Longmen Memoirs

"I understand."

Chen Mo seemed to have thought of something.

"Still the same?" he asked.

"Yeah, I hope she can be more restrained and don't do anything else."

"Do you know about Ms. Kelsey's situation?" Scout replied with a headache.

"That's true." Chen Mo had the same feeling.

There was a voice behind him, and Hedley walked out of the tent. He didn't know what he said to W. The man who Ines said thought too much looked frowning.

It would be better to say that he always looked gloomy.

"Judging from your expression, I already know the result." Chen Mo said before Hedley could speak.

"Ugh……"

He sighed and Chen Mo patted his shoulder.

"When children grow up, it's normal for them to have their own ideas. Don't be like this old father who is embarrassed."

"What she did this time really surprised me." Hedley hesitated to speak.

"Just like you never thought that you would join the Tower of Babel one day." Chen Mo said: "You should tell his new commander these words. You may have something in common, but he regards w as his successor. Cultivating.”

Chen Mo looked at Scout.

"You don't need to introduce me, you should have met me just now."

"Scout, indeed, I have heard about the famous Sakaz assassin for a long time." Hedley looked at Scout, "I didn't expect that you are also from the Tower of Babel, and one day we can actually become colleagues."

"I'm surprised too, Hedley, a well-known veteran mercenary."

"I hope my name doesn't appear on the hunting list." Hedley held Scout's outstretched palm with a hint of joking.

hands apart.

"It's actually been crossed out," Scout added. "If we are all still alive after this is over, I hope I can buy you a drink to say I'm sorry."

"my pleasure."

For Hedley, the former leader of the Sakaz mercenary group who was half-threatened by Chen Mo and joined the Tower of Babel, this may be one of the few good things.

Scout looked at Chen Mo again and stretched out his hand again.

Chen Mo held his palm.

"Don't die, Brother Chen."

"You too, Scout."

I know that flesh and blood cannot resist the sword, and I know that human life is fragile and cheap. They are like weeds that are burned out in winter and grow again in spring.

I know that my career cannot be called integrity and greatness.

I knew I was setting countless people up for death, including myself.

I hope that one day, weeds can cover the entire barren land of Kazdaele, so that this barren land will be filled with flowers, so that every Sakaz living here can have food and clothing without worries.

Children grow up healthy and are not ashamed of their identity as Sakaz. Adults can have their own jobs and support their families through hard work. Mercenaries are proud to protect their homes and countries and do not make a living by robbing caravans.

I don’t need the title of hero for this, leave them to those who sacrificed their lives.

I don't need people to praise me either.

I don't deserve them to sing my praises and remember me.

Chapter 3 Introduction

Suenyan-Hokka Wolfman.

Many people may have forgotten this name. One of the spies from Babel who once lurked into Old Gray, and one of the people behind the planning and promotion of the Gray coup, invited Mud Rock and her team to stay. and organize the initiators of the proposal to take over the city by the troops on the evacuation route.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is brave and resourceful. Among most Sakaz people, he is one of the few people who are willing to think with their brains instead of swords. Of course, perhaps it is for this reason that he The ideas of Babel and Theresia were very prejudiced, which became the main reason for his dismissal.

He once told Chen Mo personally that if Theresia was not trustworthy, they would personally defend their city.

This sentence was still fresh in Chen Mo's memory.

Several of the main figures who led the Gray Street coup are now in court. They have different identities and have their own circumstances.

Mu Yan became Chen Mo's adjutant, and Hogg took over the main external operations command. Only Su Enyang, a once famous and ambitious young man, his appearance was as short-lived and fleeting as a meteor in the night sky. Then disappeared.

But for several people in the Tower of Babel, and for Chen Mo's directory, Su Enyang's name has always appeared at the top of the list. He has not lost track, he has just reached a more suitable position.

The former Su Enyang had a new name and a new identity.

He is now a civil servant in the Hearth Administration Office in the Kazdare Industrial Area, and he is also the personal tutor of his boss, Lianna, the only daughter of Earl Maurice, one of the important council members of the Hearth City Council.

He has a wide range of interests, his words are humorous, he is gentle, his conversation is gentle, and he is resourceful. After helping Earl Morris to knock down several competitors, this young man successfully used his talents and experience to enter the aristocratic life of Victoria. In the eyes of Morris, he gradually became his right-hand man.

There were not many smart people in the entire Hearth, but Su Enyang and himself were. Su Enyang, who was invited to stay for dinner at a dinner, heard the count praise him without hesitation.

