Chapter 343 Meeting in the City of Puppetry

Under the clouds, puppets with wings spread out like eagles were hovering in the sky. Facing the magic airship that suddenly broke into the sky above the puppet city, many puppets gathered into a team and flew over.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

A series of cold black iron lights streaked across the sky and landed on the deck of the magic airship. Several knights jumped off the back of the black iron eagle.

Chrono glanced at several knights, turned his head, covered his mouth with his hands, and whispered to Chu Ming: "The Royal Cavalry Regiment of the Puppet Kingdom is divided into two factions. One is the natural knights headed by the griffin knights, and the other is the puppet knights headed by the iron eagle knights."

"These six knights should be the iron eagle knights."

Chu Ming looked at him in surprise, "Crono, you seem to know a lot about these."

The man said with some pride: "Thinking that this place is so dangerous, I did enough homework before coming..."

Just as the two were still talking, Roman came out of the elevator and walked towards the iron eagle knight.

The man smiled elegantly, "Haven, long time no see."

The iron mask on the Iron Eagle Knight in the lead opened automatically, revealing a resolute face. The man smiled, "Hello, Mr. Roman, and please say hello to Master Bernardo and Master Lennart for me."

"Please help the crew to register with us. We have prepared a landing dock for the airship."

"You're welcome."

After chatting with the man for a few words, Roman called the crew to line up and come to the Iron Eagle Knight to register.

As passengers on the ship, Chu Ming and his party were naturally also within the scope of registration, and they lined up early.

After Roman commanded the crew to line up, he did not leave, but came to Chu Ming.

"Mr. Ryan, the entry procedures to the Magic Puppet Kingdom are a bit troublesome, please don't take it to heart." Chu Ming smiled, "This is enough to show that the royal family attaches great importance to the safety of the city. I can't be happy enough." Roman couldn't help laughing, "After the magic airship is docked, I still need to stay on the airship for a few days and complete the maintenance work before I can get off the ship." "If nothing unexpected happens, the captain and we will stay on the magic airship most of the time until the opening of the magic puppet exhibition." "If you don't find a good place to go after getting off the ship, welcome back to the magic airship, our cabin door is always open for you." Chu Ming shook the man's hand, "Thank you, thank Mr. Bernardo and Mr. Lennart for me." The man waved his hand and smiled, "It's a small matter. After finding a place to stay in the city, remember to let someone go back to the airship to inform me so that I can visit you and have a drink with you, hahaha." The two chatted for a while, and the line soon came to them. Iron Eagle Knight Haven glanced at Chu Ming and his group, pointed at Lutishia and Ana, "Children, come register first."

Lutishia was surprisingly well-behaved, and she and Ana walked honestly to the Iron Eagle Knight.

The man asked, "What are your names?"

The two looked at each other, and Lutishia said the identities that Chu Ming had prepared for them in advance: "Uncle, my name is Lutishia Brick, and his name is Ana Brick, my younger brother."

Haven raised his eyebrows when he heard Brick's last name, and said seriously, "Is it Brick, the guardian family of Clinton Kingdom?"

Lutishia nodded in confusion, not knowing why this uncle suddenly became excited when he heard Brick's last name.

"Excuse me, is Mr. Ryan Brick here?"

The knight's eyes passed over Lutishia and the others and fell on Chu Ming and others.

Chu Ming walked out of the crowd, "I am Ryan Brick, sir, hello."

Haven's eyes lit up, but he still said cautiously: "Please show me something that can prove your identity, sir."

"Something that proves your identity."

Chu Ming touched his chin. Even if he took out the family emblem, these knights of the puppet country might not be able to recognize it. If he wanted to prove his identity... a light flashed in his head, and he reached out to the void and pulled out a golden ticket with complex patterns in the silver vortex.

"Is this a gold ticket?!"

Before Haiwen spoke, Roman shouted in surprise.

Whenever the puppet exhibition was about to open, the royal family would leak the tickets for the exhibition to the outside world. The most popular among them were cheap copper tickets, and even ordinary citizens had the opportunity to buy them.

In addition to copper tickets, there were silver tickets, which were generally only given to famous full-time puppeteers or some distinguished guests.

As a senior full-time puppeteer, the tickets he received were silver tickets.

