The Etiquette of the Soldiers is To Meet Up
Chapter 14: Nocturnal
At night, the night like a black velvet curtain spreads quietly in the sky, and the pale moonlight rippling like water is scattered, like the finest silk, flowing on the empty streets, and there is a quiet and lonely atmosphere between the sky and the earth.
Alan is wearing a linen Shield protective suit with an ordinary linen gown. He wears a black hawk tactical belt around his waist, and a pair of tactical trousers on his lower body. A pair of black as if night is on his feet. Tactical boots.
The azure blue rose was placed in the gun pouch under the arm, the tactical belt on the waist was inserted with the shadow of the sheath dagger, and a full 4 magazines were also placed. It's not that you can't put more, but if you put it down, it's inconvenient to hide, and it's inconvenient to move.
After thinking about it, he pulled out another magazine and fixed the palm-sized knight statue on the desk to his waist.
God belongs to God, and Caesar belongs to Caesar. Although he didn't want to admit it, the rumors that he didn't know true or false in his memory made him feel a little uneasy. He was not the kind of self-deception, even The traversal has happened, and some strange events are understandable.
If the opponent is a human, then he has enough confidence. After all, a person will die if he is killed, but if it is those weird things, then he may be at a loss. It is not the lack of courage and confidence, but the imbalance of information. So he took the only thing with a high probability and mystery that he had on hand, and it might come in handy.
Allen stood in front of his desk in the attic, fully armed, and looked at the distant night sky through the open wooden window.
The scenery under the night is the same as usual, some of the noise of the wind is only the cry of birds and the roar of steam that has dissipated in the wind, but when you listen carefully, Alan can still hear the extremely subtle hum, that It was the last cry of Xia Chan, who was fate shortly after entering the autumn sun.
Alan watched the quiet night quietly, listening to the agitated bugs, but his mood was unexpectedly peaceful. Phew, letting out a long sigh of air, Allen put on a navy blue mid-length trench coat, and covered all the symbols of killing, fighting, and death under the color of silence.
Without opening the door, Allen turned out the window quite familiarly. His attic was not low, almost five stories high, but he was not worried at all.
It's not that he is so big-hearted, but because this huge fortress has changed its appearance in a long time. Not to mention that the various measures used to defend against foreign enemies in the past have been completely transformed into buildings suitable for people’s livelihood, and because Charles VII the Great opened the scientific and technological revolution, the already popular heating, gas, drinking water and other pipelines have been introduced. Thousands of households.
The castle where Allen lives has already undergone related transformations. However, because the castle was originally a church and then turned into a military fortress, its complex structure made the city government workers who wanted to install water pipes somewhat helpless. There are always more solutions than problems. After a series of discussions, the construction workers decided to install various pipes on the outer edge of the castle, which solved the problem.
Allen is now climbing down the complicated pipeline. The black eagle tactical glove on his hand rubs the special paint layer on the red metal pipeline, so that he can be attached to the pipeline stably, not because of his hands. The sweat was gradually oozing and fell off. The powerful muscles bulged slightly on the back, the smooth muscle lines on the slender arms stretched and contracted, and the faintly visible blue veins under the skin were entangled like a large python.
Allen was falling rapidly on the outer wall of the castle. Although it is still autumn, because of the peculiar northern climate, every household has turned on the heating. It is fine during the day, and can barely survive the day, and the temperature will drop almost at night. Frozen people.
In the era when heating was not invented, it was actually very common to wear cotton-padded jackets and gauze at noon in the North. Allen couldn't help but feel grateful. Fortunately, because the pipes were installed outside, in order to protect the metal pipes made of red copper, they painted a special coating that can prevent corrosion, rust and heat insulation. Let Allen not end up with braised pig's feet.
The navy blue windbreaker was hunting in the night breeze, but a few meters away was dissipated in the noisy wind. In less than a minute, Allen had landed from the five-story attic to the ground and looked around. After finding that no one noticed him, he quickly left the place.
Allen walked on the empty street, the bright moonlight quietly scattered, dividing the ground into a blend of shadow and light, while observing the surroundings, while walking quietly in the shadows, and at the same time constantly moving in the process of marching. The wrist dropped sharply just now, even with his extremely superior physique, it was a little uncomfortable.
It's not that he doesn't want to be slower and more secure, mainly because although the curfew is enforced tonight.