"It won't be long before this damn war is over and all those southern idiots are sent to the gallows. You and I may be lucky enough to be summoned and rewarded by His Highness."

This verbal promise made Su Enyang couldn't wait to express his uncontrollable surprise and gratitude to the earl. He tried his best to suppress his emotions, but the words in his mouth were more respectful.

Morris was very satisfied with Su Enyang's performance, which made him feel that he had successfully controlled this young man.

He is indeed young, and power, money, and women are all fatal poisons for young people, not to mention the supreme and illusory glory and possible executive titles.

"I heard that you still live with the untouchables in the factory area and teach their children to read and write?"

At the head of the luxurious long table, Earl Morris seemed to ask casually.

Su Enyang put down the tableware in his hand.

The suit and leather shoes set off the young man's calmness, and the pair of glasses made him look even more gentle.

"Just saying a few words to them."

"But someone told me that those children all call you sir. It seems to be more than just a few words, right?" The earl's words contained some knocks and reminders.

Su Enyang knew the earl's character very well. In fact, he had been planning for this for a long time. He not only made a special trip to learn Victoria's court etiquette and difficult and unfamiliar aristocratic vocabulary, but also studied Morris's character and preferences in detail.

Morris, who controls the city's transportation agencies and a quarter of the factory area, has been regarded as a target by him from the beginning. Compared with military attachés and military areas, his utilization value is greater, and his greedy and vain character is easier to succeed. .

Su Enyang's face showed just the right amount of surprise and embarrassment, and he hesitated to speak as if he had seen through his purpose.

"Don't be nervous, young man. I'm not criticizing you. It's not your fault that you let the children of those lower class people get the same education as Mona." The Earl said slowly: "You just arrived at the furnace. Fort, your reputation is not great. Almost no one thought you could achieve what you have achieved today, but you got to know my Mona. She saw your extraordinaryness at a glance. I know her character well. For Sakaz You are too weak and kind. For her safety, I have to use some means to investigate your origins."

Su Enyang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and his secretly tense body also relaxed a little, but in the eyes of the earl, it became the relaxation that his parents had seen through the young man's mind but had no intention of pursuing.

The earl smiled clearly.

Su Enyang spoke humbly.

"I understand your concerns, sir. The young lady has indeed been kind to me. If it weren't for the young lady and you, I think I would still have no fixed place to live, and would be hungry and cold."

"No, young man, opportunity is only part of it. What is more important than opportunity is your ability to grasp it." The count asked with a smile: "I guess it was Mona who told you to do this."

"Actually, it's me..." Su Enyang looked at Morris.

"You don't have to cover up for Mona anymore. She may be happy for you to do this. The child has been full of sympathy for what happened in the industrial area since he was a child. You may also have your own little thoughts in your heart, but this is not a bad thing. You understand me. I mean, you should also understand what Meng Na thinks of you."

The Earl looked sure that he had already known it all. He waved slightly to signal the servants to leave: "You know that I have always admired the attitude of the Victorian aristocrats towards life, but I am a Sakaz after all, and I also know very well about my own. Identity, Mona is my most precious treasure. I have experienced the bitter taste of losing it once, so I hope that she can get her own happiness. For this reason, I don’t mind who will inherit this title and family in the future. Then I’m afraid he’s a wanderer who once had no name, but as long as my Mona likes her, why not?”

"But young man, having said that." The Earl changed the topic: "I think so, but it does not mean that I will really hand over Mona's future and this family business to a mediocre and incompetent person. You and I are both aware of the current situation in Kazdare. Those who are watching are everywhere. Even in this furnace, the enemy and us are still unclear. Instead of watching this family fortune deteriorate little by little in the future and Mona living in poverty, I would rather put her and My family is in the hands of a person who can guarantee her the rest of her life, even if she doesn't get happiness, even if she always resents me as her father."

The earl's words seemed to have meaning. He looked calmly at Su Enyang at the long table. This young disciple of Sakaz was well-dressed and had extraordinary manners. He was favored by the earl.

Su Enyang also seemed to understand what the count meant. His attitude was modest but not overly humble.

"You don't have to call me sir. If you can do this, you can live in this mansion from now on and call me father like Mona."

"Then..." Su Enyang stood up, turned to the earl and bowed his head slightly: "Please allow me to call you this in advance, father."

"Oh? Don't ask why?"

Su Enyang raised his head and smiled.

"No matter the reason, the result is determined."

The earl was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, his laughter was extremely hearty. He clapped his hands lightly, looked at Su Enyang who said these extremely confident words, and carefully studied the young and energetic face of the young man in front of him.

He seemed to think of his past self.

