No matter how much you envy you, it can't solve your stomach problem.
Lucian was lost in thought for a while watching the illusion, then he found a seat and sat down, and ordered the cheapest plain noodles.
Waiting for the time for Somian to finish, he continued to watch the news played on the magic illusion projector.
After the news was broadcast, the picture in the illusion changed, and a picture of someone high in the sky appeared.
At the bottom of the picture is a city that covers a vast area and looks very majestic.
Lucian recognized it at a glance. This city was Wimbledon, the capital of the Candela Empire.
Regarding this great capital city of the empire, Lucian has never visited it in person, but he often sees it in various phantom news, so he is naturally very familiar with it.
Being able to recognize places that you have never been to is so familiar that you can recognize it at a glance. This is something that people of Lucian's parents' generation never dared to think about before.
Take Lucian's parents as an example. The farthest place they have been to in their lives is the third largest city in the province, which is about fifty kilometers away from his hometown. Apart from that, not to mention Wimbledon. , I have never even been to the provincial capital.
If nothing changes in this world, they will just be like Lucian's grandparents, who have never left their hometown all their lives and know almost nothing about the outside world.
However, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce invented the magic signal transmission network and the magic illusion projector, and the Crescent Chamber of Commerce produced various corresponding magic illusion programs, so that people like them who have never left their hometowns in their lives can understand this without leaving home. world.
It was precisely because of watching those programs about "education" that Lucian's parents made up their mind to struggle that their family could not purchase all kinds of new household magic machines every year like their neighbors' families did, and their life was very difficult. Lucian will also be sent to Philip Academy to study.
Therefore, Lucian has always been very grateful to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Crescent Chamber of Commerce for giving him the opportunity to leave the isolated mountain village in his hometown, go outside and see the world with his own eyes, and have the opportunity to change his entire life.
In conjunction with the picture on the illusion, it showed a picture overlooking Wimbledon City from a high altitude, and a voice-over also sounded.
"The Imperial Royal Guard recently publicly displayed a batch of new small magic attack boats they purchased from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. It is reported that these small magic attack boats were successfully developed by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce three years ago and represent the most advanced technology at present. The magic airship has a maximum speed of more than 400 kilometers per hour. It also has extremely flexible maneuverability and good firepower. Equipped with these new small magic attack boats, the aerial combat effectiveness of the Imperial Royal Guard is undoubtedly. This has been a significant improvement to the safety and security of Wimbledon..."
Suddenly there was a burst of cheers in the noodle shop.
Lucian was startled and glanced around the noodle shop, noting whether it was the owner of the noodle shop or the people dining there. At this time, they were all looking at the magic illusion projector on the wall, with excitement on their faces.
"Haha, great! With this thing, the Royal Guards will be much stronger than before."
"That's right. I've heard of this thing. It's said to be the most advanced magic airship of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. It flies so fast that you can't even see your shadow in the blink of an eye."
"Really? But the news said that its firepower is only good. I'm afraid..."
"You are stupid, how can you tell the truth completely in the news? This is a highly confidential matter related to our empire's military strength. Can you let others know it casually?"
"Yeah. That's right. According to that..."
…
Listening to the discussions among the people around him, Lucian twitched the corners of his mouth and revealed a wry smile.
These guys don't understand anything at all, so why are they so excited here
It has been clearly stated in the news that these small magic attack boats were successfully developed by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce three years ago.
So within the next three years, even if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has not completed the research and development of the new generation of magic airships, there will definitely be newer technologies that will definitely be able to easily defeat these small magic attack boats.
Besides, these things are not the latest technology and the strongest combat effectiveness among the offensive magic airships mastered by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, like those that are known as the strongest air combat effectiveness. The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's Thor-class heavy-duty magic battleship, which has never been sold to outsiders, is the real air supremacy.
According to gossip, in the internal drills of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the woven Thor-class heavy magic combat craft can control the air very easily. Any other type of combat magic airship is powerless against it.
Therefore, as long as other forces do not have the same air power as the Thor-class heavy magic battleship, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce will inevitably have air supremacy forever.
Now everyone on this continent knows that in the new war model, mastering air superiority is equivalent to mastering the initiative, which plays a vital role in determining the outcome of the war.
Of course, these only exist in imagination and exercises.
In fact, it is now on the Sainz continent. No country or force would go out of their way to go against the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, or even start a war.
Because this is completely asking for death.
So Lucian was quite speechless when he saw the people around him getting excited because the Royal Guards were equipped with a batch of small magic attack boats.
