Book of Gods and Demons

Chapter 143: Imperial Capital (1)

When Joe ran on the wall of his bedroom, Hyderabad, the imperial capital of the Durham Empire.

The Lanyin River originated from the northern mountains of the Lanyin Corridor. At first, it was less than half a mile wide, and after absorbing dozens of small and large tributaries along the way, it has become a huge river with a width of dozens of miles in the heart of the empire.

In the central area of ​​the empire, on the vast plains, there was a sudden depression.

The mighty Lanyin River plunged into this area of ​​a dozen province-sized depressions, forming the largest swamp area at the core of the Durham Empire.

Hyderabad, just west of the Everglades, on the north bank of the Lanin River.

This is a large plain with abundant soil and water. After the meticulous construction of generations of Emperor Derren, the buildings are arranged neatly and orderly on the large plain. Against the backdrop of the mist floating in the large swamp, the weather of Hyderabad Quite majestic.

With the earliest built Hyderabad Castle, also known as the Hydra Palace, as the core, the west side of Hyderabad, surrounded by rivers and surrounded by green trees, is the university city area of ​​the Durham Empire.

Outside the back door of the First University of the Imperial Capital of the Durham Empire, the famous food street is bustling with excitement. It is the most leisure time of the day. Because of the high subsidies of the empire, college students who are not short of money in their pockets are squandering their energy on the food street.

In the middle section of Shishi Street, the best part of the whole Shishi Street, in the old grandmother’s tavern, which covers an area of ​​half an acre, a traditional drama is being staged.

In the brightly lit pub, a group of students from the Department of Physics of the Imperial Capital No. 1 University were fighting with a group of students from the music department of the Imperial Capital No. 4 University next door.

"You shameful little white faces!" The physics student cursed like this.

"You bunch of useless nerds!" The music department students questioned each other.

Wine glasses are flying in the air, drinks are sprayed overhead, countless people in the tavern are cheering and roaring, a group of students from the Department of Metallurgy of the Second University and a group of students from the Department of Epidemic Prevention of the Third University are standing on the wine table, clapping and stomping wildly. This group of bunched up guys cheer.

At the entrance of the tavern, two patrolmen in black uniforms were already standing.

They stood at the door, peering into the door, smirking ‘hahaha’.

The Empire treats this group of talents with high IQ very preferentially. These guys are drinking, fighting, and making troubles. But as long as there is no trouble, as long as no lives are killed, let them be alone!

Young people should be so passionate!

An old lady with gray hair, wearing a coarse cloth dress, and a kind-looking old lady was holding a ledger in her left hand and a fountain pen in her right, standing behind the carnival students, mumbling records.

"One tinplate...two...three..."

"One table leg... two... three..."

"Oh, one plate... two... three..."

"Damn...you be careful..." the old lady suddenly yelled, "Look at what you do!"

A seat flew out of the crowd and smashed on a barrel of wine against the wall of the pub. A wooden barrel full of fresh beer was smashed. The dark brown beer mixed with a large amount of white foam sprayed out. It has to be all over the room.

The old lady shook her head and raised her hands up high: "Well, little guys, you have to pay for this account!"

A student watching the excitement standing in front of the old lady turned his head and winked at the old lady: "Don't worry, grandmother, they have enough money to compensate for the subsidy just issued yesterday!"

The old lady rolled her eyes and laughed a few times with a ‘ooh ah ah’: "Okay, then, go ahead..."

An ordinary-looking middle-aged man wearing a small black uniform and a black round hat emerged from the crowd and murmured a few words in the ear of the old lady.

The old lady's smile froze, and she rolled her eyes again.

Soon, the old lady stuffed the account book and pen in her hand to a waitress in the tavern behind her, she passed through the chaotic crowd, walked into the counter of the tavern, and entered the kitchen behind the counter.

An ordinary-looking four-wheeled carriage quickly drove out of the food street.

The four-wheeled carriage passed through the campus of Imperial Capital First University, through the luxurious residential area built for the professors of the first university on the east side of the campus, through a small piece of wood, and after passing two stone bridges, it drove directly into Hyde Pull palace.

Passing through the three heavily guarded palace gates and bypassing more than a dozen tall and magnificent palaces, the carriage finally stopped in front of a modest and unremarkable palace surrounded by gray thorns and made of granite.

The old lady with gray hair and thick sarong walked down from the carriage with her face drooping, and the surrounding air suddenly became messy. Invisible winds danced wildly in the sky, and large swaths of blooming gray thorns swayed with the wind. , Set off a wave of waves like waves.

