my wife is a consul

Chapter 912 The Road to the Demon King

As Lu Ming thought, the infantry regiment that Elizabeth chose to go to the Tianhe Gate was the First Guards Regiment of the Prague Legion, which was her personal regiment.

The Prague Legion is one of the two main legions guarding the northern frontier of the principality.

The two legions are the two standing national defense forces of the principality. The rest of the armed forces are local armed forces and militias in the autonomous territories. They have limited combat capabilities and are not standing armies.

The Prague Army has two infantry divisions and one light cavalry division, with a full strength of more than 30,000 men.

After all, although the Northern Czech Principality is a superior principality, its population has dropped to about two million. It can maintain a standing army of 60,000, which is already overloaded.

Therefore, the Prague Legion actually cultivates its own fields and is now preparing to set up factories. It is like a traditional Eastern military household, with generations of professional soldiers, rather than recruited mercenaries or conscripts.

……

It has been a few days since the small train arrived in Tianhe City, and it will still take a few days for the First Guards Regiment to gather here.

Tianhe City has a population of more than 50,000, and there are thousands of traders. The entire small city is in the style of a border town in the Napoleonic era, with narrow streets and sparse houses of various two- and three-story brick and wood structures. The busiest streets are commercial Street, where the Duchy’s tax collector’s office is also located.

The City Hall and the City Council are an inconspicuous two-story wooden building next to the central square. The police station (police cavalry) and the municipal court are also in this small building.

The small train was parked in the small square, attracting many people to watch. Even in the evening, more and more citizens came to watch the excitement. The chief of police had to deploy dozens of police officers here to prevent the Countess of Czechburg and the Legion. The magical vehicle that the commander and a high-ranking female official of the province was traveling in was damaged by a crowd of spectators, and more precautions were taken to prevent the evil faction close to the Northern Kingdom from causing trouble. Although there was no war in Tianhe, in the past two years, it seemed that the religion of the Northern Kingdom had been introduced. They formed Secret organizations secretly opposed the rule of the principality here. In the Northern Czech Principality, this underground organization was called the traitor party.

It can be seen that the chief of police is under a lot of pressure. After all, there are less than a hundred police officers in the entire city. Now half of them are assigned here, and the security of other neighborhoods will be under pressure. It is also when the countess comes to inspect, and if the traitors cause chaos , definitely choose this time.

Fortunately, Her Majesty Elizabeth came here without prior notice, so even if the traitor party had a conspiracy, it would not happen today.

From the car window, Lu Ming looked at the police sergeant named Paul who was wearing a tall black hat. Seeing his anxious face, Lu Ming smiled. This guy was very interesting.

He still has a little secret.

However, Lu Ming was thinking about all kinds of things.

In the language of the Lionheart Empire, countess and female high official are separate words. This is also because the patriarchal society is deeply rooted.

Of course, if you become a countess, you can't just think of it as a woman. After all, if you get married, the man will marry into the family, and the descendants will inherit the bloodline and surname of the female noble family.

On the other hand, there is no separate word for legion commanders if they are women. This is because female commanders are very rare in the history of the empire.

"Master, Master Huiyan noticed abnormal fluctuations in the crowd and has already locked the target." Dibaya came to Lu Ming's side.

"Master Wisdom Eyes" is Guiying who has transformed into a brain. The slave collar is connected to it and has many functions. It also has a radar-like scanning function, and there are various types of scanning, such as energy fields, not third parties, etc. Items that can be created by human technology in the mainland, human life forms that have universe inside, weapons that can cause great damage in this world, etc. will be marked as abnormal.

It sounds like the anomaly discovered this time is some kind of energy field.

At this time, Dibaya's collar emitted a screen of light, which was an image of the crowd watching the excitement outside. Among them, a middle-aged man who looked ordinary was marked as a dangerous object. He was probably in his forties, and he should be wearing Clothes and pants similar to a tuxedo, but very worn and patched.

Lu Ming nodded slightly: "You handle it."

……

When he woke up the next morning, after washing and having breakfast, Lu Ming found a dark necklace on his hand. The pendant of the necklace was in the shape of a god holding the sun with both hands. The whole pendant gave off a strange aura.

