The majestic steed pulled the black carriage on the hard road, and the rolling wheels carried up billowing smoke and dust to the rear, like a long gray dragon flying out of the carriage, which could not be calmed down for a long time.

Of course, this would not be the case if there was only one carriage, but the smoke and dust from a convoy of ten carriages made it difficult for a vehicle to keep up for a full kilometer behind.

Without the guards to follow, this convoy even went out in batches from the various gates of Wellington, and then gathered, the elders of the Rose family would collectively dispatch such a major event, it must be concealed, and the secret things they were going to do next should not be known to too many people.

"I know you don't love me, but I don't love you either. ”

There were only two people in the carriage, Philip and Caroline, and the sound of the wheels rolling on the ground made the drivers outside unable to hear the sound in the carriage.

"Of course I know, I also know that it is our two families who need such a marriage, it is the royalists who need such a marriage, it is the damn politics that needs such a marriage, don't take me for a fool, the boy next door back then has grown up. Philip glanced indignantly at Caroline and turned his head out the window.

"Since you said that you have grown up, then, you can't think like an adult, the two of us are married, you will be able to inherit the Ross family in the future, and I will be able to sit firmly in the position of the empress because of the support of the Ross family. ”

"I've grown up, and I know how to think about politics, but it doesn't mean that I have to be like you, even my own aiqing has to betray for the sake of politics. Philip suddenly looked at Caroline in a rage, and slammed his fist on the door. There was a loud "thump".

"If you weren't my brother's fiancée, if you were just an imperial princess without a lover, I might not be so repulsive, but you have a lover! Moreover, that person is still my brother! Now you are going to marry his brother, don't you feel ashamed?"

As soon as Philip's words fell, Caroline's eyes turned red, and the girl bit her lip tightly, but two lines of tears still flowed down her full cheeks.

"But. He's dead......"

Caroline twisted her beautiful face aside. Philip's long golden hair was blocked by his long golden hair, and his two modest hands were twisted together, and his knuckles were a little white.

Philip opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. The news of George's disappearance, rather than his death, was obtained by Katrina through secret channels. Once he speaks out. It's hard to guarantee that this secret won't be known by others, and hopefully the goddess will have a connection with the demons, which will ruin Katrina. Or even the entire Cult of Hope. Moreover, although George was missing before, his life and death are now uncertain, and if they were told that George still had a glimmer of hope for life, but he died, it would make Caroline and her father even more painful.

For a moment, Philip didn't know what to say.

"No matter what, we all have to get married, you don't have to touch me, I don't want to have sex with you, it's a big deal that I will choose another baby from the Hoddle family to inherit for us in the future, in short, no matter what, the marriage between the Ross family and the Hoddle family must be completed, and George will definitely agree with this!"

Caroline wiped away her tears, clenched her hands into fists, and looked at Philip firmly.

Philip sighed, his tone full of helplessness: "Okay. ”

――――――

The carriage came to a slow stop, and Philip jumped out of the carriage first, his feet on the soft ground, leaving only black or gray ashes from the burn.

The pitch-black mountain in front of them made the elders a little surprised, although they knew that this was caused by the seventh-level magic fire sea, but a mountain was burned black, it was still very visually impactful.

Led by Philip, the group soon found the entrance to the cave, and Philip pressed the switch next to the cave wall, and the magic lamps hanging on both sides of the wall turned on one after another, gradually lighting up a shining passage in the darkness.

The elders glanced at Philip with complicated expressions, this man who did not have much of the ability to control large organizations in their memory did so much in the vicinity of Wellington without a sound, which greatly surprised them.

Walking in the long passage, the footsteps came and went, oscillating back and forth in the cave, the short and narrow environment made people feel oppressive, and Philip, who led the way in front, led Caroline, did not say a word, just walked silently, which made other people's hearts swell up with a sense of uneasiness about the unknown.

"Hmph! Keno snorted dissatisfiedly.

Philip turned his head, looked at his cousin indifferently, gave him a cold look, turned his head, and pulled Caroline on.

He really wanted to end it quickly, and although he reached an agreement with Caroline on a fake marriage, Philip was still very unaccustomed to this kind of fake show of affection.

A wide space suddenly appeared in front of everyone, the wide hall with a height of three buildings had obvious artificial traces, the flat ground, and the magic lamps hanging evenly around it indicated that this was definitely not a natural formation.

