Infinite crossing from violet

Chapter 22 022: Suspicion

No, no, it's an exaggeration to say Gundam.

However, there are always two or three meters of the humanoid machine, which can be regarded as a small Gundam.

What the hell?

A series of question marks appeared in Lu Ye's heart, just like Yasuo's teammates when they were 0-27-0.

Isn't the setting of "Violet Evergarden" a World War I reference?

Speaking of World War I, didn't everyone scurry around in the trenches with steel helmets and big bolts?
How come there is a Doll Gundam here?

Am I misunderstanding World War I or are you misunderstanding World War I?

How did this, this technology tree work? !
He felt a little cramp in his stomach because he had a whole lot of guts to throw up.

But calm down and take a closer look.

You will find that these "Gundams" are not like the ones in the anime, with handsome paint and particle cannon weapons.

It is only more than two meters high. If you look carefully, it is actually just a larger iron shell with a heavy body. Through the gaps, you can vaguely see the brass bearings and dense copper tubes inside. The copper tubes are used for heat dissipation. Yes, with such a dense copper tube, the heat emitted must be amazing.

The outer carapace of this "mecha" seems to be a protective plate, but the inner structure cannot be seen more.

If there is no black technology, referring to the technology tree of this era, its power should come from the steam engine.

But even though it doesn't look like a Gundam, it still looks creepy.

The face seems to use a sliding mask, leaving only a small gap for the eyes, like a PSH-style heavy armor helmet used by the former Soviet Union.

There are more or less dents on it, which must be bomb craters, and the broken parts are forcibly welded together with alloys. The whole face seems to have been torn and stitched, which is extremely terrifying.

Looking at it this way, there is no high-tech feeling, but a steampunk-like sense of sight.

But before he figured out what was going on, the leading officer came to Lu Ye and took off his military cap to salute.

He was a man of considerable age, with silver-gray hair combed back, and an aged face criss-crossed with scars.

One of the most eye-catching scars is from the upper left forehead to the lower right lip, almost spanning the entire face, and the wound is still concave, which means that the flesh on the face did not grow back. Very stimulating to the visual nerves.

However, it is worth mentioning that this action of his is not a military salute, but the etiquette of the nobles in the upper class of Leidenschaftrich.

"Sorry to bother you, and thank you for your generosity."

His voice was hoarse, like a crow undulating in a cemetery.

"...Let's talk after you come in, it's still raining outside."

Lu Ye made way sideways, and everyone squeezed into the room, and the small space suddenly became crowded.

Everyone huddled around the bonfire, and Lu Ye brought smoked mutton, which was skewered on the branches, sizzling with oil.

After adding some firewood piled up in the corner of the house, the bonfire burned more vigorously.

There were five people who entered the room. Among them, except for the leading officer, Lu Ye only knew one character from Dieter Fritter's original work.

The other three people did not know each other, but according to Dieter Fleet's previous words, they were all above the rank of non-commissioned officer.

"Admiral Ossinlide, those brothers in the backyard..." Dieterfleet whispered.

"Oh, I'll go get them a fire, or they might catch a cold the next day." Lu Ye reached out to grab the firewood with exposed handles in the campfire.

There is a piece of sheepskin in his arms, if it is slightly wrapped around it, the fire will not be extinguished.

Otherwise, in this kind of storm, a torch of this level would not be able to reach the sheepfold at all.

"There's no rush." ​​Osinlide said flatly, "They need a little time to adjust their status, and it will be fine in a while."

Lu Ye's half-stretched hand froze in the air, then slowly retracted.

He thought to himself that this old man is actually an admiral!

Logically speaking, shouldn't he let his soldiers also keep warm?

Otherwise, even soldiers, if they spend a night in such stormy weather, they will definitely catch a cold the next day.

Unless they are willing to take off their wet clothes and choose to lie in the arms of the sheep.

Is it because this general doesn't take care of his subordinates, or...there are several guns pointing at the front and back doors of the wooden house?
As if to confirm Lu Ye's guess, Violet tugged on his cuff unobtrusively.

