Magus Tech (Technological Wizard)

Chapter 500: A City of Thousands of People

Florence.

Florence is obviously not the largest and largest city in the world. The biggest is just an exaggerated statement by the villagers of Arubak Village. But I have to admit that even if Florentia is not the largest city in the world, it is still an extremely prosperous and huge city on the entire east coast, ranking among the top five cities on the entire east coast.

The reason for this is that it is necessary to talk about Florent and the surrounding situation.

Florence is located in the middle of the Moore Plain, and the largest river on the entire east coast, the Moore River, passes just outside the city. The abundant water flow of the river brings extremely developed traffic, which makes Florence more attractive to businessmen from all directions than some coastal ports, thus making Florence the most famous city in the Moorish Union.

But Florence is not the capital of the Moore Union.

This is because the Moorish Alliance is different from the government of ordinary countries. It is a loose city-state union, similar to the Greek Federation in the history of the earth-every city in the territory belongs to the same system in name, and is subject to external attacks. When the time comes, we will unite and resist together. In normal times, there is a high degree of autonomy and no jurisdiction over each other. Whether the development is good or bad depends on one's own ability.

This kind of regime cannot be said to be bad, but it obviously has a huge disadvantage in the face of many surrounding countries ruled by feudalism. After all, without a strong ruling core, even if they can unite when they are invaded, it will be difficult to win.

This kind of government has been maintained and has not perished under the attacks of neighboring countries because many wizard forces continue to fight and temporarily reach a peaceful result. In other words, it was facilitated by wizard forces.

Hundreds of large and small cities in the Moore Alliance are distributed in a long and narrow strip of territory along the Moore River. Around it, there are four wizard forces that are no less than the White Stone Tower: White Mist City in the northwest, White Mist City in the northeast, Rose City, Deep Blue Castle in the southeast and Tree Mushroom Forest in the southwest.

In addition, White Mist City has a good relationship with the wizarding force in the farther north - Rotten Swamp, Rose City has a good relationship with the wizarding force in the north - Black Castle, and the Jungle Cabin has a good relationship with another wizarding force near it - Tree The Mushroom Forest comes from the same source, and Deep Blue Castle is extremely strong, and has recently communicated frequently with Death Valley in the south.

It can be said that the Moore Alliance and Florent are the places where eight wizarding forces converge, and they are the center of the wizarding forces on the east coast.

Every wizarding force has thought about it, wanting to take Florent and the entire Moore Union into their pockets, but without exception, they are strongly targeted by the rest of the wizarding forces, and finally reached a weird balance-every wizarding force No longer be tempted by Florent, but as a place where you can communicate with the rest of the wizarding forces.

People with various purposes gather here. Ordinary people who do nothing, traders who dream of getting rich, adventurers who yearn for excitement, young people who pursue great power,

Insidious and cunning villains, hypocritical nobles, living together with wizard apprentices and wizards, formed a unique Florence.

It took Richard three days to get here after leaving Arubak Village.

Florence, outside the city.

Li Cha stood, staring at the huge city in front of him.

From the defense alone, one can see the grandeur of Florence.

The walls of Florence are all made of large bluestones, and the bluestones are bonded with clay and lime, without any gaps, and they look natural. In order to ensure its firmness, the entire city wall is thick at the bottom and narrow at the top, in a trapezoidal shape. The narrowest part of the top is nearly five meters thick, making it extremely difficult to damage.

The normal one-ring spell smashed down with all its strength, and it was impossible to penetrate the city wall at all. Ordinary troops wanted to use trebuchets to break through the gap, and it was like going to the sky.

The entire city wall is like a man-made moat, with a height of nearly fifteen meters, blocking most people. Except for formal wizards who can leap, the rest, including wizard apprentices, must either walk through the city gate obediently, or find another way .

In addition, there are a large number of patrolling soldiers on the city walls and gates, well-equipped, equipped with longbows and machine crossbows with extremely long range, and some elite archers even have mana fluctuations on their arrows, which are specially used to deal with difficult The target is a cheap magic item. Maybe it's impossible to fight against official wizards, but some thieves gang leaders dare to be brave and teach them how to behave every minute.

Li Cha didn't want to look for trouble, followed the flow of people, passed the city gate guarded by soldiers, and entered the city of Florence.

It can be seen that because the city of Florence is built on a plain, there are no winding roads like Baishi City—here, the roads go straight.

There are three or six broad main roads horizontally and vertically, dividing the whole city into sixteen standard areas, and each standard area is divided into different places by itself. There are not only trading streets with dense shops, but also quiet residential streets. sequence.

Walking on the road, Li Cha found that all kinds of bakeries are the most common here.

This is understandable, after all, according to estimates, the population of Florence may be hundreds of thousands, or even close to a million. So many people are like a gluttonous beast, consuming a lot of food every day.

In addition to the bakery, there are various public facilities such as public bathrooms, theaters, arenas, statues, squares, pools-because of the huge size of Florence, any kind of thing, in order to meet the needs of most people, is here. Amazing amount.

Benefiting from this, everyone in Florence saw a good standard of living. Even the beggars who begged were not weak like other places. Instead, they looked clean and walked with wind.

Seeing a person in gorgeous clothes, the beggar quickly stopped him, begging skillfully: "Sir, Your Excellency, you are so pitiful, give me a few coins and a piece of bread.

You are a good man sir, thank you for your coppers. But... can you give me some more, I saw that you still have copper coins in your wallet, so just treat it as some minced meat for me to eat. Also, I am so thirsty that I can't stand it, and I really want to drink a bowl of soup.

Thank you very much, you are a great person. However, after eating and drinking, it will be dark, and I am homeless, so give me some money and let me find a place to spend the night. But my clothes are so torn, the hotel will definitely not let me in, or you will continue to show kindness and let me buy another dress... Hey, sir, don't go, don't go..."

Li Cha watched the beggars begging loudly on the side of the road, with a funny face, shook his head and walked on. He was dressed in pitch black, without any gorgeous decorations, and he didn't look like a rich man, but he was not entangled, so he walked through the small half of Florence smoothly, and he already had a general impression of the city in his heart.

In front of a fountain in a square, Li Cha stopped slowly and murmured, "Florent... tsk, Florent!" ( )