None of this was the point, though, and the elders were quickly drawn to the behemoth in front of them.

Philip let go of Caroline's hand, walked to the side of the big truck, climbed down the long ladder to the side of the driver's cab, walked along the circle next to the driver's cab, walked to the front of the bulge, opened his hands, and said loudly to the elders: "Gentlemen, ladies, allow me to introduce you to the ancient machinery from the Goblin Empire!"

As soon as Philip's words fell, there was a tremor in the earth, and large clouds of dust were scattered from the roof, accompanied by small stone grains from time to time, and it looked like an earthquake was coming, and there were more timid elders on the spot screaming to escape the way they came.

Nicholas and Caroline didn't panic, they knew that no matter what, Philip would not harm them, and for those close to him, Philip valued his life more than his own life.

The four magicians who had been in the cave for a long time formed a huge magic shield in the four corners of the crowd, enveloping everyone in it, so that no sand and stones would fall on people's heads.

"Philip, what are you going to do, are you going to kill us elders, so that you can become the patriarch directly?" Kino shouted frantically, and his pockmarked figure trembled in the wind to the grass and trees.

"Whoa!"

The solid rock walls suddenly shattered, and the bright sunlight shone in from outside, making people's eyes, who had just become accustomed to the dim light, a little uncomfortable.

First a straight light shone on the ground like a sword, then two, three times, until Zuihou, a bright opening appeared in the wall of the hall, and a two-story steel giant appeared in front of everyone. Philip stretched out his hand and pointed at the shocking big guy and yelled, "Excavator!"

As if in response to Philip's words, the excavator walked forward a few meters, the pulley on the top of the big arm slowly turning, and under the action of the wire rope, the bucket hung low, as if to salute the elders.

"Now, I'm going to introduce you to this guy - a minecart!"

Philip waved his hand to the dark elf in the driver's cab of the excavator, only to see the huge excavator rotate ninety degrees, shovel into the large broken boulder on the ground, and then slowly raise the stick, lift it flat and turn back one hundred and eighty degrees, and put the bucket into the dump bucket of the minecart.

The baffle at the bottom of the bucket opened, and the stones and dirt fell into the cart with dust, and the waterfall of the rocks stunned all the elders, who had never seen such a mining method in their lives, and now the mining method was like a child's house by the miners digging little by little, and then loading it into the wheelbarrow.

This process was carried out three times, the dump of the minecart was filled with gray-brown rock, Philip patted the window behind him, and the eight wheels under the ore-carrier that were taller than a human began to move, unlike the roar of the trucks on Earth, the power part of the Magic Minecart did not make a sound, but the wheels clattered the ground with a lot of clicking sounds.

The huge metal wheel slowly approached a fist-sized stone, which made people very worried that the heavy ore truck would be deformed and scrapped after being blocked by this stone, but the imaginary thing did not happen, the stone was caught in the wheel, and the hard metal did not change, but after the ore truck, the stone turned into powder, and in the process, the body of the ore truck did not even rise a little.

Philip stood in the aisle in front of the driver's cab, leaning on the fence and turning his head to the elders, "Everyone, please come with me, there is more haode outside." ”

This hall is not actually in the middle of the mountain, but at the bottom of the mountain is relatively outer, after everyone walked out, they found that there was a small mountain bag opposite, a large car with a long shaft was parked on the top of the mountain, and in the shaft was a drill pipe pointed downward.

This looks like a missile launcher on Earth, except that the head of this "missile" is Xiangxia. No one in the Bright Continent had ever seen this thing, and the elders looked at Philip suspiciously, not knowing what this thing was for.

Some elders have already figured out what Philip just showed them the excavator and the ore truck, in order to facilitate mining, the excavator digs, the ore truck transports, the speed of ordinary mine mining can be several times faster than now, no, it should be more than ten times, dozens of times, but unfortunately, I don't know if the excavator used to dig those hard mines in the family can also be as fast as just now.

It's just that what is this big guy on the top of the mountain for?

Philip, who got off the cart, smiled and said to the elders, "This thing is called a drill rig, and everyone will know what it is for later." ”

At the sound of an order, Gary, the leader of the dwarves who had been waiting here, waved a flagpole three or four times taller than him, and the red flag fluttering in the air seemed to herald an exciting moment to come. (To be continued......)
