Chapter 379 Accompanying Guards
A few days have passed, and the main base, which symbolizes the power of the Kamen Army, has basically been restored, and it will take months to change such a project into an ordinary engineering team in the other world, and the number of hundreds of steps alone is enough to be busy, not to mention the jade and white stone pillars with carved beams and paintings, not to mention the dexterous and unique pavilions, not to mention the solemn and majestic auditorium spire and the magnificent mural workmanship.
The entire project is generally focused on the restoration of the central council hall and the restoration of military equipment, in conjunction with the highest priority magic craftsmanship unique to the Kamen Legion. The whole construction period is a week, but the walls and houses of the base have begun to take shape, and it is clear that a large number of dead and injured people were infringed on by an unknown force a week ago, and the ruins and ruins of the walls are all crumbling, which may be the reward for following Shinto.
The fact that the repairs are basically complete does not mean anything, because the two lieutenant generals Dante and Lampelgui, who are temporarily acting, also have the personnel loss comforted, redeployed and the backlog of incidents handled. As the most powerful police organization in the Otherworld, this organization not only maintains law and order in the vicinity, not only accepts land slaying dispatches, but also participates in the internal affairs of each kingdom, as well as all cases from industry, commerce, agriculture and even light magic manufacturing.
If an organization with a high relationship wants to avoid a crisis, it is not only the two things of saving lives and rebuilding after the disaster, but their own responsibilities are also their biggest stumbling block now. Lieutenant General Dante, who upholds fairness and justice and saves the lost lambs, is not only a masked warrior with strong strategic skills, but also a commander with a full sense of duty, although he is old and shallow compared to the entire army, but he must be there during the absence of Lieutenant General Vaux and the disappearance of Admiral Kenneth.
In fact, it is Zach who has the same sense of mission as Dante, they have both lost their most important boss or senior in the chaos, and they only realize the weight of the matter after they return to their hometown, and this powerlessness and urgent need to remedy the situation makes these two young people of almost the same age suddenly silent and old.
The afternoon sun is quite nice, and the gates of the army base are being finalized, forged from real silver metal provided by the Black Iron Dwarves, and only a small part of the gates involve non-metal. Peel off any of the rest and turn it into a sharpened but priceless knife. This gate has not even been impacted or destroyed since the Wraith War, however, this time, the gate that sheltered all the masks was shattered into countless pieces due to a powerful unknown force.
Lampelgui was in charge of overseeing the gates, and he stood in a sunny position, and the glittering gold of the gate in front of him forced him to avoid the majesty of the Light. Even the defenders of the city were terrified by the magic and material power of the gate itself, and what kind of power could destroy the gate? Lampelgui looked at the untreated pieces of metal that had been temporarily piled up on the other side, the same metal as the gate, but because it had been discarded, it no longer charged the magic above it, and there was no golden light to be seen, even the workers who walked through it didn't think it was a big deal. Lampelgui felt a little sad, no matter how powerful. No matter how untouchable. This door and anything in the world. Even human beings themselves, once they lose their meaning, the brilliance of life will be stripped away, and eventually it will be completely ignorant of the so-called miscellaneous things. Abandoned in the distant depths of the mountains.
Thinking of this, he shook his head, surprised to find that a group of Dharma Masks, who were busy manipulating the location of the gate, looked back at him, and they stopped what they were doing. It turned out that although the gate could be placed with magical telekinesis, it was Lampelgui who was in charge of correcting it himself. Seeing the dissatisfied shaking of his head, he no longer dared to do what he thought, he was waiting for instructions, but he didn't know that Lampelgui had no opinion.
"I'm sorry, guys. You go on. Just embed it at this angle. Lampelgui made a gesture of slashing the back of his hand with a knife, which is a common form of dialogue for the masked in charge of engineering manufacturing, and this interpretation can probably complete the whole thing, and when it is over, the big stone basically falls. Looking at the glittering golden gate, the yellow skin on the faces of the masked soldiers who were on night duty finally smiled. Maybe this gate is still the best guarantee for them, even if this thing has turned into scrap metal not long ago, but the belief from the Kamen Warriors is what it is, and it is the rule that needs to be achieved by this.
Stretching his muscles, Lampelji instructed the subordinates serving beside him: "Hurry up and clean up this piece when you're done, and then you don't have to follow, just go about your business." He waved his hand and said to the major general. The other party is none other than Yun Ci, who was once subordinate to Dante, and this time he was forced to be sent by his former direct boss to supply Lampelgui, and when this person was panicking, no one would allow an officer of the general rank to have an accident, and it was also necessary to send additional guards.
Yun Ci bowed slightly, and very quickly assigned some necessary explanations to the lower levels, and at the same time, his vigilant eyes observed Lieutenant General Lampelji from time to time, seeing that the other party was getting farther and farther away from him, Yun Ci said a few words anxiously, and ended the work here. The young major general was only in his early twenties, the same age as Virgil during the Wraith War, but he knew more about the situation than Virgil at that time, and after coming into contact with the dark organization of the upper echelons of Kamen, he was even more convinced that there were people within Kamen who were not good for the members who tried to oppose him.
