Chapter 249: Silla State House, Battle of Lingjiang River

Maybe it was because they came here on a Fuso ship, the Goryeo customs inspection seemed to be extra strict. However, after they revealed their identity as mages, they didn't cause any trouble.

This seaport belonged to Silla, the capital of Goryeo, and Goryeo's national pavilion was also located here.

This saved them the trouble of traveling through mountains and rivers.

As the capital of a country, Silla has a very large area.

In the north of the bustling city, there is a quiet area surrounded by ancient garden walls. Within the walls, there are pavilions and towers, covered in vermilion and solemn, and their style is quite similar to that of the imperial palace in Kyushu.

Foreign tourists are not prohibited from visiting here, but they need to pay an entrance fee, which is about RMB 108.

There are many tourists here, but the majority are students.

Because this is where the Silla Academy is located, and the Goryeo National Hall is located here.

"I've heard that the first school in Goryeo, Silla University, was renovated from the former royal palace. Today, I see that it's true."

The crowd did not immediately go to the National Pavilion to play the game, but first wandered around the institution, and then they heard Jiang Shaoxu sigh.

"It's quite unique, but it's a pity to waste this ancient building." Jiang Yu sighed.

“I heard that the area here was not developed at the time and belonged to the Ya’an area of ​​Silla.” Zhao Manyan crossed his arms, looking disapproving.

"Because this place has great historical significance, we built the school here. We can use a large group of wizards to resist the monsters, and we don't have to spend too much money on construction, which saves a lot of military expenses."

"So, the students of Silla Academy at that time were pretty miserable."

"They were also very strong. The Goryeo national team at that time could pin Fuso to the ground." Ai Jiangtu said.

"This is a different time. The current Goryeo National Team is just so-so." Mu Tingying curled her lips.

"We've finished our walk. Jiang Shaoxu, go find someone to ask where the National Pavilion is. We still have to complete our instructor's arrangements after the fight."

Jiang Shaoxu nodded, and leisurely went to chat up a man who looked like a student from Silla Academy.

"There is another training mission, what is it?" Ai Jiangtu asked.

"Let's go to the sea battle. Instructor Feng Li asked us to go to Lingjiang City to see how Goryeo deals with sea monsters."

As a peninsula country, Goryeo has almost half of its borders facing the sea, but its situation is somewhat special.

To the west, there is the Fusang tree outside to block them, and to the east, they can see the Kyushu coastline.

The intensity of the sirens they had to face was reduced to a level, and it can only be said that the length of the coastline was a bit fatal to them.

Ai Jiangtu seemed to be thinking about something. This situation was somewhat similar to some coasts of Kyushu.

"The country seems to have attached great importance to the ocean in recent years." Jiang Yu said. He also tasted the connotation of the two recent training missions.

"You guys want to go to the National Pavilion to watch the game? I'll lead the way for you!"

Just as Bai Mo was about to speak, he heard an unusually gentle, polite, magnetic and gentle voice suddenly sounded in front of the crowd.

Following the sound, I saw a gentle and handsome man approaching with Jiang Shaoxu's interesting expression.

"They are all my friends, little brother, thank you for your help."

Jiang Shaoxu pointed at everyone and chuckled, emitting an aura that could cause chaos in the court.

"No trouble, no trouble. My name is Park Nanren, and I'm the gymnasium defender for Korea. I'm going to have an intra-team competition soon, so it's no problem for me to take you with me."

Park Nam-in had a smile as warm as the spring breeze on his face. His eyes swept across Bai Mo and others without stopping. Finally, they fell on Jiang Shaoxu and did not move away for a long time. He looked serious and a little proud.

Hearing his name, Zhao Manyan Guanyu Jiangyu felt a chill in his tailbone and a chill on his back.

"Then thank you for your help." Jiang Shaoxu smiled brightly, and immediately bewitched Park Nanren.

So, the group, with strange expressions on their faces, led by Park Nam-in, went to the National Hall of Silla Academy.

"Hey, Bai Mo, I think this person is a bit dangerous, so don't ask me to go up later."

Zhao Manyan came closer at some point and said to Bai Mo thiefily.

“How can a mid-level mage be dangerous?” Nan Jue looked at him in confusion.

"That's right. You're just a substitute and may not be qualified to play. Don't be too self-righteous." Mu Tingying also spoke at this time.

