Chapter 105: Small country, leopard print, civil war and artistic stone statues (1)
The owner of the clothing store is very punctual and sent the dress over at noon.
The people who came to pick up Annan and Esdeath for the dinner also came very early. As soon as the owner of the front foot clothing store left, they arrived at the back foot. According to these people, it was because the capital of the kingdom was a bit far away from here.
Can be picked up in advance.
In the changing room of the naval base.
"Aren't you afraid of scaring the king when you go to the dinner party like this?"
Esdeath crossed her arms and looked at Annan who had Muramasa hanging on his waist.
"Bringing iron tools to his dinner party is not like the mission in the Kingdom of Duolun." Esdeath said.
At that time, due to mission requirements, Annan and Esdeath followed Colonel Byron to attend a banquet hosted by the Kingdom of Doron.
The navy can enter the banquet hall with weapons, but the mission requirement is secret protection, so the three of them are not wearing uniforms, and except for a few insiders, no one else knows their identities.
"We all entered the venue normally, but you stupidly entered the venue directly with a weapon, but you frightened the captain of the Kingdom Guard. Esdeath said.
"He doesn't understand the rules of the Navy very well, and he is too embarrassed to respond to Colonel Byron, so he has to send a few guards to follow you."
Thinking of this, Esdeath couldn't help laughing.
"Because the attackers caused a commotion and we were not wearing navy uniforms, the guards mistook you for an accomplice of the attackers and threw you to the ground."
"How can you blame me? It was Colonel Byron who said I could carry weapons, so I didn't know you all hid your weapons."
Annan stood in front of a large mirror, tied the end of Muramasa Shimo on his belt, and then tried to pull out the knife several times. After feeling that there was no big problem, he straightened his clothes in front of the mirror.
"I used to hold the knife in my hand, but now I hang it on my waist. It's already pretty good. Anyway, they all know I'm a navy this time, so they won't cause any trouble." p>
The two changed into clothes and came to the entrance of the base.
Guard Captain Barr and a man who looked like a butler came forward and respectfully handed Esdeath an invitation of the highest level.
"I'm very sorry, Miss Esdeath." The housekeeper bowed, "This was our negligence."
After Esdeath accepted the invitation, the two of them were invited onto the carriage.
The carriage was very large. Annan roughly estimated that it was about the same size as a minibus in his previous life. The carriage was wrapped in silk on all sides, with the royal emblem of the Kingdom of Kunta embroidered on the silk. The windows inlaid with unknown gems were covered by brown crepe.
, the inside of the carriage cannot be seen from the outside.
There are ten horses pulling the cart, all of them are big white horses with very well-proportioned bodies.
With a crisp crack of the whip, the carriage slowly set off on the road.
After driving for a while, the carriage drove into the inner wall and arrived at the interior of the Kingdom of Kunta. People gradually gathered in front of it, blocking the carriage's path. The carriage driver had no choice but to move forward slowly.
"This is the inner town of Kunta Kingdom. It is not as dilapidated as the rumors say."
Esdeath looked at the crowds of people on the streets of the town and said in surprise.
The town along the road is not small, even larger than Rogge Town. Because it is sandwiched between the capital and the port town, it often serves as a transit point for businessmen and tourists, and it is quite prosperous.
Annan opened the curtains and looked out the window.
Looking at the crowded street in front of me, I can't help but be a little stunned.
A broad road was crowded with pedestrians coming and going. In front of Annan, there were several carriages moving slowly. Although these carriages also had the royal symbols of the Kingdom of Kunta on them, they still had to go along with the flow of people. This street is also very special. It is divided into black and white. The white road is where Annan and others are now, and the black road is full of pedestrians.
The housekeeper saw that Annan was interested in the streets and explained:
"His Majesty Monto was very attentive to the construction of roads in order to facilitate the transportation of stones. The roads under our feet were all built by His Majesty Monto after he succeeded to the throne. The stones used to build these roads are specialties of our Kingdom of Kunta."
"Roads of different colors have different uses. The white road is higher than the black road, mainly to allow horse-drawn carriages to travel quickly, while the black road is for walking."
"Originally there wouldn't be so many people here because the king's succession ceremony is about to be held, so many tourists come here to wait for the carriage to the palace."
"The current situation is probably caused by the lack of manpower of the guards to maintain order. Please rest assured that these people on the white road will be driven away by the guards soon."
"Well, your king... is quite far-sighted." Annan nodded, "Then let's wait for a while."