This is to remind him that there is danger outside.

Cold sweat dripped from Lu Ye's forehead...

It's over, now Violet can't solve everyone.

Only bring some people into the house, and ask other soldiers with guns to put on a fighting posture outside. As long as there is any movement in the house, those soldiers with live ammunition will block the front and back doors of the house with black barrels. If Lite dared to act rashly, they dared to shoot.

Lu Ye was prepared for the fact that the old man didn't trust him.

But this old man is too cautious!

Violet and I seem so young and harmless, how could we harm you?
Thinking about it, Lu Ye quietly retracted the Broken Arrow in his arms.

He got up and went to the wooden box in the corner to fetch mineral water and biscuits, which were exchanged from the mall before.

"It was moved from a shipwrecked ship before, it was tightly sealed, and it hadn't been soaked in water."

"I'm really sorry, thank you again for your hospitality." Ossinlid greeted, "My name is Ossinlid Baletus."

"You don't need to do this. Everyone is from the island. It's right to help. My name is Lu Ye. The pronunciation isn't too strange, is it?"

"Are you also in a shipwreck?"

"Yes, more than two months ago, the passenger ship encountered a storm and sank into the sea. I originally wanted to visit the port of Leidenschaftrich. I heard that the scenery there is very beautiful and it is warm all year round. Chun... To be honest, I was really shocked when I saw you, I thought I would spend my whole life waiting to die on this island."

"Haha, if you want to go to the country of Leidenschaftrich, you can take our casual boat. There are more than 20 people on board who are doing water removal and emergency repair work on the boat. But at least within a week, the hull of the boat The repair work cannot be completed, so I and the rest of the people chose to go to the island to find shelter, and the boat is now full of water, and it cannot stay at all."

Lu Yexin relaxed a little.

The other party is probably willing to take him out of here?
But he wasn't sure, because Violet was still clutching his cuff, which meant that the crisis hadn't been resolved yet.

"However, your Western language is really good. A young Easterner can speak the language of Western countries so fluently. He is really a knowledgeable person."

There was a flickering fire in Osinlide's eyes.

"It's nothing. It's just that my elder brother married a Western woman. When they were newly married, they went to Western countries to play a few times. After they came back, they became interested in Western languages, so they taught themselves for a while."

Lu Yexin said that I knew you, a bad old man, didn't believe me!

You are too cautious!No matter how you look at it now, I am on the weak side!
Lu Ye complained furiously in his heart.

Whether it is equipment or numbers, the opponent has the upper hand.

It is indeed a good thing to be careful, but Lu Ye really has no ill intentions towards them, and only hopes that they can take him away from the island.

These guys will stay on the island for about seven days, and there is enough food on the island.

But perhaps because he had experienced too many battlefields, the old man didn't trust Lu Ye.

After all, life is too fragile, just stabbing the neck with a blade can take away a person's life.

Who can see through the essence of other people at the first sight of meeting?

Who can be sure they won't get wiped off their neck while sleeping?

This is an isolated island, surrounded by the sea, like a beautiful prison, but everyone has nowhere to escape.

Lu Ye understood Osinlide's worries.

So what he had to do was to make Osinlide let his guard down, that's all.

"This is...?" Osinlide asked.

He was referring to Violet, she was covered by a sheepskin raincoat, and no one could see her face clearly.

"It's my sister-in-law's younger sister, that is, the Western woman's younger sister. She's on the same boat as me...but she's a little shy and doesn't like to talk much." Lu Ye lied.

At this moment there was a knock on the door of the cabin.

After getting permission, a young soldier quickly entered, leaned over and whispered something in Osinlide's ear.

"Okay, let's leave it at that, Mr. Lu, the boys under me are almost adjusted, can I borrow some fire?"

"Of course." Lu Ye handed over the sheepskin.

Osinlide took the sheepskin, but did not pass it to the soldier.

"Go and call Ye Zhou over."

Lu Ye was taken aback.

Ye Zhou?

Oriental name?
