Lady Lin's First-ever Journey to Immortality Chapter 522 - Rose Hotel

Chapter 522 Rose Hotel

Lin Luoran came back from Mount Penglai. After that, she had killed countless mutant monsters before she found any living men. She was only at the Bearing Essence Period at that time, but she never had to worry about mutant monsters. For a long time, she has not been vigilant about mutant monsters at all.

Unexpectedly, a strange monster with majestic earth element is lurking under the sand of the Yellow River.

At this moment, she is no longer the Bearing Essence cultivator who just came back from Spirit Mountain. As a Gathering Vitality cultivator, she didn’t even notice this strange earth monster at first. Its strength really makes her feel puzzled.

Lin Luoran kind of regrets not taking Hu Ji together with her. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have to be so afraid of the strange monster.

Several senior professors are still near the river with the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p not far above, so Lin Luoran doesn’t dare to take action for a while. However, she is prepared to attack. If the strange monster violently hurts someone, she doesn’t have to show mercy.

She is worried, but nothing happens. Sweaty scholars go back to the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p without knowing the situation, and the strange monster lurking under the water does not attack at all.

Among all the people on board, only Colin sees something wrong with Lin Luoran.

He asks her in a low voice but Lin Luoran shakes her head at him without saying a word.

When the s.p.a.cecraft sets off again, Lin Luoran is the most nervous person about pa.s.sing above the Yellow River Basin. To her surprise, the alien monster seems to be really peaceful. No one notices it and the s.p.a.cecraft has crossed the river safely.

After leaving this place, Lin Luoran realizes that her hands are all sweaty.

Her feeling nervous is not only because she doesn’t know the opponent’s strength but because Colin is not the only one in the s.p.a.cecraft. Besides, a group of scholars who are precious for reconstruction are also there.

It’s just that the strange monster does not overreact.

Is it gentle by nature?

Lin Luoran feels a little strange, but the s.p.a.cecraft has already left there far away. She looks back. On the virtual screen, all she can see is the eternally gray sky on the banks of the Yellow River, which is no different from other places in the New Era.

The earth alien monster has been motionless, deep in the riverbed. When the s.p.a.cecraft becomes a small spot in the distance, it raises its huge head.

It does not look amiable. However, its large eyes have emotions that do not match monsters.

It looks reluctant and nostalgic. Even unspeakable relief can be seen in its eyes.

…

Because of the strange earth monster, Lin Luoran is inevitably distracted along the way. It’s time for Lin Luoran to take a break. She just takes the chance to refine some materials and plans to finish some important steps after she arrives at Zhongdu City.

No matter how long the journey is, she still has to solve the problem in Zhongdu City. The research team with Lin Luoran and Colin in it arrives in Zhongdu City two days later.

Compared to the waters of Dongting of eight hundred square miles, Zhongdu City was windy and sandy before the New Era. At present, it is a place twice bigger as the capital before the New Era. It is a huge city of yellow sand under the semicircular bunker.

At first glance, compared with Dongting City, Zhongdu City seems to be suffering from severe water shortage.

Rather than saying that something went wrong with the seedling center, it is more about the reconstruction, which is very difficult to promote near the Zhongdu City.

No matter how great Mortal Heart Fairy and the Earth Federation are, they can’t begin the endless vegetation restoration job if they can’t solve the problem of drinking water for people.

After strict censors.h.i.+p, Lin Luoran and others get the permission to enter Zhongdu City.

In the car sent by the government, Lin Luoran is quietly observing along the way, trying to connect Zhongdu city with the capital in her memory together.

However, compared with Dongting City, Zhongdu city was probably destroyed more severely in the past. Many landmark buildings are completely beyond recognition. Lin Luoran is surprised when she sees vehicles pa.s.sing the old palace quietly.

w.a.n.g thinks the little girl is surprised because she sees the ancient Huaxia architecture for the first time. He says regretfully and also thankfully, “This is the old palace that has survived two dynasties, Ming and Qing. It was preserved under the artillery fire of the Alpha Alliance. It is also the only well-preserved ancient building on earth.”

Lin Luoran nods.

She can understand the elder. Before the New Era, many people criticized the taste of the Qing Dynasty, saying that the capital of the Forbidden City was red and yellow, which was very tacky and different from the splendid Daming Palace of Tang dynasty in the past. However, in the New Era… After the pyramid disappeared, the Arc de Triomphe collapsed, the Great Wall was destroyed, and the most famous ancient buildings in the world including countless exquisite gardens in the south of Huaxia were all devastated by gunfire. The only remaining Ming and Qing Palace has been given more meanings.

Seeing it, Lin Luoran thinks of more destroyed “things”. She doesn’t know whether she should feel happy or sad.

They just pa.s.s by the palace wall. The car arrives at the hotel which the Zhongdu government arranges for them.

The hotel is not very luxurious, but it is near the seedling center. Therefore, the senior researchers who don’t pay attention to material conditions are very satisfied.

The hotel arranges a reception banquet for the scholars who come to support Dongting City. The deputy mayor of the Zhongdu City even comes here. In addition to the rarest and most expensive species of mutant monsters, there are also some real natural fruit and vegetables on the table. There are even some half-foot-long lobsters.

