Chapter 414： Arrive at Wangcheng

Chapter 414 Arriving at the Royal City

The next day.

Early in the morning, after Chen Lun got up and washed, he asked Golov to check out the hotel room, and immediately left Guangming Town with all the cadres.

The group rented a large carriage again and headed towards the royal city Tourmaline Kloster.

The journey was boring, and Alex volunteered to act as a condiment, singing ballads hard, playing with accordion, harmonica and flute in turn, and Antonio couldn't control his desire to sing, humming and chirping along with the melody. The blue veins were exposed, and the eyes kept rolling, which caused everyone to laugh again and again.

at dusk.

Maggie saw the majestic and majestic high walls of the royal city from a distance through the car window.

"Here we are! We have arrived at the Royal City!"

she said excitedly.

The other cadres also showed curiosity and anticipation, looking forward from the opened curtain. Everyone present has lived in Cuisul Empire for so many years. Although they all know that there is such a heart city, they have never been there.

Now, they finally arrived at the core city of the empire, Tourmaline Kloster.

In the eyes of everyone, the high wall stands on a huge mountain range, ivory white, neat and tall, even glowing with holy golden light in the light of the setting sun.

Dozens of symmetrical minarets are built on top of the high wall, and a golden flag is planted on the top of each tower, fluttering in the wind and hunting. On that flag was painted a huge sun face, solemn and solemn, this was exactly the pattern of the sun royal family.

The layout of the royal city is divided into three layers, the central area, the upper urban area and the lower urban area. Each area is built according to the height of the mountain. The core and most important central area is located on the top of the mountain.

So the royal city that everyone sees is actually like a mountain full of various buildings.

The carriage drove along the main road, and soon came to a huge square "at the foot of the mountain". It has a very meaningful name, the rising square, which means the place where the sun shines when the sun rises, that is, before entering the royal city The first checkpoint is convenient for residents' activities, and it can stop travelers and carriages entering and leaving the royal city for a short time.

Golov drove the carriage, crossed the crowds, and came to the steps deep in the square. The spacious and huge white marble road slanted upwards, leading to a huge arch at the end.

On both sides of the bottom of the steps are huge fortress walls, making the steps like a canyon crack between two mountains. Countless statues of heroes who have made outstanding contributions to the Trisur Empire in the past stand in the center of the steps and are arranged in a straight line. At first glance, there are no less than fifty statues.

Teams of well-dressed, armored imperial guards, armed with spears and large shields, patrolled up and down the steps. Their cloaks were painted with sun faces, fully enclosed helmet tops, and long golden feathers, swaying in the wind , mighty.

KaKa…

The dense greaves stepped on the stone steps, making a dull sound.

Chen Lun looked at these guards from the car window and nodded secretly. Although they are not extraordinary, they have also taken extraordinary potions or received some mysterious blessings, and their physical fitness is different from ordinary people.

Combined with daily training, this group of heavily armored guards has the strength of one against ten.

Although they are all holding cold weapons, in fact, each guard is carrying two flintlock guns. If you take it for granted that they are easy to bully, you will only die miserably.

In his previous life, Chen Lun often saw those players who were trying to die, being shot into a sieve by random guns.

After being checked by the imperial guards and registration personnel in Chusheng Square, the carriage that Chen Lun was riding in passed the inspection smoothly, went straight up the carriageway along the steps, crossed the arch, and successfully entered the interior of Tourmaline Kloster.

"This is the lower part of Wangcheng?"

Maggie looked at the scenery outside the window curiously, and asked aloud.

"It feels like this place is so prosperous... Hey, that carriage is really strange, it can move without a horse pulling it!"

Everyone looked at what she said, and saw an open retro steam car passing by on the street. The driver was sitting on the front of the car with a curved steering wheel, and a middle-class couple was sitting on the back seat of the sofa.

At the rear of the car, there are two trumpet-shaped air nozzles. With the rotation of the bottom machine and gears, thick white gas is ejected from the rear of the car.

"I... I seem to have seen it in a magazine. It should be a 'steam car', a product developed by a company in Wangcheng two years ago, and it was also displayed at the Empire Expo. It does not need horses, it only needs to burn coal to drive... But I heard it's expensive."

Connie said suddenly.

Others looked at her in surprise, which made her quite embarrassed.

With a smile on his face, Chen Lun quietly admired the scenery outside the window...Steam cars, rail trains, vending machines, street theater and hawkers on bicycles, all kinds of urban features that are completely different from other regions are revealed.

Reminiscence flashed in his eyes. When he first came to Wangcheng in his previous life, he was quite surprised. Not only was the level of technological development here high, but there were also many black technology products that did not even exist in real life.

