Chapter 258: City of Eternal Daylight

Ji Xinghuo stood on a hillside, in the refraction, looking at a highland tribe built between the mountains in front of him.

"I'm late again!"

He scratched the thick beard on his chin, and his tired face was full of helplessness.

Three days ago, the microphone received a message from Chief Hanqiu, saying that a war broke out between two highland tribes. He traveled day and night and rushed here as fast as possible, but when he arrived, he found that the war had been fought.

Moreover, this is the second time.

The last time was ten days ago. When Ji Xinghuo arrived, he only saw the victorious side cleaning up the battlefield and burning the enemy's bodies.

Failure to catch up with the war twice in a row made him realize a problem.

The bloody plateau is too big.

Information transmission is also slow. Even if Chief Hanqiu sent the message as soon as possible, it was actually delayed for many days before Chief Hanqiu received the news.

Wars are frequent on the plateau, every day, but most of them are not particularly large-scale.

Like the last war between the Blood Rage Tribe and the Skull Crusher Tribe, because the war was large-scale, both sides needed to mobilize and prepare, and they also had to hire foreign tribes, so there was enough time to transmit information, and they were able to arrive at the battlefield in time to obtain spiritual energy.

The Blood Rage Tribe’s war was a rare war in several years.

The smaller the scale of the war, the faster it breaks out and the faster it ends. Sometimes, when the news reaches Tianzhui Cliff, the battle is actually over.

Ji Xinghuo summarized two reasons.

One is that the message is transmitted too slowly, which he cannot solve.

The second is that his speed is too slow.

The former is the main reason.

For the latter, even if Qinghong goes at full speed at all costs, and waits for it to shrink and rest on his body when it is tired, and he takes over the running, he may not be able to arrive in time.

"There is no solution."

"My flying speed is not as fast as Qinghong running on the ground. The consumption is too great, and the star power cannot sustain long-term flight."

"Unless the place where the war takes place is not far away, no more than one thousand kilometers."

Ji Xinghuo thought about it and there was no way.

In the past ten days, he had been running on the road almost all the time, running back and forth for tens of thousands of kilometers, which made himself and Qinghong very tired.

Not only did he not obtain spiritual energy, but he also delayed the search for the storm beast.

"Take a day off."

Ji Xinghuo turned away from the tribe of the highlanders and found a place to camp. In the tent, after eating and drinking, listening to the whistling cold wind outside, Ji Xinghuo took out the bloody plateau map he bought on Earth, and after comparing, he found his current approximate location.

"It's northwest of Tianzhui Cliff, about 7,000 kilometers away."

"I actually ran so far!"

Ji Xinghuo was surprised.

His eyes fell on a city sign on the map, to his west.

This sign is very eye-catching, different from other cities, about a little north of the center of the bloody plateau, only more than 600 kilometers away from him.

Turning to the back of the map, he found its introduction.

"The City of Eternal Day."

Ji Xinghuo's eyes lit up, and he immediately remembered that he had read the information of this city on the Internet many times before he became an alien.

The City of Eternal Day is a city built by an alien race, and there is a star gate in the city.

Its status is similar to that of Olympia.

There are eight star gate cities like this in Qianfengyuanlin, and more than 20 on the Bloody Plateau.

Since leaving Tianzhui Cliff, Ji Xinghuo has also passed through two or three star gate cities, but just like the earthlings do not allow foreigners to enter Olympia, each star gate city is heavily guarded and strictly prohibits any foreigner from approaching, completely exclusive.

In the star realm, it is very dangerous to rashly approach the star gate of foreign races.

Ji Xinghuo always avoids it from a distance.

However, the City of Eternal Day is a unique star gate city, which is open to all races and welcomes any foreigner to enter.

The founder of the City of Eternal Day is the "Jingying Clan".

This alien race is very unique and very strange among many alien races. They are very rare silicon-based life.

Strictly speaking, the Jingying Clan is a non-carbon-based life.

Compared to humans, the life span of the Jingying people is almost infinite. According to the Earth calendar, their history is as long as a million years, and they have entered the star realm for more than 70,000 years!

Even if we look at the entire True Dragon Star Region and the Orion Arm, the Jingying people are one of the oldest races and can be called living fossils of civilization.

Naturally, the Jingying people are very powerful.

This is also the reason and confidence for them to dare to open up the city of eternal daylight to foreign races.

