Chapter 276

The airship traveled for three days, and finally arrived at the hometown of the Ultramarines.

Macragge is also the name of a mountain range, located in the southwest of the Sain Plateau. In the language of many barbarian tribes, Macragge means "the mountain on the plateau", which is the link between the Sain Plateau and the World Mountain Range. Boundary Mountain.

The closer you get to the Macragge Mountains, the higher the altitude and the lower the temperature.

Even in the hottest summer, the wind here is still chilly, and the wind howls even more at night, so you have to cover yourself with a quilt when sleeping in the airship.

Looking into the distance, one can see endless mountain peaks.

The top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round.

"That should be the World Mountain Range." Ren stood on the deck and looked ahead, and checked a map of the Yoreser continent on his phone.

The World Mountains, also known as the Roof of the World, is the highest altitude area in Allenhaus.

This huge mountain range is in the shape of an irregular belt as a whole, separating the Yoreser Continent, which is also known as the "Old Continent". Half of the mountain range runs from north to south, and the remaining half runs from It runs from northwest to southeast, like a huge hook.

The hook-shaped end of the mountains extends into the territory of the Principality of Hohaven, and the Sain Plateau is just inside and north of this "hook".

If you compare the size, the Thain Plateau is similar to the World Mountain Range.

There is no clear dividing line between the two. The biggest difference is that in addition to the mountains, the plateau has a large flat grassland, which breeds many races and creatures, while the terrain of the world mountains is steeper and the climate is colder. Survive.

Both the dragon and the dwarves claim to be the masters of the world's mountains, but one lives on the top of the mountain and the other lives underground, and they have nothing to do with each other.

The hometown of the Macragges can also be regarded as a part of the world's mountains.

In fact, the Macragge Mountains are also of great significance to the empire. This is the birthplace of the longest river in the empire, the Nakumer River, but not many people know about it, and even fewer people have been there.

at noon.

Suddenly, a vast plateau appeared in front of the airship. At the end of the field of vision, dozens of tall peaks stood there densely, like a high wall stretching between heaven and earth, which was daunting.

"Finally home!"

"Astartes, we are back..."

The Ultramarines were on the deck, shouting loudly in the direction of the mountains. They looked excited, and some of them half-kneeled and prayed in low voices to their hometown.

This plateau is dotted with hundreds of lakes of different sizes, with lush water and grass, magnificent scenery, and even large forests.

This is one of the most pleasant areas that Rennes has seen since entering the plateau.

The airship continued to fly for more than half an hour, approaching the foot of the mountains, and finally, a magnificent city completely made of rocks appeared in view.

Ren looked at the city and couldn't help being very surprised.

Sicarius and the others have always referred to their hometown as a tribe.

In Ren's impression, the tribe of the barbarians should be very simple and may occupy a large area, but with the level of civilization and technology of the barbarians, they are definitely far inferior to humans. At most, it would be good to build houses with logs and stones .

Along the way, the several barbarian tribes that the airship passed were indeed very backward.

However, what you see in front of you is a real city!

And it's spectacular.

The city was built on the mountain, integrated with a huge cliff at least 800 meters high, and divided into five floors from top to bottom.

On the bottom first floor, a city wall more than ten meters high is built around it, forming a semicircle to protect the city. There are hundreds of stone houses built on the flat ground inside the city wall. Walking along the avenue of the main entrance, at the bottom of the cliff, there are two long slopes leading to the second floor of the city.

Then there is the third floor and the fourth floor. Each floor is connected by slopes or tunnels. The higher the number of floors, the narrower the area and the fewer buildings.

Each floor has an independent city wall and entrance, like a heavily defended fortress, it is difficult for thousands of troops to attack.

A huge rock is like a sharp knife, cutting the whole city into two halves.

This blade-like rock extends from the back of the main entrance square on the first floor to the top of the city. The top of the rock was chiseled flat, which is the fifth floor, and a majestic temple was built with white boulders.

There is a gray and white tower standing in the temple. Standing on the top of the tower, you can overlook the whole city.

After crossing the temple, there are steeper stone walls behind, and the two sides are suspended in the air. Unless the enemy can fly, it is impossible to attack the city from the mountain pulse behind it.

Ren looked at this unearthly city of rocks.

Although its overall scale is not large, it is far inferior to those big cities in the empire, and it may only have tens of thousands of people at most, which is less than the population of a village on the outskirts of Modu, but there is a vicissitudes, simplicity, and grandeur Come on, it's breathtaking.

"Sicarius, why didn't you tell me before that the tribe is like this?" Ren asked with admiration.

"Uh..." Sicarius scratched his head, "I thought you knew, boss."

