The speed of the two-house ship is indeed beyond the expectations of the crowd.

Just as it appeared in the capital of the Kingdom of Sere, the messenger sent by Commander Sere in two days had just arrived at the gate of the palace. However, this did not prevent him from reporting to the king immediately. Afterwards, the Kingdom of Serere responded immediately. While the Kingdom of Serere was hurrying to prepare for the welcome ceremony, Li Lin stood on the deck, leaning down at the building below.

"To be honest, although I have heard that your living conditions are very poor, I didn't expect it to be so bad."

He shrugged and said to Commander Serey who was standing next to him.

"There is no way."

Commander Sere replied with a pale face. This was not because he surrendered to the powerful power of the floating ship or because Li Lin used an inhuman threat to him, but because of a human instinctive reaction. In fact, not long after getting on the floating ship, the poor Commander Sere began to vomit. Until he was about to spit out all his bile, Li Lin, who couldn't see through, asked a mage to cast a magic spell on him, which made the poor commander relieve him a lot. Otherwise, if he couldn't spit out so much that he walked off the floating ship in a human form, others might think he would do anything to the other party.

"Although we have a pretty good army, our natural environment is really bad, as you can see."

Indeed, although he had received some details about this country from Nia and Catherine, it was not until he saw it with his own eyes that Li Lin discovered that this country was far more difficult than he thought.

Even if ordinary mountainous countries do not have enough resources to become agricultural powers, they will at least have minerals and wood. However, the Serei Kingdom really has nothing. The place where this country is located is a chaotic stone mountain, with few trees. The entire mountain is so hard that it is impossible to dig a hole with a hoe. The only specialty of Serei is stone.

They have nothing but stone.

Sometimes, even the Serei people would joke that they were actually descendants of dwarves, so they were able to get along so closely with Shi Tou. If someone else came, I would probably not be able to stand it long ago.

This is also the pride of the Serei people.

Their land is very poor and has almost no way to plant any crops. Fortunately, there is at least one problem in Serey that is the water source problem. Although it is a stop, it is surprisingly rainy. The hard rocky land did not lose soil under a large amount of rain because they have no soil to lose.

The Kingdom of Serei did not live like the Thousand Towers City. They lived a life of the whole nation as soldiers. The harsh natural conditions made this happen. The citizens of the country had a strong body that other countries could not match. The natural harsh environment was like a filter, eliminating all those who were not strong enough and were not strong enough to support the survival, leaving only the winners who could continue to survive. Serei was very confident about his own army, but self-confidence was one thing, but quantity was another. Because of the elite military strategy, the Kingdom of Serei could not mobilize as many troops as the Five-Nation Alliance. They naturally understood that they were just ordinary humans. If they took the initiative, they might be killed by the Five-Nation Alliance. Although their soldiers' qualities were "average" in the eyes of the Serei people, the number was definitely the best in the mainland.

Now, Serey has no such concerns. They are eager to obtain the middle plains of Laria and hope to expand their power through this.

After seeing their capital with his own eyes, Li Lin understood why the Serei people had such thoughts.

Their kings are so worn.

Generally speaking, the capital of the country is their face. Even a country like Diedas, which is at the lowest position in the Central Plains of the Five-Nation Alliance, has its royal city as majestic and mighty. Although it is not the case in other places, the country is the same as a human being. Sometimes it depends on one face to live. At least, this will add a touch of favor to the visitors.

But Sere's royal city can only be said to be "neat." It is hard to say that it is "beautiful".

Looking around, what happened? The royal city was full of smooth stone houses. According to Commander Sere, the houses of Sere people were almost the same. They carved stones and used these stones to build houses for living. Basically, in the kingdom of Sere, all the houses except the palace were pure stones, and there was no trace of wood at all, because wood was too luxurious for this country, and there were too few trees that could grow on this land.

So, when he saw this bare royal city, Li Lin's first reaction was to drink water. He felt that he had the illusion of coming to the center of the Sahara Desert.

And there is no oasis here.

Not long after landing in the square on the top of the mountain, Xiao Lilin saw the soldiers and their king who were fully armed.

"Dear Master, welcome to the Kingdom of Sere."

Although Li Lin still did not tell the other party about his true identity, the welcome of the Kingdom of Serei is still very thoughtful, and this is the first time Li Lin saw the king of the Kingdom of Serei.

