"Stop and say who you are"
Outside the Golden Town, Wang Lu and his party were blocked by guards.
Two guards in light armor and armed with spears folded their blades in front of the car. Although in front of the Nightmare Beast, the two mortal guards blocked it like a mantis holding a chariot, but the guards' posture was extremely firm.
"Hmph, I haven't lost the vigor of the past." Aya in the car nodded secretly.
The people of the King of Knights should inherit the spirit of knights, be humble and not inferior, and maintain their posture even in the face of opponents who are far above them. Now it seems that although the kingdom of knights has perished, the spirit of knights is still handed down.
"ridiculous."
Regarding this, Wang Lu just shook his head, then got out of the car and came in front of the guards.
"You two, we are travelers from the eastern city-state." Wang Lu said in the common language of Western Yi that is as proficient as the locals, "We are definitely not any suspicious people."
The guards remained vigilant: "Do you have any proof documents?"
Like many countries in the mainland of Kyushu, people need road guides to prove their identity when migrating. Some countries in the Western Yi Continent also have similar regulations, especially the countries under the rule of the Holy Light Cult. Like Wang Lu and his party, heretics from the Kyushu Continent must be extra careful. This is the duty of the guards, even if Wang Lu and the others are obviously very skilled.
Wang Lu smiled: "Certifying documents? Of course there are."
As he said that, Wang Lu took out a cloth bag from his waist, and the inside of the bag jingled.
"Please check carefully, the document is absolutely reliable."
"Hey," Aya said in surprise, "Are you offering bribes? Don't be joking, okay, they can't be."
Before the words fell, the two guards laughed lightly and said: "Understood, it is indeed not a suspicious person. Please come in."
Then the carriage drove straight into Gold Shining Town without hindrance.
Wang Lu got into the car, and smiled at Aya who had a sluggish face: "Haha, it seems that some spirits have a longer history than knight spirits."
Aya said unwillingly: "This, this is just an isolated phenomenon. I believe in my people and the spirit of chivalry."
Wang Lu shrugged: "Yeah, you still believe in love and Santa Claus?"
"Well, even though you don't know what Santa Claus is, what's wrong with believing in love?"
Wang Lu sneered, then snapped his fingers at Liulixian: "Junior Sister, tell her."
While eating the flower cake, Liu Lixian said: "Senior brother taught me that love comes and goes quickly, only pork rolls are eternal."
"What the hell are you teaching?"
During the dispute, the carriage had already entered the center of the town. Gold Shining Town is a place where exchanges between the four parties are frequent. There are many inns in the town, but some of them cannot meet the needs of the influx of tourists. Along the way, most of the inns are overcrowded. Considering his sensitive identity, Wang Lu went straight to a secluded inn under Aya's guidance.
"Ah, it's been so long, and this inn is still in operation." When the carriage approached the inn, Aya sighed softly, "It's really nostalgic. A long time ago, I lived here for a short time when I was touring Gold Town. This hotel Although the inn has an inconspicuous appearance and few people usually come to live in it, it is actually run by an aristocratic family, the environment is quite comfortable and the service is very considerate.”
However, when she reached the entrance of the inn, Aya was surprised to find that many people had already gathered here, most of them were dressed luxuriously, and many of them exuded a strong professional aura.
"Sorry, this restaurant is already full, and we really can't accommodate more people. Please come back, everyone."
At the door, a young girl who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, with sharp eyes, was going out with an apologetic face and declined the guests politely.
"Are you blind? Our master is the only son of the clerk of Boulder City. How dare you be so negligent?"
"Ah, that's how it is. Let me explain the situation to the guest who just checked in and ask him to give up the room to you, okay?"
"Hmph, you're smart"
"Yeah, the guests just now claimed to be the family of the city lord of Red Scale City. I think since he is the lord of the city, he should be reasonable and understand your difficulties. I'll talk to them now."
"Wait, Lord Lord of Red Scale City? Well, then we don't need it..." The group of people were disheartened.
After dismissing the clerk's only son, the little girl let out a sigh of relief, stood at the door, glanced at the crowd still gathered, and shouted loudly: "My house is full, and it's useless for everyone to stay here. Let me discuss with the guests who have already moved in, let me sell the room? The person who talks the most is Lord Chilin, do you want me to talk about it?"
The best ones to speak are at the city lord level? Although Scarlet Scale City can only be regarded as a third-tier city in Bretonia, it is still the owner of the city after all. Hearing this, the crowd finally began to disperse, obviously realizing that it was pointless to entangle
In the carriage, Wang Lu turned to look at Aya. Aya looked directly at the skilled little girl with emotion: "It's exactly the same as her ancestors. The girl who received me back then was also such a little girl. However, there were not so many guests at that time."
Wang Lu also frowned and said, "There are indeed too many people in the town."
On the way here, he noticed that there were a lot of tourists in this town. The inns, taverns, shops and other places were crowded with people. The town had a carnival-like atmosphere, as if it was about to celebrate some grand festival.
"What should we do now?" Wang Lu pointed to the fully booked inn.
"I have something here, I don't know if it can still be used." Aya said softly, got out of the car and walked to the door of the inn, came to the little girl, and showed her a badge.
