The Kingdom of a Thousand Lakes.
An island in the Auland Archipelago.
No one knew that under one of the countless islands, there was one of the sacred grounds controlled by the Palace of Darkness.
"It's hard to imagine, isn't it? The Kingdom of a Thousand Lakes is actually the most incorruptible country in the world. Many self-proclaimed civilized countries have been advocating for a long time, but they can do it effortlessly here! "Fox smiled as she introduced the place to Lin Dong.
"It's impossible in our country because of population and income issues. Of course, the most important thing is the complex thinking and communication." Lin Dong felt that it was impossible for rabbits to be incorruptible. Since ancient times, they had been purging corrupt officials. However, corrupt officials were more tenacious than cockroaches. Perhaps some people would use Hong Kong or Singapore as an example and say that corrupt officials were extinct. However, no matter how powerful the ICAC was, it could not stop corruption. It could only be said that there were fewer, more hidden, or less rampant corruption.
According to a very realistic theory.
If officials could not be corrupt, what was the point of being an official?
It was to be superior to others. It was to be rich. If an official really wanted to learn from Hai Rui, they would not be able to stay in the Kingdom of a Thousand Lakes for even a day. They might even suffer from depression and commit suicide with 11 stabs. If that did not kill them, they might commit suicide by jumping off a building!
Fox smiled. She had long heard about the complexity of the rabbit circle. Indeed, the people in Britain were not as murky as the rabbits.
However, that did not mean that the people in Britain were incorruptible.
Sometimes, the word corruption was too harsh.
It could be changed a little.
For example, donations.
The bald eagles were so smart that they directly classified the act of collecting money as legal lobbying. It looked much more civilized this way.
"If you didn't plunder so much gold, silver, and other resources from all over the world, could you really create such a high national income with your lazy workers? Do you really have such a good standard of living? In other words, you are lying on the earth sucking blood and using other people's nutrients to nourish yourselves! "Enoko Kazama, the leech girl, sneered.
"Miss Fujen, you must have heard that I had a falling out with the Plantagenet Dynasty, so you've become bolder!" Fox was not angry. Instead, she clapped her hands, "You're right. However, the law of the jungle has always been the law of the world. You mud bombs also did such dirty things in the past, so don't blame each other! "
"They are them. It has nothing to do with me. I'm just a pitiful person who has no choice!" Enoko Kazama didn't continue to dwell on the previous topic.
"Aiya, do you want to say that to gain some sympathy in front of Mr. Wood?" Fox asked with a smile on his face.
"In this aspect, how can I compare to you!" Enoko Kazama was not someone who was easy to deal with.
"It seems that Fuuma-san's combat strength has increased quite rapidly. I remember that you didn't dare to speak to me like this before." Fox carefully sized up Enoko Kazama and found that this leech girl was at least three times stronger than she was two months ago.
"I've always spoken like this. It's just that Miss Fox used to be so high and mighty that she couldn't hear the voices of the people below her!" Enoko Kazama sneered and retorted.
"It doesn't matter. After falling from my high and mighty position, I finally saw the truth of certain things. I believe that it's not too late. Fuuma-san, you're really fast. You actually arrived at the Auland Islands before us. Don't tell me that you're the representative sent by the Plantagenet Dynasty? If that's the case, then congratulations! " Fox was all smiles. He didn't seem to be angry at all. His expression was so friendly that it was like two classmates who hadn't seen each other for a long time talking about the past.
"Right now, I'm no longer related to the Plantagenet Dynasty. I came here as an individual!" Enoko Kazama replied.
"You joined the Dark Palace?" Fox was slightly surprised.
"No, I rejected them. However, I didn't reject their invitation to explore the Sacred Land!" Enoko Kazama bowed deeply to Lin Dong. Her tone was so respectful that she sounded like a female servant welcoming her master home. "Lord Lin Dong, for the next period of time, I'll be one of your team members. If you give me any orders during the exploration, I'll obey them! Captain Lin Dong, please guide me! "
"I'm the captain?" Lin Dong just realized that he had been promoted. Even though the position of captain wasn't a high-ranking official, he was still a captain!
Looking at Enoko Kazama's attitude.
It seemed like she wasn't too averse to the unspoken rules.
Lin Dong suddenly realized that being an official was truly a good thing. Just being a captain was enough to send girls to his doorstep. If he were to become an even higher official, wouldn't there be a long line of girls?
When Fox saw Lin Dong's expression, she couldn't help but laugh. "I believe that the Dark Palace won't make the mistake of the Mayflower Formation and treat a real captain as a prisoner. So, if you're not the captain, then who is? Mr Wood, please don't tell me that you like this type or this style. If that's the case, then I can also change into a Gothic maid costume! "
After she finished speaking, her electric eyes released a million-volt current on Lin Dong.
Lin Dong coughed.
