Chapter Ninety-Six: The Imminent War
Standing in front of us, Lucy was dressed like her eldest brother, wearing a red trench coat and a pair of black boots, but her clothes were tighter and brighter, making her figure look delicate and tall. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info and her appearance when we last met at Chuo University has also changed a lot: the original double ponytail has been coiled on the head, turning into a retro braided hair style, making herself look like an ancient female warrior; she is holding a big knife in both hands, the scabbard is behind her back, and the big knife is about the same height as her, I really didn't expect a weak girl like her to use this weapon; and the biggest change is that she didn't wear glasses, so that at this time she didn't have her previous quiet appearance at all, but looked heroic and full of energyοΌ
"Lucy, why are you dressed like this? Are you really a member of Carlson's Honor? Is that your voice on the radio just now?" Lawrence asked Lucy, and I could feel the excitement and confusion in his heart, just like when I saw my big brother in the underground cavern before.
"Yes, I was the one who said our Carlson Honor Regiment on the radio, and I've been a member of this organization for a long time, but you don't know it. Lucy thrust the knife back into the scabbard behind her back and said lightly to Lawrence.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"There's no need for that, I don't have to tell you everything, do I?"
"Does your mom know?"
"I don't know. β
"What the hell do you think about you joining the 'Carlson Glory Regiment' and not telling us about such a big thing?"
"It's my own decision, and I don't need her consent. β
"Hmm~ You're in danger right now, do you understand? You're fighting against the whole country, and there's no good result..."
"That's enough! I'm not here to answer your question, let's make a move, I'm not a student anymore, I put on contact lenses just to be able to fight better, I'm going to defeat you fools with my comrades, Carlsen's tomorrow can't be handed over to you!"
"Hmm~" Lawrence looked helpless, he was usually obedient to Lucy, but now seeing Lucy's persistent look, there is nothing he can do with her.
"I know how you feel right now. I approached Lawrence, patted him on the shoulder, and nodded to Neil next to him, and said, "Big brother didn't tell me when he joined the 'Carlson Glory Regiment' before, and he suddenly ran away from home and left me and Neil behind, so we came to him with our companions, you must be very confused now, why don't you let me say a word to Big Brother now, Lawrence." β
Lawrence looked at Lucy, sighed, didn't say anything more, and retreated into the line, where Annie, Emma, and Alan at the end of the line were running over to treat the fallen Zaoga and the other members of the security team nearby, and a brief calm was restored to the square.
I turned my head and began to ask in a loud voice to my eldest brother, "Big brother, you just said that we will live a non-stop fighting life in the future, what is going on?"
"Don't you understand? This country will be plunged into war in the future, and warriors of your strength will inevitably be involved in it, becoming part of the war machine, and accompanying the battle all day long, and there will be no more peace!"
"Will our country be at war? is it a civil war with your Carlson Glory?" asked Neil.
"Of course not! The war was not caused by us!" Suddenly, a golden six-pointed star magic array appeared in front of us, and in the next second, the older Abbas teleported in front of us from the high platform of the headquarters building of the security forces, loudly refuting Neil's conjecture. At this moment, the three horsemen of the "Carlson Glorious Regiment" mentioned in Lucy's mouth are all together, and some differences between the three can be seen from their dresses, the red on Lucy's trench coat is bright and bright, the red of Abbas is deep and dull, and the red of the eldest brother is simple and unpretentious, between the first two colors, the younger the person, the more energetic and energetic the color of the clothes, and the older the person, the more dull the color of the clothes.
"Ax School... No, Principal Abbas, is Instructor David okay?" I asked.
"Thank you for your concern, Chris, I've restored him to our physician to his original appearance, and it shouldn't take long to get back to health, but his broken right arm can't be regenerated, so he has to be fitted with a prosthetic..."Principal Abbas said with regret, "Let's go back to the topic, our Republic of Carlson will be invaded by foreign enemies, and the country's borders will be in flames!"
What? Is it an invasion by a foreign enemy? Is it an invasion by another country? Won't there be a large-scale war at that time? The country will be in dire straits!
