Chapter 1156: A Meeting with the Wrong Style
Chapter 1115
Let's rewind the clock for a few more minutes......
In the two godlies of the Bloodthirsty King, Daria and Shan Shen are finally crushed by the wheels of the new era. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ Surrounded by five new Federation Elicharl-class high-speed cruisers, the Moon White New Steering Battleship, which best represents the wheels of this new era, began to land slowly after reuniting with the Nanaurora. However, the valley below was particularly narrow, and it was difficult for these high-speed cruisers to squeeze in, let alone the white battleships of the first class. As a result, this small but superior Federation fleet could only hover above the river valley temporarily.
Then there was a very tense "military meeting".
"So, Master, in order to maintain the Federation's proper presence in the Holy Alliance, we must also send someone into that dungeon as soon as possible." The commander of the Federation Fleet who was called "squinting" by Lu Xi, and the best son of the younger generation of the Dandelion family, one of the largest wealthy families in the Federation, Deng Bolai? Brigadier General Dandy Lane said to Orucello in a consultative tone. He is the commander of the Federation fleet, and he is also the proud genius of the entire Federation gates, even for the leader of the faction, but at this time, you seem to have put yourself in the position of a staff officer, an adjutant, and even a secretary and a student.
However, no one present was surprised. In this theory, there is no longer any official position and military rank, just a "civilian person", at most just a "retired old cadre" Orucello? In front of Berencaster, all the high-ranking officials and dignitaries of the Federation are just "all living beings".
Of course, the attitude is respectful, but the meaning is very clear. Dandy Lane looked at the silent Orucello, and added: "At present, the people who have entered the ruins are all clergy of the Great Sanctuary and the Druid Order, however, both Neosfia and Oakland's armies are far from being able to catch up, and the Federation, as the first, and possibly the only human kingdom in the international community to arrive at the scene and participate in saving this world crisis, the international influence it brings is clear at a glance." The younger generation thought that such an action was necessary to maintain their military presence in Chenhai and to convince the nations of our legitimate annexation of Tatuga. β
In fact, the political forces that have already arrived at the scene include the Sea Clan and the Three Elf Clans, but they are only a small number of elites. What's more, the current era is already the era of mankind after all, and only every move of a human country with a large population and a vast territory is more secular and more "down-to-earth". As a member of the human state (at least the subject race is), all actions of the Federation should naturally be based on the national interest......
However, no one here is stupid, and he said it so explicitly, but it was also so frank that it was impossible to refute it.
"The enemies in the ruins are unlike what you've faced so far. Only the best of the best are qualified to participate in such an action. Oluxero held his sepiolite pipe, lit it slowly, took a deep breath, and said leisurely, "You know what I mean, right?" The young man of the Dandelion family. β
The implication is that the elite troops carefully selected by the Federation are nothing more than the elite troops of ordinary people after all. In front of the elites of the Great Sanctuary and the Druid Order, as well as in front of the bosses, they are just cannon fodder. If you take these cannon fodder to join the boss-level high-energy battlefield, it is likely that you will not be able to create any results, and in the end, you will give away your head in vain.
"But at least with behavior, then there is room to manipulate public opinion. As cruel as it sounds, isn't it a noble thing for a soldier to give his life for the good of his country? "Templeborne? Brigadier General Dandy Lane narrowed his eyes and said in a tone of course. He didn't even bother to pretend to remember this destined "great" sacrifice in any mournful tone, and he was still calm and impeccable.
Nanoka and Fett, who were on the side, exchanged a look covertly, and the former even showed an obviously indifferent expression. However, at this time, not only "civil society", but also not even members of the Union of Citizens and Learning, did not have any position to speak. As for the other friends on the Qiyao Aurora...... Well, they can't even get into the conference room. Of course, if Kalman shows his identity and attends the meeting as a member of the royal family of the Auckland Empire, even a squinting brother can't say anything, and he must respectfully call himself "His Highness" and call himself a "foreign minister". However, it is obvious that Lu Xi's little disciple is too well-behaved and has not yet learned how to use his identity and background.
"Young man, your mind sounds a little dangerous!" Orucello looked at each other faintly, and said lukewarmly: "It's not the same as your father and uncle. β
Dunboley? Dandy Lane smiled noncommittally, politely and elegantly, and no one could fault it in that performance. However, this may also represent a sense of alienation from business, as well as indifference and callousness in careful thinking, right?
"So, what do you think? Andrel? "Orucello is the head of the Marines and the second person in this fleet. Of course, compared to adding a hint of sarcasm to the squinting business, this time the tone seemed a lot more intimate, and it was obvious that they had known each other before.