"You don't understand."

Zhao Manyan was too lazy to argue with this woman who was always looking for superiority. The main reason was that Mo Fan was not here, and he was not strong enough on his own.

The location of the Silla State Pavilion was not far from the gate of the entire ancient royal palace, and they arrived there in just a few steps.

Dougwans are usually quite empty, and the Silla Gwangwon is no exception.

As soon as they entered, Bai Mo and others were stopped. To be precise, Park Nanren, who was leading them, was stopped.

"Pu Nanren, it's fine for you to bring your mistress to the National Museum normally, after all, there's only one. Why are you bringing a large group of people in now? We also need space for our normal training. Don't bring some questionable people to the National Museum. This is not a place for you to pretend and satisfy your selfish desires!!"

Then a woman wearing black-framed glasses and with her hair combed meticulously scolded.

The woman was dressed in formal attire, and looked to be in her late thirties. She acted like a class teacher, and her eyes were full of disdain for the student in front of her.

"Teacher, I."

Park Nanren's face changed and he was about to argue, but the woman in front of him waved her hand impatiently.

"Okay, go in, it's time for training, don't make me say it again!"

After saying that, she ignored Park Nanren and took two steps forward to Bai Mo and the others. Her sharp eyes hidden under her glasses swept over everyone, and her tone softened a bit, but she still said with unquestionable certainty:

"You are not students of Silla Academy! Then go out. You can enjoy the gardens outside, but the National Hall is not open to outsiders."

"We are the Kyushu Kokufu team, and we are here to challenge you."

Bai Mo had no intention of saying more and directly took out the national costume badge to prove their identity, indicating that they were not outsiders.

"Kyushu National Government Team?"

"National Team!"

The majestic female instructor looked slightly surprised and took a look at the national costume badge that Bai Mo took out. Park Nanren behind her was in disbelief and was more angry as if he had been fooled.

"Since it is the Kyushu National Team that has come to visit, please follow me."

The female tutor glanced at Park Nanren and stretched out her hand to lead him inside.

After entering the national pavilion, the female instructor immediately notified Bai Mo and others that they were coming to challenge and compete.

"I wonder how you guys plan to compete?"

Bai Mo glanced at everyone, "Team competition."

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll make arrangements."

On the other side, Park Nam-in sat with the other students guarding the hall, with three parts of insecurity, three parts of ferocity, and four parts of shame and anger in his eyes.

Facing the instructor who was going to select students to fight against the Jiuzhou team, he angrily said: "Instructor, I want to go on the field. Those people actually dared to tease me. I will fight back fiercely!"

The female instructor ignored him, glanced at the students guarding the hall, and finally called him, another high-level wizard, and two other students of decent strength to go on stage.

As for Bai Mo, it was very simple, and he didn't need to consider anyone's opinions. He looked at everyone and finally said:

"Lao Ai, Guan Yu, Li Kaifeng, Mu Tingying, the rest of you go."

He was too lazy to take action. Without Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue, the only person in the team who could act as a destruction mage was Mu Tingying. To be honest, she was barely adequate, but it was enough to defeat Gaoli.

After all, Ai Jiangtu is there to back him up.

The battle started quickly. The space magic caught them off guard. While the four opponents were still drawing magic, Ai Jiangtu's mind-controlled fist had already landed on one of them, seriously injuring him instantly.

It can be seen that Park Nanren on the opposite side is very angry. His other companion's application of magic has shown that he is a high-level wizard and can temporarily resist a few of Ai Jiangtu's attacks.

However, it is obvious that their application of magic is not as good as Ai Jiangtu and others. Like Mu Tingying and others, they have not even mastered high-level magic.

Led by Ai Jiangtu, who was skilled in using high-level magic, the Goryeo team was unable to put up any effective resistance.

The situation was a one-sided crushing from the very beginning, and the three mid-level players from Goryeo were eliminated almost in the blink of an eye.

A high-level warrior only relied on his control and the magic tools on his body to resist for a while, and then successfully followed in the footsteps of the first two teammates.

It was only natural that marking Kyushu as belonging to the state in the Goryeo national embassy records would not arouse much interest in the public.

"How boring! It ended so easily." Guan Yu shrugged as he sat on the train to Lingjiang City.

"You're not happy yet when you go up and show it." Bai Mo smiled faintly.

