Section 175 City

Half an hour later, a wide asphalt road appeared ahead. Chen Xing stepped on the accelerator, and the armed cricket soared to a speed of 150 kilometers per hour. The strong wind made it difficult to open his eyes. Chen Xing fumbled on the console and found the hood of the car.

Switch, pull it down.

"Click..."

With a soft sound, the hood rose from the trunk and covered the vehicle. The interior of the car became a sealed space, the speed of the armed cricket increased again, and the pointer on the dial turned to 200 kilometers per hour.

After driving for a while, a spiral approach bridge appeared in the field of vision. Chen Xing reduced his speed, drove onto the approach bridge, and entered the expressway. A sign with green background and white letters hung above the entrance, which read: United Kingdom of Ambergris River

National Highway 1809 section.

The road has become wider, from a two-way four-lane to a two-way twelve-lane, which is three times as wide.

"You have entered the national highway. The two lanes on the right are slow lanes with a speed limit of 60 to 120 kilometers per hour. The three lanes in the middle are fast lanes with a speed limit of 120 to 200 kilometers per hour.

hour, the left lane is the speed lane, the speed limit is not less than 200 kilometers per hour..."

After driving onto the highway, Armed Cricket's on-board computer automatically connected to the highway's navigation network, and a female mechanically synthesized prompt came from the speaker.

"Buzz!"

Chen Xing entered the speed lane from right to left and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom. The V12 engine roared loudly and the needle soared to 300 kilometers per hour. Indescribable pleasure filled his head, as if every cell had an electric current.

pass.

Every man has a dream of racing, racing with passion under the roar of the engine, and enjoying a life of freedom. Chen Xing also likes racing, but he was too poor in his first two lives and had no chance to drive a good car. In his first life, he envied others driving Ferraris and Bentleys.

, Jaguar, BMW. In the second life, I envied others driving Dream Flying Shadow, Blue Disc, Meteor Fire, and Land Shuttle. In the third life, I finally drove a sports car. Although it was in the first gear, it was equivalent to a BMW on earth.

The fifth series is a little dream come true.

The national highway is brightly lit, and every 100 meters there is a streetlight with a height of 20 meters, which has an extremely long sight distance. The neon billboards on both sides keep flashing, and the electronic road signs above turn up lines of green prompt information, and

There are two completely different worlds in the wasteland.

This highway was invested and constructed by the Malan royal family. It was originally intended to run through most of the cities built along the Ambergris River in the United Kingdom and strengthen the closeness of the kingdom. But in fact, most principalities of the principality are not willing to have the highway run directly through it.

Territory, because this will lead to a decrease in the independence of the territory, so the national highways are section by section, mainly used for travel between major cities within the principality.

Seeing that the plan went bankrupt, the Malan royal family also terminated subsequent investments.

The Red Dragon Principality has a large land area, occupying half of the northern wilderness, and its national power ranks among the top five in the entire kingdom. However, its infrastructure is very average. The national highway has only built a section of Crow City and Monitor Lizard City. The biggest reason for this is

, because the output of the wilderness is too little, the environment is poor, and the cost of road maintenance is too high, making it not worth the investment.

"Boom boom boom..."

Heavy container trucks passed by one after another, making a huge sound of air friction. Chen Xing held the steering wheel with both hands and drove with concentration. At such a high speed, a small mistake could lead to a vehicle crash and death.

However, his danger perception has given him the talent of a super racing driver. As long as there is the slightest sign of trouble, he can immediately sense it and avoid danger.

After another half an hour, the endless green wheat fields came into view. Whenever the wind blew, the wheat waves piled up like the sea. This marked that he had entered the Ambergris River Basin from the wasteland. The water here is sufficient and the land is fertile.

Looking around, there are many water towers and ditches everywhere.

Huge agricultural machinery is parked in the field. It is now mid-April, just over a month after planting, and the wheat has grown to more than half a meter high. There are scattered scarecrows in the field to drive away birds.

Chen Xing's car was driving at an extremely fast speed. There were more and more billboards on both sides, and the neon lights were becoming more and more dazzling. After turning a big bend, a cluster of brightly lit high-rise buildings appeared on the horizon.

Among the four major cities in the Red Dragon Principality, Dalingshan is the city of mining, Gray Horn City is the city of wilderness and industry, Lizard City is the city of war, and Crow City is the city of trade.

In the very middle of the city, there is a skyscraper that soars into the sky. Among the buildings, it stands out like a flock of chickens. It is the iconic building of Crow City, the "Crow's Nest", with a total of 333 floors, including the lightning rod.

With a height of more than 1,000 meters, it is the tallest building in the entire north of Ambergris River, so it is also known as the "Crow's Nest in the Clouds".

In fact, the location of the urban area of ​​Crow City is not good. Looking around, behind Crow City are the towering mountains - the Red Rock Mountains.

From the map, it is a dead end. However, the Red Rock Principality is located inland, and the only river entrance is the tributary next to Crow City, and all merchant ships have to pass there. And Crow City and the River Bird Principality are only separated by one river.

Invisibly, Crow City became the trade center of the three principalities.

Driving at high speed, Chen Xing soon entered the boundary of Crow City. After getting off the national highway, he drove a section of the road and there was a fork in front of him. A large LCD screen was erected in the middle, and the intersections on both sides were

There are electronic railings.

[For suspended vehicles, please take the left channel and enter the city directly]

[For wheeled vehicles, please take the right channel, park the vehicle, and then transfer to the subway or bus to enter the city]

Chen Xing's armed cricket is a wheeled vehicle, so naturally it can only go through the right channel. The management of big cities is very strict. In order to protect the environment and urban sanitation, wilderness vehicles are not allowed to enter. Most of the vehicles in the wilderness are wheeled.

, because wheeled vehicles have the advantages of low cost, easy repair, and large load capacity, they can meet the needs of wilderness transportation.

Before coming here, he had made an appointment with others to meet in parking lot No. 59.

After a while, Chen Xing followed the instructions of the electronic road signs and parked the armed cricket into parking lot No. 59. There was a 24-hour convenience store at the entrance of the parking lot. Chen Xing bought a cup of coffee and sat on a wicker chair at the door to wait for the others.

About two hours later, the remaining three people and the caravan's vehicles arrived at the parking lot one after another. Next, the four people packed the supplies in the car and called a city's floating transport vehicle through the convenience store clerk.

The shape of the car was the same as a van on Earth, except that it had no wheels and was suspended half a meter in the air. After loading the things into the car, the middle-aged businessman also completed the procedures for Chen Xing, Cassie, and Danny to enter the city.

, and each person was given a red electronic watch as a temporary identity. This kind of watch is called a "red watch". Its style is similar to that of a black watch, but its functions are far different. It can only provide identification and some basic information.

query.

"Sir, where are you going?" After getting on the city transport vehicle, the driver turned around and asked.

"The Wilcox Hotel." Chen Xing reported the location based on his memory from the previous life.

"Ah?" The driver frowned, thought for a while, and asked with some uncertainty, "Is there a place like this at the Wilcox Hotel?"

Chen Xing suddenly remembered that at this point in time, the Wilcox Hotel had not yet been built, and immediately changed his words, "Big Banyan Tree Hotel."
