Chapter 24: The Undercurrent Before the Celebration (Part II)

A trace of unease rose inexplicably in Constance Dante's heart. "I don't want to see anyone but Sophia." A hint of coldness crossed Consit's eyes.

"Don't jump to conclusions, they really want to meet the heroes of yesteryear." Preskars said with a smile on his face. "Besides, your Sophia needs to take her out to touch this colorful world, doesn't she?" "Let's get Sophia involved." Constance Dante suddenly became furious, clenching his fists tightly.

But Preskars ignored Constantine's threat and shrugged: "It doesn't seem like it, I just promised her a normal life." Isn't it true that normal girls should enjoy the beauty of being young to the fullest? And it's impossible for her life to be so peaceful, even you probably won't believe it! ”

"As I said, if anyone wants to hurt her, I will make him regret living in this world." The boy's eyes were full of substantial tyranny. Pliskas smiled indifferently, patted Constance Dante on the shoulder and whispered in his ear: "It's not enough to just talk ruthlessly, use your killing to tell the dirt of this world, stay away from the people you love." If it doesn't, it will ruin this rotten old order. Let them live in fear. ”

"[Hannibal] was lost by you. But fortunately, it was only a prototype machine, and no one knew about its existence. But in the hands of that group of people, it's really nerve-wracking. The man dressed as an aristocrat with a cane waved his hand and said. Noel in front of him looked very uneasy, he knew that it was terrible to make a deal with these people, but at that time, in order to protect Ann Lost, he still chose to trade with them.

"But then again, the mechs you brought with you are good material. Your Majesty will reward you. In this way, we are a little closer to the military headquarters. The man said with a smile.

Noel's heart suddenly tightened, and he hurriedly said: "Please don't tell Your Majesty about this matter, otherwise Her Royal Highness the Princess..."

"Tsk," the man's voice suddenly froze, and the cane in his hand slammed into his face. "Herodite remember your place. Your Royal Highness, you don't even have the qualifications to look up. ”

This blow was so hard that Noel was knocked to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. His mouth was torn, and his face was instantly red and swollen, and a sharp pain came, and Noel felt that his nose was also warm, only to see drops of blood falling, and even the bridge of his nose was broken.

"Don't think that becoming a knight can change your status as an inferior person, but many Herodians died on this road back then, and you are at best one of the lucky survivors of cannon fodder. If you were like those crazy people in the military department, you wouldn't even have scum left. The man's feet were trampled on Noel's body, trampling on it at will, "So you know your duty, you know?" ”

"It's... Ahem. ”

", you've polluted the air here. I don't think you'll ever appear at Kingdom Festivals again. The man didn't bother to look at Noel again, and left on his own, not caring about the tiger's eyes behind him.

"Ah, has the strength of the Herod been restored to this point?"

In the huge military factory, three huge mecha stand silently, like pillars supporting heaven and earth. This underground place in the middle of the mountains is like a tomb for the devil of hell.

I can't imagine that in addition to the military department, the New Brad Kingdom also has an institution for the development of mechas.

"With this, that guy named Preskars will be of little or less use! I've had enough of that man's face. ”

Standing in front of the huge [God King Caesar], Clenrull muttered, "Herod, it's just a dying struggle. In the new era, the fate of Rome is firmly in our hands! ”・・・・・・

On the island of Crete, far from Constantinople, it was nominally part of the Kingdom of Neobullard after the fall of the New Roman Empire, but was in fact a fief of the Knights Hospitaller.

This peaceful land has no sign that the level has been baptized by war. Instead, there is a sense of prosperity. Fishermen go out to fish, while children frolic on the beach.

Everything here remains the way it was, with no steam machinery roaring and no ugly human hearts.

But this so-called peace will eventually be broken.

A roar never heard before the islanders, and the giant steel beast seemed to have come from prehistoric times. The waves were split, setting off white flowers tens of meters high. The inhabitants had never seen this thing. In front of it, the huge sailing ship looked like a leaf.

Unbeknownst to them, it was the Hydra, the steel-armored ship of the Papal States, and the age of steel machinery had long since come, and everywhere he went fell apart. Just as this ancient island can only be washed away in the face of the torrent of the times.

"Well, how did you get here first? Do you still expect to find the 'Cretan Bull' here? The young nobleman said frivolously, "As far as the eye can see, it is all poor and remote, and it is far from the city of Rome." ”

"Compared with **, I'm afraid this so-called East is nothing more than that." The noble prince laughed, in his eyes, the so-called land of New Rome flowing with honey is just a joke, and the wealth of the city of Rome or the city of Genoa, which controls the world's finances, is far more interesting than this ancient land.

"Your family is not here for you to enjoy, Lord Frederick." Sitting opposite the noble prince was a calm nobleman, and in comparison, this man had a kind of noble spirit and coercion.

Frederick pursed his lips, but he had to admire the man in front of him, since he was chosen by the Orsini family, the oldest family in Rome, to be the envoy to the East, then he would never be a mediocre person, of course he was not as pompous as he appeared.

For example, the Doria family of Genoa, the Medici family of Filene, the Hohenstaufen family of Sicily, and the Patician family of Venice, although nominally subordinate to the Holy See, were in fact intrigued, and even the various families of Rome were actually on the same page.

And he has to observe these people in secret to get the best out of his family.

"Arthur-kun, aren't you curious about this at all?" Frederick asked deliberately.

But the other party was really not interested, looked at the scenery on Crete Island outside the window, and said, "This is the personal warship of the Patik family, and docking here may be the private affairs of the Patik family." And why bother to find out? ”
