Lu Xiao no longer needs sleep to replenish energy, but Ou Lin and her wife do.
Thoughtfully leaving time for the two of them to be gentle and cultivate themselves, Lu Xiao planned to return to his luxurious villa near the palace area.
It was already around five o'clock in the morning when Lu Xiao and his party returned to Ziwu City.
Although there is no curfew system in Ziwu City, this point should still be sleeping time. Only farmers in satellite villages and towns at the foot of the mountain will get up early to start the day's work.
However, at this time, the streets of Ziwu City were already brightly lit, and a large number of residents who got up unusually early were whispering to each other and looking in the direction of the palace.
Lu Xiao randomly found a restless middle-aged man and asked, "Brother, what's going on? Could it be that something happened to the Sun King?"
The middle-aged man glared at Lu Xiao dissatisfied: "How can you talk? How could something happen to the Sun King? The person who is in trouble is the Oseland warlord Delva who is secretly doing something!"
"oh?"
Lu Xiao's expression changed: "Delva was caught?"
"That's right, he was transported to Meridian City the day before yesterday afternoon. King Yavid announced that he would be handed over to Ambassador Oseland at 7 o'clock this morning to be brought back to the country for trial."
Lu Xiao nodded, finally understanding why so many people were watching the excitement early in the morning.
According to the horizontal comparison of similar cultural backgrounds, the civilization process of the Kingdom of Karga is similar to the period between the European Middle Ages and the Renaissance.
With little entertainment at night, the people of Calga go to bed early at night, and getting up early becomes a common thing.
However, according to what Lu Xiao saw when he lived in Ziwu City some time ago, people in Calgar usually get up around 6 o'clock, and 5 o'clock is still a bit too early.
Because of the incomplete technology tree left behind by human civilization in the first season, the Kingdom of the Sun, which was the first to begin excavating ancient relics, possesses some technological products that transcend the times.
For example, the obelisk standing on the top of a higher mountain in the north of Ziwu City is said to be a relay station used by ancient civilizations to transmit all signals.
This statement was confirmed by Consus, and there were indeed many radio signals entangled in the obelisk.
If she could find a way to connect directly to the obelisk, Aletheia wouldn't need to lay out base stations everywhere. The function of the obelisk alone would allow the signal to cover the entire Kingdom of Calga.
'But the other way around.'
Lu Xiao looked at the obelisk in the distance and squinted his eyes: "If the obelisk is used by someone with evil intentions, it should be able to awaken a large number of Faroese war machines buried all over the world at once, right?"
Not intending to sleep anyway, Lu Xiao simply stood in the crowd and watched the fun.
At seven o'clock on time, the palace door opened, and Yavid, who was decorated with gorgeous gold decorations, walked out first surrounded by palace guards.
A decent brown-haired man in a poor mental state stood next to Yavid. Judging from the large number of silver metal pieces dotted on his clothes, this man should be from Oseland, and most likely he was the Ou that passers-by mentioned before.
Ambassador Seran.
"People!"
Yavid raised his hands in the air, and the noise near the palace gradually subsided.
"Today, the warlord Delvar, who undermined diplomatic relations between Calgar and Otheran, will be handed over to the Otheran ambassador."
The high-spirited Yavid announced loudly: "Delvar, who aims to provoke a war between the two tribes, will return to the main spring of Oseland to accept the judgment and rejection of each tribe!"
"The relationship between Calgar and Oseland will not be broken because of Delvar. We both have a common enemy, just northwest of Meridian City..."
At this time, Yavid showed the charisma that a king should possess, and his inciting words stirred up the emotions of the people present.
"Those traitors who call themselves Shadow Calgar, lackeys of Siris the Regicide and Bahava!"
Yavid raised his arms and shouted: "I swear here as the 14th Sun King! I will definitely make the regicide who murdered King Jilang pay the price!"
"The sun's rays will shine on its people, and the glory belongs to Calgar!"
"oh!!"
The disgraced Ambassador Oseland did not dare to raise his head to face the excited people of Ziwu City, and completed the handover with the city guards of Ziwu City amidst loud cheers.
Delva was a rough, middle-aged man with beards. After being brought from prison to the square in front of the palace, he kept staring at Yavid with hatred in his eyes.
He probably wanted to curse something, but his mouth was blocked by a rag and he couldn't say anything. He could only make an angry and frightened "Woo" sound.
He was angry because he failed to achieve his goal of revenge, and he was frightened because he was about to be sent back to the main spring of Oseland to face trial.
In order to provoke a war between Othelan and Calgar, Delvar secretly did a lot of shameful things, including disguising himself as a Calgar soldier and attacking other innocent Othelan tribes.
All Delva's activities have been thoroughly investigated by Yavid's people, and Ambassador Oseland has been informed of his crimes.
The ambassador didn't have a good look on this idiot who was smearing Oseland's face. When he passed by, he even kicked Delva hard in the crotch in anger.
"oh!"
Delva's inflected cry of pain made the people of Calgar present burst into laughter. Delva, whose eyes turned white, fell to the ground and twitched slightly, his legs tightly clamped together at a strange angle.
Ambassador Oseland gave a stern order to the Oseland soldiers who came to escort Delva: "Take this traitor away! He must be safely sent back to the main spring to face the trial of each department!"
…
After watching the fun, Lu Xiao disappeared into the crowd that was gradually dispersing and was about to go home and rest for a while, but at this moment he suddenly received a contact from Yongzhen using Focus.
"Lu Xiao, we have arrived at Ziwu City and have just seen the excitement in front of the palace. Where are you now?"
Lu Xiao didn't expect that Yongzhen and Aloy had already entered the city, and hurriedly let go of his eagle vision to scan Yongzhen's familiar life fluctuations.
"I'm also in the city, right in front of the mansion on your left rear. You can see me when you turn your head."
Yongzhen left the crowd and came to the luxurious villa. Next to her was a surprised Nora girl - Aloy.
Even Lu Xiao felt separated when he first came to Ziwu City from the primitive society of the Nora tribe, let alone a serious country bumpkin like Aloy.
Everything in Ziwu City was so new to her, and the noisy environment was a bit uncomfortable for Aloy, who was used to being alone, but deep down she did not reject this new way of life.
The primitively dressed Aloy looks out of place in Meridian City, just like a primitive man from the Bronze Age suddenly walking into the bustling city of the 12th century.
Aloy is not the first Nora person to come to Ziwu City, her adoptive father Rost came here more than ten years ago.
However, the Nora tribe is indeed a rare guest in Meridian City. Even Yavid, who was busy returning to the palace to visit Elsa, couldn't help but glance at Aloy along with the flow of people.
Lu Xiao hugged Yongzhen habitually, and stretched out his hand to signal to Aloy, whose face was full of curiosity: "You are Aloy, I am Yongzhen's husband, Lu Xiao, welcome to Ziwu City."
Aloy always spoke straightforwardly, so she ignored Lu Xiao's greetings.
After being reminded by Yong Zhen and awkwardly holding the friendly hand extended by Lu Xiao, Aloy asked bluntly: "Do you know the headquarters of the Eclipse Sect? Tell me, I still have a debt to settle with their leader.
.”
"Uh~"
The words of the steely girl Aloy made Lu Xiao pause: "...Just in time, I'm going to see Olin at noon to get information. You can come with me then."
