Chapter 349 One-day tour of Crescent City
Shiris offered to take her for a tour of the city, and Lin Tianlang must have readily agreed. After all, after entering the city just now, he was taken directly to meet the Elf King without going anywhere. After the interview, he was taken to his residence and never came out. Lin Tianlang hasn't seen how big this Crescent City is and what its overall appearance is!
"Okay, let's set off now!" Lin Tianlang said with a grin. He threw his backpack directly on the bed, since he probably wouldn't need it next time.
"Yeah." Shirley also smiled lightly and nodded slightly.
After walking out of the room, closing the door, the two of them walked together under the tree. Seeing the two men walking by, the guards bowed their heads and saluted. Although Lin Tianlang was still a little uncomfortable with it, I had to say that it felt very satisfying to be treated like a distinguished guest.
"Where are we going now?" Lin Tianlang rubbed his palms and asked.
"Student Lin Tianlang, just come with me." Sherry said with a soft smile, as if she didn't intend to tell Lin Tianlang.
"Ha, so mysterious?" Lin Tianlang raised his eyebrows and said.
"Yeah. And it just so happens that after I finish introducing Crescent City to classmate Lin Sirius, we can go have dinner." Sherry continued.
"The elves' dinner? Tsk, I'm a little curious. Can you spoil it in advance?"
"If I don't tell you, classmate Lin Tianlang will know about it in the evening."
"You won't tell me again? Hiss... Shiris, are you imitating that guy Xu Weiwei? This kind of showy behavior is very similar to what she would do."
"..."
Ever since, Sherry started to take Lin Tianlang around the city. The two of them did not follow the same path they came from, but walked along another road. After leaving the royal residential area, the two returned to the ordinary residential area. Lin Sirius sighed once again, the urban layout of Crescent City was really amazing.
This is a city that is completely integrated with the forest. The entire city is built on the forest. Lin Tianlang had never seen such a city before. First of all, there would definitely be no such sight in the human world. Even in the magical world, Lin Tianlang believed that this scene should be unique.
The trees in Crescent Forest are all very tall and strong, and their vitality is extremely tenacious. It is precisely because of this that elves can build their own homes in trees.
And not only that, Crescent City is not only the home of elves, but also the home of many other small animals. There were countless birds of various colors, as well as squirrels and other small animals. Lin Sirius had already seen countless of them. If it weren't for the various suspension bridges that could be seen connecting the big trees, Lin Tianlang would have thought that this was just a forest, not a city at all.
"This is the main residential area and the main activity area for everyone..." Shirley walked beside Lin Tianlang, introducing him to Lin Tianlang as she walked.
"Classmate Lin Tianlang... do you want to go up and take a look?"
"Go up?" Lin Tianlang glanced at Sheris, then looked up at the ladders hanging in mid-air: "Which one are you pointing to?"
"Yeah." Sheris nodded: "Want to experience it?"
"Okay." Lin Tianlang replied. He was really curious about what the world in the tree would look like.
So, Shiris took Lin Sirius to the nearest staircase, and then the two of them walked along the stairs to the tree. After arriving in the tree, Lin Tianlang once again exclaimed.
It is completely different from what you see below. There is another world in the trees. The elves walked across the streets to each other, the wooden planks laid on the trees formed streets, and the suspension bridges connected all the trees together.
"Let's go to the other side." Sherry said, and then led Lin Sirius onto the suspension bridge.
"Oh, okay...ah!" Lin Tianlang thought it was nothing at first, so he walked to the suspension bridge casually. But as soon as he stepped on it, Lin Tianlang almost fell down. He screamed strangely, and then quickly grabbed the handrail of the suspension bridge.
Whether it was Sherry or the other elves, when they walked on the suspension bridge, Lin Sirius felt that they were no different from walking on flat ground, very stable. But when he walked up, the suspension bridge immediately began to shake violently. If he hadn't grabbed the rope in time, Lin Tianlang might have fallen.
Next to them, when the elves saw Lin Tianlang's appearance, they all cast curious glances.
Lin Tianlang knew that he would definitely become the center of discussion again, because his current appearance was indeed a bit funny.
"Are you okay, classmate Lin Tianlang?" Shiris came over quickly and asked.
"It's okay, it's okay, but how do you elves manage to walk so steadily? The suspension bridge doesn't even sway?" Lin Sirius smiled bitterly and asked.
He was now at the front of the suspension bridge, but even so, Lin Tianlang's feet were already completely hollow. Although Lin Tianlang was not afraid of heights, he still seemed to have some weakness in his legs as he was on the ground thirty or forty meters away.
