24. The rules of another world

In less than four hours of travel, along the way, Lucheng encountered about three waves of blood crystal beast attacks.

The three waves of blood crystal beasts were all huge wolves, but because of their huge size, they became a live target for Lu Cheng the moment they appeared in the forest.

After the Lucheng team repelled this group of blood crystal beasts, General Hubert, who was terrified along the way, finally completely relieved.

Without the existence of the Lucheng team, just the first wave of Blood Crystal Beasts attacked, they would have ushered in a total annihilation.

At the same time, General Hubert handed Lucheng a more reliable map.

The map is a magical item with magical powers, and the borders of the country of Scarre and the borders of the surrounding countries are outlined in lines of light of various colors.

What's interesting is that these lines change in real time.

But these changes did not look so interesting to General Hubert.

Because... Their country's borders are shrinking.

The red light that Lu Cheng saw in the sky before was the border of the country of Scalley, not only Scalley, but all countries in the world defined their territory in this way.

This light comes from the leyline crystalline core beneath the country.

If the more mana is stored in the leyline crystal core, the greater the area covered by the light.

And the magic of the leyline crystal core comes from the people of this country, and General Hubert can't say exactly where it came about.

To put it simply, the more populous the country is, the more magic the leyline crystallization core will be, and the territory owned by the country will naturally expand outward.

AND PEOPLE LIVING UNDER THE LIGHT WILL RECEIVE A BUFF.

Lu Cheng understands that this buff will save people from disease, have greater strength and reaction speed, and have a certain chance to give birth to various great people with outstanding talents.

"And how do you define your national identity?"

Lu Cheng placed the map on the shelf next to the shifter and asked the general about it.

In the narrative, General Hubert also mentions the invasion of his own country's territory by the armies of other countries.

OTHER ARMIES WILL THEN RECEIVE A NEGATIVE BUFF THAT MAKES THEM TIRED AND EXHAUSTED.

"The people of our country are blessed by the leylines from birth." General Hubert showed Lucheng the mark on his forehead, a scarlet inverted triangle mark, "This is the mark that the people of ScarrΓ© will have, and everyone has a different place. ”

"And who in your country wants to emigrate to another country?" Lu Cheng asked another question that could be said to be very damaging to the old general.

"This ......," General Hubert really didn't know how to answer Lucheng.

When the topic was brought to this, Lu Cheng could also see a collapsing city wall appear in the distance, and a large number of scavenging birds were still circling in the sky.

Lu Cheng directly signaled the hoop to stop on the vehicle's radio, and at the same time applied the brakes himself.

The Pioneer, driven by the iron ring behind her, stopped in an instant, and the engine gradually stopped.

The city of the Radiant Sun has arrived.

"Your Excellency Lu Cheng, we were stationed in Huiri City a day ago, and there are only a few refugees left in it who have lost their homes." General Hubert said.

"You haven't met anything like a Blood Crystal Beast or a bandit?" Lu Cheng pulled the handbrake and asked.

"The Blood Crystal Beasts in Huiri City have basically been attracted to the direction of the royal capital, but it is not ruled out that there are still a few lingering nearby."

"That's it."

Lu Cheng opened the car door and jumped out of Pioneer II, and Lu Cheng observed the aborigines sitting in the other car, and they all left the buggy with the help of the pictorial.

As Lu Cheng expected, five of the seven refugees managed to experience the thrill of motion sickness.

"Lu Cheng, what's wrong with them?"

Princess Elena looked at the refugees and looked a little flustered.

"Motion sickness, the symptoms that people with poor physique will have when riding in a vehicle, dizziness and nausea are very normal, but this symptom will be relieved soon... Well, you can understand that they haven't been tested by this 'only' car. Lu Cheng gave her a more scientific explanation.

"Is it true that you have to test it if you want to tame it? I don't have any symptoms of vertigo, meaning I passed its test and got its acknowledgment? ”

Elena didn't understand the first half of Lu Cheng's explanation, so she focused on the part of the latter that she could understand.

She was in awe of the SUV like a powerful monster, but at the same time, Elena, who had experienced the 'power' of the SUV, also had a desire to tame a monster of this kind.

"No, if you really want to control it, you have to go through the driver's license test, from subject 1 to subject 4, you can take a C1 level is almost the same." Lu Cheng ruthlessly extinguished the hope that rose in the heart of the princess.

"What happens after it's all passed?" Elena immediately asked about Lu Cheng.

Finished... Elena seemed determined to tame one of these 'monsters', and although she didn't quite understand what Lu Cheng was saying, she understood that there were some other tests that she still had to go through.

"You still need to prepare 800,000, this thing is a military vehicle, the civilian version starts at 500,000, plus miscellaneous taxes to calculate you 600,000." Lu Cheng replied to the princess very seriously.

"Eight hundred thousand? Lucheng: Do you mean your country's money? Sound... It seems to be very expensive. ”

The most money Elena can remember hearing about was thirty thousand, and that was the price her mother had quoted many years ago when she was negotiating a big deal with someone from a neighboring country.

"It's a lot for ordinary people, but you have a mine at home, it's not much at all, but it's not something to discuss now."

"Pictorial, Iron Ring, you stay here to protect the civilians, Kite, you and I go to the city in front to investigate."

Lu Cheng gave an order to his team, and Noi ran to Lu Cheng's side at this time, gently tugging at Lu Cheng's sleeve.

'Going?' She held up the notebook in her hand and asked about Lu Cheng.

"It's just going to the city in front of me to investigate, and it won't take much time." Lu Cheng said.

Noi nodded slightly, and wrote a line in the notebook again.

I'll be obedient. ’

"Good."

Lu Cheng rubbed Nuoyi's long silver-gray hair and carried her into the passenger seat.

Getting along with this obedient priest girl for a short time gave Lu Cheng the illusion of raising a daughter.

"We decided to take two soldiers who could still fight."

General Hubert counted his soldiers, and only two of them were still fighting power.

"Walking into town and trying to be as secluded as possible... Our goal was to find a building in the city where we could temporarily stay and rest, got it? ”

Lu Cheng conveyed the objectives of the operation to General Hubert and his soldiers.

"A miner in Huiri City is well preserved, and I can lead the way where it can be used as a temporary station." General Hubert said.