This is the object emitting abnormal energy fluctuations scanned by the brain.

Last night, Lu Ming traveled around the first and second continents, while Di Baiya led several secret assassins to destroy the local traitor's lair like lightning.

He followed the man with the evil god's necklace hidden in his clothes and found his party lair.

Several key members of the traitor party discussed plans to assassinate Countess Elizabeth, but they were all captured by Debaya.

The pendant of this necklace is the image of the northern sun god. In the Lion Heart Empire, it belongs to the evil god.

Obviously this is not an ordinary pendant. When Dibaiya and others suddenly appeared, the holder of this necklace was holding the necklace and mumbling something. A black three-headed vicious dog appeared in the void, but Dibaia's slave necklace emitted light waves, which was very bright. Disintegrate it quickly.

The result of brain analysis shows that the image of the vicious dog at that time was only scary, not condensed into a solid body, but a refraction of light that caused an illusion to the naked eye.

When Di Baiya pulled off the necklace from the neck of the traitor leader, he was also horrified.

According to his confession afterwards, this "artifact" could not be seen by mortals, so he dared to wear it openly on his chest.

Lu Ming looked at the necklace and nodded. Indeed, Prince Styx or his servants and cronies had just added some small magic. If it were a real magical power, it would be difficult to activate it in this area where Prince Styx's divine origin was extremely excluded.

However, although it is only a small method, its magic is enough to confuse mortals and make them believe in the true god of the north.

This is also the reason why there are more and more traitor parties across the border. The leaders of the traitor party branches probably all have this so-called "artifact", and most of the supporters they have gathered for development have also seen the "miracles" performed by the artifact. .

Of course, their own situation is also key.

For example, the leader of the traitorous party in Tianhe City originally had a wealthy family, but suffered great changes and fell into disrepute. He was dissatisfied with society. As a result, he was bewitched by northern missionaries and became a believer in a northern sect.

Both the north and the south believe in the sun god, but they all believe that the sun god they believe in is the true god.

"Oh, that Chief Paul, I want to see him." Lu Ming said.

Debaya bowed and took the order and left.

……

In less than half an hour, Chief Paul stood respectfully in front of Lu Ming, holding the tall black round police hat on his chest. Before getting into the car, he took off his hat, as if he was entering the palace of the most noble noble. Mansion.

"Master Yuanhou, I originally wanted to express my gratitude to you, but I didn't dare to invite you..." Sheriff Paul said respectfully.

Last night, Dibaya handed over all the prisoners to him.

Paul was greatly shocked. Who would have thought that Lord Yuan Hou had just arrived in the local area and eradicated the local traitorous party organizations and killed several leaders in one go?

What he said was true. Although he wanted to express his gratitude, the Marquis of Yuan was a big shot from the imperial capital. I heard that he had a similar status to the Duke and the Lord. The Lord even asked for help from him, including the female high-ranking official of the province and the Countess of Czechburg. How could he be called uncle by a little night watchman in a remote place?

"Oh, I heard that you are a winged human being?" Lu Ming looked at Paul and asked suddenly.

Paul's eyes widened immediately, with a look of horror on his face. No one in the local area knew about his secret, and his useless burden had been cut off at a very young age.

But despite this, he has remained single to prevent the people closest to him from discovering the huge scar on his back.

But at this moment, when he heard the sudden identification of the young nobleman in front of him, he was extremely shocked, and a huge fear surged in his heart. His mind was buzzing, as if he was having the most terrible nightmare.

Lu Ming smiled and waved his hand: "Don't be afraid, this secret will not be leaked! Well, when did you come here?"

"I, ten, ten years ago..." Paul said casually, even his own voice seemed very distant, and he just responded to the other party's questions mechanically.

"Oh..." Lu Ming glanced at him, "You are about thirty years old now, that is, you were already a teenager when you came to this place. Did you escape directly from the north?"

"Yes……"

"Then you remember what happened in the Asuka Principality. Tell me about it."

The Yiren Principality is still very mysterious to the Lionheart Empire.

Although Zhinao sent out drones for reconnaissance, they did not go deep into the hinterland of the Asuka Principality. Moreover, they mainly operated on the fringes. The topographic maps they photographed did not involve its social structure, folk customs, etc.

