007 Signs of War

"Captain, this ......"

"It's so rampant, who does she think she is......"

"New to our six-team ......"

"Come as you want, go as you want, think we're where the Wings of Freedom are......"

"If she goes out and talks nonsense, will it be ...... to our guild?"

"That's it! Don't be noisy! ”

Seeing the girl walk away so freely, some of the remaining people sitting there were boiling, some people said that the girl who had only been here for a few days and walked away on her own was too ignorant of the rules, and some people thought that a newcomer who left so casually would not be inappropriate, and if she went out and said some bad things, would it have a bad impact on the reputation of the guild. The captain of the www.biquge.info of the pen and the fun pavilion should be a rather dignified leader, and a few words calmed down the excitement of the group. He looked at the others who hadn't commented, and didn't say anything moreβ€”they were all members of the team who usually had a good relationship with the lively girl. Their current silence is undoubtedly the issue that should be paid attention to at the moment.

"Wuji, I know your difficulties, but it's not that you don't know her character. Isn't it good now......" The silence lasted for a while, and the person sitting next to the captain slowly spoke, probably a military advisor or something like that in the team.

β€œ...... Anyway. After a long time, the captain known as Wuji exhaled: "Such people are everywhere, and such situations happen every day...... You and I haven't seen any big scenes, and you don't have to change anything for the sake of a newcomer. ”

"I know you may be resentful." The captain looked at the silent subordinates and said slowly: "If you think it is inappropriate or problematic, even if you report it to the president in the future, I still have to say ......" He paused and looked around at his teammates: "The current arrangement is to maximize everyone's interests and ...... Don't disrupt our plans. ”

The silence lasted for a moment, and everyone nodded.

"Ah Long Ah Hu, these three pieces of equipment are still for you today, you can discuss it yourself, and look forward to your performance." The captain reiterated his decision, then turned to the others: "The plan remains the same. Brother Xiong, it's up to you to arrange this. He said to the person sitting next to him, "I'm still bothering you."

The man known as Brother Bear nodded yes, and then said in a low voice: "I heard that there is news from the guild headquarters, and it seems that the upper echelons of the empire are talking about whether to go to war......

"Of course I've heard that." The captain waved his hand: "The chairman is paying close attention to the movements of the military department, after all, we still have some relationship between us, and it is more convenient to ask." The news has not yet been determined, and even if it does, it remains to be studied whether it will be beneficial to us......"

"Yes, after all, we are now in the territory of the principality, and if the war burns here, I don't know if it will ......"

"No, it's so far away...... captain shook his head: "Let's do our thing with peace of mind, let those bigwigs in the empire continue to discuss, maybe when we get it, they haven't finished discussing it yet......"

"That's what I said......"

The people at the table fell into silence and thought again, and Brother Xiong frowned again: "Tonight's incident is still not good for that girl after all, I wonder if I should go to her and persuade her......"

"Persuade a hairy ...... Forget it, you can go if you want, I don't care. The captain replied impatiently: "Anyway, today's decision...... It won't change. ”

"Future plans, business as usual."

***************

"Plans for the future...... There is no need to change it for the time being. ”

The capital of the Frey Empire, Redcar.

The Random Tavern, the same dark night, was still a round table, but it was a round table in the middle of a room inside the tavern. A bustling imperial capital, top-notch tavern services are readily available, and few are qualified to peek into the full picture of this place for weak players. But basic private rooms can still be booked, large and small, with all kinds of free era furnishings, so that players or residents of the Free Continent can enjoy wine and other services in peace, while talking about public and private matters to their heart's content, without fear of being heard.

At this moment, several people dressed as players sat around the round table, as if discussing things. Judging by the equipment on their bodies, they are all characters at the top of the player's ranks. One of them, dressed in silver armor with two silver swords hanging from either side of his waist, was sitting in the middle seat. The two mustaches swayed in the air with his words, and with his serious look, he had the temperament of a superior.

