The locomotive sped on the wilderness, and a smoke dragon rolled up at the back of the car. The oncoming wind pulled the knight's silver hair to the rear. Lain, wearing a goggle, was expressionless and only kept blasting the speed of the locomotive to the end of the oil needle. It was a terrible speed of more than 300 kilometers per hour!
The wilderness is dead.
This is true silence.
Under the fire attack of the ogudus family and the Yingling hall, there is no space for any mutant beast to survive in the wilderness that used to be a battlefield. They either died in the war or have gone far away. Leaving the flattened city ruins, there have been large areas of scorched earth.
Scorched earth, the black earth, suffered more serious consequences than radiation pollution after being attacked by war. The explosion of large amount of explosives, the ravage of various war machines, and the power of capable people. The damage caused by these things is far more far-reaching and more serious than simple radiation pollution. It can be predicted that in the next few decades or even hundreds of years, there will be no grass here.
Even the most tenacious variant plants cannot take root in this scorched soil. However, depending on the purification ability of the planet itself, we don't know how long it will take to recover. What's more, the purification ability of this planet wrapped in radiation clouds is not good.
Lein sometimes finds it ironic that mankind needs to invest a lot of resources and time to make little progress in purifying the environment. He is not a pacifist, but he also hates war.
Unfortunately, the war is beyond his control. Those who can control the war are eager for it to happen.
As he drove through the wilderness, lain seemed to see something and soon looked at a small hillside in the distance.
But how fast he is now. He doesn't even have a second to stay. The hillside is infinitely far away. But lain still saw two figures, which seemed to be a pair of travelers. People wear hoods and cloaks that can cover their faces. There are long objects arched out behind one of them, which should be something like guns. And the yellow, strange creature lying on his shoulder.
A person who travels on foot on the mainland. These people have a variety of identities, including displaced people forced to leave their homes, wandering mercenaries, adventurers who work alone, or wild thugs who rob their homes. But no matter what kind, lain was surprised to see the figure of tourists in this war-torn wilderness.
Now I'm afraid I've heard the news of the war between the dark Council and the Yingling hall, not to mention other human gathering areas. Those who hear this news will still come to the battlefield, either to join the capable or mercenaries of both sides of the battle, or to pick up the leak.
The so-called leak picking means picking up cheap. After the war, a lot of materials will be left, from chariots, guns and even corpses. Of course, if you want to rob things between two giants, you have to have enough matching strength as backing, otherwise you will die.
Look at those two thin figures, it seems that neither of them is.
Maybe it's just a simple passing by, lein thought.
At the foot of the wild hillside where he went far away, the figure walking in front stretched out his hands. His fingers were long and flexible. He gently took off his hood, and his long silver gray hair like Rhine was dancing in the wild air. The silver haired owner said unexpectedly, "well, the man who passed by just now is not the parliamentary knight who appeared in the shadow capital three years ago?"
It's a girl's voice. But the companion behind her chose silence. The girl seemed to be used to it. She touched a round creature on her shoulder, so the creature made a childish voice: "Lala!"
Before dusk, lein returned to Phoenix smoothly. Phoenix has now been taken over by the Augustus family, and the flag of Phoenix is no longer flying on the head of the city, but the emblem of Augustus. When lein returned to the city, soldiers had already led the bullet locomotive for him, while lein himself got into a car waiting at the gate of the city.
The car drove to the city master's house, which was the residence of general Morgan, the former master of the city. Now the owner of Phoenix is no longer owned by the white haired old man, but the ogudus family has preserved general Morgan's residence and other related properties. For general Morgan, this is an extremely decent result.
Now the first knight Xiuya and her guard are about to arrive in Phoenix, so the only place in the city that can receive her is the city master's house.
Therefore, after receiving the news, lain has informed Phoenix to prepare for reception, and the city master's house is now busy.
"Hurry up, hurry up, fresh lamb chops and vegetables will be sent to the kitchen right away!"
"Damn it, what are those cooks waiting for?"
"Where's the Baker? Come and help!"
"Who can bring me strawberries? How can I make strawberry jam without it?"
When lein arrived at the city Lord's house, he heard these chaotic voices. People were running around the mansion, and no one even had time to look at lein, let alone say hello. General Morgan, who was only dressed in a suit, had been waiting at the gate. When he saw lain, he smiled and said, "Sir, you're back."
Lein nodded and apologized, "I'm so sorry, general Morgan. According to the agreement, we wouldn't disturb your life. We just want to come to Phoenix!"
