The roar of trains reverberates throughout the sprawling building since the early hours of the morning, and as one of the most crowded stations on the mainland, it is still as busy as ever.

In the carriage of a train from Erebonia that had just stopped, the blonde girl stepped out of the first-class carriage with her waist stretched, followed by a tall long-haired maid with purple hair. With the appearance of these two beautiful characters, it immediately attracted the attention of many pedestrians in the station, and many young people even stopped and were eager to try, but when they saw the big RF words on the train, everyone couldn't help but dismiss the idea of talking.

"Although the train is more comfortable, it takes much longer than the take-off boat, Sharon, what time is it?" After stretching herself, Alyssa looked back at the maid behind her as she walked.

"At 13:21, after all, the airship business has a limited range of voyages, and the cargo capacity is too different, and the most important thing is that the empire does not have a plan to build an airport, and for the huge Erebonian Empire, the railway is the most priority development direction. At least for now. Sharon, who was following closely behind Arissa, blurted out without even looking at the time.

"Not really, the technology of the airship on Libel's side has been updated, so how about having the opportunity to see if we can cooperate in the development of long-distance airships?" Alyssa tilted her head, "Although the cargo capacity is not good, but valuables... Isn't it cost-effective? . . ”

"That's right, the president originally had this plan, but the difference between investment and return was too great, and maintenance and operation were also a problem, so this idea was dispelled." Sharon replied, "The eldest lady can obviously fly in our company-"

"That's so troublesome, just applying will give me a headache for a while, and there are so many goods to be delivered, so I won't look for this kind of trouble." Alyssa shook her head.

"Sister Arissa! This way! ”

As they walked, they chatted, and as soon as the two walked out of the platform, a familiar voice came from the pick-up area not far from the exit, and the cat-eared girl with long light blue hair raised her hands and shook them to Alyssa's side.

"Theo! Long time no see! After being slightly stunned, Alyssa immediately picked up her handbag and rushed up, hugged Theo and replied cheerfully.

"I guess I saw it not long ago." Tio smiled helplessly, looked at Sharon who was following behind Arissa and nodded at the same time, "Long time no see, Miss Sharon." ”

"It's been a long time, but it's great to see you healthy, Miss Tio." Sharon bowed back and looked up at Arisa, "Then Miss, leave the work on the handover of the goods to me, you two should have a lot to say." ”

"I'm sorry Sharon, I'm sorry for you."

"No, then have a good time," Sharon bowed again, turned and walked back to the platform.

"I don't feel it from the screen, but I didn't expect you to grow up a lot after a few months." After seeing Sharon enter the station, Alyssa looked at Theo happily and said, "Really, you and Xiaoling are really hard to imagine your age. ”

"It's not like cats grow up so easily." Tio was helpless, "By the way, Sister Alyssa has already met with Ling?" ”

"It's better that Ling took me to find Ike." Alyssa touched her head, "Isn't she with you?" ”

"Because I went to Liber because of something." Tio replied, and then looked at Alyssa who was looking around with bad intentions, "But I don't think Sister Alyssa is looking for Ling, right?" ”

"Whew! I—I'm not looking for Ike! ”

"You've spoken out." Looking at Arisa Theo, who blushed instantly, she sighed and replied with some amusement, "No wonder Ike, Rei, and Miss Sharon like to play tricks on Sister Arissa, I seem to understand something." ”

"That's weird! Those people are restless, well-intentioned people who like to play tricks on people! Theo, don't learn from those people, we're on one front, aren't we?! ”

"Strictly speaking, only the two of us can be considered competitors, after all, Sister Arissa, you are Ryan Fuerte, and I am a member of the Epstein Foundation." Tio looked helplessly at Arissa, who likes to hold herself and is easy to be teased with, and doesn't know who is the sister of the two, and replied, "But Ike is really not in Crossbell now, the night before Sister Arissa, you came, and immediately ran away after hearing that you were coming." ”

"Why! Am I some terrible youkai?! Alyssa shouted in a deep blow.

"Ike's original words are that they are already handsome and don't say goodbye.,Wouldn't it be very embarrassing to meet again now.。。。 Such. ”

"It's still so particular about it in other places, as always." Alyssa gritted her teeth, and finally became a little helpless and replied, "Forget it, Ike has been like this since the past, so did he say where he went?" ”

"The exact location has not yet been determined, but it will generally move within the empire, and the final destination will be the imperial capital." Theo replied with a solemn expression, "Before that, there are some data I want you to see, Sister Arissa, which is also what Ike meant." ”

"What do you mean by Ike? Are you sneaking around stealing data? ”

"It's not that kind of inconsequential thing."

"How dare you say that one of Ryan Fuerte's most important stats is irrelevant... Is something wrong? Alyssa looked at her with a solemn expression, not like Theo who was lying.

"Sister Arissa, is there a bit of mana content in the underground of the steel capital Lulei to count?" Tio asked rhetorically, and without waiting for Arisa to answer, he took out a stack of printer paper from the pocket of his coat and handed it to Arisa before continuing to speak: "This is an investigation into the mana content of Crossbell's underground, because Crossbell's underground is almost empty, and these data are relatively easy to obtain. The entire underground area of Crossbell now has increased its mana by more than 6% compared to last month, and the information from the automatic statistics of the terminal just now shows that this value has become 7%. ”

"Impossible!" Arisa, who snatched the data, shook her head while checking the numbers on the paper, and as her eyes came down, the confusion and uneasiness on her face became more and more serious, until the last column of data was checked, and Alyssa, who sighed for a long time, was already unhappy with the joy on her face, and asked with a lot of puzzlement, "What is going on?" I just asked Luray about the situation, do you think that Luray's side is now affected as well as Cross Bell? ”

"I'm afraid it's not just Luray and Crossbell, as far as statistics are concerned, the old capital and Haidu, and even Yumir in the north have signs of influence, but in comparison, neighboring Libel has not been affected, it's like a symptom that appears specifically for the Empire." Theo replied, and before Theo could continue to speak, a hurried bell interrupted the conversation, and the urging words came from the receiver almost as soon as Theo connected the communicator.

"Director Tiou! The underground area has changed again! ”
