I'm the King Of Technology

Chapter 772 - Curious Visitors

In a blink of an eye, 2 more weeks had gone by swiftly with the entire Baymard getting busy as usual.

It was now the 2nd week of August, and everyone was preparing for some major occasion.

.

--Shanks Road, Baymard--

.

The air was hot, the trees were vibrant, the flowers were bright and the atmosphere was cheerful.

It was indeed a wonderful sunny day.

'Din! Din! Din!'

'Tucup! Tucup! Tucup!'

On Shanks road, several streams of carriages, horses and people could be seen on all road lanes and sidewalks.

Some were leaving while others were heading towards Baymard's Capital city instead.

going

"My goodness Kalu, these roads really make one comfortable.

Ever since we left Riverdale city, we haven't even encountered any bump on the road.

It's like magic!"

"Magic?

It's more like a heavenly creation!

Just look at how organized the roads are now?

With this setup, everyone can go to their destination without bumping into others.

The person who came up with this must be a genius.

His majesty Landon Barn sure is something else."

"Hmhm...

Let's not even talk about the setup, just look at the road's smooth black layer.

Do you know what materials were used to make it?

Even the road signs and sideways are beautifully done and positioned smartly.

So this can only mean that the road's creator must be an unparalleled scholar!"

"Wait!... Baron Jacob, weren't you a former Baron in Baymard?

Was this how the roads used to be?

How can it be this good?"

"Yeah!

I'm also curious as well."

Within a luxurious carriage, 3 Barons were currently looking at their friend curiously.

If the road leading to Baymard's Capital city was this good, then what more of the city itself?

They all looked at their friend inquisitively.

.

As for Baron Jacob, he too was surprised as well.

One has to know that he used to be a Baron in Baymard.

At that time, he and the other nobles made extra money on the side from selling the ores to Santa.

The money they got from the empire was never enough for them, who tried to expand their power.

But with the ores, they became rich secretly.

Of course, all that changed when they received letters from the Capital, saying that their duty posts had changed.

One had to know that a few months before Landon was 15, they received letters telling them to pack their things and head out to other cities and towns as arranged.

They were to settle in those areas and assist the town or city lords in whatever way they could.

In other words, if they were to continue staying after knowing that the abandoned prince was coming over, then they would be skinned alive by Alec.

So of course he left alongside several others.

But, while some were posted around the western territories, others got sent far away to the Eastern territories.

And unfortunately, he was one of them.

The journey was a long and boring one.

But at least he was posted to a little town that had people within title rank.

So he wasn't bullied at all and had even made me new friends.

Without a doubt, if he had gone to a large city like others, they would have been tossed around by those earls, viscounts, City lords and whatnot.

In a way compared to the rest, he got the better deal out of everyone else.

.

As for the changes in Baymard, he too had been shocked stupid when he heard about it back in his town.

And when he saw the many picture booklets and objects from merchants, he couldn't believe his eyes.

The newspapers and so many pictures made him deny that it wasn't the same Baymard that he knew of.

How?

How did they do it?

Well, the answer laid with the abandoned prince that everyone looked down on.

He even heard that these Baymardians were paid way better and all lived luxurious and glamorous lives.

Damn!

If he had known, he would've never left Baymard.

But then again, his majesty Alec would definitely have his head for it.

Alec Barn was still king so it was always best to tread carefully.

Anyway, he had been travelling for 7 and a half months now from Arcadina's eastern territory.

He truly wanted to see for himself how different Baymard was.

At first, he thought that people over hype the wonders in Baymard and might have even painted those images in books to be somewhat exaggerated.

But just from the roads leading to Baymard's Capital city, he could already see its glory.

.

Jacob helplessly looked at his brothers who were all looking at him with burning gazes.

"Brothers, I'm being serious.

When I left, the roads were still filled with potholes and cracks.

It was never like this."

"Are you sure?"

"Of course!

I swear on my ancestors that it's completely true."

"Hmph!

Well... We will believe you for now.

That said, what about your estate there?"

"Yeah!

Didn't you say that you had an estate within the upper region?

Do you think that it would still be available after all these years?

I think we should just check in to those hotel things that we've been hearing all about.

After checking in, we can go take a look at the estate.

Who knows, maybe it was left all alone over the years."

Jacob nodded: "I agree! Let's do that instead before figuring things out later. Anyway, I didn't really care about the estate since I had considered it as lost property. Have you all forgotten why we came?"

"Of course not!

Why would we want to start trouble when we came here with good intentions?

Finally, we get to see this city of miracles.

So how can we mess it up?"

Everyone tastefully nodded in agreement.

They were just small Barons within Arcadina.

So how could they come to another empire to cause trouble?

If they did so, Alec wouldn't even bother sending people to save them, talk less of avenging them.

So they dared not.

"Hahahhahahahaha!

Finally, I'll see the magical light thing that everyone talks about.

"For me, I want to see the magical cold box that keeps food intact.

I heard that it can freeze anything even in this hot summer.

It's definitely the most exciting thing to see."

"Puih!

Are you stupid?

How can that be the best?

Haven't you heard of the moving carriages called trains?

I heard that they're so big that they can keep hundreds of people in them at once."

"What?

Aren't you mistaken?

I heard that they can keep a total of 5 people.

So how did it become a hundred?"

"You local champion.

You're talking about a car and not a train."

"Who are you calling a local champion?

Car, train, whatever, what's the difference anyway?

You're just saying that to make yourself seem more knowledgeable.

Who are you trying to fool?"

"Idiot!"
