Chapter 1392: Nice City


When the steam train climbs the Blanken Mountain outside of Nice, the train will slowly travel along the tracks on the top of the mountain for about three to four minutes. During these three to four minutes, the passengers inside the train can overlook the entire city of Nice from the top of the mountain. Overall, this is also one of the best viewing spots in Nice.
At this time, Leo and Sylvia, who saw Nice City at first sight, both thought that they saw a Miria City. This is not to say that the architectural style of the city is the same as Miria City, but Nice City. The layout of the Zhenti city is very similar to Miria City.
If the maps of the two cities are overlapped in equal proportions, it is easy to find that except for the two or three districts that are different, all the other districts and their functions are exactly the same, and it is not difficult to see those two or three. The urban areas should all be newly added urban areas after urban expansion, not core urban areas.
"Who do you think is imitating whom?" Sylvia turned to Leo after recovering from her surprise.
"I can't judge for the time being." Leo hesitated a little, and responded vaguely.
If you follow the normal comparison method, it is natural to judge by the construction time. If this is the judgment, then the construction time of Nice City is obviously earlier than Miria City.
The city of Nice was built in the early stages of the Great Migration. Although it is not the first civilized city in the New World, it is the first world-class city. It was built almost three times earlier than the city of Miria. About a hundred years.
But the problem is that the flow of time between the two worlds is different. A year in this world may only be equivalent to half a year or even shorter or longer time when placed in Miria City. Therefore, the construction time of cities in the two worlds It does not have the value of comparison at all.
However, leaving aside the key condition of construction time, when the train began to enter the city and passed by one of the lakes, Leo discovered that from other aspects of the two cities, it was possible to judge the construction sequence of the two cities. of.
For example, lakes. Both the upper and lower Crescent Moon Lakes in Nice City are natural lakes. They existed before the city was built. In the migration history of the New World, there is a lot of content about these two lakes because they occupy a very important part in the migration history. status.
Because the two lakes and the surrounding branch water systems in the north, which are dry, rainless, and water-less, are the most important source of clean water in the entire north, people from the Old World can settle down in the New World and increase the number of migratory populations. The very important reason is that the discovery These two lakes.
It's just that the two lakes are not named after the upper and lower quarter moon lakes, but named after the two sages of the spring temple. As for the city of Nice, it was also built with two lakes as the center.
The city of Miria was originally a swamp area, and it was not suitable for building a city at all. Although there was a lot of water, those waters were only puddles and puddles. The final moon lake was the embankment when Miria City was built. Storing water.
Therefore, it is not difficult to judge from this small detail that the construction time of Nice City should be earlier than Miria City.
Of course, it is also possible that the builders deliberately wanted to find two lakes that are exactly the same as the Upper and Lower Crescent Moon Lake, and then build the city of Nice next to the two lakes according to the city layout of Miria, but this possibility is very slim. .
When the train drove into the central station in the city, the three people got off the train and directly found a hotel near the train station to live in. Then Leo analyzed the city construction that he analyzed from the condition of the lake successively and described in detail. Listen to Sylvia.
After hearing this, Sylvia nodded in agreement, and then added: "I think I know who used the urban construction style of Nice to build Miria."
Leo asked curiously: "Who is it?"
Sylvia did not answer, but raised the curtains of the hotel and pointed to the top of a large building that was obviously higher than the other buildings in the city.
After seeing the top of the large building, without any other explanation, Leo also showed a stunned look on his face, and said with a little surprise: "He actually came from this world?"
I saw that there was a large and eye-catching church emblem on the top of the large building that was a large part of the surrounding buildings. Although the shape of the church emblem is different, the different places are small places with small details. The core parts representing the gods inland rivers are exactly the same, and they all represent the same gods and hill kings.
Among the many gods in the world of Velen, the origin of the king of the hill has always been mysterious, and it has always been shrouded in a thick fog.
Other gods, even Cthulhu, can trace their roots to find their original original beliefs. You can see the history of the development of this god’s church. Only the hill king seems to appear out of thin air. Before the hill king church appeared, Minsk There is no similar church of faith in the mainland, the mainland of Vinylon, and the mainland of Mozambique. This is the result of repeated investigations and verifications by many religious scholars in the world of Vinylon.
The Hill King, a newly emerged faith in the true god, has a complete church and doctrine as soon as it appears, and the power of the Hill King can even be comparable to the Lord of All Things, which can be said to be the oldest in the world of Velen. The faith in Minsk was evenly divided and became one of the most important true gods in the world of Vinylon.
From all the details, it can be seen that the origin of the true of the hill king is very mysterious, which has become an unsolved mystery in the history of the world religion of Vinylon.
However, now this unsolved mystery seems to be found in another by Leo and Sylvia, that is, the hill king is the of another world, and the hill king church is most likely the church of this world, but they passed Some methods entered the world of Velen, which brought the Church of the King of the Hill to Velen.
In this way, the main urban architecture of Nice City and Miria City will be exactly the same and there is an explanation, because the design and construction of Miria City, the Church of the Hill Kings, which far surpasses other churches in terms of architecture, participated in the whole process. Among them, and played a leading role.
"Go over there and take a look." Sylvia quickly became interested, and said towards Leo.
Leo also nodded, but when the two were about to go out, he stopped Penny, who was also planning to be with him, and instructed Penny to continue the previous training, but because the area of ​​Nice was larger than that of any previous city. To be big, so the training requirements naturally increased tenfold, and he also gave some money to Petunia in case of emergency.
