Chapter 416: Meeting an old friend in the Empress Palace! Trembling
Translator: 549690339
How should the Western world and the eastern world be divided?
It was a very complicated topic.
First of all, the Great Yan Dynasty was definitely the eastern world. The Western Region of the Great Yan Dynasty was also known as the Western regions, but they were actually the central World.
The central continent was also incomparably large, even larger than one could imagine.
This planet was also round, and by right, they had to head west to reach the Western world.
However, no one could do it. To the West of the Great Yan Dynasty were the kingdoms of the Western Region, and further west was the desert.
This desert was not an exaggeration. It was definitely a forbidden zone for life.
How big was this desert?
He didn’t know, and it was impossible for anyone to know.
This was because no matter who it was, even if they were Grandmaster experts. No matter how many people there were, no matter how much water they brought into the desert, they could not pass through.
The various kingdoms of the Western Region, and even the Great Yan Dynasty, had sent teams of adventurers deep into the desert. They wanted to know where they would end up after crossing the desert.
In the end, they all failed.
The desert was boundless to the South, North, and West.
Entering the desert from any direction and heading in any direction could exceed ten thousand miles.
That was why it was called the ten thousand miles desert. It was only because humans had already discovered that any direction of it was more than ten thousand miles.
In fact, it was far more than 10000 miles. The area of this desert was likely to exceed 30 million square kilometers, or even larger.
When Shen lang found out about this, he was completely shocked.
The Earth’s Middle East and North Africa covered a total of 23 million square kilometers. Although most of it was desert areas, there was no lack of oases, and it was still possible to survive. Otherwise, there would not have been so many countries since ancient times, and even superpowers like the Persian Empire and the Babylonian Empire had been born.
The vast desert of this world was definitely not suitable for any life form to live in.
In the official records of the Empire of Great Yan, it was called the vast desert in a very neutral tone. However, in the records of many countries, it was called the devil prison desert by many people.
The devil prison desert and the great Devil’s Triangle were known as the forbidden zones of this world.
Therefore, this vast desert completely separated the East from the West. The only passage was the ocean, which was more than 10000 kilometers long.
Then where should the pure Western world be?
Strictly speaking, it should be the west side of the desert. It belonged to the same continent as the great Yan Empire, but they were very far apart. In a straight line, the distance was more than thirty thousand miles, and the desert in between was impassable.
The land that Shen lang was on was the land where Jade Gold City and the witch Empire were. Strictly speaking, it should be called the new land or the Weida land.
The new continent’s surface area exceeded 20 to 30 million square kilometers, which was about the size of North America.
To a certain extent, this new continent could not be completely called the Western world.
However, they were conquered by the xilun dynasty, so they became the Western world.
About seven hundred years ago, the Emperor of xilun led tens of thousands of people from the northernmost continent to the South. In less than ten years, he swept through the entire new continent and established the powerful xilun dynasty.
Now, a few hundred years had passed, and the tens of thousands of people led by the xilun Emperor had multiplied into tens of millions.
Although it was already divided, the white people of the xilun dynasty were still the rulers of the continent, ruling over more than 100 ethnic groups.
During his time at sea, Shen lang had read a lot of books. The history of the witch Empire was too short, so there was not much related content.
However, there were countless books about the history of the xilun dynasty, especially the xilun Emperor.
In short, he was a powerful man whose strength and charm were no less than that of Emperor Jiang Li.
Shen lang could not understand how this powerful man managed to sweep across 20 million square kilometers of land with his Army of 20000 to 30000 soldiers in the era of cold weapons.
Of course, Shen lang had also heard many rumors about Queen Medusa from Black Widow Hill.
She was also a powerful person. In less than four years, she had swept through four million square kilometers and established the witch Empire in the South of xilun dynasty.
Therefore, Shen lang would often question if Queen Medusa was really Qiu Yao ‘er.
The Chou Yao ‘er that he knew might be very strong, but she was not that heaven-defying.
........................
Shen lang did not convince Hill to follow him to the capital of the Witch Queen.
