Eight hundred and ninetieth chapters camouflage on the road
"Do you have anything on you?" Baron Rudolf came to Cambay Town and directly met the three people mentioned in the order. After confirming their identities, he asked unceremoniously.
"The things are here, Your Excellency." Colin took out the box that his subordinates gave him two days ago and handed it to Baron Rudolf.
Baron Rudolf looked at the box curiously, wanting to take it and open it, but in the end he suppressed his curiosity and said: "Take the things, don't give them to me, we are leaving now."
After saying that, he turned and walked out of the room, while the knights behind him gathered around Colin and others, both to protect them and to monitor them.
After walking out of the house, Baron Rudolf separated Colin and his two men and placed them in two carriages respectively. Both carriages were protected by seven or eight cavalrymen from the Security Bureau.
"Go to Carlo Town." Baron Rudolf ordered the driver as he boarded his carriage.
The attendant who was following behind was stunned when he heard this. After getting in the car, he couldn't help but ask: "Isn't Kalu Town an abandoned mining town? What are you doing there?"
Baron Rudolf said in a deep voice: "There is a railway that transports ore directly to Beruchni. The train that transported the ore was still in use, but it was transformed into a freight train. It was purchased by the Crane family at full price and became a
The private railway owned by their family is not recorded on the empire's railway network, nor is its access restricted. We can take that train to Berukni, and then return to Donglin City from Berukni."
"The Crane family? That damn dirty family?" The attendant couldn't help but cursed.
"What? Does the Crane family have any grudge against you?" Baron Rudolph raised his eyebrows and asked.
The attendant said angrily: "I borrowed a sum of money from their bank some time ago, but the repayment was only three days late. They actually asked me to pay three times the interest on the grounds of breach of contract."
Baron Rudolf said with a serious look: "You should just exchange money honestly! At least their family still follows the rules. You yourself are late in repaying the loan. You can't blame others, not to mention that Earl Crane is now His Majesty's favorite, even if he is
The person above us didn't dare to cause trouble for him, so I had to endure any resentment and hold everything in my stomach. I didn't want to see your body appearing in the alley of the Imperial Capital that day."
The attendant said nothing more. Under the whip of the coachman, the carriage started slowly, gradually accelerated, and drove out of the town of Cambay. Not long after the group of people left the town of Cambay, several birds and beasts came from different places.
flew out of the house and disappeared into the sky.
In the carriage, Colin could not calm down for a long time and was still very nervous. He had no idea what the outcome of this review would be. He could only hope to get this strange thing from his two surviving men.
Things can help him overcome difficulties.
Compared to Colin's nervousness, the so-called avalanche survivors in the carriage behind seemed very calm. The moment they boarded the carriage, one of them had already performed a witchcraft and created an avalanche in the carriage.
A special soundproof space.
"It seems to be going well." The male member of the Special Operations Division suddenly said.
If Baron Rudolf were here at this time, he would definitely be surprised by the sound he heard, because the voice and language of this virgin member of the special operation are completely different from before, as if he was a different person.
"It should be caused by that bone." The female member also said in a completely different voice: "The review is just the most basic review. It seems that the people above him really want to see that thing as soon as possible."
The two special operations team members in the carriage were Leo and Sylvia in disguise. Through Colin's memory, they perfectly disguised themselves as the two dead members of the special operations team and became the avalanche.
They also harvested a strange object from the so-called cannibal mutant they captured.
For Leo and Sylvia, the first level has been passed, and the next step is to see the subsequent development after Winter City.
Sylvia raised the curtains of the car window a little, and saw the cavalry running alongside the carriage through the gap. Her eyes stopped for a moment on the badges on the cavalry, then lowered the curtains again and said: "They are not doing special operations.
The people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs are people from the Internal Affairs Department of the Imperial Security Bureau."
"Yeah." Leo didn't look very surprised, because just now he had heard through the mental network the conversation between Baron Rudolf and his valet in the carriage in front, and learned their identities from their conversation.
"Things may change unexpectedly." Sylvia said with some worry.
"It'll be okay." Although Leo didn't learn anything more from the conversation between Baron Rudolf and the attendant, he already knew their attitudes from the tone of their conversation, and told them about their current conversation.
Recited it to Sylvia.
Although the content of the conversation between the two did not involve matters related to them, Sylvia still heard some clues, smiled bitterly, and said: "It seems that we have encountered a power struggle within the empire.
." After saying that, she paused and said, "I'm afraid this matter is not over yet, we will still encounter some trouble."
"Why do you say that?" Leo asked.
Sylvia smiled and said: "The reason why the Special Operations Division pushed the Cambay Town matter to the Internal Affairs Department of the Security Bureau was because it was troublesome, but the thing we came up with reversed this situation.
In this situation, not only is there no fault, but there is credit, and judging from their attitude, the credit is still huge. Of course, the Special Operations Division will not be willing to just give the credit to the Imperial Security Bureau willingly, so it will definitely jump out to grab the credit.
At that time, our attitude will become the key to the matter." After saying that, she thought for a while and said: "But it doesn't matter, we won't be too involved in this matter, after all, the two of us pretending to be in positions are too low and not qualified enough.
, Colin is their focus, we just need to put all the credit on Colin."
Leo nodded when he heard this and said nothing more.
After a while, Sylvia suddenly said: "I should actually let Tessa stay, her ability can be of great help to us."
Two days ago, Sylvia contacted the spies of the United Kingdom lurking in the northern part of the empire, and sent Tessa Mocha and others away through a secret passage. Tessa Mocha said at the time that she could stay to help, but
Considering that she couldn't do a perfect disguise, Sylvia refused.
