Chapter 3 First Coming to the Holy City

Flying over the sacred autonomous region, you can see some towns at first. It is also quite interesting to look at those buildings with different styles. However, after flying for most of the day, those buildings have long been tired of seeing Jingchen. After all, the architectural style of each region will not change much.

However, with the rapid flight speed of Jing Chen and others, there is not much to see the scenery along the way. Therefore, in the evening, when the group came to the holy city, Jing Chen suddenly felt that he was finally relieved. It was really a good thing not to face the unchanged scenery.

Compared with the top city in the mainland, such as Franco, this holy city is undoubtedly much smaller, not even one-fifth of the area of Franco. However, it has brought a lot of shock to Jingchen. First of all, this small holy city is definitely built according to the scale of the imperial capital on the continent, such as the flange city. The wall is 40 or 50 meters high, which looks extremely majestic from the outside.

Although the thickness of the wall is still not visible, it is not too bad. At least it needs to be more than ten meters. What's more, the stone that built the wall is actually a kind of stone with a faint white light. Although Jing Chen does not know what this kind of stone is, it does not prevent him from feeling the wall at all. The divine breath that came from the air.

Jing Chen was really surprised by the smell of divine energy on the wall. Although he has seen a lot of strange things over the years, he built the wall with stones with energy. If he hadn't seen this kind of thing with his own eyes, Jing Chen would probably think who was joking with him. After all, even if it was the lowest. The energy crystal is also extremely expensive and fragile, and it is impossible to build a wall.

It seemed that he saw his son's surprise. Jing Tian couldn't help smiling again and said, "Xiaochen, isn't the wall of this holy city majestic? When I first came to this holy city, I was more surprised than you, but this wall is not built of energy-containing materials. This is magic. I'm afraid that only the whole continent has such a large-scale magic array. The wall you see is actually this magic array.

"What?" Hearing Jing Tian's explanation, Jing Chen couldn't help but be stunned. He immediately felt the wall carefully. This careful perception didn't matter. Jing Chen's divine perception immediately found the difference in the wall. First of all, Jing Chen found that the wall was indeed built of energy-containing materials, as his father said. The most common granite, which is extremely hard, is made of this stone in most of the capitals and war fortresses on the mainland.

Secondly, what makes Jing Chen a little disbelief is that on the majestic wall, there are many very complex patterns covered with extremely fine wires, which are so complicated that they are beyond Jing Chen's imagination. So it seems that these wires are composed of the magic array in his father's mouth.

However, what Jing Chen doesn't understand most is where the magic source of these magic arrays comes from. You should know that even the energy crystals consumed once in the space transmission array is extremely expensive, so although it is convenient, only some big nobles and powerful people have money to use it, ordinary aristocrats , or ordinary four- and five-level strong people, even if they work hard for a few years, they may not be able to earn the cost of one transmission.

In this way, the energy consumption of the magic array above the wall must be extremely huge, and such a huge consumption, not to mention the Holy Autonomous Region, is probably the richest Jingge Alliance on the mainland, which is also unbearable.

"Dad, where does the energy consumed by this magic array come from?" Since he couldn't figure it out, Jing Chen asked his father Jingtian directly, which was more convenient. After all, even if this kind of thing was a secret at first, the holy city has existed for thousands of years. No matter how secret it is, I'm afraid it will be discovered, and such a large-scale energy supply, its land is absolutely not small. Even if the high officials of the Holy See want to hide, I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult.

"Are you talking about the solidified magic array on the wall? This does not need to consume energy at all. As long as no one destroys it, this energy can be permanently solidified on the wall. Even if it is artificially destroyed, it can be damaged. Jingtian said very casually, obviously, this is another well-known thing.

"Solidifying the magic array?" Jing Chen looked at the towering wall with some doubts. Although he still did not understand the principle of the wall, he knew his own affairs. After all, Jing Chen was not a magician and did not have any research on the magic array. He did not expect to understand what the "curing magic array" was.

The most strange thing is more than that. Jing Chen was surprised to find that the city is not like an ordinary city, but a quadrilateral, but a circle, that is to say, it has no edges and corners on all sides, exactly the same arc, and from those who patrolled on the wall. Jing Chen can clearly feel the bright energy. Obviously, these soldiers patrolling the city are not ordinary people.

Although he did not look down at the holy city from the air, Jingchen believes that this is definitely a sun-like building. Whether it is from the circular design or the slightly white light from the wall, it is very similar to the sun.

Entering the holy city gives people a feeling that it is very empty. There are not many pedestrians on the street. Compared with big cities such as Flange City and Yuelei City, there are fewer shops, and the shops operated in these stores are not the same as those in those cities. Most of the shops here are needed by combat professionals. And most of them have the fluctuation of strong or weak divine light energy.

Walking slowly on the street of the holy city, Jing Chen began to carefully observe the special place here. He found that the round holy city was built around a hill. On this hill, there is an extremely eye-catching building. The building has been built from the hillside to the top of the hill. Even if it is so far away, the appearance of the building can still be seen very clearly. Such a huge complex is much more magnificent than the palace of the French Empire.

The scale of this building group is not only extremely magnificent, but also the structure is also very special. It is completely a column structure and a dome. Moreover, under the sunlight, the outer walls of all buildings are dazzling golden yellow, which is dazzling for a long time.

You don't need to ask Jingchen to know that it is the core of the Holy See's power - the Holy Cathedral. Of course, not only the Pope lives there, but also a series of core institutions such as the Holy See's Presbyterian House, the Court and so on are also in that building complex. Of course, it is impossible for ordinary people to see these cores of power. Of.

Since entering the holy city, Jing Chen has had a very strange feeling in his heart. Everyone walking on the street gave Jing Chen a feeling of piety. After a little thought, Jing Chen understood the reason for this feeling of piety. Yes, it was the "power of faith". As a sect, the power that unites countless believers is nothing more than the power of faith. With this power, the Holy See can unite all believers. Without the power of this faith, the Holy See will never be so strong.

At this moment, Jing Chen's mind suddenly thought of a lot. For example, it seems that it can neither be used to attack nor to defend the power of faith. Although this force does not have any direct effect, it can only make these believers condense around the Holy See that the power of faith. The real power generated is much more powerful than ordinary magic or fighting spirit.
