Steel Steam and Flame

When Lyle left, he left a well-marked and explained map. It was the Imperial History School. It marked the location of Shake's dormitory in the school, the places he frequented, and the daily route map in the school—

Seems to stay in school all the time and rarely go out. The facilities in the Imperial History School are relatively complete, and they are fully satisfied with daily life. It is indeed one of the main reasons that there is no need to go out. In addition to the office building and research room for research needs, Shake's frequent places seem to be the cafeteria, the school's library, and the school's internal construction, which has become one of the famous historical relics collections in Manoma.

A simple information is attached to the map, introducing the current situation of Shake. On the one hand, he is still a student at the Imperial History School and needs to complete higher-level studies; on the other hand, he is also one of the researchers employed by the school, following the famous professor, whose main research direction is ancient history, including ancient ruins and paleontology.

At the end of the data, it is mentioned that the study of strange characters is not a research direction by default, but it actually exists. Shake is also engaged in related research and studies, and is currently valued by the Imperial History School, one of the main reasons for being able to decipher strange characters.

And for another reason, Cassia knew that it was the help of Hae. Whether it is the protection that has always existed around Shake, the troublesome handling in the Imperial History School, or the promotion and various places in research, etc., it is very easy to do it with the power in his hands. .

The Imperial History School is only one of the affiliated schools of the seminary. Every year, freshmen come from all regions of the Empire, both commoners and nobles. From this, you can know the specifications of the history school itself. This is similar to the Imperial Heavy Industry School, without the many restrictions of the seminary and the military school, and you can become a student if you meet the conditions. Compared with the other affiliated schools of the two, whether it is a history school or a heavy industry school, the nature of the school itself is more, and there are not many troubles in the aristocratic circle.

From another point of view, Cassia and Hae also hope that their noble character is more. Whether it is protection, or the operation of various things, once the set of rules for nobles and family forces are applied, they can achieve their goals more easily. In terms of handling the trouble, it is easier because there are more options of "make it a corpse if it doesn't work".

Cassia knew that Hao must have dealt with a lot of trouble over the years. Even if these troubles are in the cognition of Cassia and Hao, they are not even troubles. But for Shake who has not undergone surgery and is still an ordinary person, the safety issue will not be easily guaranteed. Because it is too fragile, a single collision can cause fragmented results.

After reading the map and information, Cassia, who returned to the hall of the villa base, finally breathed a sigh of relief. One of the results you want to see the most is to keep it up. Manoma is the capital of the empire, and the probability of being affected by war during war is also very low. Most of the headquarters of the Quartet forces here are not a bunch of decorative buildings, and their defense capabilities are very strong.

The only thing to watch out for is the chaos of wartime. Under the premise that the intensity of the chaos cannot be predicted, it is necessary to make a backup protection plan. Cassia has already thought of some solutions, but needs the cooperation and help of Hacker and others.

Burn the material to ashes and flush it down the drain. The villa base is not far from the Imperial History School. Cassia, who planned to leave at 4 pm, took advantage of the two or three hours in the middle to prepare for the southern forest in advance. Delya has already prepared the corresponding things, and the only thing missing now is a sturdy off-road vehicle that will go to the forest after arriving in the forest border city.

I made a request to Lyle, presumably after arriving, I will be able to see the limousine directly in the parking lot outside the airport.

After sorting out the things in the base of the villa, Cassia set off on time at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, took a backpack and packed two sets of books as gifts, and added a slightly thicker clothes to make herself look like a normal person. In the dark evening hours of autumn, he went to the Imperial History School. Using the ID card prepared by Ha, everything went very smoothly.

I thought it would take some time to find Shake, but with the mood that I might as well go take a look, Cassia walked to the main gate of the Historical Relic Collection and saw Shake who was about to enter. With materials in hand and other people around, it seems to be an activity to go to the collection hall.

Standing aside, Cassia locked it with a sonic pulse, and then entered it without disturbing it. Can detect a protective network centered on Sako's frequented places and daily routes - seven members, three third-stage, four second-stage. The people chosen by Hao should all be from the Hill family. They have done a very good job in concealment and disguise. At least they have been fully integrated into the daily atmosphere of the Imperial History School.

While visiting and waiting, when it was already dark outside, the group finally dispersed, and the activities and meetings finally ended.

Shake walked out of the collection with two other female members, but parted ways halfway through and went to the library alone. Cassia still followed behind, blending into the few students around. Like Shake, she appeared under the lights of one side after another, and then disappeared in the shadows.

