Chapter 659 Traveler

[Thank you to the Phantom of Zixiao, user 72372853, Brother Wuma and 2000 for the big monthly ticket support. There is also a reward from Brother Xiang and the cat on fire.]

The locomotive was flying in the wilderness, and a smoker rolled up in the rear of the car. The oncoming strong wind made the knight's silver hair pull all the rear. Rein, wearing a protective eye shield, was expressionless and only kept blowing the speed of the locomotive to the end of the oil needle, which was already over 300 kilometers of horrible speed!

Desolation in the wilderness.

This is the real dead silence.

Under the fire of the Augustus family and the Yingling Hall, there is no gap where mutaves can survive in the wilderness that used to be the battlefield. They either died in the flames of war or had already gone away. The ruins of the city have been razed into a large area of scorched earth.

After the scorched earth, the black earth, was attacked by the war, and the land suffered more serious consequences than radiation pollution. A large amount of explosives exploded, the ** of various war machines, and the power of capable people bombarded. The damage caused by these things is far deeper and more serious than simple radiation pollution. It is foreseeable that in the next few decades or even hundreds of years, there will be no grass here.

Even the most tenacious mutacious plants cannot take root in this scorched earth. Relying on the planet's own purification ability alone, we don't know how long it will take to recover. What's more, this planet wrapped in radiation clouds does not have its own purification ability.

Lein sometimes finds it ironic that human beings need to invest a lot of resources and time to make little progress in purifying the environment. But destruction only takes a blink of an eye. He is not a pacifist, but he also hates war.

Unfortunate, the war is not what he can control. And those who can control the war are eager for it to happen.

When driving through the wilderness, Rein seemed to see something and quickly looked at a small hillside in the distance.

But how fast he is now, even the time to stay for one second, and the hillside has gone infinitely far away. But Rein still saw two figures, which seemed to be a pair of travelers. People wear hoods that can cover their faces, and there are long objects arched behind one of them, which should be something like guns. And on that shoulder, there is a yellow, strange creature lying on it.

Travelers, people hiking on the mainland. These people have a variety of identities, including displaced people who have been forced to leave their homes, and mercenaries wandering around. They may be solo adventurers or wilderness thugs who rob houses. But no matter what, Rein felt strange to see the figure of the traveler in this war-torn wilderness.

Now the news of the war between the Dark Parliament and the Spirit Hall may even be heard of the aliens in the far west and the black land in the southwest, not to mention other areas where human beings gather. Hearing this news, they will still come to the battlefield, either to join the capable or mercenaries of both sides of the battle, or adventurers to pick up leaks.

The so-called picking up leaks is picking up cheap. After the war, a large amount of supplies will be left behind, from chariots, guns and even corpses are the targets of adventurers. Of course, if you want to grab something between the two giants, you must have enough matching strength as a backing, otherwise you will die.

Look at the two thin figures, it seems that neither of them.

Maybe it's just a simple passing by, Rein thought.

And under the wilderness hillside where he was far away, the figure walking in front of him stretched out his hands. The fingers of these hands were slender and flexible, and it gently took off the hood on its head, so a long silver-colored hair like Rein danced in the air of the wilderness. The owner of the silver hair said unexpectedly, "Well, isn't the person who just passed by a parliamentary knight who appeared in the shadow capital three years ago?"

The voice is crisp, and it is a girl's voice. But the companion behind her chose to be silent. The girl seemed to be used to it and casually touched a round creature on her shoulder, so the creature made a tender voice: "La--"

Before dusk, Rein successfully returned to Phoenix. Phoenix has now been taken over by the Augustus family, and the flag of Phoenix is no longer flying over the city, but the emblem of Augustus. When Rein returned to the city, soldiers had already led the bullet locomotive for him, and Rein himself got into a car waiting at the gate of the city.

The car drove to the city's master's mansion, which was the residence of General Morgan, the former owner of the city. Now the owner of Phoenix is no longer owned by the white-haired old man, but the residence of General Morgan and other related properties have been retained by the Augustus family. 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, the only one in the city that is enough to receive her is the city lord's mansion.

Therefore, after receiving the news, Rein has informed Phoenix that it is ready for reception, and the city owner's house is now busy.

"Hurry up, fresh lamb chops and vegetables will be sent to the kitchen right away!"

"Daw, what are those cooks still rubbing?"

What about the pastry chef? Come and help!"

"Who can help me bring strawberries? How can I make strawberry jam without it?"

