The most intuitive way to determine how powerful a country is is to see how prosperous its capital is, because this is the center of politics and economy.
Standing on a high ground with a wide view, the entire team could see most of the imperial capital.
It was very close to the city entrance in front, and the gates along the foot of the mountain could already be seen along the road.
The team couldn't help but choose to stop at this place.
Needless to say, the soldiers from Hajar City, but some people from Siwa City, including Kajimi, had never seen such a prosperous city.
Is this the city in the eastern part of the empire?
The suzerain country that dominates half of the desert countries and the imperial capital of the Asta Empire.
"This is the Imperial Capital."
The team stopped, and Wang Chu flew back to stand on top of the carriage.
Lucia in the carriage couldn't help but come out.
It can be seen that this is the first time she has seen such a spectacular city.
Whether it is the prosperity or the area, it is unmatched by Hajar City.
Even if she insists on comparison, Wang Chu feels that Hajar City may be a village in front of it. form.
There are three types of transportation including water, land and air, and there are so many houses with various styles of architecture.
Just counting the gryphon knights and various flying animals flying in the sky, there are more people moving faster than the population seen high in Hajar City.
"Well, this is the glorious city of Calalda, the capital of the empire.
I was a child when I last came here.
It seems to have become more prosperous in the past few years."
Rias said from the side.
"Colleagues from Hajar City, as well as distinguished guests from Siwa City, I would like to first welcome you on behalf of the Imperial Capital.
Although I would like to take you to see more of the beautiful scenery of the Imperial Capital, we still have a way to go, King.
A banquet has been arranged for everyone in the palace."
While everyone was still marveling at the prosperity of the imperial capital, the leader of the royal cavalry heard a voice from the front.
He had been walking at the front with Edmund and Kajimi, and seemed to be talking all the way, but Wang Chu didn't go over and didn't know what they were talking about.
"Let's go, let's go quickly.
We are on our way."
Upon hearing the king's personal reception, all the soldiers did not dare to neglect and hurriedly picked up their weapons and rushed on their way.
Thinking about this king's high prestige among the people, just hearing his name can make people feel excited.
The gate through which the team entered the city should belong to a side gate in the imperial capital, and just as I thought, this road was a place for transporting military supplies, so what I saw most after entering the city were soldiers coming and going.
They are all fully armed and will stop neatly when they see the team passing by.
Then he bowed and greeted everyone.
Because they were all wearing helmets, it was hard to tell what they looked like.
Wang Chu could only judge from their body shapes that some of the soldiers were women.
At the same time, there were well-trained summoned beasts passing by.
The reason why I say well-trained is that in Wang Chu's impression, except for the highly intelligent summoned beasts, many ordinary summoned beasts just retain the instinct of being beasts, like the two salamanders he met in the academy before. , they don’t walk so neatly next to each other, and they don’t make any noise at all.
It's still a different species that only makes sounds when it passes by the team.
Wang Chu could understand it.
It was a very disciplined slogan about moving forward and keeping an eye on the road ahead.
"It turns out summoned beasts can be trained like this."
Rias poked her head out and looked at the passing summoned beasts in surprise.
"I have never seen training like this."
The two girls focused on the team of summoning beasts.
To humans, these summoning beasts should just make instinctive calls, because they are all saying one sentence, maybe The tone is very close.
In their opinion, it was already very neat.
This kind of situation can only happen in the imperial capital.

The gang of lazy people in Hajir City, and the leading ones are just taking naps and drinking tea, so don't expect them.
Vassela had invited him to a tea party held by the beast-calling bosses.
Initially, he wanted to learn about other things in the world from them, but later he discovered that they probably knew so much, especially in Vassela.
After La admitted that he had hid part of it from him, he completely quit there.
I haven’t been to their tea party since I came back from the desert.
As for the news they told me, I still don’t know whether it is true or false.
It’s better to ask Guliana Qiang yourself.
Looking ahead, Vasela was also in the team, and he had almost never spoken to her alone since the incident in the cathedral.
Listen to the admiration of the soldiers around you.
Only then did Wang Chu consciously look at the expressions on everyone's faces, especially those from Siwa City, who had an expression of excitement and admiration.
Look around at the surrounding environment.
Heavily armed soldiers stood on almost every building.
This is a street in the city, even if it is a place for material transportation.
Since there are so many soldiers guarding it, there is no need for a group of soldiers to appear every few intersections.
Wang Chu vaguely felt that this was a deliberate arrangement.
But what was the purpose?
He looked at the soldiers coming from Siwa City, and they showed a serious sense of admiration.
It was obvious that this was specially displayed for the people of Siwa City to see.
As for why, whether it was to show the power of the empire to intimidate or for other purposes, Wang Chu couldn't tell for a while.
Recall the empire's attitude towards the countries in the desert, starting with the appearance of General Dracula.
It's like a game, it's hard to figure out.
It stands to reason that Hajar City has been attacked by the Midnight Sons, so they should be more concerned about this matter.
This is a threat to national security.
Only then did she feel that what Guliana said was true.
She couldn't guess what Midnight's Son would do.
People's hearts were the hardest to guess.
No matter how many years older she was, she couldn't really figure out what the other party was thinking.
Follow the Royal Cavalry all the way.
This block is really a transportation thoroughfare.
Apart from soldiers, summoners and transport carriages, no other residents can be seen.
Most of the buildings on both sides are for storage or for soldiers to live, not residential houses.
It seemed that they wanted to show Kajimi and the others that the empire had so many supplies and soldiers.
Wang Chu calculated the time and found that it took almost an hour or two from the time he entered the city to the time he walked out of the street.
This street is really scary.
The style of the buildings I saw changed, becoming more exaggerated and grand.
"We're almost there.
The Imperial Palace is in front of us."
A voice came from the direction of the leader.
Everyone was busy getting dressed.
Wang Chu followed his gaze and saw a place located at a relatively high place in the city, surrounded by a protective river, like a huge island independent in the canal.
The entire island is a cluster of buildings, with roads extending from the streets to bridges and gates across the river.
It grows windingly all the way to the top building.
The procession entered, and soldiers on both sides began to play their trumpets
