Chapter 777: The Pearl of the North

It was said that it was twenty minutes away, but in fact, as the officer said, after going over a small hill, he saw the sea.

The waves rolling on the blue sea, the low-flying seagulls passing over the sea, and the unique smell give the illusion that even the hot sun is cooling.

"Oooh oh. ”

Lucia leaned against the edge of the window, and with her hand on her chin, she let out a voice of little energy, and the difference between her and her previous expectation was so great that Lamech, who was also attracted by the sea, couldn't help but look at her again.

"What's the matter? Don't you look forward to the sea with such a powerless voice?"

Lucia, who was asked this, looked up and greeted Lamech with a look of "You really don't understand anything."

"The so-called expectation is the most precious thing when you can't get it, and it's worth it when you get it...... It doesn't matter how it feels. ”

- What do you say about the owe of flat, you kid. Although it feels reasonable, Lamech will never admit it. Isn't it good to be positive and optimistic, and why is Lucia always so good at spoiling the atmosphere?

Ignoring Lamech, whose face was changing from face to place, Lucia continued to look at the sea. In her memory, she has knowledge about the sea, but most of it is about things like "swimsuits" and "summer work", and it has little to do with the sea itself.

As for seeing the sea and feeling small, it was even more impossible for Lucia, and the only thing she thought about this huge pond was that it was "it seems to be big" and "it seems to be salty".

Without a swimsuit, I don't feel moved, which is why Lucia's enthusiasm cooled when she saw the sea.

In the group of young girls who also saw the sea for the first time, Hekat and Lulu were not interested in these things, and the only one who showed innocence was the little sister Victoria, who had just joined the young girls group recently. This novel and spectacular spectacle is always appealing to children, even the shy Victoria.

Victoria swayed her calves and couldn't sit still, but she didn't say anything after seeing that Lucia was not very interested, since Lucia didn't like it, then no matter how much she liked it, she would still follow Lucia's pretend not to like it, because for her, Lucia still liked the most.

Victoria tried to suppress the excitement in her heart, but it was too difficult for a child of this age to hide her emotions, and her eyes would still drift out of the window from time to time, and the look of anticipation was too obvious.

Not to mention Lamech, even Lucia noticed Victoria's strangeness.

"What's the matter, do you want to go to the beach?"

Victoria was startled, shyly twisted and subconsciously nodded, and quickly shook her head after suddenly reacting.

It was so endearing that Lamech smiled intoxicatingly.

Without waiting for Lucia to answer, the officer who had spoken to her before leaned over again.

"It's okay for the young ladies to go to the beach to play, but not here. ”

With that, the officer raised his hand and pointed to the sea in the distance.

"It's not so much that it can't be done. ”

According to the officer, although the sea can be seen from here, in fact there is a cliff at some distance from the sea, which is not high, but it is not a suitable area for play.

"If you want to have fun, let's wait until we get to our destination, although the north side of the city is a cliff, but if you go south, there is a very large sandy beach, which is very beautiful, and it is said that it has developed a large tourism industry. ”

"Tourism ....... ”

For this word, which is rare in the world but sparse on earth, Lamech is the most surprised, should it be said that it is worthy of a trading city, as long as it is related to commerce, it has an extraordinary sense of smell.

Even Lucia was stunned by the officer's words, and then let out the same emotion as Lamech.

"It's a trading city, it's so stylish. ”

Although the adjectives are a little weird.

Neruda, known as the Pearl of the North, is a city built on a hill that stands abruptly by the sea, because it is surrounded by cliffs to the north and beaches to the south, so the overall structure of the city is more three-dimensional, like a carved tower. (I really can't imagine it, just refer to Minas Tirith in the Lord of the Rings)

The seaside half of the city is dominated by various ports, and with the exception of the top-of-the-line administrative agencies, one-third of the city is occupied by a large market, which is much smaller than the area used for living.

Near the beach to the south, there is also a complex of newly built buildings that have been built in response to the development of tourism, from inns, pubs, food stalls to souvenir shops.

Unlike all the cities Lucia has been in before, the atmosphere of life in this city is much weaker, and it is more like a festival, with a smile on everyone's face, and you can feel the unusual enthusiasm just by walking in it.

Because they had known about the summit for a long time, the people of Neruda had long been surprised by these carriages, which they knew at a glance that there were big men sitting in it, and politely gave way to the road.

Walking along the main road, there is a ramp that spirals up gradually, the ramp is wide and clean, and on both sides are erected unique ethnic houses, mainly white stone, similar to the Etruscan architectural style of circular dome buildings, in addition to the unique architecture that incorporates many foreign building techniques and styles.

Distinct cultures and aesthetics are perfectly softened together, and this is the trading city of Neruda.

If you look at the city from the perspective of culture and art, you can understand why it is called the Pearl of the North.

"It's a beautiful city. ”

Although he knew that this was not in his style, Lamech still let out such a feeling.

Lucia nodded, agreeing with Lamech.

"It's like Minas Tirith crushed down. ”

The atmosphere was ruined in an instant.

“...... Just a little bit would be fine, I really hope you can be edified by the artistic atmosphere of this city. ”

It's not that Lucia doesn't have to use an exclamation tone when she doesn't say a word, but at least it would be nice not to ruin the atmosphere so much.

At the highest point of the city, there is a leveled high platform, which is called a high platform, but in terms of size, it may be better to call it a high ground, because it is the size of a small palace.

There were already people waiting there in front of the palace, and after a casual glance, Lamech withdrew his gaze. Lucia herself is here for a vacation, and other troubles, including negotiations and exchanges, will be left to Prince Fat Pig.