Lin Luoran and Colin have no comments on this meal. Senior scholars also focus more on the problems encountered by the seedling center. Maybe only the reception staff from Zhongdu city, especially the deputy mayor as the host, enjoy the meal most.

Seeing that the vice mayor is drunk and flushed with a big belly, Lin Luoran feels a little irritable. Even though it is the New Era now, people still can’t accomplish anything without the help of such kind of people.

Anyway, she is just an insignificant person at this moment. No one will notice her leaving quietly.

Lin Luoran follows the wind and walks along the corridor all the way to the hotel garden.

Unlike the simple and low-key style of the hotel, the garden is filled with all roses. Pink, purple, and blue roses… Pure red roses are the most.

Lin Luoran is a little surprised by the fragrance of roses. However, probably no one will still be in a bad mood when surrounded by flowers.

The uncomfortable atmosphere of the banquet also seems to be less unbearable.

After a while, Colin also comes here.

“Miss, shall we still conduct our investigations with them?”

Lin Luoran seems to be a little intoxicated in the aroma. She nods after a long time, and then turns to him with a smile, “The hotel environment is really good.”

Colin is stunned. He looks at the nameplate nailed on the garden wall and feels it kind of familiar.

“It’s the famous Rose Hotel in the alliance.”

As a member of the Weir family from Rank Four member star, Colin has been to many places of the Alpha Alliance. The Rose Hotel is not known for luxury, and it is not even eye-catching among many chain hotels in the alliance. However, he just realizes there are its chain hotels in important cities of every member star.

The Rose Hotel just began to develop decades ago. Compared with the old hotels in the alliance that have been in business for thousands of years, it seems to be a little too young. Colin remembers the information that he accidentally read in the past. He knew that the Rose Hotel has been developing extremely fast, but he doesn’t expect that it also runs the business in Zhongdu City on the earth.

It’s said that its mysterious boss loves roses most, but it remains unknown if it is true or not.

Colin goes through these insignificant gossips in his mind. Probably there is no important information worthy of Lin Luoran’s attention, so he immediately leaves it behind.

………………

“Senator Pang.”

On the Dongting Stars.h.i.+p landing site, the officials of the munic.i.p.al government have been waiting for totally a morning before they see their familiar man surrounded by many guards leaving the stars.h.i.+p. The leader does not complain about his sweaty suit due to the long wait. With very genuine respect on his face, he takes the lead to greet the man.

“Welcome, Mr. Pang.”

“Mr. Pang…”

Important officials greet him one after another, and officials who once worked with this middle-aged man are more willing to call him “Mr. Pang” rather than “Senator Pang.”

Judging from Pang Xianzhong’s smile which finally shows a little friendliness, he is obviously more satisfied with the t.i.tle “Mr. Pang”.

The leading official wipes his cold sweat and feels that he doesn’t perform as usual. However, he is transferred to Dongting City not long ago, so he cannot be to blame. Although he has heard that Senator Pang is very friendly and not pretentious, he doesn’t dare to make mistakes when he is still unfamiliar with him. After all, this senator already gets some power in the Federal Supreme Senate. Even with a smile on his face, he still has the unique aura of a superior which cannot be ignored.

The judging panel of the Alpha Federation has long been here in Dongting. Their men have been arguing about the qualification of the Earth Federation to be promoted to a “Rank Two member star”. The new mayor knows senator Pang is here to deal with this matter but how will the senator who advocates moderate policy affect the current situation?

Pang Xianzhong greets casually to a group of officials asking for information. He then gets in a black car that comes to pick him up.

Seeing the new mayor looking at him eagerly, Pang Xianzhong checks the time on the old mechanical watch on his wrist. He says with some dissatisfaction, “Mayor Peng, you are a federal official so you can’t be too mild in some aspects. ”

Mayor Peng freezes, trying to explain something. However, the black cars have already been out of his sight.

Regardless of the thoughts of other officials, Mayor Peng feels the meaning of Pang Xianzhong’s words a little unbelievable. Is the Federation going to have a tougher att.i.tude towards the Alpha Alliance this time?

But what is the trump card of the Federation? Is it just that Mortal Heart Fairy?

Of course, Mayor Peng’s thoughts will not affect Pang Xianzhong. In front of a large group of people, it is difficult for him to speak too bluntly.

However, Pang Xianzhong is convinced. The man has been in business for many years. He will not be satisfied with the t.i.tle of “Rank Two member star” which is only a little better than a colonial star. The Alpha Alliance compromises this time, and Pang Xianzhong knows that the man will definitely take action. But he doesn’t expect Pang to come to Dongting himself.

Not because of Mortal Heart Fairy, he…

“Mr. Pang, the Rose Hotel is here.”

The driver’s words make Pang Xianzhong put something aside and he orders the security personnel to stand by. Pang Xianzhong tidies his clothes, making sure that he is all neat before entering the hotel alone.

The Rose Hotel is not luxurious, but the man seems to love it.

Pang Xianzhong remembers that he seems to have chosen this chain hotel for many times for their meeting. He keeps thinking for a while. Under the guidance of a special person, he gently pushes open the door of a luxurious suite on the top floor.

A scent of flowers floats out. The first thing that catches Pang Xianzhong’s eyes is the bright red roses on the terrace.

Mu Tiannan looks a little pale. He waves at him, holding a gla.s.s of dark red wine in his hand like always.
