In fact, Du Feng didn't quite understand this design. Why was the more central the place, the more desolate it was? In theory, the Sacred City was the center of power in the Realm of the Gods. Shouldn't this position be at the highest end?
If the people inside the high wall wanted to go out, they had to pass through this bridge. Although this bridge was fine now, when the people inside the high wall walked out, it wouldn't be the same. The seawater below would surge like a huge wave in the sea.
Of course, huge waves were normal in the vast ocean, but in such a narrow moat, it was too abnormal. Imagine what it would be like if a huge wave was concentrated in a narrow place. There was only one result, and that was to concentrate and explode upwards.
That's right, one of the tests to pass was to accept the impact of the waves. Receiving the impact from the sea on top of a narrow moat was really something new. The impact was so strong that 70% of the people couldn't bear it.
Most of the people who passed the previous tests were already exhausted, and they were directly sent flying out of the bridge by the wave. Then the force of the falling wave would sweep them away, and they would disappear into the water. As long as they fell, no one had ever come back up alive.
In fact, even if the bearded man didn't introduce it, Du Feng also felt that this place was a bit strange. Because he had already smelled it and knew that the water in this moat was seawater.
"Then do you know how the seawater came here?"
Since the bearded man was so enthusiastic, he might as well take the opportunity to ask him some more questions. In fact, Du Feng didn't really expect him to answer. But he didn't expect that he really knew.
"Hahaha, you asked the right person. My ancestors participated in the construction of the moat."
The bearded man's face was full of glory when he talked about his ancestors. Of course, he was qualified to participate in this black market auction, so his family must have a certain foundation. In fact, their short stature and long beards belonged to a special race.
The dwarfs in the Mortal World belonged to the dwarfs, and the dwarfs in the Realm of the Gods belonged to the dwarf gods. Of course, the dwarf gods were also a member of the god race, and not a rising star like Shangguan Yun, but a kind of primitive god race.
The biggest characteristic of the dwarf gods was that they were good at manual work. They were good at building cities, building river embankments, making traps, and so on. The construction of the moat was basically done by the Dwarf God Race, which was why Big Beardy knew so much about it.
He was not afraid of divulging the secrets of the Sacred City. He actually talked about the structure of the bottom of the moat with Du Feng in detail. It was said that there were 999 tunnels down there, all connected to the deep sea. None of the passageways were thick, so there wouldn't be any large sea monsters or sea beasts coming over. Furthermore, each tunnel was equipped with several layers of fences. Every five kilometers, there would be a layer of fence. Moreover, every layer of the fence was very sturdy. Even a merman would find it difficult to break it.
So many fences were set up to effectively prevent some small Murlocs from slipping over to cause trouble. However, Big Beardy did not explain why the Sacred City had to bring in the Divine Water. He said that even the ancestors did not know about this. They were only responsible for the work.
But even with so many fences, there were still some small fish and shrimps swimming over, and some were simply washed over. When they were washed over, they were still small fish and shrimps. However, after swimming to the moat, after a period of growth, they became big fish and shrimps. In the end, they could not go back.
After a long time, there began to be some sea creatures in the moat, and they were still reproducing there.
"I understand. The purpose of building this moat is to eat seafood."
Only Du Feng could say something like this. They had spent so much effort to build 999 tunnels from the Divine Sea to the Sacred City just to eat seafood. If it was to eat seafood, why not just teleport to the Divine Sea, catch a few fish, and teleport back?
"Your idea is really novel. We really did not think of it."
Back then, the Dwarf God Race was in charge of building this moat. They had thought a lot about it, but they did not expect that the big shots in the city wanted to eat seafood. After all, they could not leave the Sacred City as they pleased. Even teleportation was not convenient. Of course, eating seafood was not the only reason for building the moat, but it might really be one of them.
"I'm just joking. Don't take it seriously."
Du Feng chuckled awkwardly. Actually, he regretted it as soon as he said it. It was too childish. Besides him, who else would be so greedy? The seniors in the City Lord's Residence were all members of the God Race who had lived for hundreds of millions of years. How could they be greedy for such small things?
The 999 tunnels were not built randomly. They were built according to a certain shape and order. When the tide rose, the seawater in so many tunnels would spiral and accelerate. The power accumulated was quite terrifying. Perhaps they were just using the tide to store energy for some of the mechanisms in the Sacred City. Or perhaps it was part of the city's defense.
Although the Sacred City was the noblest place in the God Realm, and the pseudo-divine beasts were also controlled by the seniors of the God Race. But the defense here still needed to be set up, and it had to be the highest standard in the entire God Realm. Because the previous God Realm base had been destroyed by the extraterrestrial demons. Actually, the so-called extraterrestrial demons referred to one kind of plane invaders.
This layer of the universe was surrounded by the God Race. Even demonic cultivators and meditation cultivators who reached the highest realm would become demonic gods. To put it bluntly, they would still join the God Race.
But some universes were not like this. They were dominated by the Demon Race. No matter if you were a human, an immortal, or a ghost, you would become a demon when you reached the highest realm. Entering the Way with the Demon Race, proving the Way with the Demon Race, and becoming a demon was the highest faith. Their faith conflicted greatly with this side. Hence, there had been a war between the two different planes.
That war was a billion years ago. It was that war that led to the destruction of the previous God Realm base. They had to build a new one.
Du Feng's Little Realm King Blade was picked up from the previous God Realm's encampment. At that time, not to mention the World Kings, even many God Emperors and God Emperors died. Hence, in order to deal with such a war, the new Sacred City was built more firmly. Also, they changed the previous method and left the center empty.
Du Feng seemed to understand a little. The position inside the high walls in the center of the city was likely a trap. The extraterrestrial demons probably had some kind of method to directly teleport to the center of the Sacred City and directly break through from there.
And this time, the center was left empty to make them fall for it. Then, they would use the tide energy and the power of the array to annihilate them in one fell swoop. Although he did not know if his guess was right, Du Feng still felt that such a design was well-thought-out.