Before he got down, he had already taken a close look at his surroundings. It is reasonable to say that no one would notice his movements, but who knows in case a resident suddenly looks out, or a patrolman who does not know where he is patrolling suddenly comes here. He is located in the region, so he can only fall as quickly as possible, lest someone really discover his whereabouts, after all, if he is really caught, he really can't tell.
The long night tonight is extremely quiet, even the custom streets and commercial districts that used to be the city that never sleeps are quiet at this moment. Under the protection of darkness, Alan ran toward the north of Glia City.
The apartment that Allen lived in was transformed from a fort, located in the northwestern part of the western district of Gloria, closer to the city center. This fortress was built to defend against foreign enemies and prevent accidents.
However, the fortress’s predecessor was the Cathedral of Dawn, and it has been more than a hundred years since it was a fortress. In this century, the scientific and technological revolution led by Charles VII and Alengel the Great is even more rapid. Development. Major cities have continued to expand, and Terran territories have continued to expand, so the fortress that was originally located on the edge of the city can now be regarded as entering the main city.
The East District of Gloria City, which is multi-rooted and full of crime and blood, developed at this stage. At the beginning, it was only outsiders who were unable to obtain the status of urban residents. They stayed outside temporarily, followed by adventurers and mercenaries outside. In a very short period of time, through some kind of shady trade, this muddy and foul-smelling area has developed, and it has become a tumor on the body of Gloria City.
When the adults of the city government turned their heads and discovered this, they realized that they had no way to start. It was not that they could not get rid of this intricate area, but that the slums were already attached to the city of Glia at that time. If they did, It is bound to have an adverse effect on the city of Gloria, and the gains and losses are really disproportionate, so in the end they had to grit their teeth and give up this idea.
In turn, the slums will be incorporated into the Glia City management system for a looser management. As long as the people there do not do excessive things, then the empire will not intervene in them.
And now that this kind of thing has happened in Gloria City, the city's martial law is also expected, and it is probably the same. Bor and they will shrink their strength at this moment just in case.
While thinking about these causes and consequences, Allen wandered in the shadows and walked in the dark, but his attention had not been put down, maintaining the vigilance he deserved.
retracted his wandering thoughts, he gradually lowered the sound of his footsteps, calmed his breathing, and reduced the whole person's sense of existence to a thin point.
In the northern section of Gloria City, the night wind began to bleak. A few leaves were blown on the long street. There were row upon row of exotic buildings. The tall chimneys were puffing out a misty atmosphere, and some yellowish white walls were there. It was even more lonely under the pale moonlight, and the huge city wall in the distance was in sight. The city gate made of fine iron was like an unchanging mountain peak, calm and heavy.
The moonlight like water rippled on the bluestone long street, and the always refreshing breeze also began to become low. Alan stood quietly in the shadow, staring at the large townhouse in the distance.
After coming back in the afternoon, he didn't do nothing. Because the uncle is the editor-in-chief, they have been ordering several newspapers in their home, throwing news and gossip headlines, and he found the information he wanted in the morning paper, an official mouthpiece.
It says that because the weather is getting colder and the underground river is being diverted, some areas will be repaired tonight. The UU Reading www.uukānshu.com Municipal Department will relocate the residents of the area to be repaired, and the empire will provide them in the hotel. Prepared a room for dwelling.
Although the empire officials come to repair and inspect these infrastructures every year, this kind of big action has not been for several years. This ordinary news seems a bit too abnormal at this time.
In the eyes of ordinary people who don’t know the inside story, it may just be that the empire took advantage of this curfew to inspect and modify the basic welfare facilities, but to Allen, who already knew the inside story, this news was like a lice on the head of a monk. It was equally obvious, so I didn't hesitate to head towards the north of Gloria City.
But his speculation ends here. Without more information, he can only wait for the further development of things in this shadow, and cannot participate more, although he did not find anything in his observations. There are signs of ambush, but in his perception, there is a great crisis lurking in the area ahead, just like a ferocious beast in the dark choosing people to eat.
exhale, inhale, exhale, inhale...
Allen's breathing became long and slight, like withered autumn leaves crushed in the cold and bleak autumn wind. He is no worse than patience.
Maybe there will be some actions behind the official here, but the danger of observing here is also much less. Besides, Alan does not believe what the fugitive who spans a small half of the empire and is only one step away from the empire is. Good looks.
Even if he believes in the majesty the empire has been forged with iron and blood for so many years, Alan feels that he is more likely to be killed on the spot. However, he does not want to bet on the tiny possibility. He came here just to confirm the disappearance of the nightmare. He wouldn't make a move without reaching that compelling situation.
