Luray was the industrial center of the empire, the center of science and technology, and the guiding network covered the whole city, and not long after the declaration of independence was uploaded, the news spread. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, Rien and his friends happened to upgrade their equipment at the Luray University of Technology - using the remaining Semlia Stone Crystals.

In the original world line, George was not sure about forging the Semuria Stone Sword, and before forging the sword, he used some of the crystals to strengthen Valima's temporary mecha greatsword, as a hot hand and collect data. Now it was different, Dr. Schmidt took it upon himself from the beginning, and this part of the crystallization was omitted.

The size of the mecha soldier's greatsword is ten times that of "Youlandel", not to mention that the greatsword is a relatively large weapon, and this part of the crystallization is enough for the entire VII class plus the co-operatives to complete the weapon enhancement.

It is worth mentioning that reality is not a game, and with a "ding" sound in the game, the weapon will be upgraded, and in reality it must be at least in hours. At this time, it was already December 21, and the time for the Eastern Coalition to launch a general offensive was the morning of December 23, and aside from the flight time, there was really not much time for strengthening weapons.

In order to complete the weapon upgrade before the war began, George enlisted the help of his old friend, Dr. Schmidt's assistants, at Riene's suggestion.

As mentioned earlier, the Semrian stone is very scarce, and even Dr. Schmidt has limited access to it, let alone his assistants. Now that there is such an opportunity, how can this gang of technical nerds let it go, and immediately throw away the matter at hand and devote themselves to weapon upgrade work.

During the waiting period, Li En and his entourage, who had nothing to do, went to the computer room to browse the Internet for information. Then they saw this big news that caused a sensation in the whole of Sisemlia.

“......”

“......”

“......”

After looking at each other for a short time, Macchias "rattle" and took a bite of the melon-

Wait a minute? Where do melons come from?

Of course it was bought!

Peace was restored in the canton of Nodia, and Lure returned to its usual state, with shops open and vendors out.

On the way to the University of Technology, Lane, Alyssa, and Emma bought a lot of desserts and fruits—Lane inquired before they came, and George and his friends had a sweet tooth, and with a sweet tooth bonus, their work efficiency and motivation would skyrocket. By the way, this sweet treat also includes fruits that are high in sugar. It's a pity that there is no durian in Semuria, otherwise it must be the favorite of these tech nerds.

The VII class is all second-generation, and there is no one in the class who is poor in money, and they help the technical nerds buy food, so there is no reason not to buy it for themselves.

Therefore, when Li En clicked on the video, this group of second generations was watching while eating melons, worthy of the name of the melon-eating masses who did not know the truth.

By the way, the psychological quality of the second generation is good, and when they see such big news, they also firmly grasp the melon in their hands, and they do not pollute the environment.

The first of the melon-eating crowd to speak was Macchias: "What's going on?" The mayor is making a fuss about independence, and the speaker declares independence null and void? ”

"Hmph, my own people are fighting among themselves." Jusis threw the melon peel in his hand into the paper basket, "The harder you fight, the better, the harder you fight, the safer the empire." ”

"After all, there are such unreasonable big guys here, if you really want to attack the Empire, the Garelian Fortress will be in danger." Miriam took another piece for Jusis.

The purple and blue god machine's single machine annihilated the army, and the white god machine's ice cream digging (digging the ice cream of the second attack of the republic), its great power left a deep impression on the entire Western Continent, no, the whole of Semuria, that is by no means comparable to the army in the ordinary sense.

"Ryne, if those robots come over, will you and Valimar be able to handle it?" Laura asked.

"Huh? What did you say? Rien looked like he had just woken up from a dream, as if he had been immersed in his own world before.

"Laura asks you, if Crossbell attacks the Empire, will you be able to defeat those robots?" Faye repeated.

"Well, there's a problem with that of its own, Cross Bell is more than defending and not attacking enough." Coming back to his senses, Rien began to continue eating melons, "The most they can do is destroy the Garelian Fortress, well, as long as Commander Varta doesn't take the initiative to provoke the gods, they won't be idle and run around digging up ice cream in the fortress." ”

"Divine machine, huh? You seem to know them well? Alyssa Fox wondered.

"Do your homework beforehand." Rien said vaguely, "After the declaration of independence is issued, it will be the final stage on behalf of Cross Bell's side, and it is estimated that after Jusis arrests his father, Lixia and I will have to go there to help." ”

"How can you help?" Alyssa asked.

"Dismantling the god machine." Lane wiped his mouth, "Without dismantling this thing, it is impossible for Dita's rule to be overthrown." ”

"Riene, it's on your face." Emma, who was standing nearby, wiped her mouth with a handkerchief for Riene, attracting everyone's attention.