"Hahaha, I have met many young talents, many of whom were born prominently. I have a good eye for knowing people, but now I have to admit that I am really old. You always make me full of surprises."

Su Enyang left Morris's mansion, and the moment he got in the car, this confident young man had long since lost the smile he had at the dinner, and his face was only heavy.

He seemed completely different from before.

"You have something on your mind. It seems you got bad news." A deep voice suddenly came to mind in the dark car.

Su Enyang subconsciously tensed his body and wanted to take out the gun hidden in the car, but after realizing the owner of the voice, his hand that touched the gun slowly loosened his grip.

"Drive and avoid suspicion." The voice reminded again.

The lights come on.

In the rearview mirror inside the car, with the dim light, Su Enyang saw a pair of eyes that looked fierce because of the hideous scar on his left eye.

He knew the identity of the person coming, and naturally knew that at this distance, even if he pulled out the gun, it would be meaningless, and besides, he and he were not enemies.

If Hedley were here, he would probably recognize this man as the recipient of a mercenary transport of supplies commissioned by the Tower of Babel before they joined the Tower of Babel.

"Why are you here?" Su Enyang asked as the car drove onto the street and gradually moved away from the mansion.

"Appeared in your car?" the person in the back seat asked, "I can appear anywhere, don't worry, no one will notice my presence."

"Too dangerous."

"To whom?" he asked: "To you or the noble lady you met, do you have a crush on her? Su Enyang, but I have to remind you of your identity. Everything you get now does not really belong to you. "

"How long have we been working together, Karl, why do you have to remind me with such words."

"You should say it as a warning, lest you forget your purpose."

"If you can kill me at any time, it will be easy for you, but you won't do it." Su Enyang replied: "I also have to remind you, Karl, we are not just monitoring each other."

"So let's talk about your fate tonight, Mr. Alderman. I hope you won't tell me bad news."

Su Enyang remembered the count's last words at the dinner.

"They are going to take action." Su Enyang said: "Tonight Morris asked me, half-beating and half-coaxing, to investigate the remarks and their movements circulating in the factory area. I think it is not just him, they are all preparing for action. In fact, At this point in the war, the location of the industrial zone has become crucial, and they will not allow those remarks to continue."

"But why did he find you, the first supporter?" Karl replied with a hint of irony, looking at Su Enyang's back in the driver's seat.

"Because in the past, we spread these ideas throughout Kazdaele, we have always done that, but now it is different, Carl, my gut tells me that this may become another Gray, but industrial area It’s much bigger than the original Gray, and the situation here is also more complicated.”

"I had forgotten that you had participated in the transformation of that city, but no matter how difficult the situation is, we must ensure that the industrial area remains intact. This is the lifeblood of Kazdaele, and we cannot lose it no matter what."

"Of course I know. In fact, in the past few years, we have been relying on Morris's power to transfer weapons and medicines. Isn't it just for this day, for the heart of Kazdaele." Su Enyang replied: "The Lord sent me Come here and tell me to go north, and from then on I know exactly what I have to do.”

"It's good that you don't forget."

"I will not forget, I will not forget the brothers who died on Gele Street, let alone those bodies that followed the flow of refugees and people and starved to death and froze to death on the migration path. The things we, Sakaz, lost with our own hands, It is up to Sakaz himself to pick it up, our dignity, hometown, life and future." Su Enyang's voice became calmer: "I have been dead for a long time, ever since I took up arms and killed for a piece of moldy bread. I died when I was alone, but I got a new life in Grai, and we Sakaz should all have this opportunity to save ourselves."

A few seconds later, Su Enyang heard Karl's answer.

"You're not the first, brother," he said.

"I won't be the last."

"Of course, at least there's me."

"It shouldn't be just you." A smile appeared on Su Enyang's lips: "Even if I cut you into fine pieces, it's still not worth an army. Karl, what we need are reinforcements, barriers, and confidence. It shouldn't be just you and me. I’m talking about the entire Sakaz, otherwise we and the workers who are willing to follow us and the crude weapons in their hands will not be able to defeat the elite legions and mercenaries stationed near the industrial area.”

"They can't kill everyone."

"They don't have to kill everyone, just some, just some, and people will be wary, and if we do nothing, people will lose trust in us."

"...I will get in touch with Babel as soon as possible, but we need time."

"We don't have time, and no one knows when they will take action. The longer it takes, the worse it will be for me, and Morris will be suspicious of me." Su Enyang replied in a deep voice: "Besides, there are too many people, and we can't cover it up." Come here, the more we do, the more passive we become.”
