Dimensional Expedition

Chapter 56: 56. The current situation

Views:

Lu Cheng left Elena's dormitory and went directly to the camp's liaison headquarters.

The time in this world is now nine o'clock in the evening, and the liaison headquarters is still brightly lit.

The length of a day in this world has been calculated, and there are a little over twenty-five hours in total.

The appearance and geological structure of this planet are still being measured. To obtain more information, Lucheng needs to have enough energy to launch a satellite into the sky.

Lu Cheng pulled open the door curtain of the liaison headquarters, and the researchers inside who were still working overnight to make maps stood up immediately.

"Sit down, there's no need to be so formal when working here."

Lu Cheng walked straight into the liaison headquarters, where General Hubert was communicating with a researcher who understood the common language.

This researcher is Professor Lin’s assistant.

"Sir Lucheng." When General Hubert saw Lucheng coming, he performed a knight's salute of their country.

"Elena is asleep now, don't worry."

Lu Cheng came to the long table where Hubert was sitting, on which was a huge hand-drawn map.

This map was drawn with the camp as the center. During the day today, someone used a drone to survey the surrounding terrain, so the scenery within several kilometers around the camp has been drawn.

But the map outside this area can only be roughly outlined with lines, and will be supplemented when more detailed information is available.

The person who is currently providing this information is General Hubert.

"The Far South Empire, is this the largest country on this continent?"

Lu Cheng quietly looked at the area that was not drawn on the map. According to Hubert's understanding... this continent called Far South was formed around a sea called the 'Crystal Sea'.

The largest country on this continent is the Far South Empire, the name of the continent.

"That's right. Their country is located above the Crystal Sea. Our country is three kingdoms away from it, so we are fortunate not to have become their vassal state. It's just... Alas..." General Hubert couldn't continue after saying this.

Given the current size of the Kingdom of Skare, it is really hard to call it a country.

Lu Cheng did not provoke the old general any further. He took out the map Hubert had given him and compared it with the map drawn by the researcher.

Lucheng was certain that this continent called Far South was composed of several continents, and the sea they called the Crystal Sea was an inland sea.

The Far South Empire is located above the Crystal Sea, occupying almost all the land above the Crystal Sea, and they are constantly expanding downwards.

On the east side of the Crystal Sea are the Kingdom of Figgis, the Principality of Leslota, the Kingdom of Xiuenzelai, and then the Kingdom of Skarre.

The pronunciations alone are difficult to remember, so Lu Cheng just translated them into the White Sail Kingdom, the Dragon Scale Duchy, and the Gray Feather Kingdom. As for Scarlett, it can be understood as scarlet fire or red flame or something like that.

Among them, the first two countries in the east have become vassal states of the Far South Empire.

"What's the situation with Xiu Enzhe coming to the kingdom?" Lu Cheng asked.

"I'm not too sure about this. Before the blood crystal beast disaster broke out, the Kingdom of Xiu Enzhe sent an envoy to our country, hoping to request the coalition forces to repel the invaders from the Principality of Leslota and the Far South Empire, but... the king did not make any decision on this, and the disaster began." General Hubert said.

"Envoy? Is it her?" Lu Cheng opened his notebook and found a photo of a blonde girl with blue eyes that he had registered before and showed it to Hubert.

"That's right. I remember this is Nancy Xiuenzhelai, the fourth princess of the Xiuenzhelai Kingdom." General Hubert recognized the girl in the photo at a glance.

"A bunch of familiar surnames and names, but is it another princess?" Lu Cheng muttered to himself.

"Again"

General Hubert heard a very strange word.

"Don't worry about it. What kind of person is this princess?"

Lu Cheng flipped through the files recorded in his notebook. There was only some superficial information on it. As for information such as age and past work, Lu Cheng thought that he could not believe what the princess said in person.

"Are you interested in the fourth princess of Xiu Enzhelai Kingdom?"

General Hubert's voice sounded very cautious.

It feels like a father-in-law who has finally found a son-in-law he likes and is afraid that he will be taken away by an outsider.

"Interested? Forget it."

Lucheng is currently in urgent need of a large number of earth vein crystal cores. In Skarre's current condition, he can provide Lucheng with 0.1 gram to 0.2 gram of energy a day.

This amount of energy is enough to maintain the daily power supply of the camp, not to mention laying railways, digging mines and growing vegetables in this world.

Therefore, the core road city of Skarre's underground veins alone is completely insufficient.

"You want Xiu Enzhe to come to the kingdom's earth core?"

The colorful bird appeared out of nowhere. This time it learned its lesson and did not land on Lu Cheng's shoulder, but landed directly on the table.

"I can only say that I want the energy inside."

Lu Cheng told it his needs very directly. The bird named Scarlet did not sound dissatisfied at all. Instead, it seemed that it was willing to assist Lu Cheng.

"Your Holy Crystal can give us life and consciousness. If the core of the earth veins of the Xiu Enzhe Kingdom is affected by your Holy Crystal, it should be the same. The Mother of the Planet must have her purpose in awakening us and summoning you at this time." It thought for a while and continued to say to Lu Cheng, "If there is anything I can do to help, I will do my best."

"Then do you know any information about this princess? Such as her personality, situation, etc." Lu Cheng said.

"The Xiu En Zhe Lai Kingdom has not been as deeply mired in the disaster of the Blood Crystal Beast as we are. It may be difficult to convince their king."

When General Hubert heard that the Crystal Spirit had expressed its willingness to assist Lucheng, he had no choice but to help Lucheng think about how to obtain the core of the earth veins of the Kingdom of Xiuenzhelai.

"So let's start with their princess." Lu Cheng said something that made General Hubert feel a sense of déjà vu.

"As for Her Highness Nancy, my impression of her only comes from some rumors among the nobles. The nobles of the Kingdom of Xiuenzhelai seem to call her a dreamer." General Hubert said.

"Where does the name come from?"

"They tease the princess for only coming up with impossible fantasies. But she seems to be an apprentice of the Secret Society. I don't think this nickname is because the princess is too stupid." Hubert had no more information to tell Lu Cheng.

"Do you like to daydream? You seem to be a smart girl." Lu Cheng tapped the table with his fingertips, thinking about how to communicate with the princess.

Judging from the historical trajectory of the Earth, there are countless great inventors on Earth who were regarded as crazy by others before they succeeded.

When the car was first invented, some people said, "This thing will never replace the horse-drawn carriage."

"Maybe I can find a chance to contact her tomorrow." Lu Cheng said.
