Steel Steam and Flame

"I don't know what the team leader is now." Hesley stood behind Delya and looked out of the store, and said after a while, "I thought of when I found the team leader and was about to join. At that time. The head of the regiment is very young, a student in a military school. Now that he counts the time carefully, six years have passed, and he didn't even notice it."

"It's very fast indeed." Delya continued to build and play with the bouquets around him. Although most of them cannot be sold, they will eventually be thrown away and put in the trash can. "I knew the head of the group at the beginning, and he was in his student days. At that time, he was performing tasks in Brino. Because of some connections, I have cooperated with him. But since then, the group leader seems to have the attributes to attract all kinds of big events."

"Going to the grey area of ​​Brino destroyed a big station there. Although it was just a participation, the main reason is absolutely inseparable from him. After that, on the one hand, I can't survive in Brino anymore. , After all, I was also involved in a lot of things. On the other hand, the group leader happened to have the idea of ​​developing his own power. Under the semi-invited meaning, I became the second member of the Steam Knights established at that time."

Delya breathed a sigh of relief at this time: "Like you, no one would have thought that the Knights and the business would develop to what they are now in a few years. Of course, you and I would certainly not have thought of the dangers that accompany the leader. It will get bigger and bigger."

"Get used to it." Hessley doesn't care about this kind of thing. "Perhaps I rarely participate in the various events of the Knights. Most of the time, I use it as a force to solve some problems that ordinary members can't solve. There is no real feeling here, right."

"Everyone is used to it, me and you, Waters, and the rest of the Steam Knights. Otherwise, we will not continue to stay in the Knights. This kind of experience can be very exciting to remember occasionally-it turns out a lot At that time, among the various news and events that were passed on in the dark world, he was actually one of the unknown participants." Delya who said this naturally laughed and looked very happy.

"Unknowingly, I also like this kind of life." She continued afterwards. Seeing that the time was approaching five and a half and the sky was dark, she took care of her mood and hid her joy in her heart, "There are still many things that need to be moved. As far as possible in two days, we will bid farewell to this place."

"Hoo,,," she took a deep breath, "Next, there will be no leisure time. In the past, we have always avoided searches by various power families, hiding ourselves. After that, no matter how cautious our plans and actions are, we always Traces will be caught somewhere. This is proactively exposing ourselves, and danger will follow. But we must delay the time of discovery as much as possible!"

"Isn't this the same as my plan not long ago?" Hesley said, "Fake the illusion that the team leader is alive and has returned. However, in my plan, it is unknown whether the team leader has returned. Now, it is certain. Status."

"Do you know what I want to know the most, or what I am most looking forward to?" He suddenly asked, with a strong smile on his face, "The group of people in the empire finally analyzed this from various intelligence What kind of mood will it be when the result comes out, and what kind of expression will it look like on the face?"

Delya shook her head and sighed without answering. But in her heart, she actually had the same thoughts as Hesley. This is just a normal human emotion.

She still reminded Hesley that this kind of interest is kept in her heart, and the time is up, maybe there will be unexpected gains.

"The first thing next is to go back to the empire. I don’t know if the Empire’s military headquarters recruited soldiers in large numbers, and whether those people we arranged for it can help. In addition, the development in the empire and in Manoma During that time, we did not remove Tussini with us, but among the people who stayed, can we find the person who passed the message. This step requires careful and careful thinking."

"I can do this," Hessley interjected. "It's been a long time since I went back to the Empire. It's okay to go and see it."

Delya immediately shook her head: "I will consider you later, but not now." Hessley can only wave his hand and continue to carry things to the box vehicle beside the flower shop, leaving Delya holding the scissors to send out there. "Kaka" sounded, but from the beginning to the end, not a single branch or leaf was cut off and fell on the ground.

"My lord, it has been determined that the ninth main transportation team was attacked by the enemy, the cargo was intercepted, and all members of the transportation team died." At nine o'clock in the evening, under a street light in the airport, the person in charge inhaled half a cigarette in one breath, and then reported. The news he received.

"Yeah." The words on the other end were still flat, "Just make up for the weapons and equipment that should have gone to the front team."

"Know..." Before the person in charge had finished speaking, the electronic noise came into his ears. Glancing at the communicator, he finished smoking the cigarette, and lit the second cigarette when he breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, on the other side of the border of a small country, in a top-floor house of a seven-story building, warm lighting and heating create two completely different environments inside and outside the window.