The position of the Vida tribesmen on the Western continent was very complicated. The xilun dynasty had ruled this land for a long time, more than a few hundred years.
Moreover, before the arrival of the xilun dynasty, this continent had been in constant war. There were countless Wars between various tribes.
In the past few hundred years, many of the dimensional race had already pledged their loyalty to the xilun dynasty. Some of them had even considered themselves a member of the xilun dynasty.
Duke dybosse’s Jadewave province was in the South of the xilun dynasty. The population there was opposed to each other, and the class division was quite severe. This was because it was a post-immigrant region.
In the northern part of the New World, the white people of the Weida race and xilun dynasty had already integrated quite well.
For example, the Qing Dynasty was also considered to be a foreign race that had entered the Central Plains. Its rule in the North was far more stable than that in the South, so most of the subsequent revolutionary uprisings also broke out in the South.
It was the same for the xilun dynasty. Its core was in the North, and the southern coastal area was relatively weak.
Following the destruction of the second xilun Empire, several forces of the xilun royal family fought for the throne, causing the entire great xilun dynasty to be torn apart.
This allowed Queen Medusa to take advantage of the situation and sweep through the entire South, establishing the witch Empire.
In the southern region of xilun dynasty, many Vedas regarded the xilun dynasty as the Orthodox lineage and the witch Empire as an invader.
However, there were also some people of vida who treated xilun dynasty and the witch Empire as intruders. They were completely neutral and kept their distance.
The sea merchants, with Hill as their representative, and many other Pirates, all had this attitude.
Only those who hated the xilun dynasty to the core would be loyal to the witch Empire.
Black Widow Hill looked at Shen Lang’s face. She really loved this man, but it was all because of the attraction between the opposite sex.
She even knew that she would never meet a second man who she loved so much in her life, but to make her give up everything for this man? To pledge loyalty to the witch Empire together? I’m afraid it won’t be easy.
The relationship between her and Shen lang was like the golden wind and jade dew. It was much stronger than the human world.
The feelings between a man and a woman were very intense at the beginning. They loved each other so much that they were on the verge of dying. However, after a long time of settling down, they would become like you and me, you and me, unable to part.
Black Widow Hill could not leave everything behind to follow Shen lang, but she was also worried about Shen lang going to the capital of the demon Queen alone.
“I’ll send you there!” “Maybe we should say goodbye, but not now!” Hill said.
..................
Next, Hill went to bribe an officer of the XI Lun Empire coalition Army in exchange for two soldier tags.
After changing into the military uniform of the XI Lun Empire, she and Shen lang became the scouts of the XI Lun Empire.
After leaving the port, the two of them rode through Siva city.
The city was extremely huge, far larger than Jade Gold City. When Shen lang passed by the city, he felt that it was a huge monster.
the Siva family used to be a noble family in the xilun Empire, but because they participated in the rebellion, they were exiled to the southeast sea. They are also known as the exiled Siva family. Hill introduced the city’s history along the way.
“Just like the Russo family, the Siva family relied on sea trade to grow and become the richest city. During the time of the second Empire of xilun, the Siva family had to bear a terrifying amount of taxes every year. At least three generations of Duke Siva died at the hands of the Empire. So, when Queen Medusa swept through the entire southern part of the continent, Duke Siva chose to pledge his loyalty.”
just like that, Siva city became the largest city in the witch Empire, and Siva city was the second largest city in the witch Empire.
“Has Duke Siva betrayed the witch Empire again?” Shen lang asked.
On the city wall, Shen lang not only saw the flag of the third xilun Empire, but also the flag of the Siva family.
Hill said, ” this battle actually started a few months ago. Although Duke dybosse is one of the main forces of the Allied forces, she started her Army relatively late. This is because most of her Army is made up of slaves. Duke Shiva is one of the more loyal ones to the witch Empire. He has been resisting the XI Lun Empire coalition for more than two months and has been asking Queen Medusa for help, but there has been no news of him. He only surrendered when he was left with no other choice.”
