The locomotive was speeding through the wilderness, and a smoke dragon billowed up from the rear of the car. The oncoming wind blows the knight's silver hair all the way to the back. Ryan, wearing the goggles, has no expression on his face. He only keeps blasting the speed of the locomotive towards the end of the oil needle, which is already over three hundred. The terrible speed of kilometers!

The wilderness is dead.

This is true silence.

Under the battle between the Augustus family and the Hall of Valor, there is no gap in the wilderness that used to be the battlefield for any mutant beasts to survive. Either they have died in the flames of war, or they have gone elsewhere. The ruins of the city were razed to the ground, and there were large tracts of scorched earth.

The scorched earth, the black earth, has suffered more serious consequences than radioactive pollution after being invaded by the war. The explosion of a large amount of explosives, the ravages of various war machines, and the power of the capable people blasted down. The damage caused by these things is far more profound and more serious than simple radiation pollution. It is foreseeable that in the next few decades or even hundreds of years, nothing will grow here.

Even the most stubborn mutant plants cannot take root on this scorched soil. However, relying on the purification ability of the planet itself, I don't know how long it will take to recover. What's more, this planet surrounded by radiation clouds, its own purification ability is not good.

Rhein sometimes finds it ironic that humans need to invest a lot of resources and time to make progress in purifying the environment. It only takes the blink of an eye to destroy. He is not a pacifist, but at the same time he hates war.

Unfortunately, war is not in his control. But those who can control the war longed for it to happen.

As he drove through the wilderness, Ryan seemed to have seen something, and quickly glanced at a small hill in the distance.

But his current speed is so fast that he doesn't even have a one-second stay, and the hillside has gone infinitely far away. Klein still saw two figures, which seemed to be a pair of travelers. People wear hooded cloaks that can cover their faces. One of them has a long object arched out from behind the cloak, which should be something like a firearm. And on that shoulder, there was only a yellow, strange creature.

Travelers, people who hike on the mainland. The identities of these people are diverse, ranging from refugees who are forced to leave their homes, and mercenaries wandering around. They may be singular adventurers, or they may be wild thugs who rob homes and houses. But no matter what it was, Ryan was surprised to see the figure of the traveler in this war-torn wilderness.

Now the news of the battle between the Dark Council and the Hall of Valor is heard even by the alien races in the extreme west and the black land in the southwest, not to mention other areas where humans gather. Hearing this kind of news will still rush to the battlefield, either the ability or mercenaries who want to join the battle, or the adventurers who come to pick up the omissions.

The so-called picking up leakage means picking up cheaply. After the war, there will be a lot of supplies left, from chariots, guns and even corpses are the targets of adventurers. Of course, if you want to grab something between the two giants, you have to have enough matching strength as a backing, otherwise you are looking for death.

Looking at the two thin figures, it seems that they are neither.

Maybe just passing by, Ryan thought.

And under the wilderness hillside where he went, the figure walking in front stretched out his hands. The fingers of these hands were long and flexible, and it gently lifted the hood on its head, so a long hair as silver and pale as Rein was dancing in the wilderness air. The silver-haired owner said unexpectedly: "Hey, the person who just passed by was not the parliament knight who appeared in the Shadow City three years ago?"

The voice was crisp, it was the voice of a girl. But the companion behind her chose to be silent. The girl seemed to be used to it, and she touched a chubby creature on her shoulder, and the creature made a tender voice: "Lala--"

Before dusk arrived, Rhein returned to Phoenix without a hitch. Phoenix has now been taken over by the Augustus family, and the flag of the Phoenix is ​​no longer flying over the city, but the family crest of Augustus. When Rin returned to the city, soldiers had already taken the bullet locomotive for him, and Rin himself got into a car that had been waiting at the gate of the city.

The car drove to the city lord's mansion, which was the mansion of the former master of the city, General Morgan. Now the owner of Phoenix is ​​no longer owned by the gray-haired old man, but the Augustus family retains General Morgan's residence and other related properties. For General Morgan, this is already an extremely decent result.

Now that the first knight Xiuya and her guard are about to arrive in Phoenix, then the only person in this city that can receive her is the City Lord's Mansion.

Therefore, after receiving the news, Ryan had notified Phoenix to prepare for the reception, and the city lord's mansion was now busy.

"Hurry up, fresh lamb chops and vegetables will be delivered to the kitchen immediately!"

"Damn it, what are those cooks still rubbing with?"

"Where is the pastry chef? Come and help!"

"Who helps me get the strawberries, how can I make strawberry jam without it?"

When Rhein arrived at the city lord's mansion, he heard these messy sounds. People rushed around in the mansion, and no one even had time to look at Ryan, let alone say hello. General Morgan, who was only dressed in a suit and leather shoes, was waiting at the gate early, and smiled when he saw Lein: "My lord, you are back."

Ryan nodded and said apologetically, "I'm really sorry, General Morgan. According to the agreement, we won't disturb your life. It's just the one who is coming to Phoenix..."

