《I'm the King Of Technology 》Chapter 1177: A Crucial Meeting
Advertisement
Landon closed his eyes only briefly to enjoy the mouth-watering taste of his favourite hot beverage so far... French Vanilla.
He stopped it very stingily while driving towards District C.
From his watch, he should be able to get there in at most 30 minutes before the meeting began.
But if there was too much traffic, then he might only get there in 8 or 10 minutes before it began.
Landon placed his beverage to the side and decided to focus on getting there as swiftly as possible.
With that he turned a lane, daring not to join the Main Roads, and continuously turned towards several other street lanes.
But of course, he dared not act as if he were in a Fast & Furious movie.
After all, wouldn't it be too embarrassing if the highway and street police officers stopped him, his majesty, for speeding like that?
Hell! As a ruler, he had to obey the laws that he placed and lead by example.
So forget it!
He drove according to the speeding limits and was a proper law-abiding citizen of Baymard.
Well, he would like to think so... Even though he sometimes had the tendency to speed up from time to time.
.
~Vrrrrrrrmmmmmmmm!
Landon drove for a bit before finally reaching the streets designated for several Government buildings.
If one were to drive past 3 or even 6 of these streets here, they would see that almost all the buildings there were Government ones.
Taxes, Government offices, Courtrooms, several 'Service Baymard' buildings for I.D's, Driver's licences and whatnot, were all there.
And mixed between these buildings were eateries and several locations for lunch breaks and relaxation too.
Landon drove by with a proud smile on his face.
Who could've thought that they, as a people, had already come this far?

The many people on the sidewalks talking, the dynamic nature of the scene and even the cars driving up and about, reminded Landon a lot about earth.
Of course, amongst those walking about, there were tourists or outsiders too.
Some belonged to the merchant association and were properly headed towards their designated buildings, while others had appointments concerning imports, exports, etc.
The place was buzzing and lively as if it were the downtown area of Baymard.
But that would be a lie.
Anyone from earth who sees Baymard's capital city would be more inclined to choose either District D or District G as the Downtown regions.
Those places had hotels, be they luxury or normal, and had most fun activities spread around them.
District C was more focused on government activities, public schools, Academies, and whatnot.
But District D and G had everything scattered around... Including the Mall that had been under construction for 5 years now, and should get completed this upcoming January.
Of course, only a tiny section of the mall had been used during these years.
But now, with the Grand completion not far away, Landon couldn't wait to show everyone what a real Mall should look like.
.
~Bam.
Landon closed the doors of his car and was diligently greeted by a few people waiting for him outside.
"Afternoon, your majesty." A few ministers and guards spoke enthusiastically while ushering Landon in.
They made them feel both helpless and funny.
His majesty was the only Ruler they had ever seen, who would go out without guards around as he pleased.
Well, to be honest, many rulers did sneak out of their places without guards and disguised themselves as common folks for their purposes.
But the keywords there were 'disguise' and 'sneak.'
However, in his majesty Landon's case, he didn't even bother to hide it.

He just roamed about as he pleased, unless on official celebrations or occasions.
Of course, they realized that he only did this when he was going to meetings
Typically, if he were going to be really out there in public, like going to the zoo or even watching a theatre show, he would have his guards with him at all times.
But if he were running from the lower region to the barracks, to King's Landing, to the government offices and so on, he wouldn't bring his guards at all.
His majesty Landon moved a lot.
And in a day, he might be flying over the entire capital city continuously.
So it's most likely that he found it easier to move without his guards.
Over the years, everyone had seen and understood how he moved.
And amongst many of them, including the Overseers, there were even jokes about how much Landon moved.
Some made bets saying that he couldn't stay in one place for more than 3 hours.
It was also difficult to guess his schedule because he was also a teacher to many lecturers within Baymard too.
Be it teaching new technology, Academy work, surgery or even about the weather.
His majesty was so busy that they didn't know how he did it.
It was truly a surprise that he could do all this and still managed to find time to go out, relax and have fun sometimes.
Well, his secretaries had done a hell of a lot of planning when it came to Landon's weekly schedule.
And because of how busy Landon was, there were times like today... where one of his secretaries would arrive way ahead of time before him, rather than coming to the meetings with him.
It did make sense, considering that his majesty
That's right.
At present, his secretary was in the conference room, distributing and making sure that all equipment and everything else was ready for the go.
So considering all factors, several people had long gotten used to Landon's attitude of incoming meetings like an ordinary person.
Hey... If they were him, who had to run around like that, then they too might premiere to drive themselves about as well.
.
Looking at Landon, Minister Abe, Mister Diana, and everyone else only smiled and followed him in.
Like so, everyone walked into the Federal Ministry of Sports, Tourism, Culture & Entertainment.
Today's meeting was a crucial one.