Paul finally looked up and saw Lu Ming's kind smile, feeling a little relieved.

Although I don't know what the final fate awaits me, I can only resign myself to fate, let alone deceive the Lord Yuan to avoid self-defeating.

"I, I used to live across the Tianhe Gorge. Our family is all hunters. There was a sudden flash flood thirteen years ago..." He glanced at Lu Ming, "Marquis Yuan probably didn't know that at that time, there were heavy rains on both sides of the Tianhe Gorge day and night. , the disaster was very serious, so when I escaped, even though I was helpless, I was still taken in by this town, thinking that I was a disaster victim from other places. "

Lu Ming nodded slightly.

"When the flash flood broke out, I saw my parents swallowed by the mudslide. I was also swept away by the flood and rushed into the Tianhe River. I must have been lucky. When I woke up, I was already on this side of the Tianhe River. I vaguely remember that I caught it. A piece of dead wood..."

"After hiding in the mountains for a while, I hunted furs and sold them here one day. I gradually became familiar with the people here. Later, I went to live in the city and was recruited as a night watchman. Until now..."

"When I first came to this side of the river, I wanted to swim back several times, but in the end I ran out of energy. Once I almost drowned in the Tianhe River, so I had no choice but to accept my fate!"

Looking at Lu Ming: "Master Yuanhou! I am really not a spy. You may not believe what I said, and I don't believe it myself, but they are all true..."

"I believe it!" Lu Ming smiled.

Paul was stunned.

"If you were a spy, you would naturally have prepared a set of excuses after being exposed. How could you have such a lame story? But real things are often not so bizarre." Lu Ming said with a smile. It is natural to know at a glance whether an ordinary person like this is lying.

"Then..." Paul hesitated, wanting to ask about his fate and what Marquis Yuan would do with him, but he felt that it was not his place to ask.

"Do you still want to go back to your hometown? Tell the truth." Lu Ming stared at him.

Paul was a little hesitant. He knew that now he should say categorically that he didn't want to.

Here, for more than ten years, his life has been very comfortable, and his material conditions are far better than those he once lived as an Orion in his hometown.

But, do you really not want to go home?

At night, the loneliness of not having a true family member would torture his heart all the time.

What's more, I didn't see the bodies of my parents after all, so I really wanted a miracle to happen.

"Oh, you don't need to answer. Let's do this. I'll take you back." Lu Ming smiled slightly: "You should have a lot of unfinished things on your mind. I'll take you there. When you have fulfilled those wishes, you will decide whether to stay or go. You decide."

ah? Paul's eyes widened in surprise.

He is a member of the enemy's country. Shouldn't the Lord Yuan decide where his heart is? How could he easily say that he could choose to stay in the enemy's country or return to his hometown?

As for the difficult natural chasm, it is not important at this time.

As if he knew what he was thinking, Lu Ming nodded: "In my opinion, war and the like have little to do with you, not to mention that the Bird Principality, the Lion Heart Empire and the Prague Province have nothing to do with each other." He then said, "Are you ready? Get ready, we'll go over there tonight, and I'll help you find an excuse to ask for leave."

"Oh..., okay, okay..." Paul agreed, but his mind was actually in confusion.

……

Late at night, a silent, science-fiction-like vortex-powered helicopter sent Lu Ming and others to the edge of a valley opposite the Tianhe Gorge.

Lu Ming showed Paul the map drawn by the drone. Paul believed that the valley at this location was the settlement where he originally lived.

But now Paul is in a state of confusion throughout the whole process.

In fact, for him, airships, ordinary propeller helicopters and future helicopters that have not been developed on this first continent are probably similar in nature. They are all magical flying machines. He does not understand that these three types of things are completely different eras. The product, the helicopter he was riding today, would probably take four to five hundred years to be developed if the continent's technology develops normally.

Lu Ming only brought three servants, Sister Bai Ling and Di Baiya.

Moreover, the Dharmakaya completely confines his divine source, so that no divine source aura will be leaked. The help of technological products will be used throughout the process to avoid being noticed by the Prince of Styx.

