Chapter 12 The Expedition

The cold current of winter is swept away by the spring breeze, and the earth that has been silent for a long time brings a piece of vitality, the grass is green, the flowers are blooming, the animals that have been sleeping for a long time are chasing each other, on the ocean, the wind and clouds are surging, the sound of the waves is still the same, from time to time, active fish come out of the sea, embracing the blue sky.

The end of the sky, the corner of the sea, on the protruding rocks on the beach, the girl stands in the wind, the long silver-white hair moves with the wind, sometimes fluttering in the air, sometimes sprinkled on the waist, the white dress, in this spring equinox, it shows the girl's liveliness and agility, white, noble and elegant, under the backdrop of dozens of men in windbreakers behind her, it is more weak and sacred.

The quiet girl clasped her hands tightly in front of her chest, and slowly lowered her far-sighted gaze, praying silently for her beloved man, praying for the mutual protection of each other.

On the deck, at the stern of the ship, the man stood against the wind, looking at the white figure in the distance, and did not move a step for a long time, until the white angel disappeared from his field of vision, inadvertently raised his right hand, a string of metal chains fell from his hand, his clenched fingers slowly opened, and a ruby heart was introduced into the eye, which was more brilliant under the sunlight.

"This is my token, the family heirloom treasure, I remember when I don't remember, my grandfather, gave this to me, and this ruby necklace symbolizes ideals and pursuits, it is said that two hundred years ago, Lord Rizilech once wore ......" The girl gently brought it to the boy, and said softly.

"Lady Richelech, I remember as the Prince's Wife, who gave her life for the Seven Years' War, and is called the Saint of Winter!" said the boy, looking at the maiden in front of him.

"Yes, it's her, my grandmother...... She used to bring gems......" the girl laughed.

"It's so precious, it has such a long history, it's still a family inheritance, and you gave it to me, it's not a gift anymore, I can't ask for it!" said the boy, shaking his head.

"No, it's trust! You are my man, my guardian knight, my dependence, Alice Phil's eternal patron saint. ”

"Etude ......" boy brushes the girl's hair......

Just as Musk was looking at the ruby necklace full of happy memories, an inopportune time interrupted his train of thought.

"Godfather, I can't see it anymore. Carmen next to her said faintly from behind the man, "It's windy at sea, you better go back to the cabin."

Musk looked back, frowned slightly, it turned out to be a bald Carmen, and I don't know if it is the tradition of the Cleone family, these descendants always become bald when they reach a certain age, so they simply shave their heads directly, saving the middle light and having hair all around, and the image is always returned, his brother Jack? Cleo is called a vulture inside and outside, and eats all black and white on the road, men, women and children, and has never been picky, so he got this nickname, and his younger brother relied on real strength, real swords and real guns, and stepped on the blood of the enemy, the man who walked out of the sea of corpses and fire, was honored by his enemy as the vulture Carmen.

This guy is not an ordinary man, God gave him a strong body, so that when he was young, when he was hunting in the mountains, he killed a fierce wolf, and the blood sprayed into his eyes, and from then on, day and night, under his eyes, everything was bright.

"Uh, it's Carmen! Carmen...... Do you know what love is?"

Hearing love, Carmen was stunned for a moment, frowned slightly, and then relieved, and said, "Love, there are no such things in my life dictionary, if you want to talk about the relationship between men and women, then there is only sex; that is a reliever before the battle, everything is for the battle, and everything that fights is for the prosperity of the family, and the prosperity of the family is the standard for the prosperity of the black hand."

"I see, Carmen, you don't know love, then, answer me, do you have a wife?" Musk chuckled when he heard such a chic answer.

"No, the Cleone family already has a heritage, and my brother, Jack, has a son and a daughter, so as a warrior, I can only fight. Carmen said.

"A warrior needs a wife, and that's what you are protecting. Musk said

"I've got someone to protect, and that's you, the Godfather, and the Cleones!" Carmen replied.

"No, you're wrong, that's not guarding, the Cleone family gave birth to you and raised you, that's your responsibility, and I'm your master, that's the object of your allegiance, so as a man, in your life, you need to have the object of your protection, to have a warm haven. Musk suddenly laughed as he spoke.

"I'm a warrior, I ......" Carmen laughed inexplicably as she looked at the young godfather, a little inexplicable in her heart, but replied quickly.

"But you're more of a man, well, you're a dumb bird, and when you find the woman you love, and marry and have children, you'll be what you need to protect, what is love. Musk smiled and walked away, leaving only Carmen's depressed expression under the hearty laughter.

