Chapter 127 Lake Ega

At the other end of the street, James happened to be standing guard.

After seeing Riya, he took a few steps forward and joked: "Why do you feel that you are not in a good mood?"

"Will it?" Ria bypassed James and walked toward the outer perimeter. He turned back thoughtfully midway, and the church bells on the hour also echoed heavily in his ears.

"when--"

"when--"

"when--"

"..."

The atmosphere of the entire Zoramu Street was still extremely depressing, with the dark sky, damaged doors, cracked roads, and the "person" in the middle of the road watching Riya go away.

It had a bloody hole on its head, its body was wet, its face was empty, and there was a rotten umbilical cord hanging on its belly, and the end was hung around its neck to prevent it from tripping.

It was the baby, if it should be called a baby at all.

The "baby" was waving goodbye to Ria and mumbling something, but no one heard it clearly.

"The bad taste of white masks."

James was disdainful: "Do you want me to solve it?"

"Need not."

Riya shook her head: "The biggest fear when performing is that the audience won't buy it, and the biggest fear when telling a joke is the lack of reaction from the audience."

"It's a great honor for me to have someone say goodbye to me."

As they spoke, they ignored the strange baby and drifted away. The church bells stopped reverberating, and the streets returned to silence again.

The Secret Keeper branch they were going to was still a long way from here, and they even had to pass through a huge lake in the middle, so Riya and James chose to take transportation.

The machinery industry here is very developed, and dedicated vehicle lanes can be seen everywhere in the city. Steam cars shuttle in those asphalt lanes, white steam surrounds them, and they are dragged for a short distance.

Riya observed these cars with interest. They were old in style, but they could already drive stably. They had hollow wheels on the left and right sides, and a long pipe for exhausting gas was installed at the back.

The steam car uses parts from two real kettles to heat liquefied petroleum gas, which heats the boiler and distilled water to produce pressurized steam.

When distilled water is pumped into the boiler at a rate of fifty liters per minute, the steam is heated to 200 degrees Celsius and then directed into the car turbine at twice the speed of sound. The thrust generated by the turbine can increase the speed of the car from zero to Over [-] miles per hour——

At that time, white condensed steam will be sprayed out from the rear of the car, like an "angry" kettle, making a "whining" sound.

Even the same city will be divided into rich and poor. Compared with what Riya sees now, the development of Zolamu Street can be said to be lagging behind.

As for Wensi Town... the development of Wensi Town seems to be a product of hundreds of years ago.

Adeline's buildings are in the Georgian style. Their buildings are tall, well-proportioned, exquisite and elegant in appearance, the square windows are arranged rigorously and orderly, and the doors are so symmetrical that it is almost impossible for obsessive-compulsive disorder to find fault.

Riya saw a pure golden statue, which was a man wearing a war robe and a dense beard. He wore a crown on his head, pointed his sword at the ground in his hand, and raised a sun god statue to the sky in his other hand.

"Are you watching Wilton I?"

James saw Riya staring at the golden statue, and also turned his gaze to the other end. At this time, a drizzle began to fall in the sky, washing away the dust on the golden statue, making its color more stable. "That is the ancestor of the current king of Endles, Leven Wilton. It is said that he single-handedly saved Endles from a critical moment, and was then regarded as the king - Emperor Wilton, but he ordered Not too long, I died inexplicably less than a year after taking office."

"To commemorate him, people built golden statues of the old king in various cities. The current king is Wilton IV. If you want to say, he is completely inferior to the old king. The current king is just a puppet of the church."

James slumped backwards, and the car made an overwhelming sound: "The power of the Pope is a bit too great. The king's appointment and dismissal power is in their hands. I think this country will be destroyed sooner or later without the Order Society and the Keeper."

"Could it be that the establishment of the secret keeper and order is approved by them?"

"What do you think? Our existence can restrain the church and at the same time protect the royal family's insatiable greed. Although no one wants to do this, I believe that the leader always has a reason for doing this."

While chatting like this, Riya withdrew his gaze. What he was curious about was whether the golden statue was made of pure gold. If such a large object was made of gold, then how huge the financial resources of the royal family must be.

Listening along the way, Riya felt that the king's position was now in jeopardy. If they wanted to stabilize their rights and interests, the best choice was to find ways to weaken the nobles, weaken the church, the Keeper of Secrets, and the Order Association.

But this may be a bit difficult for the poor king, and Riya can only hope that the other party is well.

Then there is no more then.

"Ugh——"

The steam car still made a not-so-pleasant sound. It traveled along the winding road. After an unknown amount of time, it successfully led Ria and James to the vicinity of Lake Ada.

James pointed at the huge lake that was almost endless as far as the eye could see. In the center of the lake was a huge bridge across the lake. There were countless ships sailing on the lake. From time to time, water birds were hovering in the sky. Suddenly, they dived into the lake and grabbed a fish that was fluttering wildly. of fish come ashore.

This, he said, was Lake Ega.

"As long as we cross this lake, we will soon reach the area of ​​the secret keeper."

"How big is this lake?"

"Probably several thousand square kilometers."

Ria walked to the lake and felt the cool breeze blowing. The color of the lake was black and blue. It must be quite deep. If there were any extraordinary creatures down there, it would be quite easy to attack people.

It's really no wonder that Ria thinks too much. He has seen too many such things and cannot relax in the face of any trouble.

"What do you think will be at the bottom of the lake?"

"Hmm... I think it must be a dead body. After all, no one has drowned in any lake."

James pointed disapprovingly at the crowd of people playing with swimming rings by the lake: "Take the group of tourists who can't be persuaded as an example. They fill Lake Ega with at least [-] sacrifices every year, but even so, they can't. Block their enthusiasm for entertainment."

"Why, you also want to go to the lake to join them in the fun?"

James was secretly wary of Riya actually running to the lake, but Riya said that she would not do such a stupid thing.

He turned back and asked James how he was going to cross the lake later.

"On the bridge or by boat?"

"Which mode of transportation cannot pass, Kercha, you are too nervous. You are just passing through a lake, and there will not be any huge supernatural creature suddenly coming out and rolling the transportation vehicle into the bottom of the lake."