And even if they are discovered, there are only three servants, even if Paul is added, he can release his source power and take them back to the opposite side of Tianhe Gorge in an instant.

"Oh, everything has changed here!" Paul looked at the valley ahead, with dense weeds and no trace of human habitation.

The flash floods that year probably changed the local terrain.

Therefore, even if Lu Ming told Paul that he hid the conditions such as drone reconnaissance and just told him that there were no people here, he still insisted that this was his hometown.

Looking back at Lu Ming, Paul was a little embarrassed.

"It's okay." A flying car gradually appeared next to it.

Lu Ming has imprisoned his divine source and lost contact with Longyuan Realm. Therefore, the flying car was not summoned from Longyuan Realm (early storage ring), but has been following the helicopter. After arriving here, he followed Next to a group of people, just invisible.

Paul was already numb when he saw this scene, and he followed Lu Ming's instructions and got into the car.

Both Dibaya and the Speedy Intelligent System immediately scanned for the activity of human-shaped red dots more than ten kilometers to the northwest, which looked like five or six people.

After discussing for a while.

With a whoosh, the speeding car moved more than ten kilometers in an instant and stopped behind a grass hill. You could even hear the humans talking. They must have come to hunt some flying bears.

In the Principality of Asuka, it is normal for animals to have wings. For example, the flying bear is a small black bear that can use its fleshy wings to glide.

A light screen popped up inside the flying car, and the images of those people appeared.

The Winged Hunters, all wearing linen clothes and trousers, were five young men and women. They had shotguns and steel forks in their hands.

Lu Ming and others are now wearing linen clothes that are common among local hunters, and Bai Ling and Diba Ya are all simulated using holographic projection technology. They look like very ordinary Orion women, while Lu Ming is an With a lean body, a dark complexion, and calluses on his hands, he looked like a hunter who had been hanging out in the mountains all year round.

"Get out of the car!" As Lu Ming spoke, the car door opened automatically.

When Lu Ming got out of the car, he had a homemade shotgun in his hand. The three maids also had weapons in their hands. The Bai Ling sisters all had steel forks in their hands. Of course, they were actually mimicking lightsabers.

The lightsabers in their hands are originally a combination of technology, wisdom and divine origin. Moreover, for Prince Styx, this source of power is so weak that it can be ignored. Therefore, they are not too worried about being sensed by Prince Styx, who is thousands of miles away. .

In Dibaya's hand is a shotgun and a firecracker, which are also holographic mimics, but are actually energy guns with a range of up to ten kilometers.

The dagger hanging on her waist is the kind of drone that carries four super bombs.

Paul doesn't need mimicry, the gun in his hand is real.

Turning around from the grassy hill, Paul shouted something loudly.

Several hunters on the opposite side immediately began to howl, and judging by the sound, it was a happy response.

Paul ran over quickly and soon hugged those people warmly.

But it shouldn't be a matter of mutual acquaintance, but a special etiquette between winged hunters.

The other party should not suspect anything. After all, they are separated by a natural chasm. The Yiren Principality seems to be on the border, but in fact it has never encountered enemy trouble, let alone spies.

At this time, Paul turned around and screamed at Lu Ming and others.

It was all a well-discussed plan, and they lied to these people that they were hunters from the "Harrison Gro" forest, and they came here because they were following the civet, but the civet was gone.

"Harrison Gro" forest is more than a hundred miles away, and there is a huge settlement.

Paul had heard the story of that settlement since he was a child.

Judging from the drone reconnaissance images, that settlement still exists.

Several people on the other side were extremely enthusiastic and introduced themselves one after another.

Four men and one woman, five hunters, four young male hunters, kept looking at Sister Bai Ling and Di Baiya secretly with hot eyes.

Paul shook his head when he saw it. Although several of Yuan Hou's maids had magically changed their appearance, they were still very beautiful beauties, weren't they? It's just that Marquis Yuan doesn't think so. Maybe there are too many beautiful beauties around him, so his eyes have long been different from those of ordinary people. A male hunter on the other side seemed to be the leader of this small group of young hunters, named Porter. He enthusiastically invited several distant guests to visit their settlement.

Lu Mingzi readily agreed.

