Throne of Vientiane Civilization

While in amazement, several pterosaur riders consulted with each other and quickly flew to the endless water surface.

One pterosaur rider stayed in the coastal area as a signpost, and the other pterosaur riders each found a direction and flew over the water surface.

Originally, they wanted to use this method to see how big the lake was.

As a result, after flying for a while, they found that they still couldn't see the end, which made the pterosaur riders have to be cautious.

There was not even a decent reference on the lake. If they flew far away and couldn't see the signposts on the shore, they might get lost if they didn't pay attention.

At this moment, the pterosaur riders obviously didn't intend to take this risk.

Long before the previous operation, they had sent one back to report the situation.

The pterosaur riders who stayed here at this time were also exploring in the area.

After crossing the hill, the coastal area here was basically flat, without any obstacles, and all the scenes were in sight.

After a simple round of reconnaissance, several pterosaur riders in the air exchanged some information.

Two more pterosaur riders were assigned to land and conduct ground reconnaissance, while the remaining pterosaur riders continued to maintain air alert to ensure safety.

When their feet landed on the ground, the overly soft sand made the two pterosaur riders feel a little surprised, and they subconsciously reached out to grab a handful of sand.

The moment they touched it, the hot touch made them let go quickly, but even so, they clearly felt that the sand was incredibly fine, and it was not as rough as they remembered.

At the same time, before they approached the lake, they smelled a distinct odor from the wind blowing in their faces.

This discovery made the two pterosaur riders frown.

"Let's go and take a look."

As they spoke, they approached the lake.

The lizardmen's sense of smell was still very sharp. As the distance got closer, they could clearly feel that the odor became stronger and stronger.

Holding up a handful of lake water, the water quality was extremely clear, and there was no problem no matter how you looked at it, but the smell emitted from it made the two lizardmen doubt the water quality.

One of the pterosaur riders hesitated for a moment, dipped his finger in the water, and put it into his mouth.

The next second, his face changed.

"Bah! Why is this water bitter and salty?!"

The pterosaur rider next to him was slightly stunned, and then said thoughtfully...

"I heard that there is a lake in Black Moon City, and the water there is also salty, called the Salt Lake. The salt we eat on weekdays is extracted from the lake water."

"You mean, this is a salt lake? Then we are considered to have made a contribution?"

"Maybe? Salt is not valuable."

The news here was quickly passed back to the camp, but it would take a lot of time for the ground troops to rush over.

Although the mountain is not big, it obviously takes some time to climb over it or go around it.

Under this premise, they are now busy cleaning up the ruins in the city and improving internal security on the one hand, and hunting down the remnants of the rat people on the other hand. For a while, they really can't spare the time to go there to confirm the situation.

Just as Soros was struggling, another pterosaur rider flew back with the latest news.

"Saltwater Lake?"

After listening to the report, Soros frowned slightly.

From the situation, the saltwater lake is indeed a salt-producing resource point, but their Great Zhou has a stable salt production and is not short of salt at all.

In addition to such a saltwater lake, there seems to be nothing else nearby. This information made Soros quickly make a trade-off in his mind.

"Let's put it aside for now and focus on the search for the remnants of the ratmen. I will write a report later and report the situation here to His Majesty."

Obviously, in Soros's view, if it is just a saltwater lake, it is not so important.

After all, such a large lake will not disappear out of thin air. They can completely deal with the things in front of them first and then slowly go over.

Time passed quietly while the lizardmen troops were busy conducting a carpet search.

A large ship slowly approached the port of Black Moon City.

The people of Black Moon City have long been accustomed to such scenes, and now they don't even look at them twice.

After the ship docked, a burly man walked down the ship slowly with a handsome black horse.

"General Jie!"

Knowing that the ship that Jie Liancheng was on would arrive in Black Moon City today, Zhou Xu had already sent an elf knight to pick him up.

Originally, Zhou Xu wanted to bring him in in a low-key manner.

He was a person who was mostly ostentatious for a purpose, and usually kept a low profile and saved trouble.

However, the existence of the elf knight itself was not low-key.

But there was no way, mainly because there were only a few people in Black Moon City who had seen Jie Liancheng and knew what he looked like, and there were even fewer who were available.

After clicking here and there, only the elf knight could be sent.

Jie Liancheng couldn't say that he remembered every elf knight around Zhou Xu, but the recognition of grassland elves was high, which allowed them to meet smoothly.

"Your Majesty is waiting for you. Please follow me."

As they spoke, the two men mounted their horses and headed towards Black Moon City along the main road.

This was Xie Liancheng's first time in Black Moon City. Before he even entered the city, he looked around along the way with a look of admiration on his face.

Compared with the cities in the New North District and even the New South District, this Black Moon City is really surrounded by mountains and rivers, and has a feeling of a Jiangnan water town.

Just based on this environment, people can feel better just by living here.

[I must talk to Hongxu later and bring Aju and Qihu over. ]

Before, he thought that Zhou Xu was going to develop Xianyang City as the capital, so it was completely fine for his wife and children to stay in the capital to enjoy the good life.

Who would have thought that it was not the case at all.

This Black Moon City is the real capital of the Great Zhou.

Just a glance, before entering the city, in Jie Liancheng, it has already surpassed Xianyang City.

After entering the city, looking at the spacious and clean central avenue, the gap is completely widened.

Seeing the big picture from the small, although there is only a central avenue in front of him, it can be seen from this road alone that the development level of this city is definitely not low.

In Black Moon City, the identity of an Elf Knight is more useful than anything else. Under the leadership of an Elf Knight, the two of them had no obstacles along the way and soon entered the palace through the central avenue.

"General, please rest in the side hall first. His Majesty will be here soon."

During the time when they were waiting for Jie Liancheng, a front-line war report was delivered temporarily.

Considering the possibility of any new situation, Zhou Xu naturally gave priority to handling the business and let Jie Liancheng rest in the side hall first.
