Holy Spirit Calendar 2690, September 5th.
The last day of the existence of Mulong Duchy. After the national succession ceremony tomorrow, the government will officially revert to a kingdom, with the rightful heir Su Yizhana serving as Monarch.
And located within the Royal Garden behind the palace in the Royal Capital.
The Black Sail crew, along with the Seventh Amendment, and foreign guests participating in the resistance action, have been invited here to enjoy the scenery.
This country is somewhat like a milk tea topped with cream, with the upper layer and the lower layer being completely different tastes.
Mulong's ancestors were also prosperous, sitting on Drifting City, boosting economic flow when the slave system had not yet been abolished. "Heaven Rewards Diligence" and "No Cilantro" were recycled through barter, making it an extremely strong nation at the time.
Though it is now in decline, the heritage left behind, along with the Royal Garden that costs tens of thousands every year for maintenance, is grand and vast. Walking through it would take nearly half a day.
The long corridor's intricate carvings and jade balustrades wind and twist, flanked by peculiar rocks and lush flowers blooming, with streams flowing gently, and exotic animals strolling leisurely.
On the benches inside the viewing pavilion.
"Seeing it will send you to Hell."
Morison munches on fruit from the handmaiden, surveying the Royal Garden's landscape.
"Can't forget the summer of 2685 at Heaven Port."
Shadi's gaze holds some nostalgia, now that the railway matter is settled, it's been a long time since he felt so peaceful, his thoughts returning to the past.
"I wasn't on the island then."
Yakai Chiyoko gazes at Shadi dreamily.
Tomorrow is the national succession ceremony, and the Black Sail crew will also be participants.
Unlike those brutes from Uborio, the civil servant government in the Royal Capital behaves with decorum; they spent a long time primping the crew to avoid embarrassing themselves before the Monarch and finally shed the terrible vibe of East Sea Mountain Cannon.
Shadi's white hair is tied up, wearing traditional white robes of Mulong, and the others are also dressed similarly.
"Cannot forget the tattoo."
Rein sees Archer goofily instructing gardeners on horticulture, what a fool, those are gardeners strictly selected by the Nine Tribes, managing them senselessly.
Shadi has transitioned from a youthful spirit to being a mature figure, looking civilized, nobody knowing he was previously a fool.
Perhaps to fill this gap, a person even more foolish than Shadi in his dark history emerges, Geliheng in full appearance.
Archer seems drunk, directly vomiting into the freshly trimmed flowerbed.
Rein's expression looks like he has bitten a lemon, calling it, it must include a Witch Demon King.
Magnus survived; with those injuries, he would die for sure with the bumpiness of horseback, but thankfully there was a train, so he is recuperating in the palace.
Asked what his plans are, Magnus says his wishes have been fulfilled, nowhere to go, willing to travel with Archer across the vast world.
He wants to search for some answer, but the biggest difficulty now is, he doesn't even know the question, just desires to explore some ultimate. Discover more novels at n0velfire.net
"The summer of 2685, sounds awesome, what exactly happened?"
Aside from Swan, Morison was the last to board the ship, not quite understanding 2685.
"Liszt and the mad woman hooked up, seemed normal at first, but later it got intense. You didn't see how Liszt looked back then, asking if he snagged 160 Golden Dragons. He said he was too embarrassed to ask, instead got reeled in by the mad woman. Emperor Li and Emperor Dreya PUA-ed each other to the edge of the universe, even the Dao was obliterated."
Rein was impressed, but as of today, 160 Golden Dragons are already not a big deal. He sees the scene by the pond and laughs, "What the hell Royal Garden, bringing ducks to raise."
The accompanying Royal Court civil servants all had tactical black faces but had no choice; they couldn't spoil Rein's enjoyment, and they had to serve these guests well, only offering apologetic smiles to Rein.
Fen's face couldn't hold it; Rein is truly the refined mountain cannon among them, explained: "Strictly speaking, that's called 'Suo Yuhe', not ducks, they are brought from the Far East, with very stringent ecological requirements. Amazingly, they have formed a population here. The maintenance costs every year here must be astronomical."
"General Fen really gets it."
Rein continues to act like driving ducks, making quacking sounds, playing with those cranes.
Garscek has been turned from Ferrari into a wheelchair, now he can only walk on legs.
"After here ends, where are you looking to expand next."
The 2.2-meter big car frame makes those five-footed rough pirates around look like children.
"It's not something I can decide. From my personal desire, the Narrow Sea should be the point of entry, but it must be based on strategies formulated by the board together."
Fen and Garscek clashed because now this Black Dragon is the largest shareholder of the company, but in reality, it is controlled by the couple, Liszt.
Radio communication is already quite mature; although there's a few minutes delay in return, it can connect with the headquarters at Heaven Port.
In response to the overwhelming foreign investment influx, Black Sail Trading Company has made a series of changes, now its financial resources, both A and B shares, are no longer manageable.
Dreya is a woman of considerable skills, now there are too many wanting to take a piece of the East Sea pie, similar to Kawa Zargon and others who turned official halfway cannot be shortchanged.
But now Black Sail founding shares are too valuable. Those heroes who came to the top during the Doringger affair have already won profusely.
In remote meetings, drafts of "East Sea International" have been agreed upon, a larger framework must be established, for money to be counted, now counting money is a trouble, the name is also tentative, with primary business areas in real estate, energy, and manufacturing industry, controlled by Black Sail Trading Company.