Paul couldn't hold his temper. He followed Porter and the others for a few steps before asking, "I remember there was a settlement nearby. When I was a kid, I went hunting with my father and we also went far away. Have you been here before?"

Porter sighed, "You should be talking about 'Bolivar'. When I was a child, some refugees suddenly came to the village. The elders said that they were all brothers and sisters from Bolivar. It should have been more than ten years ago. "Later I heard that a flash flood submerged the entire settlement, and the survivors are now villagers in our village."

Paul was stunned for a moment, his eyes suddenly became fiery. Although he suppressed the excitement in his heart, his pace inevitably accelerated.

However, he was stunned for a moment. If he really met his old friend and could recognize him, the lie just now would be exposed.

Lu Ming smiled and said at this time: "Paul, you come here to find your relatives. Just say it clearly. We are all brothers and sisters under the starry sky. Why are you so cautious?" He said to Porter: "My brother Paul was once a member of Paul One of the members of Livar, who was young at the time, was swept down the river by a flash flood. He later drifted to Harrisongro and was rescued by them. However, my eldest brother was hit on the head by a stone and forgot where he came from. He didn’t recall the past until last year. He wanted to come back to look for his relatives, but he didn’t dare because Brother Paul’s parents were also involved in a mudslide at that time..."

After hearing this, Porter and others looked at Paul with sympathetic eyes. Porter patted his shoulder, "My good brother,..." He sighed, not knowing how to comfort him.

After seven or eight miles of journey, hunter cabins gradually appeared on the edge of the sparse forest in the foothills.

Households in settlements on the Third Mainland Plain are often very scattered, and they all build houses near their own farms. The center of the settlement may have more buildings, including shops.

Fishing and hunting settlements are also where hunters of three relatives and two friends are scattered together, and everyone will meet to go hunting.

The same is true for this settlement called "Bolivia". Fishermen live scattered in the valleys and lakes.

The farmland in the valley is dotted with farm families, and their houses are built near their own farmland.

Orions gather in groups of three, five, or five or six families.

The large, dark, flat-roofed wooden house in the center of the settlement. The noise inside can be heard from the outside. Judging from the flags hanging, it is a complex of "Hunters' Guild", "Tavern", "Grocery Store" and so on.

The Asuka Principality is not a feudal system, but a "King's Guild System" that Lu Ming has never seen in his previous life.

The Grand Duke of Asuka, or the King of Asuka Principality, manages the principality jointly with many guilds.

Moreover, guilds are basically service-oriented organizations.

For example, the Hunters Guild in Bolivia functions as a trading post, purchasing furs, animal meat, etc., while selling daily necessities from the outside, including hunting equipment, shotguns, ammunition, etc.

Disputes between hunters, crimes committed by hunters, etc. are also adjudicated by the guild, but in the case of crimes, three local jurors who are not interested parties are selected by lot to vote on whether the defendant is guilty or not together with the guild president who acts as the judge. The president has two votes, plus the three jurors have a total of five votes, and the voting result is a simple majority.

However, the local settlements together only have five to six hundred people, and the Hunter Guild only has two outsiders, a president and an auditor.

The two usually work part-time as bar owners, waiters, sales assistants, etc.

In the more than two years since the fat president came to Bolivia, he has never had the experience of serving as a criminal judge, and he has not even resolved disputes a few times.

Also because some hunters follow the ancient tradition of hunting forks, some disputes will be resolved privately.

Lu Ming knew all this from the mouth of Bo Luodong, the fat guild president in front of him.

Porter and others took Paul to look for survivors of the previous settlement. Lu Ming and the three girls were introduced to this bar to have a drink and take a break.

Lu Ming tasted the very strong ale, and the conversation quickly became lively with Boluodong, who immediately joined in.

Boluodong can leave this remote country in half a year, but the closer the rotation time is, the more uncomfortable he feels.

When he talked about the prosperous "Nantes", he was full of longing and told everything about it.

In fact, it sounds like Nantes is only a small city with a population of 40 to 50 thousand people. It should be the largest town in the Asuka Principality near the Tianhe Gorge.

The Hunters' Guild is a very disadvantaged small guild in the Principality. After all, there are more than two million people in the Principality, and the proportion of hunters is only about 2%. Even fishermen are classified as hunters.

