Chapter 259: Temptation
Lynn flew thousands of meters in the air, looking down on the kingdom of the spring queen all the way. Condescendingly, Lynn discovered that the Spring City where they were located was only a small part of this huge island nation. The more he observed, the more surprised Lynn became, the heavens were too kind to this country.
First of all, the island is so big, no bigger than the Kingdom of Alabastan. And unlike the country where rain is scarce, there is plenty of water and fertile land, making it a very suitable island for human habitation.
Located on the south coast of the island nation, Spring City is blocked by an east-west mountain range, with only two winding valleys to navigate. On the surface, this mountain peak blocks traffic, but in fact it protects the great plain in the center of the island.
Take a look at the capital of the seven seas to see how terrifying a tsunami can be to the islands. But this mountain peak perfectly protects the interior of the island from the invasion of super tsunamis. In addition, its height does not intercept rain clouds and does not affect the rain of the plains.
Not only that, but there is also a mountain peak on the north shore of the island, which is facing the windless zone. In this way, the sea kings, which are common in the windless zone, cannot pose too serious a threat to the island.
Behind the peaks is a vast plain, with a river flowing down from the South Mountain, turning a bend through the plain and flowing into the sea from the east side of the island. In contrast, another river is left from the North Mountain, which flows out into the sea from the west side of the island after turning a corner.
The vast plains, coupled with the well-developed water system, naturally make it quite convenient to develop agriculture. There are large fields on the plains, neatly planted with all kinds of crops, and many farmers are busy in them.
Such a developed agriculture is quite rare in island countries, because of the tsunami, the scarcity of the plains, and climate problems, most of the islands are unable to provide food for themselves. The Capital of the Seven Seas is a prime example of this, not only is it impossible to plant, but even the entire city is in danger of sinking into the sea. It is conceivable that the grain produced here must be the object of large imports from the surrounding islands.
On both sides of the plain, there are quite dense forests. Lynn saw quite a few people logging at the edge of the forest. If you think about the mineral transport teams on the mountain roads, timber and mining are well developed.
Lynn looked at this place and smacked his tongue, this is definitely the chosen place, otherwise how to explain such a superior natural environment.
This island would have killed the lifeblood of a small island like the Capital of the Seven Seas, without which it would have provided abundant and cheap raw materials, and the Isle of Artisans would not have been able to talk about it.
Tall and majestic mountain peaks, rushing rivers, vast and fertile plains, dense deep forests, and well-developed road transportation. The natural conditions here are much better than those of Alabastan.
Even the city of Spring, which is vulnerable to the threat of a tsunami, is blocked by the capital of the seven waters, and it is said to be a safer inner plain. It's really a good place to live, much stronger than Sky Island.
Spring City is just one of seven cities, but it's a bit special because of its location by the sea. There were also three cities on the plain in a triangular shape, and the royal palace was built in the center of the plain, right at the bend of the two rivers, and the royal city was established.
"I really should let them come here to see it, that's what the kingdom should be like." Lynn thoroughly sorted out the geography of this place before flying towards the royal city.
The guards around the royal city are relatively tight, and you can see soldiers with weapons everywhere, but close to the central palace, the guards become scarce, but I think the real strong should also be in this range.
In such a rich place, it would be strange if there were no strong people to guard it. Lynn was now a falcon, and just by bypassing from high altitude, he felt a faint sense of threat coming from below.
This shows that at least one person with a domineering ability can be alert to Lynn's arrival after constantly scanning the surroundings of the palace.
But one such person. It wasn't enough to make Lynn retreat. Lynn lowered her altitude and disarmed her in mid-air, landing directly outside the palace gates.
Lynn's descend from the sky caused the guards guarding the palace to nervously raise their weapons and surround them. The leading general asked in a deep voice: "Who are you, trespassing on the palace is a capital crime!" ”
Lynn raised her hands to show no malice, "My name is Koran Lynn, Duke of the Kingdom of Alabastan, and I have come to see Her Majesty the Queen of Spring. ”
The general asked quietly, "Do you have the credentials to prove your identity?" ”
Lynn spread her hands, "In a hurry, I didn't carry the voucher." However, my strength is the proof. The Seven Martial Seas Krokdal died at my hands, if you don't believe me, you can give it a try. ”
As soon as these words came out, all the guards immediately became suspicious. Dare to say such things, even if the person is fake, it is estimated that the strength will not be much worse.
