Hello, is this a letter addressed to Demon Fortress?

Outside the city gate.

The entrance, which is for ordinary people to enter and exit, is already packed with people.

Four teams.

It extends from the city gate all the way to more than 100 meters away.

It meanders like four gray snakes.

The people in the group were dressed in coarse cloth.

Some were carrying packages, some were holding children, and some were using crutches.

His face was full of fatigue and anxiety.

No one speaks.

They just moved forward silently, little by little.

On both sides of the procession stood the city defense troops.

He was wearing standard armor and had a long sword hanging at his waist.

His gaze swept coldly over the crowd.

Occasionally, someone cuts in line.

They would walk over and pull him out.

Push them aside and make them line up again at the back of the queue as punishment.

Those who were punished dared not utter a sound.

With his head down, he quickly walked to the end of the line.

Lin Gui manipulated his staff and slowly descended.

He originally intended to wait in line patiently.

The staff had just hit the ground.

A city garrison soldier saw him.

He was a middle-aged man.

He had a thick beard, a square face, and a robust build.

His gaze first fell on Lin Gui's staff.

Then it lands at the height where the staff is suspended.

Those cold eyes lit up instantly.

He walked over quickly.

A smile spread across his face.

"My esteemed wizard."

"You don't need to queue."

He turned to the side and made a "please" gesture.

"You can bring your friends directly through the fast track."

wizard.

A name that circulates only within the magic world.

It is a specific term for magicians who can levitate.

The men are called wizards, and the women are called witches.

Lin Gui had just descended from the sky.

The staff floats in the air, and the two ride on it.

It's hard to avoid being discovered.

He nodded.

Manipulate the staff and float towards the shortcut on the other side.

Elvia followed behind him.

The fast lane also has checkpoints.

A guard stood there.

Strength: Exceptional mid-level.

He saw Lin Gui floating over and immediately stood up straight.

"My Lord Wizard."

He bowed his head slightly, his tone respectful.

"Where are you from?"

Lin Gui said calmly.

"Deadwood Town".

The guard nodded and made a note in the register.

asked again.

"What brings you to Tongmen City?"

Lin Gui said.

"Participate in the transport team selection."

The guard's eyes shone even brighter.

He put down his pen and handed over the register with both hands.

"I see."

"Sir, please sign here and then you can go in."

His tone was even more respectful than before.

It even carried a hint of ingratiation.

Lin Gui took the pen and signed his name.

The guard took the register and bowed again.

"I wish you success in the selection process, sir."

"please."

He stepped aside.

Lin Gui manipulated his staff and floated into the gate.

Elvia followed behind.

When passing through the gate.

She chuckled softly.

"I didn't expect your levitation technique to have this effect."

Lin Gui said calmly.

"A mage who can levitate, regardless of rank."

"You can become a member of the transport team anytime you want."

"To attain a transcendent status."

His gaze was fixed ahead.

"Just like them."

Elvia followed his gaze.

Inside the city gate, near the base of the city wall.

A transport convoy is parked there.

A huge trackless train, loaded with goods.

The car body is printed with an eagle with outstretched wings.

Several people dressed in luxurious robes were standing beside the car.

The leader was a chubby middle-aged man.

She was wearing several rings on her hands, some gold and some gemstones.

He was bent over, his face beaming with smiles.

He was talking to the transport team.

The man in the transport team was a tall, thin young man.

He was wearing a dark blue robe with a transport team badge pinned to his chest.

He leaned against the car, arms crossed over his chest.

His face was full of impatience.

The fat nobleman said a few words.

The young man suddenly raised his hand.

She slapped him across the face.

"Snapped!"

The crisp sound of a slap echoed through the city gate.

The fat nobleman's head was knocked to the side.

The smile on his face froze for a moment.

Then he turned back.

The smile deepened.

He bent down and moved closer.

They continued talking.

His tone was even more humble than before.

The young man snorted coldly.

He waved his hand, as if shooing away a fly.

The fat nobleman nodded repeatedly.

Take a few steps back.

Then he turned around and walked away quickly.

He still wore that ingratiating smile.

Lin Gui sat sideways on his staff.

The staff floated slowly forward.

He watched this scene as if it were a play.

Elvia followed his example.

Sitting sideways.

Then, he actually pulled a fruit out of his pocket.

"Crunch!" I took a bite.

Juice dripped down the corners of his mouth.

She wiped it with the back of her hand.

His eyes were fixed on that side without blinking.

The fat nobleman took a few steps.

I caught a glimpse of them out of the corner of my eye.

I saw the two people sitting on their staffs, leisurely munching on melons and fruits.

A black-haired mage.

A blonde woman.

It just hung there in mid-air.

Watching him like he was a monkey show.

The fat nobleman's face instantly turned red.

He clenched his fist.

They took a step forward.

then.

He saw Lin Gui's dangling feet.

His steps suddenly stopped.

The fist slowly loosened.

The anger on his face gradually faded.

He lowered his head.

Turn around.

He left quickly.

His steps were even more hurried than before.

The tall, thin transport team member also saw Lin Gui.

His gaze fell on the floating staff.

His eyes lit up.

He walked over quickly.

"My esteemed wizard."

A smile spread across his face.

He was a completely different person from before.

"I am the vice-captain of the 'Iron Feather' transport team."

"Does Your Excellency have joined the transport team?"

Lin Gui said calmly.

"Got it."

The young man's smile froze for a moment.

But it recovered quickly.

That's a real shame.

He took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over with both hands.

"If you change your mind, you can come to me anytime."

"Our Iron Feather Transportation Team offers excellent benefits."

Lin Gui took the business card and glanced at it.

He nodded.

The young man bowed again, then turned and left.

The staff continued to float forward.

The city gate is very deep.

The city walls of Tongmen City soared into the clouds.

And its thickness is even more astonishing.

It is a full 100 meters wide.

The staff floated in the city gate.

The two sides are gray-white stone walls.

The ceiling is high and arched.

The magic stone was embedded in the wall, emitting a faint glow.

The light was dim, and there was a chill in the air.

The shadow of the staff was stretched very long.

Inside this hundred-meter-long city gate.

Lin Gui now had three more business cards in his hand.

All of this occurred during the time it took to pass through the city gate.

It was handed to me by someone.

There were transport teams and chambers of commerce.

Apart from the original transport team, most of them were not registered with the transport guild.

It's highly likely that they're here to participate in the selection process for the transportation team.

They saw the Forest Ghost's floating staff.

He then approached her, handed her his business card, and tried to get on her good side.

Lin Gui accepted them all with a smile.

There was neither refusal nor agreement.

at last.

Light appeared ahead.

The staff passed through the city gate.

We have officially entered the Copper Gate City.