This was strange. Siva city was the second largest city in the witch Empire, and it was the gateway to the southeast. Queen Medusa should have sent troops to help no matter what. Why did she let Siva city fall?
When Shen lang passed through siwa city, he saw countless soldiers of the XI Lun Empire’s Alliance Army.
There were all kinds of troops, including the Empire’s regular army, the private army of various families, mercenary troops, slave troops, and so on.
However, Shen lang did not see the flag of Duke dybosse.
“Duke dybosse’s Army isn’t here. She’s in Dolan city, which is a thousand miles away. That’s the southern gate of the witch Empire.” she’s the commander of the Allied South Army, ” Hill said. the ones attacking Siva city are the East Army. The commander is Duke Russell.
“Lu suo, Luo su?” Shen lang asked.
yes, ” Hill said. they used to be from the same family. During the second Empire of xilun, the two sides supported different kings and had differences, so they split into two families. One of them changed their surname to Russell.
“What about this Duke Russell?” Shen lang asked.
very, very powerful, ” Hill said. when the second Empire of sillon was established, his ancestor failed to pick a side and was exiled to the southeast. He was just a small count. For a long time, the Russell family was the vassals of Duke Siva. However, in less than fifteen years, Duke Russell expanded his family’s territory tenfold and gained two provinces. He became one of the major powers of the xilun dynasty in the East, and he was promoted from count to Duke.”
“Siva city was taken down by this Duke Russell?” Shen lang asked.
it’s not just Siva city, ” Hill said. the four provinces in the southeast of the witch Empire were all conquered by Duke Russell. You’ve seen how sturdy Siva is, but Duke Russell used an Army of less than 100000 to defeat Duke Siva and force him to surrender.”
“How many people are there in Duke Russell’s East troops?” Shen lang asked.
“Two hundred and fifty thousand,” Hill said.
Shen lang was shocked. He was indeed a super expert. When su Nan was at his peak, the Army he led did not exceed 100000 people.
Zhong ‘e was the No. 1 warlord in Vietnam, and even his Army didn’t exceed 120000.
Currently, the Alliance Army of the third xilun Empire was divided into four branches, East, West, South, and North. They were attacking from four directions.
Basically, they were unstoppable in every direction.
Duke Russell had made the most progress. He had already taken one-fifth of the land of the witch Empire and was preparing to March into the capital of the witch Empire.
Hill’s fleet clearly belonged to Duke dypos, so why was he sent to Siva city and given food and supplies to Duke Russell?
This was naturally Duke dybosse’s political signal.
The Russo family and the Russell family used to be one family. Now that the Third Empire of xilun was about to be established, the two families could only have more power in the new empire if they joined forces.
Therefore, this Duke dybosse was as outstanding as Shen lang had imagined.
..................
After more than two hours, Shen lang and Hill finally rode through the huge Siva city and headed towards the witch Empress ‘capital along the wide and neat main road.
The capital of the witch Empress was about 400 miles away from Siva city. It was called the Queen’s city.
That’s right, it was originally called Queen City, not because of Queen Medusa. It had been called this name more than a hundred years ago. During the period of the second Empire of xilun, there was a dispute among the royal family, and an Empress appeared. She was greatly rejected by the imperial capital, so she moved the capital in anger and built the Queen’s city in the South.
After a few decades of management, this Queen City had become the largest city in the South of the xilun dynasty.
Of course, after the death of the Empress, her son moved back to the old imperial capital, so the Queen’s city became the central city of the South of the xilun dynasty.
Queen Medusa swept across the entire South of xilun dynasty and established the witch Empire. It would definitely be in this Queen City.
“My love, you are an Easterner. Do you want to build an empire on this continent?” Hill asked.
Shen lang thought for a while and shook his head. “I won’t,”
To be honest, he was not interested in this new world.
The thing he wanted to do most now was to have an Army, a team of alchemists, then occupy the saltpeter Island and develop a powerful artillery fleet.
After that, he would return to the great Yan Empire in an awe-inspiring manner and take revenge.