The current president of the Wings of Liberty Guild, Fly Freely.

β€œ...... That's the kind of thing that's our primary goal at the moment. We have now figured out the approximate location, the people of Team 6 have already inquired about some news, and now they are organizing personnel to make detailed arrangements, even if the war happens, it will not affect these for the time being. ”

He rested his elbows on the round table and slowly lowered his head: "And, if possible, we may be able to ...... in war"

"The most important thing now is what the emperor and those ministers think, and whether they will agree...... War. A male player sitting next to him, dressed in a white robe, wearing a monocle in his left eye, and holding a book-like object in his hand. He put his hand on his glasses and spoke word by word, but there was some worry in his voice at this time: "In my personal opinion, I still want to ...... Don't go to war. ”

"Don't be intimidated, our military advisor! Fighting a war is a lot of fun! Another man in black iron armor said. His hairstyle is a hedgehog head flying into the sky, a big sword behind his back, and his voice is surprisingly loud: "Men should be on the battlefield!" If you don't go to the battlefield to rush and kill, how can you reflect the romance and strength of men like me, hahahaha......"

"Don't make a noise, iron plate!" A woman sitting next to him shouted, tapping the table in front of him. Although her appearance is not stunning, her big eyes are still very attractive. And she has long fiery red hair, although she is wearing a suit of armor, but the light style designed for women highlights her bewitching figure while protecting some key parts. The iron man's ID was clearly written "half a box of cigarettes", but the woman called him an iron plate, probably deliberately nicknamed him: "Don't associate a battle maniac like you with us, okay, if you want to die, you ...... yourself"

"Hey, you don't understand the joy of fighting at all, so women ......"

"You-say-what--?" said the woman, gritting her teeth, looking like she was about to go crazy.

"Okay, okay, don't make any noise." Freedom Wings saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly took action to stabilize the situation: "The war will not happen because of your and my wishes, it is better to wait for the latest news first, after all, Bing'er and they are already on the way, and it is not good to let them come back." He sat down and exhaled, "Let's take a look first, and wait for the bird's reply......"

As the capital of the Frey Empire, Redkar is naturally extremely prosperous, and even at night, the light of the lights still illuminates this centuries-old city as if it were day. Illuminated by all kinds of magical lights, there are people enjoying the nightlife, bars, banquets, jousting arenas, playgrounds, and all kinds of entertainment activities, which can dazzle every country newcomer who has just arrived here. However, on the night of March 25, 795 in the new calendar, there was no scene of singing and dancing in the imperial palace of the empire, and the kings and ministers rejoiced together.

The white window lattices, the golden walls, and the extravagant palace gates are lined with two majestic statues, which are said to be the statues of the two generals beside the founding emperor, Queen Frey, who stand on both sides of the palace gate to show their share of the glory and disgrace of the empire.

Statues like this can be seen in the palace entourage, illuminated by bright yellow magic lamps, and surrounded by statues that look like soldiers and officers. They are arranged symmetrically on either side of the red carpet in the center, and at the end of the carpet extension, the large chairs of the imperial monarch are placed on a black platform, which extends in all directions, gradually lowering as the steps spread, then forming a larger platform, which then extends again and again...... Each platform is surrounded by a number of fixed seats, and as the area of the platform increases, the number of those mounts naturally increases. Since it was night, the magic lights illuminated the area around the seemingly ordinary high platform, as if it had been gilded with a layer of gold. At this time, in addition to the emperor's seat, there were still several people sitting on the top platform.

The seats were of excellent quality, and the one closest to the throne was made of an ore excavated from the remnants of the Age of Magic, perhaps these stones were used to store magic at the time, but after hundreds of years they had lost their usefulness, and instead became a kind of black jade-like rough stone. The black and bright colors are particularly solemn in this vast space and the height of the heart.

And now the person sitting on it seems to be a little restless.

