A Million Possible

Chapter 683 Castle Dinner

Newton…

Hearing this name, Cheng Lin noticed that the noble prince named Nolan in front of him just repeated it in a low voice, without a special reaction. The people around him also looked the same. Relatively “uncommon”.

Hmm… It seems that history has indeed been completely broken… Cheng Lin muttered silently in his heart.

The reason for choosing the pseudonym is mainly because of habit, just like calling himself the explorer “Izeril” in the dragon civilization deduction. As for why he chose Newton, it is a joke on a whim and a test of their reaction.

Now it seems that after thousands of years of turbulence, everything that has passed has become completely unrecognizable.

With a light sigh in his heart, Cheng Lin heard Prince Nolan in front of him invite with an impeccable smile:

“You are a guest from afar, if you don’t dislike the barren territory, please come with me. I have prepared a banquet in the castle to catch the wind and dust for you.”

In the last sentence, he turned to Shirley and the others.

The members of the exploration team bowed their heads and saluted again.

Cheng Lin nodded slightly. Seeing that the other party didn’t mention the “remains” and own identity here, he didn’t take the initiative to say anything.

Well, it’s not appropriate to use “city” to describe it. When Cheng Lin walked through the city wall and witnessed the buildings behind, he realized that Prince Nolan’s phrase “the territory is barren” was not a modest word. It was indeed barren here. It’s a city rather than a town.

With the help of the sunset, the buildings of the entire town are unobstructed. Aside from the soldiers’ barracks next to the city wall, there is a straight road paved with sand and a small amount of gravel. This is probably the only one in the town. The decent “road”, the rest are dirt roads.

Most of the houses are also made of wood. The building standards are almost made of a mold. They are all one-story. The only advantage is that they are brand new.

Yes, the rough fractures of the wood on the surface of the houses can tell when they were built. At this moment, probably because the horn of martial law was blown before, there are almost no pedestrians on the road.

However, through keen perception, Cheng Lin could see the curious eyes cast from those low houses.

At the end of the road is the only high-rise building in the town. It is a small stone castle. The whole is gray and black, and the color is similar to that of the city wall. Besides, there is another strangely shaped spire not far away. , The purpose is unknown.

“Please.”

Along the way, everyone did not talk deeply. Cheng Lin has been led into the castle. Then, Nolan summoned a servant like a butler and asked him to lead Cheng Lin into the second-floor reception room to rest. Find an excuse to take Shirley and others to leave.

Obviously, I was asking about the situation. After all, the previous “letter” didn’t quite understand it. Cheng Lin naturally didn’t care about it. He didn’t even use his perception ability to spy on it. He just followed the housekeeper and servant into a reception room.

“Please take a rest, just call the maid at the door if you have any instructions.” The housekeeper said, after getting Cheng Lin’s nod, he slowly stepped back.

When the room calmed down, Cheng Lin began to look at the layout of the place.

It’s darker overall, but it looks cool in midsummer. There is a huge animal skin carpet on the floor. The hair is clean, there is a fireplace, which is not lit, and the head is inlaid with gorgeous chandelier, but the burning is not wax oil. , But a kind of luminous mineral, and on the wall are a series of realistic works with peculiar painting styles.

Cheng Lin sat down, drank tea leisurely, and ate some unknown local specialty fruits. After a while, the door was pushed open, and Prince Nolan came over with a smile: “Sorry, I kept you waiting.”

“His Royal Highness is polite.” Cheng Lin smiled.

“The dinner is ready, please come with me.” At Nolan’s invitation, Cheng Lin got up and went to another room with a similar style, except that there was a long table with candlesticks on it, and the lights flickered. At both ends of the long table are well-placed dinner plates, and a servant and maid are waiting on the side.

Waiting for Cheng Lin to sit down, Nolan waved his hand to hold back all the servants, and then said:

“The Far South Territory is remote, far less prosperous than the royal capital. Fortunately, it also has some characteristics. Don’t be surprised by Mr. Newton.”

Cheng Lin automatically skipped Nolan’s name to himself, glanced vaguely at the gray-robed middle-aged man hiding in the dark, and then looked at the knife and fork and a pair of silver chopsticks in front of him, thinking that it was a combination of Chinese and Western…

“His Royal Highness has bothered.”

Cheng Lin said a few polite words, and then the two of them separated the long table and drank the “Dipspo” red wine. Nolan solemnly said, “Originally, this was just a normal exploration. I didn’t expect it to have Such an amazing discovery.”

This is finally the topic…

Cheng Lin asked immediately: “I was also surprised.”

He returned on the way and learned some information appropriately, knowing that the prince in front of him had accidentally got news about the “remains”, and then he sent them out to explore. By the way, he also mapped the forests in the south of the territory. Fucked myself.

“I heard Shirley say that you claim that Life is in the cataclysm era and awakened in the ruins…” Until then, Nolan finally could no longer conceal the doubts in his heart.

Cheng Lin nodded brazenly: “Indeed.”

“This is incredible…” Nolan said, and immediately added, “After all, in the historical records of the three kingdoms, the cataclysmic era has been a thousand years old. Even if it is the most powerful known, it has a long life. Transcendents who are characteristic of this will definitely not survive for so long, and… their appearance is the same as before.”

Nolan’s voice made no secret of own confusion. Before Cheng Lin could answer, he said:

“I think this is not something that needs to be concealed. At first, after I received the news, I was very surprised, instinctively unbelieving, and once doubted your identity, but… when I talked with Shirley and the others, I was a little bit surprised. I’m not sure.”

At this moment, the night has already filled the entire southern collar. In the castle hall, the overhead chandelier was not turned on, only the long table covered with intricate patterns was flickering.

Cheng Lin sat in a chair leisurely and relaxedly, and when he heard that he folded his hands, smiled, and stared at the prince with unfathomable eyes: “Oh?”

Nolan’s tone was slightly quicker:

“When I was on the city wall, I saw your…car? Well, it doesn’t need to be driven by horses. It can be driven by the nature of the mountains and the wild. In the known history, I know that in ancient times, there is indeed A kind of peculiar power-driven steel vehicle, um, that word… is called… car? Even in some museums in the capital, there are cars unearthed from the ruins, but… they are all without exception. It has been unable to start, and…is not the same as the one you are driving…”
