Chapter 511: The Blue Palace in Kevin Town
Kevintown is the most prosperous town in the whole of Wales, it is known as the fashion capital of the Kingdom of England, all the latest clothing and jewelry circulating in the Kingdom of England originate here, and it is also the capital of flowers in England, because there are a large number of flowers grown here, and flowers will bloom in any season, making this place immersed in a sea of flowers all year round.
Despite its bustling experience, Kevintown is not the political centre of Wales, as it is not the county seat of Wales, but an ordinary town, and the unusual place is that the Prince of Wales's Blue House is located here.
If you had to rate the ten most eccentric buildings in the entire world of Velon, the Prince of Wales' Blue Palace would definitely be one of them.
The reason why the Blue Palace is strange is because the entire palace is made of aquamarine stone from the building to the floor, which is not a very expensive material, and almost everywhere near the sea can find this kind of stone.
It's just that few people use this stone as a building material, because this stone has a very bad characteristic, that is, when it is hot, the stone will emit a rancid fishy smell, and if you stay next to this stone for a long time, it will make people dizzy and headache inexplicably, so in the past, this stone was also called the blood of Hakba.
Hakba is a legendary sea monster that is said to have blue blood and is highly poisonous.
Later, after the research of medical school, it was found that the reason why this aquamarine emits odor is mainly because this stone contains a very subtle fungus plant, which will emit odor after the surrounding temperature reaches a certain level, and this plant will also produce a kind of spores, which will cause some irritation to people after being inhaled into the body, and cause some irritation to people, making people dizzy and headache.
Because of this, when Prince Welsh VIII decided to use aquamarine as the building material for the palace more than 100 years ago, everyone thought he was crazy, and even the royal family was alarmed, and sent doctors to check whether Wales VIII really had a brain problem.
However, in the end, nothing was found wrong, and Welsh VIII still withstood all the pressure to build this uninhabitable palace out of aquamarine.
After the palace was built, Wales VIII did not live in it, but spent a lot of money to buy various flower seeds from all over the world and plant them around the Blue Palace, all over the surrounding area of Kevin.
After he completed this absurd act, he suddenly suffered a heart attack and died suddenly, leaving only an empty palace.
Later, Wales IX naturally did not want to live in a place like the Blue Palace, and because the cost of building the Blue Palace was too huge, so that he had financial problems after succeeding to the throne, and there was no money to push the Blue Palace to rebuild, so he could only put the Blue Palace here, and he himself lived in a property of the Prince of Wales in the national capital.
Because every summer the Blue Palace emits an extremely unpleasant stench, and the stench is all over the surrounding area of Kevin Town, if it is by the sea, this stench will not stay for too long, it will be blown away by the sea breeze, and it will not have any effect. But this is inland, and the surrounding basin terrain rarely has strong winds, so the stench lingers here for a long time.
The people who originally lived here couldn't stand the stench at all, and they didn't dare to demolish this Blue Palace, so they had to choose to move to other places to live, and over time, Kevin Town became a deserted town, and this place was completely deserted.
After more than a decade, Wales IX has emerged from the financial crisis and has returned to normal after more than a decade with the accumulation of heritage left by the previous princes of Wales.
Welsh IX, who had the funds under him, naturally began to think of the culprit who had impoverished him for more than ten years, so he began to think about demolishing the Blue Palace.
After that, he sent people to the town of Kevin, where the Blue Palace is located, to survey the terrain and prepare for dismantling.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that the surveyors who went to the Blue Palace sent someone to report and tell him that the Blue Palace had undergone incredible changes.
At first, Wales IX did not believe the words of these surveyors, so he filmed his right-hand men to go to the town of Kevin to check on the situation, but a few days later, his right-hand men also sent someone to report that the Blue Palace had changed inexplicably.
This time, Welsh IX began to take it seriously and decided to go to the Blue Palace to check on the situation himself.
