"But that was more than a year ago, and now that the Society has made an enhanced version of it, it proves that weakness is no longer a weakness, and it may even be a hidden murder. Besides, from the detailed analysis of the photos, this upgraded version has been quite improved in terms of size, armor and firepower, maybe the fourth and fifth divisions may not be able to win, I think the price is too high, it is not worth the republic, is there no progress? ”

"That's right, like us, the vanguard was completely wiped out, by a purple-red humanoid weapon."

"If you start a war on two fronts, you may still have the strength to spare, so it's best not to attack rashly."

"Hmm. Lieutenant General Varta also felt the same way, so he did not move for the time being after the first wave of attacks - on the contrary, on the part of the Republic, once again gathered a larger army, and seemed to be preparing to continue the attack. ”

"Then let them fight well." Rien smiled a dark, hideous smile that resembled her own father (Claire: I'm going to protect this smile. "We took the opportunity to gather intelligence. ”

"The military headquarters has already issued a deployment to the Fifth Mecha Division and even the Fourth Mecha Division to make a large-scale attack, but it is not allowed to cross the Grand Canyon of Gareria."

"Tsk, Jiang is really still old and spicy, and the staff officers and generals of the military department are all very ruthless." Li En couldn't help but applaud, the strongest military power in the Western Continent was by no means in vain.

"This is war, all for the Empire." Claire's expression was serious.

"Well, that's war, it's all for the Empire." Rien's eyes narrowed, even if the future of the empire was based on the suffering of other regions, which was the same in any world, "Is there any other anomaly on Crossbell's side?" ”

"Yes, from the side of the Garelian Fortress, it is clearly visible that the city of Crossbell is shrouded in a blue-white hemispherical film." Claire is really a big intelligence broadcast today, "The purpose is unknown, the only thing that is certain is that the communication between the inside and outside of the film is completely cut off, and I think Li En must have lost contact with the guerrilla association over there." ”

"Indeed, that should be the power of the Arcana, and Liberal's "Empty Treasure" also showed a similar barrier ability, which is still incredible when I think about it. Captain Claire, please be sure to tell the Galleria Fortress to be cautious, common sense is useless in front of the Arcana. ”

"I see." Claire gave Lane a military salute, "I take your advice to heart. If you have the opportunity in the future, we hope that you can help us. ”

"Definitely." Li En nodded solemnly, "As an imperial person, you should think about your country. This philosophy will not change whether I go from the army after graduation to become a guerrilla or choose another career. If you can, I hope that the captain will also give more guidance if possible in the future. ”

"Don't be glared at by Miss Sarah," Claire smiled playfully.

"Haha," Lane laughed too.

(The child daughter-in-law is so cute, but why did Sister Songlai leave like this?) May there be no sickness in the kingdom of heaven. ）

In this way, the night festival came to an end, and the 127th "Tolz Military Academy Festival" officially came to an end.

There is no doubt that it was a happy ending, and the greatest contributor to it was none other than Rian, but his efforts were destined to be unknown and not even recorded.

And starting with the end of the academy festival, the curtain of the imperial **** slowly opened.

What happened beyond Riene's and even Claire's predictions: the aristocratic faction seized on the news of the defeat of the regular army's attack on Crossbell and hyped it up, and the official media, underground messages, and other means were exhausted, and they were stunned to render a stormy scene.

The most surprising thing is that the major newspapers controlled by the aristocratic faction actually published a photo of the blue god machine sweeping away eighteen main chariots with one shot - it seems that the connection between the two parts of the "Phantom Flame Project" is much closer than he thought, but it is not known whether it is Kemparella's scheduling, or the connection between the second pillar and the sixth or seventh pillar, or the collusion between Kane and the Currois family.

Either way, that's not good news for Lane. His plan to have Lixia sneak back to the empire as a "surprise soldier" is likely to be affected, and he can only hope that Zeit's way to hide from the world.

You're a divine wolf, Cait, stop pretending to be Erha, come up with some real skills, otherwise the name of the guardian beast will cry, hey!

In the days that followed, the Erebonian Empire was plunged into unprecedented tensions. The photo of the power of the gods was widely circulated, and many people of the empire were terrified. Eighteen heavy chariots were destroyed with a single shot, so what about the Garelian Fortress, the eastern gate of the Empire? Will it also be vulnerable?

Along with the spread of the photos, there are also many gossip that are not true or false, such as: In the past few days, the mecha division of the regular army of the empire has attacked Crossbell several times, but each time it has been easily repulsed, and even the whole army has been wiped out. For example, the long-time rival Republic of Calvard has formed an alliance with Crossbell and united in an invasion of the Empire.

At the same time, the empire's economy began to fall into disorder because of the IBC's asset freeze. Many businesses were on the verge of bankruptcy, and the imperial capital also generated a large number of unemployed. So the Imperial Capital Office and the Imperial Government cooperated with each other and began to control the situation. It is precisely because of the economic problems that the reformers did not make intelligence operations in the first place, so that now rumors are spreading and people are panicking. Of course, it is not ruled out that "Iron Prime Minister" deliberately connived at it because of more far-reaching considerations.

With the empire out of the way, let's look at Crossbell again.

The first attack on the white god machine, which had never been dispatched, finally wielded, and a single wormhole cannon (space banishment or annihilation) eliminated the second wave of the Republic's attack, and the airship, tank, and their pilots all disappeared without a trace, leaving only a huge hemispherical hole in the ground, which was terrifying.

From this point on, the independent state of Crossbell, with its indestructible absolute strength, launched a unique diplomatic strategy, that is, proposed to establish the "Alliance of the States of the Continent of Semuria" with Crossbell as the leader of the alliance. This idea of vetoing all wars and guaranteeing all free economic activity is very attractive to small states and autonomous states that have long suffered from the oppression of empires and republics.

Liber, Remiphilia, and the Codex of Altria, who initially objected to this hard-line approach, were powerless to turn the situation around, and eventually remained silent.

At the same time, the economic crisis in the Republic of Calvard erupted as a result of the events in Crossbell, and anti-immigrant terror began to intensify.

As for the Empire, the aristocracy finally broke off the last vestiges of camouflage and began to clash with the reformers, which could turn into a large-scale civil war at any time.

On the other hand, the association "The Snake of the Body" presented itself as Crossbell's "Kind Helper" and made its position known to governments in an informal form.

Today, there is no force left to stop President Dita's ambitions.

PS: The above is the official statement of Kezhou and does not represent the real facts. For example - are you sure that the Codex State is powerless to turn the situation around? Are Kevin and Waji really vegetarians? Believe it or not, if "Association" doesn't make a move, the twelve guardian knights are all here, all kinds of ancient relics are out, and even the Monk and Soldier Province and the Ceremony Province can push off Qiya at this stage without making a move? (To be continued.) )
