This Game Is Too Realistic

Chapter 406 The rewards for warriors are not just trophies, but also applause and flowers

The bridge of the Ironheart.

There were documents that hadn't been burned in time scattered beside the tilted chair, and the screen of the console connected to the radar was smashed, but the chassis was still intact, and it wasn't too difficult to repair.

It can be seen that those people fled in a panic and in a hurry, and they didn't even have time to completely destroy the things here.

Thanks to this.

Only then did the Iron Heart almost completely fall into the hands of the Alliance.

A team of thousands of people appeared in the north of Liming City, suspected to be a mercenary organization...but they have been eliminated by Xiao Qi!

Master, you can rest assured!

Standing by the French windows at the front end of the bridge, Chu Guang quietly listened to Xiao Qi's report on the situation in the northern border of the alliance, with a relieved smile on his lips.

Good job.

After the battle, the communication between Ruigu City and Shuguang City had been restored, and the signal in the air was especially good, and he was finally able to have a direct conversation with Xiao Qi like this for the first time in a long time, without having to worry about being disconnected all the time.

A long time ago, probably when the Northern Expedition just ended, Chu Guang was on guard against threats from the north.

Whether it is the investigation of the source of the Bonechewer's arms or the contact with the Firestone group messenger, it shows that the Legion has its own intelligence network in the Buguera Free State and has unclear interests with the local area.

According to the confession of the surrendering officer under Dillon's command, Kondra, the commander of the 140,000th team, is in the Bugra Free State.

Chu Guang could even assert that the Bone Chewing Tribe that swept through the River Valley Province was one of the handiwork of the intelligence network. The purpose is probably to foster a vassal similar to the Falcon Kingdom in the River Valley Province.

Obviously, the Legion did not give up because of the failure of one expedition, including their military operations in Luoxia Province, which meant paving the way for the next expedition.

The large army of the Alliance was pinned down on the Western Front by the Iron Heart, and he would be surprised if the intelligence network operated by the Legion in the Buguera Free State did nothing.

And after listening to Xiao Qi's report, the stone hanging in Chu Guang's heart finally fell to the ground.

The torrential rain outside the floor-to-ceiling windows has stopped.

Looking at the crumbling twilight and the land about to fall into the night, Chu Guang's thoughts could not help flying a hundred kilometers away with the dusk, looking at the land illuminated by the rays of the sun.

Although he could only see a vague outline, he could feel the storm brewing there.

But no matter what, he had finished fighting the battle at the door of his house, and the Iron Heart was permanently left in the River Valley Province. In a short time, the legion could no longer covet the land under his feet.

With the help of Yunsong and his 26th commando, the coalition forces formed by the Four Kingdoms should be able to hold off for a while.

And before the army marched to Luoxia Province, he could take a breather and stop for a moment to appreciate the rainbow after the rain...

At this time, the sound of footsteps outside the door interrupted Chu Guang's thoughts.

Lu Bei, who was wearing the five-style light cavalry exoskeleton, stood at the door, his right fist pressed against the breastplate covered with bullet holes and cracks, and said in a respectful tone.

My lord, I brought the person you want!

When reporting, the boy's eyes were not only respectful, but also obviously adored.

As Chu Guang's personal guard, the Guards Corps also participated in the encirclement and suppression of the 1,000th Air Marine Corps in the previous battle.

The figure riding on the back of Death Claw and charging high with the war hammer has been deeply engraved in his mind.

Although standing on the front line does not affect the greatness of that adult, at that moment, the stalwart figure bathed in the holy light seemed to be sublimated.

He was sure he wasn't the only one feeling that way.

Looking away from the floor-to-ceiling windows, Chu Guang turned around and looked towards the door.

I saw a pale man with a protruding nose standing beside Lu Bei.

Physically, he was far from the tall Marine Corps officers, more like a civilian or technical person.

And it is true.

According to the information provided by the soldiers and the confession of the captives, the name of this person is Feynold, and he is the logistics chief of the Iron Heart, with a high military rank of commander.

Although he doesn't have soldiers, the stars on his shoulders are two more than Vanus.

