"I'm Hagrid, the head of the Chifeng Fortress, and I'm welcome, Lord Knight. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info "Hagrid jumped off the wall, strode over, and held out his right hand to the visitor.

Iron Slag donned his power armor helmet, raised his dark brown glass shield, and followed Hagrid.

He knew the Templar named Benjamin Rado, whom they had met three years earlier at the DR3713 schoolyear anniversary ball. At that time, Benjamin, under the arrangement of You Ge, deliberately provoked the conflict between Brian Reinhardt, the third heir of the Lion City, and himself, and then suppressed the other party to make him, a new Wilderness Knight, emerge and enter the mainstream media's attention.

Later, according to Eva Green, Benjamin Rado was a member of the Princess Guard, born in Silver City 33 in the Middle Continent, and was a vassal nobleman who had newly joined the Lombal system.

Iron slag was not surprised to meet Benjamin here. Because You Ge is the marshal of the Dawn Expeditionary Force, it is normal to place his henchmen in the army to enhance his control over the army.

However, now, Benjamin is not as humble and polite as he was back then, but puts on an arrogant attitude, politely shakes Hagrid's hand, and says: "I have come this time to be ordered by the Supreme Military Commander of the Fifth Theater, General Miro Field, and I hope that you can cooperate with the Wind Sand Castle side to clear the wild insect swarm in sections. Although it was a request, his tone was cold and tough, and there was no intention of negotiation at all.

Hagrid couldn't help but frown, although the movement was light and fleeting, it was still caught by Benjamin.

"Commander, I'm not consulting with you, I'm conveying the orders of General Miro Field." Benjamin said with a cold face.

"Where's the conscription order?" Hagrid asked. Since the other party's tone is so tough, he should take out the order document issued by the Wind Sand Castle Garrison Department.

"The war situation is urgent, and there is no need for paperwork." Benjamin said.

"Then it can't be helped." Hagrid said, spreading his hands. Not to mention whether the other party has an order document, even if he has, it is impossible for him to take the initiative to attack the swarm, it is purely an act of looking for death. Moreover, if the World Parliament really dares to issue such an order, it will be scolded by the mainstream media afterwards.

"I am the Overseer of this operation, not only on behalf of the orders of General Miro Field, but also on behalf of the will of the Light." Benjamin's eyes narrowed, and he threatened in a deep voice, "If you dare to disobey the order, be prepared to disappear with everyone here!" ”

This sounds outrageous and unreasonable, but it makes people dare not refute it. The temple has accumulated power for more than 2,000 years, and it is by no means possible that it can be formed overnight. If the world parliament makes a mistake, the whole world will scold it, and all kinds of media will criticize it, and they are eager to tear down the parliament hall. But if the temple did something, no one dared to criticize it easily, because those who opposed it were basically burned at the stake.

The iron slag standing on the side, looking at this little person who once served tea and poured water for himself, but at the moment he was high and domineering, only sighed that the world was changing too fast, which caught people off guard. Fortunately, he was wearing a helmet, and the Wilderness Knight had changed his livery and deliberately made it old, so the other party didn't recognize him, thinking that he was just an ordinary warrior under Hagrid.

"What are your specific arrangements...... What is ......" In a few breaths, Hagrid clenched his fist and released it, released it and clenched it, and finally took a deep breath and said. In the face of this most powerful organization in all of humanity, he has no way at all.

Seeing that Hagrid softened, Benjamin smiled slightly, put on a relatively gentle expression, and said: "Seriously, I don't want to embarrass you, but this is an order, for the sake of Wind Sand Castle, for the sake of humanity, we must make some sacrifices......" Then, he changed his words and said solemnly, "I need you to launch an attack on the swarm in eight hours, at nine o'clock in the morning in Silver City time and one hundred and twenty-sixth o'clock in the evening of Set time." ”

"When the time comes, I will also participate in the battle and do my part." Benjamin said.

"Let's do our best......" Hagrid said helplessly.

"Lord Commander, please don't show such a reluctant expression." Benjamin smiled and said, "Normally, the bugs that fall behind will drop dramatically due to lack of food, and it may be a good opportunity for you bounty warriors to make a fortune." ”

"You're saying it lightly, but I'm sure no one wants to make money in the bug tide." Hagrid said with a gloomy face. If he could, he would have slashed the other man's head with a sword.

As if sensing a hint of murderous intent in Hagrid's eyes, Benjamin smiled coldly and said provocatively: "What, do you want to do it?" With that, he made a gesture of "please", and then said in a long voice, "Yes, maybe you have a chance, but after that, this place will be razed to the ground, and you and your friends will be wiped out in the light." ”

Hagrid didn't speak, just quietly looked at the Templars in front of him.