Even if the combat effectiveness of the Royal Guards and even the entire Candela Empire army has been greatly improved, if you give the big shots in the empire ten courages, will they dare to start a war with the New Flying Chamber of Commerce
You said you would not challenge the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, but instead start a war with other countries
Don't be kidding, since Xu Yi, the president of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, issued the famous "Bangta Declaration" in Bangta City ten years ago, he proposed that the goal is to go to the stars and the sea, thus determining that the purpose of Sainz Continent in the future is to vigorously develop magic. After industrialization, no country would still think about launching a war.
The primary reason is that once a country wants to do this, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce Guards will directly intervene and not allow the war to expand.
The second reason is that during the critical period when the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has opened up magic industry-related technologies on a large scale and is working hard to help all countries on the continent develop magic industry, if any country irrationally starts a war, it will inevitably Being eliminated by this era, it eventually fell far behind other countries.
No country dares to take this risk, not even the Candela Empire.
Therefore, the Royal Guard suddenly announced that it has equipped a batch of small magic attack boats. In the eyes of many people, it has enhanced the strength of the Royal Guard and the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Army. However, people like Lucian have a certain understanding of the situation of the mainland's magic industry. From a human perspective, it may only be used to maintain the internal stability of the empire.
After all, it was mentioned in the news some time ago that there were several riots within the empire, which attracted the attention of the Imperial Parliament.
The Royal Guard announced this news, perhaps to scare these rioters.
While people around were still talking about it, the owner of the noodle shop did not stop what he was doing and quickly brought over the bowl of plain noodles that Lucian ordered.
Lucian was already very hungry at this time, so he ignored the comments of the people around him that sounded very ridiculous to him and started eating.
While eating, he raised his head from time to time to look at what was playing on the magic illusion projector and listened to the sounds coming from inside.
After broadcasting some current affairs news, some news about people's livelihood was broadcast next.
Lucian generally doesn't care much about these people's livelihood news, because most of them have little to do with him, and he has no interest in this area.
However, when the entertainment news was playing, he couldn't help but raise his head and watch for a while, because this part of the entertainment news included his favorite elf star, Miss Rinoya.
Looking up at Miss Linoya in the magical illusion, who was as beautiful as a flower, with a noble temperament and a hint of lightness, as if she didn't seem like a human being in the world, Lucian couldn't help showing a hint of intoxication.
The Crescent Chamber of Commerce has made many celebrities famous through various magic illusion entertainment programs, but Lucian didn't care about these so-called celebrities who had nothing to do with his life before. Only when he saw Miss Rinoa, he seemed to be moved all of a sudden. It caught his heart and he couldn't help but pay attention.
However, Lucian also knew very well that the worlds of him and Miss Linoya were too far apart, and there was a possibility that they would never have any intersection in this life, so he could only look at her through the magical illusion, and he was already satisfied. .
After the news about Miss Rinoa had passed, Lucian came back to his senses. He lowered his head and found that the human uncle sitting opposite him was looking at him with a smile. He couldn't help but blush, and he quickly lowered his head and started eating. Come face to face.
Because he was eating in a hurry, he didn't notice that the noodle soup was still very hot. He choked immediately and sprayed a mouthful of juice on the table. He looked as embarrassed as he could.
Lucian finally calmed down and found that his body was already covered in noodle soup, the table was even more messy, and his face was even redder.
The uncle opposite didn't mind much, he just shook his head, smiled gently, took a piece of tablecloth and handed it to Lucian.
Lucian quickly thanked him and hurriedly cleared away the mess on the table.
"Looking at you, you should still be a student in the academy, right?" After Lucian sat down again, the uncle asked with a smile.
"Huh? How did you tell?" Lucian was stunned.
The uncle chuckled: "The more you experience, the easier it will be to see things. This is not surprising.'
After finishing speaking, the uncle actually lowered his head and continued eating noodles without any intention of continuing to speak.
Lucian scratched his head, not sure why.
Because of the little accident just now, Lucian found that he couldn't eat his bowl of noodles at all, so he had to call the boss to pay the bill.
"This guest, please give me fifteen silver coins. Thank you."
The boss's kind smile fell into Lucian's eyes, but he couldn't help but curse in his heart.
It's just a bowl of plain noodles, and it costs fifteen silver coins. It's really deceiving.
The same bowl of noodles in his hometown only costs two silver coins at most!
But thinking that this was Doral City, Lucian could only sigh helplessly and put his hand into his pocket.
Then his expression changed drastically. (~^~)