That is to say, those that fly in the sky, those that run on the ground, and those that swim in the water. Those who mainly make a living by catching these are the hunters.

Many hunter settlements also have a small amount of farmland, but this does not affect their classification as hunters.

On the contrary, those in the plain area who occasionally go hunting and catch a few wild rabbits are still farmers and are under the management of the agricultural guild. However, the president of the farmers' association will be the Grand Duke's affairs officer, because the entire land of the principality, They are all public and private in name.

Lu Ming and Bo Luodong chatted casually, and in a short period of time, they had a preliminary understanding of the social structure of the Asuka Principality.

……

There are three tree houses hanging high and low on the towering tree. They are all brand-new wooden houses that were newly built and exude the fragrance of wood.

Sister Bai Ling and Di Baiya were arranged to live in the highest wooden house, while Lu Ming and Paul lived in the middle wooden house.

The wooden houses built on the ground under the giant trees are used for dining, activities, etc.

The five of them, Lu Ming, were all sitting on the wooden floor eating, roasting some kind of wild animal meat and some kind of pasta steamed buns.

This group of wooden houses was newly built by a relatively wealthy family in a Bolivian settlement, and it happened to be provided to five people for free.

However, it is obvious that two of the younger members of this family have reached the age of marriage or are about to reach the age of marriage, and they are only deliberately trying to please the beauties among these distant guests.

The current meal was also brought by the older of the two, a boy of eighteen or nineteen. He was very shy and never dared to look up at the three Bai Ling sisters. After delivering the meal, he hurriedly ran away, probably What a waste of the kindness of the elders in the family.

Paul was in a bad mood and bit into his buns.

I met some survivors from my hometown, but those who had a good relationship with his family and lived relatively close to each other at the time were mostly buried directly by mudslides, and almost none survived.

Not to mention his parents. Although he knew the outcome a long time ago, he must still have fantasies. He has not come back to find relatives for so many years. Although it is really difficult to come back, the fear of facing the cruel facts is also one of the reasons.

The only survivor of his family was a cousin, but Paul and that cousin were not that close before. The cousin had remarried after fleeing to Bolivia, so she basically had nothing to do with him.

It only proved his identity.

Bolivia, in free translation, is Sanlin Town.

Paul's ruined hometown of Bolivar is literally translated as Five Forest Town.

The settlements on the north bank of the Tianhe Gorge, which are managed by the Hunters Guild, are basically named after numerically sorted forest towns on the Hunters Guild's map.

The exception is "Harrison Gro", which Paul lied about being from, which is literally translated as "Maze Mountain". It is self-contained and has a cooperative relationship with the Hunter Guild. It means a bit of a country within a country. Its terrain is prominent and is very popular with outsiders. It is difficult to enter, but every few years the Hunters' Guild will select some young men and women to exchange the same number of young men and women with the Maze Mountain settlement. This ancient tradition naturally avoids the possibility of long-term inbreeding in a closed tribe.

At this time, Paul swallowed the steamed buns silently.

The three Bai Ling girls also ate in small bites, but their eyes were all focused on Lu Ming.

Lu Ming secretly shook his head. He originally brought the Bai Ling sisters here to see if there was any chance of using the Bai Ling sisters to perform a "miracle". Their beautiful wings could completely deceive the Winged People and tell them that this is what they are doing. In their ultimate form, the Ghost Sisters are messengers sent by the true God to guide them.

But looking at it now, the belief atmosphere of the Winged People is not strong, but very secular. They are not very interested in the God of Light of the Styx Religion. They are more like atheists, and they don’t think they are outcasts abandoned by gods. The pessimistic idea that they would give birth to deformed wings that are completely useless is more convinced by the evolutionary theory that was just born in this world. It is believed that they evolved from some kind of giant bird into humans, and their wings gradually became useless organs, and then gradually degenerated into what they are today. It looks similar to the appendix.

It should be that the theory of evolution will satisfy their psychological needs that all ethnic groups are inherently equal.