When the fight broke out earlier, he happened to be at the base of the Air Marine Corps. Later, the camp was attacked by the Jungle Corps and was forced to retreat to the Fallen Leaf Camp one kilometer away.

Missed General McLenne's escape pod, missed Colway's last train, and finally collided with the armored formation of the Skeleton Corps.

Surrendering alive was not easy in a sense.

Seeing Chu Guang looking at him, Fei Nuode swallowed hard, tried to force a forced smile from his face, and opened the mouth to speak.

I... can pay the ransom.

Hearing this, Chu Guang smiled lightly.

Five million dinars.

Hearing this astronomical figure, Feynold's already pale blue face turned even paler, and he tried to bargain with a trembling voice.

I, I'm just a commander...Will five million be too much?

Chu Guang said casually.

Then 6 million dinars.

Hearing the number six million, Fei Nuode immediately shut up and did not speak.

He had already guessed that the person in front of him had no intention of letting him go at all, and the ransom figure was just a random report.

Six million dinars...

This money is enough to arm three thousand-man teams!

Although the post of chief logistics officer did bring him some convenience in his position, even if he borrowed ten thousand courage, he would not dare to make such a profit.

Feynold swallowed, and a trace of fear gradually appeared in his eyes.

Is this guy planning to sacrifice himself to the flag because he didn't catch any other big fish?

Thinking wildly in his heart, Feynold felt his calf go weak for a while.

Not afraid of death.

It's just that he hasn't made the mental preparation to be loyal to the marshal...

Chu Guang glanced at this guy and asked with interest.

You have become a logistics officer, so you can't get this little money?

Fernand said bitterly.

My lord, do you know the concept of five million dinars?

I don't know, I'm not interested, and your ransom is 6 million. If you can't pay, just work hard and strive for leniency, looking at the face full of despair, a glimmer of hope was rekindled, Chu Guang smiled lightly, and then asked, Can you fly an airship?

Finod nodded nervously.

It will be a little bit... I probably know how to make it move.

It's enough, Chu Guang nodded, and continued, I'll watch here, you drive, and the target is Qingquan City. If it deviates, I don't need to talk about the consequences.

Hearing these words, Feynold's face instantly turned into a bitter gourd, and he said in a trembling voice.

Big, my lord...

What's wrong?

The wing on the left side of the airship has been dismantled by you... Now only the tail power is left, said Fiord with a bitter face, Don't talk about driving to Qingquan City, now put the anchor chain away, there will be The risk of drifting away...

Yes.

The wing appears to be broken.

Chu Guang admitted that he was indeed a little over excited. After all, it was hard not to be excited after capturing such a big guy.

It might take a few days just to count the loot.

Chu Guang believed that he was not the only one who defeated the first world-class boss in Wasteland OL. The players must be very excited right now.

When the loot is counted and the battle settlement list is released, he will share the joy of victory with his cute little players.

Coughing lightly, Chu Guang looked at Fei NuoDe who looked embarrassed and said.

Well, of course I know it can't be opened. I just wanted to see if you have used your brain... I am very satisfied with your performance. The ransom can be reduced by 100,000 dinars, and now it is 5.9 million.

Feynold smiled wryly and did not speak.

Chu Guang straightened his face and continued.

Show me around here.

Feynold breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head and said respectfully.

yes.

...

After the Jungle Corps and the Burning Corps took control of the airship, they coerced the rest of the crew to lower the airship.

Now the Iron Heart is only a hundred meters above the ground.

Except for the players who had missions, most of the players gathered under the Heart of Steel and stood beside the anchor chain to take pictures.

After all, it is the first world-class boss in Wasteland OL.

Moreover, it was the first battle with a scale of 10,000 people on the server.

Don't forget about it!

Especially looking at the Alliance flag hanging on the Iron Heart, maybe this airship may become the Alliance's new resurrection point.

Take a photo now, so that you can brag to the newbies in the future—Look, I was the one who took down your Xinshou Village!

While the players were busy preparing bragging materials after going offline for a while, Chu Guang was leading the guards to take over all areas of the airship from the Jungle Corps.