ββ¦β¦ If we land with our troops, the casualties of ordinary soldiers will be very large, right? Standing on my side, with an illusory international influence, it will not be a pleasant experience to involve soldiers in mortal missions. Andrea sighed, her eyes fixed on her boss like sharp swords: "...... However, Your Excellency is also right in saying that soldiers do have a duty to sacrifice for their country. Then, we, the battle mages and elite soldiers of the alliance, enjoy the best offerings of the country, and naturally have the obligation to die before ordinary soldiers. β
In fact, all organizations have office politics, and unless it is some new organization that is on the rise at a high speed, and all employees are full of glory and dreams, the relationship between the first and second leaders is unlikely to be too good. What's more, the number one and the second in command belong to two distinct camps, except for the camp of directly slapping the table and beating each other...... In short, Miss Andrel's meaning is very clear, it is okay to land, but since you take it for granted that everyone makes a "great" sacrifice, why don't you set an example "great" first?
None of you were stupid, and you could understand the meaning of the atmosphere in secondsβa few weeks ago, they had worked together to strike a lightning bolt and take the city of Tatuga for the Federation. However, if you think about it carefully, with the current situation of the Federation, the Qing School and the Gate Valve Sect would be the norm if they were not torn apart. So, Nanoka and Fitt began to get excited, and this time they not only exchanged glances, but also exchanged thoughts with a psychic link.
"Oh, yes, yes, that's the current state of the Union? It's so clear at a glance! No wonder Lu Xi looked constipated when he talked about the Federation and the Alliance...... It's so much fun. β
"Politics is like this everywhere, but the Federation is more unsophisticated. After all, the founding of the People's Republic of China has only been a few hundred years old, and the politician-oriented 'magicians' cannot learn the pretense of the traditional nobles on the mainland. At that time, it can be imagined how tense the situation in their country has become. Fett said, "...... Nanorka, your expression of disdain is so obvious! Didn't the wind say that? Aren't you allowed to roll your eyes in public? β
"Lu Xi can't turn it over so much? I haven't seen Lu Xi in the wind pipe. Hmph, if these guys are not satisfied, they will challenge me with the root nature of a mage. However, I doubt that this group of noble princes and mages of the alliance have such blood, and they ......, "Well, just in terms of the strength of the spellcaster, this naturally black red fool is indeed qualified to despise almost all the magicians who are "from a professional background" and "noble family" in the Academic Alliance, including the elite boy brother who is very scheming and capable at a glance at the scene.
So, Nanoka continued to taunt the other party unscrupulously in her heart: "...... Even the enemy that Hurricane and Lu Xi find tricky, and letting this boy who has never seen the world lead the team will only delay him, right? Will you cry out on the spot? When I think about it, the more I think about it, the more I look forward to it! β
Fett couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly reversed the topic again: "I don't know what happened to Hurricane and Lu Xi, since just now, the interference of the psychic link has become more and more serious!" β
Saying this, Nanoka and Fitt couldn't help but sigh in their hearts at the same time, and they couldn't stop worrying. Suddenly, I felt that the current situation of my good Ji You was really a bit meaningless. Originally, for the sake of Orucello's face, and the squinting Brigadier General's seemingly sincere invitation, they had attended the meeting as "a famous adventurer and socialite in Neosfia". However, what they saw and heard made them quite speechless - the comrades in the ruins were busy pushing the boss to save the world, and the people above were playing office politics. What is the constructive point of a "military" meeting like this, where the overall style of painting is a bit wrong, except for wasting time?
"Say hello to Master Orucello, and we'll go down. Everyone in the ruins needs us more. Nanoka felt that spending another minute on it would be a waste of her life.
Fett smiled: "I've been doing spatial positioning since just now, but I still need your help to fully accurate positioning." β
The Heart of the Rising Sun and the Heart of Dusk were originally powerful magic weapons incarnated from soul fragments after the fall of the twin goddesses of Dawn and Sunset, who were in charge of the Rainbow Bridge, and the most powerful function after the combination of the two was the space jump. Back then, Nanoka and Fett were able to cross over to Songgard by mistake before they could fully control these two mana, and now, their strength, as well as their understanding and control of artifacts, are no longer what they used to be. The spatial disturbance around the ruins of the city beneath the water has become more and more serious, but not so serious that they can't do anything about it.
ββ¦β¦ Oh, Fett, I don't know what to do without you! β
"We've known each other since we were six, and it's no fun to say such kind words now."
Well, although the faces of the two people did not change, the fragrance of lilies brewed inexplicably, and everyone who was playing office politics involuntarily looked at these two girls who seemed to be living in another dimension from just now.
