Heroes of the Invincible Knight

Chapter 711 Empire (Completed)

After being carried by the crowd at the station to the Central Street of the Royal Capital, Handel finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked up to see that the Central Street was still crowded with people.

After several years of development, the current royal capital is more prosperous than before Richard took over. The originally wide Central Street has been expanded once. The width of the entire main street is close to 150 meters, but it is still crowded with people. Full of.

After the train opened to traffic, countless people poured into the capital every day, especially as the celebrations were approaching in the past few days. Too many people had become a burden, and the city guards had begun to restrict the flow of people into the city.

Both sides of Central Street were hung with bright yellow three-arrow flags, announcing the identity of the city's new owner.

Handel looked at this familiar yet unfamiliar city. He had only stayed in the south for more than three years. This golden dragon had almost become unfamiliar to him. Not only was it a lot more lively, but it also became a lot more energetic. At least The worries about the future are gone from the brows of people walking by on the road, and they are more longing for life.

After all, in the past few years, the orcs had almost invaded the royal capital, and the shadow of the war lingered. The increase in taxes due to the war would not only crush the common people, but many small nobles would go bankrupt because of the war.

But now when the human kingdom looks around, it feels like it's drawing a sword and looking around with a blank mind. The security crisis has long been lifted. In addition, Richard has promoted the policy of reducing the burden on the common people. The originally ruined people's livelihood has been restored quickly. It can only be seen that the king's capital has already A scene of great prosperity.

"Avoid! Avoid!"

"The Marquis of Hai enters the palace!"

"Avoid! Avoid!"

Just when Handel was about to find a hotel to stay, a loud shout from the city guard came from the south side of the street. The flow of people was forcibly separated into a four-to-five-meter-wide passage by the soldiers. Handel was walking in the middle of the road. With the flow of people, they were pushed to the front of the street stores.

First, two teams of city guard soldiers opened the way, and then two red flame horses pulled a huge water tank. The water tank was decorated with various gems. Even a non-professional businessman would know these gems that were about the size of their heads. They are worth a fortune.

Of course, the most eye-catching person in the team is not these gems, but a man who wears a crown, is two meters long, has gray-blue skin, has an appearance similar to humans but has many fish characteristics.

The people on the Central Plains are no better than the people on the southern coast. Most of the people in Jinlongdu have never been out of the Central Plains, and many people have never left the hundred-mile radius of Jinlongdu. The sea and the Haizu are to them They are all considered rare.

Everyone stood on tiptoe with their heads held high, wanting to see what the legendary Sea Clan looked like, and some even commented on it.

"If you don't look carefully, it's no different from humans. He looks quite handsome, but he's a bit taller."

"Hey, I wonder if their women are pretty too."

"Hey, you don't understand. The one above is their king. Most of the Sea Tribe people are not even 1.5 meters tall. They have hunched shoulders and look like dwarfs. You'd better work hard and find a serious woman. Bar."

The carriage passed through Central Street, and civilians on both sides gathered around to watch and point. The former Sea King in the water tank and now the Sea Lord of the Kingdom felt uncomfortable all over.

He wished he could immediately explode and kill all the humans around him who were pointing fingers at him, but just thinking about the sun crashing into the sea and the dense human army on the clam field, he still forced himself to stay rational and questioned the people around him in a gloomy voice. Paul:

"General Paul, are you humiliating me? Are you displaying me here as an exhibit?"

Paul smiled and said in denial:

"How could Lord Haihou think so? Passing through Central Street and receiving the attention and cheers of the people is the highest honor for us. Lord Richard also walked through Central Street like this when he returned to the capital."

"Are they cheering?"

Haihou glanced at the human beings who were pointing and pointing below. They were not cheering, but they were looking at monkeys.

"That's not my problem, that's your problem. When you walk through Central Street, others are cheering."

"But you're pretty good. The Dragon Army captured some orc noble prisoners and passed here before. All they threw were stones and rotten eggs."

Neptune, who originally wanted to say something, lowered his head when he heard this. He simply did not look at the humans on both sides and remained silent.

Things are afraid of comparison. At least compared to the orcs who died and their clans were wiped out, his treatment was much better.

royal palace

The golden Three Arrows Flag replaced the original Golden Dragon Flag, and there were golden flags everywhere. The palace city that was originally reduced to ruins has been completely restored, and it is even more magnificent than the previous one. The magnificent palace shines in the sunlight. Shine.

More than 100,000 people gathered in the square of the palace city, looking up at the central high platform. There were more people who were not qualified to enter the palace city and were blocked outside. Everyone knew what today meant, from the sky Looking down, densely packed heads of people surrounded the palace.

The Imperial Guard maintained order in the face of a formidable enemy. Facing a crowded and noisy crowd might be more difficult than having them fight the orcs again.