There were probably more than 500 crew members captured.

Most of these crew members are non-combatants, mainly technical personnel such as correcting firepower, operating radar, charting routes, and sailing and repairing ships.

In order to figure out how the airship flies and how the logistics system works, the help of these people is indispensable.

For the captives who were willing to cooperate, Chu Guang would not treat them harshly, and handed them all over to the logistics department, and arranged for people to learn how to drive the airship from these people.

If you behave well, you can get a reduced sentence.

To be honest, with the current size of the alliance, it is still difficult to completely digest such a behemoth as the Heart of Steel.

Although the Heart of Iron is an air unit, it operates more like a navy than an air force.

What is frustrating is that there are only two lakes in the alliance, and there is no such thing as a navy.

A series of personnel, including the captain, can only be temporarily promoted from the reserve officers under the army and air force system.

Led by Feynold, Chu Guang came to the ammunition depot of the Iron Heart.

A steel arch with a thickness of 20 millimeters runs across the end of the corridor, requiring both a password and a key to enter.

The password is 4731.

After entering the password, Feynold took out the key and opened the door, then returned the key in his hand to Chu Guang respectfully.

Chu Guang took the key and put it away, glanced at the door, and was soon surprised by the astonishing scene.

Cannonballs thicker than legs were stuffed into ammunition racks several meters high. Folded mechanical arms stood next to the ammunition racks, and their bases were fixed on T-shaped rails.

Chu Guang glanced at the warehouse full of ammunition, and suddenly asked on a whim.

Are all airship ammunition depots in the same location?

Finod replied respectfully.

Of course it's different, my lord. Every nuclear-powered airship of the legion is individually designed for the 'shield core', and the preservation of each 'shield core' is different...and this is the top secret of the legion one.

Including me, I didn't know the specific location of the various compartments of the Heart of Steel until after I took up my post. And many junior officers may not know the exact location of the ammunition compartment and power compartment until they leave the airship after their service period expires.

The so-called shield core probably refers to the wreckage of the frigate from the Renlian era.

Chu Guang nodded, expressing his understanding, and stopped asking this fruitless question, and instead cared about the remaining stock of ammunition.

With the help of the former logistics officer of the Iron Heart, Chu Guang made a rough inventory.

The harvest is also quite gratifying.

There are a total of fifty rounds of 400mm rocket-extended range bombs in the ammunition depot. The weight of each round is close to 1.5 tons. There are two types of warheads: cloud bombs and conventional bombs.

These sub-nuclear weapons that General McCllen hadn't had time to use have now all become the alliance's spoils of war.

Not only ammunition for the main gun, but also nearly ten thousand 100mm shells and millions of rounds of bullets of various types and calibers are stored in different compartments.

During the battle, these ammunition will be transported to various combat positions through the mechanical arm and fixed track, and according to the different types of ammunition, some of them will be loaded manually and some will be automatically loaded by machinery.

In addition, Chu Guang also found 500 500-kilogram medium-sized aerial bombs and 70 1,000-kilogram large-scale aerial bombs in the ammunition depot!

The power of this thing may be greater than that of the 400mm main gun!

After all, a large part of the weight of the 400mm rocket range-extending bomb is allocated to the propellant, and most of the weight of the 900 kg aerial bomb is in the warhead!

Generally, the equivalent of cloud bombs is more than 8 tons. If you compare them horizontally, the equivalent of this thing might be 20 tons.

According to the introduction of the logistics chief Finod, these aerial bombs are mainly used to deal with solid fixed fortifications and underground bunkers.

Looking at the full row of ammunition racks, Chu Guang couldn't help but feel a little bit of fear in his heart.

Thanks to the airship being towed.

If it flies to the face with the shield on, I am afraid that apart from the people in the shelter, few people on the surface will survive...

The trophies seized are not only the ammunition on the airship, but also the military supplies stored in the warehouse, including 500 tons of canned beef, nearly 1,700 tons of compressed biscuits, pickled vegetables and other materials, enough for an army of 10,000 people for a whole year. consume.

Even in a small cold storage, Chu Guang also found milk ice cream and ice cream kept in the freezer.

