On the afternoon of May 30, the Southern Theater Command held a commendation meeting for meritorious service recipients in the "May Siege and Annihilation Campaign," which was attended by nearly 100 meritorious servicemen and their families and all members of the friendly military observer group.

At the meeting, Her Royal Highness Elizabeth, commander of the Southern Theater of Operations, summed up the battle, read out the list of meritorious servicemen, and wore meritorious service medals for each meritorious serviceman.

Her Royal Highness Elizabeth pointed out at the congress that the "May Siege and Annihilation Battle" was a great battle of national strategic significance, which strengthened the confidence of the compatriots in victory, promoted the unity of the whole country, and dealt a great blow to the arrogance of the enemy.

At the same time, Her Royal Highness Elizabeth stressed that we should be soberly aware that the enemy is cunning and cruel, and that they will not be willing to accept defeat, but will resort to other conspiracies to achieve their goal of encroaching on our land. The whole army should heighten vigilance and be ready for battle, so as not to give the enemy the slightest opportunity to take advantage of it.

??? Dividing line ???

On the day of the end of the campaign, friendly people who were still waiting for news at the Buckingham Palace received a notice that the relevant departments would organize a friendly military observation group to visit the front line.

On this day, the Magical Telecommunications Bureaus in each city completed their "equipment maintenance" and returned to use.

On the streets of Greentown, there was a slogan of "great victory on the front line, annihilating more than 200,000 enemies".

By the time the friendly military observer group assembled and rushed to the station, Greentown had turned into a sea of joy.

At this time, the battle report from the south was also transmitted to every magic communication bureau on the continent for the first time.

The latest news shocked the world, and those who are still lamenting the "death of Elizabeth" still think that they have not woken up.

The people on the mainland frantically inquired about every detail at this time, but the news they got was only a general battle report.

When the friendly military observer group arrived in Osmanthus City, their first project was to participate in the commendation meeting, where they saw Elizabeth who was still alive and well.

After the commendation meeting, the Southern Theater of Operations held a buffet dinner on a park lawn near the headquarters.

Charles was sitting at a table with Sister Wright and Carl and his wife, Marianne, discussing something.

Each person who has received the award can invite one or two relatives or friends to attend the commendation ceremony, and Charles's relatives here are Elizabeth, who is in charge of the award, and Charles, who has left Durian City to find his daughter.

At first, he wanted to find Amiya, but Amiya, who was busy transporting prisoners of war, couldn't find the time, so he gave the Wright sisters his place.

As it happened, Charles and Carl met at lunchtime before the awards.

While they were chatting about technical issues, Charles saw an acquaintance waving to him in the distance across the street.

Charles came up to Thomas, looked at him and the beautiful woman beside him with a wicked smile, and said, "Why are you here?"

Thomas asked rhetorically, "Why can't I be here?"

Charles raised an eyebrow, then looked at the beautiful woman next to him who was also looking at him curiously, and then said to Thomas, "Won't you introduce this one?"

Thomas also smiled wickedly this time and said, "Can you guess who he is?"

Charles rolled his eyes at him, then said to the beauty, "Excuse me, are you Cousin Layton?"

Layton Redkin didn't expect Charles to recognize her, and she asked curiously, "How did you recognize it as mine?"

Charles pretended to smile mysteriously and said nothing, so that he would not say that he had seen the list of friendly military observers from Elizabeth when he handed in his homework last night.

Layton looked at Thomas, who spread his hands and said he hadn't told Charles about it.

At this time, Charles asked, "Cousin Layton, how are your grandparents doing?"

"It's ok. Layton replied, "It's just that I've had too many things to worry about lately." ”

The three of them found a table and sat down, and then listened to Charles bragging there.

In fact, Charles said a little bit about when he didn't hang up, but in this part, others also sounded like they were bragging.

Suddenly, Charles jerked his head away and looked in the direction to his right.

For a split second, he felt someone snooping on him.

He saw a lady with short red hair and red eyes sitting a short distance to the right, smiling and raising her glass to greet him.

Charles nodded politely to her, then asked Thomas, "Who's that woman over there?"

The expression on Thomas's face suddenly became a little exciting, and he said, "She is Fujisaki Nicole, the ambassador of the Relic Kingdom to the Elven Court. ”

"Huh?" said Charles.