Squinting his eyes probably felt that if he didn't say something at this time, the atmosphere would be a little awkward, so he said, "...... Master, without your efforts, it would have been difficult to destroy these two evil demon gods, and I should thank you on behalf of all those who have been hurt by them. If possible, I can even invite the two of them to Elichar on behalf of the federal government and the Union, and the Central Council will certainly award them the highest honor, the Order of Friendship in the Free Skies, the highest honor, and the highest prize ......."
Then you can advertise that we are "under the leadership of the Federation, we have killed the Demon God Divine Servant, right?" Nanoka wondered if I had a stupid face, so she showed a beautiful smile that was quite natural and pure, and said in a cheerful tone: "You can't represent all the people who have been hurt by the demon god's minions, at most you can only represent the federal government." Also, I've got the Order of Santa Elena from the Grand Sanctuary and the Order of the Sea Shepherd from Neos Fia, and that Medal of Friendship for the Liberty Sky or something, it sounds like a lot of trouble! β
"Nanoka ......" Fit glanced at his good friend helplessly, and was very troubled by the other party's straightforward heart.
"In addition, I heard that the federal tax is very high, except for the members of the Academic Alliance, everyone else has to collect up to 45% of the personal tax, even the bonus is no exception. I wasn't very good at arithmetic before, and I had a headache when I heard that. β
Who to fool? Magicians need to use their spiritual power to establish a magical structure in their own sea of consciousness, arithmetic and geometry are not good, and they don't even have the minimum ability to imagine space. This sister is obviously too lazy to think of excuses.
Most of the mages and middle- and high-ranking officers from the Arcane family in the Academic Alliance were actually middle-level and second-class officers with excessive self-awareness, and at that moment, there were already several colonel-level officers who were wearing magic robes and were slightly younger stood up, their faces extremely ugly. Nanoka is a cute girl with a face value of more than 95 points, and these guys who feel very good about themselves can't tolerate each other's ridicule and sarcasm. However, as the main master, Dunboley? Brigadier General Dandy Lane stretched out his hand, smiled disapprovingly, and without saying a word, he directly blocked the difficulties of these people, and his prestige among his sons and buddies can naturally be imagined.
"The so-called appeal of a hundred calls, that's it, right? In fact, the gate valve family of the Federation is not all useless sons. Fett said with a smile, "What did Lu Xi say?" Oh, class decay does not mean that individuals will necessarily decay. β
"Even the leaders of the third-rate gangsters on the streets of Neosfia have quite a few of them." Nanoka rolled her eyes and said in her heart. However, she also knew that this was a hard mouth, and it was a different thing to convince a group of thugs who had never even gone out of their own neighborhood in their lives, and to convince a group of sons and buddies who thought they were the center of the world.
ββ¦β¦ That's a pity! In fact, I also think that the name of the Friendship Medal of the Free Sky is too long, and I always feel that I have to put all the important things together and pull them out. However, its shape is still quite good-looking, and I personally feel that it should be more artistically designed than the Grand Sanctuary and the medals awarded by Neosfia. His Excellency the young squint-eyed Brigadier General sighed with some regret, and then said to Andrel, "You are right, Lieutenant Colonel Ulysses, in this case, as the commander of the whole army, I am indeed obliged to stand at the front. In that case, let me lead the Marines to land first, right? Anyway, with Master Orucello in charge, I don't have anything to worry about. β
Andreel obviously didn't expect the other party to pronounce this way, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned,
"Well, a very courageous young man, this is very similar to Master Xiuyin, the first ancestor of your dandelion family." Orucello took a puff of smoke and complimented.
"The ancestors followed the great sage of Laxis, and finally made some contributions in the Qiming War, and it is also the proudest and glorious scene in the next family!" The young man of the dandelion family replied, his modest and reserved gentleness completely concealing his hidden pride.
ββ¦β¦ But do we have to listen to other people's opinions? Oluseiro directly jumped over the two lieutenant colonels on the ship, except for Andrel, and several veteran majors, and said to one of the youngest federal major officers: "Seyleu, you have been silent since just now, don't you have any ideas?" You're the fleet's operational staff! β
He didn't have any polite honorifics, and his tone was even more amiable and affectionate than that of Andrel, as if he was speaking directly to the juniors in the family. The federal officers present looked at each other, and many even felt shocked, and began to wonder if they had offended this young female officer who had been low-key outside of work hours during this time. The officers present were all transferred from the garrisons of the Commonwealth and recruited in the past two years, and had not participated in the Battle of Farahal or the series of major battles that followed, so they were not familiar with Sehire. They only knew that this little girl who was in a high position at a young age was very capable, and her background was said to be very deep, but they didn't expect it to be so deep.
"Ah...... This, this, master......"
"Master is what outsiders call me, and I can't wait to hear you shout like that! Just like Lu Xi's little villain, call me a teacher! Orucello said in a tone of course.
