Chapter 12: The Camp
Ekhtadon, 10 o'clock in the afternoon.
Evan and Renee walked to the courtyard outside the office one after the other, and the Sun Rim, pulled by eight golden war horses, had stopped at the bottom of the stairs and waited for a long time.
The open-top golden carriage is carved with pictures of the golden iron horse, as if infused with the essence of an epic, and it gives people a sense of sacredness and solemnity when viewed from afar. The seats are flanked by roaring lion-shaped armrests, the seats are long enough for two people, and are covered with a thick layer of red upholstery.
"It's been a long time, the last time I rode in this car, it was more than four years ago......"
Ivan walked down the stairs and looked at the golden war horse in front of him with a mane like a lion, and quickly remembered the memories of the past.
The first time they met, these eight golden war horses were also arrogant, not only showing a contemptuous attitude, but also raising their hooves to break through the floor to demonstrate to him. It made him almost look out in front of Eru Lomei, and he had to use the Sun Gold Sutra to violently suppress it, and finally he could barely control it.
But this time, the eight golden war horses seemed to feel the vast sea of light energy in his body, not only did they not show a little temper, but also lowered their heads and made a bowed appearance.
"Have you become a good person?"
Ivan touched the mane of the warhorse, and the latter narrowed his eyes like red carbon balls, revealing a look of enjoyment.
"It's so much cuter!"
He walked up to the carriage along the pedals laid by the servants, sat down with a big sword, and beckoned to Rennie: "I really miss it when I think about it, you accompanied me in the car last time, so let's come up together this time." β
β...... Yes!"
Rennie's expression stiffened unnaturally, and she replied with a sneer, then stepped onto the platform in front of the carriage and grabbed the reins.
"Let's go!"
As Ivan's words fell, he circled around the courtyard of the Sun Palace, running like a wide straight road. It was like an airplane flying, and the speed was getting faster and faster, and wisps of intense flames emanated from the wheels, like a substantial cushion under the wheels.
Whooshββ!
The golden warhorse trampled on the flames, suddenly left the ground, and soared into the sky with a flame trail.
......
The chariot of the sun galloped across the sky, its wheels burning with golden threads, the soft afternoon sun filling the sky, and the neighing of warhorses piercing the sky. In the endless sea of clouds, the flaming chariot of the sun is like a flaming meteor, leaving a golden and shining golden trail through the clouds.
Ivan gripped the armrest with one hand and leaned half of his body on it, looking sideways at the scenery below. I felt that the city receded as quickly as if it had been swept away by a flood, and the rumbling wind around me was like thunder. However, there was no wind pressure in the carriage, and it seemed to be isolated by the flames that surrounded him, and there was only a soft breeze blowing on his side.
The female adjutant stood on the platform in front of the carriage with the reins in her hand, her clothes fluttering, and in front of her was the golden sun, which gilded her military uniform with brilliant gold trim.
"Let's go to the Holy Army camp first. He admired Rennie's beautiful back and reminded meekly.
"Yes!" the female adjutant immediately took the order, not realizing Ivan at this time.
With the vigorous neighing of the war horse, the Sun Imperial Rim quickly used the boundary of the royal city, and after crossing the vast forest, he came to the sky above a jungle surrounded by green water.
"This is the best place to set up a large camp, not only by the water of the royal city, but also by land nearby. The geographical location is high, as long as you build an observation deck, you can see it all over the place within a radius of ten miles. If you build a fortification along the water, you will have a natural moat. More importantly, this place is close to the tributaries of the Holy River, and once there is a danger around Wangji, the Holy Army can go down the river and quickly arrive at the scene after receiving the order. The female adjutant explained in great detail.
"Yes, you have a good eye. β
Evan looked at the jungle below, and after radiating his spiritual power, he felt that the terrain here was indeed suitable for stationing a large army.
"Then please send an engineering team and start building the camp. Renee's expression relaxed.
"Don't worry, lower the chariot and show me around. β
"Yes!"
The female adjutant immediately tightened the reins and manipulated the golden war horse to circle around the jungle, decelerating and descent in circles, with a spiral-shaped golden trajectory, slowly falling to the earth.
"Don't land completely, stay twenty meters above the ground. β
"Yes!"
With Renee's crisp response, the Sun Imperial Rim descended to a height of twenty meters, and then kept a distance from the ground and swept through the air. Evan's spiritual power then radiated, forming a reconnaissance circle with a diameter of 100 meters, and scanning the jungle inside and out along the flight trajectory of the golden war horse.
After making sure that there was no trace of human activity in the jungle at this time, he got up from the seat of the car, walked over to Rennie, and deliberately whispered in her ear:
"That's it, continue to fly along the border of the jungle. β
"Your Majesty, who are you!?" The female adjutant's tall figure trembled slightly, only to feel crispy and numb in her heart, and her face suddenly turned red, and a series of questions also surfaced in her mind.
"How much time do you think it will take for the engineering team to level this jungle? He lowered his head and asked deliberately close to her ear.
"If you send the Guardians to help, it will take about three days. Rennie replied, holding back the tingling sensation in her earlobes, pretending to be safe and sound.
