I Like This Dream!

At the beginning of the year 345 of the Cecil calendar, His Majesty the King, who had been widowed for less than half a year, announced that he would marry the youngest daughter of the Pulan family in the fall of this year.

Countless nobles were jealous for a moment, and even the Pulan family themselves were extremely shocked by the good thing that came from heaven, and accepted this gift with trepidation. You must know that the heads of the Pulan family are all just viscounts. They were born as big businessmen in Tewen City. They obtained the rare noble blood through intermarriage. It can be said that they are in a position that is neither above nor below, neither embarrassing nor embarrassing. In the eyes of aristocrats like Richard II who paid great attention to bloodlines, the Poulan family was only barely acceptable, and no one thought that the queen would be born from this family.

In comparison, the new queen only differentiated into an omega last year and is only twelve years old this year, which is far from the focus of attention.

Flora, the head maid, murmured dissatisfiedly for a while, saying that those bastards who took advantage of the situation would probably be even more proud. Only then did Anxu know that his mother, Mrs. Norma, was from the Pulan family, and Pulan was the "maternal family" who "colluded with the side clan and sucked Sullivan's blood."

If we hadn't cleared the place and stayed at the Sullivans' house to fight with our mother and relatives, would the progress of this dream have turned into a slap in the face after years of hard work in the draft palace? In An Xu's mind, girls (oh no, omegas) wearing tutu skirts, holding small fans, with electric sparks flashing in their eyes appeared in his mind, and he laughed uncontrollably.

Good clearing, great clearing, I'm so smart hahahaha.

Along with the news of the wedding came invitations to every lord and head of a noble family. Anna Sullivan was finally remembered. As Sullivan's quasi-family head and Abery County (that is, stretching from the Risibi Plain in the north to Thebes Spinning in the south, and surrounded by hills infested by strange beasts in the east and west, including The quasi-lord of the city of Abori and a territory of nearby towns and small villages), she will also go to Urburg, the capital of Armenan, to attend the wedding and be ennobled. The wedding was held in early autumn, and if we traveled by carriage, we would have to leave in late summer.

The teleportation array is not omnipotent. The teleportation location needs to be "anchored" in advance, which is usually drawn on the map by teleportation powers. Someone needs to arrive at the location to be teleported first, and the anchor point must be fixed before it can be opened. A teleportation array can only contact one anchor point at a time. The teleportation array on the border of Thebes can only go directly to Abery City, but the teleportation array from Abery City to Urburg is smaller than the former. It can only transport one or two people, and a few carriages of congratulatory gifts cannot be sent there. So Anxu once again experienced the pain of traveling long distances in a carriage.

Beyond the influence of Abori City and Thunder Castle, the road once again turned into an uneven dirt road. Most lords would never leave their territory more than a few times in their lives, especially the vast majority of civilians. What was the purpose of building roads? An Xu felt that his butt was broken into three, four, and then into one piece by a heavy ups and downs. Finally, he couldn't bear it and flew out, floating on the top of the carriage.

"A little further ahead is Skag County. Lady Eve also paved the road years ago." A chestnut-haired head poked out of the carriage and gave Anxu a comforting smile above him, " It’s a pity that except for Skag County, the roads north of Abery County are still in poor condition, and the lords who can only see the few gold coins in front of them will not spend money to build roads.”

The chestnut-haired boy sitting in Ansy's carriage is Caleb, the sixteen-year-old omega, the one Rebecca prepared for Ansy. Flora has been out of the aristocratic circle for many years, Anxu has no idea about the aristocracy, and Caleb, who has stored all the Nightingale's Maw information about Ulburg in his mind, is enough to prevent them from getting into trouble.

"Caleb has been trained as the next number one since he was ten years old. I treat him as my own son. Please treat him well." Anxu still remembers how Rebecca wiped her tears hypocritically, and then He winked at her meaningfully and said, "Of course, besides consulting, he can do something else."

"No, thank you." An Xu replied flatly at that time.

"Oh, where did you think you were?" Rebecca glanced at her angrily, "Ms. Eve has arranged for Caleb to be a fallen nobleman, and he can be brought into the banquet as your companion. If someone mentions it, it will only work. You can only accept the territory after marriage, so you can let him pretend to be your fiancé, which is better than being accused of marriage out of nowhere. Oh, little Caleb is still innocent."

Caleb looked coy and coy beside him, while Anxu wiped the blood from his mouth in his heart.

Caleb is indeed a boy. He is a handsome boy who is very good-looking. In reality, he is also a handsome boy who is liked by many people. It's a pity that An Xu really doesn't want to take a bite of Mo Bianmei Shota, so he has to let him perform his duties as a commentator in a decent manner.

"If I provide money and people, can I build a direct road?" An Xu asked.

"I'm afraid not, that will make the lords and even kings along the way doubt your intentions." Caleb pouted regretfully, "Only lords are qualified to manage their own territories, and only kings have the right to interfere. Although Sullivan's ancestors were once reasonable Cha I, a close minister, also married the princess to the head of the Sullivan family, and now there is nothing you can do about it."

"Really annoying."

"There is no way to improve this except waiting for a wise lord to become king."

"Is it my imagination or something?" An Xu looked at him suspiciously, "Were you encouraging me to rebel along the way?"

"What I said are all facts." Caleb said honestly and innocently, "Whether it is to improve the road conditions across the country, or the fact that the Sullivan family has royal blood and theoretically has the qualifications to become a prince, it couldn't be more true. .If you hear what it means, you must have made up your mind. Right?"

