“…… The article published by the dean of the Second Academy of Social Sciences of the Confederate Academy of Sciences caused an uproar online, arguing that the ACA had split into two distinctly incompatible factions, and that the 'evolutionary faction' dominated by the Eye of Unity was clearly much more dangerous than the 'conservative faction' once dominated by the Dallas Petroleum Association. This view was immediately refuted by most of the Coalition sociologists, with leaders of left-wing radical groups stating that 'this mistake is stupid' and that 'the greatest threat to human civilization is still the ghosts of the dead that have plagued mankind for centuries'......

"I can't stand it, these Dallas undead."

Marshall? Colona flicked the cigarette ash off his hand, and he stared at the metallic scenery outside on the balcony on the second floor—smoking was not allowed in the parliament building, but if a person of Marshall's level was lying on the balcony, there would be no gendarmes to say anything.

"I received a report that smoking is harmful to TF," Charl slowly walked onto the balcony with a glass of brandy, "and although it will take about a hundred years or so to show up, it is indeed harmful." ”

"Last time, you told me that TF's lifespan is actually less than 140 years old, and I'm not interested in your scientific stuff at all." Marshall shook his head, pressed the cigarette butt against the metal railing, then tossed the cigarette butt into the trash and raised his hand to dust the cigarette ash from his boot, "So now we pretty much know the bottom line on the other side." ”

"Helis will definitely not be able to save it, I hope you understand that." Char nodded, "There has to be a scapegoat for this kind of thing. Originally that Andorra? Jericho was the best choice, and who knew that he would run to the other side to be a hero. ”

"No way. This kind of thing, I understand. Marshall nodded. Helis is a newcomer, has no descendants, and is not usually sociable, and this kind of person is probably not going to have a second person to talk to her except me. ”

"Actually, I said earlier that you would hurt her by putting her in the position of South America." Char shook his head, but didn't show much regret, "South America has always been the place where the undead care the most, which is why the president asked you to help him fight for this area. ”

Yes. South America, with Brazil and Chile at its core, is the shadow organization's largest capital.

The so-called shadow organization, also known as the "dead of Dallas" as Marshall called it, is said to have been established as early as World War II, when the American oil tycoon, who was the "beacon of freedom", established this organization with the help of a socially skilled Jew, in fact. In the process of fighting fascism, this organization made a great contribution - the oil embargo on Japan is said to be their handiwork.

This organization has many names, and the first time they became known to the world was the "Dallas Petroleum Association", which was repeatedly mentioned during the Second American Civil War.

Under the onslaught of the energy crisis. These alliances, which started with fossil fuels and have a power rival to that of the superpowers, tacitly stifled the national ignition program and the development of new electric motors and batteries. directly led to the outbreak of the energy crisis.

The reason is simple, it allows these merchants to remain invincible. It's no longer about oil, it's about monopolies.

After the Second American Civil War. The Petroleum Association, which had been expelled from the devastated continent of North America, had established a foothold in South America with the help of the U.S. government - or rather, the U.S. government, or rather, most of humanity had come to know the true nature of the organization.

Under the banner of helping third world countries, the Petroleum Association has taken advantage of the terror it has accumulated over the centuries and the distrust of governments under the wave of the energy crisis to take root like a parasite in South America, until no country can shake its existence alone.

And then there was the Alliance and the ACA.

"If you want me to say, the president is still not resolute enough, if you want to take South America, I just go directly." Marshall shook his head helplessly, "Now I'm just a nominal South American minister, and Helis is an inexplicable 'commander' of the South American division, let me tell you, I'm not very interested in political games." ”

"We relied on these Dallas undead to get half of the country, don't underestimate them," Char said, placing the brandy in his hand on the railing in front of him, "at least we need to rely on them for a while." ”

"I understand." Marshall nodded, took off his big-brimmed hat, and rubbed his hair, "Actually, I can see the bottom line on the other side, which is to get rid of Heris, and then I promise not to parachute senior personnel into the Eyes of Unity branch in South America, and I want us to acquiesce in their bribery activities in South America...... In short, it is to weaken the existence of the Eye of Unity in South America, and this incident is an opportunity for them to fall from the sky, and they will certainly not let it go. ”

"But it also means that they don't understand where their bottom line is, and we can lower that line very low." Char smiled slightly, "Don't worry, you throw Helis out, and I'll coordinate the rest, these undead won't be arrogant for too long." ”

"Unfortunately, I always thought she was a child, just like my son," Marshall smiled wryly, shook his head, and took a drink of the brandy Charle had placed on the railing, "but I had high hopes for her when I dug her up. ”

"Children should go back to where they are, not be 'branch commanders.'" Charl raised his hand and patted Marshall's shoulder, and took the empty cup with his backhand. "It's just a casual move anyway."

"Don't worry, after so many years of partnering, you know I'm not an emotional person." Marshall buckled up his military hat and exhaled a puff of air that smelled of alcohol, "Then I'm leaving." ”

"By the way, there's one more thing." Char suddenly stopped Marshall, looked around for a moment, and then leaned over to his ear, "The president means that you will plan an attack on the big cities of Europe, so that you can save some face and morale." ”

"Operation Candlewax is imminent, and now it's going to attack European cities?" Marshall frowned. "It's not right."

