Chapter 2968: Accidents and Confessions

Seventon.

After several years, Xia Duo came to the Great Arena again to watch the Snow Melting Competition in person. This year he also brought Niya along; in fact, Saville, Aipusi, Aiboke, and others had also come.

It was just that they were not with Xia Duo and his wife, but had gone to the Floating City of the Seven Towers. Having grown tired of their own floating city, they could not help but feel curious about the Seven Towers' new floating city.

This floating city, built following Xia Duo's suggestion, was still named 【New Seventon】 by the Seven Towers. It adopted the method of water body transformation for construction, which was also technical support provided by Xia Duo.

Therefore, the current New Seventon presented itself as an azure inverted mountain peak. The Seven Towers still could not forget the visual impact of the previous peak-cutting and mountain-severing, so they deliberately shaped the new floating city into this appearance.

Moreover, perhaps because they had not mastered spells like 【Wide-Area Prohibition】 to transform space, or simply because they did not like such a method, the city built by the Seven Towers was still on the cross-section of the inverted mountain, rather than inside it.

Of course, there might be some facilities hidden inside, but outsiders had no way of knowing; they only knew the city was built on the cross-section of the inverted mountain.

Unlike Xia Duo's two floating cities, where the cities were both built inside the main body, which was closer to the design of a spaceship and had higher space utilization.

In fact, even without considering space utilization, the volume of the Seven Towers' 【New Seventon】 was not as large as any of Xia Duo's floating cities.

Or rather, the Adamantine main body of Yongle City was actually fixed in shape; it was just that now Xia Shao let it manifest in a spherical form similar to Chang'an City. That was a true change of form, whereas Chang'an City could only use Magic to adjust the space.

Those two points were actually the core of a floating city. Lacking a Mythallar, the protection would be slightly weak, yet it would not be comprehensive. If it did not carry a War Spell, then the Mobile War Spell Platform would not be established, and it would lose its greatest deterrent power.

Chang'an City had its main body built first, and only then was the Mythallar built using the technology of the main body; whereas the later-built Yongle City had the Mythallar built first, and used a more perfect new design, with the main body being built afterward.

……

The opening remarks were started by Badijiaer, followed by speeches from the high-level officials of the Northland Alliance, expressing their expectations for this year's Snow Melting Competition.

During the duration of the upcoming Snow Melting Competition, Chang'an City would not be open to the outside, and the Portal that originally connected the Azure Manor in Seventon to the Code Plaza in Nan Jing would also be temporarily disabled.

Anyone on the floating city could watch for free; this was also one of the costs for the Seven Towers—or more accurately, the Seven Cities Council—to hire Chang'an City as "security."

Niya was even more infected by this collective emotion, waving her arms excitedly, echoing the waves of cheers around her.

Nowadays, not to mention the New Seventon Mythallar, any tourist who had the opportunity to go up this time could see that this new city, still in a state of construction, had absolutely no shadow of a Mythallar.

On the day of the opening, the Great Arena.

If someone really had the ability, they could rush to Nan Jing first, and then teleport to Chang'an City from the Portal at the Code Plaza, but that place actually also temporarily restricted people outside the Territory from using it.

If they wanted to force their way in, Yongle City, which had already been redeployed to Nan Jing, would teach them a lesson.

It was not going to Seventon to watch in person, but broadcasting on the floating city. Right at Hengchun Square, the Seven Towers had sent people over to set up a set of real-time Projection facilities.

He estimated that the Seven Towers would likely be unable to completely solve this problem within half a year. This was actually not a big problem; after all, 【New Seventon】 was still under construction.

As for whether it carried a War Spell that could be used at any time, it was hard for outsiders to judge, but Xia Shao happened to know, because not long ago the Seven Towers had just sought his help to solve the problem of unstable instantaneous output of the Mythallar.

The reason for letting Chang'an City do this instead of Yongle City was mainly because Xia Shao considered that the infrastructure inside Yongle City had not yet begun construction and had little popularity, while Chang'an City already had many permanent residents.

Xia Shao's War Spell Magic Artifact was coordinated through the Mythallar to achieve a state that seemed simple but actually had a very high threshold of 【available at any time】. In this aspect, the Seven Towers lagged too far behind.

This was not a problem with the Mythallar, but instability in the transmission process from the Mythallar to the War Spell Core Artifact. The volume of a War Spell was huge, and it was difficult to design a single Magic Artifact; instead, multiple Magic Artifacts had to cooperate.

Therefore, this year, the human performances were also exceptionally worth looking forward to.

There were both the elegant collective chanting of the Elves and the wild and fierce war dances of the Dwarves. Of course, for humans, what they looked forward to most was actually the human performances; it was said that during the first opening performance, they even brought out a striptease.

It was just that there were many tourists for this Snow Melting Competition, and they had to bring out the new 【New Seventon】 in advance to divert the flow, which caused problems.

And correspondingly, Yongle City had also been transferred back to Nan Jing from the Langas Plain.

As for where the limit was, it had a direct relationship with the floating city's Mythallar and Flight Control System. According to Xia Shao's calculations, it could at least be expanded to twice the size of Chang'an City.

Bringing Chang'an City over also happened to let the residents or members of the Tower of Time watch a higher-standard, higher-level Snow Melting Competition while watching the Territory's competition.

Chang'an City was already fixed; unless the Mythallar was rebuilt in the future, it would be difficult to have a breakthrough in volume. On the contrary, Yongle City, which looked smaller now, could continue to expand before reaching its limit.

Therefore, during this month, above Seventon, besides the semi-finished floating city of New Seventon, Xia Shao's Chang'an City would also stay at a higher altitude until the Snow Melting Competition ended.

After the leader's speech came the performance segment. This was a segment that had only just emerged in the past few sessions. Xia Shao did not intervene in it, but the Seven Towers and the Council had learned without a teacher and came up with quite a few fancy tricks.

Of course, even Yongle City, which looked smaller now, was a complete behemoth compared to the Seven Towers' 【New Seventon】.

Besides, the construction progress of 【New Seventon】 was also far inferior to Yongle City. At the very least, Yongle City already possessed a perfect Mythallar system and carried a War Spell that could be used at any time.

Xia Shao and Niya appeared in the audience seats as ordinary spectators, surrounded by waves of deafening cheers. Even though Xia Shao had anticipated it, he was still shocked by the enthusiasm of the audience.

Later, because the criticism from all sides was too loud, the following two times there were no such unpresentable performances, but every time there were new tricks, and it was quite rare for them to be different every time.

Any slight instability in the energy transmission would affect the generation and re-creation of the War Spell. In layman's terms, the success rate did not reach the standard line, and the cooldown time was relatively long, which did not meet expectations.

Even the previously built Yongle City, which seemed smaller in volume than the first Chang'an City, was because the two adopted completely different construction methods.