As he spoke, he turned back to look at Lydia in the carriage, and nudged her with his elbow very familiarly. The ascetic monk stopped scribbling in his notebook and glanced at the cheap-handed boy. Under that cold and bleak look, Caleb chuckled.

In addition to the servants on this trip, Anxu only brought the head maid Flora, the narrator and "companion" Caleb, and the bound milk Lydia - Lydia learned enthusiastically under Alva and became very direct. Following her mentor's studies for graduate school and Ph.D., An Xu once planned to leave her behind temporarily, but Lydia followed her after hearing that An Xu was leaving.

Caleb, or the Rebecca or Eve he represents, Sima Zhao's intentions are clear, but An Xu's uninterested mentality in competing for hegemony is also clear. Even if the poor road conditions elsewhere in Amenan had increased her rebellious intentions by several percentage points, she was too lazy to take over such a huge mess.

"I don't want to be a king. What's the benefit of being a king?" Anxu looked at the messy scene outside the carriage and said, "The king's enjoyment may not be as comfortable as ours."

"How do you know?"

"The nobles elsewhere can only dip bread in honey, but the children here in Thebes can eat sugar. What good things can the king have?" Anxu said disapprovingly.

"You said it too early," Caleb shook his head and showed a mysterious smile, "You haven't been to the Golden City yet."

He is right.

A few thousand meters away from the royal capital, a smooth road appeared that could allow eight horses to run side by side. From here, a tall tower piercing the sky could be seen from a distance. The golden tower, which is hundreds of meters high, shines brightly in the sun, enough to hurt the eyes of those looking at it. Getting closer, carriages wearing various noble family crests were like a tide rushing towards the city, and there was a constant flow of servants in gorgeous clothes. They are all piled up like white marble poured from the same mold to form the city wall of Uburg. The wall is as smooth as a mirror. Outside each shooting hole, there is a vivid stone statue of a ferocious lion, holding a gold, red and white flag in its mouth. It was the shield, the firebird, and the golden lion—the emblems of the Tolan royal family, rulers of Amenan.

Anxu and his party set foot on the land of Urburg in the early autumn of this year, and Anxu understood why Urburg was called the City of Gold.

Countless pedestrians were bustling in the streets, but at a glance there were no ragged civilians. There seemed to be no poor people in the city. From time to time, there are shadows passing by in the sky, including people wearing uniform clothes, as well as flying birds and beasts wearing bracelets symbolizing "domestication". The streets are spotless, with various storefronts selling all kinds of goods, which makes people dazzled; troubadours and jugglers perform on high platforms, and lively music can be heard everywhere in the city; tricolor flags are planted They filled every corner of the street, and one look at them made An Xu dazzled and reminded him of his hometown during the National Day.

It’s incredible, this bustling and neat city looks like it’s in the modern day at first glance.

"The 'golden tower' is the symbol of Urburg." Caleb explained competently to Anxu, who climbed back into the carriage. "It used to be the watchtower of the sanctuary in the Dark Ages, until one day after Amennan established the country as its capital. It took a hundred years for it to lose its function. Henry II asked the superpowers to heighten the tower, and Henry III asked the superpowers to cover the waist of the tower with gold foil, which resulted in what it looks like today. We are going to the west of the Golden Tower To settle down in the place, His Majesty the King used hundreds of plant powers to build huge treehouses and warehouses that could accommodate all the lords..."

Yes, An Xu came to his senses. What made this place so prosperous was not manpower and technology, but unreasonable abilities.

The smooth ground relies on earth power users, the city walls rely on rock power users, the clean streets rely on exorcists, and so on. The king is showing the invitees the powers he possesses, which are wealth, craftsmen and weapons.

But to Anxu, this display was tantamount to ogling a blind man. She has seen ordinary people move mountains and reclaim seas, and build even more spectacular cities than this with their hands. The Uburg was not so much a shock to her as a novelty, the novelty of visiting Disneyland. Ansu looked around and listened to the explanation of the tour guide Caleb. He felt that Urburg was more luxurious than Thebes Fortress, more solemn than Abori City, and more secular than St. Andrew's Seminary in Alinggu. It was really It is worthy of being the capital of Amenan.

Then, she suddenly saw something.

The people in front of them were obviously a team, with more than a dozen people leading horses and wearing leather armor with green patterns. They all looked capable of being soldiers. They seemed to have a conflict with another group of people with red patterns on their armor, but before Ulburg's patrol team came out to maintain order, one of them stood up and said something, and the crowd that had just begun to smell of gunpowder calmed down again.

From this position, you can only see the back of the man's head from a distance. He has short blond hair, is very tall, and has a strong body wrapped under his cloak. An Xu stared blankly for a while, then came back to his senses and sneered at himself, "I must have met too few handsome guys. I can look at a tall guy (but most of them have a good figure) for so long. Even the parents I don’t know anything about him (but he must be in good shape, look at his arms!).

Caleb noticed Anxu's dullness and squeezed over to look there with her. He said "Oops" and cheerfully explained: "That's the Knights of the Wind!"

"Oh." An Xu nodded without knowing why.

"That Knights of the Wind! My idol!" Caleb was already covering his chest and talking, "Did you know that the Knights of the Wind are the only knights without an alpha! There are many omegas! Including their branch leader... …”

Anxu was distracted again by his chattering in the background. She always felt like something was coming out of her head, like a slippery fish that she couldn't catch. She looked out again and saw that the people in the two teams had dispersed. The man blended into the crowd and soon disappeared.