Looking at the desserts in the freezer, Chu Guang had a look of surprise in his eyes and made a joke.

You guys are having a good day.

Finod smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to answer.

Chu Guang looked at Lu Bei who was on the side, and said with a smile.

After a while, you call a few brothers over, move the popsicles and ice cream here, and share them with the soldiers at dinner time.

It says Centurion's Special Offer on it. I think it should taste good. Let everyone taste it and see what it tastes like.

After all, he is a child, and he can't escape his greed.

Upon hearing the food, Lu Bei couldn't help swallowing.

However, he soon realized his gaffe, and quickly stood up straight and gave a military salute.

Yes! My lord!

Looking at the excited Lu Bei, Chu Guang smiled and said nothing.

Ice cream is not a particularly rare item in Dawn City, but this is the front line, and it is not easy to eat a bite of ice cream.

Now is the hottest time of summer, and just experienced a big battle, whether it is the players or the aboriginals, their physical strength is close to the limit at the moment.

At this time, I can have a piece of ice cream to relieve the heat, and the taste is not to mention how beautiful it is.

Although there are not as many ice creams here as there are cans of beef, they are still filled to the brim with several freezers, so it's no problem to share one for each person.

Hearing Chu Guang's words divided, all the guards of the Guards Corps were happy, and only Fei Nuod had a regretful expression.

No one knows better than him, the chief logistics officer, how expensive these ice creams that are white and the same as suet jade are.

Not to mention anything else, the milk used to make these ice creams is not ordinary cheap goods, but it is produced in the alpine pastures of the Legion on the banks of the Solat River. Each barrel is worth tens of thousands of dinars. Ordinary civilians are not qualified at all. There is no channel to buy either.

Although it was written on the freezer that it was specially supplied by centurions, because it was too far away from the core territory of the legion, it was only supplied to officers above the centurion a long time ago.

It's a waste of money to distribute it to the servants!

But Finod didn't say anything.

After all, how to dispose of the booty is the right of the man in front of him, and he is just a captive...

...

In addition to ammunition and military supplies, the airship also carried some undeployed engineering vehicles and production equipment.

These Chu Guang plans to hand over to the logistics department for arrangement.

In addition to these unmovable cargo, the lower cabin of the airship also lived with legion slaves.

Contrary to Chu Guang's imagination, although the living conditions of these slaves were not very good, they were unexpectedly not too bad.

There are more than one hundred three-layer beds stuffed in the Datong bunk, which is close to two to three hundred square meters. The beds are so close together that they can barely accommodate two feet.

One side of the Datong shop is connected to the collective bathroom. There is no partition inside, and rows of showers are hung in the empty room.

There are bars of soap in the corner of the room.

Compared with the physically uncomfortable dungeon of the predators, the environment here is relatively civilized, barely reaching the level of a prison.

What happened here, however, was anything but civilized.

Looking at Chu Guang and Fei Nuode who walked into the room, the faces of the slaves in the room were full of bewilderment and panic.

Although this place has not turned into a battlefield, and they have long been accustomed to the deafening artillery fire and gunfire outside, they still vaguely feel something unusual from the expression on Finod's face and the costumes of the people beside him.

Chu Guang noticed that when they made eye contact with him, although there was fear in their eyes, they did not look away shyly.

Even though most of them were only wearing a single piece of clothing that was too thin to cover their bodies.

Standing beside Chu Guang, Fei Nuode coughed lightly, and said in a flattering voice.

My lord, most of these slaves are of low birth, and some are even wastelanders who were taken from the wasteland by the rough people. I believe you will not be interested...

In his point of view, compared to the priceless ice cream in the freezer, these are the trophies that should be rewarded to the servants.

Chu Guang gave him a slightly surprised look.

You even classify slaves?

Finod: Well, it's not about rank, it's just that officers above a centurion usually have a separate room, and officers above a thousand commander even have an extra cabin, where they not only store spoils of war, but are usually treated as The servants' quarters...

including you?

Seeing Chu Guang's half-smile expression, Feynold's face was slightly embarrassed, and he said boldly.

