Supreme Electromagnetic Tyrant-Chapter 512 - 338: Royal Hunting Ground
Chapter 512: Chapter 338: Royal Hunting Ground
On the afternoon of the 23rd.
While audiences worldwide were still immersed in the excitement of last night’s thrilling competition and fervently discussing it online, Ji Xinghuo had already spent a wonderful night and morning with Zhao Manying. After a brief rest, they boarded the deluxe flying car sent by Princess Sofia.
The flying car’s destination was "Gagra Royal Hunting Ground," located on the east coast of the Black Sea, over 950 kilometers away from Ivangrad.
On the car, Ji Xinghuo observed the mutants accompanying them.
The luxurious size of the flying car was quite large, seating ten people, including the driver and two guards.
They were all members of the "Roman Imperial Guard," tall and robust, wearing silver-gray vintage armor akin to ancient European knights, bearing the emblem of the Imperial Family of the New Roman Empire on their chests and shoulders.
The Roman Imperial Guard was a legion with a history of over two thousand years.
In 2133, when the Steel Emperor renamed the country as the "New Roman Empire," he also renamed the court guards that had followed him in battle for many years to the Roman Imperial Guard.
This mutant legion was on par with the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Man and the All-Purpose Battle Police.
However, they didn’t have unique Professional Templates.
The Roman Imperial Guard was mainly comprised of three professions: the Giant General, the Iron Guard, and the advanced profession formed by the White Knight.
For example, the Giant General and the Iron Guard advanced to become the "Steel War General."
The Giant General and the White Knight advanced to become the "Heavy Armor Knight," and the Iron Guard and the White Knight advanced to the "Steel Knight." freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Their combat style was quite traditional, fighting in armor with a focus on melee combat, supplemented by modern firearms, and also possessed healing capabilities, making them extremely formidable in battle.
Although the average strength of the Roman Imperial Guard was a notch below that of the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Man and the All-Purpose Battle Police, they had one advantage: the vast size of their legion, with over fifty thousand members!
The guards in the car were all elites.
Ji Xinghuo casually glanced at them; one Super Mutant, two high-level mutants, dressed in lightweight armor for everyday life, carrying weapons, sitting straight and silent after boarding, displaying high discipline.
The deluxe flying car crossed the Black Sea, and soon in the distance, they saw a mountain range that spanned thousands of miles along the eastern coast of the Black Sea.
That was the Great Caucasus Mountains, and at the foot of the mountains by the sea was the Gagra Royal Hunting Ground.
The flying car landed in a vast manor.
Ji Xinghuo’s electromagnetic induction spread out, and this manor, spanning hundreds of acres, was extremely luxurious, retaining traces of a sanatorium from over two centuries ago, and employed hundreds of servants, maidservants, and fully-armed Roman Imperial Guards.
The two alighted from the car and were met by Princess Sofia.
"Welcome!"
Princess Sofia stood on the lawn, dressed appropriately in hunting attire, smiling broadly as she said, "Congratulations, Sword Immortal lady, for winning the championship! Your competition last night was so exciting, I’m still savoring it now."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Zhao Manying, having passed the excitement of winning, smiled and shared a light hug with her.
Sofia turned to Ji Xinghuo and greeted, "Mr. Ji."
Ji Xinghuo nodded slightly.
"Please come with me," Sofia said as she led the distinguished guests into the manor, personally arranging for them a top-tier guest room, "Our shooting exchange is scheduled from 2 PM to 5 PM, and there will also be a banquet at 7 PM tonight."
The agenda for the day was all written in the invitation.
Ji Xinghuo asked, "What’s the format of the shooting exchange?"
"It’s mainly casual," Sofia answered with a smile, "Everyone will enter the hunting ground together and use the same weapons to shoot at game. I beg your pardon, but I must go attend to other guests now. If you need anything, the butler will accommodate."
After speaking, she left to greet the other guests.
Ji Xinghuo glanced at the time; there was still over an hour until the start, "Manying, what shall we do next?"
"This manor is quite beautiful, let’s explore it a bit," Zhao Manying suggested.
"Sounds good," Ji Xinghuo smiled, "Let us two commoners witness the decadent life of the feudal Imperial Family."
Zhao Manying gave him a sidelong glance.
There was still a female housekeeper and several maids in the room, and outside were Roman Imperial Guards, but they all pretended not to hear Ji Xinghuo’s comment.
"Please arrange it for us," Zhao Manying said.
The female housekeeper responded respectfully and immediately led them on a tour of the manor named "Abkhazia."
More than two centuries ago, this was one of the most famous sanatoriums by the Black Sea. After being abandoned for several decades, it was renovated and expanded, with over a thousand square kilometers of surrounding land being incorporated to create the Royal Hunting Ground.
The manor was fully equipped, and one magnificent building after another was nestled amongst the greenery, with spacious balconies facing the sea and beautiful views.
Ji Xinghuo and his companion toured for over an hour.
During this time, luxurious flying cars occasionally flew in from the sea and landed in the manor, bringing one guest after another.
At 2 PM sharp.
Ji Xinghuo and Zhao Manying entered the manor’s hall hand in hand, where there were over forty guests, including many acquaintances.
The guests formed several small groups.
Ji Xinghuo scanned the room and noticed that the guests were largely divided into three cliques: local mutants and nobles of the New Roman Empire, guests from the United States and the West Alliance gathering together, and another group of Asia-Pacific Community guests, either standing or sitting, creating a rather relaxed atmosphere.
Among the dozen or so guests from the Asia-Pacific Community, Ji Xinghuo recognized most of them.
Those he hadn’t met before, he could still identify by their origins—they were all famous mutants from within the country, mostly Legendary.
As the pair entered the hall, the volume of conversation sharply dropped, silencing for a brief two seconds.