"Wouldn't it be nice that I came to save three days for the engineering team. β
The golden light in the depths of Ivan eyes suddenly exhaled, and a golden sun wheel was printed on his heart, and countless fine pitch-black tracks appeared all over his body. The sun wheel contracted rapidly in the blink of an eye, then expanded and glowed, and the golden stream of light overflowed with black trails in the blink of an eye.
Boom Boom ββ!
With the Sun Imperial Rim as the center, an arc of escaping golden electricity began to burst out in the air, and a rotating spherical force field quickly took shape, enveloping the entire chariot like a transparent glass cover.
"Go to the jungle center. He maintained this state and said eagerly.
"I see. Renee immediately understood what he meant, and with a flick of the reins, he manipulated the golden horse to turn the distance, turning into a golden flame that slammed into the center of the jungle.
Relying on the astonishing speed of the golden warhorse, it only took less than ten seconds for them to reach their destination.
At that moment, a hand covered Renee's eyes, and golden flames poured out from the inside out. Unleash a circle of flames that expands rapidly, and sweep towards the jungle in all directions.
Rumbleββ!
It was as if a meteorite had fallen to the ground, and in an instant the surging light engulfed the entire jungle, and after a moment of silence, a deafening explosion was heard in the surrounding air. When the glare disappeared, at the end of the sight, the world was quiet again, but the jungle had been destroyed to a scorched earth.
"It's done. Ivan nodded in satisfaction, then withdrew his palm to hide the bright light for the female adjutant.
After ......Reini regained his sight, he saw that his vision was full of scorched earth, and he quickly tightened the reins, allowing the golden horse to hover in midair.
"Now that the jungle is completely gone, what part of the terrain do you think needs to be transformed?" said Ivan looked at his masterpiece with a thoughtful look.
"Your Majesty, your power is like a god descending into the world. β
The female adjutant looked around in a daze, her ruby pupils contracted slightly, sniffing the scorching smell in the air, and couldn't help but sigh:
"In the face of such a great power, who would dare to disobey your will? As long as the royal power is integrated step by step and the corrupt forces of the empire are cleansed, whether it is the dreadbeast or those beast barbarians, all enemies will be wiped out like this forest!"
"That's a good point, but now is not the time to talk about it. β
Ivan looked at her crisp red hair, and his mood became relaxed, and he turned his gaze to the earth below: "Let's talk about what else is needed here, for example...... A wide road to the outside world. β
As soon as the words fell, the light on the surface of the white cloud curtain above the sky converved, forming a huge golden sun wheel.
Boom Boom Boom ββ!
The next moment, straight and dazzling pillars of golden light fell from the sky, exploding a circle of gunpowder smoke waves that rose into the sky. Bombarding the scorched earth in a straight line, smoothing everything in its path, carving out a straight path through the rugged and varied terrain, and forcibly connecting to the royal city road to the outside world.
"This reduces the number of working hours by a few days. Ivan thought about it with satisfaction.
"It's ......"
Renee was dazzled by it, two red glows appeared on her pretty face, she stretched out her hand to point to the river on the northwest side, and subconsciously blurted out:
"You see, that stretch of the river is obviously too narrow and there is a danger of flooding in the summer. β
"Then broaden it a bit. β
With these words, another narrow and dazzling golden beam of light fell from the sky, and swept along the edge of the river. Like a spear thrown by the gods, it more than doubled the river channel while lifting a burst of water mist into the sky.
"Also, the southwest side of the camp is a little uneven!"
"Flatten it. β
The golden sun wheel in the canopy suddenly shrank more than doubled, enveloping the rocky ground on the southwest side of the scorched earth area, and then shot out slender golden beams of light. It's like a laser pimple, flattening all the 'acne' all over the ground.
"It's a good place to build an observatory!"
"Just pile it up. β
The telekinetic power instantly enveloped the land, and the charred black soil suddenly surged up, and stacked upwards like waves, suddenly forming a square mound covering an area of about twenty meters.
"There is a need for a cistern in the camp. β
"Fried. β
"That's right, one path is not enough. It is better to have three, one to the royal city, one to the coast, and one to the tributary of the holy river!"
"It's going to take a while...... Let's take our time!"
One by one, one by one
In the evening, the sun sets its long afterglow over the tranquil wilderness, and the foliage, rocks, and dry saline ground are dyed bronzed. Three passages, carved out entirely by violence, radiated down the perimeter of the camp and spread into avenues leading in all directions.
"That's perfect. β
Rennie's eyes glowed overlooking Siye, his face was flushed with a strange red glow, and his short fiery red hair was refreshing and handsome. Subconsciously applauded gently, the moist cherry lips opened one by one, and exhaled wisps of hot breath.
"Happy?" asked Ivan coldly.
"Hmm!" the female adjutant nodded vigorously subconsciously, then looked sideways at him.
At the moment when Renee turned his head, Ivan immediately stepped forward, wrapped one hand around her thin waist, the other hand held her jade back, and lowered his head to kiss the pair of perfectly lined but juicy soft lips.