"Worms, I hate you." Benjamin leaned forward and said in a low voice, "I hate the air you breathe, I hate the stench that comes from you, it's disgusting. With that, he jumped up, dragged the blue tail flame, and flew towards the city.

After Benjamin left, Hagrid raised his hand, sniffed his armpit, and said to himself, "I remember taking a shower." ”

"Haha......" Iron Slag was still a little unhappy, but when he saw Hagrid's appearance, he lost his temper.

A few minutes later, Iron Slag, Hagrid, Zhao Wenke, and Black Pig King gathered in the command center to discuss the response plan. And Lilith was in charge of internal management, and Sophia was in charge of the penalty area, so they didn't come up. As for Lao Niu, Iron Slag called him, but he refused: "I'm just a mechanic, I don't know what to command, you can discuss it, just let me cooperate." ”

"Brute!" The Black Pig King thumped the coffee table, but it didn't take much effort, otherwise the terrazzo would have cracked on several sides.

"It is estimated that the scale of this wild insect tide is too large, and in order to reduce the pressure on the wind and sand castles, let us also bear a part." Zhao Wenke analyzed.

"But we're on the front line, and once we attract too many bugs, we can't handle them." Hagrid said.

"And that's not the most troublesome ......," Iron Slag said with a frown. The reason why Lena woke up just now was because the number of insect swarms was so large that it buried the entire fortress like a dumped mud, which affected her mood. And there are no hind insects behind the wild insect tide, and when faced with powerful creatures, they will instinctively choose to avoid them.

If there are more insects in the next combat power, it will infest Lena again. Lena's awakening will trigger a vision of the swarm retreating, which will arouse Benjamin Rado's suspicions. And the other party is You Ge's person, if the assassination is carried out in this situation, it will definitely be an unwise choice.

Iron Slag didn't finish the second half of the sentence, because he didn't want to say too much about Lena.

"Maybe the situation is not as bad as we thought, according to the previous data, the late stage of the wild insect tide is indeed relatively weak, and it is ......," Zhao Wenke explained while holding a tablet and quickly browsing the information, "The larger the scale of the insect tide, the more scarce the food, the less food the insects in the rear can get, and the weaker they are." ”

"Won't bugs devour each other?" The Black Pig King asked, "When there is a famine in the southern cemetery, cannibalism is not uncommon."

"No, it won't." Zhao Wenke shook his head, if the wild insect swarm would kill each other, there would not be such a large-scale insect tide, unless there was a posterior insect manipulation behind it.

"Forget it, don't think too much, just fight when you need to." Hagrid stood up and said dryly, "Let's all go back and rest." ”

"Hmm." The other three nodded at the same time.

Six hours later, it was 7 a.m. on DR3716-12-19 and 124 p.m. S. time.

The first waves of insects poured into the Wind Sand Castle, and the sound of gunfire suddenly resounded throughout the city.

Raff, the small owner of the bakery, hides in the corner of the kitchen, clutching a shotgun tightly and trembling like a mouse dodging a house cat. He was just a microcosm of this large dimensional city, and tens of millions of civilians, just like him, hid in their homes and shivered.

The other part of the city is brightly lit.

In the heart of the sandcastle, one of the most upscale hotels, the Grand Plato Hotel is surrounded by raccoon armored vehicles and flamingo-style mechs, as well as thousands of heavily armed mercenaries. They all had submachine guns with mufflers in their hands and were vigilantly patrolling the surroundings.

"Let Jean, please let Jean, you have worked hard, you have worked hard......"

A slightly fat middle-aged man weaves his way through vehicles and mechs, waving to the mercenaries standing in front of him. He Xin, the commissioner of the Mining Committee of Wind Sand Castle, had come to the Grand Plato Hotel to attend a secret dinner at Polar Paradise.

After a long while, he finally reached the door of the hotel, and two waitresses immediately greeted him.

"Dear guests, welcome to the Grand Plato."

"I want to see your hall manager." He Xin straightened up and said as he walked inside.

At the notice of the waiter, the hall manager soon came over.

As soon as the "Honorable ......" spoke, a golden card was handed to him.

Seeing the thorny font on the card, he immediately bowed deeply, and then without saying a word, he took the guest to the elevator, swiped the card on the recognizer, and came to the "eighteen and one-half" floor of the hotel.

This is a hidden space on the eighteenth to nineteenth floors, which is not displayed on the elevator, and can only be activated through the membership card of Paradise, and then you can go to that floor.

At this moment, He Xin was in a nervous mood. Although he is an official of the Wind Sand Castle, he is not a big person, and this kind of place is the first time to come here.

It is said that Paradise has a history of thousands of years, and it is a secret organization with pleasure as the core, and there are business establishments in every city in the Silver City world.