I am afraid that only a few people present understood the meaning of Orucello, and Sehireu's face suddenly turned red, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into it for a while, and his heart was mixed for a while, and he couldn't even express any objections. As a result, her colleagues could only continue to be more shocked, and began to wonder if they should find some expensive gifts to send to promote the relationship.
It took her a while to finally pack up her mood, think about it, and said seriously: "...... I think that the ideas of His Excellency Brigadier General and Senior Sister, uh, Lieutenant Colonel Ulysses, are all justified. It is true that ordinary soldiers are too irresponsible to enter such a battlefield, but since we are here, we should not miss this opportunity. β
A very calm answer, and both sides are not offended. The officers present couldn't help but exchange their hidden glances, probably thinking that such a young and beautiful, capable little girl with an unfathomable background is actually such an old fritter, isn't this setting a little boring?
"So, I think, the Marines should be on standby on the ship, and all that is needed is me, Lieutenant Colonel Ulysses...... And General Dandy Lane will be able to dispatch it. Speaking of this, Sai Xiliu's voice slowly calmed down: "I have faced those enemies! Although this sounds a bit harsh...... However, among all the active duty officers present, there were only three of us, and when facing them, we were not cannon fodder! "Orucello is not an active officer, so naturally he is not counted, and no one present dares to dispatch him.
Everyone felt that their breathing was a little heavy, and they thought that these "eldest misses" with deep backgrounds were not fuel-efficient lamps, so they couldn't help but secretly glance at His Excellency the Brigadier General, but unfortunately the other party still squinted at a pair of Danfeng eyes that seemed to be very deep and charming, and they couldn't see the expression on their faces at all, and even nodded thoughtfully.
"Indeed, to be the representative of the Federation and the Union, as long as the three of us are present, it will be enough." He said.
"Well, I'll ...... with Fett," Nanoka stood up.
"No, you don't have to go, just help me open a stable space door, this is your strength." Orucello suddenly put down his pipe and interrupted the girl in a calm, but irrefutable tone.
"But, teacher!" Sai Xiliu couldn't help but be anxious, and this "teacher" who might have taken a lot of time to call out was called out directly. Knowing that Lu Xi and other friends were in danger, but asking her to sit on the sidelines and watch was not the style of Miss Student Council President.
Orucello didn't answer, but with a deep look in his eyes, he asked Sehiru to swallow back the second half of the sentence, and then, his voice sounded directly in the girl's heart: "Sesilu, especially you, must stay on the ship!" β
Everyone was silent for half a minute, Dunboley? Dandy Lane seemed to have made up his mind, and said, "If you really want to go in person, it is better to be accompanied by a contemptible person......
"I told you to go by myself, and I'm not going to repeat the same thing a second time." Orucello interrupted the other party in a flat tone, but the air in the room suddenly froze, and the people present did not even dare to breathe.
"But don't think it's safe to climb the tunnels without going into the ruins, I have a bad premonition now." His face suddenly turned cloudy to clear, and he said slowly in a joking tone, so that the atmosphere in the room suddenly warmed up again.
"Move, then, boys!" Orucello clapped his hands vigorously and stepped out of the cabin first. And at this time, the water, the river valley, and even the whole strange rocky mountains, and the whole earth under the boat, began to tremble violently. The majesty of the shaking of the heavens and the earth even affected the sky, causing everyone on the ship to suffer a lot of shock, and everyone showed a more or less frightened reaction, and some people were even so frightened that they almost couldn't stand on their feet. Even Orucello couldn't help frowning, and a heavy haze flashed in his eyes.
"Teacher......" Sehireu reminded in a low voice. Orucello is now the backbone of this ship, and of everyone in the fleet, and everyone can show unease, but he definitely can't.
You're recovering pretty fast. Orucello looked at Miss Student Council President, nodded approvingly, and then said in a loud voice: "Everyone, according to the original plan, each is in place, and the whole fleet is ready for battle at any time according to the highest alert mode!" No matter what kind of enemy it is, once it leaves the water, just open fire! Nanorka, Fett, where's your space door? Don't tell me that these earthquakes will bring your perception down to the level of a blind old lady! β
"Look, there's no way you can go wrong!" Nanoka said loudly.
Orucello's agitation was very useful against the naturally black red fool, and in an instant all her doubts turned into fighting spirit.
The Federation and the Confederacy, or the greatest spellcaster in the entire world, remained calm and calm, which also calmed everyone down. After all, this is the most elite expeditionary force of the Federation at present, and once it regains its composure, all the preparations before the battle will naturally appear to be orderly and orderly.
However, no one knows what Orucello was thinking at this time.
ββ¦β¦ The worst has happened! If Yasty's wand and Hector's elm head weren't ready, I'm afraid I'd have to laugh at them until the next life! β