As for the gold coupons above the silver coupons, he had only seen them in the hands of Captain Bernardo and his teacher. It is said that the guests who can get the gold coupons are either respected puppet masters or guests that the royal family also values.

He never thought that Chu Ming actually had a gold coupon in his hand. Suddenly, his eyes changed a little when he looked at Chu Ming.

Haiwen took the gold coupon from Chu Ming and took a serious look at it, and respectfully held the gold coupon in front of him with both hands.

"It is a gold coupon without a doubt. Welcome Mr. Ryan to the Puppet Kingdom. The Iron Eagle Knight will immediately prepare a residence for you and your friends. Please follow me."

Chu Ming took back the gold coupons and refused with a smile: "No, I have some of my own industries in the Puppet City, and I already have a temporary place to go."

Haiwen bowed and said: "Do you need the Iron Eagle Knight to take you down in advance?"

"Knight Haiwen is polite, just follow the normal process."

Haven nodded, and did not continue to disturb Chu Ming, but continued to register.

After the two finished talking, Krono came over in surprise.

"I know this ticket is precious, but I didn't expect it to be able to drive the Royal Knights."

Elena smiled and said, "Is this what you are talking about?"

The woman pulled out a golden ticket from her clothes.

Krono's eyes widened, and he said in disbelief, "How come you have one too?"

Chu Ming also looked at the woman in surprise.

Milisha whispered, "Sister Elena, is this amazing?"

The woman smiled and said, "This is what my teacher gave me, and I still have these."

She pulled out five or six silver coupons from her pocket again.

"Here, one for each person."

"Thank you, Sister Elena."

Lutishia happily took the silver coupon, spread it out with both hands and put it on her head. The sunlight shone down, leaving a glare on the silver coupon.

She didn't know what the silver coupon meant, she just thought it looked good.

Roman, who was standing aside, was completely numb and speechless. He didn't expect that he could see two owners of gold tickets in one day, and they were both passengers of their airship.

After a long while, the man smiled bitterly: "Mr. Ryan, you are really amazing."

Chu Ming patted his shoulder and smiled: "It's just a ticket, nothing."

Roman was stunned for a moment, and didn't bother about it anymore.

More than ten minutes later, the Iron Eagle Knight completed the registration of the airship, said goodbye to everyone, rode on the puppets to leave the deck, and guided the magic airship to land.

The magic airship fell into the clouds and passed through the clouds. Everyone's vision suddenly widened, and they could clearly see the densely packed urban area below and the lush green fields in the distance.

As the airship lowered in altitude, everyone gradually saw the large green lake below the airship.

Roman explained: "This lake is called Green Rust Lake. It is located in the outer city of the Puppet City. It was dug by a special earth magician and is specially used to moor various large airships."

"The airship will shake when it is moored. Keep an eye on these two children and don't fall. I'll go to the operation room to check first."

The man pointed at Lutishia and Ana and hurriedly left the deck.

"Lutishia, Ana, come here."

"Okay, teacher."

Chu Ming held the two and looked outside the railing. They had come to a position parallel to some towering buildings.

Only a dozen seconds later, with a "bang", the airship landed on the lake. Waves rose in the Green Rust Lake, hitting the high dam on the shore. The hull shook violently, but the people on the deck still stood steadily.

Some weaker crew members also held the railing tightly and looked down, unwilling to miss the shocking scene when the airship landed on the lake.

After a long while, the lake gradually calmed down, the magic circle on the magic airship gradually dimmed, and the engine was completely shut down.

"Guests, you can get off the boat."

Several crew members shouted and walked down the deck.

Chu Ming and his companions took the elevator to the sixth floor of the airship, where the open hatch will dock with the stairs of the dock.

Krono sighed: "Finally, we can get off the boat. Although it's good to stay on the boat, it's still not as good as stepping on the ground."

"Nephew Krono, can't you stay so soon?"

Bernardo's sharp and hearty laughter rang out from the corridor, and he and Roman walked over together.

Krono looked back and scratched his head awkwardly, saying, "It's good on the boat."

"Hahaha."

Bernardo, who was shorter, patted his waist and said, "I'm here to see you off. Remember to go back to the airship and visit me more often."

Chu Ming smiled and said, "Goodbye, Mr. Bernardo, Mr. Roman, we'll come back to visit you in a few days."

