Chapter 86 You are very much like my good granddaughter(1/2)
Night has arrived, and the sunset has disappeared into the mountains early.
The neutral country, Sana, has been an indispensable place for military strategists since ancient times. Without it, this place is located between the Goddess Forest and the Qingrong Grassland. There is no farming land and no natural dangers. It can be said to be easy to defend and attack. The most important thing is that it connects the main roads of the surrounding eight countries. Anyone who wants to occupy it has to ask other countries whether they are willing or not.
The establishment of Sana was just a joke at first, and the surrounding eight countries converged here. In order to facilitate business, merchants built a brief station here. It was precisely because the mutual transportation routes of multiple countries that could bring huge wealth that merchants gradually began to pay attention to it, and more merchants began to gather. Therefore, the small station gradually evolved into a small city, and then evolved into a big city, and finally expanded to the extremely rich place of the five counties and thirteen cities.
Then the neighboring countries began to be jealous of the wealth here. A country took the lead in sending troops and easily defeated the corps hired by merchants to protect the city, and occupied all the territory within two days.
The important transportation land + tax land was occupied, and the rest of the countries would not give up easily, so a battle that took sixteen years started here.
At the end of the battle, everyone found that if the war continued, everyone would probably be killed by this meat grinder, so everyone would not be quit and compete for the ownership of this place at the negotiating table.
This talk has been another sixteen years.
Then one day, everyone finally couldn't continue to talk and had no choice but to continue fighting.
He fought for another sixteen years.
Just when the surrounding eight countries were gradually unable to hold on because of the land that had become a black hole, the Mainland Commercial Alliance came forward and said that you would not think so. This place is no different from the open route anyway. Anyone who has thought about it will pass. It is better to invest in our business group to build a neutral country. If it is not built, it will not exclude other teams from passing through. Whoever wants to fight each other can also supplement our cultivation, and this place can also promote trade in various countries in normal times.
Of course, this is the premise that you don't come and attack
When everyone heard that, it was the same. With such a small country as a buffer and can increase trade taxes, why not do it? So forty-eight years of entanglement, Sana was established.
"It's really a pain in my spare time."
On the top floor of a building in Tavens City, where lights are reflected in the stars, Dongfang Yun smiled bitterly: "You said they have had these forty-eight years to improve their internal affairs and make the people live and work in peace and prosperity. Then, after they become stronger, they will attack the surrounding countries?"
"That's impossible." Standing behind Dongfang Yun, a central and peaceful female voice came from the black cloak: "These eight countries are in a staggering position, and the emperor's heart is to expand their territory, but others are not fools. In this case, once a country rises strongly, it will inevitably suffer from blows from all countries. They are afraid, so they naturally dare not blatantly make themselves stronger."
"Well, is it true that the gun shot the bird out of the head?" Dongfang Yun was also covered with a black cloak, but the golden silk marten fur on the cloak made it more luxurious. He did not wear a hat, so the eight small white teeth could be clearly seen under the lights: "But, we seem to be the bird out of the head now!"
The woman in the cloak behind her was more than two meters tall. She said calmly: "The Lord Father is naturally an exception. Even if you are in heaven, you will definitely not be able to stop it. This is the fate."
"Fate?" Dongfang Yun turned around and smiled, "I thought you didn't believe in fate!"
"The whole world is already too chaotic in this continent." The woman said, "If you want to resolve disputes, you must first step into disputes. Our strong entry is fate. Under the Lord's Father, all enemies will be judged, which is also fate."
"Okay okay!" Dongfang Yun shrugged and stood up from the building platform that was dozens of meters high: "It seems that it's time for us to leave."
"Yes." The woman leaned down, wrapped her hands around Dongfang Yun's chest from behind, and tried her best toes, and the two of them disappeared out of thin air.
As the capital of Sana, Tavens City has existed for 313 years and is the cultural and trade capital of the entire eastern continent. Su Wan once became famous here and brought the Su Chamber of Commerce to the commercial alliance.
Hundreds of years of development have also given Tavens a sufficient cultural heritage. If you look down from the sky at this moment, you will find that the lights in this city are brighter than the stars in the night sky. The quietness and peace of this city are not inferior to any country of a top power. There are the largest museums and libraries in the mainland, as well as the most famous Bissu auction house in the entire eastern continent. At the same time, the security and environment here also make people eager to stay.