"Who is going to invade us? Is it the Starlight Empire? I know that they have the ambition to expand their territory, and they have been eyeing us for the past ten years. Neil said.
"No, it's not their turn for the time being, but the Kingdom of Nirisan in the southern part of our country's coast!" Principal Abbas's words shocked everyone, "In history, although the other side has always coveted our coastal territory, and invaded our country three times and was repelled by us, it has still had good diplomatic relations with us in the past hundred years, their royal family pursues the national policy of peaceful development, and the coastal trade with our country is very prosperous, so it can be said that the relationship between our two countries has never been so good. β
"Then why would they want to invade us?" I asked.
"I don't know, our scouts have learned that the Nirisan Kingdom has been carrying out large-scale military activities during this time, and Roy's last sneak there has also confirmed that they are preparing for war, and recently we have received information that they are now a vassal state of the Starlight Empire, and it is very likely that they are under the command of the Starlight Empire, so they have become ready to move, ready to start invading our country at any time. β
"How did you get the information that the kingdom of Nirisan is about to attack?" asked Neil.
"It's because of them!" the eldest brother pointed at Saoga, who had just been treated by Anne and returned to the team (looking at his expression, he seemed to have recovered well, and it is estimated that he was even cured of motion sickness), "The 'Seven Deads' were not only sent to hunt me down, but also to reconnoiter our country's intelligence!"
I looked at Theorga in surprise, I couldn't see that he was so cunning, and he had been hiding this news from us until now, it turned out that the "Seven Dead Apostles" were still the reconnaissance team of the Nirisan Kingdom?!
"What do you think Lao Tzu is doing this way? Lao Tzu doesn't know anything, Lao Tzu's mission is to kill this tiger warrior, except for the last time in the Bastar border area, Erin insisted that we kidnap that little blonde girl, Lao Tzu's goal has never changed, where is the reconnaissance mission? Let Lao Tzu give that bullshit empire official might as well kill Lao Tzu!" Theoga saw that we were all staring at him with suspicion, and yelled angrily, quite dissatisfied with our attitude towards him.
"Your team is not here to reconnoitre, but your captain Halder and that bear warrior are not so simple people, they have been spying on important information about our country, which our comrades only learned after paying the price of blood. The eldest brother said.
"Hmph, I haven't been able to see them, it turns out that they have been sneaking around on this fame!" said Saoga contemptuously.
"You can report this to the government and ask them to be prepared, there is no need to take such extreme measures to make the whole country so chaotic!" Harvey said.
"Captain Harvey, we've been reporting this to the government for a long time, but no one is listening to us. At present, there is no sense of crisis at all levels of the country, the combat effectiveness of the army has been greatly reduced, and many unhealthy tendencies have been brought to the garrison and security forces, and government officials are all day long thinking only about expanding foreign trade to make money, and to generate income and political achievements, but they do not pay attention to the fact that the border defense is already in a critical state, and even the phenomenon of discrimination against people of different races within the country is occurring... We just saw that the current government itself was in various hidden crises and never foresaw them, and was happy to enjoy this false peace, so we decided to make a real difference in the country in our own way!" Lucy said excitedly.
"Change, what are you going to change?" Lawrence couldn't help but ask behind me.
"Of course, it is to change the country's many bad status quo, change its backward national strength, and change its gradually unequal social relations, only in this way can Carlson become truly strong!"
"But don't you and your mother live well in my house? You now live in the same manor as I do, you go to the best Central University, and you yourself are the president of the student union, what changes will happen to you?"
"Yes, thank you family for taking care of me and my mother, I used to think that there was nothing wrong with this, but after I came into contact with that person, I realized that this is not what our country really is, and now someone has to step up and do something, otherwise it will only be torn apart by the enemy and some of us. β
"Who made you like this? By the way, is that Spike? I just taught him a lesson, and I'll keep him from messing around again, don't worry..."
"Huh~ You're still so stupid! I can't understand you~" Lucy sighed, "You still don't understand what I mean, as the son of the Speaker, what you see, hear, touch, and even understand in your surroundings is too narrow, I really don't have time to tell you so much, if you still want to continue to ask me any questions, wait until you defeat me!"
