Chapter 193 Before ascending the throne
"How many teleportation arrays need to be activated next?"
Chen Lin asked casually. The person sitting diagonally in front immediately took out his mobile phone, took a brief look and said: "There are more than 200 at present, senior colonel."
"According to our current progress, how long will it take to solve everything?"
"Based on the fact that you need to return to the Hongshan base midway, it will take us about 10-15 days to complete everything."
Chen Lin listened to the orderly's words, hesitated, and then nodded.
Activating teleportation arrays for all the heavy industry project teams and a large number of mining areas in the outposts in the Coman Empire is indeed a heavy task, but according to normal efficiency, five or six days will be enough.
But in the middle of the process, Chen Lin still needs to rotate the opening of the two world portals every three days. Adding this time to it, half a month is considered a conservative estimate.
The Suzaku-[-] aircraft has now undergone several rounds of redesigns and interior decoration modifications. Chen Lin has flown on this kind of supersonic aircraft many times, and his body has quickly adapted to the impact of the short-term speed increase. At this time, he There is no longer any discomfort when riding on the Suzaku-[-] aircraft.
I quickly fell in love with this kind of thing.
It is a pity that with the further popularization of ground transmission arrays, the employment opportunities of this type of aircraft specifically used for supersonic transfer will be greatly reduced. By then, I am afraid that only people with special needs will be able to fly.
Chen Lin leaned back slightly. He was looking forward to the enthronement ceremony of Princess Irina, but based on time, he happened to be returning to the Red Mountain base at that time due to the rotation of the portal.
It made Chen Lin feel quite regretful.
The destination of the Suzaku aircraft this time was the outpost, and all the people were delivered in less than 10 minutes. When Chen Lin jumped off the aircraft, the orderly sent the latest news - the one he designated in the Great Library The entire book collection has been completed.
"It's pretty fast!"
Chen Lin smiled and nodded, and immediately said that he would go directly to the document room to look through the scanned documents. However, after taking two steps, he changed his mind.
"It's better to activate the teleportation array first. It's too late to wait until I return to Hongshan Base to take a closer look."
After returning to Hongshan, he had nothing else to do, so it was a good time to look for information.
The guards on the side looked at each other, a little helpless towards the important person they wanted to protect. This idea changed too quickly! ……
At night, Selia City.
Princess Irina was currently in the palace choosing the attire needed for the enthronement ceremony the day after tomorrow. There were hundreds of maids in front of her, groups of five holding various attires. They presented the attires in their hands for Irina to choose from. , but it’s a pity that after more than a dozen outfits, Irina still hasn’t chosen any of them.
"The materials of these clothes...are all made of silk threads from the empire?"
Irina frowned and looked at the so-called royal attire in front of her, and said, "Were these the things that the nobles of the empire wore before?"
The maid nodded in fear. The materials of the Coman Empire's costumes have not changed in decades. They are all woven with silk threads produced in Noibera City. These silk threads are basically inaccessible to the common people of the empire. No, it’s only for the Koman royal family.
But by asking the princess like this, doesn't it mean that she is dissatisfied with the material of these clothes? The maids were extremely panicked at this time. They all knew recently that in order to ascend to the throne, the former princess Irina arrested those who opposed her in the city, killed those royal family members and nobles who resisted her, and eliminated a large number of the original people in Selia City. The remnants of the nobles, and their bloody methods make many people feel fear just by hearing the name of the princess! Princess Irina held her forehead and sighed, then waved directly to the female knight of the bodyguard group beside her. "Take my token and go to the outpost mall opened in the city."
The female knight looked at her Royal Highness in confusion, and then heard Irina continue to speak: "Tell the people at the outpost that I need the clothes I need to wear to ascend the throne, and let them prepare it for me."
"Your Highness..."
The female knight knelt in front of her and asked in confusion: "Are you not satisfied with these costumes?"
"satisfy?"
Irina chuckled and said, "How can I be satisfied? The silk threads of these costumes are so bad. It is completely insulting to me to use these materials that have been used decades ago to compile my enthronement costumes."
"I have seen those people in the outpost possess a certain kind of silk thread. The clothes made of those silk threads are extremely gorgeous and extremely light, brightly colored yet extremely elegant... Take my order, go to them, and inform them of my needs. , they won’t refuse.”
The female knight quickly took the order and came out. At this time, the princess no longer had the intention to look at the so-called "dresses" in front of her. She waved her hand to indicate that they should all take their things and leave. The group of maids suddenly let out a long sigh of relief. , carrying these heavy costumes, they lined up one by one and walked out of the house.
But when the two maids in the middle walked out with the team, the two looked at each other, and then suddenly took out a long sword from under the attire they were holding up. The other simply pointed directly at the princess Irina. Bian suddenly threw something! The screams suddenly started. When the other maids saw this, they immediately realized that something was wrong and wanted to run away in a hurry.
The thrown thing burned instantly when it hit the wind. As one of the maids chanted a magic spell, the flames suddenly expanded several times in the air, and turned into the shape of a flame demon. It roared and rushed forward. To Irina! Princess Irina saw such a sudden attack, but she still sat in her original position, motionless, as if she was frightened.
The flame demon roared and rushed in front of her in an instant. There was a hint of excitement on the faces of the two maids. They even thought that the assassination had been successful this time! As a result, the flames roared but dissipated silently in front of the princess Irina.
The two people's eyes were full of surprise and shock. They stared at the princess and noticed that the corners of Irina's mouth were slightly raised.
She stared at the two maids holding long swords at this time, and said coldly: "Now tell me who appointed you here, and I can give you a pleasure."
"Don't talk nonsense to her, kill her!"
"We are here to avenge those who were killed by you!"
The two maids shouted angrily, and rushed towards the princess with long swords in their hands. However, as soon as they took two steps, their whole bodies suddenly went limp, and then they all fell to the ground with two thuds.
The black-armored guards on both sides came out and took control of the situation instantly. Following the black-armored soldiers came out the mage Naya.
Naya nodded slightly to the princess, then pointed at the two immobile maids on the ground and said: "Don't kill them, I have a way to make them talk."
Irina breathed a sigh of relief and signaled the black-armored soldiers to drag up the two maids and hand them over to Naya.
"I will report it after I find out everything. I will deal with all the unstable factors."
"I don't want there to be any objections at the coronation ceremony!"