On the second day, Wales IX came to the Blue Palace, although it was already winter, but the weather was extremely hot, not much worse than summer, originally Wales IX thought that he would smell a foul smell, but what he didn't expect was that not only did it not smell here, but there was a fragrance, and after entering Kevin Town, it was more like entering the sea of flowers, you can see all kinds of flowers everywhere, and the beauty of the scenery has never been seen before.
Later, he came to the Blue Palace, only to find that the fragrance he had smelled when he entered Kevintown had come from the Blue Palace, from the aquamarine stones that were supposed to emit a foul smell.
After making sure that the fragrance will not change, and not only will it not be harmful to the human body, but it will make people feel comfortable physically and mentally.
As a result, Wales IX's original plan to demolish the Blue Palace was also canceled, and he found that all the areas around Kevin Town were deserted, and it was expected that if the news of the Blue Palace spread, the surrounding land would definitely increase in price, so he immediately blocked the news and secretly began to buy the surrounding land.
However, although Wales IX's actions were as secretive as possible, they were still quickly noticed, and the situation in the Blue Palace was discovered.
For a while, everyone's eyes were focused on the Blue Palace, and even the royal family sent people to check on the situation, and then tried to find out what made the smell of Aquamarine become fragrant.
However, after repeated investigations, it was impossible to find any more useful reasons and details other than knowing that the smell of aquamarine turned from smelly to fragrant because of the surrounding flowers.
Afterwards, some people also tried to place the aquamarine in the flowers, trying to see if the aquamarine has changed, but the result is naturally nothing.
It is precisely because of the changes in the Blue Palace that the previous speculation of Wales IX has come true, making the land of Kevin Town much more expensive, and the people who originally left have returned to live in the town, and the Prince of Wales has also shifted the focus of career development from the capital to Kevin Town, and Kevin Town has become more and more prosperous.
Officially because the Prince of Wales has been running Kevin Town for a long time, his reputation in Kevin Town is very large, and the decrees of the Council in Kevin Town and the will of the King may not have much effect, but the Prince's orders can definitely be faithfully implemented.
When Leo walked out of the train station outside Kevintown, he could feel the love of the Prince of Wales throughout Kevintown, whether it was a house or a shop, you could see a silver filigree flag representing the Prince of Wales, or the two-headed lion badge of the Prince of Wales.
There was almost no need to inquire further, Leo easily knew from the chatter of the surrounding residents that the Prince of Wales was cultivating in the Blue Palace during this time, and at the same time, he also knew why the Prince of Wales had put his mind on him.
It turned out that not long ago, the Prince of Wales held a hunting event, he was hit by a fleeing wild boar to the waist, at first he thought it was just a trauma, did not care, but soon found that something was wrong with the body, after monitoring found that his kidneys were injured under the impact, and because they were not treated in time, they had begun to deteriorate, and it may be life-threatening soon.
At that time, the Prince of Wales had fallen into a coma, and the princess had to offer a reward for a cure for the prince, and during this time she tried many methods, but the results were ineffective, and she knew that a mysterious person met the princess and handed the princess a bottle of potion, and the prince of Wales quickly improved the injury in his waist after taking the potion, and he was able to move freely after a few days.
For a powerful person like the Prince of Wales standing at the top of the kingdom, money and power are no longer very important, a medicine that can bring the dead back to life is what they crave the most, no one knows if they will suffer fatal injuries next time, and they don't know if someone will be able to deliver a bottle of life-saving medicine to him in time next time, so it is best to keep this medicine in their own hands is the most correct approach.
However, it is clear that Leo's previous warning has reached the Prince of Wales, and the Prince of Wales should also know Leo's identity and abilities, and it can be heard from the conversations of some local residents that the Blue Palace has been placed under martial law, and it is seen that there are many princely guards stationed in the Blue Palace.
Leo was not in a hurry to trouble the Prince of Wales, but he found a place to stay first, and wandered around the attractions in and around the town with a playful mood.