("The squad leader seems to have been very proactive lately. Elliot whispered. ）

("I think so too.") Gaius nodded secretly, "Maybe something happened in the 'Elven Cave'." ”）

Gaius didn't guess wrong, because of Vita's words, Emma changed her usual somewhat cowering attitude and began to take the initiative, sometimes even more active than Laura, which made some people feel a lot of pressure.

Of course, those who are stressed are not Lixia and Yanirath.

Lixia is almost unconditionally indulgent to Rien, and as long as Rien likes it, she will not object. Just like now Emma's face was flushed from the strange stares, only Lixia gently shook her hand and cheered her on. By the way, Lixia, who was dragged by Li En to upgrade her weapon, is currently in a state of using qigong to increase her height and disguise, even if Eliya is in person, she may not be able to recognize it, let alone someone else?

Yaniras's heart is natural and innocent, this undercurrent hidden under the table, she can't feel it at all, she is leaning her face to Emma's hand and shouting, "What about me, what about me? It's not stained, and if it gets it, help me wipe it off. ”

╮(╯▽╰)╭——by the rest.

was interrupted by Yanira like this, and the undercurrent of inadvertent fluctuations calmed down - pistachio Yaniras have such charm, maybe some people don't like her character, but no one will hate her.

The topic continues –

"Lane, I don't understand what you just said, let me elaborate."

As the eldest lady of the arms manufacturing industry, Alyssa has an extraordinary sensitivity to weapons, and others are also interested in her mention.

"Idle is idle, so I'll expose some inside information to you." Li En said and turned off the guide terminal, "Alyssa, have you carefully looked at the photos of the god machine?" Do you see what's wrong? ”

Alyssa thought for a moment and said, "It does feel a little out of place. Leaving aside the white divine machine with strange abilities, the structure of the blue and purple divine machine is too strange. The blue god machine, which is heavier than "Giant" and has a large volume, can still be supported by both feet like ordinary mecha soldiers, and normally speaking, it should be difficult for the blue god machine to even keep standing. The purple god machine is the same, obviously it has the same volume as the blue god machine, and the thrusters have not increased significantly, but it has a high speed that exceeds the speed of sound, and it can be deformed, so won't the skeleton be unbearable? ”

"Hehe, it's worthy of Alyssa, the analysis is in place." Li En smiled, "As you said, the divine machine is such a strange thing, and what is even more strange is that it does not have a guide engine installed in its body, and it can act all by relying on the power of the treasure." It is not so much that the coalition of empires and republics was wiped out by the Divine Machine, but by the Divine Machine, which is just a medium to exert the power of the Divine Treasure. For some reason, the power of that treasure can only cover the entire Crossbell, which means that the three divine machines cannot leave Crossbell for a long time, otherwise they will lose energy and will not be able to move an inch. Even if you want to make a move against the Empire, the most you can do is destroy the "Garelian Fortress", and it is almost impossible to advance further. ”

"I see." Alyssa couldn't stop nodding.

"Well, that's not going to work." Elliot took out the arcus in a panic, "I need to tell my dad and sister quickly and let them ......"

"Calm." Rien patted Elliot on the shoulder, "Your dad would have known about it for a long time, otherwise they wouldn't have made a symbolic tentative wave after Crossbell declared independence, and it would have ended here." As long as you don't take the initiative to provoke the gods, there will be nothing to do over there. ”

Hearing Lane say this, Elliot made up his mind: "You just said that you want to dismantle the magic machine?" ”

"yes, don't think things that hard. Although this thing is almost infinite energy under the blessing of the Arcana, it is immortal and indestructible, but-"

"Wait, wait a minute, why do you say that the more I think the magic machine is terrifying." Elliot shuddered.

"That's it, infinite energy, immortal and immortal? Are you sure you're not kidding? Alyssa felt like she didn't know the world at all, especially in the last few days. Behind "Lion Battle" there is the Riding God, and there are six other Arcana with the same root as the Riding God, the infinite energy that gets the power of the Arcana, the immortal weapon, and the successive things keep subverting the cognition of Alyssa and everyone.

"I'm not going to joke about that. There are advantages and disadvantages in everything, the divine machine is strong because of the arcana, and it is also because of the obvious weakness of relying too much on the arcana, and it is not difficult to break it if you grasp it well. A confident smile tugged at the corner of Lane's mouth, "I think it's a little more difficult to beat Chloe in comparison. ”

"Anyway, if you're sure, I'm sure you won't joke with your life." Sarah, who had not spoken, said, "Hearing you say that, it won't be long before Crossbell returns to the way he was, the problem is that after that—"

"What happens after that?" The Philippines does not understand politics, so it cannot understand the chain reaction that will be derived from this independence incident.