The residents here come from all over the world, but most of them live a prosperous life. Even ordinary people in the lower city have a good life. The most important point is that the law and order here is perfect, and the crime rate is frighteningly low.

But this is also normal, not only the Sun Royal Family is here, but also the headquarters of the asylum and the branches of the seven righteous **** churches are all concentrated in one place. Except for some "ignorant" ordinary criminals, any extraordinary person with a normal mind dare not Make a mistake here.

"Mr. Jack, where are we going now?"

Golov's voice came from outside the curtain of the carriage.

Chen Lun looked at everyone with curiosity and anticipation, thought for a while and said:

"Let's go to the central area at the top. Let's first settle down at the stronghold of the Generous Council...The upper and lower urban areas are huge, and we won't leave the royal city for a short time. In the future, you will have more time to go shopping."

"Yes, Captain."

Golov responded respectfully, and immediately yelled at the horse and cracked his whip.

One thing that makes Wangcheng different from other cities is that the road signs and guides are very well done. Not only are there huge direction and location notices, but there are even special personnel hired by the local government to be on duty 24 hours a day at the information booth.

Golov didn't need to stop to ask for directions, he knew how to go.

Roller…

The carriage drove through the street, and after seven turns and eight turns, it came to a huge circular square. This is the second square of Tourmaline Kloster, the Rising Sun Square. In addition to supporting large-scale activities in the lower city, it has another function.

That's the super-large elevator!

From the lower urban area to the upper urban area, the height difference is nearly 100 meters apart. If you take the main road, you need to climb seven times around the mountain, and the journey is quite long.

So this "big elevator" in Sunrise Plaza provides enough convenience.

Every half hour, it goes back and forth, and travelers, businessmen and residents in need can ride for free.

This is what Chen Lun told Golov in advance, otherwise he would never have known that there is such a huge man-made project in Wangcheng, which can be called a spectacle and a miracle.

When Chen Lun and his party arrived at the large elevator, it was only a few minutes before the start of the next round. Soon the circular support plate in the center of Rising Sun Square was lifted up, revealing a thick cylindrical bearing shaft underneath, and countless large and small The gears rotated, accompanied by a huge bang bang sound, and steam came out from dozens of jets on the edge of the support plate.

There are more than a dozen carriages and hundreds of pedestrians traveling here.

The rising speed of the supporting plate is not slow, which is equivalent to the elevator in Chen Lun's previous life.

After arriving in Shangcheng District, the carriage was inspected again, this time more strictly, not only the identity certificate was inspected, but also a special questioning.

Fortunately, after Chen Lun showed the documents of the generous parliament and his own badge of the consul, he was not pestered too much... Even the three civil servants stood up from their chairs in shock and saluted repeatedly to express their apologies.

Even in Wangcheng, where rich and powerful businessmen are rampant, Chen Lun's status is still the top big shot, and they are extremely rare.

The top leaders of the Seven Great Orthodox God Churches!

Lord Jack Speight, one of the ten consuls of the Senate of the Generous Parliament!

Chen Lun didn't waste time with them, and after lightly expressing his affirmation of their serious attitude towards work, he was escorted a certain distance by several imperial guards in full armor.

While the carriage didn't stop, we continued to set off from Shangcheng District and headed to a higher place along the main road.

The residents of the upper city are generally middle class and wealthy businessmen. Here are the most famous industries and companies in the empire, and the headquarters are basically located here.

The bustling level of the street has risen to a higher level compared to the downtown area. There are many high-rise buildings here, and huge and high-end billboards abound.

Connecting to the central area are eight straight steps from all directions.

After another rigorous review, the carriage finally entered the core area of ​​Tourmaline Kloster, the central area.

The first thing that catches the eye is the "Fire Pattern Square" covered with carved patterns.

This is the place where the Sun Royal Family issued decrees and some important events. The annual Empire Celebration Day will also be held here.

Now there are only more than 20 days until the celebration day, and the officials have already started preparations. Basic wooden high platforms have been built in many areas, and some guards are patrolling back and forth.

In the southeast, northwest, and southeast directions of Huowen Square, there is a church area, corresponding to the Church of the Seven Orthodox Gods. The castle of the Sun Royal Family is located in the north, on the highest point of the mountain, and the huge golden palace can be seen from a very long distance.

The headquarters building of the Imperial Asylum is not far below the palace, like a dedicated bodyguard.

"Mr. Jack, the branch of the Generous Council is in the east... It seems that it used to belong to the church area of ​​the Red Apple Church. After the handover, it seems that it is still undergoing renovation."