"This is the innate ability of our elves." Sheris also smiled helplessly: "Sorry, classmate Lin Sirius, I forgot that you are not an elf."
"Are elves born with the ability to treat the suspension bridge as flat ground?" Lin Sirius pursed his lips and said.
"Then can Mr. Lin Sirius continue?" Shiris asked.
"Of course that's no problem. I'll just hold on to the rope and walk slowly." Lin Tianlang said, and then began to move forward slowly. But every time he moved, the suspension bridge would shake, which made Lin Tianlang somewhat panicked.
Shiris followed Lin Tianlang and walked slowly according to Lin Tianlang's speed. Soon, the path that others could walk in half a minute took Lin Tianlang five minutes to reach the opposite side. During this period, Lin Tianlang felt that he was always under the gaze of other people, which was really a bit social.
After wandering around the tree, the two returned to the tree, and then continued walking forward with Shirley leading them. After a while, the two came to the edge of the city. Lin Tianlang saw the city wall with patrolling guards on it.
"I want to know, what is the purpose of building the city wall?" Lin Tianlang asked.
"Resist the enemy?" Shirley tilted her head, feeling a little baffled by Lin Tianlang's question.
"Of course I know it's to defend against enemies. But... the trees in your Crescent Forest are so tall, higher than your city wall. If the enemy climbs the trees and then jumps directly into the city, wouldn't the city wall just become a decoration?" Lin Tianlang asked.
"Trees are the domain of our elves. The enemy will not try to challenge us on the trees." Sheris raised her nose slightly, feeling a little proud.
"Uh... this seems to be the case too." Lin Tianlang thought about it and found that it was indeed the case. The elves are the same in the trees as they are on the ground, so they can still exert 100% of their combat effectiveness in the trees. But if it is other alien races such as myself, we must first consider the issue of balance in the tree, so the combat capability will definitely be greatly reduced.
"Let's go that way." Sheris said, and then pulled the corner of Sirius' clothes.
"Oh." Lin Tianlang nodded, and then immediately followed Sherry's pace.
We came to a brand new area again, but the scene here was similar to before. It was also a tree world, and there were lively elven residents. But after taking a few steps forward, Lin Tianlang saw something different. An abrupt tower stands among the trees, which is very eye-catching.
The architectural style of this tower is very different from the previous elves' styles. It does not try to integrate with the forest, making it stand out.
"What is that?" Lin Tianlang pointed to the tower over there and asked Sherry next to him.
"That's the Holy Bell Tower." Sherrys replied softly: "It's a forbidden area, usually no one is allowed to enter. I don't know much about it, but I heard that there is a Holy Bell on the top of the Holy Bell Tower. , this is an artifact that awakens the forest. Once the Crescent City encounters a crisis, the holy bell will be sounded, calling on the power of the entire forest to help us overcome the crisis. "
"It sounds so awesome..." Lin Tianlang secretly sighed. Mobilizing the power of the entire forest sounded very powerful. Although Lin Tianlang could not imagine what that would be like for the time being, since the triggering condition required the Crescent City to suffer a crisis of annihilation, it was better not to trigger it. Better.
"I'll take you there to have a look again." Sherry said.
The two finally walked around the Crescent City and finally returned to the starting point. After walking around like this, Lin Tianlang also had a preliminary understanding of the layout of Crescent City. The city is not big, but it is full of surprises.
Inadvertently, time slipped away quietly. The sun began to set gradually in the west, and the sky gradually became darker. A flash of red hung in the western sky, and the sky was about to be dominated by night.
"It's almost dinner time now, isn't it?" Lin Tianlang asked. Thinking about it, he was really hungry. During the two days of trekking, the two of them did not eat any serious meals, only dry food. Lin Sirius was looking forward to having a normal dinner.
"Well, yes, please come with me." Sheris nodded, and then motioned for Lin Sirius to follow.
The two walked around a big tree. Behind the tree, Lin Sirius saw several rows of long tables. The long table was densely covered with food, most of which were vegetables and fruits, but Sirius also saw a small amount of meat.
"At dinner time, we will have a banquet and everyone will get together." Sherry said.
"Wow, it looks good!" Lin Sirius' eyes widened when he saw these rich foods, and his stomach made a "gurgling" sound at the right time.
"Giggle." Hearing Lin Sirius's stomach growl, Sherry covered her mouth and laughed softly: "Then let's go there quickly."
