, and full of vitality.

Walking out of the port area to the trade area, the building in front of me suddenly became a little taller.

"so far!"

Filaya looked at the wizard tower in the center of the city in the distance, and couldn't help sighing.

"It's nothing urgent anyway, let's watch as we walk." Harmon said with a smile, he was already fascinated by the city and wanted to see more novel things.

Kalodi also agrees.

The three of them were about to continue walking when a green-painted car was parked on the side of the road. The driver rolled down the window. It turned out to be a dwarf. He asked politely in imperial language, "Guests, do you need a taxi?"

"taxi?"

They were both hearing the word for the first time.

Only then did I find that there are quite a few of these cars on the road. They have exactly the same style, and their appearance is painted green. The signs on the roof and the sides of the car are all written in Imperial, Elvish and Dwarven languages. "Taxi" Words are very conspicuous.

The dwarf driver smiled, obviously often encountering guests who came to Gotham City for the first time, and explained enthusiastically: "The guests only need to pay, and I will send you to the place you want to go in the city, this is a taxi."

The three immediately understood that this was the imperial bus, but a private version.

Even something as expensive as a car can still operate.

Rafia was very interested and asked, "How do you count the money by car?"

"The starting price is ten copper lisos, and after three miles, it is three copper lisos per mile." The dwarf driver pointed to a mechanical device placed on the car, and motioned to use it to calculate the price.

This price is quite expensive for the civilians of the Empire, and few people are willing to ride.

But it is very affordable for the extraordinary.

Carodi opened the door without hesitation and sat up. The Harmon brothers and sisters sat in the back row and found a seat cushion under the dwarf driver's buttocks. He raised himself up and could see the road ahead. He asked, "Guests are going where?"

"Let's take us around the city." Carodi thought for a while and said, "Then recommend us a good hotel, not too expensive, preferably in the inner city, closer to the magic area."

"okay!"

The dwarf driver responded happily, pressed the meter in front of him, and the car moved.

The three of Carodi noticed that the green light from the meter turned red, which should mean that there were guests in the car.

"Are the guests coming to Gotham for the first time?" The dwarf asked casually while driving skillfully.

"Yes……"

Carodi, who was sitting in the co-pilot, was a little nervous. He found that the car was going too fast, overtaking other cars and leaving them behind. In less than a minute, he passed the car on the road several times, and collided with the slightest mistake.

If there is a car accident at such a fast speed, even if you are an extraordinary person, you are likely to die.

Kalodi said quickly: "Please drive slower."

"Don't worry, I'm an old driver, and I've never had an accident while driving for more than two years." The dwarf raised his hand nonchalantly, and adjusted his sitting position by the way.

Having said that, the three of Karodi are still worried.

"We want to see the scenery of Gotham, you can't see clearly when you drive so fast." Filaya said very unhappily.

The dwarf glanced at the girl in the rearview mirror, and had no choice but to slow down and asked, "Guests, let's go around the trade area for a few laps?"

"Okay." Karody nodded.

The dwarf lowered the car window so that the three of them could see the outside scene more clearly, and said cheerfully: "The most worth seeing place in Gotham City, besides the magic zone, is the trade zone. The magic zone cannot be entered by ordinary people. The urban area is too crowded, and only the trade area has gathered a large number of extraordinary people. In the past two years, merchants from all over the world have settled in the trade area, and the city lord has also built several ultra-high office buildings, which are almost as high as the wizard's tower. People, only rent to those companies and businessmen. It is said that a room the size of a bedroom costs a gold shield every month, tsk tsk tsk…”

While speaking, the car drove into the trade area.

Sure enough, as the dwarf driver said, the three of Carodi soon saw the towering skyscrapers, and when they looked closely, they could better appreciate the size of these buildings.

When the car passed downstairs, they sat in the car and had to stick their heads out to see the whole building and feel their insignificance.

The traffic in this area is very dense and there are many pedestrians.

Humans, elves, dwarves, orcs and some rare intelligent races, everyone is either well-dressed or extraordinary, they go in and out of the building, and their temperament and demeanor are completely different from ordinary people. It seems that people who can come to this place are faintly superior to others and enter the upper class.

The three of them are all extraordinary people, and they feel a little lack of confidence in their hearts.

This kind of feeling is like the first time a countryman enters the city. It is very novel at first, but the more I watch it, the more guilty I feel, and I feel that I don't belong here.

The car fell silent.

The dwarf driver sensed the emotions of the three and said with a smile: "Actually, we Gotham people don't like to go to the trade area. It's too high-end here, everything is expensive, and there are often conflicts and battles. It's more dangerous, and the inner city is safer. Some."

Filaya asked curiously, "There will still be battles in the trade zone?"

"Of course there is!"

