Chapter 276 Patriarch Macragg
After the airship sailed for three days, the hometown of the extreme warriors finally arrived.
Makurague is also the name of a mountain range, located in the southwest of the Sain Plateau. In the language of many barbarian tribes, Makurague means "a mountain on the plateau" and is the boundary mountain between the Sain Plateau and the world mountain range.
The closer we are to the Makurag Mountains, the altitude gradually increases and the temperature decreases accordingly.
Even in the hottest summer, the wind here is still cold, and it is even colder at night. You have to cover yourself with a quilt when sleeping in the airship.
Looking into the distance, you can see endless mountains.
The top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round.
"There should be the World Mountains there." Rennes stood on the deck and looked ahead, and took out a map of the Joreser continent in his mobile phone to check it out.
The World Mountains, also known as the Roof of the World, are the highest altitude area of Alan's.
This huge mountain range is an irregular band, separating the Joreser continent, which is known as the "Old Continent", from the middle. Half of the mountain ranges move from north to south, and the remaining half moves from northwest to southeast, like a huge hook.
The hook-like end of the mountain range extends into the territory of the Duchy of Hohaben, and the Sain Plateau is inside and to the north of this "hook".
If you compare the size of the area, the Sain Plateau is similar to the World Mountains.
There is no obvious dividing line between the two. The biggest difference is that in addition to the peaks, there are also large areas of flat grasslands, which breed many races and creatures. The terrain of the world's mountains is steeper and the climate is colder, making it difficult for ordinary species to survive.
The dragon and the dwarf both claim to be the owners of the World Mountains, but one lives on the top of the mountain and the other lives on the ground, and they have nothing to do with each other.
The hometown of the Makurages can also be regarded as part of the world's mountains.
In fact, the Makurag Mountains also have great significance to the empire. This is the birthplace of the Naqumo River, the longest river in the empire. However, not many people know about it, and even fewer people have been here.
It's noon.
Suddenly, a vast plateau appeared in front of the airship. At the end of the field of view, dozens of tall peaks stood densely there, like a high wall across the sky and the earth, which was daunting.
"Finally go home!"
"Astadt, we're back..."
The extreme warriors shouted loudly on the deck towards the mountains. They looked excited, and several of them half-kneeled down and prayed in a low voice to their hometown location.
This plateau is dotted with hundreds of lakes of varying 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 made of rocks appeared in sight.
Renn looked at the city and couldn't help but be very surprised.
Sikalius and his friends always called their hometown a tribe.
In Renn's impression, the barbarian tribe should be very simple and may occupy a wide area, but with the barbarians' civilization and technical level, 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 by were indeed very backward.
However, what you see is a real city!
And very spectacular.
The city is built on the mountain and blends into a huge cliff at least 800 meters high, divided into five levels from top to bottom.
The first floor at the bottom is built with a city wall of more than ten meters high outside, forming a semicircle to protect the city. There are hundreds of stone houses built on the flat ground inside the city wall. Walk along the main entrance road. 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 fewer buildings.
Each floor has independent city walls and entrances, like a strongly defended fortress, and it is difficult for thousands of troops to attack.
A huge rock cuts the entire city into half like a sharp blade.
This sharp-edged rock extends upward from the rear of the first main entrance square to the top of the city. The top of the rock was chiseled flat, which is the fifth floor, and a towering temple was built with white giant stones.
There are gray and white towers standing in the temple. Standing on the top of the tower, you can overlook the entire city.
After crossing the temple, there are steeper stone walls behind them, hanging on both sides. Unless the enemy can fly, it is impossible to rush down from the mountains behind to attack the city. It is as solid as a god.
Renn looked at this magical city of rocks from afar.
Although its overall scale is not large, far less than that of the big cities of the empire, it may only have tens of thousands of people to live in, which is smaller than a village and town outside Modu, but a vicissitudes of vicissitudes, simplicity and magnificent momentum are breathtaking.
"Sicalus, why haven't you told me before that this is the tribe?" Renn asked with admiration.
"Uh..." Sikalius scratched his head, "I thought you know, boss."
Rennes's face stagnated.
He always shows a knowledgeable look in front of others, as if he knows more than anyone else. In fact, he relies on mobile phones and library people to show off, that is, to show off.