Golov said to the carriage while driving the carriage.

"Well, the building left behind by the Red Apple Church naturally needs to be replaced, but it's been two months, why hasn't it been completed yet?"

Chen Lun frowned slightly.

He accepted the transfer order of the Generous Council, and came to Wangcheng to serve as the head of the branch under the instruction of the Speaker Azgilro. The relevant information has long been known.

According to estimates, the renovation of the Generous Council’s residence should have been completed in the middle of last month. Why is it still working?

Chen Lun listened to the tinkling sound in his ears, his eyes were deep.

*

*

*

Residence of the King City of the Generous Council.

The original Gothic church style has changed drastically, and it has become a square and solemn lobby. Except for the main building, which has basically completed the renovation, the rest of the buildings are still under construction.

Dozens of hundreds of workers were busy, and many "believers" gathered in the lobby.

These residents come from all walks of life, including dignitaries in the central area, and ordinary people in the lower area, but most of them are businessmen in the upper area...Because the Generous Council, as the new Orthodox Church, is promoting the "Contract Witness" Kang La Your Majesty will guarantee the absolute fairness of the contract, and severely punish those who violate the contract.

The attraction of this to the merchant group is tantamount to huge.

"...I can see your devotion to the 'God of the Contract'. He will protect everyone who abides by the contract, and severely punish those who break the contract to obtain benefits by any means!"

On the bulletin board in the lobby, a middle-aged man in a black windbreaker wearing glasses was holding the Generous Parliament Bible "Justice Document" and said to the believers in the audience.

There were two young men in the same black clothes standing under the stage. A donation box was placed in front of them, and believers were constantly coming forward to put coins in... There were even wealthy businessmen who directly threw bank vouchers, the amount ranging from hundreds of gold Pounds, as many as thousands.

"Two days ago, an uptown resident came to the Church of Generosity and explained to me in the confessional that he had deceived others in a business deal when he was young...he feared that his sin would be punished by the 'God of the Covenant' liquidation."

The man in black with glasses said in a deep voice.

There was a commotion under the stage.

The faces of the believers were horrified, because many of them had violated the contract. But no one dared to tell their dark history here, and they even chose to forget about it.

Double standards are the root of human inferiority, neither wanting others to violate the contract, nor admitting one’s own fault.

Seeing the appearance of this group of believers, the corners of the man in black glasses raised his mouth slightly, and then ordered someone to drag over a large golden wine glass, which contained a transparent and clear liquid.

"But you don't have to worry, this is the 'Holy Water of Atonement' from the Generous Council. You only need to drink a cup, and your past sins will be wiped away... After all, you have never heard the gospel of our Lord before this, and now this is for you Opportunity."

When a believer asked whether the atonement holy water would cost money to buy, the man in black and glasses shook his head.

"It is my lord's generosity to give you the opportunity to redeem your sins. Naturally, you will not charge any fees, which is a blasphemy to your lord... However, if you are convinced that your sins are serious, you can also donate as a reward to your lord .”

"Thank you for your answer, Father Brendan."

An obese wealthy businessman wiped the sweat from his forehead, and respectfully prayed a generous parliamentary prayer, that is, raised his hands to his chest, and then patted his left chest lightly in the order of first left and then right.

"I...I want to drink a glass of 'Holy Water of Atonement', Father."

Brendan, a man in black and glasses, smiled and raised his hand.

"Sure, please."

The fat rich businessman stepped forward with a big belly, took the "Holy Water of Atonement" poured by a man in black, and drank it. Although it was colorless and tasteless like ordinary drinking water, he seemed to feel his body and soul, as if being trapped The wash was average.

He let out a long breath, seemed to be relieved, and laughed happily.

Immediately, the fat rich businessman took out an Imperial Bank voucher without hesitation, and put it in the donation box.

"Twelve hundred gold pounds, thank you Lord for my forgiveness and redemption."

he said reverently.

Father Brendan looked pleased and nodded appreciatively.

Other believers saw this, and many people came forward to ask for the "Holy Water of Atonement", and then they looked relieved like fat and rich businessmen, and finally made donations.

The people in the front all do this, but the people behind are really embarrassed and just leave like this.

But at this moment, a man in black hurried to Father Brendan's side, tilted his head and said in a low voice:

"Member Brendan, the consul Jack of the Senate is here."

"?!"

Brendan's pupils shrunk.

He immediately calmed down his shortness of breath, thinking flashed in his eyes.

"How could it be so fast... But forget it, anyway, we are only temporarily managing this church. Now that he is here, we will hand it over to him... It's a pity that we can't earn more gold pounds."

Headache recurred today, only one chapter left, beauties
