Chapter 3 Alcana
"Alcana Defense Zone...... Anyway, this defense area is not very easy to mix. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" The young soldier pretended to smile mysteriously, "I don't think a newcomer like you has any concept, as your senior, I am kind enough to give you a wake-up call." β
Caesar sighed, nodded, and said, "Thank you." β
The young soldier continued to laugh and looked at Caesar with a little deep meaning, as if waiting for something. He wouldn't be really kind enough to remind Caesar to be careful, this so-called kind reminder is just for some benefit.
As a newcomer, if you want to know more at this time, it's very simple - honestly take some money and pay respect, don't you understand this point?
But after waiting for a long time, Caesar didn't say anything more than thank you.
The young soldier couldn't help but be a little annoyed, and said with a calm face: "Why, as a newcomer, you have accepted my benefits, is a thank you enough?"
Caesar couldn't help but laugh, and asked in a pretended dazed manner, "What else?"
"You-"
The soldier sneered, rolled up his sleeves and made a gesture to fight, his mouth was arrogant and fierce, "The recruits of these years are really getting more and more unseemly, and they ...... before they officially enlist."
Didn't go on, or rather, couldn't go on.
Because two fingers appeared in front of him, and the fingertips lightly dotted the soldier's eyeballs, and the fingertips were wrapped with subtle wind and thunder power, although it was not much, but for some reason, it gave people a sharp feeling that could pierce through everything.
Caesar slowly withdrew his hand and said very politely: "Is there anything else to do with this senior? If not, I still have some luggage to pack." β
"Ahh......h Oh, that's nothing, how can there be?" the young soldier looked at Caesar one last time, as if he had seen a ghost, and then hurried away.
Closing the door, Caesar gently rubbed the enlistment notice in his hand and shook his head.
Of course, Caesar will not take this kind of encounter to heart, it is just a small thing, but it can reflect many things, and it has strengthened Caesar's thoughts.
Absolute, reliable power must be mastered!
Otherwise, whether it is Teacher Lan's protection or his identity as a craftsman, he will not be able to really help himself to hold his fate in the palm of his hand.
A small enlistment notice will cause such contradictions and frictions, if Caesar was just an ordinary recruit just now, in the face of the extortion of veterans, what could he do?
The military department is highly disciplined, but after all, it cannot cover every detail of the empire.
At this time, the little dragon on his shoulder screamed softly, Caesar was stunned, and then smiled: "Why, what are you asking about this Alcana defense area?"
Xiaolong nodded, his eyes were pitiful, Caesar didn't need to ask to know that what this little guy was really worried about was whether there was anything good to eat in the place he was going to.
Now, although Caesar has abandoned his identity as a god craftsman, leaving endless doubts for all forces, including the imperial military department, his magic craftsman skills are still there.
By building something casually and selling it without attracting attention, Caesar now doesn't have to worry about making a living at all.
In fact, if he was willing to spend a little more time striking iron, he would already be a small rich man, and Xiaolong's food and drink expenses would not be a problem at all.
Caesar touched Xiaolong's head and whispered, "Don't worry, there are actually a lot of delicious foods in this Alcana defense area, you don't have to worry." β
When he said this, Caesar's tone was a little strange.
As a former reading maniac, Caesar already knew the general situation of the various defense areas in the Hengduan Mountains, and he didn't need the young soldier to talk nonsense just now, and he wouldn't know less than the other party.
The Arcana, also known as the Death Zone, is located in a very treacherous, yet crucial position in the Hengduan Mountains.
Because the terrain is so steep that it is difficult for even strategic airships to transport supplies into it, the defense facilities of the Alcana defense zone can be said to be the worst among the more than 150 defense zones scattered in the Hengduan Mountains.
At the same time, due to the critical position, the frequency of fighting there was no less than that of the most intense defense zones.
The lack of setup and support, and the fierce and frequent battles, made the Arcana a place where the brave Imperial soldiers were to hear about it.
Under normal circumstances, few people would take the initiative to go to that hellish place.
"But...... That's exactly what I wanted. Caesar said with the corners of his mouth curled slightly.
As for why the military department gave itself such an arrangement, is there any other person, for what reason, under what kind of idea, and what kind of conspiracy is being carried out against him......
Caesar didn't bother to pay attention!
After that masquerade banquet, Caesar had deeply understood a truth: all conspiracies and tricks are scum in the face of absolute power.
So...... him all. Mother. Yes.
Caesar whistled, in a good mood, and began to pack his luggage.
Oh yes, it's not a lie to tell Xiaolong that the food in that place is plentiful. In that defense area, which is known for its sinister environment and lack of materials, lives a rather mysterious ancient magical beast - the Alcana Disaurus.