On the Bloody Plateau, there are two largest cities, one is the Luyan tribe in the Red Emperor Blood Mountain in the southwest, and the other is the city of eternal daylight in the middle of the plateau. The Luyan tribe is the nominal leader of the highlanders, and the Jingying people are the protectors of more than 20 alien races on the plateau.

"Since we are here."

"It's not far away anyway, let's go to the city of eternal daylight for a walk and open our eyes."

Ji Xinghuo is very interested in the Jingying people.

Among the many known star realm alien races and alien races on Earth, the Jingying people are the most talked about and mysterious besides the True Dragons and Winged People.

This is silicon-based life, which existed only in science fiction before the star gate was opened!

After a night's rest.

The next day, Ji Xinghuo's physical strength and star power were restored, and Qinghong was also in high spirits, carrying him to the west.

The altitude of the central part of the Bloody Plateau is higher than that of the east. The mountains are more precipitous and continuous, and the terrain is extremely undulating. Sometimes a section of the road has to go up and down for a long distance. In order to save time, Ji Xinghuo often takes Qinghong with him and flies directly there.

Even so, he approached the City of Eternal Day near dusk.

It was the "Frost Month", the penultimate month of the cold season. The night time exceeded twenty hours every night, and the weather was colder.

The City of Eternal Day was built on a relatively flat plateau with a vast area of ​​millions of square kilometers. There were not many mountains and they were not high. The view was very wide, which was rare on the Bloody Plateau. Many rivers flowed down from the surrounding mountains and formed glaciers, like silver snakes dancing on the ground.

Ji Xinghuo stepped onto this plateau and looked at the terrain that was like undulating waves.

He felt a little regretful.

If it was the hot season, it would definitely be an endless green grassland with magnificent scenery and a very pleasant climate. But now it is the cold season, and all you can see is a vast expanse of white snow, and the cold wind is raging in the sky. You can't find a place to take shelter from the wind.

After discovering other people through electromagnetic induction, Ji Xinghuo immediately put away Qinghong and walked forward in the wind and snow.

More than an hour later.

The golden sun fell from the horizon to the foot of the mountain, and the sky immediately darkened.

Ji Xinghuo could still see things at night and found a road extending to the west. The ground was paved with stone slabs, wide and flat, like a highway.

He looked ahead and saw a group of light in the distance in the dark night, with a very large range.

A straight beam of light shot into the sky.

Even in the cold wind and frost and snow, the beam of light can be seen clearly dozens of kilometers away, like a lighthouse in the dark, guiding travelers.

Ji Xinghuo continued to walk along the road for more than ten kilometers. Gradually, the range of the light in front became larger and brighter. With his eyesight, he could see that it was a huge city as bright as daylight, located on the earth, fascinating.

As the distance got closer, roads converged from all sides, and more and more pedestrians came.

Ji Xinghuo secretly looked at these alien races.

Highlanders, Biao, Dan, Savage, and Rangers, these are all common races on the Bloody Plateau, and there are many alien races.

Many of them are seen for the first time. Although most of them look similar to humans, they have different characteristics.

Ji Xinghuo can only recognize three or four kinds of aliens.

Like himself, they are all heading to the City of Eternal Day, but in the wild, everyone keeps a safe distance from each other.

Ahead, a huge outline appeared in the night. It was a translucent bubble with a diameter of about 30 kilometers, like a big bowl upside down on the ground, covering the entire city. The cold wind, frost, and snow were all isolated outside the bubble, and inside the bubble, it was a completely different world!

Ji Xinghuo was shocked after seeing it clearly.

The first feeling of this alien city was bright and magnificent!

There is a 100-meter-high wall on the outermost perimeter. The material of the wall is not common stone, but white crystal that looks like a whole. The bubble covering the entire city is inspired from the wall, as if it is its base, flowing with obscure light.

In the city, hundreds of meters high spires stand in a staggered and clear hierarchy.

The design style of these spires is completely different from the buildings on Earth. They are grand and gorgeous, with bright golden decorations on the edges.

All the buildings in the city, including the spires, are built with crystal.

In the sky, there are many platforms and squares suspended, and countless crystal lamps emitting bright light illuminate every corner.

Most of the city is flat, surrounding a mountain in the middle of the city, with a vertical height of about 3,000 meters, which is only short compared to other peaks on the bloody plateau. The surface of the entire mountain has been transformed. From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, it is divided into layers of platforms, connected by flat steps, and spires stand one after another, like a crystal forest, until the top of the highest mountain.