I don't know more...
Renn muttered.
While the airship had some time to land, he quickly searched the information on Mount Makurag in the library and quickly obtained detailed information.
It turns out that this city was not founded by barbarians, but was made by dwarves.
At the beginning of the last era, about ten thousand years ago, dwarves emerged and walked out of the world mountains, gradually ruled the vast areas of the Sain Plateau and the eastern part of the Old Continent, including the current empire territory, which were once the territory of dwarves.
The dwarves have built many cities on the plateau. The most famous one is the one in front of them. It is called "Mundberg" in the dwarves's words. It was once the political center of the dwarves on the plateau.
At the end of the Era, the abyss invaded, the dwarfs weakened, and retreated to the underground of the world's mountains.
This spectacular city was abandoned by the dwarves and was taken over by the barbarians on the plateau. After several struggles, they changed hands many times. In the end, the Makurages became the owner of the city, until now.
The Makurages named it after their oldest ancestors, called "Astadt".
This name is only circulated within the tribe.
Because of its superior geographical location and the fertile land outside the city, Astarte was coveted by many barbarian tribes, troll tribes and even various intelligent races on the plateau, and wars have continued for hundreds of years.
The Makurages lost the protection of the gods again, and it was difficult for them to stick to this day.
The airship arrives above the city.
Still a few thousand meters away, the Makurag people in the city were alarmed. The loud horn sounded from the temple tower on the top, and teams of tall barbarians ran around and climbed up the city wall.
Every barbarian, both men and women, is powerful, holding weapons and carrying javelins.
They hid behind each floor of the city wall, looked up at the airship in the sky, with their eyes alert and curious, but none of them looked scared.
Rennes kept the airship at a safe distance, hovering in mid-air.
Then he said to the three extreme warriors riding the fire dragon: "You guys go down first."
"Okay, boss."
Sikalius and the other three jumped onto the Fire Dragon, clamped their legs, and the flying dragon glided towards the city.
The arrival of the three-headed fire dragon made the Makurag people below more alert, but some people saw the figure on the back of the flying dragon and recognized them as their own tribe.
"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, a very strong and majestic Makurager stood on the edge of the platform and shouted loudly, and the voice spread throughout the city.
Renn looked at him, and the Eye of Soul saw that this was a legendary barbarian.
The Extreme Warriors have mentioned before that there is currently only one legend in the Makurag tribe, namely the patriarch Marius.
This is the strongest barbarian Renn has ever seen. His strength is close to the legendary middle level and has more than twenty elements, most of which are powerful physical elements, making his physical fitness scary, one head taller than the average Makurager, nearly two meters five meters tall;
Strength, speed, tenacity, lasting endurance, self-healing, rapid recovery, unyielding will, charge, heavy blow, sharp eye of sight, accurate throwing, slashing, wind slash, rapid shadow sprint, lightning counterattack, rapid running, jumping in the air, unloading force, combat fanaticism, shock wave, power explosion, bold roar, ignoring pain, toxin resistance...
The barbarian leader alone achieved the same level of strength. After years of training and strengthening, all the combat skills elements have almost reached the upper limit.
He is the fully enhanced version of Sikalius!
Marius has the elements that Sikalius has, and it is stronger; Marius has the elements that Sikalius does not have, and has trained to a very high level.
Renn felt a little stressed after taking a look.
If you only compare your melee strength, you may not be his opponent. Of course, if you use various amplification methods and spells, it should be no problem to defeat him.
The fiery dragon landed at the top of the city, which was the platform in front of the temple.
Sikalius and the other two jumped down and said, "Captain, we are back."
Marius was surprised in his eyes, and the barbarian warriors around him were also extremely curious and exclaimed.
Marius looked at Sikalius in heavy armor and swept across the three fiery dragons, and finally landed on the airship in the sky. He finally asked: "Sicalius, what happened to you in the empire this year, why did it change so much?"
"Where did you get the Fire Dragon mount?"
"Also, what's going on with that airship in the sky?"
"Hmm? No!"
Before Marius finished asking, his eyes suddenly changed drastically. He stared at the three extreme warriors, as if he had discovered something amazing, and his face was extremely shocked: "Sicarous, and Terion, why have you all advanced to the legend?"
Chapter completed!
