A figure in a black robe flew over from the direction of Shadow Marsh and landed on the Tifeng checkpoint. Immediately, soldiers and resident officers approached and asked the mage's intentions—the mage who mastered flying and those "Mages" trained in mass production are not the same. They come from the Royal Mage Association, have been systematically trained and trained for many years, and are usually stationed in places such as the Communications Tower or the Mage Division. It is obviously important to come in person.
"You should stop the train just now!" As soon as the mage in the black robe landed, he looked annoyed at the magic train that had crossed the border-it did not enter a full acceleration state, but moved on the tracks as if it were taxiing However, the national border line is an invisible wall. After crossing the border, even if the train is slower than the snail, it is not something that the Tifeng people can catch up with. "Damn ... there may be hidden on that train People sneaking across the border! "
The knight at the outpost widened his eyes, immediately glanced back at the direction of the train, and then turned back: "We have checked that there is only the goods on the list and the registered crew members."
"You checked it yourself?"
Looking at the stern gaze of the mage, the young Tifeng officer had no fear. He raised his chest: "I checked it myself, the soldier checked it, and I checked it myself."
"... Okay, I hope you didn't make a mistake," the mage sighed. "Listen, Aldernan has ordered ..."
...
The train stopped at the checkpoint on the Cecil side, and the soldiers began to check the cargo on the train in accordance with the regulations and handed over the necessary customs clearance documents to the train leader. They did everything meticulously and looked nothing abnormal.
A commander wearing an officer-type fused-cut sword on his waist walked into the compartment and glanced at the inside.
Between the crates, there were many silent figures.
The commander nodded slightly and turned to leave.
The carriage door closed again, and the freight carriage returned to darkness again.
"We are safe," came a voice in the dark, "here is the Cecil checkpoint ..."
"It takes a little more time," Yuri whispered. "We have to get off at Baisha Station-there, we will be mixed with the employees of Baisha Mining Company to really set foot on Cecil. Land. "
Wendy's voice sounded aside, "Did you interfere with the knights and soldiers who checked on the train just now?"
"No, that knight is just low-level," Yuri shook her head. "As for the battle mage stationed at the site ... the mass-trained mage can't see high-level spiritual spells. But Orr The situation is different when Durnan's order arrives at these border posts, they will definitely send more powerful formal mages to check the levels. "
"It has nothing to do with us," muttered a priest, "only hope that the compatriots who cross the border behind will pass smoothly ..."
Wendy glanced at the last priest in the dark, closing his eyes slightly, but not speaking.
After this train ... how many more compatriots will cross this border to Cecil under the rule of "outlanders"?
As Yuri said ... maybe many people will stay in Tifeng.
Although the extravagant wanderers are powerful, after all, there are only a few archbishops who really understand and face this power, and in addition to the dream world, the extravagant wanderers are only a mortal emperor in reality. Coupled with the "loyalty" of power deterrence ... it has always been fragile.
The Perpetual Mission, which has lasted for 700 years, is destined to be torn apart. After that, it will become the nutrients of the two human empires. Where does the future go ... who knows.
"Future" may be just like this train, banging forward, constantly going to the distance, and what exactly the distance looks like, to the present Wendy and Yuri, can only imagine.
In the dark, someone whispered to himself: "Cecile ... we are coming ..."
...
The morning sun sprinkled on the lawn in front of the Cecil Palace, and fresh earth drifted slowly along the wind. Gao Wen walked between the trails as usual, and Amber took a small morning jog beside him as usual.
This is the quietest moment of Gao Wen's day.
When the melodious and loud sound of the mechanical clock tower came from the distance, Gao Wen suddenly said, "Last night yesterday, the first successful informer appeared."
Amber did not respond for a moment: "... ah?"
Gao Wen reminded casually: "The eternal sleeper."
As the head of intelligence, Amber immediately understood what Gao Wen was talking about, and she frowned subconsciously: "So fast? It was not at least a week before we predicted that someone would successfully disclose the news to Rosetta Ogu Is it all? "
"Now it seems that we underestimate the Royal Mage Association of Tifeng," Gao Wen shook his head. "They thought of a way to successfully block the mental network in a very short time, even if it was only a small-scale application, it was enough to understand a lot. Things are up. "
"... It seems we have to deal with it earlier," Amber said, "I am afraid that the number of sleepers who can successfully reach Cecil will be half less than expected. Fortunately, the core personnel and most of the technical information should not Something goes wrong ... the rest will fall to Rosetta Augustus. "
"Of course it will fall on him, and he will immediately begin to try to analyze and apply the technology of the eternal sleeper, and if he is open-minded, he will, like me, gather those eternal sleepers who are intercepted in Tifeng, and try to put They all dug it out and stuffed it into his industry association ... maybe ... no, he would definitely do it, "Gao Wen said indifferently." They may soon find a way to improve the communications tower ... "
Amber glanced suspiciously at Gao Wen: "Is this also in your plan?"
"This is not my plan. It is an inevitable change in the situation. Neither Meggol III nor I can reverse it, but fortunately, I don't mind letting things go in this direction," Gao Wen said casually, "like As I said a long time ago, we can't expect our opponents to stand still forever, especially those like Tifeng-it will definitely develop rapidly. What we can do is only develop faster than them and let them There are more pits on the road to development. "
Amber poked his lips and mumbled as he struggled to keep up with Gao Wen's pace: "In short, the most important thing now is that you, the" black man behind the scenes, "must have been exposed to Rosetta."