Half a minute later, Yun Ci caught up with Lieutenant General Lampelji who was walking alone in the aisle, at first Lieutenant General didn't care, but until the residential mansion this guy followed, which made Lampelji himself very unhappy. As if angry, as if mockingly, he turned his head and said, "What can be guaranteed by following closely?" Can you do something that the entire security network can't do when the whole base is not safe? ”
This reprimand makes sense, after all, if the kind of enemy who breaks through the base appears, Yun Ci may not be able to protect it. However, what if Yun Ci's guess was correct, that is, this raid came from the inner ghost of the mask? Then it is certain that the security network cannot work, so at this time, Yun Ci can play a role in his own ability, but how can this speculation be said to a lieutenant general like his boss?
Think about it, assuming that the disturbance is caused by some villain in the upper echelons of the mask, then Lampelge, who is closer to the upper echelons than Yun Ci, cannot be the object of good discussion, in short, if Lampelgui is the darkness of the upper echelons or he is a faction behind the trouble, then it is stupid to collude with the same discussion, and if Yun Ci follows this guy, if he is a good person, he can implement protection; If it is an enemy, surveillance can be implemented. Thinking about it carefully, it is clear that everyone is a masked superior, and they should all be victims of the raid, but they have to guard against each other, and the atmosphere that pervades the entire army base at this moment is mutual distrust and mutual suspicion, thinking that maybe Lieutenant General Lampelji will also be suspicious of Yun Ci's existence, and suspicious of this major general who always follows him.
This sadness made Yun Ci unable to speak properly, so he could only stammer: "I came to protect your excellency because of the edict of Lieutenant General Dante, whether you need it or not, whether it is useful or not, please don't mind, please use me as a pawn." "That's right, the masquerade is like this, the lower part must do everything to help the superiors, and if it comes to delay, it will definitely be abandoned, and this is also for the sake of faith.
"Whatever you want, you can stand wherever you like." Lampelgui gave up on convincing the Kamen Warriors, after all, as a person who had come before, he knew the beliefs of the Kamen Warriors, and that was the mind that could say that he would do it when he died. So the lieutenant general, who turned to leave, opened the mansion and did not welcome it, but closed the door and let the major general stand outside the door.
Yun Ci, who was left out, breathed a sigh of relief, seeing the magnificent wooden material of the gate, which made people suddenly feel pure all around. It was still early, and Yun Ci was going to patrol the neighborhood before turning back and continuing to keep an eye on the place, scanning the front and back doors for the lieutenant general from time to time, which was also a good way to guard against the unknown.
Lampelgui's private mansion is one of the three largest residences of the base, the other two belong to Admiral Kenneth and Lieutenant General Dante respectively, and Lieutenant General Vaux, as the residence of the first lieutenant general, is outside the base, belonging to the exclusive bunker near the fortress, and the castle belonging to the first lieutenant general is also a guarantee that the base can show a cornering momentum.
All of them have built a powerful magical barrier on top of the original outer walls, the essence of which is to prevent entry without blocking exit, preventing spiritual power but not blocking the void (all physical movement or potential energy that does not contain the spirit child component). The main gate and side doors, or the underground passage of some of the mansions, are all the breaches, but the breaches themselves are defended by using all the levels of the mansion.
Originally, it was a fuss, but since Lord Kenneth was no longer there, Lieutenant General Dante decided to move the residence to Lord Kenneth's mansion, where meetings and life took place at the same time, and Dante had completely become a tightly sealed mansion. Because of this, Dante's guards didn't have to worry at all, and the assignment of Major General to Lampelgui was a must.
Yun Ci, who turned around, was about to leave to walk around, but just as he was about to move, a small crack opened in the door behind him, and a butler belonging to Lampelji was revealed inside the door. It was an old man in his fifties, and he must have been the hunchbacked old man who was also a comprador. Yun Ci was not familiar with Lampelgui's family configuration, but even the market towns outside the fortress knew this loyal and capable old man, although the old man was sometimes a heavy drinker, he was definitely a competent housekeeper.
"Mr. Major General" The old man's majestic expression did not match his hunched appearance, but he still stopped Yun Ci. "The young master wants to buy fine wine outside the city, and the old man has to take care of the kitchen and bathroom (the common name of the chef for masks) when he changes hands, and he really can't run away, I don't know if he can do it for him."
Yun Ci thought that this must be part of the task, but he did not shirk, and simply asked the old man about the needs of Lieutenant General Lampelge, took the gold coin handed by the other party and turned to leave. The sound of the door closing immediately sounded behind him, and the unnatural ping-pong sound became so strange in the afternoon, but Yun Ci didn't mind.
