<h4>Chapter 1215 - Progress!</h4>
They did it. They actually did it!
Hahahhahahahhaha~
Very quickly, Landon found himself floating in the air like a lovestruck person.
He skipped merrily while hastily making his way to the Weapon Manufacturing Industry in the lower region.
That''s right. The weapon manufacturing Industry.
Oh, dear. Landon felt like he was going to have a heart attack from overjoy when he thought of the good news he heard today.
The progress rate was faster than he imagined.
~Catchak.~
Landon stepped out of his vehicle after hopping through countless checks just to get into the Lower Region.
Those standing close to him had always held awe when looking at how he did things.
Look! Even his majesty had to do checks before entering the lower region, so how could they, the workers, feel that these checks were too much?
Sometimes it was the little things like this that made everyone feel that doing these checks was necessary.
Of course, only those who drive in with their vehicles would go through these checks. It wasn''t anything tedious and was super fast since people would have to pass through the detectors and scanners, as well as show their I.D''s, both private andpany one that matched them too.
.
Again, one shouldn''t forget that the Lower Region as a whole had its own private bus and train Stations dedicated to it within each Residential District.
They only ced them in the residential districts, making it easier for the Baymardians to leave their homes and board ording to schedule.
3 years back, the Lower region workers only used buses to move back and forth at will.
But now, it was all different.
They had decided to add trains to the mix as well. And this was because of how big the Capital city was as a whole.
Workers had to board the buses several hours ahead, sometimes too early in the morning. They also had to go through the checks, as well. And at times, everythingbined just made people more tired instead.
Thus, they had decided to cut travel time. And Trains were faster than buses.
Now, people could drive their vehicles, park them at the train stations, go through the checks before boarding the trains for a one-way trip to the Lower region.
It was super fast and also very entertaining as well. Why? Because although it starts off as and train, it soon ascends, bing a sky train that gives a good tour of the city.
And once it got somewhat close to the Lower Region''s entry point, it would then descend back onnd.
From there, it would move for a good steady distance before passing the massive front Gates.
That''s right. Both vehicles and cars could pass through the gates when opened. The entire gates were asrge as a 4ne-road. So the trains had their own sections too.
.
The trains would then go straight in and drop the passengers at the only Train station within the Lower Region.
Following that, they would pass through a brief yet simple security check again before stepping out.
The Train station was located at the first entry zone of the lower region.
Typically, people would board the buses that would take them straight for their respective industries scattered around. Bear in mind that the Lower region was as massive as a town.
So with all the numerous industries scattered about, they couldn''t afford to make bus stops and keep stopping at every single turn. And that''s why eachpany had its private buses.
Well, the trains were the only way apart from private vehicle transportation that the workers could use to enter the Lower region.
When it came to leaving the lower region, that was another matter.
People could use the buses or trains to leave.
After the private industry buses pick the workers up and leave them at the Train/bus station within the lower region, they could then choose to leave via the train again, or take the Official Lower Region buses that could disperse towards all parts within Baymard.
This setup truly pleased the workers.
The trains would only stop at the Residential districts. But the buses leaving will head towards the other districts, and one could even stop at the stores, parks, banks or any other ce they wanted to go to after work.
That was how things were typically done when it came to the lower region.
.
Landon stepped out of his vehicle, spotted several industry buses now parked outside, and couldn''t help feeling a bit aplished with the many changes that had taken ce over the years.
But of course, his emotions were once again swept to the back of his head after seeing several people inb coats briskly walk towards him excitedly.
Looking at their expressions, it was clear that they were trying to hide their joy and act cool.
Too bad their quivering lips and big steps hadpletely crushed their act.
"Your majesty, wee!"
"Hmm. Is everything in order?"
"Yes, your majesty. We are ready. And those from the Ministry of National Defence, as well as those from the Ministry of Innovation, Science & Industry, are also here as well. Of course, special guests from the Navy, Barracks, Police forces, Marines and Coast Guards had long arrived too." Said the excited man who was still wearing goggles. It looked like he had even forgotten that he was wearing them. At the moment, his eyes twinkled and shone thrillingly while looking at Landon.
Hahahahhaha! Today was the scheduled day when they had to show how much progress they had made. He was particrly pleased with all the prototypes they had made.
His job, as well as that of everyone else, was to impress them all today and blow everyone''s minds straight into the clouds.
And just how confident was he about today''s matter? 200% confident!
Even when experimenting, creating and doing countless things, he was highly enthusiastic about them all. So how could he not know their worth?
Today, the weapon Manufacturing Industry was ready to give another good show.
The man smiled from mr to mr with burning passion in his eyes: "Your majesty. We are ready!"
"Good. Good. Good. Lead the way."
With that, Landon also briskly walked forward as well.
What a joke. Even though he had long been prepared for today''s matter, he didn''t know how far they had gone. So after the call, he more than anyone else was looking forward to the show.
The gang headed straight in, passed through the detector doors, shipped the ess cards through the machines within the massive room.
And after it turned green, they were allowed to pass.
The weapon manufacturing industry owned one of thergest spaces within the lower region. It had humerus fenced fields belonging to it, where one could even shoot out a hand grenade if need be.
.
"Your majesty!"
"Your majesty!"
"Minister Gonovich, Minister Devin... Monster Gordon... d to see you all are well." Landon said while greeting the numerous people who all held great roles and titles within Baymard. He even saw his sworn brother Mark too.
Hey. Those from the armed forces hade, as well as everyone else from the various ministries that concerned today''s matter.
Some wore their well-decorated military suits, while others wore their tailored suits instead.
In short, everyone looked powerful and in control.
Landon looked at them and smiled wryly. Fortunately, Lucy forced him to dress formally for the meeting. Although... He still felt it a hassle. After all, he was yet again going to run around once the meeting was done. And from the looks of it, he might not even have time to change. And in this boiling summer sun, wouldn''t he end up sweating buckets instead?
Landon undid the top bu??on of his military-style suit and took his seat in distress.
Who asked him to be a public figure?
In truth, his casual clothes weren''t all that casual. Do you know how freaking expensive they were? Many were also limited edition ones too.
But, in matters like these, he had to either wear his well-decorated military attire or his royal one.
Like so, everyone discussed with each other excitedly while waiting for the show tomence.
Both ministers and armed force personnel really dove into countless topics in wait. No doubt, their focus was also on today''s matter.
Landon looked at his watch and smiled broadly.
1 minute to showtime.
