Section 175 Cities
Half an hour later, a wide oil road appeared ahead, and Chen Xing stepped on the accelerator, and the armed crickets soared to a speed of 150 kilometers per hour. The wind was blowing so much that people couldn't open their eyes, Chen Xing fumbled on the console, found the switch of the canopy, and pulled it down.
"Click"
With a soft sound, the canopy rises from the trunk and covers the vehicle. The interior of the car became a sealed space, the speed of the armed crickets increased again, and the hands on the dial turned to 200 kilometers per hour.
After exiting a section, a spiral-shaped approach bridge appears in view. Chen Xing slowed down, drove onto the approach bridge, and entered the highway. Above the entrance hangs a sign in white letters on a green background that reads: Ambergris River United Kingdom National Highway Section 1809.
The road has become wider, from four lanes in both directions to twelve lanes in both directions, which is three times wider.
"You have entered the national highway, the two lanes on the right are slow lanes, the speed limit range is 60 to 120 kilometers per hour, the middle three lanes are fast lanes, the speed limit range is 120 to 200 kilometers per hour, and the left lane is the extreme speed lane, and the speed limit is not less than 200 kilometers per hour"
After driving on the highway, the on-board computer of the armed cricket automatically connects to the navigation network of the highway, and the sound of a female mechanical synthesis is heard from the loudspeaker.
"Buzz"
Chen Xing entered the speed lane from right to left, and stepped on the accelerator directly to the end. The V12 engine let out a huge roar, and the pointer soared to three hundred kilometers per hour. An indescribable thrill filled his head, as if an electric current was flowing through every cell.
Every man has a racing dream, a roar of the engine, and a life of unbridled freedom. Chen Xing also likes drag racing, but he was too poor in his first two lives and didn't have the opportunity to drive a good car. The first life envied others to drive Ferrari, Bentley, Jaguar, BMW, the second life envied others to drive the Dream Flying Shadow, Blue Saucer, Meteor Fire, land shuttle, the third life finally drove a sports car, although it is the first gear, but it is equivalent to the BMW five series on the earth, which is a small dream.
The national highway is brightly lit, and there is a street lamp up to 20 meters high every 100 meters, and the visual distance is extremely far. The neon billboards on both sides kept flashing, and the electronic road signs above turned up rows of bright green reminders, and the wasteland was completely two worlds.
The highway was built with the investment of the Maran royal family, and was originally intended to run through most of the cities along the river in the United Kingdom, strengthening the closeness of the kingdom. In practice, however, most principals were reluctant to use highways directly through the country, as this would reduce the independence of the territory, so the national highways were used in sections, mainly between large cities within the principality.
Seeing that the plan went bankrupt, the Malan royal family also terminated the follow-up investment.
The Red Dragon Principality has a large land area, occupying half of the northern wilderness, and its national strength ranks among the top five in the entire kingdom, but the infrastructure is very average, and the national highway only connects Raven City and Monitor Lizard City. The biggest reason for this is that the wilderness produces too little, and the environment is poor, and the maintenance of the roads is too expensive to be worth the investment.
"Boom Boom"
Heavy container trucks swept past the side, making a loud air friction sound. Chen Xing gripped the steering wheel with both hands and drove with full concentration. At such high speeds, a small mistake can lead to a car crash.
However, his danger perception gives him the talent of a super racer, and he can sense the slightest hint of wind and grass to avoid danger.
After another half an hour, an endless field of green wheat came into view. Whenever the wind blows, the waves of wheat are stacked on top of each other, like the sea. This marked his entry from the wasteland into the Ambergris River Valley. There is plenty of water and fertile land. As far as the eye can see, there are many water towers and ditches.
Huge agricultural machinery is parked in the field. It's mid-April, just over a month after planting, and the wheat has grown to more than half a meter tall. There are sporadic scarecrows in the fields to drive away birds.
Chen Xing's car is extremely fast, there are more and more billboards on both sides, and the neon lights are getting more and more dazzling. Turning a big corner, a brightly lit high-rise appeared on the horizon.
Among the four major cities of the Red Dragon Principality, Daling Mountain is the mining city, Gray Horn City is the city of wilderness and industry, monitor lizard city is the city of war, and Raven City is the city of trade.
In the middle of the city, there is a skyscraper that soars into the sky. In the midst of the towers, it is like standing out from the crowd. It is the landmark building of Raven City, "Crow's Nest", with a total of 333 floors, including lightning rods, a height of more than 1,000 meters, which is the tallest building in the northern part of the entire Ambergris River, so it is also called "Crow's Nest in the Clouds".
In fact, the location of the crow city is not good, as far as the eye can see, the rear of the crow city is the towering mountain range of Chiyan Mountain.
On the map, it's a dead end. However, the Principality of Chiyan is located inland, and the only entrance to the river is the tributary next to Raven City, through which all merchant ships have to pass. Raven City and the Duchy of River Sparrow are only separated by a river. Invisibly, Raven City became the trading center of the three principalities.
Under the high-speed driving, Chen Xing soon entered the boundary of Crow City. Coming down from the national highway, a section of the road was opened, and a fork in the road appeared. An oversized LCD screen is erected in the middle, and there are electronic railings at the intersection on both sides.
For suspended vehicles, please take the left passage and enter the city directly
For wheeled vehicles, please take the right side of the passage, park your vehicle, and transfer to the subway or transit bus to enter the city
Chen Xing's armed crickets are wheeled vehicles, so naturally they can only take the right side of the passage. The management of large cities is very strict, and in order to protect the environment and urban hygiene, wilderness vehicles are not allowed to enter. Most of the cars in the wilderness are wheeled, because wheeled vehicles have the advantages of low cost, easy repair, and large load capacity, which can meet the needs of wilderness transportation.
Before coming here, he had made an appointment with the others to meet in parking lot 59.
Moments later, Chen Xing followed the instructions of the electronic road sign and parked the armed cricket in the No. 59 parking lot. There is a 24-hour convenience store at the entrance of the parking lot, Chen Xing bought a cup of coffee and sat on a rattan chair at the door waiting for others.
It was about two hours before the remaining three people and the caravan's vehicles arrived at the parking lot. Next, the four of them packed the supplies on the cart and called a hovering truck in the city through the clerk at the convenience store.
The shape of the car is the same as that of a van on Earth, except that it has no wheels and is suspended half a meter in the air. After loading the things into the car, the middle-aged businessman also completed the procedures for Chen Xing, Cassie, and Danny to enter the city, and gave each of them a red electronic watch for temporary status. This kind of watch is called the "red watch", and the style is similar to the black watch, but the function is far from the same, and it can only provide proof of identity and some basic information query.
"Sir, where are you going?" asked the driver, who got into the city truck.
"Wilcottez Hotel." According to the memory of the previous life, Chen Xing reported the location.
"Ah" The driver frowned, thought for a while, and asked with some uncertainty, "Will Cortes Hotel, is there a place for it?"
Chen Xing suddenly remembered that at this point in time, the Wilcotez Hotel had not yet been built, and immediately changed his words, "Big Banyan Hotel." ”
"Yes, sir." The driver started the car, the body slowly levitated, then turned out of the parking lot and drove in the direction of the city.
