Chapter 599: 193. Mysterious Exploration

Suman Archipelago, Inner Circle, City of Suman.

This is a vast city built on six islands. The islands are connected by magical bridges constructed with Earth Rock magic.

The entire city is divided into districts based on the islands.

Six islands, corresponding to six districts.

Four of the districts are mixed living areas with commercial and residential functions.

The other two districts are the harbor district and the trade district.

The harbor district is based on Suman Port, with numerous docks and warehouses of various sizes, connected to the core circle and inner and outer circles of the Suman Archipelago, and also connected to the southern coast of the Kashel Continent to the north and the northern coast of the Spinning Continent to the south.

The trade district is the destination of Noland Lee’s trip.

It is adjacent to the harbor district, separated from Suman Port by a sea surface with a width of more than 7,000 meters, with countless ships coming and going.

In the City of Suman, wizards can only cast certain spells – anti-theft and anti-robbery shield spells and disguise spells, but still cannot use flight spells and offensive spells.

However, once they leave the range of the City of Suman and enter other areas of the inner circle, wizards can use flight spells.

The current time is the third day of arrival at the Suman Archipelago, early morning.

Noland Lee and Denise Green took the flying disc from the core circle to the edge of the inner circle, landed on the special berth for public magic vehicles, and not far from there was a magic taxi waiting to provide travel services.

Thanks to the rich magical atmosphere in the Suman Archipelago, all magic taxis have realized unmanned driving and automatic navigation. If you want to enjoy the service of a personal driver, you have to go to a magic car rental company for customization.

Since there is no need to deal with the driver, why not? Noland Lee took Denise Green onto the magic taxi and called out the destination using the Ulnas Circle language.

The magic taxi started smoothly, hovering half a meter above the ground, and traveled steadily along the designated driving lanes on the ground.

The buildings in the inner circle of the Suman Archipelago inherit the style of the Ulnas Circle. Stone houses, pointed roofs, arched doors and windows, deep red wooden beams, and gray tiled stone walls.

The magic taxi carried the two Noland Lee through the bustling streets and arrived at the trade center of the Suman Archipelago within twenty minutes after leaving.

In the world before Noland Lee crossed, this place would be equivalent to the central business district of a provincial capital city. There are many tall buildings like high-rises, and the streets between the buildings are crowded with people.

Most of the pedestrians on the street wear magic robes, but this does not mean that they are all wizards. Due to the “constant temperature” magic feature of the robes, ordinary people will also buy a set for themselves in the hot Suman Archipelago.

Noland Lee took Denise Green to avoid the crowd, went up the stepstone, and entered the Island Exchange, which specializes in trading islands.

The Suman Archipelago generally extends from east to west and consists of 12,000,000 isles with a total area of over 15,000,000 square kilometers, extending approximately 8,000 kilometers along the equator and a maximum width of more than 4,000 kilometers from north to south.

The core circle of the Suman Archipelago is located at the westernmost part of the archipelago, occupying more than 300 isles in the westernmost part of the entire archipelago. The core circle is completely controlled by Hotams. None of the isles in the core circle are for sale.

The inner circle of the Suman Archipelago is on the outskirts of the core circle, occupying about 1,000 isles to the east of the core circle.

Further east of the inner circle is the boundless outer circle of the archipelago. A total of more than 11.8 million isles are all within the outer circle.

The staggering number of outer circle isles does not mean they are unowned.

The Ulnas Circle discovered the Suman Archipelago more than 500 years ago. To date, all isles have been claimed. The majority of them are held by wizard forces and ancient families who built the core circle and inner circle back then.

These ancient forces have established magical eco-farms, magic workshops, academies, trade stations, ports, and other magical facilities in the inner and outer circles.

Starting from the westernmost core circle of the entire Suman Archipelago, the population density decreases as one goes eastward.

Noland Lee is buying an island, which means he is trading with these powerful forces with a long history.

In the grand hall of the Island Exchange, the shiny and smooth marble floor reflects the skylight, and Noland Lee and Denise Green enter the guest room for the negotiation of island purchases under the guidance of the magic servant.

After sitting for a while in the guest room with a soft carpet, the witch acting as a salesperson came in through the door.

“Sir, Madam, good day.”

The salesperson is a female witch, a four-circled deep-sea wizard, not a combat wizard.

From her water-blue magic robe’s breastplate, her name is Nelly.

After Nelly entered the room, she briefly introduced herself, and then summoned a liquid sandbox with deep-sea magic, simulating a distribution map of the outer circle isles of the Suman Archipelago.

On this three-dimensional simulation distribution map, the isles that have been sold or cannot be sold are marked in light gray.

Isles that are for sale are marked in green.

The color difference makes Noland Lee and Denise Green directly feel how popular the Suman Archipelago is.

The available islands for sale only account for one-twentieth of the total amount, and most islands have already stopped circulation.

Nelly introduced that there are currently about 5,000 isles listed for trading.

Isles for sale are mainly located in the easternmost part of the Suman Archipelago, which is the farthest place from the core circle.

The east-west span of the Suman Archipelago reaches an astonishing 8,000 kilometers. Even if one tries hard to travel using a flight spell from the core circle to the easternmost part, it would take dozens of hours.
