Chapter 985: Eighty-one Rings
"General Yedmen, how long do we need to resupply here?" Locke asked the middle-aged man who walked towards him.
This Yedemen general is the commander of the light cavalry regiment, in Belen, the light cavalry regiment is mainly commanded by General [Fluorite] Selena, and this Yedemen general is also a fierce general who has just returned from the battle in the secret sand sea plane, and he has demigod-level strength himself.
"It will take three days, and the Crystal Battleship will need a more thorough recharge, after all, we still have half the voyage. General Yedmen said.
When they left the Belen Empire, the military department gave them an order to temporarily obey Locke's command, so Yedemon did not slack off at all because Locke's strength was inferior to his own, and in terms of military quality, the knights cultivated by Belen are worthy of praise.
Soon, the commander of the Heavy Cavalry Regiment Gus and the captain of the Dragon Knight Brigade William also flew to this deck, and a total of three demigod-level powerhouses stood in front of him, and Locke did not show any weakness because of this.
"If I could, I'd like to extend the resupply time to a week, and I just need to go out. Locke said that the purpose of his departure was naturally to go to Sky City to find Angelina and Ashar and other women.
"No problem, with the friendship of Belém and the Eastern Astrological Highlands, the port of Hilmens should allow us to stay for a week. And this is also your right to be a knight of the Rock, after leaving the Belen Empire, we must be under your command. Demigod-level dragon knight William said.
With the strongest dragon knight commander replying, the other two commanders of the light and heavy cavalry regiments did not have any disagreement, the soldiers took obedience to orders as their duty, and now Locke was the commander, and before completing the task given to them by the empire, they had to obey Locke's orders to the extent possible.
So the three battleships finally docked at the port of Hilmens, and as soon as these three big guys with magic crystal kinetic energy landed on the shore, they ushered in countless sights of the port of Hilmens.
Only a few large forces in the entire wizarding world can build a sailing ship to this level, and the dragon head flag fluttering on the ship's flagpole, as well as the powerful dragon knight who sometimes leaps into the air from the rear deck of the magic crystal ship, announce to all the intelligent beings in the port of Hilmens that this is a battleship from the Belém Empire.
The level of magic application in the Eastern Astrology Highlands is very high, and important hub cities such as the port of Hilmens are no exception, with a teleportation array that leads directly to the city in the sky, which is very convenient for celestial knights like Locke who need to go to find their families, but the cost of teleportation is astronomical.
If Locke hadn't made a fortune in the Dark City in the Davel region, the teleportation fee alone would have been enough for Locke to suffer for a long time.
"Are you going to Sky City? or are we together? I've admired Sky City for a long time. Nicholas stepped forward to join in the fun.
"Okay, as long as you can afford to teleport. Locke laughed.
Sure enough, Nicholas flinched when he saw the fee list marked on the location of the portal in the hinterland of Hilmens Port. No one wants to spend the sky-high price of five third-level energy essences just by taking a magic teleportation. Except for Locke, who is the big one.
"If you only have level 1, I can still put you in the Shura field, but it's a pity you're not. Locke joked that in addition to Christine and Rafite, he now pretended to be first-class magicians such as Joaquin and Vivien Leigh.
They have also longed for the grandeur and magnificence of the city in the sky for a long time.
The cost of the teleportation array is linked to the energy level of the creatures that enter the teleportation array, don't look at the sky-high price of five third-level energy essences that Locke needs a heavenly knight, in fact, most of the cost belongs to the cost price of the teleportation array, and the Eastern Astrology Heights only extracts a small part of the handling fee.
If a first- or second-level creature goes to Sky City through a teleportation array, the teleportation cost will be much lower.
As the five third-level energy essences were handed over to the astrologer stationed in front of the portal, a vigorous elemental halo flashed, and Locke, who had entered the portal, disappeared instantly.
When Locke walked through the portal's magical corridor and looked up at the sky again, he had arrived at Sky City.
Why Locke's first reaction was to look up at the sky, because Locke, who had just arrived in Sky City, understood the true meaning of Sky City, which is a city in the sky floating above the clouds!
Around Locke, there are many suspended cities, each of which represents a ring, and the city in the sky is rumored to have a total of ninety-nine eighty-one rings. It is also these eighty-one suspended cities that together constitute the sky city that is famous in the original plane and even in other planes.
The Nine Rings at the top of the clouds belong to the Eternal Saint Tower, which represents his wizard power, the Wisdom Tower, which represents his astrologer wisdom, and the Arcane Saint Tower, which represents his unparalleled arcane level and ability, are also in the Nine Rings.
Locke is now in the lower seventy-second ring, the city in the sky is a sacred place respected by magicians, and it is not exclusive to knights to visit, but knights can not go anywhere.
Knights below level 4 can only wander in the nine suspended cities between the 72nd and 81st rings, while knights above level 4 can enter beyond the 36th ring with their own strength and wisdom.
As for the higher ring number, the knights need to get the consent of Douglas, the owner of the Sky City, if they want to enter, after all, this is a paradise for magicians to pursue knowledge, not a place for knights to fight, if there are too many knights pouring in, it will also be a big burden for Sky City.
Unexpectedly, he could only enter the seventy-second ring at the highest, looking at the floating cities above his head, Locke knew that even if he flew up, the biggest possibility was that he would be shot down by the magic prohibition that came with Sky City.
As a knight who had just reached the third level, Locke did not have the slightest idea of challenging the majesty and rules of Sky City, and with the knightly medal on his shoulder, Locke could only hope that his women were not too far away from him.
"Angelina, where are you now?" quickly connected with Angelina's crystal ball, and Locke asked with a sigh of relief.
"Sister Leah, Grace, and Xia Qian and I are now in the seventy-first ring, Master Kayla went to the forty-ninth ring, and Master Ashar went to the thirty-seventh ring. Angelina's voice soon came from the knight's medal.
"I'm at the Seventy-Second Ring now, you can help me contact Kayla and Ashar, we should go back, the army that Uncle Jos asked me to borrow from Belém is now on standby at the harbor of Hilmens in the Eastern Astrological Heights. Locke said in a deep voice.
