Chapter 135: The Iron Earl
Outside the car window, the misty lakeside town is gradually obscured by the dense forest, and only a small speck can be seen through the gaps between the leaves.
Despite their reluctance, Group A must continue to set off for a new destination, the fortress of Galyria, the patron saint of the Empire's borders, located at the eastern gate of the Empire, bordering Cross Berr and across from Calvard. At the same time, it is also the largest stronghold of the regular army of the empire in the empire.
However, since Regram does not have a direct train to the Garelian Fortress, the group will first transfer to the Continental Cross-Border Line in the trading city of Keldik to go to the Garelian Fortress to begin the second phase of this special internship.
At half past nine in the morning, the train stopped at the station of Keldik - although the city is small, Keldik is the most important trading center in the southwest of the empire, so it can be said that it is also blessed with transportation conditions, although it is only a six-figure town, but it has a wide railway no less than the capital of Krutchen, Balyahat.
As soon as you get off the train, you can see that a red blockade has been set up on platform 1, and the entire blockade is guarded by shrewd and capable military police units.
"What a coincidence." Just as everyone was drawn to the side of Platform One, a kind voice interrupted their thoughts. Not far away, female officers with a clear temperament looked at them with a smile.
"Ahh It's Claire! Miriam hugged him with a smile as usual, "Did you come to see me?" ”
"It's a coincidence. Because the "Iron Earl" is about to pass by, it is necessary to arrange a guard here. ”
"That's right. Hee-hee, I forgot about it. Miriam then remembered what it meant, and scratched her head as if she were dreaming.
"But...... It's been two months. It's been great to meet you. "At least nominally, they're all "sons of iron and blood." Heliga thought to himself, at this moment, Miriam and Claire's intimate gesture also caused a lot of discussion among the other students on the side.
"Ahem. It's rude. Claire seemed to notice the other students, and let go of Miriam and coughed softly, "Hello Class VII. Thank you so much for the previous incident in the imperial capital. ”
"Please don't care." "We have only fulfilled our duty as people of the Empire." Lane and Laura's respective responses were standard polite words. However, in Heiliga's opinion, these existences, which seemed unattainable in the eyes of others, were not so terrifying.
"If you can get those media in the imperial capital to shut up, then I can save more trouble." Heliga smiled, and he did.
"This ......," Claire smiled a little awkwardly, but quickly adjusted, "The Imperial Government has overseen all the reporting, and the general public will know about your activity, but not further information. ”
"Hmm...... I'm a little concerned about the Iron Count......," Emma whispered to Gaius and Jusis beside her.
"It's the Express Train for the Iron Prime Minister." Heliga had seen this thing once, "It seems that the Imperial delegation to the Trade Conference to Crossbell was the one who went to Crossbell?" ”
"Huh...... That's true. As for itself, you'll soon be able to see it. Claire nodded, as if in response to her words, and just as she finished speaking, the station announcement sounded at the right time: "The express train is about to pass through the first platform." Because it's very fast, be careful. ”
The sound of vibrations could be heard faintly in the distance, which was transmitted along the ground to the entire station, leaving passengers on other platforms a little confused.
In the next second, the steel behemoth with a red head suddenly appeared in view, and the golden military horse logo on the front of the car shone in the sun. And its speed is completely worthy of the name "Express" - with Laura's ability, she can't see the figure in the train's relatively spacious window.
"......" Even Helliga can only get a cursory glance without using time magic. He saw the flash of golden hair, the petite figure of Tova sitting on the train looking at some documents, and the man who always had a strong momentum of his own, sitting precariously in his own seat. As the train passed the platform, Heliga noticed that Prime Minister Osborne had turned his head, as if to look at the people in the station. Although he is not sure, Heliga feels that the prime minister seems to have made eye contact with Rien?
It must have been a coincidence, he thought. After all, no matter what, the prime minister doesn't look like someone with that level of dynamic vision.
"......" However, Lane obviously didn't think so. From the beginning, he had a visibly pained look, but soon this expression flashed, and the other students were distracted by the presence of the train, not noticing Riene's anomaly.
"That's the Iron Earl," Emma said......, with a heavy expression.
"It's a terrible thing, though I've heard of it before......," Jusis slowly came back to his senses, "it's a special train of the Imperial Government." ”
"I've sat on that thing once." Only Miriam has a more natural expression, "The interior decoration is also luxurious...... But there is a feeling of discomfort. ”
"Because it's only natural that people in this car will always be accompanied by people in high positions." Heliga nodded.
"By the way, the name 'Iron Earl' was named by His Excellency Osborne himself." Claire saw the crowd's discussion and added, arousing everyone's curiosity. It turned out that when Osborne was promoted to prime minister, in order to prevent the nobles from attacking him as a commoner, Yukent III granted him the status of an earl, but now this real imperial count is actually attacking the other nobles of the empire, which is really ironic.
The radio at the station sounded again, and it turned out that the new line that Group A was about to transfer to the station had entered the station. Alyssa and Fey, as well as Elliot, kept waving at the car window, while Macchias next to them was a little reserved, and Chloe looked at him with teasing eyes, and it seemed that the atmosphere in Group B was also quite good.
After a period of greetings, the train carrying the two groups of AB students slowly started and headed for the Garelian Fortress.
"Everything is fine over there at the Ssangyong Bridge."
"High-speed vehicles for combat are ready."
Claire, who watched the train go away, was pulled back to reality by her subordinates' report.
"I see. Don't be careless until the train passes. When the train arrived at Crossbell, the whole detachment moved to Plan D. ”