Now think about it, if Tessa Moka stays, she can also use other methods to send her near Donglin City to provide support when necessary.
However, it is too late to think of this now. Judging from the time, the secret passage has been activated, and the people who were sent away should have entered the process of returning home.
Compared with Sylvia's pity, Leo had an indifferent attitude and said: "If something really happens, she may not be able to play a supporting role, and she will take you to run away alone.
It's a lot easier to run with two people."
Hearing Leo's words, Sylvia suddenly thought of something and asked: "Has your research on psychic wings produced results?"
Since mastering the psionic skill of psionic wings, Leo has been both satisfied and dissatisfied with the use of psionic wings. He is satisfied because the psionic wings give him a certain degree of flying ability, but he is dissatisfied with this kind of flight.
Ability has limits, it is not true flying.
In the universe, psykers can travel through the vacuum of the universe through their psionic wings and fight like fighter planes in the vacuum. However, Leo's psionic wings cannot fight effectively even in normal airspace, let alone fighting in a vacuum.
fighting.
Therefore, Leo has been studying psychic wings, looking for ways to allow him to fly in the air. Once he has the ability to fly, he will gain an absolute advantage when fighting against the enemy.
Sylvia also knew that Leo was researching a kind of flying ability. Although she didn't know what psychic skills were, she also understood that this ability was unique to Leo. She couldn't do anything to help him and could only help him.
When you are running out of inspiration, here are some suggestions that can inspire you.
However, she has always known that Leo's research on this ability has reached a bottleneck, and she doesn't know when it will be broken. But now, listening to Leo's words, his research seems to have made a breakthrough.
Faced with Sylvia's guess, Leo did not hide anything, nodded and said: "Yes, I have found a method. Although there is no experiment yet, the calculation module has been completed, so there should be no mistakes."
It is inappropriate to say that there was no experiment. When he was in the manor, he tried to use the improved psychic wings. The effect was very significant at that time. He was supported by the psychic wings and floated in the air. Because he had not used his full strength yet, he could not
He didn't know how fast and high it could fly, but he estimated that it wouldn't be a problem to carry a person up to a height of hundreds of meters.
Although Sylvia couldn't understand some of Leo's words and vocabulary, she could tell from Leo's tone that the other party had mastered the ability to fly, which was undoubtedly very good news for what they were about to do.
The sky has always been a restricted area for humans. Based on her understanding of the highest security arrangements in various countries, even the security arrangements of the Franz Palace focus mostly on the ground, with very little defense in the air.
Although things like airships have appeared now, the airships are so big that they can be seen from very far away, so the inertial thinking of the warning system over the years has not changed because of the appearance of this flying object.
Now that Leo can fly, even for short distances, the difficulty of entering and leaving the palace will be reduced to the limit.
This news also made Sylvia relax a little. After the two of them had a conversation about how to contact each other if they were placed in different places, they closed their eyes and rested.
The carriage traveled very fast and arrived at Calu Town in about half a day.
Just like those mining towns all over the world, when there are mines to mine in nearby mines, this town is very prosperous, even comparable to some large towns, but as the mineral deposits decrease and disappear, the town quickly
It declined and eventually became a dead town.
However, the situation in Kalu Town is slightly different, because its specialty here is not only iron ore, but also a high-grade wood called black wood. So now even if there are no mineral deposits in Kalu Town, the small town
The town is still able to survive through the logging industry.
The family that controls the logging industry in the town is the Crane family, the most famous commercial aristocrat in the French Empire. This family strongly supported Louis X when he was still a prince, but at that time Louis X had Rupert
With a legendary figure like Fitz, the Crane family was less conspicuous in Louis X's camp.
However, with the betrayal of Rupert Fitz, the Crane family became the most important economic minister of Louis X. After Louis X ascended the throne, the patriarch of the Crane family has been holding the important position of minister of finance.
, is one of the most trusted favors of Louis X. The Crane family has gradually expanded due to the emperor's favor. Although it is not the largest noble in the French Empire, it is definitely the richest noble in the French Empire.
After the mines in Kalu Town ceased production, the Crane family spent a lot of money to buy the logging rights in Kalu Town, the surrounding blackwood forest, and the railway that was originally used to transport ore directly to the city of Berukny.
Although this railway is already a private railway of the Crane family, according to the authority of the Imperial Security Bureau, it has the right to requisition trains on this railway.
After the convoy entered Kalu Town, it went directly to the train station, stopped a train that was about to transport timber, and then used the authority of the Security Bureau to recruit this train. It was said that it was a recruitment, but in fact it was just a few extra passengers.
They were just people and did not let the train unload the loaded timber, so the recruitment process was not blocked by the person in charge of the Crane family.
The only dissatisfied people might be the passengers who were going to take this train to Beruchni. In order to avoid any accidents, these people were all kicked off the train. Except for the driver of the train, there was no one else on the train.
Someone else.
As the train started slowly, Baron Rudolf and others also relaxed a little. In their opinion, the most dangerous time had passed, and they would be completely safe when they arrived in Beruchni a day later.
Although they were safe for the time being, Baron Rudolf still did not reduce the surveillance and protection on Leo and the others. After simply eating some food, he placed Colin, Leo and others in different carriages, and then let
Three cavalrymen were on guard inside and outside the carriage.
And he himself did not rest, but handed over the defense of the carriage to his attendant, and he went directly to the locomotive to monitor and protect the driver of the train.
