The clock moves forward to an hour or two ago.

The capital of the Zuan region, Zuan Castle, is built on the mountain. On the outskirts of Zu'an, at the foot of the 100,000 Great Mountains, there is a quarry called Hindrei.

"In the army, I've been thinking about that guess you said for the past two days, if it's true, then ...... It's really a big problem. ”

Five-star General Konica, chairman of the Federal All-Army Operations Committee and commander of the Eastern Military District, sat in a wheelchair and said to a young man pushing a wheelchair behind his back.

The young man's name is Gu Congjun, and he is the youngest son of Gu Changfeng, deputy commander of the Eastern Military Region. He has been taken by Konica since he was a child, and now serves as Konica's deputy captain of the personal guard.

General Konica's closest companion, the elven beast tamer master Aurazer Yinyue, who has always guarded him in his wheelchair, was sent by Konica to the Northern Military Region after the Beihai Heavy Industry case to help General Gu Changfeng suppress a possible mutiny.

So the guards beside him were replaced by Gu Congjun, which shows General Konica's trust in this young man.

"General, everything will be discussed until the investigation is clear. Even if it's true, we still have time to cope. ”

The young man replied humbly.

General Konica patted the armrest of the wheelchair, "Let's go." ”

Several Zaun magistrates took the lead and walked up the hill along the gravel path of the Sindrei Quarry.

In a few minutes, they came to a mountain col.

A leading sheriff walked up to General Konica and spoke:

"Your Excellency, Honorable General, it is my great pleasure to introduce to you some of the anomalies that we have discovered. ”

As we all know, the Zuan region is the most civilized place in the whole federation.

The Zaum region is home to the largest ethnic minority in the Federation, the Zuan people. In the era of the Rising Sun Empire, the Zuan people were synonymous with chaos, vulgarity, and vulgarity. However, after the establishment of the Federation, the Zuan Region began to build a vigorous spiritual civilization.

For example, if you speak rudely, you will face a ban of up to 360 days.

After thousands of years of indoctrination and transformation, the civilization level of the Zuan people has been greatly improved, and it has become synonymous with the civilization and etiquette of the Federation.

The sheriff politely briefed General Konica about the situation.

About two weeks ago, the workers of the Sinderje quarry, in the process of quarrying, discovered that there was a huge cave in the belly of the mountain here.

At first, the workers did not pay attention to it, and it was normal for the mountain to be hollow, but they carefully avoided quarrying at the location of the cave, so as not to damage the mountain structure and cause a landslide.

Until some workers discovered that there were obvious unnatural traces in the cave.

The inner walls of the cave are smooth and neat, and the top is regularly arched, which is evidence of the non-natural formation of the cave. And the end of the cave is covered with huge stones, which are even more obvious unnatural traces.

It seems that these stones cut off the cave from something.

So the Sindrei quarry reported the situation, and the local authorities reported the situation to the garrison.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency General, but we didn't expect you to come and check it out for yourself. At first, we were only skeptical that there would be some powerful monsters nesting here in the mountains, thus endangering the lives of the residents. ”

The sheriff concluded.

"There are no more demonic beasts on the continent of Humans, and there will be no one in the 100,000 mountains. General Konica said with certainty, "Are you sure this cave wasn't dug by your men?"

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency, we dug the mountain wall to discover the cave inside. IMHO, no one can keep the outer mountain wall intact and dig such a large hole inside. ”

"Is there any movement behind these stones?"

"Oh, honorable General, we really don't have the capacity to dig up so many, such a large stone. This requires a large number of high-purity elemental crystals to be blasted, and can also cause serious landslides. Forgive us, Your Excellency General, for we are not capable of doing so. ”

"The Zuans...... It's too much to talk now...... Civilized a little. General Konica spit softly.

"What? Your Excellency General, what did you say? I'm sorry I didn't hear clearly, I'm very sorry. ”

"It's nothing......," Konica said, shaking her head, "Stand back, I'll do it." ”

He raised a hand, and the cuffs of his white military uniform slipped slightly, revealing a wrist. The slight movement of his wrist was small, but as his wrist turned, the huge stones, starting from the top, slowly turned into quicksand and slid down.

The speed at which the stones turned into quicksand became faster and faster, and the quicksand gradually merged into a sand waterfall, rushing from high to low.

By the time there was about a third of the stone wall left, Konica had already made sure that the cave would not collapse, and with one hand in his hand, the remaining boulders silently turned into powder in an instant, and then fell one after another, dust to dust, and earth to earth.

The scene behind the stone wall was finally revealed to everyone.

It's a vast tunnel that leads deep into the unfathomable darkness of the distance.

Gu Congjun threw a flare inside, and the flare flew along the tunnel with bright light, rolling for a long distance.

But the light still couldn't reach the end of the tunnel.

General Konica's expression did not change, as if he was lost in thought.

But suddenly, in a very fast voice, he commanded, "Everyone, get out of here at once." ”

Gu Congjun behind him asked him a little puzzled: "General, don't we go in and investigate?"

General Konica ignored him, or rather, simply did not have room to pay attention to his questions, and a barrage of orders had already come out of his mouth.

"Zhou Zhuo, prepare for the flying falcon. ”

"When you join the army, you immediately know the situation of the local garrison in the Zu'an region, the more detailed the better. ”

"Everyone is ready to evacuate to the nearest garrison base. ”

"Except for you, Max, you immediately rush to the nearest airship inn, and take off as soon as you arrive, and the destination, the military headquarters of the Eastern Military District of the Watchman State, convey my order to Deputy Commander Philip, and carry it out immediately. ”

Zhou Zhuo, who was named, picked up two cages containing flying falcons, and suddenly seemed to understand something, and asked, "Could it be that the imperial people dug through the entire 100,000 mountains?"

"Don't interrupt me," Konica reprimanded him, "Max, the order is as follows: Commander Philip is asked to leave only fifteen regular divisions in the Shouwang State, and continue to deploy according to the Shouwang State defense line, and all other troops, led by him personally, move south along the foothills of the 100,000 Great Mountain......

"No, let him not move south, all troops, with the shortest route and the fastest speed, to defend Fort St. John!"

The messenger, Max, was stunned by the general's order.

"What are you doing there?" Konica scolded, "Execute it now!"

Max gave a hurried military salute and ran to the parking lot at the foot of the mountain. Konica's orders continued.

"Okay, Zhou Zhuo, scatter all the falcons on hand, and issue an order in the name of the Federal All-Army Operations Committee, the Southern Military Region, the Northern Military Region, and the Western Military Region will all perform the same actions as the Eastern Military Region. ”

"General, if it's really a very urgent order, why don't you use magic ravens?" Zhou Zhuo asked.

"Magical ravens? Before Master Hepsius disappeared, there weren't many magical ravens left, most of them were in the hands of those families. The Ke family's magic ravens were all used up as early as the Second East-West War, and who would contribute the precious magic ravens to the Federation?"

General Konica finally had the leeway to respond to Zhou Zhuo's question, and his tone was slightly mocking.

"I ...... There is also one on my body, which my father gave me a letter to him at the most critical moment," the only son of the former commander of the Northern Military District, pulled out a small paper crow from his space, "It's just that the anchor point is my father." ”

"Use it, then. General Konica sighed softly, "Tell your father to return to North Bay State immediately and regain command of all the Northern Military Districts." ”

"Okay. ”

Zhou Zhuo agreed, wrote a few words on the paper crow, and with a clap of his hands, the paper crow disappeared into a ripple of spatial fluctuations.

"Zhou Zhuo," General Konica raised his hand and patted Zhou Zhuo's shoulder gently, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." ”