Looking at the gossipy expressions of Griffon and Big Ivan, he quickly put on the appearance of a gentleman. "I'll definitely reject the temptation of the uniforms of maids, stewardesses, nurses, policemen, and so on … I don't even like princess dresses, sailor suits, knight armor, and all kinds of crab suits!"
"Are you sure?" Fox tilted her head and looked at Lin Dong.
"Of course, please call me a gentleman!" Lin Dong was a little guilty, but the expression on his face was very sacred.
"For tomorrow's expedition, what do you think about me wearing a leather tights?" Fox indicated that the tights would not affect her movements.
"This is your freedom. I personally respect other people's freedom and choices!" Lin Dong imagined the appearance of the leather tights, combined with Fox's hot body. If the color was fiery red, it was estimated that the entire Holy Land of Darkness would be set ablaze. Glancing at Enoko Kazama, the leech girl, she immediately lowered her head and bent down, revealing the deep ravine on her chest. "Captain, tomorrow I'll change into a ninja costume and scout ahead …"
Griffon was very envious.
However.
This was a benefit unique to the Kami.
They could not count on it. If any blind guy dared to fantasize about it, it was estimated that these two terrible women who fought openly and secretly would join forces to beat them up!
The powerful Fox was not to be trifled with, and the leech-eating Enoko Kazama was also not to be trifled with.
Therefore, if one wanted to be safe, it was better to obediently be one's own team member.
Besides, the Darkness Palace already had safety measures. Once they came here, there would definitely be no shortage of women. Why would they risk their lives to fantasize!
Lin Dong stayed in Mary Port for a night. As the fight between the two women was almost white-hot, the Darkness Palace gave up on the plan to arrange a female guide for him. On the other hand, Griffon and the others comfortably enjoyed the benefits and hospitality given to them by the Darkness Palace. They did not get up until noon the next day. The opening of the Holy Land required strict conditions and a long time. Fortunately, Lin Dong did not need to worry about all this. He only needed to adjust for the time difference and recover.
The Black Swan Prince Redondo and the Herculean Barton came over. Although they were in their own territory, they were all very respectful. Even Phillip said that Lin Dong was their leader. It was a stark contrast to the previously vigilant Mayflower Formation.
"Mr Wood, we hope to go in for training. Can you bring us along?" Jonathan, the most outstanding of the younger generation, ran over and bowed.
"Because I don't know the situation, I can't guarantee your safety. However, if it's within my power, I will not stand idly by. If you want to go in, of course, you can, but you have to be mentally prepared. "Lin Dong nodded. Since they were from the Darkness Palace, it would be good for a few more people to go in and check out the situation.
"Thank you very much, Mr Wood. We will also work hard!" Remiga, who was behind, nodded excitedly.
"So will we!" Sergey Aliev, the "trumpeter" from the Eastern European Grand Alliance, formally expressed his position at the signal of Big Ivan. He was a little introverted, but Big Ivan was training him, hoping that he would grow up and become independent in the future.
"Fortunately, we made it! Please forgive us, Mr Wood. There was a little accident on the plane we took. We should have arrived last night! Ah, we had a good rest and were not tired. Yes, I can strangle a few lions now! " The Windmill Knight Don Quixote, the little donkey Panza, Master Bach, and the other Teutonic Knights arrived. William's strength was not enough. He did not have the experience of traveling the underground world like Big Ivan and the spirit of risking his life, so he chose to stay in Mary Port and wait for everyone to return safely, leaving the exploration task to Griffon and Don Quixote.
"The people of the Plantagenet Dynasty are not coming?" Phillip was a little surprised. They had clearly agreed on it. Why was there no movement until now?
"Don't wait for them. Our people are enough!" Big Ivan brought a group of people, but apart from Sergei and Aliev, the others were mercenaries from the Eastern European Grand Alliance or other organizations. They were not genetic warriors who had undergone genetic experiments.
Big Ivan knew that the expedition needed cannon fodder, so he was very proactive in preparing a group of people.
Moreover, the mercenaries he brought were quite strong.
With the people prepared by the Dark Temple, the strength of the expedition team was indeed enough.
Phillip looked at the time. "There are still ten minutes before the agreed time. If they don't come in ten minutes, then we will regard it as giving up!"
About five minutes later.
More than twenty men and women in large cloaks came from afar.
Fox looked carefully and exclaimed, "The person who came is Bloody Mary of the Three Lions? Why is this woman here? "
Phillip's expression changed slightly. "Not only did Bloody Mary and Admiral Nelson come, but also the mad scientist Parsons! It seems that the Plantagenet Dynasty is taking this expedition very seriously. Now, I'm starting to look forward to who the Eye of God and the Temple Knights will send to explore the Holy Land! Ah, they're here. Hahaha, just as I expected, they're really 'old friends' … "