Thomas continued: "She is a descendant of the Travelers, and I listened to Ah ...... as a child I've heard people talk about that family. There are some people inquiring about you during this time, and she is one of them. ”

Charles nodded, it seemed that the traverser's family was doing well. He said, "She inquired about me, I'm afraid it's their king, Auston I of the kingdom of Relic who is now courting my sister Mira. ”

At this time, Layton said to Charles: "I heard grandma talk about this, and grandma and grandpa said that it is up to you and Mila to decide the matter of Mira. ”

Charles is currently on the sidelines on this matter, after all, his sister is still young now, and it is still too early to talk about marriage.

Linda's mother got married at the age of fourteen, gave birth to a child early, but was weak and sickly, and finally withered at an age when she should have ushered in a good time, which made Charles extremely disgusted by early marriage and early childbearing.

Charles felt that he didn't say well to Auston I directly about Mira's affairs, and it was easy to stiffen if he didn't do it, and it should be okay to convey it through Auston I's subordinates, and the person who could be the ambassador must be the king's henchman.

So he decided to write to the elders when he went back tonight, and that Mira's marriage would have to wait until she was at least eighteen years old.

After thinking about his sister, Charles set his sights on his cousin.

He asks Layton, "How did you meet Thomas?"

Layton's face flushed slightly, "I happened to hear him whispering your name that day, and when I asked, I realized that we were distant relatives." ”

Charles smiled, eager to ask his cousin how she heard Thomas muttering.

But the two of them only met for the first time today, and they can't quite feel their cousin's temper yet, so it's really hard to say some jokes.

He looked at Thomas and saw that the thing was there with a wry smile.

Seeing this, Charles digressed from the topic and shook out a huge harpoon more than two meters long from the storage ring.

He pointed to the harpoon and said to Layton, "This is the weapon of the enemy general I captured, please help me give it to my grandfather." ”

Layton looked at the harpoon stuck in the ground, which was taller than himself, and stood in front of him for a moment.

The surrounding members of the Military Observer Group were quickly attracted by the sudden appearance of the large harpoons, and watched and evaluated the harpoons.

Weapons are one of the important criteria for combat effectiveness, and many people at the scene began to discuss the combat effectiveness of the fishmen.

One of the guests stepped forward, crouched down and stroked the harpoon's head where it met the shaft.

Charles saw her feet exposed as she lifted the hem of her skirt before crouching, white jade feet and calves with almost pure white scales.

The scales on the legs and feet of Osmu's fish-men are different from hers, and they are blue-gray.

At this time, Charles had already recognized the other party, she was Melidi of the Truton Kingdom in the sea north of the river.

Melidi studied the harpoon, then stood up and smiled at Charles, before turning and walking back into the crowd.

Layton knew that his grandfather would love such gifts, and he was the old man who liked to collect all kinds of weapons and loot.

However, she still asked Charles a little worriedly: "You seized this?"

Charles nodded proudly.

Then Layton frowned again and asked, "Wouldn't that be dangerous?"

"It's okay. Charles replied, "But it was quite thrilling at the time." ”

Because he used a lot of plug-ins during that battle, he vaguely explained how to kill Eugene.

The surrounding crowd of onlookers pricked up their ears and listened carefully as Charles was telling the story.

Naturally, they will not believe what Charles says, and many contents need to be cross-corroborated before they are reported to the leadership.

But Charles habitually flooded too much, and these observers had a headache when analyzing intelligence.

After the dinner, which gave the friendly military observer mission the opportunity to engage with the front-line soldiers, Charles, Elizabeth and Thomas left together in a horse-drawn carriage.

Seeing the two masters and apprentices sitting across from him looking at him with a funny face, Thomas was a little uncomfortable.

Elizabeth, as an elder, said: "Layton Redkin is good, personality and other conditions are preferred. ”

Thomas had a bitter face, "Sister, you know the situation in my family......"

"Your family's situation is just right for the Redkin family. Elizabeth interrupted Thomas, "Even from a family point of view, Duke Redkin doesn't mind letting the youngest girl in the family leave a bloodline in the Rurik Kingdom. ”

Charles, who was on the side, also echoed and said: "I am still confident that I can convince my grandparents at this point, but when the big deal is that the two sides really fight, you two can go to the dragon's territory to live in seclusion." ”

When the apprentice finished speaking, the master continued: "Mikhail, you are something I grew up watching, and I can still say something to you. Now that you've met it, don't miss it, and don't be blinded by the unrealistic goals of the past. ”

Then Thomas – or rather Mikhail – decisively and skillfully opened the carriage door and jumped away.
