"Here, um, I accidentally shot your horse, sorry, my name is Jerry, what's your name?"
The armored truck arrived outside the city of Rose. Jerry got out of the car and said to the knight who was still in a dazed state of thinking in the car.
"Ah, my name is Korman."
Korman reacted and said to Jerry.
Then he quickly called out again: "Your Highness, is she alright!"
He accidentally forgot about Caroline along the way.
"I'm fine..."
Caroline was riding a horse beside her, said.
"I'll help you dismount."
Korman quickly helped Caroline off the horse.
After riding a horse for a day, not only Caroline legs were weak, but even the war horse was panting, and fell to the ground with two front hooves with a thump, which was too exhausting.
"Come with me, I will take you to arrange your accommodation first, and then go to see His Majesty the King."
Jerry took off the iron mask under his helmet and said to the two.
"Um."
Korman supported Caroline and nodded.
At the gate of the city, some soldiers guarding the city and the people passing by looked at these two men in full body armor very curiously.
Now there are no people wearing full body armor in Rose. Whether it is fighting or anything, it will affect mobility.
Korman stepped on the concrete road on the ground, with novelty in his eyes: "It's such a smooth road, even the capital of West doesn't have this kind of road."
Most cities are paved with stones, which are also hard, but uneven, and it is impossible for them to be as smooth as cement roads.
Now that Korman was sitting in the car, he couldn't see the road. Now that he got out of the car, he discovered the magic of the concrete road.
It is extremely flat and hard, without even a single gap, which makes Caroline and Korman feel very amazing.
And looking around, such a road winds for several miles, and there is no end in sight.
"Let's go into the city and take you to arrange it."
Jerry and several soldiers led Korman and Caroline to the city.
It was just afternoon, and the sun was still shining high in the sky.
"BBQ, Teppanyaki BBQ!"
Korman and Caroline followed Jerry through the street. Both of them stared at the peddler named Selling, and asked about the strange fragrance. They felt that their saliva was about to flow down.
But none of them spoke, one was a noble princess, the other was a knight, both of the noble class, and now that they were guests, it was difficult to speak.
Although they were all starving to death, they still maintained a certain degree of politeness and did not take the initiative to speak.
So they can only look for other things that catch their eyes.
There is no rubbish on the street, no feces on the edge of the road, and no excrement in the corners. When I move my nose lightly, I can't smell a bad smell, and I can even smell a strange fragrance.
This extremely clean city can also reflect the strength of the Rose Kingdom, Caroline thought in her heart, this is probably only the king of the Gustav Alliance Empire can compare with it.
Damn, I can smell that barbecue aroma again!
The two held on and followed Jerry through one street after another.
"Your Highness, look, is that an electric light?"
Korman pointed to the light bulbs and other things hanging all over the street, and said in surprise.
He was paying attention to those electric lights along the way, but now the sky was bright, and the electric lights were not on, so he couldn't help asking until now.
"Really, really, the lamp."
Caroline looked in disbelief at the electric lights hanging all over the street.
She bought this kind of electric light last month, and it was very expensive. One was sold for 900 gold coins, and there were supporting battery power and other items.
This kind of thing has just appeared. In the former West Kingdom, only the nobles could have it. I didn't expect that it can be seen everywhere in Rose now!
And seeing that the people were not surprised at all, they were obviously used to it!
Especially Caroline, she followed her father to the city of Rose a few years ago.
At that time, Rose City was no different from other cities ruled by nobles. Although it was the capital, the streets were dirty, chaotic, and poor.
But now Rose City seems to have an earth-shaking difference from before.
Everyone is happy and prosperous, the streets are extremely clean, and even electric lights, which can be compared to magical creations, hang all over the streets and can be seen everywhere!
It even made Caroline wonder if she had arrived in the Central Territory, the capital of the Central Magic Empire, or a certain big city!
"Construction is underway ahead, let's go around."
At this time Jerry turned to them and said.
"construction?"
Caroline looked over there curiously, and this one glance made her freeze.
I saw that the entire street ahead was under construction.
A dozen or so buildings with a height of more than ten floors already had their frames and prototypes. Korman and Caroline were outside the construction site dumbfounded. That is shock.
They kept looking up, looking at the street in front of them being built, a tall building they had never seen in their life.
In this era, only castles are five or six meters high, seven or eight meters high.
But this kind of castle can only be built by nobles, and most of them are only four or five meters high. Only kings and the like can build castles with a height of seven or eight meters.
But now looking at the framework of buildings being built in the entire street, there is no building less than 20 meters high!
The lowest buildings are also four or five-story buildings, and there are several buildings with about ten floors and a height of 40 to 50 meters.
The tallest building has 20 floors, and its height is more than 70 meters!
In modern times, buildings with a height of 70 meters can be seen everywhere, but in this era when the largest mortal castle can't exceed 20 meters in height, this is an incomparably huge feat!
And the 20-storey building is also the administrative building of the Rose Kingdom that Nerón is building.
It is the main building of the capital Rose City.
Caroline, who came to Rose City a few years ago, naturally knows how much Rose City has changed. It can be said that it is the difference between heaven and hell.
Caroline has seen Nerón since she was a child, but she never knew that Nerón is so capable as a king.
At the same time, this also made Caroline very curious about what Nerón is like now, and a feeling from a distant childhood re-emerged in Caroline heart.
