Walking towards Jafit, everyone saw something incredible.

– If you look closely, you can see high walls that are more than three hundred meters high. Each stone was made from anti-magic ore, and it's hard to even imagine the price of even one such wall. Previously, when creating worlds, everything was not so calm, therefore the first intelligent but weak life forms began to create walls.

"As time went on, these life forms that were given temporary shelter were able to evolve and start creating ever greater structures. And their name is the ancient gnomes. This was a race of special beings that burned with a red flame towards creation.

"And now only this legend remains of them.

"Now the kids understand, here is a story about the creators of these walls, even after their death they do not stop protecting others, without setting any racial restrictions. Ygritte said instructively, pointing her fingers as best she could. From this, the children were delighted, not having the strength to close their mouths. Each brick glowed with inscriptions. And it was just mesmerizing. Since the color of the inscriptions of each brick differed from the neighboring one.

Finally, approaching the entrance to which even the hydra would have passed without any difficulties, everyone stood in line. There were already many other merchants there.

An hour later, having paid the entry fee and the toll for trading inside the city, everyone was finally able to overcome the wall, which was at least twenty meters thick. And see the city in all its glory. Many lights colored the sky, in fact, this is a protective dome. But in order not to put pressure on the inhabitants, it was decided to decorate it with eternally shimmering lights.

There were many buildings, each of them had its own style. Some looked like a whirlwind, having a large floor very narrow at the very top. Others were slanted, somewhat reminiscent of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, but many others looked no worse. It was impossible to count how many cultures were connected here. From which it was already breathtaking, imagining what it could lead to.

Jafit Mark himself imagined as an eternally living flame that cannot be extinguished. This is the spirit of this city.

- Well, it looks like we are diverging, Mark, please give the seal. Milana said reluctantly. During the campaign, she finally appreciated the guy, from which she did not want to let him go.

This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.

- Well, we'll meet again if you don't go to the village today. Mark said with a smile, shaking hands with Milana.

"And you too, little fidget." I hope next time we meet you will shake like a kitten. Having said the last words to Sena, Milana with a smile disappeared into the crowd among the endless stream.

So what do we do now, Mark?

"I think we'll start by looking for temporary housing, and then we need to find Jafit's academy. At the moment it is one of the few available sources of knowledge. If we are stuck here for a while, then it is better to understand how everything works here.

Agreeing with this idea, both began to walk looking for the image of signs. During this, they were finally able to find what they were looking for, with the help of his skill, Mark was able to read the title.

- Fuzzy Fox. Sounds like something suitable. Let's go to!

- Yes!

Upon entering, one could meet a lively atmosphere, although it was still only daylight, but half the tables were occupied by drunkards who did not restrain themselves.

Approaching the bartender, Mark asked if rooms were rented here. To this, a well-groomed man with slicked-back hair in the uniform of a servant nodded and asked to wait. Exit to the interior of the room.

A minute later, a big guy came out with the bartender, his face was like that of a bandit. But seeing those whom the bartender pointed out seemed to accuse them of a mortal crime. The man broke into a stupid smile, rubbing his hands making a bow.

- Greetings, this is the Fed Fox establishment, you can rent a room with us. The price for one day is three coppers, if you include three meals a day, the price will be in the amount of five iron coins.

What do you think Seno?

- The price, although it bites, will come down.

– We agree. Then a room for ten days.

"Hmm, then half a copper from you.

Having paid the money, the overweight man pulled out a key and a note from his pocket. After making notes, he gave out the key.

- Your room number 10 and number 11. Please take the stairs behind you to the second floor. Having indicated the direction where to look, both were able to see a spiral staircase. Nodding to him, they went on their own.

As they climbed the stairs, a notice appeared in front of both of them.

[It's time for the auction, get your Shubens ready (Chapter 17), and get ready to shell out. Opportunities and rewards await you. Time starts in 30 minutes. At the moment when you are transferred to the auction room, you will open an account for your currency. And you will finally know how much you have accumulated.]

"You saw it too. Mark asked, seeing the mute nod of the Seine, he fell into thought.

If you remember, the internal auction was created by the world itself to give the opportunity to open the wings of fledglings. But the things there were always expensive, the minimum rates were very high, and the amount of the increase when the price was raised was chosen by the employees in advance, that is, the goods after purchase could exceed the price by more than ten times from the original.

Ha, it's better to lie down and rest a little so that the body recovers. I'm afraid the first auction will be hot.
