As soon as Luo Tian's flying team entered the border of the Mars area, four giant spaceships immediately surrounded the team in the middle.
Jim ordered: "Everyone be on alert and protect His Majesty."
The formation of the flying car team changed, and they immediately surrounded the flying car that Luo Tian was riding in the middle.
"Your Majesty, be careful and safe. They won't act so quickly, right?" Jim said worriedly.
"Let's wait and see. I don't think they want to attack us." Luo Tian guessed.
A voice came from the spaceship's broadcast: "We are the Mars District Border Guard. We have received instructions from the capital and are now escorting the Emperor of the Heavenly King District into the capital. Please drive the flying car to our spaceship."
After broadcasting three times, the hatch at the rear of the foremost ship opened, which was large enough to accommodate the entire fleet of flying cars.
"Your Majesty, what should we do?" asked Jim.
Luo Tian calmly replied: "The guest follows the host's wishes, let's go in."
Jim ordered the car to move towards the spaceship with its hatch open and parked it inside.
The interior of the spacecraft was very large, the size of six football fields. An officer in a red uniform stepped forward and saluted Luo Tian: "Hello, I am Duke, the captain of the border guard. It is an honor to serve your majesty. Friends from the Tianwang District, please follow me."
Luo Tian followed Duke into an elevator and went directly to the third floor. After the door opened, Duke led them into the restaurant, where a sumptuous meal and fruits were already placed on the table.
"Everyone is tired from the journey, you can eat first, and then I will take you to rest. It is still a long distance from the capital of the border road, so you can have a good sleep." Duke said.
Luo Tian ordered: "Since the Mars District has provided such a thoughtful reception, brothers, please have your meal quickly."
After hearing the order, the guards sat at the dining table and began to eat with big mouthfuls.
"Your Majesty, please come with me to the box and talk." Du Crotian and Lorraine led the two into a VIP box.
Luo Tian saw all kinds of food on the table that he had never seen before, and he could tell that Duke had really put a lot of thought into it. Duke asked Luo Tian and Luo Lin to sit down and poured them two cups of fragrant coffee.
"Your Majesty, did you have a smooth journey?" Duke asked politely.
"It went smoothly and we didn't encounter any obstacles." Luo Tian replied.
"I hope everything goes well. You know the situation is tense now, and I'm worried about your safety on the road. May the God of Fire bless you!" Duke made the sign of the cross on his chest.
Although Luo Tian did not believe in God, he respected faith from the bottom of his heart, so he did not say anything.
"Captain Duke, how long will it take us to reach the capital?" Lorraine asked.
"It will take at least twelve hours. I have reported your arrival at the Mars area to General Peter, and he is waiting for you in the Fire Society." Duke said.
Luo Tian had read the information about the Mars District. The highest governor of the Mars District was the general, so it was a typical military-political integrated structure. The Peter family had controlled the Mars District for nearly a century and was deeply rooted. The Fire Society was the residence of the highest governor of the Mars District, similar to the Ice Palace in the Heavenly King District.
"Thank you Captain Duke for your hospitality, it is so thoughtful. Please also thank General Peter for his kindness on my behalf." Luo Tian said politely.
"Okay, I'll definitely convey that to you," Duke said.
Luo Tian and Luo Lin ate very well, and talked a lot with Duke, but most of them were irrelevant things. Duke was a very experienced person, and his words and actions were flawless, which was very impressive.
"Since Your Majesty has almost finished eating, I will take everyone to the guest room to rest for a while." Duke said.
"Okay, thank you very much." After Luo Tian finished speaking, he and Luo Lin followed Duke outside. Duke took everyone to the fifth floor by elevator. This floor was full of guest rooms, and anyone could stay in it. He handed a room card to Luo Tian and said, "Your room is an executive suite, you can enter and exit by swiping the room card. If you have any questions, you can call me at any time."
"Thank you, Captain!" said Lorraine.
After Duke left, Luo Tian invited Luo Lin to go back to the suite to rest. After entering the suite, Luo Tian checked the room and confirmed that there were no eavesdropping devices, then he and Luo Lin rested on the sofa in the living room.
"How do you feel?" Luo Tian asked.
"This is the first time I've met this Duke. Judging from his words and actions just now, this guy is very scheming. He didn't reveal any information that is useful to the purpose of our trip. It is also possible that he really doesn't know." Lorraine said.
"I feel the same as you do. The Martian district is very wary of us. They sent a spaceship to watch us as soon as we entered the border. Duke seems to be taking good care of us, but in fact he is temporarily locking us in the spaceship. They must have a purpose behind this. I am worried that they will attack me directly. If so, you have to find a way to escape and go back to report to Rubin." Luo Tian said.
"Your Majesty, don't think too much. Go to sleep first. You will still have to fight them when you wake up." Lorraine said.
Luo Tian lay on the soft bed in the suite and fell asleep unknowingly. He slept soundly, and when he woke up, he found that he was almost at his destination.
There was a knock on the door, Luo Tian opened it and saw Duke standing at the door. Luo Tian invited him in, but he waved his hand.
"Your Majesty, please pack up quickly, we will be at the Fire Society soon." Duke instructed.
"Okay, I'll get ready right away. Have you notified everyone else?" Luo Tian asked.
"Everything has been notified, so don't worry." Duke replied.
After Luo Tian packed up his things, he went out and walked to the spaceship square. At this time, everyone was already gathered here.
Duke said, "Friends in the Tianwang District, we are about to land at the Huoshe open space. It will be hot outside, so please take precautions against heat stroke."
With a loud rumble, the spaceship had landed. The hatch slowly opened, and Duke invited Luo Tian to walk out of the hatch together. A wave of heat came from outside, and his skin seemed to be burning on the edge of fire.
The army was standing in neat rows on the open ground. When they saw Luo Tian coming down the spiral staircase, they shouted, "Welcome, welcome, warm welcome!"
Luo Tian could see the murderous intent in the army's momentum and eyes. Duke accompanied Luo Tian and Luo Lin into the Fire Society. The buildings here were all fiery red, like burning flames.
Duke led Luo Tian to a magnificent hall and said, "This is the entrance to the Fire God Temple. Only you and Lord Luo Lin can enter the temple. No one else can enter."
Jim then said, "What if someone harms our Majesty?"
"I promise you, that's not going to happen," Duke said.
"What if it really happened?" Luo Tian asked.
"Please believe us. You have come all this way, and you must want to see the general. Our rules apply equally to everyone, and I hope you can understand."
Jim was about to argue, but Luo Tian stopped him: "When in Rome, do as the Romans do. We'll just listen to them. You wait here, Lorraine and I will go in."
"Yes, sir!" Jim bowed.
Luo Tian and Luo Lin followed Duke into the palace gate, and a magnificent palace appeared before them. ?
