Chapter 390: Magical City

Kevin dodged the question, which was indeed beyond his capabilities. Everyone likes to be tough and like to hurt equally, but whether it's really appropriate to do so depends on a variety of factors. In major national affairs, it is more taboo to do things emotionally, and we must use calm and rational analysis to come up with the most appropriate route. And this requires the most macro perspective, the most comprehensive intelligence, and the most professional quality, which Kevin lacks.

I don't know how many expatriate observation groups like Kevin have been sent around the world, and most of the intelligence collected by Kevin is unknown. The most cutting-edge technology, magic, economy, and military Kevin in the country is only half-understood, and Kevin only sees the tip of the iceberg of the empire's military power. What are the prospects for the country's development, what are the war predictions and costs, and where does Kevin dare to predict them casually?

In this case, Kevin's suggestion of war or reconciliation would be irresponsible. Kevin could only not answer, and the two sword saints were also stubborn.

"What are your plans for going back?" General Oude changed the subject.

"It's time to retire," Kevin sighed, a wry smile squeezing out of his mouth, "I joined the army mainly to avoid assassins. I don't think there will be any assassins coming to kill me now, right?"

The Assassin Guild smiled, "Not only will I not come to assassinate you, but I would like to invite you to join the Assassins' Guild." This is not an opportunity that ordinary people have. ”

On the side, General Oude hurriedly spoke: "Whether he retires or not, he himself doesn't count." You'll have to get my approval. ”

Kevin smiled bitterly, and didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only answer: "The general is right." ”

"Just kidding," the Assassin leader put away his smile, "as an Assassin, you must first be able to hide, you are a weak person, and it is not difficult to hide in the crowd." It's a pity that you are already too famous this time, not to mention that the Imperial people have noticed you, even the observation teams of various countries know that you are a person. Coupled with your personal strength, the Assassin is no longer suitable. Don't say it's you, even my daughter and Xiao Jiu are also a little ......"

General Ou De interfaced: "This stage is not the end of the year, and theoretically it is not the time to retire, but your status is special." If you really want to quit, then quit. It just so happened that your friend Start had retired together. ”

The Assassin Leader's Interface: "Your exploits on the Kobold's side are destined not to go down in history, nor will they be publicized to the outside world, and you yourself remember not to talk nonsense." However, the state has a secret archive, and your deeds will live on forever. ”

Kevin sighed: "It's all my teammates who are excellent, not my credit alone." ”

"What are your plans after retirement?" the two asked, seemingly chatting casually, but feeling very important.

Kevin paused for a moment: "It can't be that after retirement, there will be something to greet me, right?"

General Oude smiled: "Not usually, but for the country, it is always a pity to lose an excellent talent." ”

Kevin hurriedly shook his head: "How can I be a talent? I am still a red fighting spirit, and magic can't grasp the elements, how can this be called a talent? Let's find a place to retire." ”

"I remember that there will be a resettlement if a retired officer is spoken, right?" the Assassin leader asked, "Of course you can refuse to be resettled, you can find your own way." But if you still want to make money by telling pornographic jokes in the tavern, you will starve to death sooner or later. The times at home are different, in short, you will know when you return home. ”

"Where will I go?" Kevin asked. I always hear about the great changes in China, and people are always a little nervous about the unknown.

"If you are in politics, you can be given a village head, and you will be slowly promoted in the future. If you are in business, you will be given a sum of money to find an opportunity to go by yourself. Otherwise, there is no future for mercenaries in public security management, factories, and academies, and there are basically just these categories. General Oude replied.

Kevin was still pondering, and the crow had already flown to his shoulder: "Go to the academy, go to the academy." ”

Kevin frowned: "It's not just Wang Li's Academy, maybe go to that remote village...... Academy. ”

The Assassin Guild laughed dryly: "Although the country has changed greatly, there are still no colleges in the countryside. ”

"You can go to the Royal Academy if you want," General Oude said directly to the crow, "We don't know much about the experimental events of the year. Where can you go to find out? ”

Kevin was stunned: "This ......"

"It's okay," the Assassin President just smiled, "The Royal Academy is also a major place for spies from all over the world to rush into, and you don't have a single crow. ”

"Okay, but I'll think about where to go. Kevin didn't reply right away. After chatting casually, Kevin was really tired, so he would rest in the cabin.

The three-day journey passed in a blink of an eye, and the high-speed airship arrived on time in the city of Lou Paule, the city of Cirez. As one of the most prosperous coastal cities and one of the country's gateways to the outside world, after three or four years of expansion and transformation, it is almost impossible to see the original appearance. When I stepped on the land of the motherland, the first time was not a peace of mind and nostalgia, but a shock.

The towers that soared into the sky, the magic arrays that loomed in the air, and the entire sky were connected into a complex and gorgeous pattern. The airport here is more ornate than the kobold's palace and castle, with smooth marble paving, white stone pillars, and spacious halls. People from all countries and races come and go, except for the human race, there are all elves, orcs, and dwarves, and everyone is at least safe. The guards at the gate were majestic and well-armoured.