General Morgan waved his hand and said, "It's okay. It's my honour to be able to receive the chief of the Scarlet Knight and the noble daughter of the Speaker. It's just that our small place is relatively simple, and I don't know if Miss Xiu Ya likes it. ."

Ryan smiled bitterly: "That's not going to help her, after all, we are the front line here, not her mansion in Yongye City."

Ryan was also busy for a while. He first took a shower, then the maid put on a white suit for him, then put on a bow tie, combed his hair, and Ryan in the mirror changed. The **** soldier from the front immediately turned into a handsome noble prince, and the eyes of several maids lit up.

It was already dusk when this was done, and General Morgan's voice also sounded outside the door: "My lord, Miss Xiuya is here."

At the gate to the east of Phoenix, Rin saw a convoy coming from a distance along the road towards Phoenix. Driving directly in front is an off-road vehicle, which has obviously been modified. In addition to the body is much rougher than ordinary off-road vehicles, the four wheels are also exaggerated, and the four exhaust pipes on both sides of the rear of the car continue to emit gray smoke dragons.

There are no guns in the car, but when you look from a distance, you can see a blue hair fluttering in the air.

That is Xiuya's hair, and the long blue hair is her sign. With her, the off-road vehicle certainly does not need any heavy weapons, because she herself is far superior to any heavy weapons.

Behind the off-road vehicle are hundreds of motorcycles. The knights on these motorcycles are Xiuya's guards, members of Glacier. But Rin remembered that when the eldest lady in the council pulled up the banner and headed to the black earth, there were thousands of people who voluntarily joined the glacier guard after the name of the curtain fell under her skirt. But now there are only more than a hundred people left. It seems that the conquest of the black land in the past two years is very cruel.

But because of this, all the more than a hundred people who survived have a deep and generous aura, and everyone has awe-inspiring eyes, and none of them is easy to provoke.

The team stopped when it came to the gate of the city, and jumped out of the off-road vehicle in an unassuming posture.

Xiuya Lan Lost, height m. Wearing the uniform of the scarlet knight, it seemed that for the sake of facilitating the battle, the original robe was changed to a short skirt. The short skirt was a white red waist, revealing a **** belly button. The lower body is dark red tight leather pants, emphasizing Xiu Ya's slender and straight legs. When her legs were brought together, there was no gap.

With long blue hair flying like a icy cloud, the two years of battle did not leave any trace on Xiuya's face. Her beauty and arrogance filled with pride remained the same, the person she looked up to. But for some reason, there will be a feeling of being overlooked before her eyes.

It was a supercilious look, but what was terrible was that this woman had the strength to despise sentient beings.

It hasn't changed at all. Ryan sighed and greeted him with a smile: "Welcome to you, Miss Xiuya."

"Remove the young lady and call me Major General, I don't need such a weak title!" Xiu Ya said with an overbearing aura.

Ryan smiled bitterly. He knew that Xiuya was not easy to get along with, but unexpectedly let himself touch a nail. For Rhein, this may be unique. Next, Xiuya said: "We are hungry all the way, are you ready to eat?"

"Yes, I have arranged a banquet for the major general at the mansion of the lord of the city," Rein replied.

"Banquet?" Xiuya let out a high-pitched laugh: "If I remember correctly, this is the front line, right? The Augustus family is indeed the largest and strongest in my parliament. Even on the front line, it can hold a reception. If this is the case, why has it been several months since the beginning of the war, instead of advancing to the west of the enemy camp, you were beaten back. Are you wasting resources on these unknown banquets? "

The first two sentences can be called genteel, but in the latter few sentences, Xiuya is already full of expressions and expressions. The fierce aura of an iron-blooded soldier was revealed from her body, constantly reminding Lein that the woman in front of him was no longer the first knight, but a major general!

Ryan smiled bitterly in his heart. When he hadn't set out two years ago, the eldest lady had a lot of banquets. It is common to have a big banquet in January and a small banquet every three or four days. Her profligacy is as outstanding as her looks. But today, two years later, the profligate eldest lady is now accusing herself of wasting. Ryan really has the urge to kill her.

Before he had time to say anything, Xiuya's talk changed again: "Forget it, it depends on your enthusiasm. Forgiving, I will forgive you this time. Just prepare one person's food for me, and the rest. Something greets my soldiers. Remember, you are not allowed to lower the specifications privately. Whatever I eat, they must eat!"

After that, Xiuya walked straight into the city gate.

Ryan hurriedly followed, leaving General Morgan dumbfounded. The white-haired old general finally saw what moodiness is, and when he recovered, he quickly greeted her glacier guards to enter the city. It's just that these people are expressionless, and they exude a special smell.

That is the smell of crawling out of the dead.

In the city lord's mansion, the banquet hastily skipped all the links, and Xiuya had only one order, and immediately put the food on the stage. Irrelevant personnel all exited, leaving only Rin and the two waiters.

