Chapter 69:
The next day in Riversouth City.
Early in the morning, Link arrived at the station that he had not been to since entering school.
Today is the first day of vacation, so many people are bound to flock outside the school.
Link came here so early to catch the first bus to avoid the rush hour.
Anyway, the driverless bus is parked at a station not far from the school gate. No matter how few people are on board, it will leave as soon as it arrives.
Facts have proved that Link's decision was right.
When the first driverless bus departed on time, Link was the only passenger.
Sitting by the window, Link looked at the scenery quickly flying past outside the window, and suddenly thought of the countless moments in the past when he rushed to school and work.
He was always like this at that time, sitting by the window and staring out the window.
The scenery flying by the road never slowed him down.
And he never stopped at many moments in his life.
His steps are hurried, his expression is hurried, he is always in a hurry.
Suddenly he came to his senses, the driverless bus stopped, and the city of Reversos had arrived.
Reversos City is a completely unfamiliar place to Link.
Everything he knew about this city came from news and information from the "Forum".
Link remembers every map of the city's layout that he can find.
Even the remote alleys hidden in the nooks and crannies of the Western District, Link remembered them one by one.
But that's just a map, and it's definitely different from what's on the ground.
Today, and even throughout the holiday, Link's main task is to gain a deeper, more comprehensive, and better understanding of the wizarding world through Riversouth City.
The First Passenger Station is the station with the best conditions in the West District and the station with the most peripheral location.
All trains from Riversouth College of Biology and Medicine to Riversouth City stop here.
Exiting the first bus station is the Ring Road.
Link had already prepared a strategy. He waited for a while at the public rail transit platform in the city about thirty meters outside the bus station, and then boarded a rail transit train to the central city.
The route of this rail transit train takes the Ring City Avenue, around the West District, through Nancheng District, East District, to Beicheng District, and then directly to the Central City.
Link chose this rail transit train to take a look at it from the outside and have an intuitive overall impression of Reversos City.
The ID card issued by the college still works well in the city.
No matter where you go, as long as you take public transportation, it is free.
The purpose of Link's trip was very clear, that is, to take a quick tour of the five urban areas to get a general understanding.
The reason why we go to the central city first is because the central city is neither a commercial area nor an industrial area, but an administrative area where management agencies are concentrated.
Link must first find a place to get a resident identity certificate for use in the city.
Although the college's ID card can be used in the city, it also has inconveniences.
That would expose the identity of the new blood of Storm Sea, and make them easy to be ripped off when they are consumed in many places.
Hmm...
it could be being ripped off in an economic sense, or it could be being ripped off in a physical sense.
Just like in the Harry Potter world, some of the dark wizards hanging out in Knockturn Alley and the Death Eaters who kill people and set fires everywhere have either graduated from or dropped out of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Human beings have never stopped killing each other!
Looking out through the glass window of the rail transit train, Link discovered that there were very few high-rise buildings in Reversos City along the way.
Except for the extremely conspicuous and towering spire that stands in the center of the entire city, the height of other buildings generally does not exceed five stories.
Link estimated that even a first-class wizard apprentice would not be killed if he jumped from this height.
Perhaps this design is for safety reasons?
It may also be due to airspace control or other reasons that Link currently cannot access.
The distance between each building is also very wide. There is enough space to park transportation vehicles in front of the door, back door, left door and right door.
These larger open spaces can naturally be used to assemble or evacuate crowds, and to set up attack or defense facilities.
Just like the academy, intelligent law enforcement puppets with both surveillance and security functions are also scattered throughout the city.
Especially in central urban areas, the density is extremely high, making it almost impossible to have blind spots for surveillance.
On the surface, the safety factor of Reversos City is by no means low.
Not long after, the rail transit train arrived at the station.
The towering main tower of Riversouth City's Intelligent Management Center, the tallest building in Riversouth City, is not far from the site, right in front of Link's eyes.
The total tower is about 150 meters high. The overall shape is like a smaller version of Guangzhou's waistline. It has a curved steel frame structure and a large glass curtain wall, showing a graceful and beautiful temperament.
It is said that the person who designed and presided over the construction of this tower was the only granddaughter of the great sage Rivo and the great sage Soth.
It is extremely difficult for wizards, especially high-level wizards, to reproduce their bloodline.
Therefore, what if the one who is extremely favored by the great sage Rivo and the great sage Soth does not match the overall temperament of the college and the city?
It will be built as promised, and no one will dare to object.
Link looked up and without looking further, walked into the main tower's first-floor hall.
The place for applying for ID documents is located on the south side of the hall, where there are several smart devices.
Unmanned and paperless offices are already extremely common phenomena in the wizarding world that Link has been exposed to so far.
Link operated the smart instrument and quickly entered his identity information into it according to the prompts.
After a moment, a Rivosos City resident identification certificate was spit out from a card slot of the smart device.
The appearance of the resident ID card is no different from the college ID card.
The only difference between the two is the location displayed after being scanned by the smart instrument.
One shows Riversouth City, and the other shows Riversouth College (abbreviation).
Link got his resident ID card. From then on, as long as he didn't expose himself and people didn't know him, it would be impossible to tell whether he was a local apprentice or a new blood from the Storm Sea.
Considering that a frontal "photo" of himself was widely circulated on the college "forum", Link used makeup to disguise himself.
In addition, Link also changed his hairstyle and dressing style.
On campus, Link always wore school uniforms in the early and middle stages, and casual clothes and cloaks in the later stages.
Now, Link is wearing formal attire.
Not even wearing a cloak.
The cloak is fine for use on campus, but it doesn't work well after entering the city.
After leaving the main tower, Link strolled around the small central city.
It was still early and the streets and alleys were quiet. Except for some vehicles parked on the roadside, there were almost no people.
Link walked through several major management agencies, such as the City Hall, City Defense Bureau, Finance Bureau, and Security Bureau one by one. After getting familiar with the place, he took the rail transit train and left the central city.
Next stop, Beicheng District.