"Stop pushing in, step back, step back!"

"Let the Central Street stop the flow of people! No more people are allowed to come to Miyagi City. If we let people in, we will be squeezed to death!"

The Guards knight guarding the door was sweating profusely and commanded his soldiers to stop the crowd. Ever since he put on this blue and white armor, he had rarely been afraid. Today's huge crowd really made him feel... I once faced the oppression of giants on the ice field.

"that whoever!"

"Stop pushing forward, I'm talking about you!"

The sharp-eyed knight saw a strong figure in the crowd struggling to push through the crowd and move forward. He felt angry in his heart. It was because there was such a guy in the crowd that it was so troublesome for him to maintain order.

This person can squeeze through the crowd like this instead of following the crowd. He is obviously a master above the level of a knight. Even the weakest person can't get through now.

"It's me, Handel!"

"I don't care who you are! If you stay where you are, if you push over again, you will interfere with public order. I will arrest you as a city guard and put you in jail!"

Seeing that the opponent was still moving forward, the knight of the Imperial Guard had almost lost his patience. The knight's sword in his hand was unsheathed with a "clang" sound, and the threat was self-evident.

"I am the captain of the third legion of the Dragon Army. I am now a security baron in the south. I have proof of invitation!"

Handel squeezed forward while waving a certificate in his hand. Only with this certificate could he be qualified to enter the palace. If he was not invited, he could only experience a sense of participation at the door like the crowd outside.

Low-level nobles like barons are not very qualified to be invited. Even if they enter, they usually enter as a follower of a powerful person.

But the gold content of Baron Handel is different. He is a military meritorious baron of the Northland Army. He is naturally higher than those nobles in the past. Being invited to watch the ceremony also shows that Richard attaches great importance to these military meritorious nobles.

The knight of the Guards at the door softened slightly after hearing Handel's identity, and took back the unsheathed sword. This was one of his own from the Northland Army, and his attitude did not need to be so bad. He motioned to the soldiers around him to put him down. After coming over, he picked up the invitation in Handel's hand and inspected it briefly.

"Why are you here so late? The people in front have already gone in, and they won't let you in any later."

Although he was definitely one of his own, the guarding knight still sounded a little dissatisfied. This guy came so late and squeezed in the crowd, which completely caused trouble for his work.

"Sorry, it's a long way from the south, and there are too many people on the road today. I can't walk because of the crowds."

Handel himself never thought that the golden dragon could actually block people, and that it would be such a difficult thing for a knight to shuttle through the dense crowd.

"Come in quickly. The ceremony will start soon and no one will be allowed to leave. There are people from the Griffin Army guarding the place. They don't know the people from our Dragon Army."

"Okay, thank you!"

"Those at the back should not push forward. He has an invitation letter. No one without an invitation letter can enter!"

On the other side, Handel hurried into the palace city and finally arrived at the ceremony after undergoing several inspections along the way.

On both sides of the road, guards wearing blue and white cloth armor were divided into two teams. These warriors, with an average height of nearly 1.9 meters, gave off a majestic feeling just standing there.

Their eyes intertwined, monitoring the crowd with almost no blind spots, ensuring that possible accidents could be killed as soon as possible, even though the supreme majesty in their hearts was not afraid of any assassins at all.

What is even more shocking are the dozen giants standing next to the high platform. These Titans, who are more than ten meters tall, are all wearing golden armor and so-called short spears at their waists. Their huge heads wearing golden helmets are even higher than the platform. cut.

"clang!"

"clang!"

"clang!"

When the silent bell rang, the originally noisy scene instantly became quiet.

Everyone knows the real protagonist is coming.

The Titan, who was still a little higher than the platform, was the first to react. He leaned forward and half-knelt on the ground in the direction of the platform, trying his best not to raise his body higher than the platform in front of him.

Then the Northern Army guards arrayed around them let out a rhythmic war cry.

A golden dragon chariot flew over steadily from the horizon. The noble dragon lowered its head and let the reins wrap around its neck. The six golden dragons divided into two rows and flew smoothly towards the high platform in the center.

Two groups of angels with backs and wings guarded the dragon chariot, alert to unlikely enemies.

Even the old man who had experienced the Golden Dragon Kingdom in its prime period was stunned by this scene.

After all, except for the Aragorn period, those golden dragons later came to be the masters.

Even the best-tempered ones would never accept being asked to pull someone's cart. Those with a bad temper would often kill some people.

As for the people with black or white wings around them, they are more like some legendary mythical creatures.

Maybe Lord Richard is really some kind of god descending to earth?

The arrival of the dragon car brought the atmosphere to a climax, and the originally quiet crowd burst into loud cheers.

