The bright sunshine still sheds on this extremely northern city, bringing a little warmth in this cold weather.

Halfway through the day, the sun that was originally high above the sky began to sink gradually, preparing to alternate with the moon.

At this time, it was about five o'clock in the afternoon, and Alan, Leonard and others had already left the Bate mansion and embarked on their way back to the executive department.

The executive department and others have all withdrawn from the original Beit mansion and now the embassy of the Dwarf Empire, and returned the entire building to the envoy of the Dwarf Empire.

However, although most of the people have left the embassy, ​​there are still many people on duty around it.

Although in the previous conversation, the other party mentioned that there is no need to spend such a lot of trouble, but in order to ensure that there is nothing wrong, the executive department still maintains considerable vigilance.

Of course, in order to show their preparations for the other party, and to protect the other party's privacy, the executive commissioners who stayed to perform security work chose a place not far from the embassy for their foothold.

After all, although they didn't want to see such a thing as an attack on the messenger of the Dwarven Empire.

It can even be said that if they encounter such a situation, they will suffer a lot of criticism and accountability.

But they are only afraid of the consequences after such a thing happens, not worried about the strength of the other party.

You know, being able to participate in such an event itself shows their extraordinary.

Even if Mr. William and Prince Jade are not mentioned, the others are extraordinary, either a genius or a nobleman.

The former, their own talents allowed them to reach a height that ordinary people could not reach even if they worked hard for a lifetime at a slightly young age, possessing the strength to defend themselves.

And the latter, able to serve the Dawn Empire, must not be a dude, but the leader of the younger generation of the dwarf empire aristocracy, and many people even have genius identities.

Compared with those civilian geniuses, with the exception of a few who can rely on their outstanding talents to fight for a **** path, most people will choose to join a force or accept investment from others in exchange for their own rapid growth.

But the descendants of the dwarf nobles who were born nobles, coupled with the extraordinary talents, can perform even more unimaginable functions.

Therefore, they have almost no fear of most ordinary attacks.

Even if there are a few of them that are only for gilding, this is the truth. After all, the more noble, the more afraid of death. These people are generally self-aware. Because of their lack of strength, they will spend a lot of money to purchase various self-defense equipment to ensure their own. Safe.

To sum up, in fact, even if the executive department is not outside, they are unlikely to have an accident.

After all, to represent a huge empire across thousands of rivers to another country for the first practice, no matter what these people look like, but the other party must be an elite, an incredible existence.

Moreover, it can be seen from the mana warships controlled by the opponent that the opponent's military preparations are quite adequate.

When Allen saw the behemoth, he even gave birth to whether the other party was ready to leave the country violently if things didn't go well.

Logically speaking, the executive department does not need to intervene too much, which is not only unpleasant, but also easy for the other party to misunderstand them.

It's just that the reason is very complicated.

The ability of the other party is one thing, but whether they can protect each other is another.

In order not to lose the handle and let people take the opportunity to play, they must make a certain gesture, even if it is only symbolic.

...

Rumble!

Inside the car, the steam engine, which has been developed for decades, operates efficiently, transforming far constant heat energy into mechanical energy that drives the entire behemoth.

Thick water vapor escaped from the exhaust pipe at the rear of the car, but it solidified into fine ice crystals within a few breaths.

The temperature in the northern part of the empire has always been so harsh, even in the hot light and cold white it will freeze.

However, this is already considered good. You must know that, except for a handful of military vehicles, other cars can hardly run during the cold wave. Even letting the exhaust pipes spray fine ice crystals is a luxury.

Alan sat in the co-pilot, as when he came back, he hugged the precious long knife that Ms. Kelly gave him, and closed his eyes to rest.

The rugged steel beast drove on the ground, majestic and domineering.

The streets of Gloria City have always been extremely smooth, especially after the construction team completed the road repairs.

Even if there are a handful of potholes that have not been discovered, it will not hurt the passers-by to feel a little discomfort.

And the steam vehicle that Allen rides in doesn't even care about such difficulties.

The steel creation like a chariot sprints at a speed close to the limit of speeding in the city. It skips the pits and grinds over the fine debris, but it has been very stable and has not let the people in the car. Feel how many bumps.

"Ellen, what are you doing back?"

A familiar voice came from the back of the vehicle, and Leonard, who had been dead for a long time, said casually.

Hearing this, Alan, who closed his eyes and calmed down, couldn't help but fall into contemplation.

You know, since he returned from the Frozen Fortress, he actually slept for half a month, and after waking up, he experienced a short rest and ran missions throughout the city of Gloria.

After finally finishing the cost-effective task in Gloria City, when he was about to go to the other two main cities in the northern border of the empire, his plan was disrupted by the arrival of the dwarven empire mission.

Then, it was to check Zarya's qualifications, and then, it was to run endlessly in the city of Gloria, carrying out **** and violent suppression.

Thinking about it this way, the time I spent this time is quite fulfilling.

And now, after finally completing the stage goals, he has no ideas for a while, which is really a bit confusing.

However, this thought only lasted for a moment in his mind, and Allen thought carefully and replied.

"What else can you do? Go back and take time to rest. It's still far from the time to relax."

"The next few days will be especially critical."

Allen sighed, with inexplicable sadness in his tone.

Indeed, although it is reasonable to say that the opponent cannot take a huge risk to launch an attack within the city of Gloria, and it is even more impossible to make a self-investment in their home court.

But this is just what it looks like. It seems that dawn has come, but this may also be a sign of darkness.

After all, those hyenas are not something to give up easily.

It is really an unrealistic extravagant hope to imagine that the other party will stop before they have not achieved their goal, or before they are hit by a desperate blow.

Allen didn't say these words directly, but everyone in the car could understand what Allen meant.

