Chapter 1228: The Fuel of the Light (12)
"It's not very rosy, which I saw from the captain, Miss Monenina. The man stood in the aisle in the middle of the carriage, holding the seats on both sides with his hands and said, "You are the last team to be summoned by the head of the organization's regional liaison, as early as a week or two ago, that is, shortly after the start of this delivery mission, on the route passed, one of the top 'green trees' began to mobilize many members of the organization along the road to join the escort team. ”
In the time that followed, Captain Moninina personally rushed over to join the escort team. We always thought that after a few attempts to clean the tails that followed the escort party, the enemies would realize the difficulty. But it seems to have had the opposite effect. The escort is said to be extremely important, but in reality, only the top management knows. It's just that our fierce resistance has made the enemy think a little too much. Therefore, after this time, there may be a few not very good encounters in succession. Most of the enemies came from the Flame Alliance, and after entering these small countries, they hired many bounty hunters and mercenaries with their financial resources. That's all we know so far. It won't be easy to get past it, it's not a leisurely follow the cargo and wait to reach the destination. Be prepared, but don't be overly nervous. Since you are not the main force, the actual escort team is the 'Gumu' team under the 'Green Tree', and some of you should know the strength of this team. ”
"Your main enemies are hired bounty hunters and mercenaries, who have been in small countries for many years, and should be well aware of them. The man paused, "This train is going straight to our destination, and when we arrive, we will go to the temporary meeting place first." There is a warehouse of hidden supplies left by the organization, weapons and ammunition, etc., and there are enough stocks there. Try to take advantage of yourself, and there will be an army from the Kingdom of Chir to come to help. ”
"Still have questions?" The man looked around and saw that no one was talking, so he nodded to himself, turned to sit down, and began to rest.
Early in the morning, Kasia wakes up from a half-sleep according to her biological clock. When I opened my eyes, I could only see the wilderness outside the window, where the low-rise buildings occasionally came into view. Without a reference, Kasia currently doesn't know where she is in the kingdom of Chill or which city in the border area she will be heading to.
"Deviated from the area mentioned in the mission. After looking at the time, Kasia was sure. If the destination remains the same, at this moment he and the people around him should have arrived at the city mentioned in the mission, "Farther away, then it should be certain that the escort mission has changed in the week or two that the man said, otherwise this would not have happened." At this time, the escort has most likely been cut off by the enemy from many possible routes. In terms of a little more cake, for the safety of the goods, the team should also be divided into several, the real goods in which team, or each team has no goods, is to hide the goods, wait until the situation improves and then pick up it is still unknown. ”
Sighing softly, Kasia turned her head, accustomed to this kind of knee-jerk analysis. Many times he had to do this, and the development of the forces, the factories, and the knights was now mostly supported by him alone through the most dangerous and vulnerable phases. It's been thought about a lot, at least it doesn't hurt.
"The people of the Flame Alliance, I don't know what the characteristics will be. Seeing that most of the others continued to rest with their eyes closed, Kasia dismissed the idea of taking out the book and reading it, and then closed her eyes as well. Thinking of Lina and Ciadra, I don't know what the two of them are like now after leaving the Brino region. There was little chance of seeing each other again, Kasia thought. The Flame Alliance is also a giant country comparable to the Empire, with a population base and area that ordinary people cannot imagine.
In this kind of thinking, it was close to three o'clock in the afternoon, and the train slowed down amid the sound of electronically synthesized prompts. The sunlight outside the window is strong, and you can feel the heat of the concrete floor through the glass window.
It's in a small city, and it's said it's a small city, but in fact, when you go in, you realize that it's not a big one.
The station was not alive in the slightest, the platform spread more than a hundred meters along the railway line, and the canopy used as a shelter was mostly rotten, leaving only a rusty frame. The station's management room was at the end of the platform, standing alone. Through the shattered windows, inside were cobwebs and dust, and no one had worked in them for a long time.
On the other side of the platform is a concrete road, dilapidated and pothole-riddled with cracks, zigzag into the town in the distance. On one side of the road, there are two blackened warehouses. An iron lock was symbolically placed on the door of the warehouse, and in the open space next to the door, several dry middle men slept on their clothes with their upper bodies exposed. The simple fan in his hand flipped from time to time once or twice. It's a porter waiting to get to work.
The movement of the train did not disturb them, and Kasia and the others got off the train, and they all glanced at the people, and only after there was no abnormality did they follow the only road to the small town ahead, led by the acting captain.
Halfway through, he left the road and went to the wilderness on the side. When it stopped, the ruins of a brick kiln appeared in front of him, and only a towering chimney stood about ten meters away, crumbling. The warehouse is just below the brick kiln, and looking at the traces of hastily disposed of the dust, someone has already been here.
The underground warehouse is about 100 square meters in size, and the protective door is still stone, very thick, and it is pushed open by manpower. The warehouse certainly doesn't have a ventilation system, and the moisture protection is all based on something placed on the lowest floor. The strong smell of anti-rust oil is somewhat deteriorated with a sour taste. The weapons and ammunition under the oil-wrapped paper still maintain the sparkle of the production line.
"Not an Imperial design model. Kasia symbolically took something in his hand, "The equipment on the Flame Alliance's side, the forces in the organization?" followed the team to the predetermined resting place in the small city, Kasia pondered the question.
It had always been thought that the Order was nothing more than something Tavel had created out of thin air with his own power and influence, but with recent understanding, this idea is gradually being disproved. It's not just Tavel, what Kasia can be sure of at the moment is that the organization he is in seems to be a real force, and although it is different from what Trevicon describes, it seems that its structure does not deviate much.
"It's more like the force that Tavel joined herself, and she was just pulled in by her. Or was she cooperating with someone else at this point? It is impossible for Tavel's strength not to know who he is in the Empire and the dangers that come with it. It seems that the possibility of cooperating with others is higher, and it can distract from the dangers that involve you. "The more Kasia thinks, the more she feels likely.
"Could it be that he found himself and Tavel's current behavior is the same as his own, pretending to be like this?"
Kasia was very vigilant, and of course there was no answer in the end, and it became a conjecture that needed various conditions and information to verify.
"We leave at 2 a.m., and by morning, we'll probably be able to get to the escort team. The acting captain said to everyone during the break, "In the next few days, there may be no time to rest." In these few short hours, I hope you will adjust to your condition. ”