"It's also the best way to get rid of that little knight and that courier," Char shook his head. I don't agree with Marshall's point of view - Ling Yu's existence is something that Marshall and Char will never ignore, especially since Ling Yu is actually the key to Milan's turnaround. But at Marshall's request, this was concealed by Helis in the report - after all, although Ling Yu was well-known in the courier industry, he was still not on the stage, but he had already attracted the attention of the two people on the balcony.

"Let them think that we have completed Operation Candlewax, this is the best way to do it, and it will not cause a backlash from the Knights, but our people in the Knights have made it clear that if Jesse dies. The Knights will definitely form an alliance with the Alliance. ”

"It's good that I didn't kill her," Marshall said jokingly, "I see, I'll leave this matter to me, and I'll go myself, and make sure nothing goes wrong." ”

"Thank you for your hard work."

Char gave a military salute as he handed the cup to his left hand, and Marshall, who had returned the salute, disappeared into the balcony door.

And he always had a playful smile on his face.

"Can't you arrange a special plane?"

Two days later. The top airport of the ACA submarine capital "Neptune".

Ren Xiu looked at the Air Force captain sitting behind the desk in front of him with some helplessness, trying to keep his tone calm.

Helis has been temporarily relieved of his position, which is expected, but Ren Xiu still seems a little discouraged. However, the young major still comforted his boss Lori - after all, he hadn't taken a good vacation for so many years, so he was supposed to rest at home.

However, just as the two were about to fly to the São Paulo base, they were told by the Air Force reception officer that the planes flying to São Paulo within a week would only be cargo planes. And all the VIP planes have already been booked.

The joke was as hilarious as "the Air Force doesn't work today" -- and full of obvious malice that exuded an air of mischief.

"We didn't get orders, sir. I'm so sorry. ”

The Air Force captain said sorry, but seemed nonchalant. As if completely indifferent to the fact that standing in front of him was a major, and behind this major stood a major general.

"I think a major general with the Eye of Unity has this right, and I will contact your superiors to negotiate." Ren Xiu's brows were tightly locked, and he was still making his last efforts.

"Duty, sir, please."

The captain shook his head, completely ignoring Ren Xiu's threat, and even stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the officer's office on duty.

Never mind.

Ren Xiu wanted to say something, but Helis, who was wearing a major general's uniform, gently tugged at the corner of his clothes and left a message in his contact lens.

Freighters are freighters, it doesn't matter.

"Yes, sir."

Turning around helplessly and nodding, Ren Xiu didn't say anything to the air force officer in front of him, and after glaring at the other party, he took a declaration form on the table and filled it out - it stands to reason that Herris's rank does not require this procedure, but Ren Xiu still took the initiative to do it, so as not to find any fault with the other party.

Obviously, not only the turmoil in the parliament, but the entire military saw this as the best opportunity to launch an all-out public opinion attack on the Eye of Unity, and at the behest of the army generals, the Air Force and Navy, which had been pressed by the Eye of Unity, followed the army and began to find some small stubble for the Eye of Unity - of course, they were not so crazy as to completely ignore the transcendent hierarchy of the Eye of Unity.

But for Herris, a major general who was at the center of the storm and had been removed from real power, it was inevitable that he would go a little too far.

"That's all right, sir!"

Ren Xiu, who had the rank of major, deliberately gritted his teeth and emphasized the word "sir" to the captain in front of him, as if he felt the coercion of the other party about to draw his gun and rush up.

"Tarmac 4, the next transport plane will depart in forty minutes, and the destination will be São Paulo."

The captain pressed the button without a tone, Ren Xiu turned around and followed Helis through the metal revolving door, and just as Helis passed by the Air Force captain's computer, Ren Xiu noticed that the information and flight numbers of several boarders flickered and changed subtly - think about the feeling that you were mistaken at the airport and even the flight number.

Who says this little Lori doesn't care? Is it clear that it is a flaw? Ren Xiu smiled bitterly helplessly, but he didn't sympathize with this air force captain who didn't know his unlucky fate at all.

Passing through the corridor and the elevator leading to the deck, the huge submarine Neptune was floating on the surface of the Southern Ocean, the autumn of the Southern Hemisphere and the strong wind at sea made Ren Xiu drape the cloak in his hand on Helis's body, and the girl with the star covered on her shoulder stretched out her hand, slowly tightening and fastening the strap of the cape, because there were no huge power boots, so the back hem of the cloak dragged to the ground, but the girl didn't care, and walked straight towards the cargo plane she was about to take.

"Sir, where do you want to go on vacation when you arrive in São Paulo?"

As a cultivator, he naturally can't say anything about dismissal, so he replaced it with vacation.

I want to go home.

Four inexplicable words appeared in front of Ren Xiu's eyes, but Ren Xiu understood what they meant.

For the 12-year-old girl in front of her, the so-called "home" is only one place.

It was a piece of ruins that used to be called Buenos Aires.

"Understood."

Following Helis up the steep gangway of the transport plane, Ren Xiu nodded and gave an answer, but obviously, inexplicably, in this nodding action, there seemed to be another layer of deeper meaning. (To be continued......)