"The Smith division of the intelligence service has returned. After confirmation, the information he brought back was highly reliable. Gentlemen, what are you waiting for, this is the best chance......"

"No, no, no, Minister Susas, there is a loophole in our arrangements for defending the fortress southwest of the border, you might call it discovery, and it may have been discovered on the Duchy's side......"

"So what? As long as it's possible, we have a reason. As for the ability...... Do you think that our army has not defeated the ragtag armies of the loose alliance, Prime Minister Caldera? ”

"As long as we don't have the right reason, we will be subject to a joint rebellion from your so-called motley army, honorable Mr. Minister." With the swing of gray hair, the old prime minister in a noble dress slowly shook his head, and continued to respond to the opponent's attack without humility or arrogance: "We know the characteristics of those miscellaneous armies very well, I think...... You should know that too", the old man said unhurriedly, "and there is a rebellion going on in the north of the empire......"

"You should be able to tell the difference, Prime Minister." At this moment, another voice came from the other side of the Prime Minister, and it was the voice of Marshal Red, the supreme commander representing the Imperial Military Department.

"Those rebellions can be solved with only a slightly capable general under my command and some heroic soldiers......" The marshal is old, so his beard has turned gray, but he is wearing the general uniform of the imperial army, and the momentum of the general's slaughter with a black background is completely demonstrated. His voice was low, but his authority did not diminish in the slightest: "However, if the information is confirmed to be true, it is really necessary for us to use our strength...... Express our will. ”

The prime minister bowed his head, his old face hidden in the shadows, as if he didn't want to argue with them anymore, and seemed to be thinking about the appropriate response. But the silence lasted only a few seconds, and another flirtatious voice interjected.

"Sorry to disturb you...... Uh, arguments. But I have to remind that there are a lot of people who want to ...... Get war. ”

It was a young man sitting in a seat in the corner, he was noticeably much younger than the others on the same platform, and his status was even more out of place compared to those presentβ€”he was the deputy minister of the Ministry of People's Livelihood of the Empire, or the deputy minister in charge of water conservancy.

But his name is Simon, so he sits here.

The long black hair was scattered all around, showing off his slightly sickly face even fairer, wearing a black tuxedo, the white gloves belonging to the nobility were taken off by him at will, and then grabbed them in his hands and shook them gently: "Around us, around Redcar, around the Empire, and ...... Some people in the principality want war. ”

"Oh, I'm not trying to make my judgment on the subject, guys. I just want to remind you that whatever your final decision is, please don't forget those people. ”

"Those people that my men have found out, those who ...... People who want to be restored. ”

This time the silence lasted longer, and even Susas, who had been insisting at the beginning, did not speak again, and another contemptuous voice sounded in the dull air around him.

"That's why I've always wanted to say...... You and your subordinates are alarmists! ”

Everyone looked in the direction in which he said this, and there sat an obese figure. Consistent with his bloated stature, he was the Empire's Minister of Finance, Field Pamuel.

"I've always been suspicious, those things you said! You ......" seemed to realize that the occasion was not suitable for saying some words, and the slightly sharp-pitched voice because of obesity paused, and then continued: "It is not a bad thing to hope for war, and as the Minister of Finance of the Empire, I think I am the most competent person to say this, because I know that our country is very rich and very ...... Able to fight. ”

"Even if the so-called main battle faction in the empire is expecting, what can they do? We have the ability, we have the reason, we have the benefits...... Aren't that enough? Those young people want to make a contribution, then let them go, anyway, we have military funds for them to go; If the hillbillies of those principalities want to fight us, then let them come, I have long seen that they are not pleasing to the eye; As for the other people you call ......"

The fat man's voice stopped, then abruptly amplified.

"It's all your lies! Your rumors! Yours...... What you made up, what you imagined...... Illusion! ”

It seemed to take a lot of force from the fat man to wave his arms, and he squeezed into the solid black chair, relaxed himself, and began to gasp slightly. The fair-skinned young man kept smiling in the face of his criticism, for he was confident that the fat man's remarks would not be heeded by anyone else.

