Chapter 118: To the Royal Capital

In addition to the matter of the two direct crown princes, the various forces in the royal capital are also a little ready to move, including those collateral blood relatives of the Shattered Star Dynasty who are also eyeing the throne, coupled with the scourge of the rift in time and space, the originally thriving Star Kingdom seems to have reached the verge of breaking out into great turmoil.

In this case, the current royal capital Xingyao City is a powder keg, which may detonate at any time, and it doesn't seem like a good choice to get involved, it is impossible for Lothar not to know this, so why does he want Link to go to the royal capital now? Is it a bad intention?

No kidding, Lothar is now a fanatic of Link, and it's not reliable to say that he wants to harm Link than to say that he's actually a woman. Then, the situation should be as stated in the letter, it was Lothar who saw that treating Sylvanas would bring great benefits to the Father's Cult, so he lobbied Link to treat Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Thinking of this, Link called the high-level to discuss the matter together, in this regard, some people agreed with Lothar's proposal, some people objected, and those who opposed it were mainly worried about Link's safety, after all, the last trip to Bath City almost had an accident, God knows if there will be problems again when going to Star City this time.

However, after thinking about it for a while, Link finally decided to go, because he knew very well that theocracy was never a political power, and in the future development, it was impossible for the Father-God Church to be separated from the secular regime, and even the first church on the earth, Catholicism, was also strengthened in cooperation with the political institutions of various countries, and a religion that was separated from the secular was no longer a religion, after all, as a religion, it was impossible to manage and lead the people like the official, and all that religion needed was faith and believers, and that it was a matter of the state to rule.

As the scourge of the rift continues, the major religions will inevitably rise up, but they will certainly not be rulers, and at most they will only raise some puppets to help them. It's more about cooperating with some ambitious and powerful people, and that's the rules of the game in the religious world.

In this case, it is naturally impossible for the Father God Sect to be beyond the rules of the game, originally Link was ready to take Count Lothar as a partner, and Count Lothar must know this, everyone knows this, who knows that Count Lothar will send such a letter to Link here. He certainly didn't have any ill thoughts towards Link, so there was only one possibility—Count Lothar wanted to tell him that it was better to work with Sylvanas than with him, the lord of the side!

If Sylvanas's talent and wisdom were as rumored, she would not have failed to see that religious unrest was the norm, and that it would be necessary to nurture a religion for her own use or to cooperate with a religion that would not threaten her rule.

The above is Link's conjecture, and it is also the conjecture of the intelligent people in the church. So he finally decided to go to the royal capital Xingyao City.

Now that the decision has been made, Link no longer hesitates, and immediately orders his men to prepare for the trip, intending to leave tomorrow morning.

This time the trip was unpredictable. Link thought about it for a moment. When he returned to his room, he took out the Lady Luck Roulette wheel he got last time, ready to try to see if this high-end item could surprise him on this trip.

The Lady Luck wheel says it's a roulette wheel, but in fact it doesn't show anyone's name on it, and there are no pointers, follow the instructions. It seems that the name of the woman next to the user will be displayed after the turn, and the luck value will be temporarily increased.

After being infused with holy power. The Lady Luck wheel began to spin, and when it stopped, two names appeared on it, and they surprised him.

Reimu and Lin Xi!

"It's actually the two of them, can it really bring me good luck?" Link couldn't help but be suspicious, Lin Xi said that although Reimeng's strength was not weak. But the character is hard, and it is okay to stay at home as a mascot to regulate your mood. When you take it out, it tastes like the light is dying.

However, since the Lady Luck Roulette has taken effect, Link doesn't want to waste it, so he immediately found Lin Xi and Reimeng, and asked the two girls to go to the royal capital with him. In the end, of course, she agreed to the request for a trip, on the condition that she would be given a thousand solas afterwards.

By the way, Reimu seems to have more than two thousand solas in her deposit, one step closer to her goal of one hundred thousand solas - she herself said.

Link doesn't plan to take a lot of people with him on this trip, just travel lightly, except for him, Reimeng and Lin Xi, only Altaïr will go with him, and the spirit pet will bring Bai Ling and the Phantom with him, and once they encounter danger, they will directly let Bai Ling retreat with them, while Altaïr and the Phantom can investigate the situation for him.

Although there are fewer people, the overall combat effectiveness is not weak at all, even if they encounter the Bombardment Dragon again, they can easily escape, and even kill the Bombardment Dragon, and even if they encounter a seventh-order strong enemy, they can retreat with their whole body - I heard that Lin Xi still has the Heavenly Spirit Sect's heirloom holy relics on his body, although he doesn't know what it is, but listening to the three cardinals, once the effect of that thing looks good, Lin Xi's strength can be multiplied, and even if he encounters a seventh-order powerhouse, he can still have the strength to fight.