To this continent, he was a foreign race and had no interest in ruling this land.
He didn’t care about the third xilun Empire at all.
He was the son of Jiang Li and was known as the ruler of the eastern world, but he was still not interested in ruling the world.
Suddenly, Shen lang asked,”beautiful hill, why did the Emperor of Xi Lun lead his people to the South?” Why did you leave the northernmost continent?”
the northernmost continent is too far away from here, ” Hill said. it’s thousands of miles away from the new continent, so there’s no news from there at all. Furthermore, the sea in the North had been frozen all year round and could not be crossed. However, there’s a rumor that ...”
“Dear, tell me,” Shen lang said.
that’s a very ridiculous rumor, ” Hill said. it’s completely nonsense from the Pirates.
Shen lang said, ” ridiculous. Is it as ridiculous as your rumors? ” You’re the purest woman in the world, but you’re calling them evil black widows.”
“My dear, don’t provoke me at this time.” they said that the Emperor of xilun foresaw that the northernmost continent would be shrouded in eternal darkness, ” Hill said. so, he had to find a new home immediately. But at that time, many people didn’t care about what he said, and only a few hundred thousand people followed him across the sea to the South. Because that Sea area was very dangerous, when they crossed the sea and entered the New World, there were less than thirty thousand people.”
Shen lang said,”what’s going on in the northernmost continent?” Have you fallen into eternal darkness?”
I don’t know, ” Hill said. because the waters here have been completely frozen. No ship can pass through. Moreover, the further north one went, the colder it became. No one could pass through it. What was the situation in the northernmost continent? No one knows.”
“Dear, have you heard of white jade City?” Shen lang squinted his eyes.
When Shen lang asked this, he felt that he was being ridiculous.
White jade City was a supreme power in the eastern world. It was tens of thousands of miles away from here. How could Hill have heard of it?
“White jade city’s Pi Xiu.”
Hill used a special tone and imitated it a little clumsily. Then he asked in a surprised tone, ” it’s a white boat. Even if it’s a hot summer day, does it snow wherever it goes? ”
F * ck? Shen lang was completely shocked. They were tens of thousands of miles away, and Hill knew about it?
“Have you seen that White Ship?” Shen lang asked.
no, ” Hill said. but my father saw it when he was a pirate, and he kept saying that it was white jade City. I always thought that he was hallucinating when he was drunk. He told many people about this, but they all thought that he was bragging. In fact, I also thought that he was bragging. How could it snow in summer? Pirates love to brag, so I was shocked when you said those words.”
Shen lang said, ” my dear, your father is not bragging. He might have really seen it. When did that happen? ”
“About twenty years ago,” Hill said.
Shen lang felt like his brain was about to explode. He did not want to care about the Western world.
But this was a bit too much information.
It was said that the northernmost continent was shrouded in darkness. The great emperor of xilun went south to rule the new continent and established the xilun dynasty.
A ship from white jade City had been to this area more than 20 years ago.
Now, the sea north of the new continent had been completely frozen, and the northernmost continent was isolated from the world.
In the great Devil’s Triangle in the great desert of the northernmost continent.
Then there were three forbidden areas in this world?
Ten thousand miles of ice and a thousand miles of snow. This seemed to be related to white jade City.
Shen lang had met five of the six Supreme powers.
He had only met white jade City twice, but had never seen them in person.
Shen lang shook his head hard. No more, no more.
There was only one thing in front of him now. He had to enter the capital of the demonic woman Empire and see if Queen Medusa was Qiu Yao ‘er.
I want an Army, I want cannons.
..................
Duke Russell’s Army was everywhere along the way, and they were all very elite.
When he was 200 miles away from the capital of the witch Empress, Shen lang was stopped by a Centurion.
After checking their tags, the centurion said, ” thank you for your hard work. This is our last outpost. You can’t go any further. If you go any further, you’ll be in the territory of the witch Empire. Your safety can’t be guaranteed.
Was the witch Empire already in such a miserable state?