Of course... I can't deny it, but compared to my taste, I believe you will be interested in General McLennan's collection.

Chu Guang slightly raised his eyebrows.

Take me there.

Finod immediately said respectfully.

Yes, my lord.

General McLenne's cabin was at the very end of the airship, not far from the entrance of the escape cabin, and several soldiers from the Guards Corps were cleaning up the blood and corpses on the ground.

A fierce exchange of fire broke out here before, and the walls of the corridor were covered with dense bullet marks, which showed the tragedy.

Seeing Chu Guang and his party approaching, the two standing at the door immediately gave a military salute.

Master Manager!

Chu Guang nodded to them, signaling them to continue, and then let the pale-faced Feynold continue to lead the way as if nothing had happened.

A group of people arrived and soon arrived at General McClenn's room.

The space here is quite spacious, completely different from the closed crew quarters.

What's interesting is that Chu Guang actually saw Yong's head here.

The hideous head, about the size of a two-headed bull, was probably coated with formalin or something, and had been taxidermied.

It's just that General McLennan probably has no chance to hang this thing on the bow of the Heart of Steel.

In addition to Yong's head, there are also some beautiful stones, gold and silver utensils inlaid with diamonds, and some high-tech items, but I don't know what they are used for.

According to Feynold's introduction, every time General McLennan conquered a settlement of survivors, he would pick a few of the most valuable trophies from that time and store them in his treasury.

Some of them were made by the local aborigines themselves, and some were picked up from pre-war relics.

Chu Guang was not interested in these treasures, nor did he understand them very well, but the nobles in the inner city of Jushi City would probably be interested in these things.

He planned to ask Yin Fang to pick out some valuable items after transporting them back, and find a few familiar merchants to help sell the rest.

General McLane's private collection.

If you get it at the auction in Boulder City, you should be able to exchange a lot of chips.

There is a bedroom next to the room where the collection is stored. After Chu Guang opened the door and entered, he found a woman standing in the room.

She was in her early twenties, and she was wearing a luxurious long dress. Both her appearance and the temperament between her brows were obviously different from those slaves that Chu Guang saw in the lower cabin before.

but……

The panic and bewilderment written in the eyes are exactly the same.

Standing beside Chu Guang, Fei Nuode respectfully introduced.

This person's identity is not ordinary. She is one of the princesses of the Falcon Kingdom. Her name is Teresa, and she is the daughter of a certain powerful minister.

Chu Guang looked at him in surprise.

You snatched all the princesses?

Feynold explained in a low voice: This should not be regarded as a robbery. The king of the Falcon Kingdom offered it to General McLenne on his own initiative.

Teresa's face was pale, she bit her lips lightly and said nothing, her eyes moved back and forth between Chu Guang and Fei Nuode's faces, trying to figure out the situation in front of her.

Chu Guang stared at her for a while, thinking about how to deal with it.

At this moment, his heart suddenly moved, and he spoke.

Hello, Ms. Teresa.

Seeing the person in the blue power armor talking to her, Teresa said nervously.

You, hello... May I ask who you are?

Chu Guang continued.

The manager of the alliance.

Union... Alliance?

Teresa's face was subconsciously blank.

But she soon realized that her ignorance might be an offense, and she bowed her head in fear.

Sorry, I... I didn't mean to offend, but I have never been to such a far place, and I don't know anything about the situation here...

Don't be nervous, our minds are not that small, Chu Guang smiled lightly, and continued, And you are also a victim of the war, we will not make things difficult for you.

Teresa looked at him blankly, and then at Finod.

Fei Nuode didn't know what Chu Guang was going to do, but he was a smart person, so he closed his mouth consciously, silently pretending that he didn't exist.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Chu Guang guessed that she might still be confused about the current situation, so he spoke.

You may not have figured out the situation. Simply put, we defeated the Legion, and now this airship has been occupied by the Alliance.

Confirming from the expression on Finord's face that this was not a joke, Teresa looked nervously at the man in front of her and asked in a trembling voice.

Then, what about me...

you're free.

Before she could be happy, Chu Guang continued.

