Chapter 250: Prologue: Khaki Chapter (2)
It's dawn.
Early in the morning, I sat in the window of the car and enjoyed the scenery outside.
The train entered a cave tunnel, and it was about five minutes dark outside before the light came back to light.
Outside the train tracks are majestic mountains, surrounded by green mountains and green waters, lush greenery.
The mist drifting in the water is undulating.
I was touched by this natural beauty.
I used to fly in the sky with long staff and flying carpets, and occasionally I saw something like this.
But only the splendid mountains and rivers here are so special and vivid.
It is rumored that due to the development of industry in Delmar North Asia, the environment has become a miasma, and the smog can cover the sky.
It seems that these are just false rumors.
"Good morning, senior!"
Andili walked out of the room, rubbing her eyes, it looked like she hadn't rested well last night.
"Uh-huh, good morning, Andyrie." I responded.
She sat down next to me, her loose magician's robes making her look a little skinny, her legs shaking.
She complained, "It was so noisy last night, and I don't know who was yelling and screaming!"
I smiled and comforted, "Maybe someone else is doing something big, so it would be nice to wear earplugs like I did."
Andili pursed her lips and yawned, "Our orc hearing is generally better than that of the Asians, and it is useless to wear earplugs."
At this moment, I noticed that Joseph came out of the room, with dark circles under his eyes and yawning, followed by Satya, whose face was full of red light.
Looks like he was busy last night, and his eyes were swollen like that.
On the other hand, Shatya looks full of energy.
"Good morning!" Joseph said hello and made coffee at the counter next to him.
Andili wondered, "Hey, Sister Satya, did you stay with Joseph last night?"
Shatya played with the two purple ponytails on her shoulders and said coquettishly, "Of course, we had a good chat last night, full of energy."
Andili tilted her head, puzzled.
I coughed and said, "My younger sister is still young, so it's better not to discuss this topic."
I looked at Joseph and asked, "How long is it until we reach our destination?"
Joseph replied, "The next stop is the final stop, and there are about 20 minutes to go, and after getting off the train, we have to take the cable car to Mount Aikun."
"Cable car?" I wondered, "What is that, is that a train of this shape?"
Joseph shook his head.
"It's a piece of equipment that transports people or goods on a wire rope, and the slope of the track is generally between 15° and 20°," he said.
I didn't seem to understand, and I looked at Andili and saw that she was also confused.
Shatya said, "So, it's something that hangs on a rope?"
Joseph nodded, "Yes, and it's much smaller than a train, and the light cable car can carry up to six people, and you'll know then."
When I got off the train, I breathed in the fresh air outside and felt much more relaxed.
Andili followed me closely, looking more afraid of life and very repulsive to the unfamiliar environment of the station.
I turned my head to look at Joseph, "What about the others?"
Joseph glanced at the mechanical watch on his wrist, "Hurry, wait!"
"Dudu...... Toot!"
In the distance, the sound of a train's horn could be heard at the entrance of the station.
"Another steaming serpent!" Andili's surprised voice behind him.
I saw a black steam train stop in the side direction.
Steam bubbled from under the door, which slowly opened with the push of the wheel.
A familiar figure caught my attention.
"Your Highness Merlot!" Andili and I were on the same page.
I ran over with her, and saw the beautiful woman with short light blue hair in front of me, kneeling down on one knee and saying, "See Her Royal Highness!"
Andili's voice is quieter.
I noticed the nervousness on her face in the face of the eldest princess of the empire.
The empire has three princesses, three princes.
The eldest prince is generally called the Great Prince.
followed by the second prince and the third prince.
The princess is called the eldest princess, followed by the second princess and the third princess.
I used to wonder which of them was the oldest.
For example, the eldest princess is older than the eldest prince, shouldn't the prince be at the back of the line, called the second prince?
This question has been bothering me for a long time, and I have only recently figured it out.
It turns out that both men and women have specific titles, and the eldest princess is not the eldest prince, nor the second prince, but the second princess. qδ
Similarly, the second princess is not lined up behind the eldest prince, but the second prince.
I'm curious, why did the eldest princess Merlot come here?
Behind her stood two knights, one with a shocking scar on his face, and the other a one-eyed.
I could feel the horror of their fighting.
"It's Khaki, and Andili, get up."
"Your Royal Highness Princess Xie!" My voice with Andyrie.
At this time, I found that in the carriage at the back of the train, a petite girl with a suitcase and a heavy bag came out.
"Hurry up, Shermi, Her Royal Highness is waiting for you!"
The one-eyed knight yelled at the girl.
I think that girl should be the maid of His Royal Highness Merlot, obviously there are two big men here, and he actually let a girl carry such a heavy thing.
So, I walked over to help and took the suitcase from Charmie's hand.
As soon as I took it...... Good guys, really ...... It's so heavy.
How did this petite girl Sharmi do it?
"Senior, I'll come!"
Andili came over to help me.
She is an orc, don't look at the body is a little thin, but her strength is amazing, and smashing a rock with one punch is just a small meaning.
I didn't have anything to hold on my hand, so I was a little embarrassed.
Char Mi thanked Andili and me in sign language.
It turns out that she is mute, but it's a pity that she looks so beautiful.
With shoulder-length black hair, clear phoenix eyes, delicate facial features, and fair skin, it is exactly the same as my fiancée's salad.
There were a few more people in the back carriage of the train, they were dressed in magician's robes, and there was no doubt that they were alchemists from other countries.
Andili and I are not in the ranks of His Highness Merlot.
Why?
Because I'm only a student at Sturm University of Magic and Wizardry, I'm far from qualified to enter the battle for royal power.
Since a few years ago, these princes and princesses have begun to gather their own forces.
Some are passive, championed by others.
Because the struggle for power in the aristocracy is almost always like this, some officials who want to gain benefits will choose an heir with royal blood to serve and assist the other party to ascend to the throne.
So with royal blood, there are naturally a lot of people around you who give you advice.
I heard that these six heirs have been fighting openly and secretly for several years, and they look peaceful on the surface, but in fact they are eager to tear each other apart.
Since ancient times, the royal family has been the most ruthless, nothing more than this.