The annual figure award ceremony of "Century Weekly" was held at the Custer Opera House in Tavens City. The magic screen of this opera house was found in the ruins of the High Elves Empire through countless magicians and archaeologists. In conjunction with the internal magic array that has been studied for more than 30 years, it only takes a special serving to shoot to transmit all the recorded scenes and sounds to the largest magic screen, and then transmits them to branch magic screens of nobles and merchants in various nobles and wealthy merchants all over the world through the magic array. Such high-definition horseless transmission is definitely more called a work of conscience than cable TV.
The annual figure award ceremony is not as reserved as other awards, but is held in a dance party.
The internal organs of the Opera House were enough to make the three thousand people sink into the ground in an instant, but the platform that was as smooth as a mirror was replaced. The waiters were already familiar with this set of business and quickly moved all kinds of gorgeous and rich food to the long table.
With the appearance of nobles and merchants in suits and evening gowns, the banquet officially began. Under the eighteen chandeliers that create crystal core functions in pure gold, these high-ranking officials and nobles talked and laughed while talking and laughing.
At this moment, on the big stage, twenty beautiful and colorful dancers danced gracefully with the elegant songs. Even though everyone was busy contacting "feelings" and business, no one cared about them at all, these dancers danced happily.
Dongfang Yun also ate very happily.
Cut into willow-shaped elixir, bite the big leaf-packed meat with oily mouth in one bite, and the golden lotus fish is pouring into the bone marrow along the nose, and the steamed moonbath that penetrates the first-class quality and color.
These are things that Dongfang Yun has never eaten before!
Dongfang Yun, who almost swallowed his tongue, was satisfied.
However, the cloaked woman standing behind him was a little embarrassed - although the cloak covered her head and couldn't see Dongfang Yun's eating behavior, this kind of eating habit still scared the people around her.
As the best, when have they ever seen this way of eating both hands that they need to eat?
Dongfang Yun didn't care about this either. When the beautiful host came on stage to invite guests to read the Most Popular Person Award of the Year, he was already full and was drinking happily with a glass of juice.
The Most Popular Person Award is worthy of its name. The award was won by three beautiful singers and seven sexy prostitutes... Well, they are prostitutes practitioners.
When the ten award-winning figures came on stage one after another to receive the prize, Dongfang Yun and the cloaked woman behind him had already walked to the sofa in the corner to take their seats. It was not until then that Dongfang Yun took off his cloak.
"Hey! It's you!" Another scream came from the side.
"Hey! It's you!" Dongfang Yun also widened his eyes.
Without it, sitting on the sofa next to it was Su Wan's friend, the daughter of Simon, the lord of Flo City, Sloke Empire, and the stupid girl An Feier.
Dongfang Yun really didn't expect that the girl who disappeared when she encountered the Golden Crown Sandworm actually survived. With her fourth-level power, she should have appeared somewhere underground in the desert.
What an unfathomable luck! Dongfang Yun has a malicious thought.
"You, you... why are you here?" Damao turned around on the forehead for a long time before asking.
She knew that Dongfang Yun had several night elves in her hands, but this naturally stupid woman obviously did not associate Dongfang Yun with the fearful demon king in Century Weekly.
"Why can't I appear here?" Dongfang Yun picked up the juice and pointed it at it. He was used to sucking it unconsciously, thinking in his heart whether this girl already knew her identity.
"Please! You still have the leisure to appear here. Don't you know that the army of the Dark Night King has begun to invade at this moment?" The dazed girl raised a finger and said solemnly: "I heard that the people of the Dark Night have begun to exchange fire with the Basque border cities, and our Flo City is also one of the border cities of the Goddess Forest. After attacking the Basque, the army of the Dark Night King is likely to invade Sloek. After all, clearing the border areas first is the best strategy! So you should take your people to support Sloek quickly. Although your subordinates are all strong men of the ** level, they can have some effect no matter what, right?"
Her understanding of Dongfang Yun was still half a year ago. Perhaps this is why she did not associate the past **-level powerhouse with the current half-step heavenly powerhouse when she saw the names of butcher Paji and the fishman Slada in Century Weekly.
Dongfang Yun was a little surprised by her words: "Clear the border? Are you thinking of this?"
"Of course not!" An Feier said thirstyly to the stage, and was now offering the top ten most valuable think tanks in the mainland: "The one wearing white clothes is my uncle."
"Oh..." Dongfang Yun didn't care and said, "Why should I support Sloke?"
"Don't you like Sister Su anymore? Her family is in Sloke... By the way, I want to ask you, "Century Weekly" says that Sister Su was caught in the goddess Yelin as a woman for the King of Dark Night. Why didn't you protect her well??" She was obviously very angry, and the dull hair on her head also turned into an exclamation mark.
"...How slow are you?" Dongfang Yun whispered to himself.
