Chapter 1044: On the eve of landing

"Mei'er, I hope you can go back to your hometown. This is the long-cherished wish of your father and your grandfather." Li Xuanbai and Mrs. Li were wearing a vermilion-covered robe and light makeup. She seemed to be twenty years younger, standing next to her daughter Li Huamei like a sister.

Today is a big day in Wangxiangcheng. Those sent by the imperial court did not break their promises. They have issued a formal notice in Wangxiangcheng. From now on, all those who want to leave Wangxiangcheng and return to their hometown can go to the city lord's mansion to sign. After the first batch of immigrants arrive, they can take the return ship to their hometown.

The residents of Wangxiangcheng are already the descendants of the third or even the fourth generation of immigrants. Their ancestors have been bound by the "Yan Mo" for generations, and they have never even experienced the scenery in the south, let alone the hometown thousands of miles away.

Generations of Wangxiangcheng residents have spent one bitter day after another relying on their fantasy of their hometown. Now they finally have the opportunity to go home.

The New Dynasty in the Loess District promised that all descendants who returned from the far south could obtain three acres of land, a cow or similar livestock, and a house, plus enough reserved food for two years as compensation in the Song Empire.

In addition, all descendants of the survivors will receive a three-year tax-free discount. Of course, the descendants of immigrants who stay in Wangxiangcheng will receive greater preferential policies.

"I want to stay here, Mother." Li Huamei wore a not-so-fitting naval officer uniform. This outfit was given to her by a captain of the 'Golden Fleet', as a reward for her hard work during this period.

Li Huamei is not very good at needlework. Her clothes that were originally much looser were slit up by her, but Li Xuanbai could still see the brilliant light like stars in her daughter's eyes.

"I want to stay here! I like the feeling of warships galloping on the sea, I like the waves being split by the bow of the ship, I like the sound of cannons firing, I like the smell of gunpowder burning!" Li Huamei found the warship she served in the distance in the port, and showed a bright smile: "I want to stay here, I want to become a captain, commanding my own warship to ride the wind and waves!"

"Then stay, stay here. I am the general's daughter, you are my daughter. If the men of the Li family are gone, you and I have to carry the banner of the Li family." Li Xuanbai showed a bright smile: "Wangxiangcheng was established by our Li family. We spent forty years to protect this city and its residents. Now it's our turn to collect compensation from this land!"

Goethrim City calmed down again, the whole city was filled with the breath of death. The neighbor who had dinner with him yesterday might have been taken away by the guards today and never seen again.

Houses were isolated on each street, soldiers in full-covered armor rushed in and dumped kerosene, using flames to clear out the misunderstandings hidden in the basement.

Black smoke rolled away, like a crow hovering over the corpse, lingering over Gothrim City.

"Diana, the situation in Far South is getting more and more dangerous. I hope you can get back to me." The Amazon Queen had secretly sneaked into Gothrim City, and she was standing in the bedroom of the Lord's Mansion in Gothrim City.

One of Queen Hippolyta's arms turned black, and a red luster could be seen in the deep bone scars, like an undestroyed embers.

"Are you injured?" Elizabeth asked with concern, and looked around and closed the door of the boudoir: "Are you okay, mom? Are you okay in the tribe?"

Elizabeth's Lord's Mansion had experienced a fierce battle before. The broken carpet could not cover up the bloodstains below, and the walls were covered with scars, which seemed a little dilapidated.

The corpses here have been dragged away for less than forty-eight hours, and there are also several particularly disgusting corpses that are extremely stubborn. Several extraordinary guards finally had to demolish the floor and the walls to completely remove the pollution here.

"It's okay, Diana, a little bit of injury will not take long to recover." Queen Hippolyta comforted her daughter: "Those chaotic demons are more powerful than I thought, and there are more numbers. The stable life before has passed, and we must be prepared to face a more severe war!"

"Of course, mom, those Cyris have said this a long time ago." Miss Elizabeth remembered the Marines who fought to the death and did not allow others to retreat: "They were used to fighting chaos when they were in their hometown. We had too much to learn. Far South is a backward place. We must open our eyes to adapt to the new rules."

"Are you going to stand on the side of the Seris?" Hippolyta frowned: "I've been to their city, and it's really amazing, but they're too small."

"I'm already standing on their side. Mom, the church and the coalition forces of the old continent were defeated by my army." Miss Fox sensitively noticed her mother's strangeness: "Since ancient times, two-faced and three-knit fences have not ended well. I have already placed a bet and will not leave the market halfway."

"And I believe that the Cyris empire will soon send more soldiers to the Far South, and I believe that the demon hunter will not lie to me." Elizabeth Prince's eyes were sharp, even causing the Amazon Queen to lower her head.

"It's just another choice, after all, it's not the war we want." Hippolyta quickly returned to his former majesty and said with a hint of relief that he had grown up with a child: "But I support your decision, Diana, I will always stand with you."

"Don't do it yourself, mom, we should play a collaborator who is forced to do so, rather than a vanguard with a firm stance." Miss Fox's eyes turned and realized that a lobbyist from the Old World went to the Amazon tribe, so today's conversation: "I will find a chance to let Anahat accidentally leak this news to the Seris Assassin, and they will do other things for us."

This time Queen Hippolyta finally began to face her daughter. Miss Fox's level in the political game was obviously much higher than she expected, which made her wonder if this was the blood talent of the Prince family.

"Don't carry too many things you shouldn't carry, Diana, you will always be the princess of the Amazons." The Queen of Amazon touched Elizabeth's head: "Don't forget that your mother is the most powerful Amazon warrior. We don't need to bow down or indulge in conspiracy. This world still speaks with strength."
