Chapter 8 Residing in the Imperial City
……
The heads of various departments in the Dragon Kingdom stated their respective conditions.
Lin Sheng nodded in satisfaction.
Although he didn't know much about this "Dragon Kingdom" at that time, including its economy and national strength.
But based on these people's identities and their tone of voice...
He could clearly feel it.
Dragon Kingdom, you're very sincere!
However, what he needs most right now is magic!
Lin Sheng nodded in satisfaction, then waved his hand.
This move caused Fang Chongshan and others to frown.
This is because they feel it's not enough!
"hiss!"
By taking these things out, the Dragon Kingdom has already suffered a severe blow.
As long as the Holy Lord can resist the monster!
Fang Chongshan gritted his teeth and continued, "Your Majesty, if you feel it's not enough, we can add more..."
Lin Sheng spread his hands, saying helplessly.
"You've misunderstood; it's not that it's not enough."
"The benefits are too numerous and the conditions too generous!"
"Besides, am I really that greedy?"
"what?"
"what?"
Those present were all high-ranking officials of the Dragon Kingdom, and had seen many storms and come into contact with many different mythical beasts.
But this time, the Holy Lord truly shocked them.
There are even mythical beasts complaining that the conditions are too good?
Is he really a demon?
More vicious and cunning than a ferocious beast?
Fang Chongshan looked at his daughter standing beside the Holy Lord, his eyes blinking questioningly.
Is the Holy Lord good or bad?
Fang Mingyue rolled her eyes.
The Holy Lord is an A-level expert!
His father actually believed that a mere superpower gained by an ordinary human after eating a Class C monster could be so powerful...
Lin Sheng spoke up.
"What I need most right now is the full support of the Magic Research Bureau and the Blue Star Summoning System Research Bureau."
"I need to study magic, the power of faith, monster soul crystals, and so on, to enhance my strength."
"At the same time, don't worry, I will do my best to fight off the monsters!"
"We'll just have to make do with what we have, whether it's accommodation, food, or other necessities."
Lin Sheng spoke frankly and openly, and his words were actually quite sincere.
That's it?
Lin Sheng's words almost moved the group of bigwigs to tears of gratitude.
Who said he was a demon?!
Even sacred beasts aren't this impressive!
And they even said that the accommodation and food were just "make do"?
They had heard that a giant serpent from the neighboring Sakura Kingdom was vying for a place in the royal palace and demanding hundreds of beautiful women to serve him.
I don't know if it eats people, but Japan certainly won't report it.
Fang Chongshan hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Your Majesty, are you really a demon?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Sheng smiled.
"I could be the one."
"Um?"
"Coming right away, just a moment."
Immediately, Lin Sheng skillfully searched for the darkness within his heart and then released demonic energy.
The "approachable" Holy Lord's aura suddenly changed, and a heavy sense of oppression came over everyone, almost suffocating them.
And then there are the Holy Lord's eyes, crimson and evil, rife with murderous intent. Just looking into those eyes makes one's mind wander with wild thoughts.
This made Fang Chongshan and the others break out in a cold sweat.
"Alright, alright."
Fang Mingyue spoke with difficulty.
The demonic aura is still too terrifying for mortals; even a few breaths are enough for them to withstand it.
"It doesn't have to be that."
Lin Sheng had already mastered the art of controlling his power, and immediately withdrew all his demonic energy after saying those words.
The eyes were still red, but staring at them no longer bothered me.
Everyone was still shaken and it took them a while to recover.
"So...can you control it at any time?"
At this moment, Qin Fangzhou, the director of the Spacetime Detection Bureau, asked a question.
"Of course, that was just now!"
So, you mean—?!
Lin Sheng's answer made the eyes of the bigwigs light up. They looked at each other, and all of them saw the excitement in their eyes.
I've struck gold!
This all makes sense.
The Holy Lord slew the pterosaur and left a roasted wing for the people of Chang'an, without making exorbitant demands.
Love isn't a demon.
Now, in their eyes, the Holy Lord is even more sacred than a sacred beast.
It's practically the dream beast!
"Cough cough."
Fang Chongshan coughed, stopping his excitement, and then said to Lin Sheng.
"Since Your Majesty is interested in the Magic Bureau and the Blue Summoning Bureau, then please stay in Kyoto. We have arranged for you to stay in the imperial palace from two hundred years ago."
"We have also done a lot of maintenance over the years, and we hope you are satisfied with your stay."
Lin Sheng said the accommodations were just so-so, but they didn't take it seriously.
The introduction of the Holy Lord said that He was once an emperor, so the people discussed letting Him live in the palace.
"The Kyoto Magic Research Bureau and the Blue Summoning Bureau are among the world's leading forces, and I believe they will certainly satisfy His Majesty."
"Next, I will have the Blue Summoning Bureau and the Demon Research Bureau prepare the materials, and then I will invite you over tomorrow."
"What do you think of this arrangement?"
Lin Sheng nodded. "I'm very satisfied."
At the same time, there was a faint sense of anticipation.
What is the palace where I live really like?
A group of powerful figures escorted Lin Sheng as they made their way to the core of the Kyoto base.
That is where the ancient imperial city was located.
Lin Sheng enjoyed a special passage and arrived at the destination in less than 20 minutes, a distance of 50 kilometers.
Although the speed of the Holy Lord far exceeded that of the car.
But he still chose to sit in the car; it felt different, as if he had returned to the feeling of taking a car ride in his past life.
And you can also enjoy the scenery of Kyoto.
To be fair, this base is no different from the city; it still has high-rise buildings, residential areas, and a CBD.
Forbidden City.
This place has a long history, having served as the imperial city of the ancient Dragon Kingdom for hundreds of years.
Among them are many rare and exotic species, as well as exquisite garden rockeries.
On this day, the bigwigs accompanied Lin Sheng on a tour of the imperial city.
Before leaving, he handed Lin Sheng a simple communication device.
Just give me a call whenever I need you!
At this moment, the sun is setting.
Lin Sheng stood in the imperial city and admired it carefully.
The palace walls are vermilion, the bricks and tiles are glazed, the beams and painted rafters are carved, and the whole place is full of antique charm.
The environment is really nice.
Lin Sheng walked on.
He returned to the great palace.
The broken-winged pterosaur was also brought over when Lin Sheng and the other big shots toured the imperial city.
Not a single ounce of meat was missing.
Lin Sheng was very satisfied.
He immediately summoned the service staff inside the imperial city.
Ask them to prepare some seasonings and tableware.
Less than half an hour.
Cilantro, cumin, chili, sesame seeds, pepper, chopped green onions, minced garlic...
"Oh? There's also houttuynia cordata? I can eat that!"
Lin Sheng was somewhat delighted, as he used to eat Chengdu hot pot frequently in his previous life.
They also brought over tableware; chopsticks, knives, and forks that were almost as tall as a person, delivered by forklift.
Lin Sheng used his laser eyes to cut off a piece of wing meat, then breathed flames to burn off the feathers, and then wrapped it up and slowly roasted it.
Until it's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, emitting a wonderful aroma of meat.
"Mission accomplished!"
Lin Sheng turned to the staff and said, "It's not that I don't want you to eat it, it's a B-grade monster, you can't eat it!"
After saying that, Lin Sheng used a knife and fork to stab the piece of meat, sprinkled it with various seasonings, and then mixed in cilantro and lettuce.
Swallow the last bite!
