Chapter 150 Gray City
The envoy team continued to move forward in the direction where the mechanical bird was circling. After about an hour of walking, suddenly, a huge basin appeared in front of everyone.
On the flat grassland, the ground suddenly went down, forming a huge basin below the ground level. In the center of the basin, a majestic city stood majestically.
I visually estimated that this basin city covers an area of at least hundreds of square kilometers. The city is hidden beneath the surface of the earth, and a huge mechanical bird is constantly circling over the basin.
"Welcome to Gray City, the main city of the God of War clan." An Xiaoshe waved to everyone and introduced.
On the edge of this huge basin, there is a large elevator every few hundred meters on average, but few people seem to use it. Only some tauren who look like soldiers take the elevator to leave the city of the basin to perform tasks. It seems that this huge elevator
The resources in the basin can already meet the survival needs of most of the God of War clan.
We followed An Xiaoshe to the large elevators. The elevator intersections here are unattended. There is a small mechanical control room at each entrance to control the work of the elevators. The elevators operate according to the set time.
, run up and down automatically.
"There is no need for guards to guard this place. You can come and go at will." Zhang Baoer said while looking at the elevator.
"Do the God of War clan still need guards? Who dares to go down and cause trouble?" Daom immediately seized the opportunity to ridicule Zhang Baoer.
Everyone moved forward together and squeezed into the huge elevator. After a few minutes, they arrived on the ground of the basin.
The basin is still full of green grass, and the elevators extend out many roads leading to the city. We walked along one of the roads towards Gray City.
Gradually there were some pedestrians along the way, and I was surprised to find that in the Kingdom of Kenant, in addition to the Tauren, there were also many Eternals, Liats, Star Thieves and other creatures of different races. Therefore, the residents here are very important to us.
This team is not very surprised.
"Hey, Corporal, are there any of your Guido fellows here?" Zhang Baoer asked Tom deliberately.
"You..." Daomu suffered the disadvantage of being dumb and ignored Zhang Baoer.
The area in the basin is very huge, and it will take some time before we reach the main city.
"Crane Moon, I discovered a strange phenomenon." Lao Du said to me.
"What problem did you find?" I immediately responded to Lao Du.
"I found that after the team entered the basin, the ringing of the ground disappeared, and there was no huge environmental noise here." Lao Du said his discovery.
After Lao Du reminded me, I discovered that the sound of the earth's ringing had indeed disappeared in the basin.
"You are right. There is no ground sound in the basin. This is also the magical thing about the Gray City area. It is precisely because of the huge ground sound above the surface that the residents of the Kenant Kingdom generally live in the basin.
Among them." After hearing our discussion, An Xiaoshe turned to us and explained.
"Why are there so many other alien races living here?" I took the opportunity to ask An Xiaoshe.
"Emperor Philip asked King Carter to liberalize the foreign trade of the Kingdom of Kernant. Therefore, the Kingdom of Kernant has a trading post in the space of Eternal Star, which is specially used to provide foreign races with the right to apply for trade and business. All the procedures are complied with.
Aliens traveling to and from the Earthly Star need to take a weekly interstellar spacecraft departing from the exclusive channel of the Eternal Star to arrive here safely." An Xiaoshe explained to me.
"So that's it. It seems that we didn't know where the exclusive passage was, so we parked in the non-parking area by mistake." I suddenly realized.
"According to King Carter's royal order, non-War God clan foreigners who enter the non-stop area at will can be directly shot, so I took direct shooting action before." An Xiaoshe expressed his apology to me.
Not far away, a magnificent city gate came into view.
This magnificent city gate is twenty meters high. On the stone walls on both sides of the city gate, a lifelike mechanical bird is carved on each side. At the sentry post at the city gate, there are several strong tauren warriors standing guard.
I was surprised to find that around the huge city gate, there were no walls to protect Gray City.
"This city gate is not in existence. Everyone can enter the city by going around." I thought to myself.
After a while, the large army came to the city gate. An Xiaoshe informed the city gate guards of our intention. After obtaining permission, two city gate guards led us into the city together with An Xiaoshe.
In front of a house behind the city gate, I saw a mechanical bird standing on two legs. Behind the mechanical bird, it was towing a ride-on tractor.
After the city gate guard signaled everyone to get on the bus, a guard got into the driver's seat. The mechanical bird immediately started up, spread out its two powerful legs, and ran towards the palace.
The houses in Gray City are all very tall, and many large buildings seem to be made of thatch, but wood accounts for the main structure. Thinking that there is no forest along the way, I don't understand where all these wood come from.
"Don't be surprised, these wood come from interstellar trade." An Xiaoshe seemed to see through my mind.
"So much wood was brought in by aliens, so the cost must be very high." I couldn't help but marvel.
"Since the opening of trade, the demand for sturdier wooden houses has completely replaced thatched houses. This business is very popular. Many aliens come to Dimingxing to engage in wood business." An Xiaoshe continued to explain.
"That money-hungry Guido will definitely come to Dimingxing to do this business." Upon hearing this, Zhang Baoer said immediately.
Daum's eyes rolled and he ignored Zhang Baoer, seeming to be thinking about the value of this business.
"What goods do you use in exchange for wood?" An Xiaoshe and I started chatting.
"On that green grassland, there is a special substance hidden, which we call green gold. Only the royal family has the right to mine this green gold. However, after the royal family obtains these substances, it will be distributed to the warriors of the God of War clan every year.
