Touring, or this new style of bike that's coming about, adventure bikes. They're a little bit cooler than touring bikes, and can in some cases fit panniers to get all of your luggage in. Some are more road oriented like the Genesis Datum, some are a little more offroad capable, like the Ridley X-Trail. It depends a lot on what you're going to be doing as to what works best for you.

Personally I'd recommend a traditional steel touring bike. While they can be kinda heavy, they're very comfortable and usually come with a very wide range of gears, and are available in drop and flat bar styles. Ridgeback make a good range of tourers with a range of pricepoints. Genesis also make a very nice tourer if flat bars is more you bag.

Alright, so touring bikes are something like road bikes but better adjusted for carrying a luggage, am I getting it right? Can it serve as a city bike as well?

Yeah, exactly. You can use them as city bikes, but then I'd say most drop bar bikes are capable of that, within reason. They wont be as well suited as a singlespped or cheap beater because the look a bit more desirable, but that's about it.

Lol you're really absolutely clueless about bikes. Touring bikes is probably what you're looking for as they designed for carrying luggage. It's a totally different way of riding, conventional but boring.
They bike depicted in the image posted above has a road bike handlebar which is very untypical for touring bikes. If you want to go for a hybrid between road and touring bike, check out the Trek 720 for instance.
