Chapter 394 Imperial Capital
Sitting in the back seat of the car in a daze, Yue Linger really didn't know how she decided to meet Acado. Along the way, she was sent back to Romer City by a special train transporting the wounded, and became farther and farther away from her hometown, the Eternal Night Empire.
The scene Linger saw along the way made her not only pleasing to the eyes, but also full of sadness: pleasing to the eyes is that under the careful governance of Arcado, most of the provinces have been full of vitality. People live and happily and live happily; and their faces are full of sadness because of the captives of the Eternal Night Empire. The group squatted on the roadside and built another railway with a yellow and thin face. They were beaten and scolded, adding bricks and tiles to the construction of the Holy Sword Empire day and night.
Yue Linger really didn't know what to say after seeing Arcado. She lowered her head and played with a wisp of green silk in her hand and kept silent.
Baron Duklad, who sat aside, did not disturb the dazed Yue Linger. He focused on holding a new hardcover biography "A Day in Jianye Port". He leaned one hand against the car window and folded back to support his chin. He still looked elegant.
On Romer's wide street, pedestrians politely avoided cars with the pattern of the military headquarters of the Holy Sword Empire, and some children lined up in the shadows of the side and stood upright to the car.
"Do they know what you have done in Arante?" Yue Linger couldn't stand the silent atmosphere and asked the elegant elf nobleman beside her.
"Who?" Baron Duklad was still so elegant. He raised the corners of his mouth and asked gently. While asking, he politely closed the book in his hand. He was simply born for the word gentleman, and everything can be regarded as a habit in him.
"These children!" Yue Linger glanced out of the window: "They worship you and the army of the sword, but you have committed heinous crimes in the distance."
Duklad smiled and said, "Miss, everything has two sides. Maybe these children have descendants of our soldiers who died in the war in Arante, don't you think so?"
He paused and continued to say to Yue Linger, "My idea is much simpler than yours. I just want to study here for the better future of the elf forest. His Majesty the regent let me see the hope of the elf forest, so I can kill all the enemies against His Majesty the regent with my sword, as for the enemies. It doesn't matter who it is or how much." His expression was a little unnatural, and it seemed that the purpose of his coming to the Holy Sword was not just to learn.
"You big men are so boring. Everyone is so stubborn." Yue Linger sighed helplessly and concluded.
"Everyone has his own persistence. If this belief is destroyed, this person will become a mediocre person. I'm glad that my persistence is still there." Duklad smiled gently and continued to look down at the book in his hand, instead of looking at Yue Linger.
Yue Linger stopped talking and watched the buildings on both sides retreating. Their cars were getting closer and closer to the palace of the Holy Sword Empire in the process.
Not long, a huge building appeared in front of Yue Linger. The huge building was magnificently decorated, and the car began to slow down slowly in a long distance, and then stopped at a sentry post.
A soldier in a black dress came over, saluted a military salute in the car, and shouted loudly, "H Long live the Holy Sword Empire!" Please show me your ID!" It is estimated that if it hadn't been for the military's car, the guard would never have been so polite.
Duklad rolled off the bed and handed the guard a small black notebook. The guard took it out and carefully identified it. Then he returned to the guard room next to the post and confirmed a man who was obviously an officer. The officer turned over the record and nodded. Then the soldier turned around and walked out respectfully. The book was handed back to Duklad: " Lieutenant Colonel Duklad! Welcome back to the imperial capital. After saying that, he gave a standard military salute.
Duklad returned a military salute, and the car started slowly again.
"This is the palace of the Sword Empire, which is the most sacred place of the whole empire. Her Majesty Queen Doris has been proposing to build a larger palace to show the achievements of His Majesty the Regent, but it was declined by His Royal Highness the Regent." Duklad did not continue reading, but introduced it to Yue Linger like a pilgrim.
Acardo's mood when facing Oniquelos, the elf king city a few years ago, now appears in the hearts of the elves. They came thousands of miles away to Romer, just to take a look at the palace of the great regent in his mind.
"He, is he waiting for me in the palace?" Yue Linger's face was a little red, a little nervous, and her heartbeat faintly accelerated.
Duklad shook his head: "Your Majesty the Regent's time is very precious, usually receiving guests in the office. It's the time that General Gavin personally made an appointment for you. You have about 15 minutes to interview His Majesty the Regent. While talking, the car drove through the main entrance of the palace and headed for a four-storey building on the side.
Before Yue Linger could ask another question, the car stopped after shaking twice in front of the building. Two soldiers with exquisite swords at their waists came forward gracefully and opened the door of the back seat of the car.
Duklad got out of the car, and the soldiers who opened the door for him immediately stood up and saluted: "H Long live the Holy Sword Empire! Welcome back to the imperial capital, Lieutenant Colonel Duklad!"
"His Majesty the Regent!" Duklad returned a military salute very formally and handed the sword around his waist to the guard.
A very gentleman made a gesture of invitation to Yue Linger, who had just drilled out of the car. Duklad took the lead. The two slowly walked into the main door of the building. The guards standing at the door stood up and saluted the two people, and the armor all over their bodies made a pleasant sound, making Yue Linger Town, who was used to hearing this sound. A lot has been decided.
The two walked through the corridor step by step, climbed the stairs, walked through the corridor, and climbed the stairs, passing countless offices and guards in the middle.
In some offices, several fox clans are arguing loudly with the orc boss sitting behind their desks, and three or five people in the office are nervously drawing something on the map, but most of the offices are closed and occasionally meet people coming out of it, with a solemn face.
Some guards came up to interrogate and asked for documents. At the beginning of the third floor, a guard followed two people. Compared with Yue Linger's first time saw Arcado in the Elf Forest, I don't know how strict the guards here are.
There are very few offices on the third floor. On one side of the corridor is a row of beautiful wide floor-to-ceiling windows, which can see the wide streets outside, dozens of neatly parked various cars, officials walking through the shade of trees in twos and threes, and a team of neat guards with majestic The pace passed by.
