Once all my drop items were hidden away I decided what I was going to sell at the adventurer's guild.
"Sounds nice, maybe I will make a nice amount of money." I said as I thought of the amount of money I was going to get.
"So I have a question." I said as Miss. Night seemed interesting.
"How much can a silver buy me?" I asked her as she suddenly coughed in surprise.
"What?" She asked me.
"I am just asking how much a silver can buy me and what are some prices of simple items that I might need." I said as she started to laugh for a minute after she finally calmed down she sighed.
"About 10 silver is enough to support a normal family for about a year if they don't spend on anything unnecessary. The currency goes like this as well. One gold is equal to 100 silver and one silver is equal to 100 copper. There is also a higher currency than gold called white gold which one is equal to 100 gold and then platinum which one is worth 100 white gold." She said as I liked the base 100 system they had going.
Still I felt that platinum was something that only countries exchanged with each other. Almost like a billion dollars trades back home.
"But I don't think a barbarian like you will ever see one of those." She said.
"Didn't I just give you enough drop items for several white gold?" I asked her as I bet her facial expression froze right there.
"Umm…oh look the gate!" She said frantically as I rolled my eyes. As I did I looked ahead as I froze in place as the carriages kept going.
This place was massive and I don't mean like twice the size of slave capital. I mean twenty to thirty times larger than that city, thanks to our elevated position from coming out of some mountains I could truly see just how large this place was.
Several massive rivers and maybe thousands of smaller ones ran through its walls, most the size of the Mississippi and some even larger.
Along its left edge ran what looked to be a massive lake or even an ocean as I saw thousands of boats sailing across it. Some were even floating in the air above it.
I couldn't even see the end of the shore line as the city went on forever, the wall surrounding it was just as bit large than the slave city but there were rings of walls slowly leading inward.
Villages with vast green fields were present and even castles in each ring. But in the third ring I saw something larger than any castle or building right until the 12th ring.
It was a building that reached for the sky, it looked like Hogwarts but way bigger. Around it were floating objects each held up by a magic circle.
Many were platforms which seemed to hold vegetation and had fields to practice certain magic on.
There were even several story buildings on the floating rocks. I just stared in awe at the massive building which I guessed was the academy.
But past the academy and what I supposed was the king's castle or whatever this place ruled under. It was like a skyscraper made of clear blue crystal and went up to at least 1200 stories tall.
I could tell magic was a major part in forming this massive structure, to keep it from tipping over I bet there were thousands of barriers surrounding it.
No building on earth during my time ever reached that tall.
"That is one tall building." I said as I caught up to Miss. Nights carriage.
As I did I started to notice hundreds of thousands of fields around it, I guess you got to feed you people somehow.
"Yes they call it the Tower of Babel, the tower that will touch the skies and bring the fortune of the gods to the people. That is where only the most powerful people in this country can go to acquire a small amount of that fortune. It is also is this country's strongest defense and can acts as a major deterrent for any attack countries." She said.
"So have you ever been in it?" I asked her.
"No I have not, I am yet a high enough level to even step foot in it." Said Miss. Night as I let out a whistle.
"What level do you have to be to step foot in it?" I asked her.
"At least 1200." She said as I coughed violently as I looked at her carriage.
"A 1200! Wait then who is the strongest in the country?" I asked her.
"There are actually two that share the title. They both have a level of 1893 and are classified as walking natural disasters. They can be thought of as the guardians of this country as they always looked over it." She said as I stood there in awe. Even I was impressed.
"What are their names?" I asked as I could see her silhouette shrug.
"I do not know and neither does the guild. They like to keep their info under wraps. But one thing I do know is that the male is a demi human of an ancient chaos dragon bloodline while the female is also a demi human but she comes from a phoenix bloodline. Both are incredibly powerful and if you ever see them don't make them angry." She said as I nodded.
"Fair enough." I said as I finally decided to use [Analyze] on the capital. But as I did nothing popped up as I frowned, I guess we were too far away for me to use it.
"Also in general don't piss anybody off while you are here." Said Miss. Night as suddenly a new box popped up in front of me.