General Morgan waved his hand and said, "it doesn't matter. It's my honor to receive the chief of the bloody knight and the distinguished daughter of the speaker. But our small place is relatively simple, and I don't know whether Miss Xiuya likes it."
Lain said with a wry smile, "that's not up to her. After all, we are the front line, not her mansion in the eternal night city."
Then lain was busy. He took a bath first, and then the maid put on a white and straight suit for him, tied a bow tie and combed his hair. Lain changed in the mirror. From the bloody soldier on the front line, he immediately became a graceful noble childe, and the eyes of several maidens lit up.
It was dusk when he finished these tasks, and general Morgan's voice sounded outside the door: "Sir, miss Xiuya is here."
At the gate to the east of Phoenix, lain saw a motorcade coming towards Phoenix along the road. Driving directly in front is an off-road vehicle, which has obviously been modified. In addition to the fact that the car body is much more rugged than an ordinary off-road vehicle, the four wheels are also exaggerated, and the four exhaust pipes on both sides of the rear of the car constantly emit gray smoke dragons.
There were no guns in the car, but from a distance, you could see a blue hair flying in the air.
That's Xiuya's hair. Long blue hair is her logo. With her, of course, SUVs don't need any heavy weapons, because she herself is far more than any heavy weapons.
Behind the SUV, there are hundreds of motorcycles. The knights on these motorcycles are elegant guards and members of the glacier. But lein remembered that when the eldest lady in the parliament pulled up the flag and went to the black earth, the screen name fell under her skirt and thousands of people volunteered to join the guard glacier. But now there are only more than 100 people left. It seems that the expedition on the black earth in the past two years is very cruel.
But because of this, all the more than 100 people who survived were calm and generous, and everyone looked awe inspiring and easy to provoke.
When the motorcade came to the gate of the city, it stopped and jumped down from the SUV.
Xiuya lanrost, height 168cm. Dressed in the uniform of a bloody knight, it seemed that for the sake of convenience in battle, the original robe was changed to a short lean. Below the short lean was a white red waist, revealing a sexy navel. The lower body is dark red tight leather pants, emphasizing Xiuya's slender and straight leg line. When her legs were together, there was no gap.
Her long blue hair danced like ice clouds. The two-year campaign did not leave any trace on Xiuya's face. Her arrogant temperament filled with pride in her beauty was still the same, and she was clearly the person she looked up to. But somehow, a feeling of being looked down upon came into being in front of her.
That's a supercilious look, but what's fatal is that this woman has the strength to despise all sentient beings.
It hasn't changed at all. Lein sighed, welcomed him, smiled and said, "welcome, miss Xiuya."
"Remove the young lady and call me major general, I don't need such a weak title!" Xiuya momentum Ling humanitarianism.
Lain smiled bitterly. He knew Xiuya was difficult to get along with, but unexpectedly, he hit a nail. For lain, this may be the only thing. Next, Xiuya stabbed the tunnel: "we are hungry all the way. Are you ready to eat?"
"Yes, I have arranged a reception for major general at the city master's residence," replied lain.
"Banquet?" Xiuya uttered a loud laugh: "If I remember correctly, is this the front line? The ogudus family is indeed the largest and strongest powerful family in our Parliament. Even on the front line, they can hold a reception banquet. In that case, why have you been beaten back instead of advancing to the enemy camp in the West for several months since the beginning of the war? Do you waste your resources on this I don't know. Was it at the so-called party? "
The first two sentences can be said to be gentle. In the last few sentences, Xiuya has been vigorous. The fierce momentum of iron soldiers showed from her, constantly reminding lain that the woman is no longer the first knight, but also a major general!
Lein smiled bitterly. When she hadn't set out for the war two years ago, the eldest lady held a lot of banquets. It's common to have a big banquet in January and a small banquet in three or four days. Her extravagance is as outstanding as her appearance. But two years later, the extravagant eldest lady is now blaming her own waste. Lein really has the impulse to kill herself.
Before he had time to say anything, Xiuya's conversation changed again: "forget it, for your passionate sake. I'll forgive you this time. Just prepare food for one person, and greet my soldiers with the rest. Remember, don't lower the specification privately. They must eat what I eat!"
Then Xiuya went straight into the gate.
Lain hurriedly followed, leaving general Morgan stunned. The white haired old general finally saw what moodiness was. After returning to his senses, he quickly called her ice guard into the city. But these people were expressionless and exuded a special flavor.
It's the smell of climbing out of the dead.
In the city Lord's residence, the banquet began to skip all links. Xiuya had only one order. Put the food on the stage immediately. All irrelevant personnel withdrew, leaving only lain and two waiters.