When Rein arrived at the city master's house, he heard these messy sounds. People ran around the mansion, and no one even had time to look at Rein, let alone say hello. General Morgan, who was only dressed in a suit, waited at the gate. When he saw Rein, he smiled and said, "Your Excellency, you're back."

Lein nodded and apologized, "I'm really sorry, General Morgan. According to the agreement, we would not disturb your life. Just the one who wants to come to Phoenix..."

General Morgan waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. It's my honor to be able to receive the chief of the bloody 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 Xiuya likes it.

Lein said with a wry smile, "That's up to her. After all, we are on the front line, not her mansion in Yongye City."

Next, Rein was also busy. He first took a shower, and then the maid put on a white suit for him, then put on a bow tie and combed his hair. Rein in the mirror changed. The bloody warrior on the front line immediately turned into a elegant nobleman, and the eyes of several maids lit up.

It was already dusk when he finished doing this, and General Morgan's voice also sounded outside the door: "Your Excellency, Miss Xiuya has arrived."

At the gate east of Phoenix, Rein saw a convoy coming towards Phoenix along the highway from afar. In front of it is an off-road vehicle, which has obviously been modified. In addition to the fact that the car 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 car continue to spewing gray smoke.

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

That's her elegant hair, and her long blue hair is her mark. With her, the off-road vehicle certainly does not need any heavy weapons, because she herself is far more than any heavy weapons.

In the back of the off-road vehicle, there are hundreds of motorcycles. The knights on these motorcycles are Xiuya's guard and members of the glacier. But Rein remembered that when the young lady in the parliament pulled up the flag and went to the black earth, at least thousands of people volunteered to join the guard glacier under her skirt. But now there are only more than 100 people left. It seems that the expedition of the black earth in the past two years is very cruel.

But because of this, more than 100 people who survived are calm and generous, and everyone's eyes are awe-inspiring, and none of them is easy to provoke.

The convoy stopped when it came to the gate, and a flamboyant figure jumped off the SUV.

Xiuya. BLUE LSTER IS 168CM TALL. Wearing the blood knight's uniform, but it seems that for the convenience of fighting, the original robe was changed to a short leaning, and the short leaning was a white red waist, revealing a sexy navel. The lower body is dark red leggings, which emphasizes Xiuya's long and straight leg line. When her legs were together, there was no gap.

Her long blue hair is flying like an ice cloud, and the two-year campaign has not left any trace on Xiuya's face. Her proud and arrogant temperament in her beauty is still the same, clearly the person she looks up to. But somehow, there is a feeling of being looked down in front of her eyes.

That's an empty look, but what's terrible is that this woman has the strength to despise all sentient beings.

It hasn't changed at all. Rein sighed and smiled, "Welcome, Miss Xiuya."

"Remove the young lady and call me Major General. I don't need such a weak title!" Xiu is elegant and humane.

Lein smiled bitterly in his heart. He knew that Xiuya was not easy to get along with, but he didn't expect to let himself hit a nail. For Rein, 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 you at the city lord's mansion." Rein replied.

"Banquet?" Xiuya let out a loud laugh: "If I remember correctly, this is the front line, right? The Augustus family is indeed the largest and strongest rich family in our parliament, and even on the front line can hold a welcome banquet. In this case, why have you been beaten back instead of advancing to the enemy camp to the west? Have you wasted resources on these so-called banquets?

The first two sentences can still be called pleasant, but in the last few sentences, Xiu Ya has become fierce. The fierce momentum of the iron-blooded soldier appeared from her, constantly reminding Rein that the woman in front of him was no longer the first knight, but also a major general!

Lein had a bitter smile in his heart. Before she went on an expedition two years ago, the young lady held a lot of banquets. A big banquet in January and a small banquet in three or four days are common. Her extravagance is as outstanding as her appearance. But today, two years later, the profligate lady is now accusing herself of her waste, and Rein really has the impulse to hit her head to death.

Before he could say anything, Xiu Ya's words changed again: "Forget it, for the sake of your enthusiasm. If you are tolerant, I will forgive you this time. Just prepare one person's food, and the rest will greet my soldiers. Remember, don't lower the specifications without permission. They have to eat what I eat!"

After saying that, Xiu Ya went straight into the gate.

Lein hurriedly followed, leaving General Morgan stunned. The white-haired old general finally saw what moody was. After coming to his senses, he quickly greeted her ice guard to the city. It's just that these people are expressionless and emit a special smell.

That's the smell of crawling out of the dead.

