Picture 1,094 Rockets Launched From the Capital
If you have good eyesight, you can find that the hanging city is actually built on top of an above-ground city.
The city itself is twenty to thirty kilometers in size, but compared with the suspended capital directly above it, the scale is more than two or three times smaller, and the height is less than one-tenth of it.
The hanging city looked like a behemoth in size. It was no longer an aircraft carrier. If there were a space battleship, it would be about that size.
And that huge suspended capital was the source of the sense of surveillance that Lucia and Musashi sensed.
"Isn't there something wrong with this... historical background?"
Liu Xia looked at the suspended capital in the distance and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
"The hanging city looks like a man-made wonder at first glance, but if such a wonder can be built, the science and technology of this world should be stronger than that of pan-human history. However, the villagers in this village are still living in the agricultural era, even the calendar There is no concept of money..."
That should be the capital of the Lostbelt, where the King of the Lostbelt lives. The source of the sense of surveillance they feel should come from the King of the Lostbelt.
But at this moment, it seems that there is an unparalleled gap between the king and the common people in this Lost Belt, not only the gap in living standards and technology, but also the insurmountable class gap.
Dictatorship?
Class solidification?
A policy of obscuring the people?
A large number of related words suddenly popped up in Liu Xia's mind.
Although he does not have any academic qualifications, he has studied in the Clock Tower at least, and has experienced many worlds and gained a lot of common sense. He has accumulated knowledge for a long time, and he also has a somewhat in-depth understanding of political things.
Even if he didn't go very deep, he also understood that the ruler of this world was probably not a good old man like Skadi, but a dictator who placed himself above all the people.
But the world is indeed peaceful and the people are happy and well-being, which shows that this dictator has managed the country in an orderly manner - although 80% of it is the result of the policy of obscuring the people.
The ruler alone controls all the technology and power, and uses the policy of obscuring the people to obscure their wisdom, so that they have no unnecessary thoughts, no unnecessary desires, and can spend every day safely.
In this way, rulers can use this kind of peace to ensure their long-term peace and stability with the power in their hands.
For example, these people are like ants spinning in the palm of the ruler's hand, because the palm in front of them is the whole world. As long as this palm is safe, the people can spend every day without any desire.
Before seeing the King of the Lostbelt in person, just seeing the absolute gap between the upper and lower levels, Lu Xia had already had a lot of such speculations in her mind.
However, to find out whether it is true or not, we have to go to the capital to see with our own eyes.
But he felt that his guess was probably correct. After all, the Lostbelt itself was a certain phenomenon that had reached a dead end. The development of the entire world had come to a standstill due to policies of obscurity, which just met the conditions for becoming a certain phenomenon.
"Huh? What is that?"
While Liu Xia was meditating, a ray of light suddenly rose into the sky from the direction of the suspended capital in the distance, and then slowly magnified in Liu Xia's eyes.
With Liu Xia's eyesight, she could barely see clearly. It was a huge rocket capable of carrying people. It was shooting towards the village at several times the speed of sound.
Judging from the speed, it would probably take less than a few minutes to reach this village.
This technology is no longer powerful, but a completely black technology. Even in the history of pan-humanity, rockets of that level have not been developed. The technology possessed by this king of the Lostbelt surpasses the history of pan-humanity by many times. .
"Before we even went to look for him, he actually came to us."
A look of surprise appeared in Liu Xia's eyes.
After three Lostbelts, this is the first Lostbelt King to come to him on his own initiative.
"Musashi, let's go."
Lucia extinguished the flames under her feet, fell back to the ground, and greeted Musashi.
"Go and greet the envoy sent by the king of the Lost Belt."
No matter what, with his strength enough to protect himself absolutely, there would be no problem in protecting Musashi, so there was no reason to escape.
It's not a bad thing to go and see what kind of talents and strategies this king of the Lostbelt has.
…………
At the entrance of the village.
There are no ditches built here to stop the bandits. There is only a fence to stop the wild beasts. The entire village seems to have no defense facilities.
Including the middle-aged farmer who entertained Liu Xia and the others before, the village has a total of more than 200 people. At this moment, they all gathered at the entrance of the village, with faces full of surprise.
"That is the gift of the emperor!"
"In addition to festivals, it is said that only villages that have made outstanding contributions can receive additional gifts. I didn't expect that our village would be able to attract the emperor's attention!"
"But what achievements has our village made?"
The surrounding villagers were chattering happily, with expressions of joy and satisfaction on their faces when talking to each other, and occasionally a little doubt.
"Uncle, what does the emperor's gift mean?"
Seeing that Lucia seemed not interested in this, Musashi took the initiative to speak out and curiously asked the middle-aged farmer on the side.
After experiencing so many worlds, she has never seen a more bizarre ancient world than this one, so she is full of interest in it.

"The emperor's gift refers to a kind of medicine!"
The middle-aged farmer was also full of joy and answered knowingly.
"After eating it, not only will our bodies become very healthy, but our spirits will also be satisfied. Our brains will feel as if they are floating in the clouds. It is very comfortable!"
And that kind of gift will usually be sent to various villages by the emperor using huge rockets. Except for festivals, only villages that have made outstanding achievements can receive this kind of reward as an exception.
The so-called Son of Heaven should refer to the emperor. It seems that a certain Chinese emperor maintained his rule in the world, which caused this world to become a strange belt.
The drug sounds good, but the idea that the mind becomes erratic is suspicious no matter how you hear it.
Among people talking.
"Boom!"
The rocket also cut through the sky, and with a loud noise, it hit the ground not far away, bringing up a cloud of dust and air waves.
With that kind of impact, any human being, except for the Servants, would be dead if they went up there. Even if the Lord of the Clock Tower sat inside, it would be unsustainable.
"laugh--!"
Under everyone's gaze, the rocket's hatch opened, and two figures jumped out.