, as long as you take it regularly, you can ensure your body's strength, which is also the reason why the God of War family has strong fighting power." An Xiaoshe explained.
"So on every piece of grass, there are bull-headed warriors guarding it to prevent theft." Zhang Baoer interjected from the side.
"Yes, we hunters are responsible for reconnaissance and guarding." An Xiaoshe confirmed Zhang Baoer's meaning.
"I also want to taste the green gold." Zhang Baoer looked expectantly.
"Fat man, it would be better to wait until you get married." Daum interjected from the side.
"You kid, let's see if I don't beat you up." Zhang Baoer was ridiculed and couldn't help but stand up and prepare to fight back.
"Don't make trouble, we are here." Lao Du pressed Zhang Baoer tightly again.
A wooden statue of a king appeared in front of us. The bull-headed king on the statue was wearing a crown, his eyes were bright, a long braided beard hung on his chin, and he held a long sword in both hands, standing majestically.
"This must be King Carter!" Lao Du exclaimed.
"Yes, this is a gift given to the king by foreign businessmen on his 40th birthday." An Xiaoshe replied.
The mechanical bird carriage stopped in front of a row of grassy buildings that stretched for thousands of square meters. At the main gate of the building complex, there were many strong tauren warriors holding cold weapons.
"Judging from the appearance of this race, its combat capability cannot be underestimated." Master Jing said in admiration.
The city gate guard and An Xiaoshe got off the car first. We all also got off the car and waited in front of the palace gate. The guard informed the palace guard of our need to visit the king. About ten minutes later, an old man with a gray beard and a tauren came out.
Walked out of the palace.
"Who are these two respected princes of Akaliut?" the white-bearded bull-headed old man asked us.
"Hello, we are Doris and Ered, the princes of Akaliut." Prince Doris stepped forward and replied.
"Dear princes and envoys, I am Durit, the political advisor of the Kenant dynasty. King Carter is already waiting for you in the palace, and has ordered the stalker warriors who discovered the envoys to enter the palace." The white-bearded bull-headed old man.
Dorrit informed King Carter of his wishes.
The group, including An Xiaoshe, immediately followed Durit into the palace.
The houses in the palace are taller than those of the civilians in the city, and use more wood. It seems that the tauren also found that wood is stronger than grass, so even if they need to spend money, more wooden materials are added to the buildings.
After walking through the palace for about ten minutes, everyone came to a huge garden.
The entire garden is covered with green grass. In the middle of the garden, there is a circular pool. On the edge of the pool is a huge white rock statue. This statue also looks like a king, but it looks more majestic and majestic. The muscles on its arms show
Showing unparalleled fighting power, the weapon in his hand is no longer a giant sword, but a huge hammer leaning on his shoulder with one hand, and the other hand pointing straight ahead.
"King Nerva!" An Xiaoshe said as he knelt down on one knee and saluted the statue.
"This is Nerva, the founding monarch of the Kernantian dynasty and the greatest king in the history of the Kernantian dynasty." Dean Soth explained to us while bowing respectfully.
Upon hearing this, everyone bowed respectfully to the founding monarch of the God of War clan.
After paying homage to the statue of the founding monarch, everyone followed Durit into a thatched palace next to the garden.
As soon as they entered the main hall, everyone felt refreshed.
The spacious hall was filled with independent dining tables, as if a grand banquet was being held.
On a high platform in the middle of the hall, there is the largest square dining table. Behind the dining table, there is a bull-headed king with a braided beard and a crown. There is no doubt that this is the king of the Kingdom of Kenant.
King Carter.
But what is particularly shocking is not the king, but the two bull-headed guards standing behind the king.
The two guards looked stronger and taller than the Adoka they had seen before. They were nearly three meters tall. They were wearing God of War armor. Each of them carried a huge waist knife. They looked straight ahead and stood majestically in front of the king.
Behind him, his face was filled with unworthy courage.
"These two big guys probably need to drink a pound of green gold every day." I heard Zhang Baoer analyze this.
However, judging from the appearance, the God of War clan can have such powerful warriors, and the combat effectiveness of this race cannot be underestimated.
I saw that Diudiu kept transmitting our specific itinerary and progress to the Spacetime in a low voice, and kept in constant communication with Commander Zhang Xingxing.
"Welcome the two princes of the distinguished Kingdom of Akaliut and all the envoys. Everyone is tired from traveling. I have prepared a welcome banquet for you. You can enjoy it later. We will chat while eating." King Carter immediately
Expressed the greatest enthusiasm to everyone.
"This king is more generous than Emperor Philip. At least he invited me to a meal, which is not bad." Zhang Baoer said happily.
After hearing the king's words, everyone showed excited expressions. After all, enthusiasm is better than indifference, especially Diudiu, who was even more excited when he heard about the banquet.
Following the guidance of several female tauren hosts, we sat down respectively, one person at a table.
To be honest, I am also hungry. I have no appetite after eating space biscuits every day. Especially since I joined Starfleet, I often forget to eat every meal. My pursuit of delicious food is much worse than before.
, now that the big meal is in front of me, my stomach starts to growl unsatisfactorily.
I glanced at everyone, everyone was in a similar state to me, and Diudiu seemed to be drooling.
"Everyone, we are a small country and we don't have any particularly good food, but the noble prince has come from afar, so I have people prepare the most unique Dimingxing food for everyone to taste." King Carter continued to greet everyone enthusiastically.
call.