The trouble he came to the Prince of Wales this time was not a sudden abrupt rise, but a deliberate decision, because he wanted to take this opportunity to solve some troubles from the authorities, so as not to always bother him inexplicably in the future.
That's why he asked the old butler to reveal his heart when someone came to inquire about his whereabouts, and then waited here for the other party to have enough time to prepare, and it was best to alarm some people in the Special Bureau, the royal family, and the Congress, so as to leave a deep impression on himself in the hearts of these people.
After that, he stayed in Kevin Town for two days, during which time soldiers and some strangely dressed people continued to come from outside and enter the Blue Palace, and the martial law of the Blue Palace became more and more severe, and even began to impose curfews and identity investigations in Kevin Town.
This move directly led to the cessation of various activities in Kevin Town, and a large number of unknown people fled, and Kevin Town, which was originally lively because of the arrival of the flower season, quieted down, and at this moment the ordinary residents in the town also felt that something was wrong.
The hotel where Leo lived had been checked on the day he checked in, but the person who had been checked was tricked by Leo with the Demon Hunter Seal, and then when Leo was walking on the street, someone checked it twice, and the inspection was far more rigorous than some important celebrations in the kingdom.
The preparation was almost over, and it stands to reason that Leo should start to act, but Leo did not go to the Blue Palace as originally planned, but ran to the Valley of Flowers located to the west of the Blue Palace, and played in the Valley of Flowers like an ordinary tourist.
This valley of flowers was built by King Welsh VIII himself, and there are a total of six such valleys around the town of Kevin, and most of the various flower seeds collected from various countries have been planted in these valleys.
It is also strange to say that the flower seeds planted in these flower valleys come from all over the world, and each seed adapts to a different climate and environment, so it stands to reason that most of these seeds should not germinate and grow, but the magic is that these seeds have survived in the flower valley, and they still grow vigorously without more than ten years of care, and because the seeds grow and bloom in different seasons, there are flowers in the flower valley all year round.
It is precisely because of this abnormal situation in the Flower Valley that the reputation of the mystery of the flower growth of the Flower Valley is not as good as the mystery of the smell of the Blue Palace, and many scholars engaged in plant growth research will come here to observe the growth of plants here, and many of these people even simply live in hotels outside the Flower Valley for easy observation and research.
There have also been people who have linked the mystery of the growth of flowers in the Flower Valley with the mystery of the smell of the Blue Palace, thinking that there must be some connection between the two, which makes the two abnormal situations occur at the same time.
It's a pity that there is no evidence to prove this hypothesis, but a very famous botanist found that when the weather is hot, the flowers in the flower valley rarely open, and even some tropical flowers that like sunlight will converge, and this period is also the time when the abnormal aroma in the Blue Palace is the strongest.
It's just that the research has stalled at this point, and subsequent research has not found any connection between the two.
Leo had been to another Flower Valley to the east of Kevin Town yesterday, and he was interested in Flower Valley because he had seen the record in the tourist brochure about Flower Valley.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that after entering the Valley of Flowers, his spiritual network found some unusual things in the Valley of Flowers, and it was in these Valley of Flowers that he found the little flower fairy he saw in the Black Forest.
To this day, Leo still remembers the scene he saw in the Black Forest, and although these little flower fairies were only insignificant dusty in front of the golden giant deer, Leo can still clearly remember the appearance of this magical creature.
In fact, when Leo collected all kinds of information and intelligence, he also collected a lot of information about the legends and mysterious creatures of the Black Forest, and the interesting thing is that among all the legends, there are the most stories about the little flower fairy, some of the stories in the little flower fairy are very evil, will lead the people who have strayed into the Black Forest into a deadly trap, and some of the little flower fairies are very kind, not only to help the lost leave, but also to give some small gifts to the lost.
The common feature of all accounts is that none of them can prove that the little flower fairy really exists, not even in the books of the wizards of the tower.