So facing a table of food, Xiuya began to eat. In her hands, the knife and fork are flying. She moved quickly, and the delicious lamb chops quickly turned into regular cubes under her knife and fork, and then disappeared into her cute mouth. At the same time, she is very elegant and eats quickly, but she doesn't feel rushed at all.

With this combination of efficiency and elegance, the dishes in front of Xiuya kept on. In just ten minutes, she has eliminated 20 catties of lamb chops, a lot of desserts and cakes, plus several catties of fruit. Xiuya finally stopped and wiped her lips gracefully with a napkin to indicate that she was full.

During the whole process, Lein didn't even finish eating a small piece of lamb chops, and only drank a small sip of wine.

Putting the napkin on the table, Xiuya exhaled, "It's been a long time since I had eaten so much. In the ghost place of the black earth, sometimes I have to eat raw meat when I am in a hurry. Hey, it's really a devilish day. ."

Lein could hear that Xiuya hadn't been so happy these two years, so he said, "If you still need it, Major General, I can let the kitchen cook some more dishes you like."

"No need." Xiuya shook her head and said, "Food is precious, and there is no need to waste it on me alone." She smiled again: "I haven't seen you for two years. Little Layin, you have grown a lot taller and more handsome. ."

Lein reminded: "In terms of age, I think I am older than you, Major General."

Xiuya laughed and said: "Little Layin, there is a saying in the East that the expert is first. If you beat me, you can call me Xiaoxiuya, I won't mind at all."

After carefully considering this proposal, Rhein thought it over. So he said: "Then Major General Xiuya, forgive me to ask, are you here this time for?"

"Relax."

Xiuya said casually, but didn't want this answer to almost make Ryan spit out old blood. He followed Xiuya with a chuckle and said, "I lied to you."

She stood up and said sternly: "Listen well, this time I mainly brought the father's message. In view of the significance and importance of this battle, my father decided to hand over the Blood Cavalry and the Servant Corps to your eldest brother. Special command. Of course, I didn't come in vain. My guard, Glacier, will go to the battlefield tomorrow, temporarily return to the blood cavalry organization, and hand it over to your elder brother for unified command."

"What about you?" Ryan asked cautiously.

Xiuya walked to Rin’s dining table, sat down on the table and raised her legs, and said to Rin with an extremely charming expression: "Don’t worry, I won’t grab your eldest brother’s command. Honestly, I I'm not interested in this war at all. It's so boring, and so is my father. It's better to fight me with this kind of resources."

In the face of Xiuya's impeccable beauty, Ryan saw it as a beastly poison, and quickly stood up and withdrew a little: "The Speaker has his own considerations. The major general is better not to guess."

"Let’s come, little Ryan, I don’t know about you yet. You kid’s arrogance is not under me. Don’t pretend to be loyal to my father. But then again, I’m bored when I come back. Looking through the mission file of the blood rider, I found an interesting thing in it." Xiuya smiled at Mimi's words.

Ryan's back was cold, and generally speaking, it would not be a good thing to make Xiuya interesting.

"I don't know what Major General Xiuya is referring to?" Rin asked.

"When there are only two of us, you can just call my name."

Ryan nodded, he had become accustomed to the erratic nature of Xiuya.

Xiuya smiled and looked at him and said, "It's really surprising that there is a failed record in the mission file of Little Layin. That mission record is two years ago. You took the execution of the first one, Little Layin. The mission of the famous wilderness mercenary. This is a piece of cake for you, but you failed. The reason for the failure was Valkyrie’s intervention. At that time, we and the Hall of Valor hadn’t gotten rid of our skins, basically The principle of the peace treaty they took the man away under the pretext of extradition. Naturally it would not be a small character who could let the goddess of war intervene personally, so I continued to track down the man named Zero. As a result, I was fascinated by him!"

Ryan couldn't help but smiled bitterly: "This is not so good."

Xiuya ignored him and said, "This is really an excellent man. He has made his mark in Asgartri in just two or three years. He also participated in Asgart’s launch of Asgartri’s alien circle last year. The expedition ~lightnovelpub.net~ is shocking that after he came back, he changed and became the leader of the alien race. Also, I heard that he and Asgart have also reached a number of cooperation, one of them It is to cooperate in the development of a city called the City of Dawn near the Shadow Canyon. Little Ryan, do you think this man is very capable."

"You have said so much, I don't seem to have any room for denial." Ryan sighed.

"So, how can I not be fascinated by such a capable man. You have to understand, don't say that he is more capable than me now, even if there are not many men who can stand by my side, or even no more." Xiuya complained.

Ryan couldn't help but straighten his chest.

Xiuya laughed again, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Little Ryan is not bad, and your eldest brother Hart is quite good. It's just that you have today's status, and a lot of it comes from the support of your family. But that man doesn't. The same, he was born in the wilderness, so it can be said that he has nothing. Therefore, he and I are of the same kind!"

When he said this word, there was a spark named danger in Xiuya's eyes. Ryan's heart sank, and his most worried thing finally happened.