However, your status is special. We may be about to go to war with your country, so we can't release you directly. After all, you don't want to travel thousands of kilometers home alone, and then be captured by us as an enemy, right?

Teresa pursed her lips lightly, many thoughts flashed in her eyes for a moment, she finally nodded her head slowly, and said obediently.

What do you... need me to do?

That touch of indistinct whiteness shakes the temptation of bewitching people's hearts.

But she was obviously wrong.

joke.

Every day and a group of handsome men and beauties pouring water on the forum, why hasn't Chu Guang seen such a big storm?

He didn't care about her small thoughts at all, Chu Guang said bluntly.

Do you have any children?

Teresa blushed slightly and shook her head slightly.

No……

Chu Guang's expression was slightly disappointed.

Seeing that the princess is so young, he originally expected this guy to have a one or two-year-old son, but now it seems that he is too young.

After thinking for a moment, Chu Guang continued.

Are you literate?

Teresa nodded immediately.

I can read and write...including poetry and music.

As long as you can read and write.

Chu Guang nodded and continued.

The legion's military operations in Ruigu City have caused a large number of local survivors to be displaced. The Alliance's refugee home needs manpower, and I will arrange for you to work there.

Teresa's face was full of bewilderment, and she was stunned for a while before asking in a low voice.

Excuse me, specifically... what do I need to do?

Someone will teach you, what you have to do is help people here rebuild their homes and learn how to rebuild.

Having said that, Chu Guang smiled lightly.

You will use this knowledge.

...

The administrative divisions in the Renlian era were ridiculously large. The area of ​​the River Valley Province alone was already large enough, and the area of ​​the Luoxia Province was several times that of the River Valley Province.

Falcon Kingdom and the core territory of the alliance are separated by thousands of kilometers, even if there is one person standing every kilometer, a team of thousands of people has to be filled in.

It is not realistic to directly occupy the Falcon Kingdom.

An alliance with a total population of less than 100,000 has no spare power to control an enclave 1,000 kilometers away, which is a burden for both parties.

Not to mention, the cultural concepts of the two sides are completely different.

The best way is to support a puppet, ensure a smooth transition of power, and then gradually increase the economic and cultural influence of the alliance in the local area, and incorporate it into the alliance at the right time...if it is necessary to do so.

It's a bit of a pity that I didn't get orthodoxy.

but……

It doesn't matter anymore.

Anyway, it was a bad idea that came up on the spur of the moment, and Chu Guang didn't expect it to come in handy in the end.

He prefers that after the victory, the joint enterprise will purge the royal family of the Falcon Kingdom, disarm it, and then throw it to the Lion Kingdom for trusteeship.

Indirect vassalization is also an option.

It's just that this method also has its hidden dangers and uncertainties...

...

North of Dawn City.

With the full return of the Goblin Corps flying formation, the news of victory was also brought back here from the front line.

Outside the barbed wire fence of the airport, residents of Aurora City stood full.

The flowers strenuously scattered in the air floated from the outside of the airport to the runway with the applause and cheers of the people.

Although it was already night, people's enthusiasm did not diminish in the slightest.

Amidst the cheers of the residents of Dawn City, the players of the Goblin Corps landed on the runway of the airport one after another.

The triumph of the peloton will be days away.

The joy of victory can only be tasted by them in advance.

The plane slowly drove into the brightly lit hangar, Feng Qing got off the plane, looked at the two lines of poems engraved under the hatch, and sighed slightly regretfully.

Pity……

She was ready to be heroic, and even wrote the poem.

Unexpectedly, he came back alive.

At this time, a head curiously poked over from the side, looked at the two lines of poem on the edge of the hatch cover, and began to read to himself.

Akino Shura field, a galloping galloping Kamikaze, chasing arrows like flying locusts... Niu, did you write it?

Her ID is Guigui, and she is also an agility player. She is almost in the same batch as Feng Qing and Luo Yu. She has participated in the air raid on Qingshi Town and the Battle of Songlinyu before.

Her piloting skills are not very outstanding, just to the extent that she can drive the plane back.

However, being able to drive the plane back with broken mosquitoes is quite a feat in a sense.

