The Dragon Princess Who Traveled Through Another World - Chapter 152
Chapter 152 Yangmou
Last night, the alert in Utopia reached an unprecedented high.
The top leader of Ideal Township was assassinated in public, but it is impossible for the officials who want a share of face to really go back to sleep.
Thanks to the Raven Society, for some time to come, Utopia’s security will be so high that the assassins will despair.
There is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days, this Charlie understands.
While studying the information of the Raven Society, Charlie was thinking hard about why he was targeted by the number one “terrorist organization” in the world.
It doesn’t make sense for her to close the door to ‘farm the fields’, can it hinder Raven’s plan to destroy the world, right?
Here, Utopia is all mobilized, and the dragon descendants of the military department exude a strong murderous look when they walk.
The civilian staff once again entered the mode of “endless meeting”.
Charlie sat in the meeting room, quietly watching the officials of the city hall enter, ‘propose a motion’, ‘reject other people’s motion’, ‘I don’t have a better motion’, in an endless loop.
The new city in the ideal countryside has become a large-scale “spy” paradise.
If you don’t check, you don’t know, but if you check, you will be shocked.
Relying on the brain-peeping monster, the military department caught more than 500 spies in just one night.
From the three major human empires on the surface to the dark elf clan living in the dungeon for a long time.
In short, relying on these spies from all over the world, Charlie can piece together a map of the world.
If Bella was still a small fishing village in the backcountry, naturally it wouldn’t attract so many malicious ‘spies’.
The same is true in this world. You want to close your doors and develop, but if you don’t have a strong force to defend your town, you will only be waiting for war and plunder.
And when you develop strong force, you will be feared by others.
…
Metropolis today is not the same as it was in the past.
In the past, Beira’s new city was always lively and noisy.
This place is not perfect, and even the existences who love Utopia deeply are, in a sense, a group of freaks.
The ogre who is vegetarian and has a good temper; the flower spirit who likes to fall in love with the troglodytes who prey on him; the dwarf who loves scientific research but always makes research and development accidents…
Everyone is imperfect and has a past that they don’t want to mention, but in Utopia, they can ignore their race, ignore the eyes of others, and just be themselves.
This is also the side that Charlie sincerely wanted to see when he made those remarks.
However…
In today’s Xincheng, there are very few people doing business on the street.
More storefronts are closed than open.
And those stores that opened the door no longer have the smiling faces to welcome customers, and the eyes of everyone are gloomy.
On the street, the new boss came in a hurry and left in a hurry.
Between each other, no one wants to say a word.
The atmosphere at the gate of the city can only be worse.
Originally, the city guard always greeted pedestrians with smiles.
When you see a strange traveler, you will say a few more words.
If a few words can help others, why should I be stingy?
And today, passers-by who want to enter the city are considered unlucky.
The previously friendly city guard soldiers disappeared, but replaced by a group of vicious “plague gods”.
It’s just a suspicious life who entered a city and was almost interrogated. Eight generations of ancestors are almost dug out.
What was even more perverted was that during the interrogation, a monster that looked like a brain jellyfish stood beside the city guard.
Nobody wants to lie about that ‘floating’ ‘brain jellyfish’.
’Da da da’ hurried hoofbeats came.
On the city wall, the two dragonborn generals on duty looked down upon hearing the sound.
As a result, I saw a team of knights.
The knights headed by them carried a banner with the coat of arms of the noble family embroidered with a shield-griffin beast.
The pair of knights did not **** the carriage, but they moved forward in the shape of a ‘product’, obviously escorting important people.
Mifalken narrowed his eyes and looked carefully.
Only then did they find a woman wearing aristocratic light cavalry from the pair of knights.
He recognizes this face, it seems to be the woman named Christine, Mifakon thought.
Yesterday, the city lord was assassinated in his mansion, and the army lost a lot of face.
Marshal Theon scolded their five generals yesterday as bloody.
Of course, the five generals themselves blamed themselves.
If they had done a better job, it wouldn’t have happened.
Therefore, those who have anything to do with the military today have a ‘donkey face’ from top to bottom.
Look at the kind that everyone wants to kick.
The pair of knights arrived at the city and were stopped without any surprise.
The soldier in charge of interrogation dragged the ‘Brain Peer Monster’ over.
Mifalken, who originally wanted to go down in person, stopped walking.
The procedures that should be followed still need to be followed.
It wasn’t until the soldiers finished their routine questioning that Mifalken jumped directly from the city wall.
The spread wings greatly cushioned the force of his fall.
The three-meter-high Dragonborn General landed on the ground with a muffled ‘bang’.
His height is enough for him to look at the noble lady on horseback.
“Miss Christine, I don’t think this is an excellent time to visit.” Mifalken said.
Christine’s horse seemed a little restless because of Mifalken’s closeness, pacing left and right, and seemed to want to turn around and run away.
“I know, but I have very important news, and I want to report it to Earl Violet!”
Miss Aifa hurriedly said to Mifakon while trying to comfort the horse.
