I'm the King Of Technology

Chapter 1502 Into The Royal Capital, We Go!

With everyone up and on their feet with full bellies, they were finally ready to head into the Capital in teams.

The day team was up on their feet while the night team went straight to bed. As for Landon, he had warped into his space after sleeping in his private pod.

Everyone thought he slept for just 2 hours. But the flow of time in his space gave him ample, if not excess sleeping hours.

And now, he was up and about, ready for action!

Standing face to face in a circle-like manner, all team leaders gathered around Landon.

"Captain Crowley, Bianca, Kayden... (10 more names)... Emma and Jennie... I assume you all know how heavy today's tasks are."

Everyone nodded with stern expressions.

That had 3 days of work to do, all in just a single day.

Of course, with the inflow of people going in and out of the Capital on a distant basis, their arrival might not be too suspicious, though they would stand out because of their skin tone. But it wouldn't be too bad, since many foreigners regularly visit the Capital.

Zohl was between the continent of Tenola and Romain.

And though closest in relation to Romain, several people from Tenola always passed by frequently.

Tenola people had skin tones similar to Lucy's mothers. They just had significantly paler complexions.

Of course, they were still similar in color to Pyno's. So many wouldn't find their appearances off-putting or too bizarre to raise suspicions. This was probably why the T.O.E.P from Morgany would move about easily too.

All in all, there shouldn't be a problem with them moving into the Capital, provided they paid the entrance fee.

.

"Your majesty, we are ready."

All Captains replied, dawning regular clothes worn by those in Titarian.

Good.

Landon nodded, leading the group away from the campsite and through the forest.

And after 2 and a half hours of walking, they finally reached the Main roads.

Of course along the way, they did meet several beasts who wanted them as morning meals. But the beasts were handled by those exporting them towards the main roads.

After arriving, they didn't set out all at once.

And from time to time, they popped out of the woods and began acting like travelers. Some even after as though they had gone into the bushes earlier to take as dumb and were now on their way, continuing their journey to the Royal Capital city.

Some managed to hop onto the wagons of passing farmers and peasants, while others chose to buy off horses from the passing travelers at 3 times the cost.

What? 3 times the cost?

Many peasants were quick to sell their horses to these strangers who seemed to have fled for their lives from bandits.

These foreigners looked tired, as though about to faint at any given time. Their clothes were haggard and twisted with soil and grass scattered over as though they had been running and falling while fleeing.

To some of them, they successfully fled 2 days ago from a bandit attack and had been running in the woods ever since while trying to find an exit towards the roads.

Many knew how complicated their terrain was to foreigners. So this story was very justifiable.

After all, a common joke in Titarian was that foreigners would always get lost out in the wilderness.

Bit by bit, the Baymardians revealed themselves to the many travelers passing by, but not all at once.

They waited for the first group of people to go a further distance ahead before popping out again.

And in no time, they were successfully on their way to the Royal Capital.

But even though there were many groups in total, each team only had no more than 6 people, lest they draw too much attention to themselves.

Everyone went on their way as though they were completely unfamiliar with one another.

Even within teams, some people went on alone since they knew the rendezvous point they would meet up in the city.

The Air Force units had spent the entire night detailing the many streets, strange hills, and sights to look out for. Everyone more or less had an understanding of the Capital.

.

Landon pulled the reins of the overly fat and strong-legged horses while the owner rested merrily.

That's right.

He, Landon, was one of the men going into the city Solo. He was last to leave, hitchhiking a farmer's wagon filled with hay.

Of course, nothing like this could be free. So he not only offered to drive the wagon forests but gave all his 'catch' he acquired in the forest to the farmer.

If one didn't have money, trading with food and grain was still an option in medieval times.

It was just that the prey he offered was too good and too plump that the father couldn't resist. Moreover, Landon also provided the man with some of the rock-looking fish he captured in their composite streams and grilled in his space, seasoning it up with a few Baymardian spices.

With all the Baymardians gone ahead, he took out the cooked fish and wrapped it in several big leaves.

Just the smell alone was enough to make the farmer salivate.

And now, Landon was driving the wagon while the farmer was still munching on the fish, closing his eyes to enjoy the delectable taste.

"Good Creator Of the Heavens! What sort of tasty fish is this? How can you make it taste so good?"

This was the best cooked fish the farmer had ever eaten!

Landon chuckled. "Back in my empire, we like to rub several plants. And grass on our fish and meat before eating it."

"Wonderful!"

The farmer was already sold!

No wonder he couldn't eat such fish here. Maybe it has to do with the many methods Landon's empire used.

What a pity.

.

The farmer dropped a tasty piece of fish in his mouth and quickly yanked out the many pieces of fishbone from his mouth.

"So you were also coming for the corporation?"

"Ah!---" Landon gave off an innocent look filled with excitement. "So the news is true?"

"Of course it is true! Our new Monarch will soon take his place on the throne!"

Landon nodded obediently while listening to the farmer go in and on about how great Gregory and his late father are.

The way he spoke, someone would think he was their campaign manager or something. But this was what it meant to be loved by the people.

The farmer didn't know it, but when something of the 2, his chest would rise high and his face full of pride.

He slapped Landon's back playfully. "Aiyy... You don't know, but before the late Monarch's reign, things had just been so bad for us common folks. But after some time, the late Monarch began making changes that benefited us. The man was a great man home we all loved. Sadly, his illness took him away."

'Illness? More like poison.' Landon inwardly retorted, still maintaining an innocent smile.

"I've been hearing about the condition on my way to the Capital, but I didn't think much of it," Landon added.

The news was released a while back, and many of the cuties and towns in this central region knew of the coronation. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net

So saying you've been passing through all the cities and roads, not hearing about the coronation, would be too ridiculous.

In the end, Landon went with a little white lie with more truth to it, explaining his reasons for heading to the Capital.

Like so, the duo continued their 2-show conversation until they reached the massive city gates.

.

'So mighty!'

This was Landon's first impression seeing the towering walls up close.

Firstly, one could see that the ancient people who first built the city walls took their sweet time in leveling many hills and spaces to create a firm and even ground to build the city walls on.

If he had to say, he would guess these walls were far taller than his new Baymardian walls.

They made them so tall and thicker than average, while also considering their strange terrain conditions across every part of the wall.

Again, the external thick layer of the bottom and middle parts of the walls were made from our old glow stones. That way, if someone was trying to infiltrate at night, wouldn't they just be spotted?

Looking at the river channels that flowed in and out of the city, one could see many layers of tiny bars to prevent people from swimming past the city walls.

Again, these gutter-like regions also had glow stones lined in and out.

The more Landon looked, the more interested he was in the glow stones.

.

"Next!!"

Landon quickly drove the wagon towards one of the many guards calling to them.

There were 2 lines of travelers going into the city and another 2 for those exiting.

"Reason and feel!"

"Here to make it big! I am to register in a hunting guild. Here's my fee."

Seeing his naive and overly excited face, the guards only scoffed.

He wasn't the first to come here thinking of making it in the big apple.

What a dreamer!

"Next!!"

Landon and the farmer were in the clear after being searched and proven harmless.

Good.

Landon narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Now it was time to sneak into the palace. Today, he had to meet Gregory!