Hearing that voice, Feng Qing's face turned red like a pig's liver, he rushed forward, pulled the player away, and said incoherently.

No, I didn't write it... You, you, you, don't read it!

Meanwhile, the sky beyond the hangar.

Mosquitoes who like to show off are reluctant to land for a long time. They put on an air show in the sky, but they overestimated the quality of their own products and almost broke the wings, so they landed obediently.

Residents of Aurora City who were waiting by the airport presented flowers to these victorious warriors.

Throughout the night today, until the sun rises tomorrow, the restaurants and taverns in the entire Dawn City will give free orders to these warriors who have returned safely.

But at this moment, in the lobby of the Road Town Hotel, the sound of drinking wine was rising and falling, and people were holding their glasses high to celebrate the hard-won victory.

Not all of them are residents of Aurora City, there are also merchants who came here from Boulder City, Red River Alliance, Garbage City or more distant places.

They have been here for several days because of the war.

Now it's finally over.

Long live the Alliance!

Cheers to victory!

I wish the manager a long and boundless life!

At this time, someone shouted with a smile.

Hahaha, our manager is still young, if you wish him a long life, why not wish him many children!

Cheerful laughter echoed in the lobby of the hotel.

Old Hook, who was sitting behind the bar, also laughed.

At this time, the guy standing by said with emotion.

The war is coming to an end... In a few days, we may not be so lively here.

Due to the war in the west, a large number of caravans going west from the eastern provinces have been forced to stay here in Dawn City.

Despite the fierce battle on the front line and the consumption of resources by the war, the major hotels in Dawn City are booming in business.

Perhaps it is to use alcohol to relieve worries, and beer is particularly popular.

But now that the war is over, those caravans probably have to pack up and continue on their way.

how come?

Old Hook smiled lightly, squinted his eyes and looked at the bustling hotel lobby, and said casually in an ordinary tone.

The triumphant ceremonies and celebrations are just a few days away. Many people are waiting to witness the honor of that lord. They must stay for a few more days.

Anyway, it's good to win.

After the celebration is over, the hotel's business may indeed not be as hot as it is now, but that is only temporary.

Waiting for those traveling caravans and merchants to bring the heroic deeds and legends about courage here to a more distant world...

In the future, this place will only be more lively than it is now.

...

At the same time, Boulder City, more than ten kilometers away.

Unlike the residents of Dawn City, the people here are still living in yesterday's news, and they don't know the situation on the front line.

The newspaper Survivor Daily was the first to receive good news from the front line.

Thanks to the financial support of the alliance behind him, Hal not only got the first-hand battle report, but even got the casualty list.

...Casualty list?! Show me!

Looking at the whining fax machine, Dolly, who heard the list of casualties, immediately leaned over, her face full of anxiety.

He looks like he's burning the Legion!

Hal was standing next to the fax machine, one step ahead of her, and first took the warm first-hand information in his hand.

Don't worry... I'll help you find it, isn't it the Burning Legion? It seems that there is news about this legion... Hiss...

Hal stared at the paper for a while, and suddenly couldn't hold back his breath.

Seeing the slight expression on his face, Dolly became even more anxious, and hurriedly asked.

What's wrong?

Hal's expression was slightly awkward, and he hid the fax behind his back.

Uh, you'd better not look at—

Before he finished speaking, he was suddenly punched in the stomach.

The collision between the metal and the flesh made Hal gasp in pain, and squatted on the ground with his teeth bared and his stomach covered.

You guy... are you a barbarian?!

How dare you beat the boss!

Although for the sake of that friend, it is impossible for him to drive her away...

Dolly ignored that guy at all, grabbed the fax and quickly found the line of the Burning Corps.

It was also at the moment when she saw the lines of text that her right eye shrank slightly, and the pretty face under the short green hair with the ears also lost its color at the same time.

Only a piece of paleness remained.

[A total of 500 members of the Burning Corps participated in the airborne landing operation against the Iron Heart, and a total of 751 people were wiped out. 】

[This battle ended in a tragic victory. 】

[Only one survived. 】