“Can you tell me what’s going on? Your Excellency is still in a meeting at the city hall. If it’s not urgent, you might have made this trip in vain today.”
Aifa lowered his voice: “Raven.”
Mifalken looked solemn, and immediately said: “Please follow me into the city.”
After entering the city, Christine also found something wrong with the atmosphere of the new city.
She felt a little uncomfortable.
It is precisely because I have experienced the harmonious atmosphere of Utopia before.
Witnessing races from all over the world, enjoying themselves, amazed by this, and more and more admire the achievements of Charlie Violet.
So, seeing such a weird atmosphere in the new city today makes me feel even more uncomfortable.
It is always easier to destroy than to build.
Mifalken must personally **** Christine so that her group of knights can pass through the teleportation hall.
Otherwise, without a general as a guarantee, the floating city of Ideal Township is in a ‘closed’ state today.
Yesterday’s scene terrified everyone.
If it weren’t for the quick response of the black dragon raised by the city lord, I’m afraid Utopia would have to do something for nothing today.
When passing through the transmission hall, Mifakon signed three documents and waited for about 10 minutes before being released.
From this point, Christine deduced that Utopia is currently closed.
“Is the situation serious?” Christine asked with some concern.
Mifalken hesitated for a moment, but still said: “Last night, we found many spies in the new city.”
This is no wonder, today, the new city is full of grass and trees.
At the same time, Christine also admires Utopia’s methods.
Can the spies in the city be caught overnight?
But… this kind of thing, is it possible to put an end to it?
The teleportation hall directly sent everyone to the outer city of Utopia.
Going from the outer city to the inner city has to pass through a portal.
For this portal, Mifakon signed many documents.
Finally, there is even a communication crystal directly connected to Secretary-General Nao.
After the Secretary-General approves, this pedestrian can use the teleportation gate to the inner city.
Compared to yesterday’s smooth journey, today is like a pearl shell, with layers of strict guards, protecting the ‘pearl’ in the center.
When the group arrived at the city hall, Secretary-General Nao was already waiting in front of the gate of the city hall.
The first sentence of the meeting is not a greeting, but a statement that cannot be refused.
“Miss Aifa, your retinue knight will not be allowed to accompany you, please understand.”
Kristen’s knight commander frowned, and wanted to object when he took a step forward.
However, Christine stopped him first.
“Oli, I think if General Mifakon goes with me, I won’t encounter any danger.”
The knight commander named Ollie bit his cheek, and finally saw his lady’s firm gaze and had to compromise.
Utopia did this to protect Charlie’s safety.
But the proper hospitality will not be lost.
The horses of a group of people were taken away by the staff of the city hall, fed with water and feed, and brushed their manes by the way. In short, a full set of services were served.
The knights were politely invited to the lounge of the city hall.
There are delicious refreshments and gourmet black tea waiting for them.
Naou led Christine all the way to the meeting room.
On the way, he explained to Christine in a low voice: “Sorry, I made too many demands on you who came here with good intentions. But please forgive me…”
The melancholy and handsome half-elf said sincerely.
“Miss Charlie, is she all right? We’re all worried about her.”
“Hey, Your Excellency is safe and sound, thank you for your concern.”
Until approaching the conference hall, through the thick ornate wooden door, Christine could also hear the almost roaring quarrel inside.
“Old man! What do you mean?!”
“It’s not interesting! If it wasn’t for you, the outsiders! Your Excellency Violet, how could she be assassinated!?”
“Half of our Bella boys are in the city guard! They are proud to protect you and your land!”
“We Bella’s girls, twenty of them are all in White Castle, serving as Your Excellency’s maids!”
“Ha! Am I wrong? I found out more than 500 spies this time, is there any one from Bella!? Let me ask you, yes! Or not?!”
“you you you!”
“Stop arguing! Old man of Beira Village, please don’t say a few words. There are less than a hundred people in your Beila Village. Drive the rest away. You don’t feel panic when you live in the huge floating city?”
“Your Excellency Arcanist… I didn’t mean that!”
“Hmph! You’re talking about a foreigner! I think that’s what you mean!”
Naou pursed his lips slightly, but when he looked back, he still gave Christine a warm and apologetic smile.
“Sorry to offend you.” He lowered his voice.
“No, no, no one wants such a thing to happen.”
Naou nodded, and then knocked on the door.
’Knock knock knock’.
However, the quarrel in the room overshadowed the knock on the door.
Helpless, Nao had no choice but to push the door straight in.
The moment the door opened, Christine saw Charlie sitting on the high seat in a trance.
She didn’t seem to be listening to the quarrel of the red-faced consuls below.
The girl sat lazily on the high-backed chair, looking at the side with a little distracted attention, and the eight-color Ain Stone above her head was spinning slowly.
The people in the conference hall are already on fire.
They were barely standing on the stool.
Christine is not surprised.
Father is a member of the Imperial House of Lords.
Which time did the Imperial House of Lords hold a meeting, and everyone didn’t throw ink bottles at each other?