Roman smiled and waved, saying, "Goodbye."

After saying goodbye to Bernardo and the others, Chu Ming and his party followed the guidance of the crew and walked out of the cabin with a group of airship passengers. Looking forward, from the busy dock to the bustling streets outside the Green Rust Lake, to the towering and solemn black tower building in the distance, the entire city was in sight, and it looked very prosperous.

"It is worthy of being the central hub of the Southern Kingdom. Compared with the City of Puppetry, Clinton Royal City is more like a country town."

Chu Ming couldn't help but sigh, and walked down the stairs with a group of passengers, stepping on the solid ground.

Ana stood beside Chu Ming. He looked around and whispered, "I've never seen a city of this style, and there are so many people."

"Hehe, this is much more fun than the Kingdom of God."

Lutisia looked around with sparkling eyes, everything she saw was new.

They walked out of the crowd, found an open space, and stopped for a while.

Milisa asked, "Where are we going now?"

"For this..."

Chu Ming looked around.

"I remember I have written to Senior Sister Trina and the Knights, and someone should pick us up."

Chu Ming had just come to the City of Puppetry, and actually didn't know where to go.

"There are too many people here, let's go out and take a look."

Chu Ming was about to take a step, but was stopped by Elena.

"Wait, is it the one on the right?"

He was stunned for a moment, and looked in the direction of the woman's finger, and saw a knight holding several large wooden boards in the open space in front of the dock warehouse area.

As if afraid that others wouldn't see it, the font on the board was written in extremely large words - "Welcome Captain Ren to come and give us guidance!"

"..."

Chu Ming's head was covered with black lines, and he said with an embarrassed expression: "There shouldn't be a second person named Ren here. Let's go over and take a look."

Crono looked at those big characters and couldn't help but said with envy: "Ren, this is so majestic."

Chu understood him and said, "If you want, please ask Mr. Bernardo to put your name on the magic airship. I guarantee that wherever the airship goes, your name will fly to it."

"This... seems okay."

The man lowered his head and actually began to seriously think about the feasibility of the matter.

Ignoring Crono, they continued to approach the warehouse area, and the shouts of several knights holding placards could be heard faintly on the noisy dock.

"Captain Ren!"

"Where are you!"

Chu Ming walked through the crowd with an embarrassed look on his face and came to the knights. He glanced at the knights who were waving wooden boards and saw Miguel and the fox knight Nathan who were squatting on the ground and devouring bread. .

Just as he was about to speak, he caught a glimpse of a girl wearing a simple maid's dress walking towards him out of the corner of his eye.

"Mr. Lane, long time no see."

The maid walked up to Chu Ming with a smile on her face and saluted him dignifiedly.

Chu Ming was stunned, smiled and waved, "Mattie, long time no see."

The person who came was none other than the maid Mattie who had been following Trina. As a memory demon, the girl’s appearance had not changed much compared to when she was in the Violet City. However, Chu Ming’s keen perception told her that the girl in front of her His strength seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes.

He was surprised: "Have you achieved an epic breakthrough?"

Mattie chuckled and nodded: "Yes, just like you."

"It's easy for a memory doll to improve its strength. On the contrary, you were able to break through to three epic levels in just a few years, which surprised Mattie."

The girl's tone was gentle, and Chu Ming couldn't hear any mood swings, but he was used to Mattie's way of speaking and didn't find it strange.

"Where's Senior Sister Trina? Didn't she come?"

Chu Ming glanced behind Mattie and saw no one else.

Mattie lowered her head and said, "The lady was busy with matters and didn't come here, but she was very happy to hear the news that you were coming to the Demon City, and she specially asked me to invite you to the palace."

Chu Ming shook his head and smiled: "Although I also want to meet my senior sister, I have other things to deal with when I come to the Demon City this time, so I can only postpone my visit for a few days."

"It doesn't matter, you can just follow your own schedule."

Mattie replied gently, saying hello and saluting Crono and the others behind him.

"Captain?!"

"Look, that's the leader!"

Several knights holding wooden signs saw Chu Ming in the crowd and waved their arms excitedly.

"where?!"

Miguel and Nathan quickly stood up and straightened their backs.

"I'm here."

Chu Ming waved to the knight and walked over.