"Uh, no, it's just that my opponent is too weak, so I can't show my strength well."

"Tsk, just keep pretending. The reason we won that game was mainly because of Old Ai's awesomeness. It has nothing to do with you three."

Zhao Manyan was not very happy with Guan Yu's pretense, and his words immediately attracted the attention of the three people.

Because it was too noisy, Bai Mo had to interrupt and asked, "What is the situation of the Sea War City in Lingjiang? Have you heard of it?"

Everyone was silent for a while, but Jiang Shaoxu spoke up:

"I do know a little bit."

So everyone turned their eyes to her.

"I have never been to Goryeo. I heard all this from my uncle when he was chatting with others." Jiang Shaoxu bit his lip and lost himself in memories.

"There is only one big city in the west of Goryeo, Linggang, and that's because it has a lot of mineral resources. Otherwise, Goryeo would hardly care about the western coastline."

"As the largest city in the west of Goryeo, Linggang City manages almost the entire western coastline."

"The entire west!?" Ai Jiangtu was slightly surprised. "Do they have so many military mages defending it?"

Jiang Shaoxu shook his head. "No, their military magicians will only guard a few important towns related to mineral development and transportation."

“Then how do they deal with the invasion of sea monsters? Just defend Lingjiang?” Nanjue couldn’t help but become curious. She had never studied Goryeo’s naval warfare model.

"Not facing it." Jiang Shaoxu uttered three words that made everyone confused, and then explained:

"There are no large towns in the west of Goryeo, and it's not close to the coastline. Apart from some key areas, they barely care about other places.

Because it is all the demon's territory, they only send hunters to patrol the coastline regularly to roughly figure out where the sirens have occupied. If it is important, they will send forces to take it back, if it is not important, they will leave it alone. "

"This..." Ai Jiangtu and Nanjue looked at each other. Kyushu's coastline is longer, but not every inch of it is inhabited by humans.

"What about Lingjiang City?" Mu Nujiao asked, "Most demons only focus on places where humans gather. They may not be interested in demons on land. Since Lingjiang City is the largest city in the west of Goryeo, how do they defend against sea monsters?"

Hearing this, everyone also paid attention, after all, this was the place where they were going to train this time.

“Almost all the cities near the sea in Lingjiang are naval cities. They don’t have dikes made of dike god stones to defend against sea monsters, so the real main city is actually located at a higher altitude and deeper inland.

The entire area near the sea is a sea battle city, but they have some dams such as flood control dams, which are made of solid materials to defend against small monsters. Therefore, although the intensity of the monsters that Lingjiang City has to face is not as strong as Fusang, the number of monsters will be far higher than what we have encountered in Donghai City. "

After Jiang Shaoxu finished speaking, everyone basically understood how Goryeo dealt with the sea monster.

To put it simply, it means hiding where they can't reach you and mobilizing social forces to deal with them.

Bai Mo could not deny this. For Jiuzhou, this could be the last emergency plan. The northwest of Jiuzhou is vast and boundless, and the development of the northwest will not be a dream at that time.

However, the southeast is prosperous and has many resources, so it is obviously not something that can be easily given up.

Goryeo has a narrow territory, and for people living there, moving around is no different from walking from the bedroom to the living room, but this is not the case in Kyushu.

The environment and climate are very different across the mountains.

After entering Lingjiang Sea Battle City, everyone was assigned to an urban area closer to the coast and no one paid any attention to them.

"These buildings are a bit sparse. If a siren tide comes, most of them will be washed away, and there is no ability to stop a large siren."

Nan Jue glanced at the surrounding environment and found that the surrounding buildings were neither as densely packed nor as tall as those in Fusang Donghai City. She couldn't help but say:

"This way, if a sea monster really attacks, we will undoubtedly have less room to maneuver, making it even more dangerous."

"And the area we govern is right in the center of the bay. Who knows how many sirens will pass by us at that time."

Mu Nujiao pointed to the bay in the distance, frowned, then relaxed, and said:

"I can use plant magic to replace places where we can stay, but the main thing is the number of sirens."

Everyone frowned upon hearing this. This was indeed the most difficult problem. If there were too many sirens, they would not be able to withstand it.

But most of those present were proud and arrogant people. If they were asked to admit that they were incompetent, they would not necessarily be happy about it. They would always want to hit a wall first.