This is a very brave man.

This is Li Lin’s first impression of him.

The unique "strongness" of the Serei people fully reflects Shan Yong. Although he symbolically put on one's armor and weapons, Li Lin felt that the king in front of him was like a soldier than a ruler. However, he learned from Commander Serei that the ruling system of this country was essentially close to militarism, so he was not particularly surprised by this.

"To be honest, this is the first time I have come to your country."

Facing the king in front of him, Li Lin smiled gently and walked up to shake hands with him.

"I have to say, I'm very surprised that it is really admirable that your country can persevere under such harsh conditions."

"You have been too rewarded. When Mr. Mage heard Li Lin's sincere speech, the king smiled very enthusiastically.

"We will always have to survive, but you said, his eyes looked at the floating ship that was still floating in the air not far behind Li Lin.

“We can’t create such powerful and magical things as a magical empire.

He was kind enough to just say something on the surface, and then Li Lin walked into the palace under the leadership of the king.

What's wrong, the palace is like other buildings, all of which are carved from stone. The difference is that it is a palace after all, so exquisite patterns are carved everywhere on the walls and columns built by the stone, as well as some very luxurious decorations. But that's all. In fact, even the tables, chairs, benches, and even beds of the entire palace are all made of stone. Even Li Lin doubted that these Serei people would really have something to do with the dwarves.

Of course, this question with Hu Yuyu's politeness only moved a few times deep in Li Lin's heart, and then he discussed the formal issue with King Serei.

Li Lin’s request was very simple. He would provide a mobile fortress. Assist the Kingdom of Serey to occupy the plains of Laria, a thousand years ago, the plain was the birthplace of Laria, and they also gradually became stronger by relying on the plains of the fat plain. Of course, after devouring the land of the Magic Empire, Laria decisively moved the capital and entered the range that they should not have entered, but it was only there. The Kingdom of Serey was not allowed to enter the territory of the Magic Empire without passing by, which is the condition of the Magic Empire.

As for this, King Serei agreed immediately. At the same time, he understood Li Lin's idea, so he took the initiative to restrain those countries that tried to conspire to the magic empire without any tricks, and even attacked them if necessary.

Li Lin had no objection to this. He also understood that since the Kingdom of Serei found itself as a backer, he would definitely want to take the opportunity to develop his strength. However, even if the Kingdom of Serei acquired the region of Laria or annexed other small countries, his territory was still not very large, so it would not pose any threat to him. Of course, both sides knew very well that if this contract was signed, there would definitely be rumors that the Kingdom of Serei had become the watchdog of the Magic Empire in the future. However, both sides were pragmaticists, and a country that even the royal city was unwilling to dress up and waste its time in the royal city, naturally would not care too much about these facial matters. And everyone also knew that once the Magic Empire really won the final victory, these small countries would only be able to keep up with it. In fact, there was no difference between the two sides.

The signing of the contract was very smooth. After all, both sides knew the other party’s bottom line very well. Li Lin understood that although his magic empire was powerful, it was obviously inappropriate to just suppress others, so he just set the conditions within the acceptable range of the other party. King Serei also knew that no matter how many elite soldiers and generals he was, he could not be an opponent of the magic empire. Since he had shown the intention of cooperation and the other party did not make particularly embarrassing demands, he naturally would not act like he did.

In addition to military discussions, Li Lin also proposed a unique proposal. If King Serey agrees, he can send some mages to carry out renovation plans for the king capital. Although it is impossible to fully renovate the place, at least some soil and plant trees, Li Lin felt that he wanted to drink water again. As for Li Lin's suggestion, King Serey showed a warmer welcome than before. After all, although he could tolerate the harsh environment here, no one would mind that his residential area would be better.

As for issues such as trade and diplomacy, Li Lin did not discuss with the other party. After all, the war in the Magic Empire has not ended yet. It is too early to say these things. Besides, the Kingdom of Serei really has no specialties that can be exported to its own country, so these matters will be settled in the future. The first talks between the two sides ended in a friendly and warm atmosphere, and then, Li Lin made a small request to King Serei. He hoped to be able to move around the royal city and see the situation of this country.

Of course, at the beginning, King Serey wanted to order some soldiers to follow Li Lin as guards. However, Li Lin refused this suggestion. After all, with his strength, it is impossible to be threatened here. Even if everyone in the entire royal city goes together, he will definitely not be his opponent. He just hopes that he can go around with Yier and see the scenery in the city.

