Chapter 598: What I Saw in the Capital (Part 1)
Brandon has been cheated by the inferior products of the goblins many times, and he has learned a lot from being cheated.
Except for cursing twice in the air, cursing the goblin workshop owner who produced the parachute packs for giving birth to children without anus, Brandon was not panicked.
There is no use panicking.
For professionals like Brandon, there are still ways to save themselves when falling from a high altitude.
Quickly open the combat auxiliary function of the illusion magic.
This will provide him with a prediction of the landing point of [Blink];
Carefully estimating the height from the ground and the speed of his own fall, at the moment before he was about to make close contact with the ground, Brandon decisively tore open the [Blink] scroll he took out from his arms.
The genuine one, not from the Yaan Magic Supplies Store.
[Blink] cannot erase the kinetic energy accumulated during the fall by passing through the astral rift, but Brandon can adjust the direction in this way.
The rift at the landing point was opened horizontally, allowing him to fly straight out at an angle almost parallel to the ground!
"Bang!"
A loud noise.
Brandon landed with a bang.
Most of the kinetic energy was consumed in the process of moving sideways in the air, which was equivalent to a fall of less than 10 meters.
This was completely acceptable for the physique of a level 3 warrior.
Fortunately, there were no dense buildings or forests outside Starosh City, otherwise, even if he didn't fall to death, he would be hit to death by those things.
"When I have money, I must catch all the goblins who produce inferior products, line them up, and beat them up one by one!"
After the other three landed quickly with the help of parachutes, Brandon said angrily.
Gale comforted him with a smile: "But even if you beat them to death, it won't solve the problem."
"Why don't we change our thinking and find a way to do a strict inspection process before using or buying, so that at least we can check the quality ourselves."
"Regarding this, I recommend that you go back and discuss it with Hugo. He has been buying things from Greenport."
"Don't think about things so far away. Hurry up and go to the city first."
"Didn't you talk about it for a long time on the way and finally come to the capital?"
Brandon was happy when he mentioned the capital.
The last time the airship stopped in the capital, he was looking forward to having a good walk in the capital. After all, this is the most prosperous place in the entire Reyak Kingdom.
I didn't expect that this goal could be achieved so soon.
And this trip to the capital is not just a simple shopping tour. They may also have the opportunity to witness their companions being rewarded by His Majesty the King!
...
The landing point of the airship parachute is not far from the outer city wall of Starosh.
Before entering the capital, I could already clearly feel the huge difference between here and the border city of Ceylon.
The most obvious point:
There are no slums, slums or other shacks outside Starosh.
This is a city without poor people.
Under the towering "reverse C-shaped" city walls are dozens of flat and wide roads, countless carriages, caravans, mercenaries, travelers, adventurers, clergy and civilians, and even on the flat sheltered plains, you can hear the bustling voices of people.
People gathered from all directions; and left the capital to go to all parts of the continent;
Most of them had smiles on their faces or relaxed expressions, and there were vendors selling snacks and gadgets on the roadside.
On weekdays, the capital has no entry inspection at all, and the city gates are open from day to night. This largest and most populous city on the continent of Prentis will warmly welcome every guest who comes here.
There is no need to worry about security issues either.
In terms of routine security, the King's Guard and the Royal City Sheriff took on the corresponding duties.
As for the cultists?
Not far southwest of Starosh is the sacred territory of the Glorious God Cult, where His Holiness the Pope, the Archbishop and the Cardinals, the Supervisory Priests, and the Crusaders are stationed.
The conspiracies planned by the cultists are all things that cannot be seen in the light and cannot withstand investigation.
How crazy must a guy be to dare to make trouble under the nose of the "True Glorious God Cult"?
It's not that there are no such lunatics, but they often just arrived in the capital not long ago, and even the altar for making trouble is not ready, and the priests and Crusaders of the Glorious God Cult have come to their door to offer warmth.
Even if they want to make some big news, they don't have the strength.
This place is different from Green Port and Ceylon Territory, which are far away from the mountains. Those places can easily become the one-man show of the Glorious Bishop. Once the bishop has problems, the whole place may collapse.
The headquarters of the Glorious God Cult is different.
Even if the archbishop or the pope has problems, there is still a complete college of cardinals and a supervisory clergy organization that has been operating, not to mention the royal power that is watching every move of the Glorious God Church.
If anyone really has a problem, they will be discovered and dealt with immediately.
Of course.
As for the Glorious God Church, whether they have fulfilled their duties and responsibilities, Gale and his team are now reserved.
The past is the past, and the present is the present.
At least during this period of time, the state of the Glorious God Church in front of them is really... unbearable to watch.
The bishops were derelict in their duties, betrayed their faith, were collectively corrupt, and were passive. Moreover, Bron Freeman also mentioned that when he just regained consciousness, he took the opportunity to go to the capital to ask for help from the Glorious God Cult, but he was temporarily detained as a rumor spreader.
This forced Gale and others to be cautious.
They would not completely believe everything about the Glorious God Cult now.
Seeing is believing, hearing is not necessarily true.
…
The queue to enter Starosh City was very long, but fortunately the speed of advancement was not slow.
This orderly environment is not seen in other places in the Kingdom of Reyak.
As the team moved forward, Reina said with a little emotion: "I haven't been to the capital for many years. I didn't expect that basically nothing has changed here!"
"The city walls, statues, and caravans are exactly the same as before!"
When Reina went to Green Port with her father as a child, they took the sea route. They needed to arrive at Starosh first and board the ship at the pier on the west coast of the city, so they had the experience of coming to the capital once.
Brandon poked Gail beside him with interest and teased:
"Are you nervous?"
"If nothing unexpected happens, you should go to meet Miranda's parents in the next few days. Are you ready?"
"What if they don't want Miranda to stay with you?"
Gail rolled her eyes:
"She has already written to her parents, and they have no objection!"
"Miranda sent me a message last night through the messenger, saying that they will meet the king the day after tomorrow morning, and asked me to visit her parents in advance, so that I can take them to the Avenue of Glory to watch the ceremony."
