Chapter 196 The Strange Royal City

Sitting on the moving carriage, Su Ge looked through the window at the street scene along the way, feeling like he had experienced three worlds.

Guiying City has a large area and is divided into outer city, middle ring and inner area.

The outer city is a civilian area close to the city wall. The entire part can be said to be riddled with holes. There are traces of war everywhere. The air is filled with smoke. Bullet holes and bullet marks can be seen everywhere on the walls and on the ground.

This scene reminded Su Ge of the scenes in the Middle East he saw on TV during the Earth Period.

There were heavily armed personnel everywhere, people looked nervous, and children used bullet casings and bomb fragments as toys to shuttle through the ruins...

Walking along the main road, walking across a twenty-meter-long stone arch bridge, and crossing the city-ring river, Su Ge felt like he had entered a whole new world.

This area is relatively calm, with neat red brick buildings on both sides. The streets are clean and there are many pedestrians coming and going. They are neatly dressed, including workers in gray overalls, businessmen in black suits, and vendors selling newspapers.

The feeling here is completely different from just now.

If it was a war-torn area in the Middle East just now, then this place has become a prosperous second-tier city similar to Bain City.

Compared to the chaos outside, there is much order here.

But one thing that surprised Su Ge was that there was only a river across the river, but no refugees could be seen escaping in.

Elena on the side explained: "There are centralized refugee camps in the outer city. They are directly under the jurisdiction of the Queen and protected by the army. The living conditions there are much better than here. After entering, you will not only suffer the eyes and disgust, but also the pressure It is also very large. After all, the consumption level is different outside. According to the Queen's new policy, those people can become temporary militiamen and enjoy the treatment of soldiers while protecting their families. Although the salary is not high, it can ensure that the family has enough food and clothing. warm."

After hearing this, Su Ge suddenly had a deeper understanding of Vanas's ruling skills.

The entire Guiying City is distributed in a ring shape, which looks very neat from the map.

The two main roads divide the city into four equal areas in a cross shape. Residential buildings, shopping malls and other buildings are distributed in an equilateral triangle shape, which looks very comfortable.

Su Ge put down the map and said: "The person who designed this capital must be an obsessive-compulsive disorder patient."

Elena grabbed the map and hummed: "The person who originally designed this capital was a master architect. Rumor has it that he was also a powerful mystic. He used a special mysterious method to build it. The layout of the city like this is said to ensure the luck of the royal family and keep the Kingdom of Guinness going. "

"Kingdom has no eternity, my child." Upon hearing this, Su Ge instinctively said this classic line.

"Who is your child!" Elena's eyes widened, like a ferocious little tiger.

Ahem!

Su Ge coughed, turned to look at the street, and found that the scene around him had changed again.

At this moment, they passed a relatively low city wall and came to the inner area.

The scenery inside is completely different from that outside.

The roads here are neat and wide, and the street lights are neat.

There are no houses on both sides of the road, but tall courtyard walls of different shapes.

Beyond the courtyard wall, you can barely see the towering spiers of the houses behind.

At this moment, he passed by a steel gate that looked at least ten meters wide. Looking through the gap, Su Ge saw the neat courtyard at the back, the staggered stone paths, green plants, squares and fountains, and finally the building made of A tall castle composed of dark red, gray blue and white.

At the gate, four fully armed soldiers could be seen. Judging from the silver-gray armor and the gear firearms they held, these guards were much better armed than the regular troops outside.

"These nobles seem to be much better armed than your army." Su Ge turned around and asked.

Elena nodded generously and said: "That's for sure. The nobles are all very rich. There is no problem in supporting a small elite army."

At this time, Su Ge heard a burst of melodious music and faint talking.

Turning to look towards the north side of the road, I happened to see a large number of luxurious carriages parked on the roadside, and many beautiful young women in glamorous dresses walked into the door under the guidance of attendants.

"This is Marquis Raul's house. Today is the birthday party of the old Marquis' son." Elena said casually.

Su Ge looked at the door and happened to see a petite beautiful woman wearing a white dress, gauze hat, and black lace gloves walking into the door with the help of an entourage.

As soon as this woman came down, she immediately became the focus of everyone. The eyes of all the men present were attracted to her, with deep admiration and hidden longing.

"She is the only daughter of the Duke of the Mountains. Her name is Selsi. She has been a famous socialite in the capital in recent years. It is said that countless men are attracted by her." Although Elena's face was full of disdain, her eyes and tone revealed that A feeling of envy and sourness.

After all, all women love beauty and desire to be the focus and admiration of all men at the ball.

Su Ge turned to look at her and said with a smile: "If you dress up a little, you will be many times more beautiful than her."

After hearing this, Elena lowered her head in embarrassment, fiddled with the corner of her leather armor and said, "You don't have to flatter me. I'm aware of this."

Su Ge shook his head and said seriously: "This is not flattery, it's the truth. You see, she is only a little better looking than you after putting on makeup. When you take off your leather armor, put on light makeup, wear high heels and evening gowns, you will definitely beat her by several streets, believe me!"

Seeing Su Ge so formal, Elena was immediately happy and hummed: "I will try it when I have a chance in the future. If you make me embarrassed, I will see how I beat you!"

The closer you get to the center, the more carriages there are on the street.

Compared with those luxurious carriages, this military carriage full of bullet holes is like a pheasant among a group of swans.

However, the soldiers driving the carriage seemed to have gotten used to it long ago, completely ignoring the grooms, the rolling eyes and the low sneers on both sides, and arrived at the palace of the kingdom ten minutes later.

The area of ​​the palace is very large. It is a typical castle of the Western Kingdom in the Middle Ages. You can see the castle spires, watchtowers, bell towers, etc.

Under the tall walls all around is a ten-meter-wide moat, which looks like a huge castle built on an island in the middle of the lake.

The carriage stopped by the river, and two people carried Tess out of the car.

In front of them was a drawbridge, which was half-suspended at this time and heavily guarded.

After Elena walked down, she took out a token of her own. When the guard saw it, he said happily: "You are finally back, Chief of Staff!"

"Chief of Staff!?" Su Ge was a little surprised. This is not a small official position.

Elena gestured to lower the drawbridge and asked: "How is the queen recently?"

"Very good. Since about six days ago, the queen's mood and spirit have become very good. She no longer stays in the palace all the time. She often walks out and exudes a reassuring glow," the young soldier said happily.

Hearing this, Elena looked a little strange: "What's going on?"

"Maybe you found a helper!" Su Ge walked over and said casually.

Elena didn't say anything. After the suspension bridge was lowered, she took Su Ge and quickly walked into the royal city.
