In addition, a large area is farmland.
"Although the British government has vigorously encouraged British farmers, it not only exempted agricultural taxes, but even issued agricultural subsidies. Although food production has doubled since 1900, the population has also doubled. Generally speaking, the UK still faces severe food shortages. Therefore, the UK has always had to rely on the undersea tunnel with France to import a large amount of European materials to ensure the basic needs of the people.”
Furutegawa opened the car window, put one hand on the steering wheel, leaned the other hand on the car window, and supported his chin with the back of his hand.
He doesn't have the habit of smoking, and he prefers the feeling of the wind hitting his face from the car window when driving at high speed.
"However, the guys in the House of Lords and the House of Commons are fighting over it even when it's so obvious. What a fool."
"Is it the topic of whether Britain has fully joined Europe?"
"That's right, we've been arguing since the 80s until now."
The relationship between the UK and Europe has always been complicated.
As Guategawa said before, the land area that can be cultivated in the UK is actually not much, even if it is developed as much as it is now, it is not enough.
So historically, Britain has been trying to own Europe, or French territories.
The Hundred Years' War between Britain and France is the best example.
"On the one hand, it is believed that the UK should further integrate into Europe, so that more supplies can be obtained from Europe, and it will be cheaper for the common people to buy food. On the other hand, the UK should be separated from the influence of Europe, so as to ensure the independence and sovereignty of the country... . . but really, what’s left in the UK right now besides sterling?”
Although these are things that the royal faction has to worry about, as a trainee member of the knight faction, Haruto Furudegawa will inevitably be concerned about these things.
"Which side do you support, Furutegawa?"
Hearing Furutegawa's complaint, Kamijou asked curiously.
"Me? I hope the price of vegetables can be cheaper." Furutegawa smiled: "After all, I am a capable person, and the world of capable people is no longer torn apart because of the Administration. I naturally hope that Europe will be the same... ...Of course, I also know. The politics of the real world and the power struggle in the world of ability users are not in the same system."
"As you said, it is enough for Her Majesty the Queen and the Prime Minister to worry about such matters. Members of the Knight Faction, it is enough to protect this country and maintain the balance of the country."
Kamijou held up his portable camera and saw the cows licking their nostrils with their tongues leisurely on the field ridge by the roadside, so he hurriedly lifted it up and took a picture.
"Hey, the material collected this time can be used in the plot of the next novel."
"Fiction? Oh, it's JOJO, or SAO!"
"SAO, the next volume is the world of fairies. I plan to write a story about Avalon and the sword of contract victory."
To put it bluntly, it is the story of the ALO part, Kamijou who is a copy master.
How can you forget to collect folk songs when you come to the UK?
"Oh! I'm so excited for you to say that! To be honest, I named my sword 'Caliburn (Sword in the Stone)'"
Furutokawa Haruto did have such a sword, a weapon summoned from an unknown space after transformation.
"Isn't that the sword in the stone! And isn't the name of your sword 'Wizard Sword and Spear'?"
"Just changed the name!"
Under the influence of Walter, Furutegawa also read Kamijou's book, and it was out of control after reading it.
Especially JOJO, he likes the chivalry of Big Joe very much.Of course, SAO also likes it very much, especially the two-sword style in it. If he didn't only have one sword, he would also like to try Starburst Airflow Slash.
"So, what are you going to write in your new book? Could it be the story of King Arthur!"
"It's not King Arthur. The new stage is a traditional MMORPG, which borrows part of Norse mythology and King Arthur's legend. As for the content, don't worry, I will finish it before high school starts."
Pushing the non-existent glasses on his face with his finger, Mr. Kamijou's 'Guataro Typewriter' mode is about to start.
"You will be the first reader when the time comes."
"Master Guataro's manuscript! Looking forward to it!"
Furutegawa stepped on the accelerator, and the speed of the car increased.
An old castle on the side of the road flashed past the car window, and Kamijou raised his camera and snapped the picture.
--------
Passing Wincanton, Furutegawa turned the car from the A303 onto the A371 motorway and continued heading northwest.
Soon came Glastonbury.
They set off at nine o'clock in the morning and traveled for a total of four hours. It is now one thirty in the afternoon.
The time was just right, Kamijou and Furutegawa parked their car in a parking lot and decided to find a place to eat.
Glastonbury is a quiet town.
Although it is inextricably linked to the legend of King Arthur, Kamijou feels more like his hometown in the countryside.
Although the styles are different, the ancient streets built from the 4th century to the 18th century are still in use, and the old wall bricks and floors are covered with wet moss.
But low and ordinary, sparsely populated, young people are rarely seen.
All gave Kamijou an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
Well, quiet and peaceful.
The parliamentary bill, the cruelty of the world of ability users, everything seems to be far away from here.
"It's so quiet here!"
Kamijou took a deep breath, feeling as if he could smell the moist Atlantic sea breeze.There is a slightly salty freshness in the air.
"Although this town is famous for the tomb of King Arthur, it actually has only more than 8000 residents. And the aging population is relatively serious. Most of the young people have gone to work and go to school in big cities farther away."