At this moment, Cassia suddenly remembered that at the beginning, there seemed to be such a scene in the heavy industry school life that he had longed for - the door was open at night, the lights were sufficient, there was no time limit, there were street lights on the way to go, and there were people just like him. People who work hard will go to the library to read books and borrow the materials they need. It's just that there was no library in the small town at that time, and they were all square factory boxes. The only difference was the paint color of the iron shed. The chimney of the boiler emits black smoke during the day and black smoke with sparks at night, and the sky can lose its color, not to mention other things.

After all, the dream has not been realized, but it can be said that it has been realized, but it has become a military school that has no distinction between night and day, and is well lit all day. There is also no time limit. There are street lights on the way, and there are people who work harder than themselves. Every day, they line up to write applications for firearms and ammunition, go to the training ground to practice shooting with various firearms, and hone martial arts and swordsmanship.

"Hu,,," Cassia shook her head, always feeling that the gap between vision and reality seems to be very small, but the reality is extremely huge. He no longer thought about it, and followed Shake into the library.

Silence descended, except for the low voice of the staff, only the sound of footsteps with different timbres and sounds spread. Shake's goal is very clear, it seems to be to understand the parts that were not clear in the historical relics collection just now, and quickly go to the corresponding area to find the corresponding information.

Silently reciting the number and name of the book, Shake walked into the rows of bookshelves and quickly found the book she needed according to the number. She took it off, looked at the cover to make sure, and when she was about to go through the borrowing procedures, only to find that there was a row of bookshelves and two rows of books on the other side, a man was looking at her with a smile.

The intuition gave Shake an inexplicable sense of familiarity. She looked at the man opposite slightly suspiciously. Although the face did not have a corresponding name in her memory, it was an intuition that was more effective than the perception of a high-level surgeon. Let her guess who the man looking at her is at the next moment.

Taking a deep breath, then exhaling, Shake nodded, smiled, and said softly, "Mr. Tussos, because of work, have you passed by this time? It's been a long, long time since we last met."

"It's not a passing by. The work that lasted for a few years was completed recently. Fortunately, the result was good. I got a rare rest time, so I came to see you." Cassia replied softly, and patted her face again. , "The reason for the work, made the necessary attire,,,"

,,,,,,

At ten o'clock the next morning, in a black limousine driving on the road, through the front window, I could already see dozens of airships taking off and landing in front. The humming of the lifting device was blocked by the limousine. The vibration of the air can still be detected by Cassia's keen perception.

"As for Shake, thank you, Mr. Ha."

"The translation of the strange characters is worthy of this protection and investment." Hai didn't answer directly, "Mr. Cassia, do you remember the dragon skeleton fossil from Brino in the gray area? The strange characters above have been translated. , pointing to a cemetery in the empire. However, it seems that it was explored by high-level surgeons a few years ago, and nothing will be left."

"There are still memories." Cassia nodded, "Miss Shake's translation?"

He acquiesced, "There has been no more intelligence information about the southern forest recently. The speed at which the polluted dragons that go there are cleared is the fastest among the extreme areas. There are also polluted second-class creatures running. But no matter how you look at it, it’s all intentional. The family has no more interest in the southern forest, and the members sent in the past are less than one-third of the other extreme areas.”

"Just go and see, that's all. The other forces are roughly the same."

"The resistance and self-purification of the southern forest itself is higher than that of other regions, right?" Cassia gave his own explanation. Once inside the forest, it will be more convenient to move. If the pollution really helps, it is completely possible to do the transfer.”

The sound of the whistle from the front interrupted the words of the two slightly. After a short silence, Cassia said as if saying goodbye, "Thank you for many things, Mr. Hai. But there are more things after that, I need to trouble you. Delia and the others will gradually move towards the empire, and the connection at the Flame Alliance can only be based on Mr. Hai. In addition, if possible, the connection with Mr. Zero needs to be maintained.”

"Well,,, maybe there is one more person who can cooperate, Ficino Medici of the Nature Association. I can try to contact, if he doesn't change his mind."

Cassia sighed here, and the limousine also merged into the traffic heading for the parking lot, "There is also Sisia at the Fire Alliance, if Mr. Hai has the opportunity to meet her, I hope you can help me make up some lessons. Cognitive and thinking, I'm not a good teacher."

Hacker tacitly accepted, and the limousine entered the parking lot at the same time and stopped quickly. He smiled and said, "Mr. Cassia, I look forward to meeting you next time. But next time, the information about you should be spread one step ahead. I think there will be a lot of people looking forward to this step."

"This is not something to look forward to, for me." Cassia opened the door, "Perhaps, the arrival of the Red Star is more worth looking forward to..."