In the city lord's mansion, the banquet began to skip all the links. Xiuya had only one order and immediately put the food on the stage. All unrelated personnel left the scene and only left Rein and two waiters.

So facing a table of food, Xiuya began to eat. In her hand, knives and forks are flying. She moved quickly, and the delicious lamb chops quickly turned into a regular cube under her knife and fork, and then went into her lovely mouth and disappeared. At the same time, she is very elegant. Obviously, she eats quickly, but it doesn't give people a sense of urgency at all.

Under this efficient and elegant way of eating, the dishes in front of the body are constantly served. In just ten minutes, she has wiped out 20 pounds of lamb chops, a lot of desserts and cakes, plus several kilograms of fruit. Xiuya finally stopped and wiped her lips gracefully with a napkin, indicating that she was full.

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

He put the napkin on the table and said, "I haven't eaten so much food for a long time. Sometimes I have to eat raw meat in the black earth. Oh, what a demon-like day."

Rein could hear that Xiuya should not have had a good time in the past two years, so he said, "If you still need it, I can ask the kitchen to cook more dishes you like."

"No need." Xiuya shook her head and said, "Food is precious and should not be wasted on me alone." She smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for two years. Xiao Lai has grown a lot longer and is much more handsome."

Lein reminded: "According to age, I think I should be older than the young general."

Xia smiled and said, "Little Rein, there is a saying in the East that the master comes first. If you beat me, you can call me Xiao Xiuya. I won't mind at all.

After Rein carefully considered this proposal, he thought about it. So he said, "So Major General Xiuya, with all due respect, why did you come here this time?"

"Recommation."

Xiuya said casually, but she didn't expect that this answer almost made Rein spit out a mouthful of old blood. Xiuya smiled and said, "I lied to you."

She stood up and said, "Listen, this time I mainly brought my father's message. In view of the significance and importance of this war, my father decided to hand over the Blood Horse and the Corps to your eldest brother Hart. Of course, I didn't come for nothing. My guard glacier will go to the battlefield tomorrow, temporarily return to the blood horse, and give it to your eldest brother for unified command.

"What about you?" Rein asked cautiously.

Xiuya went to Rein's dining table, sat on the table, raised her legs, and said with an extremely charming expression to Rein: "Don't worry, I won't rob your eldest brother's command. To be honest, I am not interested in this war at all. It's really boring. So is my father. It's better to fight the black earth for me than to have this kind of resource.

In the face of Xiu Ya's beauty, Rein regarded it as a beast poison and quickly stood up and withdrew a little and said, "The council leader has his own considerations. It's better not to speculate more."

"Come on, little Rein, I don't know you yet. Your arrogance is not below me. Don't pretend to be loyal to my father. However, after I came back, I bored and looked through the task file of the bloody horse and found an interesting thing in it. Xiuya's words with a smile.

In general, it is not a good thing to make Xiuya feel interesting because of the cold back.

"I don't know what Major General Xiuya means?" Rein asked.

"When it's just the two of us, just call my name."

Lean nodded, and he had begun to get used to the capricious.

Xiuya looked at him with a smile and said, "It's really strange that there is a record of failure on Little Rein's mission file. That mission record is two years ago, and little Lai took over the task of executing a 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 had not yet torn apart the spirit hall, and they took the man away on the pretext of extradition. Naturally, it would not be a small role to 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!"

Lein couldn't help smiling and said, "This is not good."

Xiuya ignored him and said, "This is really an excellent man. He has emerged in Asgatry in just two or three years. Last year, he participated in Asgard's expedition to the alien circle in the far west. What is surprising is that after he came back, he turned into an alien leader. In addition, I heard that he and Asgard have also reached a number of cooperations, one of which is to develop a city called the City of Dawn near the Shadow Canyon. Little Rein, do you think this man is very capable?

"You have said so much that I don't seem to have any room to deny." Rein sighed.

"So, how can I not be fascinated by such a capable man? You have to understand that there are not many or even more men who can do better than me now, even if there are no more men who can stand side by side with me. Xiu Ya said sadly.

Lein couldn't help straightening his chest.

Xiuya laughed again, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Little Rein is not bad, and your eldest brother Hart is also quite good. It's just that you have today's status, and many of them come from the support of the family. But that man is different. He comes from the wilderness and can be said to have nothing. So, he and I are of the same kind!"

When it comes to this word, Xiuya's eyes jump with a spark called danger. Rein's heart sank straight, and what he was most worried about finally happened.
