Chapter 1585： Branch city

"When I was studying at Hogwarts, the professor of the magical animal protection class at the time was Mr. Silvanus Kettleborn. This poor fellow retired in 1993 because of his reckless character. At that time, he only had one arm and half a leg left. Even so, he would still go to the Fire Dragon Reserve in his free time... well, it's a long way to go..." said Irving, who is used to making noise from time to time, said calmly. Putting the newspapers in my hand aside, "Anyway, when I was in this class in the third grade, I was assigned to be a breeder of some puffed wool... Once I was hit by a ball in the back of the head while playing Quidditch. After resting for a few days at Ms. Pomfrey, I forgot them, but when I remembered it, I went over and saw that the Purongrong was all dead... What a mess, I was also called the Purongrong Killer for a while. ...But the one who gave me the nickname, I never took the time to look after the puffed wool..."

"Dad...I'm talking about the child's problem now." Albert was inexplicably listening.

"Ah, it's okay." Owen waved his hand. He took a sip of tea from the cup, and then saw the big family smile. "Unlike puffed wool, children will grow up by themselves... right?" Then, while the others were a little dazed by his words, he turned to look at the clone of his youngest son, "Except you, Ellen, you have been done for a long time in this weird branch where we are staying now. Wizards, magical creatures, demons, demons, and some Muggles that will not be Muggles in the future, and even many of them are monsters from other worlds that we have never seen... This city actually allows Muggles to distort a little reality through imagination... You Let us provide you with a place that sounds dangerous...but after accepting so many aliens, you have been running away...so you told us that what you will be back today is true or false. Bar…"

"Don't worry, Dad, Xenofilius will definitely trouble me if he doesn't come back today..." Alan, wearing the magic emperor's ritual magic robe, habitually tapped his fingers on the back of the sofa chair, "Helena's Those dementors are now doing the final work. The surface of the city has been built, but the interior is still undergoing final debugging..."

The original silence in the room was relieved after Allen promised again, some sighs and sobbing sounds came.

"Alan, now that the independent legal governance in Sigil City is not so good for the Magic Empire to control it?" Emily sat upright, her delicate chin, "The lawful devil and chaos in the city now Demons and even neutral evil demons walk all over... I don’t know what method you and Luna, who didn’t return, used to allow these evil creatures to live in peace with those kind creatures and obey the rules... But why not unified What about the law?"

"Emily, you can't count it like that. Hogwarts Floating City is a wizard's, but this city is more than a wizard's. We can't manage it in the way of a manager." Alan, wearing the principal's robe, took a avatar. With a smile on his face, he turned to Emily, who helped him soothe the atmosphere. He also fully understood the careful thoughts of this little power fan sister, "This branch city and the floating city outside are no longer a space. It is based on the distance of the star realm. A world that can be used as a transit point to reach many worlds is already considered a city of ten thousand gates."

Both Ellen's clones stood up and looked at the others at the same time.

"Whether it is good, evil, warring, peaceful—every living or dead who comes to this city...or anyone who is not human at all, I welcome...I know no one will forget it here. Even with the former friendship or hatred, they will never forget their own nature, but the power of me, Luna, and Helena will make them know how to restrain themselves and prevent these emotions from happening..." Allen shrugged and spoke a little arrogantly. "I will not make the law so detailed as I did in Hogwarts Floating City. The right to interpret is in my own hands. I will make it as neutral as possible. And because of this world, other worlds Under the reluctance of the civilization, it brought us the knowledge and wealth of their world..." He paused, "In addition, it can also prevent Luna’s power from being distorted to the reality of the earth’s world, and it can also avoid Huo The turmoil of power on the Floating City of Gwarts."

In fact, after seven years of development, the area of ​​Hogwarts Floating City, the true first city in the magical world, is far from comparable in the past.

Now it seems to have become the political, economic, cultural, financial center of the entire wizarding world and a famous tourist attraction in the wizarding world. There are a large number of scenic spots and museums. Those magical alchemy plants have now developed into the wizarding world's alchemy industry. Core.

In the past few years, many mountain peaks have been cut off and the city has expanded countless times. The city is very prosperous. Magic items from the whole magic world and Muggle world non-electronic products circulate here, as if they have become the world’s material dispersal and magic. The largest gathering place for living creatures.

As a large and diverse magic city now, its residents come from all over the world, not just magical creatures. Some wizards’ Muggle relatives or the Muggle ruling class who will eventually undergo surgery to transform into wizards because of their power also live. in.

This is a melting pot of race, religion, and culture. The original commercial street square is now called "the crossroads of the world." The resounding signboard of Hogwarts Floating City.

And on the periphery of this huge and luxuriant floating city in the Muggle world, there is a huge ring-like building surrounding it, and the floating city of Hogwarts is surrounded by air in the middle of this huge ring. , Surrounded by this huge silver-gray ring suspended in the air.

This makes their combination look like a huge eye that occupies the entire sky. Its scale is the largest of all buildings in the world, and no one can compare it.

The appearance of the ring is vertical and horizontal, filled with mysterious magic runes, and it looks like an incredibly huge magic car tire lying sideways without hub caps or rims, but there is nothing on the outer ring of the tire. Only the clouds in the high air hit this behemoth from time to time, and were instantly hit and scattered.

In fact, this is a branch city built around the floating city of Hogwarts—the inner area and residents actually exceed the branch city of the main city.

The private house belonging to Helena, the **** of death, was built here—this branch city was built on the inner side of the tire, and all the streets and all the buildings were filled inside the curve of the tire.

Its interior, suspended high in the sky, also completely violates conventional physical principles. The rules are very strange and the residents living in the city are firmly absorbed by the outer layer of this big tire, no matter what angle they are walking on the ground, they are all Will not fall because of this. The buildings in the city have adopted spires one by one, and they rise toward the hollow space of the ring. No matter where it is on the ring, it points to the space in the middle of the ring.

And a resident who lives in the city, no matter where this guy is standing, if he looks up, he will see that there are buildings all over his head. Most of the time, people's sight passes through the center of the circle where the branch city is located, so he can see the vast scene of the distant city unless his sight is obscured by smoke, smog, fog or rain. UU read and these residents are used to the gray arch hanging above their heads.

This makes this peculiar city different from Hogwarts Floating City and all cities on earth, precisely because its entire outline and terrain are like a huge ring suspended in the air, and the direction in which the ground is curved It is the opposite of Hogwarts Floating City and all cities on earth.

For example, on the earth, because the surface is a convex surface, there is a horizon, and people can only see things that are on a straight line of vision.

In this seemingly closed city, the ground is upward, not downward. For example, looking down on a long street makes people feel as if the street is rising in front of you, as if you are looking up at a long hillside. What makes this even more confusing is that when a resident is standing on the street, the branch city bends up on both sides in front of him and behind him, so no matter where he goes, he may feel that he is always standing at the bottom of a huge valley.

But also because this is an extremely huge city, and it is crowded with magical creatures, buildings, and smoke standing upright. So unless you look up and look straight up, the average line of sight is rarely more than a few hundred feet. Therefore, as long as it is not for the clock to look straight up, residents will not always see a bowl-like curved surface surrounding him.

An ordinary first-time visitor may only realize that this peculiar new city is not flat a few hours after coming here.