Early the next morning, the group of four took Bai Ling to Bath City, where they got the token that the Earl of Lothar had prepared, and boarded a ship in the port of Bath City and headed for the royal capital.

Bath City is built next to the Xingchen River, the largest Grand Canal in the Kingdom of Stars, which runs through the entire Kingdom of Stars, and is one of the most important transportation arteries of the Kingdom of Stars.

Originally, Link and they could go directly to the royal capital by Bai Ling, but the Earl of Lothar said in his letter that the royal capital was so masterful that it was best for them to go in a low-key manner, and he had already arranged for people to meet them at the port of disembarkation, and when the time came, they could meet those people and go directly to the palace.

Link doesn't want to be too ostentatious, the current Bai Ling is different from the past, although it has become more powerful, but the huge size and conspicuous appearance also make it easy to expose in the daytime, flying low will inevitably be noticed by the masters along the way, flying high and they can't stand it, the high-altitude effect is not something you can stand if you are strong, at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters, the thin oxygen and the rapid flight of the air flow are enough to stun them, when they ride the Bai Ling on weekdays, their flight altitude is generally not more than five thousand meters.

Therefore, when Link and the others took a boat, Bai Ling flew directly at an altitude of 10,000 meters, but could quietly enter the royal capital without others noticing, and in the case of a complete lack of understanding of the situation in the royal capital, it would be better for them in the past.

The ships used in the Kingdom of Stars are all quite old wooden boats, which are only suitable for driving on rivers, and entering the sea is the rhythm of being sunk to the bottom, however, there is no sea in the Kingdom of Stars, so this kind of ship is enough, and there is no need to force it in terms of speed, in the eyes of Link and others, the speed is the same as that of a turtle climbing, but it is already among the best in transportation.

The ship that the Earl of Lothar arranged for Link and them was called the Star Spirit, which was one of the most luxurious ships in all the passenger ships of the Star Kingdom, one of the few 'automated' ships that used magic stones as the power source, in addition to wood, but also added a small amount of metal and stone, which could carry more than 800 people at the same time, with a total length of more than 50 meters, a width of 15 meters, a total of four layers, and a considerable carrying capacity, known as the giant on the long river of stars.

Under the arrangement of the Count of Lothar, they were on board with other guests, there were more than thirty sailors and crew members on board, and there were more than three hundred passengers, although they could carry more than eight hundred people at most, but that was a last resort, most of the time, they would only carry about three hundred people.

Such a ship naturally cannot only have rooms for everyone to be crowded together, and there will be no shortage of luxury boxes, the price is quite considerable, and money may not be able to buy them, but under the arrangement of the Count of Lothar, they can easily get two top-class boxes, just enough for the four of them, one for two men and two women.

After putting the luggage away, the four of them stayed in the room and started to stay, it didn't look like a person who traveled far away at all, no way, Altaïr as a top assassin, he had never encountered any situation, something like this kind of boat travel had already been tried, and Link lived in a coastal city before crossing, and there were many opportunities to take a boat, Lin Xi was a perennial traveler, as for Reimu, it was simpler, she was too lazy to move, and staying in the room in a daze was more fun than going out to enjoy the scenery.

In this case, the four of them simply stayed in the room and chatted, but the problem was that Altaïr was a muffled gourd, and he was different from Link, while Reimu was cold by nature, and both of them belonged to the type who couldn't hold back a word for a long time, and in the end, it became Link and Lin Xi chatting there, and the other two became spectators and light bulbs.

At the end of the chat, Link and Lin Xi were also affected by the two, and they lost the interest in chatting, which made everyone fall into silence.

Faced with this situation, Link felt the need to get some simple entertainment equipment, and he didn't feel that he was busy every day, and it was strange that he didn't find something to pass the time when he was bored. However, now that he was out of town and didn't have the tools to make it, he couldn't use it even if Link had countless ideas, so after thinking about it for a while, he simply ran outside and walked around.

Originally, Lin Xi and the others wanted to go together, but Link refused, he just wanted to go for a walk because he was bored, and then let this group of people go together, and it would be boring, especially Altaïr, which could be used as a refrigerator.

So, in the end, Link appeared on the deck alone, and at this time there were many tourists hanging on the deck, Link looked at it, except for the crew, the others were tourists, and the huge deck was enough for dozens of people to stand on it without feeling crowded.

Link was wearing an ordinary cloth coat at this time, and he looked not much different from ordinary people, so he naturally did not attract the attention of others, and he walked lightly, and soon came to the bow of the boat, but when he reached the bow of the boat, he found a strange scene.
