Chapter 255: Into the City

Norden City, located in the Imperial province of Oster, was the starting city of the Great Wall Project, and with the help of vampires, even the harbor was fenced off. The Great Wall of the Empire, spanning four provinces and connected by five cities, cut off the entire road to Kislev. Tens of thousands of undead creatures and humans, dwarves, and later the orcs who joined together performed this miracle, ten stories high, hundreds of meters wide (a combination of magic and technology), even standing there quietly can make people feel extremely heavy pressure, not to mention the starry cannon holes and trebuchets on the city walls, no one can imagine the scene of the entire city wall firing together.

"I remember the last time I came to the empire, I was still very young, and I also came to Norden City, but at that time it was like a fishing village, but I didn't expect that after the Chinese New Year, the city wall was built into the sea, although I saw it in the intelligence, but the gap between it and the description in the text is really big, and now I can understand what Petrolev said." Andrei stood on the bow of a medium-sized merchant ship and looked at the walls of the empire in the sea and said with emotion. Ten days have passed since he was forced to leave, and the original ten merchant ships have now become three, and the rest have all been sunk by the Kislev army, which is still because Petrov forcibly closed the city gate in the name of searching for traitors in the city after letting Andrei's family go, otherwise Andrei's family would not have been so lucky to escape from Holden's pursuit, and now the northern province has been completely split into two factions, one is the old faction dominated by Petrov, which has many elite troops in the north, and the other is naturally Prince Holden, Most of his troops were newly recruited, and the reason why Petrov was able to fight Holden was because King Kislev was worried about the Far North, and in order to stabilize the morale of the army, Petrolev had to be left behind.

"What did Petrolev tell you?" Victoria sat on the top of the ship and looked at the merchant ships waiting to be inspected, and now he couldn't wait to return to the bosom of his homeland, looking at the towering walls and the imperial flag, the excitement in her heart was almost irrepressible.

He said that only inside the Great Wall of the Empire could there be a sense of security. Oh, I have to say that after three days and three nights of pursuit, coming to the edge of this city wall, the sudden sense of security and calm is really uncomfortable. "Norden City, as the five fulcrum cities of the Great Wall, must have sufficient reserves to support the defense supply of the city wall he is responsible for, so now if you want to enter Norden City, whether on land or sea, you must accept a full range of inspections, verify personnel information, and must not carry any weapons and equipment, even fruit knives, and people who go out of the city, as long as the materials are not registered, are also prohibited from leaving the city, directly seized, and anyone who violates the above treaties and violently resists will be killed on the spot. So now all the merchant ships or private ships at sea are honestly queuing up for boarding and inspection, if you are skilled, it is no problem to cut in line, but you have to dare to rely on your own background to rush directly to the checkpoint, sorry, the cannon on the city wall will teach you to be a man in minutes.

"Ships ahead! Forward!! Forward! Please go to the designated location for inspection!! ”

"Quick! to us!! Hurry up!! Andrei's words Victoria didn't listen to them at all.

After the ship stopped at the designated position, the left and right sides were immediately hooked on both sides of the hull by four huge hooks with iron chains. Either pull the whole land and run, or tear me apart.

"Good afternoon, everyone! I'm the Imperial Norden City Defense Force, in charge of the security inspection of your ships, you have come all the way from Kislev, if there is nothing official to prove your identity, then I can only apologize to inform you, please go back the way you came. "There were seven soldiers on board, all of whom were wearing shields, carrying rifles, and swords pinned to their waists, looking around vigilantly, except for those who took the lead in speaking.

"Here you go!" Victoria was already eager to try, and when the soldier finished speaking, she immediately handed the badge that had been held in the palm of her hand for a long time to the leading soldier.

A unique badge in the shape of a golden eye, although it is worn out in many places, it is not difficult to see how beautiful it is, and on the back of the badge is a miniature version of the Imperial Griffin Banner, which is engraved with the number 099.

The leading soldier's expression changed greatly after seeing the token, and he took out the communication crystal on the spot and retreated behind the rest of the soldiers and began to confirm the information upwards, Andrei looked at Victoria who was also a little confused, but soon Victoria was moved to tears, only to see the leading soldier walk in front of her, straighten up and smash his right hand into a fist on the armor at the mouth of the heart, and said loudly, "Welcome the hero back to the motherland!" Thank you for your contribution to the motherland!! The Empire is fortunate to have you!! Please follow the guide boat to the shore first, and a helicopter will come to meet you later! With that, he handed back the badge to Victoria with both hands, gave her a communication crystal, and quickly evacuated the ship. Greeted by a large number of soldiers, the four merchant ships quickly passed through the security checkpoint, through the huge gate, and entered the harbor of Norden City.

"Toot toot!!" Although the whistles of various ships in the city walls had already been heard outside, when I came in, I found that this large seaport was simply bustling, with all kinds of ships interspersed on the sea, transporting goods, pulling people and outside the checkpoint were simply two worlds.

The four boats followed the guide boat and quickly docked, and a total of hundreds of people walked down from the boat, most of them were soldiers and their families who resolutely followed after hearing about Andrei's betrayal of the country, of course, Petrolev also made great efforts, otherwise these soldiers would not even be able to get out of the barracks.

"Sir! Hello! The City Defense Brigade salutes you! Welcome home! Who is His Excellency Andrei?! ”

"I'm Andrei!" Andrei finally had a chance to speak, the shock he had along the way was unprecedented, in Kislev, a piece of communication crystal is very precious, not to mention the communication crystal that can be saved, it can be sold for a sky-high price, but in the empire, a small soldier captain has a communication crystal in his hand, this gap is too big, and after entering the port, there is almost no interruption in the merchant ships coming in and out from the west of the continent, doesn't it mean that the empire's economy is about to collapse because of the mysterious disappearance of gold coins? Why are there so many freight scenarios? Looking at the shore, it is bustling with people, and you can see nimble elves on masts, green-skinned orcs working coolies, dwarves selling alcohol (weapons are forbidden) and even vampires walking generously down the street. This is what a strong country should look like, all-encompassing, common development, and now he has a new understanding of Petrov's words again, this sense of security is not only a sense of security in force, it is a feeling of being at home, comfortable, safe, no worries, elves are not afraid of being sold and eaten, orcs and vampires are no longer shouted and beaten, dwarves can also let go of hatred, everything is so happy.