"Black, Dennis, do you know what love is?" asked Carmen, with a stiff expression on her face, as she turned to one of the three men next to her.

"Head, love is a drug, you can't stop eating it......" Dennis said as he smoked a cigarette.

"You hypocrite, the godfather has given a clear order, don't do drugs anymore!"

“……”

…… Egypt-Cairo ......

Under the desert-surrounded oasis, there is a railway station, surrounded by people on the white stones on both sides of the tracks, and on the scattered white stones are three dry corpses that do not look like people.

"Mark, are you sure it's our people?" asked a man in a suspender shirt, then put on a pair of white gloves and constantly examined the dried corpses on the ground without a trace of blood.

"My men, can I still admit that these three people are the good men I sent to England to explore the Rick family on the orders of the head of the family, Lord Jack, and I received news from them a few days ago that they had made a major breakthrough in Egypt, and this is the grand plan of the adults. Dressed in a black coat with a high hat and a traditional black hand, Mark said.

"Huh...... This is not the moment for you to hint at the credit, the important link is suddenly broken, and you ask me to let what to repay the godfather? Count the days, the godfather estimates that the modern era is already in Cairo. The man who examined the corpse looked back.

"Lineker, I've always thought this thing was weird, you know, the cemetery is cursed! Look at the way they look, it's definitely ...... Absolute...... Kerr, you and I are grasshoppers on the same line, and if I'm finished, you won't be able to get out of it!" Mark said as he thought about it, the more terrifying it became, and his voice grew louder.

Lineker, who was crouching, suddenly stood up, grabbed Mark by the collar and pushed him against the wall behind him, and said viciously, "Are you an idiot, you are not looking for the answer to the question now, you are actually depressed and talking to me such illusory nonsense, and you want to threaten me, you must know that in our life dogma, the godfather is the god we believe in!"

"Alright, alright, I see, man, I'm so sorry, damn it, I'd rather charge in battle than do this mental work of tracking and seeking. Mark shook his head and said to Lineker in front of him.

"Hmph, these three people, if you look closely, you may understand what is happening, the water in the whole body, including the blood, has evaporated, what happened to them, this is the reason for our exploration, but now what we need to know is not how they died, but the clue that has just improved is suddenly broken, we must find it from the fog, and if we find the lost clue, we will know the reason for their death, and we will be able to complete the order of the godfather." Lineker said.

"Alright, I'll go to Cairo now to see if the Godfather has arrived, and now you should hurry up and find out where Rick and Evelyn are; Lineker said with a glance at Mark, and walked off into the distance.

Mark looked at the three corpses, gasped, and suddenly his eyes were stunned, as if he remembered something, and shouted to Lineker who was walking in the distance, "Kerr, you see, three more of my people have died, for the task of searching, well, I don't have enough manpower, I need your help"

……

A modest hotel in Cairo, which has been paid for a great deal of money, is neither large nor small, and the terrain is halfway between the city center and the fringes, and it is not obtrusive, and it is suitable for a serious business base.

There are two or three figures around, walking around inadvertently, to play the role of a hotel guard......

In the basement of the hotel, two men were talking to each other, several candles brought a little light to the dimly lit room, and two figures sat in the dark corners on either side of the rectangular wooden table. On the table are all kinds of advanced weapons and ammunition.

"Lord Carmen, these are the most advanced individual weapons in the world at present, you see this is made in Germany, this one, it is American, and this, although the British semi-automatic firearms are always off target, but their shotguns are still good, and their weapons companies still like to cater to the hunting preferences of the nobles. The old man's voice came from a dark shadow, and in order to make the other party hear his words clearly, the figure leaned forward slightly, and the big white beard face was a little pale in the light of the candlelight.

"How good is this carbine?" asked Carmen, looking at the weapons in front of her for a long time, then picking up one of them.

"The performance of this gun is stable, there is rarely jamming, the rate of fire is fast, the distance is relatively short, the fire suppression is powerful, the model is AR60/70, developed by the Italian company Beretta. The old man replied slowly.

"Okay, equip all of my elite squad with this weapon, and the periphery personnel use British-made single-barrel shotguns, is it enough for the guns in the inventory?"

"Yes, sir, you can replenish everything you need here, since we were notified relatively early, so we have been preparing for a long time, Lord Carmen, don't worry about that. The old man said, smiling, revealing his yellow front teeth.

At this time, the wooden door on the stairs in the basement suddenly came with a sound. Boom... Boom......

"Who?" said Carmen, in a low voice.

"I'm Dennis, Head, there's a situation!"