In fact, from the north of the Third Continent, the theory of evolution obviously cannot explain these many special ethnic groups, and there are no ancient fossils to support it. However, the Winged Human Race agrees with this theory out of necessity, so there is nothing they can do about it.

In short, it seems that it would be extremely difficult to use the Bai Ling sisters to promote "Angel God" here.

It’s time to think differently.

Lu Ming slowly drank from the clear spring in the cup. The water quality here was very good, and it was refreshing and refreshing.

……

Late at night, Lu Ming took an invisible speed car and returned to Marsh Town on the south bank of Tianhe Gorge.

Since I can't use the Immortal Gate to open the door, the Immortal Gate seems to be easy to come and go, and I don't feel any effort at all, but in fact it is an Immortal family magic that tears apart time and space. In the territory of the Styx Empire, even in the most peripheral areas, using this This kind of sacred level spell will definitely be sensed by Prince Styx.

"The people of the Asuka Principality are used to living a peaceful life. It would be harmful to Tianhe to use it as a breakthrough point. However, there is no harm in associating with them. Let it be an intelligence station there. I will station two assassins there for a long time to collect intelligence. ." Lu Ming said while thinking about it, the two assassins have the same image there as the Bai Ling sisters.

Elizabeth, who was sitting across from Lu Ming in the luxurious reception room of the small train, felt relieved. She crossed the natural chasm to attack the Bird Kingdom. She felt that this move was too dangerous. It would be difficult to supply supplies if the army went deep alone.

However, her pretty face was filled with embarrassment, "But, the First Guards Regiment is on the march and will reach Swamp Town in one day."

Lu Ming smiled: "Don't worry, I won't let you waste thousands of people in vain. I promised you to redress the first guard regiment, and I will definitely do it. I can also ensure that their weapons can rival the most elite ones in the Styx Empire." Guards."

Elizabeth blinked her green eyes, "Thank you, Marquis Yuan!"

Lu Ming's expression suddenly changed slightly, he covered his chest with his hands, his face turned pale, and he looked very uncomfortable.

Elizabeth was startled, "Marquis Yuan, what's wrong with you?"

Lu Ming slowly sat up straight. An assassin in charge of communications had already walked up quickly, knelt down on one knee, and reported something in a language that Elizabeth could not understand.

It was a large-scale attack launched by the Giant Tiger Principality in the South Czech Republic. It suffered a devastating blow from the "Death Star Point" on the northern front of Prague Province.

When Guiying is in the "intelligent brain" state, she is extremely ruthless, and destroying the enemy to the maximum extent is "her" logic.

Therefore, the Star Point Defense System did not launch an attack as soon as it discovered the enemy. Instead, it waited for the Giant Tiger Legion to advance across the board and all of them entered the attack range of the "Star Point Defense System" before suddenly launching a defense program.

The defense system even waited patiently for more than twenty hours.

All giant tiger soldiers and equipment within a radius of dozens of kilometers were evaporated by the death light in an instant.

Moreover, the star point system naturally records the number of kills accurate to single digits.

"23157", this is the death number of the giant tiger soldiers and generals at that moment.

The entire Giant Tiger Legion that invaded the south, except for some support troops, was almost completely wiped out.

Judging from this figure, the National Defense Force of the Southern Czech Republic lost about half in an instant, which should be the entire main force of the southern invasion.

They advanced in five lines in the mountains north of Prague. What they wanted was a sense of oppression, the terrifying feeling of a dense, full-line attack that made the enemy desperate. As a result, this made the star point defense system work to its maximum effect.

It is also because there are no weapons of mass destruction today, and the largest weapon is artillery. From the perspective of the scouts of the Giant Tiger Legion, the various positions assembled by the Legion are naturally still far away from the range of the Prague artillery defense system.

"On the northern border of Prague, the Giant Tigers launched an attack, but they were defeated by the Star Point Defense System." Lu Ming said calmly, but the discomfort in his chest was still very strong.

Although in the war between the gods in the East and the West, mortals are nothing. Millions and tens of millions of mortals may lose their lives due to natural disasters and plagues launched by the gods.

But probably it depends on the faeries themselves.

Lu Ming smiled bitterly in his heart. His source of immortality was to recognize the rule of compassion for heaven and earth as the principle of enlightenment. Of course, this was also a reflection of his own heart.

