Planet Lorenz, Western Hemisphere.
Across the Geyaoji Mountains and through the oasis plains is the Ruoshui River, which blocks the expansion of the desert.
The vast desert is the land of the dead, with sand seas and burial grounds interlaced, sand dunes rolling in dust, desolate and distant, and camel caravans traveling on boats rushing back and forth to the few oasis cities in the desert.
The City of the Dead, its concept includes the entire desert area, an area that has almost no development value for most humans. This is the kingdom of the Seventh Kingship.
It is precisely because of the special environmental problems that the territory occupied by the Seventh Royal Power in the human world on the planet Loren is the largest among all the royal powers.
Penglai Sky Island came to this desert accompanied by Leviathan, flew over the Weak Water, and hovered on the edge of the desert like a spectacle.
Every country in the world also has its own airspace, but the City in the Sky is a special case.
When it reaches a certain height and has a certain scale, this floating continent with natural vitality can ignore the rules of airspace, just like an island in the high seas. Sometimes, even if you plant a flag and establish a country on it, the federal government will recognize your country.
It's like the Federation is encouraging people to expand the living space of the human world.
Of course, this also depends on how strong the country on the ground where you place your flag is. Just taking the City of the Dead as an example, if anyone comes here to establish a country for no reason, the seventh one will probably come to attack.
When he arrived at the City of the Dead, Mu Hua did not let Penglai Island go deep into the desert to find an oasis in this barren land.
Without calling out to Treze, he just floated on the outskirts of the desert, allowing Thursday to pose with the floating monsters that were taking turns to get some fresh air.
Mu Hua didn't make any unusual moves, but the people in the City of the Dead couldn't sit still.
Nothing is said here, and Treze is unlikely to jump out in a hurry to confront Mu Hua.
A lot of airships flew out of the desert. In a short period of time, among the airships that arrived near Penglai Sky Island, there were even five armed starships with a length of more than a kilometer.
These fleets can be regarded as the government armed forces of the City of the Dead. These government armed forces are not clear about the specific situation and dare not take the initiative to talk to Mu Hua.
The fleet kept a distance from Penglai Island, as if waiting for someone important enough to come and communicate with Mu Hua.
"Dear Mr. Mu Hua, Carlisle sends his regards."
After an unknown amount of time, a remotely located virtual projection appeared on the Penglai Sky Island. A human with a somewhat helpless look on his face stood respectfully in front of Mu Hua and greeted him.
"Well, I think I've seen you before. What's going on with those fleets outside? Do I have to go through procedures and pay parking fees when I come to your place?"
By the swimming pool outside the castle, Mu Hua was leaning on a lounge chair flipping through a book. A sturdy Behemoth was sleeping beside him. Vivian and Tuesday were swimming in the pool in their swimsuits. Mu Hua said to Carlisle.
"They are all the garrison troops of the City of the Dead. It's their duty. Please excuse me for making fun of you. I don't know why Mr. Mu Hua came here..." Carlisle asked tentatively.
Carlisle, the seventh crown winner, was someone Mu Hua had seen in his early years when he was fighting with Treze in the Courtyard of the Dead.
Treze is a king after all, so he still needs to maintain his face and dignity.
Mu Hua came here for no reason and lay down. Unsure of Mu Hua's attitude, Carlisle was pushed out to contact Mu Hua first.
"You went to the Caines Courtyard before? I heard that you also received a lot of development rights. You guys are quite free. Aren't the City of the Dead, including the Geyaoji Mountains and the courtyards of the surrounding countries enough for you to mess around with?"
Throwing the book in his hand aside, Mu Hua sat up straight and asked the virtual projection of Carlisle.
"Heh... Sir, you also know that His Majesty Trezer's methods are a bit extreme. In recent years, there have been no uncontrollable changes in the courtyards near the City of the Dead, and the suspended stones produced in the Caines Courtyard are also quite valuable."
"I heard that you were in a stalemate with the demon over there. We happened to have some free time, so we decided to go and lend a hand. After all, this is our duty," Carlisle explained.
The City of the Dead, including the Weak Horizon Plain and even the Goyogi Mountains, all fall under the protection of Treze.
There are at least 500 courtyard entrances within this range, if not 800, including some large and small countries. The protection here refers more to assisting those countries in suppressing the courtyards within their territory.