A man put the microphone on the communication machine and looked at the two adjutants standing by the door.

"Did you find any traces?"

The two adjutants shook their heads at the same time: "All the members of the surveillance team following the ninth main transport team were almost attacked together with the transport team. Every five minutes, the surveillance team will send a feedback message. When the feedback disappeared-only three minutes had passed by then-the two of us rushed over immediately. Counting the time spent on the road, it was only fifteen minutes later to get to the scene... "The speaker swallowed at this time." saliva.

"Only the shells, the bullets embedded in the building or the ground, and the blood that has no more time to clean up. There is no corpse left. This is the case of the Ninth Major Transport Team, and the same is true of our monitoring team following behind."

The man nodded at this moment, already thinking about the whole process before and after the attack: "According to the information reported by Aiqi about the Cresci region, plus the attack that occurred two hours ago, it can be determined that he is by Sisia’s side. , There is indeed a strong protector. In terms of characteristics, ,, and perception are extremely sensitive. It is very good at temperature perception, or other perception-related abilities."

"Actually, the surveillance team following the transport team was exposed from the beginning?" the adjutant asked at this time.

"Not only the surveillance team, but the enemy attracted by our release of information is also completely in the eyes of this protector. It is precisely because of knowing the location of the two and the time of their approach that the enemy attacked the transport team and the surveillance team was attacked. , These two unrelated things can happen almost at the same time."

"The result he wants is to deliberately create the illusion that Sisia has died in the attack." The man laughed at this time and looked at the two thinking adjutants, "Of course, this illusion is for the Thornbird training ground. It is for the managers here, not for me and for the enemies he thinks. He knows that we can guess this based on a lot of intelligence information."

"It's a very successful plan, and I guessed what I thought." The man praised, "It seems that if you don't divert a little energy, you can't deal with these bugs chasing from the inside of the alliance." He thought for a moment, right. The two lieutenants said, "We will gather our own members now. The help of Aiqi and several other allies will have to wait four or five days before arriving in the small country. If the enemy knows this news, those who disperse will be very dangerous."

"In addition, I will write a letter. Tomorrow afternoon, Mr. Forno's deputy of the Nature Association will pass by here, and you will pass it to him for me. Please also ask you to prepare the gift for me."

When the two adjutants left, the man left the sofa, poured a glass of wine, and went to the window. The time here is several hours later than that at the airport, and it has not officially entered the night yet. A light snow drifted for two days, and the cold wind gradually increased at noon. It may become heavy snow tonight.

"I don't know if your preparations are adequate. The people from the Nature Association are trying to accumulate their contribution value by relying on the number of corpses."

"Next?" In the hotel, Sisia asked when he closed the door and opened the suitcase. Three long metal boxes were placed diagonally in the suitcase, two blunderbuss and three clip-on pistols squeezed into the remaining space, and golden bullets filled the remaining gaps, flashing Light without temperature.

"Resting, replenishing a lot of meat, sleeping." Cassia gave the answer, "I will buy a communicator early tomorrow morning, and then follow the words of the two captains, try to find the merchants in the dark world that occupies the city, and sell three pneumatics. Weapons and firecrackers, get a sum of money that is enough to be used for a long time."

"In addition, UU read www.ukanshu.com to collect the most recent information. There is still a distance from the frontiers of the St. Dorag Empire, but all kinds of information can definitely be passed on. You need to know a lot of information, about everything that happened recently. A complete understanding. Even this information may be just appearance."

"After that, you will meet with Mr. Kolqueva?" Sisia tried to think, "Together to develop a plan for the trafficking network boss?"

"No, we will wait afterwards. Maybe a few days, maybe ten days." Cassia began to correct, "This time the enemy attacking the transport team is just his test. Next time, no one can be sure that the enemy standing in front of us is. His subordinates. At present, the frontier of the Saint-Dorrag Empire gathers elites from several countries. Corqueva will have a headache if it encounters it, and must be treated with extreme care."

"The boss of the sales network came a while earlier than us, and he knows the situation there. Therefore, it is impossible for him not to take advantage of this group of elites who are there."

"Compared to this boss, we still have more important things to do."