Before long, when he returned, he had reduced a lot of convoys and reached the parking lot near the executive department safely.

After Allen joined the executive department, he rarely returned to his uncle's house.

Not because they have not moved back to the castle where they originally rented, but because before his strength reached a certain level, he was consciously reducing his contact with his uncle and the others.

Although according to Leonard, the northern part of the empire was his base camp, his father built a huge network of relationships here.

However, Alan will never underestimate his enemies.

It is his most cautious creed not to pin safety on the mercy of the enemy.

After all, occupying a high position in the empire, the old school, which can be called the strongest strength under the royal family, is far less embarrassed than it seems on the surface.

Therefore, in order to be safe, Allen now has a routine return home to report safety, and rarely does he even spend time with them when he goes back.

Most of the time, Allen rests in the dormitory in the basement of the executive department, or the single bed in the cubicle of Leonard's office.

Therefore, after the completion of today's task, Allen returned directly to the executive department.

After parking the car in the parking lot owned by the club on the surface of the executive department, Allen slightly counted the number of people who returned to the executive department with himself, and found that there was nothing unusual or abnormal, and Allen returned directly with Leonard and others. Arrived in the base.

They walked into the club gate very skillfully, swiped their card, and verified their body, but after a while, Allen and the others returned to the familiar base.

Walking on the road made of steel in the underground base, Alan looked at the surrounding scenes with a little nostalgia, and was in a good mood.

Although the time to go out is not long, the pressure on them is not small.

Today's task is simple, that is to go outside the city of Glia to welcome the arrival of the dwarven empire mission.

However, this task seems simple, but the danger is even the newest guy knows the danger.

In the beginning, Allen and Leonard had a battle for today's best guess, and even made some pessimistic guesses.

Therefore, both of them kept cheering up on their way back to prevent possible accidents.

But what they didn't expect, nothing happened.

Although I don't know why, it is a good thing that there are no casualties and accidents.

As for the rest of the matter, Binglai will block the water and cover it up. Since they have no way to prevent it, they can only regenerate and wait for the problem to appear before it is resolved.

At least, there has been no bad news so far, and Alan and Leonard will not find themselves depressed.

However, thinking of this, Allen couldn't help but wonder about the astronomical research far away in the imperial capital.

Such a department heavily supported by the empire seems to be of no use since he came into this world.

The Astronomical Research Association is a huge group of mages who specialize in astrology, astrology, and other prophetic spells. Although the name seems to be a civil organization, it is really an important department of the empire, responsible for the entire empire. Disaster prediction, and sometimes cameo role-solving detective.

But, thinking of this, Alan couldn't help but breathe in air.

At the beginning, the abyss came, and the Astronomical Research Association did not predict. He recognized it. After all, the opponent is the abyss, let alone a group of small ants with the highest silver rank. A very difficult thing, and there is also the possibility of being eroded by the abyss.

Later, no trace of the puppet master was found, and he also recognized it. After all, the puppet master was offering sacrifices to the evil gods. He had a natural personal suppression. Even with the blessing of the legendary magic tools of the empire, they could not observe the people protected by the gods. It's just a Cthulhu, even if it's just a ray of will.

But at this time, they still can't play a role, which is a bit unreasonable.

It's impossible. The movement made by the other party this time is the same level as the two mentioned before.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shudder, and there was a sudden chill all over my body.

However, such feelings come and go quickly, and Allen hardly finds anything strange.

After thinking about it carefully, even if the other party is really planning something big, they can only passively greet them if they have no news now.

Therefore, Allen just pressed his doubts to the bottom of his heart, and quickly followed the Leonards who were ahead of him because he was thinking, and continued to discuss today's affairs in full swing.

...

As time passed slowly, the originally warm golden sunlight had turned dark red, with a sense of age.

The setting sun has been concealed above the horizon, pouring out the few afterglows.

At the same time, a cold crescent moon slowly rose from the sky, taking over the setting sun and bringing light to the world again.

As the night got deeper, the world became quieter.

The quiet cold wind blows from the farther north, adding a bit of breath to this silent night.

The distant place outside the city of Griya, the area where the dwarven empire magic warships are parked~lightnovelpub.net~The silver moon hangs high, and the moonlight is spreading on the ground like a veil, and the warm moonlight is flowing like running water. With a kind of hazy dreamy beauty that is not like the human world.

The tall trees are connected together, dyeing the earth with another color.

The trees outside the city of Gloria are naturally extremely tall, but in this season, in today's climate, the old trees in the forest are not as dense as usual, on the contrary, with some sparse scattered.

What's more, it is like old dead wood, with a certain senescence.

These trees, which have been rooted in the far north for a long time, grew arbitrarily in the past, and their thick branches stretched arbitrarily, encircling the dragon, as sharp and vigorous as a sword.

However, in such a situation, it is even more terrifying and gloomy.

The ancient trees are like the demon that has been sleeping for a long time, grinding their teeth and sucking blood in the silent darkness, waiting to kill people like a numb.

The sparse leaves swaying on the branches did not dilute such a mysterious and terrifying atmosphere, on the contrary, they added a weirdness to this unquiet night.

Click!

The insignificant stepping sound that is almost unheard of by humans resounds suddenly, traveling in all directions along various media, but it is not noticeable.

However, what is shocking is that there is no abnormality in the place where this sound is coming from.

The breeze is still there, and the moonlight is cold, as if everything is business as usual.

Under the dark night, a group of men in black dressing themselves up, under the cover of concealed magic equipment, marched towards the magical battleship that looked like a mountain.

There was nothing strange in the covered face, only the eyes revealed from the mask could see their greed.

On this night, I wonder how many sins the eternal silver moon will witness.
