Chapter 253
After staying overnight in the wild, the three continued to head towards Red Moon City the next morning.
Meiweier turned into a giant dragon, flapped her wings, and soared above the clouds in the sky.
After flying for more than three hours, the three finally arrived above Red Moon City.
The frequency of flapping her wings decreased, and Meiweier landed in a forest three kilometers away from Red Moon City, turning into a girl with two horns on her head.
Looking from a distance, the Red Moon City was in front of them, a main city built when the Red Moon Empire and the Black Sun Empire established diplomatic relations.
In order to facilitate trade, when the city was built, the two countries jointly invested and spent a lot of money to build a large-scale teleportation array in the city, which could allow goods to go directly from the Black Sun Empire to the Red Moon Empire.
As a trade hub city for the two human empires, the prosperity of Red Moon City is even greater than that of the main port city of Pease Port.
Caravans of all sizes enter and exit Red Moon City along the road.
In addition to the caravans, there are many travelers and adventurers traveling around.
Meiweier and Mina followed Cheng Yu on the left and right, entered Hongyue City, and headed straight for the central square of Hongyue City.
The closer you walk to the city center, the more people you will see.
The three of them walked to the end of the street, and there were a lot of magic circles engraved on the surface of the buildings near the central square of Hongyue City that condensed magic power.
Using a super long-distance teleportation magic once requires a huge amount of magic power.
Because of those magic circles, the magic power of the central square is extremely rich and hazy, like a layer of white mist floating on the square.
The central area of the square is built of a whole piece of giant bluestone, with an area estimated to be tens of thousands of square meters. The surface of the bluestone is engraved with a super-large space teleportation magic circle with a diameter of over 100 meters.
Cheng Yu had seen the teleportation array between the main cities of the Holy Kingdom, which was far smaller than this teleportation array.
"Friend, how can I get to the Red Moon Empire?"
Cheng Yu found the guards on the square and asked the guards.
The guard pointed to a small pavilion on the side of the square. There was a long queue in front of the pavilion. "Do you see that pavilion? Go to the pavilion and line up to pay. After paying, the magician will activate the magic circle and send you to the Red Moon Empire."
The operation process of using the teleportation array is similar to that of the main city of the Holy Kingdom.
Cheng Yu went to the pavilion to line up and pay.
Several guards were maintaining order in front of the pavilion. A beautiful elf woman was sitting in the pavilion. Her long golden hair showed that she was from the Light Elf Clan.
It was quite rare for elves to come to the Black Sun Empire to work.
Cheng Yu came to the window and said, "How much is it for the three of us to go to the Red Moon Empire?"
"Twenty gold coins per person, a total of sixty gold coins."
The light elf woman was busy filling out the documents.
Cheng Yu remembered that the price he bought Mina was ninety gold coins. Excluding the cost of the teleportation array, the slave trader didn't seem to make much money.
Of course, the slave trader gave Cheng Yu a friendly price and a discount.
He took out sixty gold coins and gave them to the light elf girl in exchange for three rune iron plates and three receipts.
The light elf girl reminded him again, "The teleportation array is only activated once a day in the morning, noon, and evening. Now it's close to noon, sir, you can wait for the noon batch."
"Okay."
It's still a while before noon, Cheng Yu took Mina and Meiweier to stroll around and eat something.
Two hours passed unknowingly.
Ding~ Ding~ Ding~
A quick bell sounded in the central square, which was a signal to start the teleportation array.
Many people walked towards the huge bluestone in the center of the square.
Cheng Yu and the other two also walked over and handed the three rune iron plates and three receipts they had just obtained to the staff next to them. The staff used magic to detect the authenticity of the rune iron plates.
Cheng Yu had a sense of déjà vu of checking tickets on an airplane.
After confirming that everything was correct, the staff let Cheng Yu and the other two enter the teleportation array.
There were already two or three hundred people standing in the teleportation array, including merchants, travelers, and mercenaries...
Each person was paid 20 gold coins. Activating the teleportation array once would easily earn thousands of gold coins.
Cheng Yu stood in the corner of the teleportation array, holding Meiweier with his left hand and Mina with his right hand, so that the crowd would not get separated.
When the time came, more than 30 magicians stood at the edge of the large teleportation array with a diameter of 100 meters at equal intervals, wearing black magic cloaks, holding magic wands, standing with solemn expressions, and began to chant the magic spells of the large teleportation array.
Cheng Yu had experienced the space teleportation array in the Holy Kingdom.
The space teleportation array in the Holy Kingdom can be activated by three magicians, but this large space teleportation array requires more than 30 magicians.
If the space teleportation array is compared to an engine, the engine power of this large teleportation array is obviously more powerful than that of an ordinary teleportation array.
The chanting of the magicians echoed over the square, and the magic array patterns on the ground and around the square all lit up with dazzling white light.
The magic power in the nearby space is attracted by the magic circle and surges in like a tide, filling theTo the teleportation array.
The white light emitted from the array pattern became more and more dazzling.
When the brightness of the white light reached its peak, with a whoosh, hundreds of people in the teleportation array disappeared instantly.
The teleportation process was like watching a slide show.
Scenes flew past Cheng Yu's eyes.
When this state stabilized, everyone had arrived in a new environment.
This is the Black Sun City of the Red Moon Empire, a city built for trade with the Black Sun Empire.
"It's much faster than taking a plane."
If there is a chance, Cheng Yu also wants to build a teleportation array on Bailu Island that goes directly to Pis Port.
In that case, trade between Bailu Island and Pis Port will be more convenient.
Follow the crowd out of the large teleportation array and come to the central square of Black Sun City.
This is the first time Cheng Yu has come to the Red Moon Empire. He looked at the buildings around the square with curiosity.
Compared with the Black Sun Empire, the city buildings here look old and mottled.
"The infrastructure of the Red Moon Empire is not very good."
This is Cheng Yu's first impression of the Red Moon Empire.
"I heard that the Red Moon Empire has been in civil war for many years, and the people's livelihood is declining."
The Silver Wolf Clan lives in the Silver Moon Forest south of the Red Moon Empire. Mina has heard the elders of the clan talk about some things about the Red Moon Empire.
"Civil war?"
Cheng Yu didn't know much about the Red Moon Empire.
Mina: "The Red Moon Empire does not have a fixed royal family. Every once in a while, a new royal regime comes to power."
In short, the emperor takes turns, and it will be my turn next year.
Hearing Mina's words, Cheng Yu nodded slightly. The Red Moon Empire is a bit like the state of warlord separatism in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It is a country with abundant martial virtues.
The three of them walked on the streets of Black Sun City. The houses on both sides of the street were dilapidated, the streets were dusty, there were drunkards drinking on the corners, prostitutes soliciting business at the door, and gangsters in groups of three or five.
Passing by a dark alley, a bloody arm suddenly flew out of the alley.
Not far away, gamblers who owed money and didn't pay it back were being beaten by casino thugs.
There is ferocity and evil hidden in everyone's eyes.
The Black Sun Empire believes in the Goddess of Light, most people are mentally normal, and the social atmosphere is relatively harmonious.
The Red Moon Empire is completely different from the Black Sun Empire. Just walking on the street, you can feel the "simple folk customs" here.