"After that," Sarah rolled her eyes, catching a glimpse of someone's eager expression, and pushed the boat down the river, "Macias, you say." ”

"Yes, Instructor Sarah." Macchias cleared his throat and began his favorite analysis of current affairs, "The government's public announcements and actions are not children's nonsense. Since you have done it, you have to bear the corresponding consequences. Crossbell claimed independence and statehood, and relied on the power of the gods to destroy the coalition forces of the two suzerains, and in the past two months, he has repeatedly expressed his stance to provoke the empire and the republic, even if these things are really the dictatorship of Mayor Dita, it is not that Speaker Henry can write off the declaration of independence by saying that it is invalid. For the two suzerains, this is undoubtedly a rebellion of a bad nature, but the two countries are afraid of the divine opportunity, so they will not move. ”

"According to the consistent attitude of the Empire and the Republic towards Crossbell, once Crossbell loses the deterrent of the magic machine, I am afraid that the two countries will immediately send troops into Crossbell. It is difficult to say whether the next step will be to establish a coalition government to jointly administer the country or to redraw the borders, but in either case the name Crossbell Autonomous Region will disappear from the international community entirely. ”

"I don't want to, but I share the same opinion as this man." "By that time, there will be no buffer zone between the empire and the republic, and the situation in Krutchen will be ......."

"Ask ...... Questions"

The people who completely entered the mode of eating melons and the crowd needles (keyboard warriors salty and eating radishes and worrying lightly) did not notice Li En, who quietly left with a garbage bag.

After throwing the garbage bag into the trash can outside the teaching building, Li En did not return to the computer room as soon as possible, but sat on the bench next to the teaching building.

"Has it come to this? A little sooner than I expected... Fortunately, I made some preparations in advance. ”

A shadow appeared beside Li En, following him like a shadow: "Li En." ”

Li En was not surprised, patted the empty seat beside him, and called softly, "Lixia, you really came with you." ”

Because I haven't taken my eyes off you. Lixia didn't say it, but Rien understood, always understood.

"Lane, I know you're distressed by what happened to Crossbell, but I don't know what to do to lighten your burden, so I can only be by your side like this."

"Fool, that's enough." Rien gently shook Lixia's hand, "As long as you are by my side, I can solve any trouble, no matter how difficult the situation is, I can overcome it - this time is the same." ”

"Lane, tell me what you think, I'd like to hear it."

"Macchias is actually right, the state of semi-autonomy that the autonomous state that the autonomous state has struggled to maintain is coming to an end, because of Dita. However, Macchias only said the superficial reason, and the real reason lies in the two words 'profit'. Kezhou is rich, very rich, the empire and the republic have been staring at this piece of fat for a long time, and everyone wants to eat it in their stomachs, but because of the mutual containment of the two sides and the constraints of the autonomous prefecture treaty, the two countries have no way to use force to directly annex it. But this time it was different, and Dieta's behavior undoubtedly gave the two countries an excuse to do it directly. Unless the church or the association is determined to stop it, no force can keep the state. ”

"Is there really nothing you can do?" Because of the existence of the Rainbow Theater, Lixia has a lot of feelings for Kezhou, and she doesn't want that.

"Unfortunately, no." Lane shook his head with a wry smile.

"You can't do it either?" Lixia's eyes were full of hope.

"Fool, you think too highly of your man." Rien rubbed Lixia's forehead.

Lixia nodded heavily, convinced of it from the moment he had rescued her from the darkness and guided her to find her "silver".

"You." Li En took Lixia into his arms in distress, "Well, since you believe in your man so much, I will let it go." Don't fight for the credit of saving the country this time, but also let the people of Kezhou suffer less. ”

"Rien—" Lixia's voice was soft, her pretty face pressed against Rien's chest.

"Lixia..."

Sentimental.

PS: A bunch of single dogs at the University of Technology were hit by tons.

PS2: Although Emma is admitted on a scholarship, she doesn't believe that "The Witch's Family", which is hidden behind history, will be short of money. Judging from the details revealed in the game, Emma raised Faye and Miriam like a daughter, buying books and food and buying milk for Serenu at every turn, and she didn't feel distressed, so it can be seen that she is really not bad for money.

ps3: Senior Kelian is really short of money, and he usually works several jobs to earn tuition and living expenses. (To be continued.) )
