Chapter 423: Came to a Very Far Away Place

Baidi City is the capital of the northern border of the Britannia Empire. It is the administrative center, economic center, cultural center, and transportation center of the northern border. It is undoubtedly the largest city in the northern border.

Although it was already late at night, the dark sky did not make this largest city in the north lose its vitality.

The roads in the city are filled with an endless stream of people. Merchants either set up stalls beside the roads to sell their goods, or carry their goods around on poles, shouting, peddling, or renting their own goods. The shop below displays a dazzling array of products.

Thanks to these merchants who never rest even at night, Baidi City is full of vitality both day and night.

The night sky of Baidi City was reflected in red by the light of the fire in the city.

Su Cheng was currently standing on the upper floor of the Northern Territory General Administration, the tallest building in Baidi City.

Su Cheng, expressionless, silently looked down at the street below.

Standing on the tallest building in Baidi City, the street scene at night unfolded endlessly before Su Cheng's eyes.

Looking down from the Northern Territory General Administration, the bustling streets of Baidi City are sparkling. The flickering oil lamps and torch lights are swaying illusively in the darkness. Because of this, the streets look like they are filled with thin air. Like a thin layer of smoke, the details of the streets appear blurry.

Looking down like this, I always feel that the street has become so small.

Businessmen selling goods, pedestrians wandering around with curious faces, workers clearing snow, beggars lying on the street begging for food and money... all the living beings underneath were all caught in Su Cheng's eyes.

The noisy voices of the people below seemed to be far away, but also seemed to be right next to Su Cheng, blurry and clear.

Although it didn't snow tonight, one or two lonely snowflakes would still fall from the sky from time to time, falling quietly as if they were breathless.

Su Cheng raised his right hand and caught a falling snowflake with the fingertips of his right hand.

A faint cold and tingling feeling immediately spread from the fingertips.

——The snow in the north... seems to be much colder than Pendragon's...

Su Cheng, who suddenly had this idea for no reason, brushed the snowflake off his fingertips and took a deep breath.

The air is filled with the smell of prosperity and foreign land.

The North has a completely different culture from Pendragon, and the air is filled with the atmosphere of a foreign land.

Although the two cities are both very prosperous and have very similar night scenes, Su Cheng, who is used to seeing Pendragon's night scenes, can still find many similarities between Pendragon and Baidi City from this night scene. different.

Here, Su Cheng couldn't recall Pendragon's night scene.

——I really came to a very far away place.

A faint bitter smile slowly appeared on Su Cheng's face.

The last time I had this special feeling of loneliness was 4 years ago.

That was when Su Cheng first came to this different world.

That time, Su Cheng came to this strange world from the familiar earth.

But this time, Su Cheng came to this unfamiliar northern territory from the familiar imperial capital.

Different from the last time, Su Cheng's "moving" this time was under tremendous pressure.

Su Cheng now shoulders the important task of rebuilding the Knights of Michael and guarding the northern gate of the empire.

When Su Cheng thought of this, his shoulders felt so tired.

Su Cheng put his hands on the window railing in front of him, and his originally straight body slowly bent down, and a look of fatigue that he usually never showed in front of acquaintances gradually appeared on his face.

The whole person looked like he was mentally exhausted.

At this moment, Su Cheng heard the sound of "squeaking" snow coming from behind him.

After hearing the sound of stepping on the snow that was approaching him, Su Cheng straightened up suddenly and returned to his previous upright body.

While turning around and looking back, the fatigue on Su Cheng's face quickly dissipated.

After casting his gaze behind him, he saw an old face full of smiles.

Appeared in Su Cheng's eyes.

With a smile on his face, Humphrey looked at Su Cheng and said, "Your Majesty, Captain, isn't the night view of Baidi City pretty good?"

"Well, it's a pretty great city." Su Cheng smiled, "Even the air is full of prosperity. It really deserves to be the largest city in the north."

Hearing Su Cheng's praise for Baidi City, Humphrey's face showed a hint of relief: "I have spent a lot of effort to make Baidi City develop like this."

After expressing his gratitude for his contribution to Baidi City, Humphrey continued to say to Su Cheng:

"Your Excellency, the leader, the banquet prepared for you is about to begin. Let's go to the banquet quickly."

"Well, good. I'd like to ask His Excellency the Governor to lead the way for me."

…

The scene of the reception banquet prepared for Su Cheng and Willie (mainly for Su Cheng) was filled with joy.

The aroma of powder lingered in the nose, and there was a slight noise in the ears. The sound of footsteps, laughter, musical instruments, and the clear sound of the clinking of wine glasses and teacups all filled this small banquet scene, making this place It looked very lively and joyful.

There were not many people attending the reception banquet. There were only Su Cheng, Willie, Humphrey, and the important ministers of the Northern Territory Administration. There were only about ten people in total.

Everyone sat around a long table, which was not very big. Su Cheng and Humphrey sat at the head of the long table.

The long table was filled with northern specialty delicacies and northern specialty drinks, as well as black tea, which is absolutely indispensable in any banquet hosted by Britannia people.

In addition to the delicious food, in order to increase the vitality and excitement of the banquet, Humphrey and invited a large number of musicians and dancers.

Compared with the special delicacies on the table, the group of dancers dancing in exotic styles attracted the attention of Su Cheng and Willy (mainly Su Cheng).

There were many stoves at the banquet, so the banquet was very warm. Su Cheng and Willy both wore only thin cloth clothes.

This warm environment gives the dancers the best stage to show off their skills.

The dancers invited by Humphrey were all dressed very boldly.

His upper body was only wearing a cloth that only covered his chest, revealing his slender waist.

The cloth that only covered the breasts was not completely "covered". About 1/3 of the breasts were still exposed, revealing the "deep" lines.

She was wearing a skirt that only reached her knees, revealing her slender, white legs.

Since this group of dancers entered the banquet, this group of dancers with beautiful faces and graceful figures attracted most of the attention of Su Cheng and Willy.

Willie kept looking straight at the dancers who were dancing a foreign dance.

However, Willy's eyes were full of integrity and appreciation.

Willie was mainly admiring the dancers' exotic-style dance.

Compared with Willy, Su Cheng's eyes are much simpler and more complicated.

Su Cheng had no interest in the dancers' dancing at all.

Su Cheng was simply attracted by the dancers' figures and appearances.