The little girl showed a puzzled expression, but her face changed, and she looked Aya up and down in surprise. It's just that no matter how proficient the little girl is, she can't tell anything from Aya's young face.
"What? Has it expired?" Aya asked calmly.
"No, please come in, please come in." The little girl quickly shook her head, stretched out her hand and pushed Aya, the gatekeeper of the inn, to welcome her in. After a while, Aya came out with a feeling of emotion on her face, with a golden key in her hand
"The rules of this inn haven't changed, but the current owner is the sixth generation descendant of the old one, and the little girl is his daughter. After a hundred years, the badge issued by this inn is still valid, The inn has always reserved the best rooms for people with badges. However, even the innkeeper doesn’t recognize me anymore.”
"After a hundred years, Aya, you still look the same. Of course no one dares to recognize you anymore. You are not from the stars. Don't you people in Xiyi Continent always age very fast... By the way, what happened to this town? How many people?"
Aya said: "Just now I heard from the little girl that Shining Gold Town will hold a talent selection ceremony recently, and the city lord of Dragon City will preside over the selection. City guard."
"Dragon City is the oldest city in Bretonia. It used to be the capital of many dynasties, but it became corrupt and depraved later. During my reign, I moved the capital to another place, and severely punished Dragon City, breaking up Dragon City. The eight major legions in the country selected the elite to form the Dragon City Guard. It was one of the most elite armies in the country at that time, with the most complete professional mix and systematic training methods, from entry to advanced level, in Dragon City. There are matching methods in the city guards. Now that a hundred years have passed, the reputation of the Dragon City Guards seems to be higher than before. Being able to join the Dragon City Guards means infinitely bright prospects, attracting people from many surrounding areas, so the town's talents There will be so many. This ceremony is held every three years, and it only started in the last ten years, so I have never heard of it."
"So that's how it is. It's somewhat similar to the Immortal Ascension Conference of the Spirit Sword Sect."
"Well, didn't Lingxi Town have the same scene back then?" Aya said, "It's just strange, so many years have passed, and Bretonia has undergone earth-shaking changes during this period. I remember that Dragon City was not spared when the country perished. , experienced a big storm... and after a hundred years, Dragon City has completely recovered its glory. Is it really because this ancient city has unexpected vitality?"
Wang Lu said, "So just watch quietly first." After a pause, Wang Lu looked towards the square of Shining Gold Town in the distance, where careful arrangements had already begun to welcome the coming Lord of Dragon City. "I always feel that there will be surprises."
A group of people stayed in the inn. As Aya said, the inn left them the most upscale guest room—the innkeeper's own room. During the stay of Aya and others, the innkeeper's family moved to live in a villa outside the town.
During this period, the person in charge of the room service was the innkeeper's daughter, that pretty little girl who was only thirteen or fourteen years old. As expected of a family inheritance, the little girl is not very old, but her professional quality is already quite high. Every day, Wang Lu and the others' rooms are tidy and tidy, showing care and consideration in every detail. And what's rare is that she is good at cooking, and the three meals a day are often surprising. In Bretonia, which is known as the best gourmet food, it should be regarded as the first-class standard. It only took one day to let Liuli fairy It is regarded as a confidant.
The little girl has a lively personality, and when cleaning up and serving the room, her mouth is usually restless. Unlike her ancestors who have lived here for generations, she showed great curiosity about the outside world, pestering Wang Lu and the others to ask non-stop questions about what the world outside of Jinjin Town looks like, and about the eastern city-states. Is it so prosperous and developed in the rumors? Ask what is so magical about the mysterious Eastern Continent.
Similarly, taking the opportunity of chatting, Wang Lu also grasped an outline of what happened in Bretonia in recent years through this little girl.
After Aya's subjugation in the past, Bretonia was once split into many vassal states, but the melee among the vassal states did not last long. Thirty years ago, it was suppressed by an external force.
The external force is of course the Holy Light Cult. During Aya's reign, Bretonia followed the local religion and was very vigilant against the infiltration of the Holy Light. It's just that after Aya's subjugation, the Sect of the Holy Light swept across Bretonia in just over ten years and established authority in all the vassal states. Leaving aside the disadvantages, the war was quickly ended and peace was brought to this place.
Today's Bretonia does not have a unified political power. The country is composed of hundreds of city-states. Among them, Dragon City is the most powerful. Besides the city, there are more than 30 cities as vassals. And the relatively weak ones such as Red Scale City are basically not worth mentioning.
However, no matter how strong or weak these forces are, they are actually under the rule and management of the Holy Light Cult. Although there is no unified political power here, they have a common belief. In this regard, the little girl is quite critical.
"I hate those members of the Holy Light Cult. I always feel that they have bad intentions towards the Bretonians. For example, the selection ceremony of the Dragon City Guards seems to be the Dragon City City Master, but in fact it is the Holy Light Cult who is selecting People, so I don't envy those selected at all. Hehe, don't say these words
The little girl smiled playfully and stuck out her pink tongue.
Wang Lu nodded, and said softly, "Actually, is the Holy Light Sect selecting candidates?"