After the order was over, he left the dumbfounded Petistan in the hotel alone, while he and Sylvia left the hotel, like two ordinary couple tourists, walking around, shopping, and heading towards The church chapel of the suspected hill king walked over.
As the central city of the New World, Nice City does not belong to a country, but to the entire New World. The agency responsible for the management of this city is a special organization called the Joint Council of Municipal Management.
The members of this organization are composed of municipal councillors appointed by various countries in the New World and observers sent by various churches. They are mainly responsible for discussing and formulating municipal-related political, legal and construction bills, but they are not directly Participate in city management.
They will recruit municipal management officials and grassroots civil servants through open recruitment and assessment, etc. Basically, these people come from countries in the New World, and sometimes some talents from the Old World will come here to participate in the assessment. In short People living here often see several police officers or civil servants who are engaged in other jobs on the road. They are from two countries that are enemies of each other, but they are able to cooperate and work perfectly at this moment.
Just like the city of Miria, the city of Nice is also because the people who live here come from all over the world. These people have their own clothing styles and their own national clothing styles. These styles eventually blend together to form the unique city of Nice. An extremely gorgeous style of clothing, and this style is also called Nice style, which represents the most fashionable style in the world.
After passing through a high-end clothing store, the two also bought a set of finished Nice-style clothing that suits their body shape. It is not that they think this style is good-looking, but that their clothing is in Nice, especially in this piece of clothing. In the church district of the city, it is particularly eye-catching and prominent.
Compared with ordinary clothing, Nice-style clothing has three main characteristics. The first feature is that the overall clothing is extremely indirect. It looks like a military uniform that combines hunting clothing. As long as it is a slightly decent figure, wear this The style of clothing must be able to look slender and capable.
The second feature is that there are many patterns. Each set of Nice-style clothing has a large number of decorative patterns. Most of these patterns are decorative patterns of some folk costumes, but some are the squiggles of a certain church, and some are complicated. The patterns are also available, but most of them need to accompany some lace, making the costumes look a little mysterious and gorgeous.
The last feature is accessories. One or two gorgeous accessories will be hung on Nice-style clothing to balance the simplicity of the clothing form.
In addition, for some people with special identities, accessories that represent their own identity will be hung in eye-catching positions on their bodies, such as the emblem of a certain church, the family coat of arms of a certain nobleman and big man, and so on.
Leo didn't make any changes after putting on this nice outfit, while Sylvia hung the emblem of her Belmont family as an ornament on her body in a prominent position.
Because the two were not in a hurry to go to the location of the building, they made some detours on the road and stopped at some shops, and finally arrived under the building in the evening.
Looking at the rough architectural style of the building in front of them, Leo and Sylvia became more and more certain that the church to which this building belonged was related to the Church of the King of the Hill.
It is a pity that this church is only open to the public during some religious ceremonies, and it is closed the rest of the time, and non-church members are not allowed to enter.
However, Leo and Sylvia still figured out which church the building belongs to from some surrounding shops.
The name of this church is the Rock Church. The object of their belief is a boulder on the highest peak of the Old Continent. It is said that the founder of this church was just a hermit of a small local church. He came to the Old Continent in order to find a place where he could escape from the world. At the top of the highest peak, the enlightenment was obtained from the mysterious existence in the huge rock, and the current Rock Church was established.
The specific information about this Rock Church is basically zero in Sylvia, and Leo knows very little, because Rock Church does not preach in the New World, and the church church in Nice is their only New World diocese. Therefore, it has never been regarded as a church in the New World, and it is not mentioned in all the church materials that record the New World. Instead, it is repeatedly mentioned in some secular matters.
Because the clergy of the Rock Church are the best architects and urban planners in the world, they have undertaken the most important architectural design and construction projects of the countries and churches in the New World. For example, the Parliament Building of the Otter Federation is from this church. The hands of the clergy and even architecture lecturers in every country have the presence of this church, so in the New World they have an influence that is completely opposite to the size of the parish they control.
Except for these materials written in the history of architecture and national history of various countries, there are no other materials related to church theology, doctrine, etc. It seems that this Rock Church is not very important to fame and wealth.
However, this seems to Leo and Sylvia to be the disguise of the Rock Church, because if this church is really related to the Hill Kings Church, then the clergy of this church will definitely not be indifferent to fame and fortune.
Because among the many true God churches in the world of Vinylon, the clergy of the Hill King’s Church are the churches with the heaviest worldly desires and greed. They will destroy a mountain directly for a rare mineral, and they don’t care about it. After this mountain is destroyed, what adverse effects will it have on the surrounding environment, and what disasters will the people living around encounter?
They will also participate in secular political struggles for the power and interests that they have in their hands, and sometimes even end up fighting with others in person.
All in all, Leo and Sylvia did not believe in the image of Rock Church in the eyes of the public and the content recorded in external materials.
Therefore, they plan to wait until the evening before sneaking into the church temple to investigate and find out the details of the Rock Church.
So Leo and Sylvia found a restaurant nearby, and they were eating while waiting for it to get dark.
Because it is a church district, except for a few church temples and churches where religious ceremonies are still open at night, other churches are closed, and the streets have become quite deserted.
However, the defense forces in this area are much stronger than during the day, because there are a large number of church knights patrolling the streets of their respective churches.
