"This..." Taylor looked at the king's uniform in his hand, feeling so excited that he could no longer speak.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin. I will never forget your kindness." Qiao Ma was calmer, so she could still thank Lin Zhiming.
"You're welcome." Lin Zhiming smiled, shook his head, and said, "We are friends, and it is natural for us to help each other."
"I welcome Mr. Lin to my hometown in the future. I will definitely show you the beauty of the African grasslands as a landlord," Qiao Ma said.
"I will go there in the future. I yearn for the prairie very much!" Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
A few people were chatting when the staff of the organizing committee hurried over.
"Good news, everyone!" the staff said excitedly.
"What's the good news?" Taylor asked curiously.
"According to the latest news we have received, in order to show his support for the world's strongest battle, the king of the West Country has temporarily decided to move the award ceremony from here to the palace! And the king himself will present the awards to everyone! Everyone, this is
But the officials of the West Country have given their fullest support to this event!" the staff member laughed.
"Oh, this king is quite good at being a man." Taylor said with a smile.
"The King of the West Country is one of the top people in all of Africa." Qiao Ma said.
Lin Zhiming frowned slightly when he heard what the staff said. Although this seemed to be a good thing, he always felt a little weird.
"Everyone, get ready to go. This time, not only will Mr. Lin be presented with an award, but you all will be presented with awards as well," the staff member said.
"Okay, let's go," Taylor said.
Lin Zhiming nodded and said nothing more.
Afterwards, the group left the venue and took a helicopter away again.
Only this time, everyone did not go back to the previous hotel, but took a helicopter directly back to Burala City, the capital of the West Country.
After more than half an hour of flight, the helicopter landed at a small airport in the center of Burara.
The honor guard from the palace had been waiting for a long time. After Lin Zhiming and others left the airport, they followed Lin Zhiming's motorcade in the direction of the palace, singing and dancing.
The car drove slowly, and Lin Zhiming sat in the car and looked out the window.
Although this country is the richest country in Africa, its essence is similar to other African monarchy countries. Most of the country's wealth is in the pocket of the king alone, so the overall construction of the country is not very good.
But compared to other countries in Africa, the construction of Xidi Country is countless times better, and is probably close to the construction level of second-tier cities in Dragon Kingdom.
"There are really more and more kings in Africa." Solo, who was sitting next to Lin Zhiming, said with emotion.
"Yeah." Lin Zhiming nodded.
More than a hundred years ago, there were almost no so-called kings in Africa. They were all chiefs, and the country was basically governed by a certain political power. However, since the first king appeared in Africa more than fifty years ago to now, this
The culture of being a king seems to have spread in Africa, so that now, Africa already has more than a dozen kings.
These kings were basically elected through coups, and after some of them were overthrown, the new rulers would choose to continue to be the new kings.
Lin Zhiming found it quite magical, because the feudal monarchy represented social regression, which rarely happened in real society.
Not long after, the motorcade drove into the palace.
Lin Zhiming saw the palace of the King of the West Country for the first time. The area of this palace is said to be larger than the Forbidden City. However, in terms of historical background, this palace is far inferior to the Forbidden City. The palace is said to have taken ten years to be repaired and covers an equivalent area.
It is as big as two Forbidden City and is dotted with luxurious palaces. It is said that the owner of the palace is either the king's concubine or the king's child.
The convoy finally stopped in front of the largest palace.
The entrance to the palace was already filled with people wearing their own national costumes. These people were singing and dancing to express their welcome to Lin Zhiming and others.
Lin Zhiming and others walked into the palace under the leadership of officials.
In the palace, Lin Zhiming met the king of Xidi Kingdom.
It was a strong black man about 1.8 meters tall, wearing a set of very gorgeous clothes.
Lin Zhiming had already checked this person's information before coming here. This person's name is Cameron. He is about sixty years old this year. His reputation is not bad, at least compared to some bloodthirsty warlords.
He is quite benevolent and has never done anything like destroying a tribe or race of people.
When Cameron saw everyone appearing, he stood up from his throne with a smile and said, "Welcome to all the strong men from all over the world. I am very happy to see you all in my palace."
Lin Zhiming and others walked up to Cameron and put their right hands on their chests instead of kneeling down. After all, they were not from the West Country. They were among the best in each continent. For an African king like Cameron,
There is no need to kneel down and pray.
Cameron did not argue with everyone about etiquette. He smiled and nodded before letting everyone take their seats.
