Book 7, Heaven and Earth Turned Upside Down – Chapter 14, The City of Hess

Doehring Coas rendered momentarily speechless by Linley’s question

“Linley, I must tell you, if a weapon has just a little bit of adamantine alloyed into it, the weapon’s durability will increase to a very high level If a weapon were to be totally ave it to a Saint-level combatant and let him try to break it, he wouldn’t be able to scratch it, no ned

Linley clearly didn’t fully appreciate how valuable ada, can I use this ada Cowart previously explain the benefits to using heavy weapons, Linley wanted to acquire a heavy sword of his own Originally, Linley was planning to spend soood one But now that he had this chunk of ‘adaht now, Linley didn’t lack for e a heavy sith adae, and will most likely need this chunk of adamantine to be mixed with so about blacks weapons out of adah Mostit” Doehring Cowart chuckled

Linley nodded to himself

Adamantine was a material which even Deity-level coh to break But since it was possible for adaed into a weapon, naturally there had to be a special technique for it as well Only, the technique was probably too difficult

“Got it” Linley nodded

…

Linley and Second Prince Shaq continued speeding northwards, and the farther north they went, the sparser theanother three or four hundred kilo, they reached an area where the local cities and towns hadn’t had any people die

But these villages and toere very sparsely populated Most likely, people were afraid of the danger and had dohed loudly “It’s been quite a few days Finally we can rest”

Shaq looked at Linley

Seated on his horse, Linley see in the slightest, seeiving him a reliable, taciturn aura Towards Linley, Shaq had always felt a hint of dread Although he was a few years older than Linley, he always respectfully addressed Linley as ‘Master Linley’

“Master Linley, look That’s aside by side

Linley nodded

The Radiant Church had clearly decided to set up a line of defense here at the borders of the Kingdo the border, one could tell how doms and five duchies lost That’s about a third of the territory of the Holy Union I expect the Radiant Church isn’t willing to retreat any further” Linley chuckled Linley and the knights uarded pass, and were quickly allowed in

This guarded pass was to defend against ical beasts

Naturally, no humans would be denied entry

“Second Prince, shall we rest here?” Linley seereed upon places that my royal father and I settled upon We still have around three hundred kilo at Hess City If we hurry, we should be able to reach there by nightfall today” Shaq said unguardedly

“Hess City!”

Linley memorized this name “Clayde Hess City shall be where you die”

……

They continued their journey Linley, Shaq, and the thirty hts kicked up a trail of dust in their wake By the time Linley and Shaq saw the city of Hess, the sun was just setting, casting its red glow upon the earth

“Hess City, the capital of the Kingdohtly s the silhouettes of the enormous city walls, Linley couldn’t help but be awed

How iant walls?

Arriving at the gate to Hess City, Linley and his squad found their way barred

“Disuard of Hess City ordered in a loud voice

“Why should we disuard saw that Shaq’s group was definitely an extraordinary one, and thus answered the question “His Highness has ordered that no horses may be ridden within the boundaries of Hess City Everyone, right now Hess City is overfloith people There’s sih space to ride horses It’s best if you all dismount”

“Let’s dismount” Linley smiled at Shaq

Shaq nodded

Linley and Shaq could both idoms and the six destroyed duchies Most likelynear Hess City had fled here as well Those two kingdoms and six duchies possessed a combined population of hundreds of millions

Even if 90 had died, millions would have survived And of course, there had been no s within hundreds of kilodom of Hess, so virtually all of the people who lived in that area had survived

“Sointo Hess City, Linley and Shaq and the knights were all shocked Hess City normally could only accommodate at ht now there were at least several le street was clogged Even in the city of Fenlai, Linley had never seen anything like this

“Go find a hotel first, then come back here to pick o reserve a hotel suite

“Lord Linley, let’s go eat dinner first” Shaq said with a laugh, and of course Linley wouldn’t refuse Shaq immediately led Linley and the others to a nearby restaurant The bottom floor of this restaurant was full, but there were still dining rooms available in the upper levels

“Three roonanimously

But when they sat down and Shaq saw the prices on the rabbed the nearest waiter and shouted angrily, “Do you take me for an idiot? With prices like this, a table of dishes would cost several thousand gold coins You are trying to cheat h class one, Shaq, as a prince, had naturally been to h class restaurants