Gao Wenwenyan was silent for two seconds, then exhaled softly, and looked away: "Yeah ..."
"Do you need to respond to public opinion as soon as possible?" Amber asked, "Tifeng may make a fuss about it-although I think they should not have any clever measures in the" public opinion "area."
"Just look at the arrangement," Gao Wen said casually. "You should already be very experienced in this regard."
"understood."
Amber nodded and responded briefly. Then she saw that Gao Wen didn't mean to continue speaking, and couldn't help asking more: "In addition, you intervened in the Church of the Sleepless, and the traces of activities in Tifeng were exposed. There should be other reactions on Tiffany's side-the trade plan and ambassador plan we just set up ... "
"Trust me, then the business will do the same, the ambassador will do the same, peace as always, Tifeng and Cecil will still be good neighbors," Gao Wen smiled and glanced at amber. "As for private ... anyway we penetrate each other There have always been a lot of spies. Your military intelligence agency has been sending excellent cadres, and the Tifeng undercover agents we have caught in the east and in the provinces in the northeast ... how much is it? "
Amber rolled his eyes: "It's enough to build a city, and a mining group is rich."
"Isn't that enough?" Gao Wen smiled indifferently. "It's just a big country. Of course, Rosetta Augustus will be more alert to us than before. He should also make it in future business orders. There are certain restrictions, but what about the general situation? Behind the peace agreement, whoever of Tiffon and Cecil has really despised others-just in the presence of sufficient national interest, everyone is tacit. "
Seeing Amber's thoughtful look, Gao Wen only exhaled softly, he stopped talking, but thought of something else in his heart.
What he and Amber are talking about are only at the national level, but personally, he doesn't know how Rosetta Augustus would feel about this "outlander wanderer".
There is only one thing he can be sure of: he can't expect someone like Rosetta the Great to be frightened and nervous when faced with a so-called "outlander".
It is more likely that the Emperor Tifeng did not treat his "ancient hero" who "revealed the coffin" as an ordinary human being from the beginning. He is a ghost under this skin. I'm afraid it's meaningless to the ruler.
Because Gao Wen himself has the same mentality-
The Augustus family who ruled Tifeng has been entangled with a "curse" two hundred years ago, and behind this curse, it is always reminiscent of the spiritual pollution of the gods.
Rosetta Augustus also has a "little secret" behind him, and whether this little secret is related to the spiritual pollution of God, and which deity is involved specifically, although it can cause curiosity for Gao Wen , But it will not affect his dealings with the Tifeng Empire.
Because national interests need to do so.
"What did you think of?" Amber's voice suddenly came from the side, interrupting Gao Wen's thoughts for a while. He turned his head and saw a pair of big amber eyes looking at himself. "Sudden expression So dignified ... "
Gao Wen felt it for a while, and casually said what he thought: "Man who sits on the ruler's position can no longer be counted as 'human'."
Amber suddenly looked stunned, and then scratched his face: "Although I don't think you are in this position, but you speak so frankly that I don't know how to continue the conversation ..."
Gao Wen: "... I didn't mean that."
"That's pretty much the same," Amber waved his hands indifferently, and then muttered while keeping up two steps to keep up with Gao Wen's footsteps, "I said you can't go slower? Are you walking?
Gao Wen looked down at his steps and glanced at the amber trotting beside him: "I thought you happened to be running in the morning ..."
The sharp ears of amber immediately rose, and there were even blue tendons on the ears: "... I can't keep up with you !!!"
Gao Wen: "..."
...
When the freight train from the Tifeng Empire flew in the direction of the white sand hills in the sun, another train was rolling over the Gorgon River, which had gradually thawed and the water level was about to be full. The newly repaired track speeds towards the south.
The red-haired Asarina was sitting near the window, staring wide at the grass and trees and the relay piles passing by, her eyes full of curiosity.
She has been to this human kingdom, to the south of this kingdom, that was twenty years ago.
Twenty years later, everything here has a freshness that she never imagined.
It's only been twenty years.
The Dragon Seal Witch looked back and looked at Sir Goros, who was sitting opposite him: "Look, this thing is really much faster than the Earth Dragon Beast ..."
The beasts that the Dragons came to stay at this time are all left in the north. Those traditional means of transportation have completed their mission, and they are not adapted to the climate and soil of the southern country. The Cecilians have prepared more convenient and more convenient for guests. Advanced transportation. At first, Sir Goros was somewhat skeptical of these rumbling machines, but now it seems that Sir Sir has been enjoying it.
"I don't know how the Cecil made this thing," said Sir Goros, in a curious tone. "If they work in colder places, that's a good thing ..."
"But it's not easy to make it travel through the mountains in the north," said Azarena. "There is not much plain in the Duchy of the Holy Dragon."
"This can be solved for the Dragonborn, isn't it?" Sir Goros said with a smile. "The key is to see if the Cecil technology can be sold and how to sell it-from your old acquaintance attitude Look, they seem to be happy to sell these new things, as long as the price is right. "
"Sir Golos, I never knew you were a businessman," Azarina looked up and down Sir Goros, "and when you were talking about the word 'old acquaintance' ... it seemed like something was going on Mean? "
Sir Goros was expressionless: "This is your illusion, Ms. Asharena."
"Hopefully," Azarina looked out of the window again. "Ah, we seem to be crossing a level in the mountains ..."
