Chapter 828: Chapter 20 Quite Capable, Something Up the Sleeve (Additional Chapter for Monthly Votes!)_3 Chapter 828: Chapter 20 Quite Capable, Something Up the Sleeve (Additional Chapter for Monthly Votes!)_3 What would happen next?
When Queenstown’s industrial level was sufficiently developed, and its combat power strong enough to dominate the entire Old East Sea…
would that imperious queen be satisfied with the current minor skirmishes?
“History is really interesting.”
Lin Xian remarked,
“Where there are people, there’s history, and where there’s history, there’s always a cycle.”
However, he didn’t care about that.
Whether Queenstown was overbearing or not, Lin Xian had no intention of showing off and becoming a hero in troubled times.
That was supposed to be…
Lee Cheng’s role, right?
It was just a pity.
It seemed Lee Cheng’s fate was not as hardy as Big Face Cat’s; he probably no longer existed in The Fifth Dreamland.
Or perhaps…
Lee Cheng and Lee Ningning were living a happy life on Mars now.

At the thought,
Lin Xian looked at Big Face Cat with great respect,
“You’re the real Millennium Stakes.”
“Gah?”
Big Face Cat’s eyes were clear,
“Bro, what the heck are you talking about?”
“The wings of a time-space butterfly can turn the whole world upside down, but they couldn’t flutter a single hair on Brother Lian’s head,” Lin Xian teased.
“Let’s drop this subject and talk about something serious.”
“I need more specific intelligence.
What’s the actual situation in Queenstown?
How many people, how large an area, what living standard, including…
information about that queen, how much do you know?”
Big Face Cat’s face jiggled,
“I can’t remember all that, wait a second, I’ll call a counsellor for you.”
?
Counsellor?
With Lian Village’s strategic level, they have a counsellor?
Lin Xian and CC exchanged a glance, conveying their mutual astonishment.
“Ah Zhuang!!”
Big Face Cat yelled towards the village.
“…”
Lin Xian was speechless.
So Ah Zhuang had even become a counsellor now.
So, in the current Lian Village.
Ah Zhuang would be playing a role similar to Zhuge Liang; Er Zhuzi was either Zhao Yun or Lu Bu; San Pang was consistently simple and honest, perhaps Zhang Fei?
Then Big Face Cat…
Could only be Liu Shan.
Before long, Ah Zhuang with sharp eyes came running over, introducing to Lin Xian:
“Queenstown is not far from us, about less than 3 kilometers to the south, the town is very large, many times bigger than our Lian Village, and because it’s surrounded by high walls, we have no clear idea of what’s inside.”
“As for the population, I estimate there are at least several thousand people, the living standard is definitely much better than ours.

They live in brick houses, many buildings even have three or four floors, and they have domesticated horses.”
“We know even less about the queen.
After all, we have very little contact with them.
Every time they come to collect protection money on schedule, we always tie up the pigs, cattle, sheep, and the like in advance and load them onto the carts.”
“Everyone is angry but dares not speak up, they have firearms, and we simply don’t dare to resist…
Brother Lian’s father, before he died, always reminded us that we must open the safe as soon as possible to see if there’s anything inside that can change our fate and make us powerful.”
“We’ve always thought there were powerful weapons in the safe, but to our surprise, there were only books.”
“Where is the safe then?” Lin Xian asked the question he was most concerned about:
“Brother Lian just said that there are more than a dozen safes in Queenstown and that many of them have already been opened.
Do you have any clues about the safes?
Do you know their numbers and names?”
Ah Zhuang shook his head:
“We don’t qualify to enter Queenstown, let alone have the opportunity, so we definitely have no clue about any safes.”
“The talk of over a dozen safes was also passed down by the elders in the village, probably rumors from before Queenstown had developed.”
…
Thus far,
Following the military counsellor Ah Zhuang’s description, Lin Xian had gained some basic understanding of [Queenstown].
He was most concerned about the safes.
However, given the vast discrepancy in power, even with the assistance of Uncle Wei Shengjin’s Dora-Golden Dream, he had only managed to obtain a pistol at most.
First, a pistol had limited bullets and definitely couldn’t be used to venture in alone; second, the enemy had a large number of firearms.
Although very outdated, when amassed in numbers, their combat power was quite terrifying.
How could he get access to those safes?
Pondering,
Perhaps…
He would still have to revert to his old trade and take the secret infiltration route.
After Ah Zhuang finished speaking, he left with Big Face Cat.
Neither of them had any interest in the notebooks from the safe.
And Lin Xian frankly shared his thoughts with CC:
“Since there are more than a dozen safes in Queenstown, I think it’s definitely worth it to try our luck.”
“Absolutely.”
Fearless CC was already resolved:
“Don’t even mention a dozen, even if there was only one, I would go.
But…
We’re just two people with limited strength and insufficient weapons; can we really succeed?”
“Don’t worry about that, I’ll handle it,”
Lin Xian said,
“It’s just going to take a while, I need to memorize the contents of this notebook first.”
Queenstown.
And the dozen plus safes inside the town.
Indeed, they could be considered an unexpected bonus from The Fifth Dreamland.
Inside might be Uncle Wei Shengjin’s safe, as well as the one Lin Xian and CC had been searching for.
In any case, they had no reason not to make the trip.
But for now, he had to complete an even more important task first—
“Time-Space Travel Theory Principles and Time Shuttle Machine Construction Ideas”
That was the real trump card!
If this manuscript was real and accurate, its priority could even exceed the Hafnium Alloy Safe in the short term.