Most of the people in the square were aborigines from the Golden Dragon Kingdom. Although they knew that the Golden Dragon was nothing to Richard today, their hundreds of years of worship of the Golden Dragon still made them endure it when they saw the spectacular scene of the Golden Dragon pulling a cart. I couldn't help but feel excited inside.

At the same time, Richard and Messiah, dressed in costumes, sat side by side in the carriage.

There was a smile on Richard's face, but Messiah looked a little nervous, and squeezed Richard unconsciously with his little hands.

"boom!"

The dragon chariot stopped smoothly on the high platform. According to the golden dragon's habit, whenever he stood on such a high place, he couldn't help but raise his head and howl to show his presence.

But the six-headed golden dragon pulling the cart suppressed this instinctive impulse and leaned down quietly after landing.

Richard held Messiah's hand and walked out of the carriage. The attendants on both sides laid out the velvet blankets for him. Catherine, Moriel, Lint and other senior officials followed in sequence.

"Long live Lord Richard!"

"Long live Lord Richard!"

When Richard stood on the high platform, the people in the square cheered again, even more enthusiastically than before.

Richard instinctively waved to the dense crowd below, but he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in his heart. This feeling of being above ten thousand people could not help but make people a little intoxicated.

After a while, two archangels dragged a crown to Richard. No one was standing in front of him. Richard raised his head and took the crown from the tray and put it neatly on his head.

The speed was so fast that everyone who saw it was a little stunned.

There was no process at all, and the ceremony reached the final step. Only after the artillery started firing cannons did the people at the scene react.

"Long live His Majesty the Emperor!"

"Long live His Majesty the Emperor!"

Just when everyone thought the ceremony was about to end, a huge shadow appeared in the sky, and a sacred aura spread over the city.

A kind lady stood on the clouds. She first looked at Richard and nodded with a smile. Then she waved towards the crowd, and several pieces of golden light fell down. Finally, the entire capital was enveloped in a golden gauze mist. .

Everyone who bathed in it felt great comfort, some people with illnesses were relieved, and even some knights with hidden illnesses caused by training and battles were healed.

"That's it, Ms. Gaia!"

"A real miracle!"

Before the golden light dissipated, a huge golden dragon shadow appeared in the sky above the royal capital.

At first glance, it looks like a golden dragon magnified more than ten times, but if you look closely, you can see that the two are very different. The dragon shadow in the sky is more elegant and noble compared to the ferocious dragon.

If the appearance of the giant dragon makes people feel full of power and aggression at first glance, the golden dragon shadow in the sky is much softer, more elegant and majestic.

"Elrath!"

"It's Lord Elrath!"

The belief in the heroic and invincible gods spread during the Northland Legion's campaign. As the Northland Group grew stronger, the number of people who believed in the heroic and invincible world gods such as Gaia and Elrath also expanded a lot. Lanna Mtarudu gained some followers.

Many Gaia believers in the royal capital fell to their knees and called Gaia's name when they saw Gaia performing miracles in the sky.

In their hearts, the sanctity of Richard, the emperor, reached its peak.

Li Chaping looked at Ms. Gaia's shadow in the sky and didn't say much. He just nodded to acknowledge the other party's behavior.

It is unrealistic to ban all kinds of faith in this world. Richard can accept the order-oriented and kind-hearted gods of the Invincible Heroes world to establish faith in his country, but the bottom line is that he cannot override the secular world.

It cannot be like the situation in the original Elf Empire where the gods interfered with the world at will and treated everything in the material world as a playground.

The pope is under the secular emperor, and the emperor is on an equal footing with the gods. The gods are not allowed to perform miracles to affect the material world without consulting the emperor.

This is an agreement reached between Richard and the gods, all for the sake of the stability of order.

When Richard was crowned, the dragon pulled the chariot, and the news that several gods had performed miracles spread like a virus to the entire continent. The old and young who were originally dissatisfied with the Hunter family replacing the Charles family on the throne completely closed their eyes. Mouth.

With their strong personal strength, the powerful Beidi Group and the sanctity of Dieman, there is no reason to oppose the other party at all.

ten years

anjingcheng

That is the former Jinlongdu

No one knows why His Majesty Richard changed the royal capital to this somewhat strange name, but His Majesty's will must be carried out.

Richard not only changed the name of the capital city, but also changed the names of some difficult-to-pronounce cities in the south. For example, the largest city in the south was changed to Ninghai City by Richard with a stroke of his pen.

The fast trains bring goods from all over the world to this prosperous Anjing. Animal skins are specialties from the ice sheet, coral pearls from the South China Sea, fish and crabs from the deep sea. You can buy almost all the goods in the world in Anjing.

Just in time for the New Year, the entire city of Anjing is decorated with lights and the streets are crowded with people. Even though the city has expanded several times, it still cannot keep up with the expansion of Anjing's population.