Furutegawa looked around.
After two years of absence, there seem to be fewer young people here.
Some sigh, but do not know what to sigh.
I had no choice but to shake my head helplessly.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the most famous local restaurant 'Excalibur' to eat."
"Broken steel sword? This is King Arthur!"
"It's just a name. In fact, the dishes prepared are just ordinary British dishes. However, the boss is also one of us. The most important thing is that with the status of a capable person, we can get a little discount."
Furutegawa looked up at the roadside sign.
"Go, this way."
Chapter 13. The Stronghold of the British Branch: Camelot
Furutokawa Haruto is right, the so-called travel is to go from the place where you are bored to the place where others are bored.
Although there are the earliest monastery sites in Britain, as well as the tomb of King Arthur.
But the locals have long been accustomed to it.
The grassland where King Arthur's tomb is located has become an open space for ordinary people to play.On the Avalon Highlands, there are even free-range sheep.
Maybe, when the locals here see outsiders taking pictures together on the grass, they will think in their hearts, "There is a bumpkin who has never seen the world, taking pictures on my grass." Something like that.
However, it is still time to shoot.
Such an ancient British building full of original flavor, I don’t know when I will have a chance next time.
Although you can find materials online, the ones you take are much worse than your own.
Excalibur
Black lettering is inlaid on the white storefront.
After Kamijou took a photo of the storefront, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Furutegawa patted Kamijou.
"What are you laughing at, is this store name interesting?"
"No, just remembered something."
Kamijou shook his head and walked into the restaurant first.
The interior of the store is simple, with no frills.Signature dishes and store introductions hang on the walls.Seems to welcome guests here or something.
Perhaps it was already past lunch time, and there were not many customers in the store.
The boss is a middle-aged man wearing glasses.
Standing in front of the counter, he looked up calmly.
Then, he seemed to have spotted Furutegawa's figure, and his eyes lit up slightly.
He came out from behind the counter and came to Furutegawa with a slightly excited tone.
"When did you come back? I..."
Furutegawa waved his hand, "I've only been back recently, mainly to accompany the guests." He said and looked sideways at Kamijou.
"Who is this......"
The boss looked at Kamijou's face, hesitated for a moment, and then flashed a large piece of information in his mind.
Kamijou Touma's name, title, and achievements all came to mind.
"...So it's Furutegawa's friend, come on, come upstairs! I have an exclusive seat here!"
"Thank you very much."
Kamijou nodded.
The first floor is an ordinary restaurant, and the second floor seems to be the owner's private residence.
As soon as he went up the stairs, Kamijou keenly felt the invisible magic wave sweeping over his body.
His subconscious muscles tensed.
Furutegawa sensed Kamijou's strangeness, turned around and said to him.
"Don't worry, this is just an identity monitoring technique, similar to Academy City's face recognition."
Kamijou nodded, although it has long been heard that Britain basically uses magic and rarely uses technological products.But I didn't expect that the equipment used in such a small shop was also a spiritual outfit.
On the second floor, the store manager closed the door and walked to an open door and closed the door.
He turned the coat hook on the door and opened it again.
The environment inside is no longer the previous bedroom, but another scene.
"Please come in."
The store manager raised his hand to let Kamijou and Furutegawa go in first, then he turned around and closed the door again.
"Oh!!!"
Kamijou opened his mouth wide as if he had never seen the market before.
It's not his fault, he thought it was just a separate restaurant suite, but he didn't expect the moment he stepped through the door.
What I came to was not a new room, but a new world!
When he raised his head, he saw a huge floating city, not smaller than the Tokyo Branch's 'Gaotianyuan'.Overall, it looks like a huge stone cross.
The main body like a huge cathedral is in the center, and bridges over a kilometer in length are erected in all directions.
There are large and small minarets erected on it, and these minarets are arranged in a certain order, exuding a strong magical atmosphere.
Thousands of exquisite angel statues and huge stained glass windows can also be seen on the outer wall.
If you want to compare it, it's like opening a church to heaven.
However, compared to Gao Tianyuan.
The suspended height of this huge church is not too high, only more than 100 meters above the ground.And it was tied with huge iron chains all around, as if it was afraid that it would be blown away by the wind.
"Welcome to [Camero], the general base of [London Ability Branch]."
Furutegawa introduced beside Kamijou.
"Although it is also an underworld, this area is different from Takamahara in the Tokyo branch. Although in terms of area, it is far less expansive than the underworld where Takamahara is located, it is about the same size as Greater Manchester. But there is a 'land' that Takamahara does not have. "
Only then did Kamijou come to his senses, he was indeed standing on the ground.
And the place where I am located is a small town, a real 'small' town.
Although the building is in a modern style, the area is about the same size as the western town in the western film.
The store manager smiled and explained to Kamijou: "This area does not have a name, only a number. However, I prefer to call this place 'Li Somerset County'. The ability users in the entire Somerset County, want to You need to pass here to go to 'Camelo'. So, I took advantage of my position to open an 'Excalibur' here, how about it? Not bad!"