So facing a table of food, Xiuya began to eat. In her hand, knives and forks were flying. She moved quickly. The delicious lamb chops quickly turned into a regular cube under her knife and fork, and then disappeared into her lovely mouth. At the same time, she is very elegant. She eats very fast, but she doesn't give people a sense of urgency.
In this way of eating with both efficiency and elegance, Xiuya keeps on cooking in front of her. In just ten minutes, she has eliminated 20 kilograms of lamb chops, a lot of desserts and cakes, plus several kilograms of fruit. Xiuya finally stopped and gracefully wiped her lips with a napkin to show that she was full.
In the whole process, lain didn't even finish a small piece of lamb chop, only drank half of the wine.
Put the napkin on the table and Xiuya exhaled, "I haven't eaten so much for a long time. Sometimes I have to eat raw meat when I'm in a hurry in the ghost place of the black earth. Alas, it's really a demon like day."
Lein heard that Xiuya shouldn't have been so happy in the past two years, so he said, "if you still need it, major general, I can ask the kitchen to cook some dishes you like."
"No need." Xiuya shook her head and said, "food is precious. There is no need to waste it on me alone." she smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for two years. Xiao lain is much taller and more handsome."
Lein warned, "if you are old, I think I should be older than major general you."
Xiuya smiled and said, "little lain, there is a saying in the East that the winner is the first. If you win, you can call me xiaoxiuya. I won't mind at all."
After lein considered the proposal carefully, he thought it over. So he said, "then major general Xiuya, forgive me for asking, why are you here this time?"
"Relax."
Xiuya said casually, but she didn't want this answer. She almost made lain vomit an old blood. Then Xiuya chuckled and said, "I lied to you."
She stood up and said positively, "listen, I mainly brought my father's message this time. In view of the significance and importance of this war, my father decided to hand over the blood cavalry and the servant corps to your big brother Hart. Of course, I didn't come in vain. My guard glacier will go to the battlefield tomorrow, temporarily return to the blood cavalry establishment and hand it over to your big brother for unified command."
"And you?" lein asked cautiously.
Xiuya went to lain's table, sat down on the table and tilted her legs. She said to lain with a very charming expression: "don't worry, I won't rob your eldest brother's command. To be honest, I'm not interested in this war. It's really boring. So is my father. It's better to beat the black earth for me with such resources."
In the face of Xiuya's matchless beauty, lain regarded it as a beast poison, quickly stood up and withdrew a little and said, "the speaker has his own consideration. Major general, it's better not to guess more."
"Come on, little lain, I don't know you yet. Your arrogance is not under me. Don't pretend to be loyal to my father. But after I came back, I found an interesting thing in the mission file of blood horse." Xiuya smiled at Mimi.
Lain's back is cold. Generally speaking, it's estimated that what makes Xiuya interesting will not be a good thing.
"I don't know what major general Xiuya means?" lain asked.
"Just call my name when it's just the two of us."
Lein nodded, and he began to get used to the fickleness of elegance.
Xiuya smiled at him and said: "It's really strange that there was a record of failure in xiaolein's mission file. That mission record was two years ago. Xiaolein, you took the task of executing a wild mercenary. It was a piece of cake for you, but you failed. The reason for the failure was the intervention of valkiri. At that time, we and the Yingling hall had not been torn Cheek, the principle of the basic peace treaty. They took the man away on the pretext of extradition. Naturally, it would not be a small role for the goddess of war to intervene personally, so I continued to track down the man named zero. As a result, I was fascinated by him! "
Lain couldn't help laughing bitterly and said, "it's not very good."
Xiuya ignored him and said: "This is really an excellent man who has emerged in asgat in just two or three years. Last year, he participated in asgat's expedition to the alien circle in the Far West. What's surprising is that after he came back, he changed and became the leader of the alien community. In addition, it is said that he and asgat have also reached a number of cooperation, one of which is in Youying Cooperate to develop a city called the city of dawn near the canyon. Little lain, do you think this man is very capable? "
"You've said so much that I don't seem to have room for denial," sighed lain.
"So, how can I not be fascinated by such a capable man? You should understand, don't say that he is more capable than me now, even if there are not many or even no men who can stand beside me." Xiuya lamented.
Lain couldn't help but straighten his chest.
Xiuya smiled again, patted him on the shoulder and said, "little lain is pretty good, and your big brother Hart is also very good. But you have today's status, and many are supported by the family. But that man is different. He was born in the wilderness and has nothing. So, I am the same kind as him!"
When it comes to this word, Xiuya's eyes jump with a spark called danger. Lein's heart sank, and what he was most worried about finally happened.
