Chapter 125: Grand Xiongdu
Entering the Inland Sea, marks only a quarter of the entire itinerary remaining.
The captain came out of the wheelhouse and felt the friendly sea breeze blowing in the inland sea, and even his mood became happy.
The captain opened his arms as if he were the host: "Welcome to the most magnificent city ever seen by mankind, the Holy City of the Lion!" ”
Shen Fei didn't react a little, and the captain hurriedly explained: "From passing by the stone statue, it is equivalent to entering the scope of the Holy City. The entire inland sea, known as the Royal Sea, is located on a small island a hundred miles away. By the afternoon, we'll be in Port-au-Prince, and if it's fast enough, we might be able to catch up with a relaxing tea time. ”
Shen Fei couldn't wait to get to the dock.
I don't know when I climbed the mast, stood on a high lookout and looked into the distance, fluttering my ears and looking very excited.
After all, it is now a pig that has entered the city, and it is fundamentally different from the country pigs in Turkshire who are locked behind the Jasmine Inn, and it is even more expensive.
Pork in the city is much more expensive than in the countryside.
As the ship moved eastward, Shen Fei saw the small island where the Imperial Navy was stationed as the captain had just mentioned.
Several dockyards operate around the clock, manufacturing large-tonnage ships. Dozens of warships with artillery are docked at the dock, neatly arranged on the pier, as if a steel giant beast on the sea is hitting the waves in an angry tide.
As the ships continued to advance, the appearance of the Holy City gradually appeared in front of everyone.
Including Fat Tiger, who also visited the Holy City for the first time, and one of the few exchanges between it and Lucien was also through the spiritual exchanges in the Warrior Monk's Zen Temple.
The grandeur of the Holy City is far beyond Shen Fei's imagination.
Shen Fei originally thought that he had seen countless magnificent buildings or scenes in the real society, and he would definitely not be shocked by the scenes in the game. Even if the three clans jointly went to the Lonely Mountain to exterminate the evil dragon before, they didn't feel so shocked when they saw the evil dragon.
But when the appearance of Xiongdu gradually rose from the horizon, Shen Fei stood in place, shocked for a long time.
The first thing that catches your eye is a warrior in armor, his hands pressed on the hilt of his sword, and a huge long sword dangling from his chest. Just a long sword, at least 100 meters long, huge in size even bigger than the two statues at the mouth of the sea.
The cloak on the warrior's body blends in with the whole city.
Shen Fei looked at the sculpture for a while and found that the sculpture of the warrior guarding the Holy City was not Lucian.
"Captain, who is this statue?" Shen Fei originally thought that the statue of the Holy City must also be a second dog, but after looking at it, he found that it was not. The master of the dignified Lion Holy City, the huge statue at the door of his house turned out to be not himself, and now it was Shen Fei's turn to be confused.
The captain took a puff of dry smoke, spit out in the wind and sprayed himself on the face, but his expression was very enjoyable, and said, "That statue, that's the statue of Fei Gong." ”
Fei Gong.
This is the honorific title that people have for Grand Duke Ferdinand.
"If you want me to say, Fei Gong's statue should appear in the Inland Sea, and replace the faceless statue on the right." This is the voice of almost all the people. They didn't know the origin of the faceless statue on the right, they only knew that Fei Gong was born and died for the empire, and his heart was broken. The Four Saints of the Empire, each of them is more qualified to appear in the Inland Sea than the Faceless Statue.
Shen Fei was immersed in the magnificent scene of Xiongcheng and did not refute the captain's words.
It's normal for them to think like this, one is the person who appears in front of them every day, and the other is a character who has never even heard of it, do you need to say which one you have a good impression of?
"My lord, Port-au-Prince is coming soon." The captain commanded the boatman to get busy, put away the mast and adjust the rudder to prepare for berthing.
Although the port was called Port Joshua, the people called it Port Prince in order not to call the little prince by his name.
Shen Fei saw a lot of fine workmanship and gilt inlaid big ships at the wharf, and the boats were elegantly shaped like black swans in the lake. There are also large ships made of fine iron, and the sound of the humming whistle is like using dwarven steam technology.
The ships of the elves and dwarves, all bearing the totems of their respective races, came only for trade.
The elves and dwarves on the ship looked at the small boat that sailed into the harbor, and also saw Shen Fei and his party on the boat. Shen Fei saw only indifference in the other party's eyes.
If the Three Hills Council had been established at that time, this would not have happened!
It's just that Shen Fei can't be blamed for this kind of thing, after all, no one expected him to be kicked off the line on the eve.
As long as it is one day later, the history of the three tribes will be completely rewritten.
The ships docked in the harbor, tied to the cables, and connected to the dock by a single plank.
Bidding farewell to the captain and his party, Shen Fei stepped on the land of the Holy City.
Shen Fei was not in a hurry to do the task, there were less than thirty minutes before he went offline, and the top priority was to find a place to stay first.
The wharf was full of unloading manpower and horse-drawn carriages. Along the pier all the way to the east, a straight and wide avenue leads to the Holy City.
The Holy City is made of huge white granite, and the whole city glows a dreamy white in the sunlight.
The walls of the city continue to wind upwards, dividing the entire holy city into three areas: upper, middle and lower. At the highest point is the dome and gardens of the Imperial Palace, which overlooks the entire Holy City. The middle of the city is a business district and a wealthy area, and the center is the familiar Gothic style, the Cathedral of the Holy Light, which is made up of spires. The most striking thing is that next to the Holy City, there is a suspended city full of magical runes, and the holy city is connected by a pontoon bridge between the holy city and the suspended city.
As you can tell from the magic runes, this is where mages practice magic.
The lowest part of the Holy City is where the common people live, and it is also the most densely populated.
Shen Fei walked under the statue of Fei Gong holding the suspended sword in both hands with two pigs and one tiger, and there was a feeling that the sword of Damocles was hanging above his head.
After Shen Fei entered the city, he found a cheap hotel in Xiacheng District.
The innkeeper has seen a lot of hunters with pets, and he has seen a lot of hunters with tiger pets, so it's not unusual.
But when it was Fuman's turn, the innkeeper couldn't help but put on his glasses, looked at them several times, and asked uncertainly, "If I'm not mistaken, is your pet a pig?" ”
Fuman himself came from a small place, and when he came to the center of the human empire for the first time, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Now that he was taken out by the innkeeper alone to ask, he suddenly stumbled nervously, and looked at Shen Fei with a look of help.
Shen Fei didn't answer for him, but nodded encouragingly, motioning for him to say it himself. There is inertia in this kind of thing, you can help once or twice, but then Fu Man will default in his heart, he is an inferior person in the countryside, and he will be afraid to communicate with others.
Everyone has this feeling of entering an unfamiliar environment, but if you want to overcome it, you still have to rely on yourself.
Fuman received encouragement from the young master, took a few deep breaths, and his expression was extremely serious: "Don't look at it as a pig, it can save my life!" ”