The mess after the meeting showed how horrible it is to lock men with different political opinions in one room.
It was Charlie at this time, which made Christine very curious.
Facing the current situation, how will Charlie Violet, the miraculous first Countess of the Empire, who is said among these aristocratic women, solve it.
When the quarrel got to the point where no one could convince anyone, the anger reached the extreme, and it became inevitable to do it.
There was a ‘bang’.
As one of the representatives of the ‘Foreigners’, General Dragonborn smashed the conference table in front of him with his fist, stood up and roared:
“Old man! You mean, when the war was fought, it was won by the one hundred people in your village?!”
“We haven’t shed blood!? We haven’t died brothers?!”
“you-!”
Theon was silenced before he finished speaking.
There are quite a few arcanists present, but there is only one who can do it directly.
Everyone looked at the noble **** the main seat.
The halo of the Ion Stone above her head has not dissipated.
Theon was furious, and he was so aggrieved that he couldn’t speak.
Charlie conveniently gave him another enchantment-based ‘forced calm technique’.
Your Excellency Ian relied on this trick back then, but repeatedly suppressed those in the ‘Floating City Club’, who were like the red robes of bullfighting produced in Spain.
Sure enough, after Theon calmed down, he sat down with an ugly expression.
However, there was nothing in front of him, and the table turned into sawdust under his feet.
“It doesn’t make sense to continue this meeting like this. How about it, everyone change places with me, and let’s continue.”
Saying this, Charlie stood up.
At this time, she found Nao and Miss Christine standing behind him.
But after hesitating for a while, Charlie still felt that he should solve the problems at the core layer first.
She gave Christine a small nod of apology.
Naou understood, and immediately said to Christine: “Miss Aifa…”
“Can I go and have a look?” Christine’s eyes were shining, and she looked at Nao pleadingly.
“Let’s just follow behind, okay?”
Charlie took the core layer directly to the outer city.
It wasn’t until she walked towards the portal leading to the new city that everyone’s expressions changed slightly.
Several old men from Bella Village rushed up to stop Charlie.
However, Charlie waved his hand.
“The backbone of the Black Robe Wizards Association, my Dragonborn Grand Marshal, and my guards are all here.”
“If something goes wrong like this, it would be a dream come true.” Charlie said lightly.
The black dragon on her shoulders went somewhere, and she felt a little uncomfortable when she walked there.
Although I quarreled with a few old bones in Bella Village before, I almost picked up the table and slapped them, but I saw that Charlie was about to go to the new town.
Theon is more nervous than anyone else.
If he didn’t think that His Excellency the City Lord would most likely not agree, he would have wanted to hug him up and protect him.
A group of people seemed to be going to drive a BOSS, and went to the new city directly below the floating city.
The staff in the teleportation hall thought it was the previous wave of knights.
It turned out that it was the “leadership team” of Utopia, and I was almost shocked.
Charlie could feel the difference.
In the past, when everyone saw her, they would kindly surround her and say hello.
Now, when everyone sees her, the first reaction is to take a step, then pause, and then take three steps back.
Keep her distance.
Is it fear?
Charlie lowered his eyes and walked forward in silence.
She just walked out of the teleportation hall step by step.
Usually, although she seldom comes to Xincheng, she comes here occasionally and likes the atmosphere of Xincheng very much.
The atmosphere gave her a sense of accomplishment.
But now, she silently felt the depression on the street.
The way everyone in the store looked at her.
The races that used to be happy and harmonious, now have an atmosphere of mutual suspicion and mutual hostility…
She couldn’t bear it anymore, she stopped and stood on the wide street of the new city.
The store owners who hadn’t closed down all wanted to come over, but after a little thought, and then looking at the core layer with unfriendly faces, they dispelled such thoughts.
“Everyone, I think this place is good, let’s continue the meeting just now!”
“Hey, everyone was talking about it just now, and I didn’t say anything.”
“Let me talk now!”
“First of all, I have a question, please help me.”
Every word she said used the sound transmission arcane of the wind attribute.
The sound spread to every corner of the new city.
The citizens who were in their own houses, or the passers-by in a hurry on the street, stopped what they were doing and listened carefully.
“I ask everyone, how long have we spent to make Utopia develop into what it is today?”
“I ask everyone, do you still remember everything we experienced together, the ‘fall of the floating city’, the ‘success of the blue sky project’… Until today, the only floating city in the world has been created.”
“These, could it be that one of us did it alone?”
“Did it come without any sacrifice?”
“No! An ideal land that is a mess of sand is not an ideal land!”
“How long did it take us to build our Utopia? But our enemy only took one night, an assassin, and destroyed everything about us!”
“And now, do you still want to make those enemies hiding in the shadows happy?! Because what you have done is to help them destroy our home little by little! Our city! Our ideal town!”
At the end of her words, she screamed and screamed, her eyes were red.
The last time she cried, it was because her respected mentor turned into a cold walking skeleton.
