Chapter 579 - 579 Azure Dragon City! (2)
579 Azure Dragon City! (2)
If he failed this mission, there was only one ending waiting for him…
…
On the other side.
Lin Bei, Ji Xuanyuan, and Mengli had already arrived outside Azure Dragon City.
The three of them stopped in midair and looked in the direction of Azure Dragon City…
Although they were still a distance away from Azure Dragon City, the Azure Dragon City that reflected in their eyes shocked them.
What greeted their eyes was a huge city that stretched as far as the eye could see.
The towering city wall stood between heaven and earth. Even though it was still very far away, it gave off a feeling that it covered the sky.
The last time Lin Bei saw such height was when he saw the huge body of the Firmament Beast.
The walls of Azure Dragon City made him feel that they were much taller than the Firmament Beast’s body. He could not even see the end.
The three of them were stunned when they faced the majestic Azure Dragon City.
Just one city was more than 10,000 times larger than the entire Ocean Blue Planet.
“I was too short-sighted…” Ji Xuanyuan’s eyes widened as he said in a daze.
“Isn’t this a little too unbelievable? We’re still a distance away.” The usually calm Mengli could not help but open her mouth wide.
“This scale is indeed worthy of being the core area of the Azure Dragon Domain… It’s indeed powerful.” Lin Bei looked at the Azure Dragon City in front of him and understood why the Ocean Blue Planet was only a mystic realm…
“Continue! Our target is Azure Dragon City!”
Soon.
Lin Bei and the others arrived outside the gate of Azure Dragon City.
There was a group of people in uniforms guarding the city gate. The people who came to the city lined up and entered Azure Dragon City in an orderly manner.
After Lin Bei asked around, these guards were from the city defense forces of Azure Dragon City. Moreover, one needed a pass to enter Azure Dragon City.
“Azure Dragon City is really heavily guarded. The power of this barrier is really strong.” Lin Bei sighed.
“This is the core area of the Azure Dragon Domain, not everyone can enter just because they want to. Of course, it has to be strict,” said Mengli.
This was all formality. After all, Jin Jia had escaped despite being so strict.
Lin Bei complained in his heart.
Just as they were about in the middle of the line, two people in uniforms walked towards the three of them.
“Do you have a pass?”
“No.”
“Names, where did you come from? Why did you come to Azure Dragon City?”
One of them interrogated the three of them about their intentions. The other person held an electronic device and poked it. He should be doing records.
“Lin Bei.”
“Mengli.”
“Ji Xuanyuan.”
“We’re here to see your Azure Dragon City’s Mayor…”
Hearing Lin Bei’s words, the man in uniform looked shocked and puzzled.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Ji Xuanyuan pulled Lin Bei behind him before he could finish speaking.
“We’re businessmen from the Azure Alliance. We want to come to Azure Dragon City to see if there are any business opportunities,” Ji Xuanyuan said with a grin.
“What did that little brother say just now?”
“Mayor is just a term for good-looking things. That’s what we say over there.”
“Is what they say true?” the man asked the other man.
“Their names and appearances match. They’re from the Azure Alliance. The three of them are all nine-star Saint Realm experts.”
“Hmm… Their strength is extraordinary. Give them the pass.”
The man nodded and spoke to the other man.
“Alright.”
The man with the electronic equipment nodded. Three passes were printed out from the machine and handed to the three of them.
Lin Bei took the pass and looked at it.
It was a small gray card with the words Temporary Pass written on the front. On the back were their names, photos, and their purpose.
“Businessmen? Brother Ji, you’re really something,” Lin Bei whispered to Ji Xuanyuan.
“If you say that we’re here to see the elder of the Azure Dragon Country, do you think he’ll treat you as a lunatic and throw you out of the line?”
“Indeed, the elders have a very high status. Their guests definitely won’t line up to enter the city here. We don’t have any proof, so it’s better to act according to the situation.”
Mengli also said softly.
Lin Bei did not say anything and nodded. He thought to himself, As expected of someone who has lived for tens of thousands of years. He’s tactful!
“But this is a pass that can only be used in the outer city.” Mengli held the pass and saw a line of small words on it.
Area of Activity: Outer City
“I saw it too. Let’s go in first and make other plans,” Ji Xuanyuan said.