Their sphere of influence was only two hundred miles away from the capital. Had the rest of the city fallen?
This situation was similar to the time when the Taiping country occupied su (Zhou) city, leaving only the capital Tianjing.
we’re on a secret mission, ” Hill said. we need to enter Queen’s city.
“Take off your helmets,” the centurion said.
Hill and Shen lang took off their helmets, revealing two beautiful faces. One of them had long golden hair.
The centurion’s eyes lit up, and he said,”I understand, but you guys might need to change your clothes next.”
Then, the centurion let them pass.
..................
Shen lang and Hill continued walking.
As expected, they no longer saw Duke Russell’s Army. Only a few Scouts would occasionally pass by.
Shen lang and Hill had changed their clothes. They were no longer wearing the military uniform of the XI Lun Empire. Instead, they had changed into black cloaks.
The road ahead seemed to be a no man’s land.
There were clearly many towns on both sides, with beautiful scenery and lush trees, but not a single person could be seen. All the people had fled.
Duke Russell’s Army had yet to occupy this place, but the Army of the witch Empire seemed to have completely retreated into the city.
They walked another hundred miles.
“My dear, follow me.” Hill said.
Then, she led Shen lang to the top of a mountain.
“That’s Queen City.” Hill pointed.
However, it was completely covered in smoke and couldn’t be seen clearly.
“Just you wait, I’ll show you the most romantic city in the world.” Hill said.
Then, the two of them waited quietly.
Not long after, the clouds and mist dispersed.
The Queen’s city appeared in front of Shen lang, and she was stunned.
I, f * ck!
How could there be such a beautiful city in this world?
What kind of aesthetic sense did the Queen of the second xilun Empire, who built this city, have?
Words were too weak to describe the beauty of the city.
No wonder it was called the Queen’s city. If the city had genders, it would definitely be female.
This was a Red City, slightly darker than pink and lighter than Vermilion. When the sun shone from different angles, it could even reveal purple.
In such a huge city, the city walls were red, the roads were red, and the houses were red.
The city also had double walls. The outer wall was about 15 meters high, the inner wall was 12 meters high, and the inner and outer walls were 20 meters apart.
There were also such large-scale double-layered walls in the history of Earth, such as Constantinople.
Jade City was built against a mountain, while the Queen’s city was flat. Only the palace was high up, built on a mountain that was hundreds of meters high.
It was as if a layer of the peak had been completely removed to build a Palace.
The mountains that were a few hundred meters tall, at least facing Shen Lang’s side, were all straight and steep cliffs. It looked as if the palace was on top of a cliff. It was a miracle in architecture.
However, Hill told Shen lang that the back of the mountain was rather flat. When the palace was built, the materials were transported from the back.
The whole city was red, but the cliff that was hundreds of meters high was white, so was the palace.
It was as if all the red was to set off the snow-white Palace.
It was too dreamy and beautiful.
Jade City was already beautiful enough, but the Queen’s city was even more beautiful, especially the palace on the top of the cliff. It was like a city in the sky.
we, the people of vida, have very complicated feelings towards the xilun people, ” Hill said. we hate them because they are outsiders who have ruled the continent. But we also worship them. If it weren’t for the xilun people, we would still be a barbarian tribe, and this miraculous city wouldn’t have appeared.”
Black Widow Hill’s words were sorrowful, but they were also impressive.
From this, it could be seen that the xilun people had conquered the continent both mentally and spiritually.
..................
When they were less than ten miles away from the Queen’s city.
Shen lang and Hill were stopped by a group of elite cavalry.
This group of Knights were all women, white women.
Each of them was very tall, with an average of more than 1.8 meters. Each of them looked very thin, but they were all very strong.
they’re the Roland clan, a powerful fighting race with very few people. They’re also the indigenous people of this new continent. They’re a matriarchal society. The men take care of their children at home while the women fight outside. Hill introduced in a low voice.
When the leader of the witch Empire’s Knights saw Hill, her gaze became much friendlier. When she saw Shen lang, who was from the East, she was stunned.
