章 640: Chapter 293: Naval Arrangements

April 7th.

While the Stone City is bustling with preparations for the ceremony to honor the Guardian of the Nation, the area around Eshan Mansion, hundreds of miles away, is lively as well.

The wide Lu River runs through the mountain ridges, and the torrential current splashes upon the reefs.

This river, known as the source of life for the Chilih people, is now playing its role as a natural barrier to protect the last piece of their land.

The heavy rains just ceased two days ago, and now the river is at its peak.

Originally only half-filled, the riverbed is now full, and there is even a hint that the water will continue to rise and flood the surrounding areas.

Without much thought, it is evident that a flood will come to the land within hundreds of miles if this continues.

However, the raging river has flooded the shores, turning the inaccessible areas into deep-water ports suitable for docking large ships.