Treze's methods can indeed be called extreme. When the courtyard is in trouble, the wind of aging that blows across the entire area combined with the Scourge of the Undead is basically his routine operation, a routine operation that makes it impossible for anyone to have an easy time.
This method caused serious damage to the natural environment of the courtyard, and the demons were also very troubled by it. Regardless of fear or disgust, Treze suppressed all the courtyards in the area with his own strength.
The people in this area are quite receptive to undead magic, and it can almost be regarded as a kingdom of the undead in the human world.
"You, or you guys, are you sure you want to talk to me like this?" Mu Hua did not comment on Carlisle's explanation, but asked in a calm, even peaceful tone.
Carlisle cannot be said to be a little Karami. Perhaps Mu Hua can put him in eighteen postures, but as a crowned king, not to mention that he may be the patron saint behind some human countries, in some courtyards, he may have established his own country.
So even if Carlisle is afraid of Mu Hua, it is difficult for him to be overly humble. It's not that he can't, but he doesn't know how to do it. Everyone is praised highly every day. After getting used to it, it is a bit unprofessional to act like a grandson.
Mu Hua didn't mind this too much. What he didn't like was not his attitude, but the content of his words.
"Alas, Mr. Mu Hua, strictly speaking, even if the boss wants to do something that has an adverse effect on you, it is still within the rules." Seeing that Mu Hua had no intention of mediating, Carlisle sighed.
"To be honest, we are ready to take over the Cains Courtyard. There is no other way. It's because you are at odds with the boss. You also know that we are the shadows of the king after all." Carlisle said neither softly nor harshly.
"Hehe, within the rules." Mu Hua chuckled.
Mu Hua did not make any movement. Above Penglai, a distant sound came from Thursday's body. Although the floating monsters around Penglai were still swimming lazily, their movement range was gradually expanding and they were approaching the fleet farther away.
"Woo~~~"
"Woo~~~"
The whale calls and the floating monsters are not so terrible. Although they are huge, when they are not crazy, their appearance even looks a bit sacred.
But Leviathan is a bit scary. Its body, which is larger than a starship, seems to be covered with heavy armor, and its hundreds of solid tentacles, which are either hooks or claws, seem like strange chains that can extend infinitely.
The chains, which were thicker than the pillars in the courtyard, swung delicately, and the mutated tentacles seemed ready to draw the distant fleet in at any time.
In a blink of an eye, the surrounding fleets seemed to have entered a dangerous meteorite zone in the starry sky. Leviathan and floating monsters were like star meteorites that could hit them at any time.
The floating monster's seemingly bulky body in the air is like a whale entering the sea, flexibly shuttling between the fleets.
The crew members on the starship looked out the window at the troll that passed by them, and they were so panicked that they did not dare to start the starship casually, for fear of an accidental "running aground" collision.
"No! Don't do anything." Carlisle's virtual projection spoke hurriedly.
"I say, brother, it's really not good for you to do this." Carlisle was distressed.
"The king always has some privileges. If he wants to occupy the Caines Courtyard, just let him do it."
"In fact, you just need to take a step back. No one will say anything to him this time, but there must not be a next time, otherwise it will be unacceptable."
"And His Majesty has regained his face in the Caines Courtyard. He will not target you because of the Leviathan incident in the future."
"Just think of it as changing the courtyard. If you are really angry, I suggest you go directly to His Majesty Trezer. You can open a dimensional battlefield and do whatever you want."
"This fleet is full of generals. Why make things difficult for them?" Carlisle advised Mu Hua quickly.
"Who said I wanted to make things difficult for them? As for the rules, I also said that those fleets were too close. Even Leviathan was not allowed to operate?" Mu Hua retorted.
"Okay, okay, of course. How about I call His Majesty Therese now?" Carlisle was helpless and turned to mutter to himself.
"If it were me, I would just give up the Caines Courtyard and move to another courtyard. Why would I have to compete with the King? Not to mention that my life span would be cut short by the wind of aging, other Kings would not let their power fall."
He muttered to himself, as if trying to persuade Mu Hua. Mu Hua glanced at Carlisle and said nothing more, but suddenly a fruit basket appeared in his hand. (End of this chapter)