“Who are you? What’s the matter?” The female knight leader said.
Shen lang was so excited that he almost burst into tears because she spoke Chinese.
After more than half a year, he finally heard his mother tongue again. At this moment, he was filled with a sense of belonging to the witch Empire.
“I’m here to pay my respects to the Queen.” Shen lang said.
although the witch Empire is considered the homeland of the Easterners in the Western world, we are already in danger. Are you sure you want to enter our capital? ” the female knight leader said.
“Yes,” Shen lang replied.
The leader of the female Knights looked at Shen lang for a while and shook her head, ” “I’m sorry, but I can’t.”
“Why?” Shen lang asked.
during this period of time, many Easterners have entered our Queen’s city, ” the female knight leader said. however, 80% of them are spies. After entering the city, they have carried out wanton destruction. So, please leave.
“I have to go in,” Shen lang said.
The leader of the female Knights raised her hand, and dozens of powerful female Knights raised their crossbows and aimed at Shen lang and Hill.
I don’t want to hurt you two, but Queen City doesn’t welcome anyone. The female knight leader said.
“I ... Might be your Queen’s man,” Shen lang said as he raised his hands.
After hearing his words, the female Knights were not shocked; instead, they were extremely furious.
It was as if their Queen had been tainted.
Shen lang knew that he had stirred up a hornet’s nest. This Queen Medusa was more powerful than he had imagined. She was even more powerful than a mortal.
Therefore, in the hearts of these female Knights, no one was worthy of being the Queen’s husband.
Hill also looked at Shen lang in disbelief.
“Take him down!” The leader of the female Knights ordered, and Shen lang was captured. He was even put on a mask.
“Beautiful hill, it’s time to say goodbye,” Shen lang said as he looked at Hill.
Black Widow Hill looked at Shen lang for a long time and said, ” “Goodbye, my former lover. I will never forget this one month. It is the most beautiful moment of my life. All the happiness in my life seems to have gathered here. I will never meet a man like you again. I will never love a person so much again.”
Then, Hill got on his horse and left.
As expected of a sea merchant, as expected of a pirate’s daughter.
..................
Shen lang was brought into the Queen’s city with his head covered.
He couldn’t see anything, but he could smell it. At this time, Queen City was still full of fragrance, which was completely different from the stench in Jade City.
In fact, Shen lang could even hear beautiful music. Some people were singing, and some were playing the violin.
At this time, the witch Empire is about to be destroyed, and you still have the mood to sing?
But no matter what, this city was still beautiful.
“God, please bless my queen.”
“God, please bless my queen.”
Shen lang kept hearing this sentence.
The city was too big. After walking for a long time, Shen lang felt that he was going up the mountain.
After walking for a long time, everything in the surroundings became quiet, and the fragrance in the surroundings became even more profound and charming.
They must have entered the palace. It was the White Palace on the cliff, like a city in the sky.
They walked for a long time.
It was as if he had entered a Palace, because it was very quiet here and was shrouded in a special aura.
lady official, we’ve caught an Eastern man. He claims to be the man of the Queen. Should we break his car? ” The female knight leader said.
Shen Lang’s scalp turned cold when he heard that. It can’t be, right? I told you that I’m your Queen’s man, and you want to break my car? Was Queen Medusa’s dignity so inviolable? Was she still a mortal?
“Take off his hood,” the female official said.
Shen lang was stunned when he heard the voice. His body started to tremble.
An old friend! It was another old friend, an old friend that he had not seen for a few years.
It had been a few years since she had heard this voice. Shen lang had tried to find out more about her, but there was no news.
The leader of the female Knights took off Shen Lang’s mask and revealed his handsome face.
When the female official saw Shen Lang’s face, her beautiful face was stunned. She looked at him in disbelief.
“Shen Qianqian, Shen lang!”
Shen lang looked at this familiar face and could not help but tremble.
Zhang Chunhua, the daughter of Zhang San.
He didn’t expect to see this Fox tens of thousands of miles away.