"Symmetry, symmetry!" said Jack.

Several officers in front trotted all the way over and saluted General Oude: "General! ”

"Let's go. Oude waved his hand, and everyone hurried to follow. Several of the officers who led the way also deliberately turned around and nodded to Kevin, who hurriedly smiled in return. Most of the people in the Thunder Knights knew Kevin, but Kevin didn't necessarily recognize them all, so he had no impression at all, so he could only respond with a smile.

"At this rate, we will return to the capital by evening. The specific situation will be discussed when we arrive in the capital. General Oude spoke.

The airport here has very strict security checks, but General Oude is present, so it is natural to open all the way. In a few moments, everyone had already walked out of the airport and came to a small wooden boat on the side of the road. In the air, a series of waterways flow out of thin air, high or low, straight or curved, with no support underneath, many wooden boats sail in the air, and even stop directly in front of the window of the upper floor to pick up and drop off passengers.

"Get on board. General Oude didn't talk much nonsense, he boarded the ship first, and the others hurried to follow. Then the driver came to the bow of the boat, grabbed two poles and began to drive the boat.

The sound of water waves arose, and the wooden boat began to move up the waterway. There was a splash, but instead of scattering, the splash was withdrawn into the waterway. There is nothing under the waterway, and there is nothing to touch when you reach out, which is a complete disregard for physics.

"Roughly the main city has three levels of traffic," General Oude explained, "and the top level is directly driven by the wind system, which is suitable for first-class masters or excellent wind mages. The middle layer is our layer, because the coastal city has sufficient water elements, so the use of volley waterway, inland cities also use others, this layer can basically sit, is a little more expensive. Of course, the lower floor is still land, the road has widened a lot, and a lot of traffic rules have been added, and the upper, middle and lower floors are not allowed to cross casually, otherwise there will be a car accident. You've been gone for too long, and you've had to learn again. ”

Kevin and the others nodded their heads again and again, and the scenery around them almost dizzy. Suddenly, a sign on a tower came into view: "Please pay attention to safety when flying, you are fully responsible for hitting and killing others." ”

Kevin: "......"

"Well," the Assassin Lord explained, "you also know the direct difference in strength between the strong and the weak, and once they collide, the strong are mostly fine, and the weak are basically helpless. This can be regarded as a means of restraining the strong. ”

"Is that a website over there?" Kevin pointed to a window in the distance where parrots were gathering.

"Yes," replied the general, "the Internet has been open for two or three years, isn't it? ”

"Parrots alone are not the way to fly," replied the Assassin Headmaster, "and now these parrots have just been retired, and there are still some military inertia in them, and they can barely follow orders." If they get old in the future, won't the network often be paralyzed?"

General Oude also sighed: "If you want to say that people still have to support their families, they have to work hard." The parrot eats a small amount of food, and with wisdom, they can live anywhere, and their motivation to work is still relatively lacking. ”

"But I still think it's important to exchange information," Kevin insists, "even if the parrot is slower, something is better than nothing." ”

"Developments and problems always come together," replied the Assassin Headmaster, "and if it were to be told, it would be another paper. But one thing is for sure, if you want to use a real network, you have to increase your internet speed. In terms of light transmission speed, it is faster than parrots, and wind spell transmission. No matter how fast it is, the teleportation array will be transmitted. No matter how fast, the light spell is transmitted. The fastest, spiritual contract communication known. ”

Kevin replied, "The Wind Messengers have references among the Empire's chariots, it's just that they didn't sell them to kobolds. Teleportation is the primary use of Imperial Cities, but it requires a lot of money. As for the last two ......"

"It's here. The driver spoke suddenly, interrupting the small talk. Looking down, this is already the teleportation array of the main city. The wooden boat sailed directly into the formation, and with a burst of white light, everyone saw a flower, and the people had arrived at the capital of Lou Baole country.

The architectural style of the capital city is very different from that of Cirez City, and as the capital city, the signs of Lou Baole are naturally plastered all over the streets. So the streets are full of funny, overlapping funny, hanging funny, and even a huge spherical building, the whole thing is funny.

People who have just returned to China can't help but be a little panicked: "Isn't this too funny?"

"It's also a consequence of too many architects. General Oude sighed.

"What is this?" the Assassin President smiled, "Someone has carved a mountain of funny, and he wants to make it a funny mountain." He killed all the wild animals in the mountains. ”

Everyone: "......"

"You know, since the rise of architecture, many mages have joined the ranks," replied General Oude, "but not all of them have architectural talents, or artistic accomplishments. For those with low strength, we can still manage them, and those with similar strength to us can only go with him......"

"If there is a real war, these will probably be destroyed. Kevin abruptly pulled back the subject.

As he spoke, a wooden boxy car stopped in front of everyone, and a man who looked like an official came out of the car: "You are here." Then let's go, the king has been waiting for a long time. ”

"How are the kings these two days?" General Oude asked casually. Obviously, the king is not having a good time with such a big thing recently.

The greeting official just smiled: "The king can eat and sleep, at least live a little longer...... Forehead...... For a long time. ”