"What did you say?"
"No..." Dongfang Yun waved his hand and said, "I didn't go to Sloke, of course I have my plan. But how did you survive the sandstorm caused by the Golden Crown Sandworm?"
An Fei'er was so nervous that he immediately chose to forget Su Wan's incident when he heard his question. He said proudly: "I fainted at that time. When I woke up, I found that I was in an underground cave where there was a Earth Fire Lotus that could improve the level of Dou Qi. I was tired and hungry at that time, and I used all Dou Qi to offset the damage of the sandstorm, so I couldn't help but eat it. Unexpectedly, I was in the second level of the battle. Now I was at the sixth level~!"
"What a lucky luck!" Dongfang Yun sighed in his heart, but smiled and said, "That's really congratulations."
"Huh? You actually changed the subject!" An Feier turned around twice, bulged his cheeks and said, "You haven't said why Sister Su was stolen from the woman who is the King of the Dark Night!"
Dongfang Yun was so amused and laughed: "I will take you to see her one day, and you will make an agreement with her in person. In addition, didn't she say that she was voluntarily?"
He was not afraid of revealing his identity, so he simply opened his mouth.
"Ah?" The dazed girl thought for a while and said, "Have Sister Su ever said such a thing?"
She suddenly whispered and said in surprise: "I understand! Sister Su finally found out that she is not a Ji friend and doesn't like women, so she dumped you!?"
"Do you need to be so slow?" Dongfang Yun said: "What's more, I've said it a long time ago, Laozi is a pure man!"
"Hehe, no matter what, as long as she is happy." An Feier was satisfied when she heard that Su Wan was fine.
She glanced at the center of the venue, but saw a handsome young man in his twenties walking towards here, and couldn't help but look disgusted: "This guy is here again!"
"Who?" Dongfang Yun looked at it and said strangely: "Is he looking for you?"
"Have you heard Sister Su mention him?" An Feier sneered: "This man is the younger brother of Prince Kasia in our country, Prince Karov."
"Prince Cassia?" Dongfang Yun thought for a while, and then he dug out the fact that this man was Su Wan's fiancé from the depths of his memory. When he looked at Karov again, he felt that this guy was obviously a guy with a golden and jade.
An Feier said to himself: "This Karov is not the same type as his brother. Prince Kassia is talented and upright, while his younger brother is a lustful and lewd person. He has been haunting me these days."
If you like the weird guy with big breasts and brainless breasts, Karov must be a guy who was confused by the **.
Dongfang Yun sneered and continued to drink the juice.
He didn't notice that Karov's eyes staring at him was obviously himself.
"Miss An Feier, I'm so sorry for being busy with social engagements just now!" Karov was not too stupid. He apologized to the dacha girl first when he came.
An Feier snorted softly and said, "I dare not worry about the prince. An Feier stayed here very well."
Karov laughed dryly, looked at Dongfang Yun and said, "I wonder if this lady is?"
Dongfang Yun was stunned and looked up and said, "Are you blind? Laozhi is a man!"
Karov laughed: "Hahaha, the lady is so good at joking. If I treat you as a man, that would be blind, right?"
His laughter happened to sound when the music was paused, causing a flash of gaze.
Then the trouble came. A group of guys aged between sixteen and sixty saw Dongfang Yun’s eyes shining, and immediately walked over with a wine glass.
One of the guys in his thirties said, "His Highness Karov, this is a bit unkind. How can you enjoy the beauty alone?"
"It turns out it's His Highness Prince Alonso!" Karov laughed dryly.
This domineering guy obviously targeted Dongfang Yun as soon as he came, and the words "exclusive" meant not to take women seriously, but Karov didn't dare to say anything, because this Prince Alonso was the only son of Alonso III, the emperor of the Pompeii Empire, and the future Alonso IV. Now Pompeii is rising rapidly, and he no longer takes the Basquett Empire seriously. Alonso's dominance is naturally not without foundation.
"Since you know it's me, why don't you introduce this beauty to me?" Alonso looked proud.
"Your Highness Alonso's words are wrong. They should be introduced to everyone." A man who looked like he was in his thirties came and said.
"His Highness Benfica..." Karov's face became even stiffer. This guy was the second son of the Basquet Emperor Fury, and his talent was no less than his father.
"What? Do you want to fight me?" Alonso sneered.
"She is not yours, right?" Benfica sneered.
"Since that's the case!" Alonso laughed suddenly: "Everyone has the right to chase the beauty, Karov, just introduce the beauty to everyone present. It is his business for whom the beauty falls in love with!"
So patient! Scheming!