Since the other party said that, King Sere no longer insisted, and he sent a soul; Chuan Chan led the way from Li Lin to facilitate the monk's tour of the entire royal city.

Although it was a tour, Li Lin did not intend to wander around aimlessly. It should be said that his goal was determined from the beginning.

"Before I came here, I had heard some legends from your country, and one of them touched me very much.

He smiled and said to the soldiers responsible for being his tour guide.

"Am I lucky enough to visit that palace?"

Of course there is no problem with this.

When he heard this, what happened? The entourage immediately felt relieved, but in fact, after receiving this introductory mission, the first thing he considered was naturally there. Because the palace was built quite early. At the beginning of the founding of the country, the warrior even made great efforts to decorate the woman who had saved him, so the palace even looked more luxurious and beautiful than the palace. If it weren't for the fact that it was a place to commemorate the dead, the Kingdom of Sere might have held a welcoming ceremony there. Without any obstacles, Li Lin and Yiel were brought into the palace. According to the entourage's introduction, anyone could come here. It was also open to the public all day. Of course, people were busy on weekdays because there were fewer people coming here to commemorate, but during festivals and New Moon Day, it was crowded.

Perhaps he was worried about Li Lin's identity. When the two walked into the palace, there was no one inside and they were cleaned up very clean. Li Lin naturally understood that this was King Serei's arrangement. Therefore, he did not want to ask about it, but focused his attention on the palace in front of him.

According to Li Lin's observation, this is just a place similar to a memorial. On the stone walls on both sides, the life of the strange woman is carved, starting from the founding emperor who saved the country and until her final death. The exquisite and beautiful narrative carved from the whole mural makes people easily immersed in it. According to this follower, it was this woman who always supported the warrior that made him ignited his confidence and finally established the country. In other words, although the woman did not marry the king in the end, the people in this country worshiped her as the mother of the country.

I see

However, what made Li Lin even more curious was that when he saw the woman on the mural, he did have a familiar impression.

Finally, under the leadership of the follower, the two walked to the depths of the palace, and then they saw the statue of the woman.

This is a woman with long hair. Although the color cannot be seen from the carvings of the stone elephant, she reveals a very dark aura. Moreover, unlike ordinary statues, this woman is not wearing a robe or armor. On the contrary, she is wearing a strange-style leather armor, and several daggers and flying knives are placed in the belt around her waist. The expression on her face is smiling, full of inexplicable confidence and vitality. The cloak spreads out from behind her and covers half of her body. Although this dress is quite strange, the delicate facial features and beautiful eyes are still very tempting.

The moment she saw the statue, Li Lin raised her eyebrows calmly. Yiel, who was originally standing behind him, was even more direct. She widened her eyes in surprise, and then pointed her hand at the statue.

"She is not,"

However, Yieler did not finish his words, because Li Lin, who noticed something wrong, had already coughed heavily and interrupted Yieler's speech. The little maid seemed to have noticed the seriousness of the problem and hurriedly closed her mouth. Fortunately, the follower next to him was also startled. However, he didn't know why this happened, and he didn't seem to plan to care.

The tour ended soon, but in fact, after getting the information he needed to play, Li Lin no longer had the mood to visit. He quickly left the palace and returned to his floating boat. It was not until this time that he had the time and mood to start thinking about the problems in front of him. After all, this is what he needs to care about the most at present. Although Li Lin also thought that what the gods here should be, he just didn't expect that it was her.

"I really didn't expect it would be her. Master."

Yiel, who walked over with hot tea, couldn't help but sigh, which made Li Lin frown.

"Do you know her?"

"certainly."

Yiel put down the teacup and nodded affirmatively.

"Didn't she appear on your bed often before?"

I guess what I'm going to say there just now was a speech like "She is not the woman who often sleeps with her master". It would be great not to say it.

"I was a little surprised to be honest."

Li Lin smiled bitterly.

"Although this does seem to be her style, I really didn't expect that she would hide here." What's wrong with God. I really didn't expect that she would hide in this ghost place. It seems that even the God of Justice has loopholes."

Now, Li Lin finally understood why the hidden goddess needs her own help. If you want to know what happens next, please log in to Gancaoba, and there are more chapters. Support the author and support genuine reading!