Ren's face froze.

He always appears to be knowledgeable in front of others, as if he knows more than anyone else, but in fact, he relies on his mobile phone library to show himself to others, that is, pretending to be aggressive.

There are so many things I don't know...

Ren muttered.

Taking advantage of the time before the airship landed, he hurriedly searched the information on Mount Macragge in the library, and quickly obtained detailed information.

It turned out that the city was not built by barbarians, but by dwarves.

At the beginning of the last epoch, about 10,000 years ago, the dwarves rose up, walked out of the world mountains, and gradually ruled the vast area of ​​the Sain Plateau and the eastern part of the old continent, including the current empire territory, which was once the territory of the dwarves.

The dwarves built many cities on the plateau. The most famous one is this one, which is called "Mundberg" in the dwarf language. It was once the political center of the dwarves on the plateau.

The Abyss invaded at the end of the Era, and the Dwarves were weakened and retreated beneath the World Mountains.

This magnificent city was abandoned by the dwarves, and was taken over by the barbarians on the plateau. After several battles, it changed hands many times, and finally the Macragges became the masters of the city until now.

The Macragge named it "Astarte" after their oldest ancestor.

This name is only passed down within the tribe.

Because of its superior geographical location and the fertile land outside the city, Astartes was coveted by many barbarian tribes, troll tribes and even various intelligent races on the plateau, and wars continued for hundreds of years.

The Macragges have lost the protection of the gods again, and it is not easy to hold on until now.

The airship arrived over the city.

Still a few kilometers away, the Macragges in the city were startled. The temple tower on the top sounded a resounding horn, and groups of tall barbarians ran around and climbed up the city wall.

Every savage, male or female, is powerful, with a weapon in his hand and a javelin at his back.

They hid behind the city walls on each floor, looking up at the airship in the sky, their eyes were alert and somewhat curious, but none of them showed fear.

Ren kept the airship at a safe distance and hovered in mid-air.

Then he said to the three Ultramarines riding the Fire Dragon, "Go down first."

"Okay, boss."

The three of Sicarius jumped on the fire dragon, and with their legs clamped, the dragon glides down towards the city.

The arrival of the three fire dragons made the Macragge people below even more vigilant, but some people saw the figure on the dragon's back clearly and recognized them as their own race.

"Don't do it."

On the huge rock platform at the highest point of the city, in the open space in front of the temple, an extremely strong and stalwart Macragge stood on the edge of the platform and shouted loudly, the sound spread throughout the city.

Ren looked at him, and the eyes of the soul saw that this was a legendary barbarian.

As the Ultramarines have mentioned before, there is currently only one legend among the Macragge tribe, the patriarch Marius.

This is the strongest barbarian Ren has ever seen. His strength is close to that of the legendary mid-level. He has more than twenty elements, most of which are powerful physical elements, making his physical fitness frighteningly stronger than the average Macragge. People are still a head taller, nearly 2.5 meters;

Strength, Swiftness, Fortitude, Endurance, Self-Healing, Quick Recovery, Unyielding Will, Charge, Heavy Attack, Eye of Seeing, Precision Throwing, Cleave, Wind Slash, Shadow Thrust, Lightning Retaliation, Sprint, Jumping in the air, unloading force, fighting frenzy, shock wave, burst of power, screaming, ignoring pain, poison resistance...

In terms of strength alone, this barbarian patriarch has reached level eight. Just like himself, various combat skill elements have almost reached the upper limit after years of training and strengthening.

He is a fully enhanced version of Sicarius!

The elements that Sicarius possessed, Marius has, and they are stronger; the elements that Sicarius does not have, Marius also has, and has been trained to a very high level.

Ren felt a little pressure when he glanced at it.

If you only compare melee strength, you may not be his opponent. Of course, if you use various boosting methods and spells, defeating him should not be a problem.

The fire dragon descended to the very top of the city, the platform in front of the temple.

The three of Sicarius jumped down and said, "Patriarch, we are back."

Surprised in Marius' eyes, the barbarian warriors around him were also extremely curious, and they exclaimed one after another.

Marius looked at Sicarius in heavy armor, glanced at the three fiery dragons, and finally landed on the airship in the sky, and finally asked: "Sicarius, what happened to you in the empire this year?" , why such a big change?"

"Where did you get the fire dragon mount?"

"Also, what happened to the airship in the sky?"

"Huh? No!"

Before Marius finished asking, his eyes suddenly changed, he stared at the three Ultramarines, as if he had discovered something terrible, his face was extremely shocked: "Sicarius, and Tyrion, why are you all advanced?" Is it legendary?"
