"Are you still complaining about me?" Marquis William paused for a long time before speaking slowly.

"Huh?" Hilton found that the topic of his father today was so jumpy, and his mind was spinning fast but it was difficult to keep up with his father's thinking. "I know that my father is all for my good, how dare I resent my father."

Marquis William sighed, "You are really like your mother, I once let you go to war, and I am very strict with your education, even cruel. I have forced you and your brothers to take charge of the execution of the captives, and you have your hands covered in blood. ”

Hilton didn't know what his father was going to say, so he could only remain silent. "These are all for you, in fact, I regretted it at the beginning, you are the same as your mother, no matter how proud you are on the surface, you are a gentle person in your heart. But in this day and age, gentleness may also be a fault. ”

Hilton heard the key from his father's words, "What is happening in the country?" Marquis William did not answer, but continued to himself, "I sent you to the south, I just didn't want you to be involved, but I didn't think about making people worse." ”

"It turns out that my father doesn't dislike me and thinks I'm overwhelmed...... "Hilton's knot over the years has finally untied a little." Anyway, you're my son, magic or military prowess, I still want you to be happy. ”

The carriage came to a slow halt at the entrance of a seemingly abandoned station that was no less in size than the one in the center of Philemerald.

It's several times larger than the station Hilton had seen in Carlstream, just a lot more rudimentary, with huge steel frames supporting the dilapidated station, and it seems like no one has been there for a long time.

In the distance, a power locomotive clattered past the rusty tracks and clucked into the station. Marquis William and Hilton got out of the car, and Marquis William stood in front of Hilton and sorted out Hilton's clothes.

"I am cruel to you, I am afraid that you will not adapt in the future, son, I can only accompany you here, just treat it as a father who is incompetent, I'm sorry for you and your mother."

Hearing this, Hilton felt more and more panicked, and this conversation was more like a parting last word, "No, father, don't say that, we still have a long, long time to get along in the future, isn't my son already back?" ”

Marquis William didn't answer, and used the last time to tell Hilton, "Remember, you've already seen that thing, they won't let you go so easily, be careful on the rest of the road, I'll wait for you at home to come back." ”

Hilton probably guessed what it was, but who were they? Everything seemed like a huge swamp ready to swallow him at any moment.

Suddenly, the iron doors in front of him opened one by one, and a group of soldiers walked out of the station, led by an officer wearing a black uniform, with a sign on his body that Hilton had never seen, but he knew that it was definitely not the sign of his father's border guards.

"Your Excellency, Marquis, I have been ordered to take Sir Hilton away."

"It's hard work, be careful on the road."

The officer was just a little polite, and then took Hilton to board the power locomotive. Under Hilton's gaze, his father became farther and farther away from him. The rails are moving diagonally down a passage in front of them, and are they going deep underground?

When they saw the light again, they arrived at a station platform. The platform is located dozens of meters underground, with a row of rails on each side, and next to the rails is a platform, and a rumbling sound echoes in the depths of the underground tunnel.

The officer led Hilton off the platform and walked inside, "How much do you know about the Papal State?" After walking for a few minutes, the officer suddenly spoke.

Hilton was stunned for a moment, the officer didn't turn his head to look at him, he didn't know who the officer was talking to.

"Don't look at it, I'll just ask you again." Although the officer didn't look back, he probably guessed Hilton's confused expression at this time.

"I've been in school for a few years in the Papal State, but I don't know much about it......" Hilton said a few beads of sweat on his head, and although the temperature was very low underground, he didn't know which question could lead to death.

"A fool, or a child of the army, has no intelligence literacy at all." The officer did not hesitate to comment on Hilton with all kinds of sharp words.

"I'm going to school, not a spy......" Hilton retorted quietly......

"Then you have come into contact with the people of the three major families in school, what do you know about them?" The officer hesitated for a moment and thought of a breakthrough.

"I remember it was the Borgias, the Colonna, the Orsines?" Hilton replied tentatively. "There is no need to hesitate on such a simple question." The officer casually embarrassed Hilton again.

Even in the Papal State, no one in St. Carlius College dared to reprimand Hilton so repeatedly.

"How much do you know about the information of the three major families?" The officer repeated the second half of the sentence he had just said. "The Colonna family is an industrial giant, they have countless factories, casting armor, daily necessities, sewing clothes, and even tools and machinery for cultivating farmland."

"Go on." The officer still didn't look back.

"The Orsini family made their fortune in the financial industry and held the economic lifeblood of the world, and they asked them to mint the cheques they wrote, the gold and silver coins they minted, and even the currencies of the three major families and even other countries. The Orsini family and the Colonna family are still feuding. ”

"What about the Borgias?"

Hilton hesitated for a moment. "There are no Borgia family members in my school, not even the side ones...... All I know is that even if the other two are in control of industry and finance, they will still be overwhelmed by the Borgia family. ”

"Why?" "Because of the power heart. The Borgia family owns and controls the most important crafting technology, the process of making the power heart, which has not been copied by any family in various countries until now, and we still don't know what it is powered by. ”

The officer sighed, "Yes, if one day the patriarch of the Borgia family gets nervous and stops selling power hearts or rather, no more making new power sources, our lives will come to a standstill now, and maybe civilization will go back hundreds, no, even thousands of years." ”

"But from today onwards, all of this will be history." After the officer said this, the road finally came to an end, and he pushed open the door, and the dazzling light made Hilton extremely uncomfortable...... It's an underground city!

In the middle of the whole complex, there is a tall tower, more like a chimney? Or boilers. The officer pointed to the building and said to Hilton, "From now on, we have our own heart of motivation."