Over there, Elizabeth heard Lu Ming talk about the defense system and said, not paying much attention, thinking that it was just a small group of harassing guerrillas.

In a place hundreds of kilometers away from the front line, the fastest communication in the world today is homing pigeons. However, her army must not have the homing pigeons that are regularly trained to fly to the route of Swamp Town, so she is afraid that it will be a day before the signaling troops arrive. Reported.

"Let's go back to Prague." Lu Ming glanced at Elizabeth who wanted to speak, "We will be there soon, and it will not affect the change of uniforms of the First Guard Regiment."

Lu Ming's last words were what Elizabeth cared about the most. Since he made such a promise, everything else is up to you.

……

Several hundred kilometers and three hours by train, this was the speed Lu Ming set according to the psychological acceptance level of people in this world.

Elizabeth had not yet recovered from the high-speed shock, and the report from the arriving communications trooper shocked her even more.

The frontline checkpoint was removed by the opponent without anyone noticing.

However, some checkpoints in the southern part of the Star Point Defense System still existed, and signs were found that the Giant Tiger Legion was about to launch an attack across the board.

They noticed that the mountains, dense forests, and valleys suddenly became as bright as day. When they went to investigate afterwards, they also discovered that the giant tiger army had disappeared.

But he didn't know that the entire giant tiger army on the front line had evaporated along with their weapons and equipment.

Elizabeth also didn't know this, but it sounded incredible that the enemy's attack, which was probably launched in full force, was defeated without even getting past the star point defense system.

……

A few hours later, Elizabeth came to the front line on horseback and encountered the turning train.

Lu Ming's face in the car seemed to have returned to normal, and Elizabeth felt a little relieved.

"There's no problem with the defense system you set up for us, right?" On the way back to Prague, Marquis Yuan was uneasy. Elizabeth thought that although the star point defense system had defeated the giant tiger army, something serious had happened to her. question.

"No problem, it will continue to work." Lu Ming nodded.

Just now, he showed his great power and performed a ritual ceremony in that place filled with death light.

The roots of more than 20,000 giants have been turned into the gravel of the immortal mansion. After being trampled for tens of thousands of years, there is still a chance to re-enter the land where there is no life and become the source of life of that desolate world, that is, single-celled organisms and the like. Yes, it will eventually be possible to live out one's life with the experience of an intelligent creature.

The soul has no reincarnation, but it can imprison the dissipated consciousness and give it a new life form.

This is Lu Ming's current understanding of some fundamental laws of the universe.

"For the time being, the Giant Principality should no longer be able to invade the south. In this war, they lost more than 20,000 soldiers and all the light and heavy equipment they were allocated." As Lu Ming spoke, he delivered a cup of fragrant tea to Elizabeth on the other side of the coffee table.

"Huh?" Elizabeth's green eyes widened, and it was difficult to understand the information revealed by Lu Ming's words.

"There is no need to publicize it internally, as long as you know that the other party has suffered such losses. Within the Styx Empire, there should be no publicity to shake the morale of the military, but some rumors will definitely spread."

Lu Ming slowly sipped the tea.

Prince Styx will definitely know that it is his own handiwork, and he will definitely come to the front line to investigate.

But with his caution, he would not easily cross the border again, and he would definitely not enter the territory of the Lion Heart Empire.

If he were him, he would definitely stop the military invasion of the south now and start to truly find out the trump card in his hand.

After all, the two sides on the front line are intertwined, and their beliefs cancel each other out. Even if he comes here, he is not much stronger than ordinary people, let alone massacre the other side's soldiers.

In fact, the same is true for me, but as long as I have the future technology of mechanical civilization.

"Next, the railway will be repaired for you, and the telegraph and telephone lines will at least be laid between the frontline and the military." Lu Ming said to Elizabeth while thinking about it.

Zhi Nao's cruel behavior has actually reversed the situation on the front line.

"Her" judgment and subsequent actions have indeed maximized her own interests.

In this way, if the technology of the Principality of Prague is raised again, the pure black Giant Principality should slowly waver in fear, and it is not a problem to gradually surrender to itself, but it must be done slowly.
