I’m the King Of Technology

Chapter 773 – Shocking News

All 4 men continued their journey on Shanks road until they finally saw the tall overbearing city walls.

Magnificent!

Jacob looked at it in confusion.

How come the walls are different from what he remembered?

Was he experiencing memory loss, or was this an entirely new city wall?

No!

Why was he so confused?

This wall must ’ve been the same one that had stood here for ages.

It just had to be.

That was the only way that it would make sense.

After all, building a stone wall of this calibre would require workers to chisel and carry the stones onto the walls, which might take many years to do.

So this must be the same wall.

If that ’s the case, then did his memory have a problem?

Sigh…
It looked like he was getting old (Said the 38 years old Baron).

Jacob repeatedly convinced himself that this was the case.

But when he stepped into King ’s Landing, his reasoning collapsed.

What, how, when, why?

The buildings, the structures, the roads, the uniforms, the magical doors, and everything else made him realize that this wasn ’t the Baymard that he was well accustomed too

His shock couldn ’t be described at all.

It wasn ’t just him.

His friends were also going nuts as well.

All the way from the Landport to their 4-star hotel, they had been pointing, giggling, jumping and looking around the city in excitement.

Even their guards who they brought on this trip with them found it hard to fully concentrate on their jobs of protecting their masters because they too were filled with curiosity and enthusiasm.

It was truly hard.

”Wow!

Is the cold box that you mentioned?

Look!

When I open it up, a light comes on in it. ”

”Wait!

Close it and gently open it again.

Quick!

Let ’s take a peek and see how the light inside comes on. ”

”Dammit!

The light came on before we could see anything. ”

”Guys!

This is the holy fountain that I ’ve been hearing about.

Look!

Once the tap is turned, clean, fresh water flows out like magic. ”

”Waawww! ”

”But that ’s not all.

The magical fountain can produce both hot and cold water.

So we don ’t need to boil the water before taking a bath. ”

”Awesome! ”

”Hey guys, can you believe that this thing here can heat or cool the room depending on our choices? ”

”Wait!

Doesn ’t that mean that those living here don ’t need to bring firewood into their homes during winter?

What kind of lives are these people living?

How great is this? ”

”Hey!

Forget about that.

Let ’s put on the T.v and see this cable thing.

Haven ’t you heard?

Even though we have our Baymardian T.Vs back home, those only have what they call recorded movies and shows.

But in Baymard, they also have what they call Cable that shows live news. ”

”Then what are you waiting for, quick! Go to the international news.

Erm…
Here ’s the guide. ”

”Look, guys!

Look at the T.v.

They ’re reporting that his majesty Alec Barn is dead! ”

”What?

How?

Quick! Turn up the volume. ”

With that, Jacob anxiously increased it.

.

[ ”This just in.

The famous tyrant, his majesty Alec Barn has been permanently put to rest once and for all. ”]

At the same time, the T.V screen switched to a short video of Alec and some nobles being led to the execution ground.

The boo ’s from the people within the T.V were so loud and filled with hatred.

It also showed a speech that William made, promising to do better and treat his people with fairness.

Be it the citizens or nobles, William ’s speech made them know that big changes would occur in Arcadina from now henceforth.

What surprised everyone was that William also thanked Baymard for their hospitality and help.

He even went as far as confirming that he had indeed signed a treaty with Baymard.

Of course, the T.V Station would never show the clips where Alec and the rest lost their heads.

Children were watching, okay?

Anyway, from what they show, everyone got the gist of it.

The tyrant was finally dead.

Everyone was shocked, even Connor and Eli who were now seeing the news too.

Even though they knew that Alec had lost, seeing the whole thing still seemed surreal.

Was that the same person who gave them nightmares growing up?

How did he become so thin and weak before his death?

The newspaper company had already started thinking of tomorrow ’s headlines just from the clips alone:

•Hateful Tyrant kills his own son and rubs it on his wife ’s face.

•New Ruler emerges from Arcadina: Is He The One?

•Shocking! The truth comes to light: Tyrant killed his father and also attempted to kill his brother years back.

.

Jacob and the rest continued watching in a daze.

The air turned stagnant and their bodies trembled vigorously.

”Brothers…
Is he really dead?

Are we dreaming?

I must be dreaming!

This is Alec Freakin ’ Barn that we ’re talking about.

So how can this be real?

I must be dreaming.

Yes, I must be dreaming.

You all aren ’t real.

This is just a dream.

This is just a… ”

’Pah! ’

–silence–

”Aooowww!

What did you do that for? ”

”Didn ’t you say that you were dreaming?

Even I started to think that this was a dream.

So I just wanted to make sure.

Now, we ’re sure that we are awake.

You ’re welcome. ”

(:TT^TT:)

Hob massaged his swollen jaw pitifully: ”Even if you wanted to make sure, why did you have to slap me that hard? I almost lost a tooth there! ”

”But you didn ’t, didn ’t you. ”

”^ ”

.

”Alright guys, calm down.

Why are you 2 always on each other ’s necks?

Whether we believe it or not, the facts are right before us.

He ’s finally dead and long gone.

This calls for a celebration. ”

”Yeah! Yeah!

Bring out that Pendleton Whisky over there.

It ’s perfect for the occasion. ”

With that, they switched from the international news station and stayed on the local news station.

”Guys, after celebrating, let ’s head out and take a look at the city properly.

We ’re here for 2 and a half weeks.

So we need to check every place out before leaving. ”

”I agree.

But where do we start? ”

The moment one of them said this, like magic, the local news station had the answer.

[It ’s time for festivities once again.

Tomorrow is Baymard day, the day when his majesty was Crowned.

This was also the day when we became an empire.

And on this glorious day, the anticipated ride will be officially launched to the public.

That ’s right!

I ’m talking about hot air balloon rides! ”]