The dwarf driver scratched his beard and said with disdain: "Those superhumans come from all over the world, everyone has them, all of them have eyes on the top of their heads, and they don't follow the rules in order to make money. Fighting, thinking Gotham City is a place where you can run wild like other cities, hehe..."

"The result?" Carody asked.

"Of course they were all stunned by the Knights of the Holy Lance. Those with lesser charges were locked up, and the time was up to expel them; those with serious charges were killed on the spot, and if they dared to use force in Gotham City, none of them would end well." The dwarf driver's face Full of pride.

"They don't even look at who owns Gotham City?"

"In Gotham City, the Lord of the City is the only master, who dares to disobey?" The dwarf snorted, "The trade area is only a little chaotic now, and the safety is still guaranteed, you don't have to worry."

Filaya's eyes lit up and sighed: "Speaker Ren is so amazing!"

"That's not it!" The dwarf driver patted his thigh and said very proudly: "I have also met the Lord of the City, not once, but three times!"

When it comes to the city lord, the dwarves are like opening a chatterbox.

As he drove, he froze. From the time he had seen the Lord of the City talk about the battle more than two years ago, and the time when the Death Lord was scared off in Gotham City, he was so excited, as if he had seen it with his own eyes. In general, as well as various Gotham City novelties, future plans, Legion secrets, and more.

There was nothing he didn't know about Gotham City, and the three of Carodi listened with relish.

The taxi unknowingly made a few laps in the trading area. The mileage on the meter kept beating. It didn't stop in front of a luxury hotel in the inner city until more than an hour later. The dwarf driver reluctantly dropped them off. .

Karodi paid twenty silver kronor for the fare without frowning.

Harmon looked at the ten-story hotel in front of him. The door was covered with a red carpet. The reception lobby inside was magnificent, which was several grades higher than the hotels they usually stayed in.

"Will it be too expensive to live here?" Harmon hesitated.

Filaya was also a little uncomfortable.

"It's okay, we're only staying for a few days, I'll pay." Carodi waved very vigorously and took the lead into the hotel.

Harmon and his sister looked at each other, a little puzzled in their hearts.

Why did Calody take a boat to Gotham City when he was so rich, instead of teleporting directly from the Empire?

The waiter at the hotel greeted him enthusiastically. Carlodi directly booked the most expensive top floor suite and took the elevator to the top floor. The luxurious suite opened the eyes of both brothers and sisters. There is also a wide balcony outside the suite, with a wide view, facing the high ground in the city, and you can see the city lord fortress and the wizard tower above.

The three ate a sumptuous lunch on the balcony, served by a waiter.

Harmon was taken aback when he saw the price of this meal, even if he was a third-level warlock with far more strength and knowledge than ordinary people.

However, Carodi was not in a good mood.

When he was eating, he frequently looked at the tower, as if he had no appetite and didn't eat much.

"Calodi, you..." Harmon hesitated.

I and my sister met Carodi in Albert Bay. This handsome young man of only 19 years old obviously left the house for the first time and had a conflict with others. He and his sister helped him out of the siege. We have to come to Gotham City, so we go together.

Carlody is a secondary gunman and has nothing special to offer along the way.

His younger sister Filaya got along very well with him. The two were of the same age, only one year apart, and they had a vague impression of each other during their contact on the boat.

Harmon has no objection to this. He can see that Carodi has a decent personality, is worth making friends, and is a devout follower of the goddess of magic like himself.

But when it came to Gotham City, Carodie seemed to be different.

He has something on his mind!

It's not that what he said was just to come to Gotham City to have a look, to gain more insight, he must have more important things, and his identity is not ordinary, but this is his privacy, and Harmon can't rashly ask.

In fact, Filaya saw it too.

She ignored her brother's wink and asked directly, "Kalodi, are you an imperial noble?"

"That's it." Carodi didn't know how to answer, "But..." Before he could finish speaking, someone knocked on the door of the suite, and the voice of the hotel waiter came in: "Dear gentleman, you have a guest to visit. ." The waiter's words trembled a little~www.wuxiaspot.com~ What kind of guests? ' Kalodi asked.

Harmon became alert, and he sensed that there were several people outside the door, all of them powerful transcendents.

The waiter outside the door didn't respond.

A few seconds later, a warm and melodious female voice said, "Sir Calody, my lord invites you to meet at the Highland Fortress."

The door to the room opened automatically.

The three of Kalodi clearly saw the people outside the door. A stunning beauty stood there. Behind her, surrounded by four extraordinary beings in silver armor, their breath was as blazing as the sun, and The hotel waiter stepped back in fright, his face pale and his whole body trembling.

Both Harmon and Filaya almost jumped up, they recognized the identities of these extraordinary people.

These four are Paladins!
