Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 373 The Cardinal Archbishop Who Has Never Seen the World

When the iron-clad warship that had just dried up came oncoming, it began to slow down from a distance, so the speed did not seem outstanding.

Now that the ironclad warship accelerated away, even Adrian had heard about its astonishing speed, but he couldn't help admiring it at this moment.

"Quick! It's so fast! I've never seen such a fast boat!"

Ke Luodi's eyes flickered, he stared at the armored warship and said, "That damn profiteer Benjamin didn't lie to us, the big iron armored warship is really terribly fast!"

Monila pointed to the thick smoke rising from the iron-clad warship and said in surprise, "Jack, is that the thick smoke from the steam engine burning coal that Benjamin mentioned?"

Jack nodded heavily: "That's right, it's the steam engine, and the steam train is shocking. It's so long, it's like a giant steel dragon..."

Saying that, Jack's expression became agitated.

"And hot air balloons, oh my god, that's amazing, going up into the sky..."

As soon as he spoke, he was interrupted by the impatient Adrian.

"Okay, you can leave."

Jack's performance made him feel a little unhappy. To be precise, it was the huge gap between the advanced Daqian and the backward West that made him feel a little unhappy.

"Yes, my lord bishop."

Jack stepped back obediently.

Soon, under the guidance of the armored warship, the ship docked at Li Changfeng's newly built pier. The border garrison boarded the ship and found nothing unusual, so they let it go as a merchant.

They didn't know Adrian's identity, but were just a little curious about his unique attire.

After a short rest for a day, the ship headed for the capital under the control of Jack.

The big boat went upstream at an extremely slow speed.

But Adrian doesn't care, and he often lands at the pier along the way to learn about the local customs.

The more he learned about Adrian, the more he yearned for the vast land, rich resources, and prosperity, and the more impatient he was to preach.

In this way, it took them more than ten days to arrive near the pier of the Grand Canal in Beijing.

Adrian looked at the majestic capital vaguely visible in the distance, his eyes full of yearning.

Woohoo! !
At this moment, the siren sounded, and Jack pointed to the steam train on the shore in the distance and shouted.

"Steam train! Look, the steam train is passing by!"

Adrian, Korodi, and Monila followed the figure and were stunned on the spot.

"This...is a steam train?!"

"It's so fast. Even the fastest horse in the Holy See is not even half as fast as it!"

"It's long! It's so long! It's amazing how many people it can pull in this time!"

Seeing the shocked expressions of Adrian, Ke Luodi and Monilla, Jack couldn't help feeling a sense of pride in his heart.

Ah!
Is this the cardinal archbishop who never regards him as a human being and whose status is respected?
These are the two arrogant knights who never looked at him directly?
What distinguishes them from country folk who have never seen the world?
click... click...

The steam train drove a long way, and the three of them were still watching in a daze, their expressions still shocked.

At this moment, Jack pointed to the sky again, with a hint of pride in his tone: "Oh, dear Cardinal Archbishop, you are really lucky today. Look up and take a look. The Daqian Air Force happens to be here today." train!"

Adrian had no time for the offense in Jack's words. At this moment, all his attention was on the hot air balloon flying in the sky, his mouth was almost open enough to stuff a fist in, and his eyeballs almost popped out.

Korodi and Monilla were no better.

Jack said with some pride: "I was fortunate enough to follow Benjamin on a hot-air balloon ride under the arrangement of His Highness the Ninth Prince. It was such a wonderful feeling! I even saw an eagle flying under the hot-air balloon!" Ai Derian finally recovered from the shock and exclaimed: "Is this a hot air balloon? It's really amazing that it can really fly in the sky!"

Ke Luodi looked incredible: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I couldn't believe it was true!"

Monila sighed: "I don't know who invented such a magical thing, it's simply a talent!"

Jack bowed slightly and said with a smile: "These are all invented by His Royal Highness Ninth Prince. Oh, speaking of His Highness Ninth Prince, I really miss him a little bit. He is really a generous, friendly and hospitable nobleman!"

Adrian closed his eyes and asked, "Do you know His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince?"

Jack proudly said: "Of course! I also had dinner with him, we have a very deep friendship!"

Jack was clearly bragging. Li Changfeng had a good relationship with Benjamin, but that was only a business partner relationship, let alone a friendship with him.

However, his bragging still bluffed Adrian, and he said with piercing eyes: "What is the status of the Ninth Prince in Daqian?"

Jack said firmly: "In Daqian, apart from His Majesty the Emperor, he has the highest status and the most wealth. There is nothing he can't do!"

Adrian nodded secretly, becoming very interested in Li Changfeng.

Soon, the big ship docked.

Adrian took Ke Luodi, Monila and Jack ashore, which attracted the attention of the surrounding people.

"Hehe, another Fanbang is here."

"It should be a caravan. His Highness the Ninth Prince can make a lot of money again."

"I don't think so. You see, they only have one boat, how much cargo can they pull?"

"This statement is reasonable, it is probably a poor caravan."

"The old man in the lead is wearing strange clothes."

"Foreigners, it's normal."

"..."

A large number of people pointed at them and discussed, while Adrian and others stared with eyes wide open, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

That's all about the bike, they've seen it before.

What shocked them now was that a big man passed by on a motorcycle, stopped in front of them, looked at them curiously, and then disappeared in a flash.

"Oh Maga! Oh Maga!"

"God, what is this?!"

"I can't believe my eyes, Jack, tell me what the hell is this?!"

When Jack came last time, there was no motorcycle in Daqian, he had never seen it before, how did he know what it was?
He was also shocked: "I don't know, I haven't seen this thing when I came last time!"

The Dagan people who were watching around couldn't help laughing when they saw their shocked faces.

"A countryman who has never seen the world."

"It's just a motorcycle. Look how rare they are."

"Normal, Fanbang is so far behind, he can't even eat good salt and has to buy it from His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince."

"Hey, these people are so pitiful. If they see His Highness's electric light, they don't know how frightened they will be."