The general glanced at Lynn suspiciously, "You wait here for the time being, and I'll go in and report." ”
"Okay, please." Lynn had known that this would be the kind of reaction, so fame was very important, and even notoriety was enough to earn all kinds of benefits. It is no wonder that the young people of the world, who do not care about good and evil, worship the sea thieves who have been rewarded.
……
After a while, the general walked out, "Your Majesty, please come from the Kingdom of Alabastan. ”
Lynn followed the general into satisfaction and walked in, although the other party couldn't believe in his identity like that, as long as he could get in.
Through the corridors of the palace, Lynn was ushered into a palatial hall, where four men of different looks stood on either side, and in the middle of the throne sat a lazy and luxurious woman, who was supposed to be the current Queen of Spring.
Lynn stepped forward and bowed, "Duke of Alabaster, Kiran Lynn, greetings to Her Majesty the Queen of Spring!" ”
The queen said indifferently: "No matter who you are, let's say, what is the purpose of coming here?" ”
Lynn smiled casually, "Your Majesty spoke happily, but I wasn't lying. I settled Crockdahl for Alabastan and suppressed the rebellious Baroque studios, and I think your country should also receive the news. ”
"No matter what, I still can't prove that you are that person. Just as you are that person, what are you here for? The queen did not dwell on Lynn's identity, and asked sharply.
"Your Majesty can see me as a mercenary, of course the highest of the kind, the kind dedicated to the rulers of various countries. I would like to ask Your Majesty directly, is there anything that is difficult to solve? ”
"Hehehe, what a big breath. What if I don't have anything I need your help with? The queen was a little amused, and glanced at Lynn. Originally, she was willing to meet Lynn, but she was just a little curious about the ability to fly, and now she wanted to end this meeting.
Lynn clenched her fists and laughed, "It must be because Her Majesty doesn't know me well enough." I am willing to test the strength of the palace guards for Your Majesty. ”
"Bold! Your Majesty, allow me to take down this arrogant fellow. "A tall and muscular warrior stepped towards Lynn and asked the queen for battle.
The queen waved her hand, "Don't worry, if he is really the one who defeated Klockdal, then he is qualified to say such things." ”
The general retreated in dismay, glaring at Lynn. Lynn smiled back, the four of them were not enough to pose a mortal threat to him, and he could be said to have nothing to fear.
"Well, a giant sea king has recently arrived near the west coast and threatens passing ships. Considering that you are able to fly, if you can destroy this sea king in three days, then I will give you more trust. Do you dare to accept it? ”
Lynn smiled: "It's just a sea king, please inform the West Coast to prepare to receive the results, I can complete the task in two hours at most." I hope that next time, with His Majesty's real cooperation. ”
With that, Lynn turned and strode out of the hall, turning into a green falcon in the courtyard and heading away into the sky.
The queen on the throne changed her relaxed and lazy demeanor just now, and shouted: "Bharata. ”
A man in a robe stepped forward, "Your Majesty, he did leave and was speeding towards the West Coast. And the speed is increasing all the time, oh! Oh, my God! ”
"What's wrong?" The people around looked tense and asked one after another.
"He's already tearing through the atmospheric barrier, and at this rate, he's about to be out of my range." After a while, the man in the robe opened his eyes helplessly, "Your Majesty, the minister is incompetent. ”
The queen frowned and asked him to push down. "General Gulhan, General Babur, what are your chances of winning against him?"
The gatekeeper general stepped forward and smiled helplessly: "Your Majesty, if you are sure, from the beginning when he appears, the minister will take him down." However, my intuition tells me that the other party is very strong, so ......"
The other general nodded, "Indeed, he gives people a very extraordinary sense of oppression, and not making a move with him was the right choice." I'm afraid, his victory over Klockdahl was not a lie. ”
The queen nodded, "Then wait until he returns." If he is really that strong, there is indeed a task that can be given to him. ”
Several ministers looked at each other and vaguely guessed what the queen meant. A middle-aged man said with some hesitation: "Your Majesty, didn't we make an agreement with the revolutionary army Dacheng?" Is it ......?"
The queen glared at the other party impatiently, "This king has repented, how is it?" If he can do it, what other revolutionaries will I look for? Wait for them, incite those civilians to rebel? ”
The middle-aged man suddenly didn't dare to speak, took a step back, and waited quietly.