......
......
Caesar was in a good mood, and there were many people who were in a bad mood because of Caesar.
Spring in the imperial capital came relatively late, and now there is still the bitter cold of winter.
At the headquarters of the Twelve Round Table Families, Shiloh was dressed in luxurious and warm robes, closed his eyes and half-leaned back on a luxurious chair, listening to the report of a family commissioner.
His brow furrowed, and it grew deeper and deeper as the commissioner's report grew.
Until a certain moment, the new young patriarch of the Twelve Round Table opened his eyes, looked coldly at the family commissioner, and asked, "You said so much just to tell me that Caesar's whereabouts are still uncontrollable, right?"
The commissioner bowed his head, "Yes." β
"The Yi ...... who beat me at the masquerade banquet Didn't find it either?"
The commissioner began to break out in a cold sweat and said stubbornly, "Yes." β
Shiloh forced to look at the other party who didn't dare to raise his head, the corners of his eyes were constantly beating, this was his reaction when he was about to lose control of his emotions, this is a rare situation for Shiloh, who has always been in the city, the last time he couldn't control his emotions, or when he completely lost to the dead first heir in a family competition.
Just when the commissioner thought that he was going to be unlucky today, he only heard Shiloh take a deep breath and said slowly: "Okay, you go down." β
The commissioner hurriedly withdrew, as if he had been granted amnesty.
Shiloh slowly got up from his seat and walked to the room's huge floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the scenery outside.
Different from the bustling and lively Phoenix City, the overall style of the imperial capital is magnificent and heavy, with patrolling soldiers walking back and forth on the streets, and the flag of the empire can be seen flying on the high city walls in the distance.
It was a true military powerhouse and the center of imperial power and power.
Shiloh slowly raised his hand and clenched it into a fist, a gesture that would normally give him a sense of strength and control. Now it's a little empty.
The banquet in the winter was the first point in his life, and he became a world-renowned craftsman, mastering the coveted position of patriarch of the family.
But that banquet soon turned into his nightmare.
After losing to that banquet first, it was like Yi who had evaporated from the world.
After that, he was slapped by Long Qiqi in an invisible slap!
Shiloh didn't even remember what kind of mood and reaction he had when those words came out of Long Qiqi's mouth. The fiancΓ©e of the new leader of the Twelve Round Tables, who said in public that he was already another man who was not really an adult, how Shiloh wished it was just a stupid joke, because he felt that his current self was a pitiful and pathetic joke in the eyes of people!!
Shiloh originally liked green very much, and thought that this color was warm and deep, but the last thing he dared to see now was the green color!
At this time, Shiloh suddenly remembered that Kaka, the doorman of Phoenix Academy, had planned to teach a good lesson after the masquerade banquet, but then he couldn't take care of it.
"Kaka...... Easy...... And the hellish Caesar......" Shiloh muttered the names of three of them, which were actually one person, "and you had better pray that I don't find them." I, Shiloh, swear I'll tear you all to pieces!"
Shiloh, who had almost never lost his temper in front of people, had only resentment and resentment on his face at the moment, which distorted his handsome face.
If he saw his current expression, he would probably be shocked.
It's like a devil.
"Someone. Shiloh suddenly raised his voice and called a servant, "Go and prepare, I'm going out for a walk." β
Hu Cong knows his master's temper, and Shiloh is very good at controlling himself, so he rarely says that he wants to "scatter his mind", once he says such a thing, it is not an ordinary outing.
"Where are you going, to the Scarlet Hunting Ground to the north, or to the Colosseum?"
Shiloh said coldly, "I'm going to the Alcana. I'm going to...... Fight!"
Hu Cong's body was shocked, and he bowed down and said, "Okay, I'll go to handle the relevant documents immediately." β
Shiloh is not only a god craftsman, nor is he more than a patriarch, all the strong men of the empire have a common identity, that is, imperial soldiers.
Shiloh is a medalist, a soldier of the Third Order.
It wasn't long before Shiloh was sent to Boling's desk to go to the most dangerous Alcana to "relax".
Boling glanced at it, then frowned and muttered.
"Isn't it too dangerous?" asked the secretary next to him in a low voice.
Everyone knows what the Arcana is, where the fighting has never been extinguished for a hundred years, and there are only two kinds of people who will go there, the unlucky ghosts who are passively assigned to the past, and the other are the madmen who voluntarily risk their lives for thrills.
With a mortality rate of more than seventy percent every year, it is often difficult for even the bravest Imperial soldiers to muster the courage to choose to go on their own initiative.
Shiloh's current identity and status, how can he be easily suspected?
Unexpectedly, Bolin thought about it for a long time, and finally let out a sigh and said calmly: "Let him go." β
