The red-brick hut stood alone in a corner of the northern suburbs of the West Coast, out of tune with everything here, as if it were born to be isolated. Karl was walking down a dirt road on the northern outskirts of the West Coast when he saw some horseshoe prints and chaotic footprints, and it looked like the guys passing by must be very alarmed. Anyway, on this side of the river, they still don't have to worry about the gangsters on Sanban Street. But they seemed to think that the thugs might have crossed the river to rob them, so there was almost an accident in the place.

Carl went there because he knew Nils was in that hut. That was his stronghold here, and it was still too difficult for a Celestial to gain a foothold in the town, especially someone like him who wasn't good at dealing with strangers. Carl might have mustered up the courage to strike up an accosting Arad girl, though he wouldn't do that, but Nils didn't even dare to look at Arrad's strange girl.

"Nils, are you there?" Karl knocked on the door.

"It's coming!" Nils' voice came from the hut, and after a few moments, he opened the door. When he saw that it was Carl, he didn't know why he was inexplicably relieved.

"What's the matter?" Nils walked back to the table, continuing to study a few pieces of parchment. He seemed to be able to adjust to life in Arad, and despite the shabby nature of the house, he apparently didn't think of it as a permanent stronghold, like the underground room he knew of in Sanban Street, which was almost only frequented by rats.

"We're all ready to do it tomorrow. Karl pulled a cigarette out of his cigarette case and put it in his mouth. "We were busy with the little things almost all day and it felt like going back to that time. ”

Nils looked up and said with a smile. "yes, happy times, right?"

"Time flies. Carl spat out a long string of smoke rings.

"Anyway, we'll have a chance to teach the clowns a lesson. Nils put down what he was doing and sat down on the couch in the room. "Speaking of which, how long has it been since you've fought the guys at Callert?"

"Long enough. Carl tossed a cigarette at Nils, then found a chair and sat down. "But no matter how long it takes, it's easy to create some disturbance among them. ”

"How did you get here?" asked Nils with interest, and Carl certainly knew what he was referring to. What the other party wants to hear is not how they crossed the sea of sky, or how they almost drowned in the sea of sky. What he wanted to know was the story of his own time before he jumped into the sea of sky, and after the Ardennes Heights garrison broke apart and collapsed, everyone who survived lived like rats in the lawless zone.

"Do you really want to hear it?" asked Carl.

Nils nodded, "I really think, as you, who have fought off the whole wave of Kahlert's attacks alone in the garrison, you shouldn't just be idle and be chased by those clowns, right?"

"Of course not. Carl shook his head. "I went to the eastern part of the Unable Zone, passing through the foggy capital of Huys. It's unpleasant that the place has been converted into a military base by Kahlert. Since then, I have been fighting alone against the local Kahlert forces among the small villages in the eastern part of the Beltless Zone, and their combat effectiveness is terrifying. Did you know? I've seen a Kahlert soldier shoot his own man because he's drunk, and that's stupid. ”

"I can probably guess what happened. Nils spread his hands.

Karl looked at him approvingly, no matter how much time passed, they would never forget what Captain Bilmoz had taught them. In any case, he was a man who had a lot of contact with Kahlert. Before joining the garrison, all Carl could do was sneak up on the lone Callert soldiers in a dark place. But since joining the garrison, he has learned the fighting skills that he can fight against, something that the Ardennes Heights garrison left him.

Nils didn't want to say it, because he knew it would be uncomfortable for Carl to do that. The last thing Kahlert could tolerate after conquering the Ardennes was the remnants of the garrison rats wreaking havoc on their turf. They were able to bombard the entire demarcated area with a barrage of cannonballs to get rid of a few rats, so that after a long time, many of the small villages that could resist Kahlert disappeared from the map completely.

"It must be uncomfortable, right?" asked Nils with concern.

"It's a rebellion, and even if I'm uncomfortable, I can only endure it. Karl smiled wryly.

"It can be seen that you are not doing well there, after all, the rat-like life lasted for a long time, until Calett officially launched a second invasion of the imperial capital. "Nils must have had an inhuman time in the Impossible Zone, a feeling that only those who have experienced it know. Without food, water, ammunition and medicine, you can't even wear clean clothes for the whole day. Hiding in a dark and damp room all day long, the whole person is going to mold. When you hear the roar of the engines and have to find a way to dodge Caller's patrol convoy, everything sucks.

"We'll catch him, when our plan succeeds. After a brief pause, Karl spoke.

"yes, it's great to have that guy as a starting point. Nils clenched his fists.

"This will be the beginning of our revenge. Karl stood up and held out his hand to Nils. The latter also stood up, reaching out and squeezing Carl's palm heavily. "Let's go beat them up. ”

Kelly had been waiting for a long time to meet McGee, but she wasn't in a hurry. The vigilance level of Sanban Street must have increased by a few levels during this time, and although there are many operational advantages as a goblin, it will take a while to figure out the distribution of defenses in the town. She felt that there was no more worthy deal now, a goblin could be an enemy of humanity, but it could also become a friend of humanity, and things were never absolute.

The short, comical figure didn't appear until half an hour later, and it was already early in the morning. Kelly didn't feel sleepy, it was an important night, and she had to make sure everything didn't mess up. McGee is one of the few goblins who can speak the lingua franca of Arad, so she shouldn't have much of a problem communicating. When McGee arrived, Kelly could see the sinister face of the guy with shock written all over it.

Perhaps the universal machine gun will surprise and excite it, but the rocket turret and pillbox will scare it so much that it will not even be able to speak. It's an exaggeration, but McGee does come across something that is really hard for him. Despite its incoherent description, Kelly managed to figure out what it saw. What to say, this was what she expected. After McGee had done her job well, Kelly handed McGee the promised reward - a small bag of bullets, and it finally ushered in something that made her happy.