At this moment, the figure on the highest throne finally spoke.

"Pamuel, please calm down."

The voice was not loud, but it was full of majesty, just like the image of the middle-aged man in the seat, his beard was spread out, like a lion, but it was hard to imagine that the white beard appeared in the body of an emperor in his forties and fifties, in the prime of life.

Drenier Frey Cardreft, the current emperor of the Frey Empire, he was dressed in a golden-red imperial dress that matched his identity, and he was holding a black gentleman's staff in one hand, and his seemingly casual expression hid sharp eyes, sweeping everyone present from time to time, and after the attack of the Minister of Finance, the majestic emperor made everyone who still wanted to speak shut up with a word. Because they know that tonight's decision is coming.

"Continue to investigate the authenticity of that incident, the crossing of the border in the garrison fortress......" The Emperor pondered for a moment before speaking: "Continue to the old Horsman stubborn...... Put pressure on him to give an account. As for the restorationists......" he sneered twice: "Just let them jump a few times, I want to see how far they can go." ”

"As for the discussion of sending troops, it will be handed over to the ministers tomorrow...... Together. ”

**************

It was late at night, and the news from the palace came out, and several people in the tavern were relieved.

"Finally, I still haven't started fighting, I'm relieved." The woman with the ID name Nan Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "This way our goal should not be affected......"

"You can finally let go of your worries here, but don't be too happy, our old adversaries have probably heard the wind too, and they seem to have made some moves recently......," the one-eyed military advisor then poured cold water on him and said to everyone.

"Hmph, Jianghu ......" Freedom Fly sneered and sneered: "Since the incident with Tania...... Sooner or later, let them suffer a little......"

The man, who was called the iron plate, secretly stuck out his tongue on the side. Every time the guild leader he knew made such a sneer, it was a sign of his lack of self-confidence, after all, it was also the first guild of the alliance that had suppressed them for a long time......

"By the way, I don't know if you've heard of it, that person is online today......"

Thinking of his old enemy, a rumor suddenly flashed through his mind. When I heard the news at that time, I subconsciously didn't believe it, so I just took it as a gossip and listened to it, but now that I think about it, I said it casually.

"Who......"

"Who understands what you say......

Everyone's confused response seemed to give the iron plate some comfort, and he laughed and said: "Sure enough, it's a rumor, it's a rumor, I said at the time, how is it possible, hahahaha...... Uh, what's wrong with you guys......"

The man's voice gradually became quieter, as the other people seemed to think of something from his question, and their expressions became strange. Flying freely was stunned for a moment, and then gradually became solemn.

"You mean...... ...... that person? ”

"That ...... three years ago"

There was a bit of solemnity in the air, as if they had a heart, and several people did not say their answers. They looked at each other, and they both saw a hint of luck in each other's eyes, and a sense of tension like a great enemy.

"Hey, have you heard about it too......" The man opened his mouth, and his voice was no longer bold: "Is it really ......?"

Everyone didn't speak, the atmosphere became more and more gloomy, and the woman shook her head as if she wanted to shake off these unpleasant feelings: "It must be a rumor......" and walked out of the room.

"Hey, gardenia, where are you going, wait for me to ......" Iron Plate chased out as if he had done something wrong, and his voice became farther and farther away. Single-eyed sat down on the spot with a frown, and whispered, "If it's true......."

"Find some people to put this thing out and see how the masses react, by the way...... Test it too. ”

After making some explanations to a certain subordinate, he flew freely to the window, looked at the bustling capital in the night, and thought about the guild's plan and the sudden rumors, and his heart was chaotic for a while. In the end, he just looked up, looked at the bright starry sky that did not exist in reality, sighed and shook his head.

"He's back...... Is it? He muttered to himself, "That legend ......"