There is a crystal palace on the top of the mountain, from which a huge beam of light shoots out, penetrates the bubble, sinks into the night, and reaches an unknown height in the deep space.

"Too shocking!"

Ji Xinghuo couldn't help but sigh.

It is hard for people who have not been there in person to imagine that there is such a gorgeous and dazzling city in the world. If he must use a word to describe it, he immediately thought of "heaven".

"The City of Eternal Day is indeed worthy of its reputation." Ji Xinghuo slightly quickened his pace and approached the city. The city wall entered the range of electromagnetic induction.

He was stunned for a moment.

In his electromagnetic induction, there are many blind spots in the City of Eternal Day.

These areas are not blank, but the magnetic field form is full of interference, as if a large amount of garbage information is used to cover up the real situation, making it impossible to distinguish.

It is equivalent to shielding the magnetic field changes.

Although there are not many such blind spots, accounting for less than one-tenth.

But Ji Xinghuo was still very surprised.

This is the first time that his electromagnetic induction cannot get information. These areas, including the inside of the city wall, those magnificent crystal spires, and the interior space and underground of some buildings, are obviously the key places in the City of Eternal Day.

Near the range of the City of Eternal Day, light dispels the darkness.

There is a tall city gate under the city wall.

Ji Xinghuo walked towards the city gate. Standing close to it, it was even harder to feel the magnificence of the city gate. The huge transparent bubble in the sky should be a protective shield.

The cold wind, frost and snow blew on it, just like hitting the wall, and were all blocked.

He retracted his gaze and looked outside the city gate.

Although the magnetic field was shielded around the city wall where the city gate was located, the fluctuation of ether energy could not be concealed. In Ji Xinghuo's eyes, behind those white crystal walls, there was a huge amount of energy flowing. According to a certain law, it was obviously a man-made creation.

However, what attracted his attention most was the guards at the city gate.

"Jingying tribe!"

Although Ji Xinghuo had read about it in the information a long time ago, he was still very curious when he saw this alien race with his own eyes.

There were six guards in this team of Jingying tribe, and their appearances were very different.

Three of them were humanoid.

Their heights were very different, the shortest was about 1.7 meters, and the tallest was nearly 3 meters.

However, these three Jingying tribes had trunks and limbs like humans, standing on two legs, extremely broad and thick, with crystal skin, and their bodies seemed to be made of crystal. There was a layer of exquisite metal armor outside the body, but it was not "worn", but connected to their bodies, and the armor seemed to grow out.

They have heads but no necks.

The entire face is also in the form of crystal, with blurred facial features. If you don't look closely, you might think it's a blank face.

The three humanoid Crystal Yings have a huge difference, but compared to the other three Crystal Yings, at least they can still be seen as human.

Two of the other three look like big scorpions.

They have six legs supporting a strong torso, and their upper bodies stand upright like humans, with four upper limbs, the upper two are arms, holding weapons, and the lower two are giant claws. There is a thick crystal pointed tail behind them to balance the center of gravity of the body.

The last Crystal Ying looks like a ferocious beast, with four limbs on the ground, a huge mouth full of sharp teeth, and a thick metal armor growing on the crystal body, covering the whole body, and no weaknesses can be found.

Ji Xinghuo was amazed.

As expected, as the information said, the Crystal Yings have no specific form.

They are the same at birth, without gender, and can choose different forms according to their preferences during growth.

About half of the Crystal Yings chose human form.

In addition, the mainstream ones include scorpion, spider, snake and beast. There are many differences between each form.

Outside the mainstream, there are many strange-looking Jingying people.

Ji Xinghuo has a deep memory of a sentence, "There are no two identical Jingying people in the world."

These six Jingying people are all fifth-level legends!

They stood on both sides of the road at the city gate, motionless and without breathing.

Like six statues.

"It's too luxurious to use legendary strongmen to guard the city gate!" Ji Xinghuo shook his head secretly. There are more than a dozen city gates in the Everday City. If each city gate is guarded by six legendary guards, there will be hundreds of legendary Jingying people.

On Earth, this is unimaginable.

For the foreigners entering and leaving the city gate, the Jingying guards just watched and did not stop them.

The people in front entered the city smoothly.

Ji Xinghuo also walked towards the city gate in a swagger. Unexpectedly, a humanoid Jingying guard suddenly moved and looked at him.

"Please stop." The guard approached and said.

Ji Xinghuo stopped and looked stunned. He didn't understand why he was stopped when others could come and go freely.

I spent some time to make a detailed outline. There is only this chapter today.
