Chapter 162: Entering the City

"What are you doing in town?"

At the gate of the Golden Dragon Capital, a team of more than 20 people was being interrogated.

In a slightly larger procession like this, cross-examination by the guards is inevitable,

"We are businessmen from Surrey."

A man in charge hurried to answer.

"What's in the car?"

"It's all velvet fabric."

Saying that, the steward also took the initiative to lift the covering on the frame like a guard to show the goods inside.

The guards were not polite, and walked directly forward to start a detailed inspection.

According to the regulations, these caravans can bring some blades into the city, but there must be no such thing as armor and crossbows.

Only nobles like Richard had to abide by this rule when entering the city.

The quality of these guards of the royal capital is much higher than that of the garrisons in other places.

The inspection can also be said to be responsible, and it can only be said that it is worthy of the army under the nose of Thor,

There were almost no vices, and there was no collective degeneration like the local garrisons.

After checking for a long time, the guards only found some blades of the other party's protection, and there were no prohibited items.

"Alright, let's get the money in."

The steward of the caravan was obviously also a familiar hand, and he neatly paid the city gate fee and led the people into the city.

The guards didn't care much, a caravan of this size entered and exited the Golden Dragon Capital no less than a hundred a day.

They can carefully check each one, and they are already quite responsible.

After entering the city, the steward who was still smiling just now immediately changed color.

Turning to a young man in the caravan, he said respectfully:

"Your Majesty, I have wronged you for the time being."

"It's okay, let's take us to the place where we settle down first."

"Yes."

The caravan came to the side gate of a noble mansion, and several carriages stopped outside the courtyard.

A few people came out and led them in through the side door,

It is basically a common thing for the nobles of the royal capital to have several caravans of their own,

The land of the central plains is already precious,

Most of the marquis owned land about the same size as the Hunter family before their careers, and it was difficult to maintain the luxury of a top aristocracy without some other estate.

After the Pope entered the courtyard, an old man dressed in rich clothes walked inside, and as soon as he saw the Pope, he immediately knelt down before the Pope.

"Please forgive me for being disrespectful."

The old man's disrespect refers to the introduction of the Pope and others into the palace through the side door.

Generally, people of noble status enter the house, and it stands to reason that they have to enter through the main gate.

The side door and the back door are mostly some subordinates, or people with unequal status.

The Pope was obviously a distinguished guest to this nobleman, but the people of the church entered the city as a caravan, and strictly speaking, they could only be regarded as subordinates of the palace, and it was indeed a bit eye-catching to enter through the gate.

"It's okay, it's already embarrassing for your family."

"Our family is a member of the Cult of God, how can it be considered embarrassing,

The food and rooms are ready, so please check in first. ”

"Well, don't send a maid, one room, one bed board is enough."

"This?"

"Do as the Pope says, we're not here to enjoy it."

At this time, under the leadership of the Pope, the high-level of the Rising Sun God Cult did not have the extravagance of hundreds of years ago.

Except for the rigid need for food, the rest of the matter is no different from that of an ascetic.

The church in this state should be at its most combative.

According to the Pope's wishes, more than 20 elites of the Church were placed in an inconspicuous side courtyard.

All the waiters withdrew from the courtyard after bringing the food,

The food was plentiful,

The elite of the church can be bitter in other ways, but they are not low in food,

There's no way, they're all people who practice martial arts all year round, and the real ascetics who have suffered their stomachs are not qualified to become strong.

In the level of polishing the body to achieve quasi-knights, it is estimated that you will have to practice and scrap it.

Because there was no waiter, Hussein personally brought the meal to the Pope,

"Lord Pope, there is definite news in the south of the Southern Province that Thor the Dragon Knight of the Town Kingdom has arrived in Surrey City and is organizing a counterattack against the swamp trolls."

The dispatch of the Zhenguo Dragon Knight is difficult to conceal most of the time, after all, a dragon of dozens of meters can cause a movement wherever he goes.

The reaction of the royal capital to this rebellion of the southern trolls was much greater than that of the ogre plague in the north.

In fact, looking at the location of Zhenbeiguan, you can probably see the attitude of the kingdom towards Beidi.

It's just a little better than an enclave, it's really not a territory that can be given up at any time,

The bottom line of the kingdom in the northern territory is to keep the Zhenbei Pass natural insurance.

But it is definitely enough to care about the southern provinces,

The southern provinces mainly have more territories directly under the kingdom, and these are real benefits.

The commercial prosperity is not comparable to that of the Northlands, and even if the Northlands are gone, it will give the kingdom a headache at most.

But if two cities were to be lost in the south, it would make the kingdom tremble.

"Do you think we're doing the right thing this time?"

The Pope was not pleased with the good news that Saul had confirmed his departure, but asked Hussein a meaningful question.

"This..."

Hussein was speechless for a while, this time the trolls in the southern swamp were able to make such a big move, of course, thanks to the help of the church, in order to mobilize the power of the royal capital to clear the way for this plan,

Now it seems that the plan is going well, but the thing is very unorthodox, and even a little downward.

"You don't think that's right, do you?"

Hussein was a little unanswered by the question at this time,

This plan is what you set, and now you don't say it's right, how can I take it?

However, Hussein did have a lot of complaints about the Pope's arrangement for people from the southern diocese to cooperate with the troll invasion.

At this time, Hussein could only continue to remain silent.

"There will be a lot of people who will die because of our plan, and they are innocent."

"For the sake of the church, this is the first and last time."

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Although the Pope's words are addressed to Hussein, they are in fact reminding himself,

Or rather, it was more like comforting himself, he was uneasy in his heart.

In front of the Kingdom Library.

"See you tomorrow."

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow."

"Tomorrow, bring a little more flower cake, it's really delicious."

"yes, okay."

Richard is saying goodbye to the Messiah.

The flower cake was brought by Richard from the inn to satisfy his hunger in the library at noon.

Occasionally, a piece was given to the Messiah, and the Messiah fell in love with the taste.

In the past few days, Richard has been completely acquainted with the Messiah, and when he said goodbye, the Messiah not only took the initiative to say hello, but also asked Richard to bring some snacks.

That's a good sign.

In the past few days, Richard and Messiah have met in the library on time, and the two have sat together to read books and discuss research, from the history and culture of the kingdom to the myths and legends of the ancient elf empire.

The Messiah is knowledgeable, Richard is better at having a novel point of view, and the two always have endless topics to talk about, and when they part, they will have a sense of gain.