The old lady's hair changed rapidly from a flowery white to an iron-like dark gray, and the original light green eyes also instantly turned into a deep iron gray.

There was a crisp sound from her body. The old lady who was about five feet ten inches tall and had a rickety waist suddenly turned into a tall woman with a straight waist and a height of nearly six feet six inches.

Her wrinkled face also became tender and plump, completely turning into a beautiful woman in her thirties.

It's just that they are as beautiful as Duke Rose's flowers. The beautiful face of this ‘old lady’ has sharp lines, and even carries a heart-palpitating fierce and hideous aura.

Impatiently patted the long coarse cloth skirt with her hand, and the ‘old lady’ walked into the palace in front of her with her head high and her chest high.

Inside the palace, in the spacious and long corridor, a court knight in a traditional knight costume saw the'old lady'. He knelt on one knee, bowed his head deeply, clenched his right hand firmly, and placed it on his heart. on.

The'old lady' held her head up and walked quickly with a gust of wind.

Where she passed, the bright gas lights in the corridor suddenly dimmed, and twisted black shadows appeared on the wall inexplicably. There was a strange ‘hiss’ sound in the air, and the court knights kneeling and saluting along the way were suppressed by the invisible pressure in the sky and shuddered, with cold sweat constantly oozing out on their foreheads.

The ‘old lady’ walked to the end of the corridor, and the two court knights standing in front of the door, wearing full armor, turned around, pushed the door behind them hard, and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty, here!"

'Old lady', the current queen of the Durham Empire, Margaret III, waved her hand impatiently and stood at the door yelling: "Your Honorable Prince, Your Excellency the Duke, and all the capable and shrewd ministers, heroic, Fighting generals, is there anything that you can't solve, but you have to trouble my old lady?"

"Aha, didn't I make it clear? Unless the gray herd of Lucia invades again, or the empire loses more than five provinces at once, don't bother me! Don't bother me!"

Margaret III sullied her face and squinted. Behind her, there was a large area of ​​darkness rolling like a tide, and the powerful pressure swept in waves like a tsunami.

Behind the gate, the air in the huge hall was surging crazily, and the gust of wind blew the curtains and the curtains on the walls. The tables and chairs shook'Kakaka', and the table legs and chair legs hit the ground with a dull sound .

A dozen men standing in the hall bowed to Marguerite.

An old man who was thin, tall and tall like a bean sprouts, took a step forward with difficulty: "Your Majesty, maybe the matter is much more serious than the five provinces we have lost."

With a ‘call’, the black fog behind Margaret III disappeared, and all the visions in the hall disappeared.

She clapped her hands and walked blankly in front of a group of empire officials in the hall, and walked straight to a lounge behind the curtain.

After just a few minutes, Marguerite III, who put on a blood-colored dress and a long sword on her waist, walked out again. She put her hands on her chest and squinted at the dozens of people in front of her. A confidant.

"What happened?" Margaret III's voice was extremely cold and harsh: "War? Plague? Or other natural disasters?"

"Could it be that Lucia's gray beasts have forgotten the lesson ten years ago, do they want to go to war with us again?"

"Or, the group of sea dogs in Santa Xia suddenly became bolder. They actually landed from Tulum Harbor, wanting to fight us to the death on land?"

The skinny old man gave a dry cough: "No, your majesty, maybe it's more troublesome. Here, there is an investigation report on the Zhongqiu murder in Tulum Port and some subsequent analysis of the situation. Please go through it first."

A court clerk carrying a briefcase, stiffly came to Margaret III, carefully took out a few documents, and handed them to Margaret III.

"Zhongqiu murder?" Margaret III raised an eyebrow: "The Zhongqiu murder in Port Tulum? Ah, my dear, do you have a letter from my little Rose?"

Margaret turned around and greeted the large curtain behind her~www.wuxiaspot.com~ A tall man, nearly seven feet tall, looks in his early forties, wears a uniform of generals, and has a straight waist. , The mighty and unusual man strode out from behind the curtain.

"The Duke of Ross sent you a secret letter, and I used your name to reply to her." The burly man, the husband of Margaret III, and Matta XIII, who had the prince of the Empire, walked to Marguerite. Next to Lite III, with his hands behind his back, he slowly said: "When I replied, the murder of Zhong Qiu was still in a state of complete control."

Shaking his head, King Mata XIII glanced at the dozens of top empire figures in the hall, and said coldly, "But then things became completely out of control... Some people were a little too courageous! "

Only then did Margaret III take over the file in the hands of the clerk.

She gently patted the file in her hand and said coldly: "Then, let me see what happened."