"Everyone." Cameron smiled and glanced at everyone and said, "The awards stage is already being set up. It is expected to be completed in about an hour. During this period, you can visit my palace, isn't it?
I brag that my palace is the largest and most luxurious palace in the world."
"Can I take a tour?!" Taylor asked excitedly.
"Of course! If you need to visit, I can arrange for palace officials to be your full tour guide," Cameron said.
"That's okay. I really want to see the difference between your palace and our palace!" Taylor said.
"Taylor, it's better to do less than to do more." Lin Zhiming said.
"What's the point of this? It's just going out for a walk." Taylor said with a smile.
Lin Zhiming frowned slightly, but didn't say much. After all, Taylor and him were just friends, not superiors or subordinates.
Subsequently, many people expressed their interest in the palace like Taylor. Naturally, Cameron enthusiastically arranged for people to be tour guides for these people and took them to visit the palace.
Lin Zhiming was not that interested, so he still sat in the palace. At this time, there were only a few people sitting with him in the palace.
"Mr. Lin." Cameron looked at Lin Zhiming and said, "Although our West Country is thousands of kilometers away from the Dragon Country, I have admired Mr. Lin for a long time! I am considered one of yours, Mr. Lin.
A fan."
"Thank you, King, for your love." Lin Zhiming smiled.
"The reason why I used my palace as the venue for the awards this time is mainly because Mr. Lin, you have won the title of the strongest person in the world. If you had not won the title of the strongest person in the world, others would not be qualified to be in our
The awards were given at the royal palace," Cameron said.
"Oh?" Lin Zhiming was a little surprised when he heard what Cameron said. He asked, "What does His Majesty the King know about me?"
"I know a lot." Cameron smiled and talked about some of Lin Zhiming's things. Basically, they were some major events, such as receiving the Federal Medal, obtaining the title of Holy King, and becoming the director of the Dragon Clan.
, completely changed the dragon clan and so on.
Although these are widely circulated things, for a king to say them like countless treasures, it is enough to show that the king is really his fan.
Facing such a fan, Lin Zhiming became more enthusiastic and chatted a little more with Cameron.
An hour passed in the blink of an eye, and Taylor and others returned to the main hall one after another. It was obvious that they were quite satisfied with this sightseeing trip, and everyone had smiles on their faces.
At this time, officials from the palace came to report that the stage for the awards had been set up.
Cameron stood up from the throne and said, "Everyone, please come with me to the square."
After saying that, Cameron walked out of the hall.
Everyone stood up and followed him.
When we arrived outside the main hall, a stage for awarding awards had been set up in the square in front.
There is also a brass band around the stage, and it looks much better than the stage built by the organizing committee before.
Lin Zhiming and others came to the front of the stage and took their seats.
The host of the organizing committee took the microphone and started the award ceremony.
The first thing to do is to gain the title of the world's strongest.
Except for Lin Zhiming, everyone else has this title. Of course, some people are unable to come and receive this title because they have died.
In the end, seven people received the title.
They have also become the only seven recognized world powerhouses in the world.
Then it was Lin Zhiming's turn.
Lin Zhiming won the title of the strongest man in the world, and there were bursts of salutes and applause.
Lin Zhiming walked onto the podium and took over the golden belt symbolizing the world's strongest person from King Cameron.
Lin Zhiming raised the golden belt high above his head, and this scene was immediately transmitted to all parts of the world by the cameras at the scene.
Since then, Lin Zhiming's reputation as the strongest person in the world has been officially established.
Even in an era of rampant juice and an era of exploding martial arts, Lin Zhiming is still at the pinnacle of all warriors just like he was two years ago.
This is an era that belongs to Lin Zhiming.
In terms of personal strength alone, Lin Zhiming is enough to be called invincible.
Not long after, the award ceremony ended.
Lin Zhiming walked off the award podium.
Officials from the palace came over and said to Lin Zhiming, "Mr. Lin, His Majesty the King has prepared a banquet for you. Please follow me to the banquet hall."
Lin Zhiming nodded and followed him to the banquet hall.
The banquet hall is located in another palace and is also very gorgeous.
Cameron fulfilled his duty as a landlord and arranged a very sumptuous practice banquet for everyone.
By the time this meal was finished, night had fallen.
Seeing that it was almost time, Lin Zhiming said goodbye to Cameron and prepared to leave the palace and return to the Dragon Kingdom.
At this moment, an official hurriedly approached the banquet hall.
"His Majesty the King is in trouble, the treasure house has been stolen!!" the official shouted excitedly.