The population of this human empire's capital city is close to ten million, which is simply an incredible number in this era.

With the combination of magic and technology, the newly built houses in the past ten years have generally been built to a height of more than ten floors. With various advanced planned infrastructures, Anjing City can barely accommodate such a large population. Now Anjing City has a location Better houses can be exchanged for a knight's manor of several hundred acres in the south, which made many Northland Army veterans who chose southern land feel a little regretful.

At this time, Richard, dressed in casual clothes, was walking among the lively crowd holding Messiah's hand, accompanied by a five or six-year-old child who looked at the surrounding things curiously and excitedly.

"Father, I want to eat that candied haws!"

When Richard took a quick look, he saw a middle-aged hawker with blond hair and blue eyes wearing relatively neat linen clothes, carrying a bunch of candied haws for sale. This weird sight was something that Richard was still not used to until now.

However, the candied haws on wooden sticks are even more diverse than in the previous life. In addition to the traditional hawthorn, there are also various fruits from the South China Sea that are wrapped in syrup and made into skewers. There are at least a dozen kinds of fruits on the cluster of candied haws.

Richard nodded, and a guard walked up and chatted with the vendor. Not long after, the guard came to Richard carrying a whole bunch of candied haws.

"Your Highness Aaron"

This is the only child that Richard and Messiah have had for more than ten years. With the strength of Richard and Messiah, it is almost inevitable that there will be few heirs. When little Aaron was born, the entire empire celebrated.

Old Hunter even used this as an excuse to hold a running banquet in Ironwood City for three days and was so drunk that he couldn't wake up for several days.

Little Aaron couldn't wait to take this large bunch of candied haws from the guard, which was several heads taller than him. It weighed twenty or thirty kilograms as if it didn't exist.

The guards were not surprised. It would be unusual for these two children not to be extraordinary.

"Give me one to try too."

At this time, a handsome man in light white brocade clothes came to Xiao Aaron, and he seemed to be attracted by the luxurious candied haws.

"Give!"

Little Aaron, who had a large cluster of candied haws, generously handed the other party a candied haws, without feeling anything wrong. However, the guards around him felt like they were in danger, and the hairs on their bodies almost stood up.

Although there was no ostentation when Richard took Messiah and Aaron out, there were still at least a dozen plainclothes guards around.

Although Richard and Messiah did not need the protection of guards, it was still not good to be hit.

Although the number of these guards is not large, they are all experts. The guards who can be around Richard are at least good at the earth level. Even after the resurgence of magic power, those who can reach the earth level are still in the upper level of the pyramid. In the past, they were all at the level of legion commander. of.

These people scattered around basically ensured that the crowd would not come within five meters of Richard, Aaron and others, and quietly separated the lively crowd. At this time, a strange man appeared inexplicably, obviously not much taller than them. A master who knows how many floors there are.

However, Richard waved his hand to signal the guards to be calm.

"Elrath, you came to Anjing City and didn't tell us in advance that the mighty Dragon of Light is coming. Why don't you let the believers organize a welcoming ceremony?"

"Why don't you go shopping in a dragon chariot with a guard of honor?"

"Haha, what else can we go shopping for?"

"There are tens of millions of people in Anjing City, and you have to come here to rely on me to eat candied haws on a stick."

"His Majesty Richard is as bright as the sun. It's hard not to notice you."

Having said this, Elrath straightened his face and asked a little seriously:

"When does His Majesty Richard plan to raise the throne?"

In Elrath's eyes, Richard, who is still walking in the world, is no different from the sun. It is only a matter of time before he conforms to the rules and becomes the sun itself.

Hearing this, Messiah looked at Richard nervously.

The gods who hold the throne high are in compliance with the rules, but it is not so easy to continue walking in the world.

But Richard just looked up, as if he could see the blazing sun in the dark night sky.

"Just let it run naturally, why bother controlling it."

"Being the sun is still too lonely, so lonely that there is no shadow."

"It's good that His Majesty Richard dominates the human world, which is also a blessing to the entire continent."

"certainly"

Now the entire empire is thriving under Richard's rule. Although it is also divided into nobles and commoners, rich and poor, slaves are basically banned. Nobles cannot kill people at will, and poor people can also have food to eat.

Moreover, Richard is not afraid of the corruption of the aristocratic class in the future. He himself is the fastest knife to remove carrion. Compared with those wise monarchs who do not live for hundreds of years, he can easily overlook the human world for thousands of years.

Thinking of this, he suddenly touched Aaron's head lovingly.

"I have wronged you. I will strive to be the prince for ten thousand years."

Aaron, who was only five years old, didn't understand what Richard was saying. He just nodded and continued to happily eat the candied haws in his hand.