Lin Bei did not care too much about this restriction. As long as he passed the city wall, other problems would not be a problem!
Soon.
The three of them arrived at the front of the team.
A ray of light enveloped the three of them and blocked the barrier power of Azure Dragon City. Lin Bei and the others crossed the huge threshold of the city gate and successfully arrived in Azure Dragon City.
They entered the city.
Facing the city gate was a wide street.
Although it was getting late, the entire street was still bustling with people. The street lights had also been lit up, and it was a bustling scene.
The streets here were much wider than the streets of the Harmonious Development Group.
Most of the buildings on this street were antique. Moreover, they were all hung with fiery red lanterns. It was very festive.
“It’s so lively here.” Lin Bei sighed when he saw the scene in front of him.
“That’s right. I don’t remember how long it has been since I’ve seen such a prosperous scene…”
Mengli echoed.
It had been too long since they traveled from the Azure Alliance to Mars and then to Lin Bei’s pocket space.
The scene in front of him made him feel very peaceful and comfortable.
“Let’s go take a walk on this street first.”
Lin Bei put his arm around their shoulders and walked deeper into the street.
On both sides of the street, there were all kinds of shops, restaurants, clothing stores, and department stores.
Other than that, there were also some vendors pushing small carts to sell stuff.
It was somewhat similar to the street market of the Harmony Development Group, but through the Eye of Stars, Lin Bei could tell that everything sold here was very ordinary. There were no divine artifacts, no special effects, and no spiritual energy.
They were all food and necessities for ordinary people.
This made Lin Bei feel like he had returned to the Ocean Blue Planet before his rebirth.
When he was young, his parents often brought him and his sister to the pedestrian zone to buy things. He and his sister would often fall asleep from exhaustion and be carried home by their parents.
All of this felt like a lifetime to Lin Bei now…
Mengli and Ji Xuanyuan were also dazzled.
At this moment.
A young girl blocked the way of Lin Bei and the others.
“Guys, do you need a guide?”
Lin Bei came back to his senses and looked at the girl in front of him.
The girl was wearing plain linen clothes and her hair was tied into a bun. There was no makeup on her clean face. Her eyes were clear and her smile was bright.
“I’ve been observing you for a while. You look very unfamiliar. Is this your first time in Azure Dragon City?”
The girl spoke again.
“Yes, this is our first time here.” Lin Bei nodded.
“Looks like my judgment was right. My name is Chai Xiaoping. Everyone calls me Azure Dragon Living Map ~”
“Haha, this title is really extraordinary.”
When Lin Bei heard Chai Xiaoping’s self-introduction, he couldn’t help but laugh.
“Do you need a guide? It’s because of fate that we’ve met. We’ll give you the most discounted price! It’s only 100 Azure Dragon Coins~”
Chai Xiaoping continued.
“We’re new here. It’s indeed not bad to have a guide,” Ji Xuanyuan said and looked at Lin Bei.
“I’m Lin Bei, this is Mengli, and this is Ji Xuanyuan. Then you can be our guide!”
“Really? That’s great!” The girl was excited.
“Just call me Xiaoping. Everyone calls me that.”
“Didn’t I call you Azure Dragon City’s living map?” Lin Bei teased.
“Ah?” Chai Xiaoping was speechless.
“Hahaha…” Mengli and Ji Xuanyuan at the side saw the young girl’s appearance and burst into laughter. Lin Bei was indeed Lin Bei. He really would not stop until his words shocked everyone.
“This is 1,000 Azure Dragon Coins. Please bring us to understand Azure Dragon City in the next few days.” Lin Bei waved his hand and took out 1,000 Azure Dragon Coins to hand to Chai Xiaoping.
“Boss Lin, you’re a generous person! I, Chai Xiaoping, will definitely go through fire and water for you!” Chai Xiaoping looked at the Azure Dragon Coins in her hand, her eyes shining.
After Chai Xiaoping’s introduction, Lin Bei and the others understood that the area they were in now was only the slums of Azure Dragon City.
Because this place was directly opposite the city gate, many poor people would do small businesses here.
Although this place was lively, it was far inferior to the prosperity of the wealthy district.
Lin Bei understood, but even in the slums, compared to Earth, the place was already prosperous enough…
