After waking up

In the Ilhan Kingdom, a neighboring country to the north of the Basman United Kingdom, a man sitting on a train was reading a copy of "Truth and Magic".

‘Ha, nothing this guy Mulan can do will surprise me anymore. ’

The light outside the window made the man raise his head, but it was not sunlight, but a flash of light in the distant sky. An airship was slowly falling from the distance with thick smoke.

"Boom~"

Only then did the explosion sound come from a distance.

Sitting opposite Ivan were Phoenix and Reno, both of whom were also focused on the airship.

"Sir, this is not a civilian airship, it is a military attack airship with a bomb bay and a gun port."

As soon as Renault finished speaking, there was a faint noisy sound similar to an explosion in the distance. As Basman's experienced veterans, Phoenix and Renault instantly felt that something was wrong.

At this moment, the train began to brake suddenly, and the wheels and the rails rubbed against each other, making a harsh "sizzling" sound. Many passengers' cups and luggage overturned, and many people subconsciously held on to their surroundings to support their bodies.

The passengers in the carriage screamed in panic.

"What happened?" "What's going on?"

"What happened to the train?"

"It seems to be braking!"

"Everyone, don't move!"

Ivan also closed "Reality and Magic" and turned his head to look through the window in the direction of the train, but he couldn't see anything special, nor could he sense any dangerous aura or alien magic power.

"Sir, let me go and take a look."

Renault stood up and walked to the front car. The inertia of the train's emergency stop had no effect on him. He easily passed through several cars, then jumped onto the coal storage car with a slight jump, and then jumped to the cab.

There were two people in the cab, and they were very surprised to see Renault suddenly jumping out.

"Who are you? What are you doing here? It's dangerous here!"

"Passenger, how did you get here?"

Renault looked into the distance. From here, he could see a bridge in the distance in the straight direction of travel. It seemed that it was damaged. This should be the reason for the emergency stop of the train.

Reno said nothing and immediately returned to inform Alvin and Phoenix about the matter.

The train became slower and slower, and finally stopped near the bridge after sliding for several hundred meters.

The train door opened quickly, and many passengers, including Alvin, got off and naturally saw the broken bridge not far away.

People were talking a lot, and Renault had quickly approached the bridge to check. After he came back, he approached Alvin and Phoenix.

"It was broken by explosives, and there are still traces of blasting."

Passengers around have begun to complain. In this place, the train cannot turn around, and the bridge will not be repaired for a while, which will definitely affect the schedule.

"Everyone be quiet for a moment -"

The conductor came over and used a funnel-shaped paper amplifier to increase his voice.

"Dear passengers, please rest on the train for the time being. Even if you get off the train, don't go far. There may be wild animals in the nearby forest. Please pay attention to safety. We have sent people to notify the cities behind -"

"Don't worry, everyone, there will be a locomotive coming to tow our train back soon——"

In this case, the condition of the bridge cannot be repaired in a few days. It is more appropriate to reverse the train from the rear and then drag the train back in reverse direction.

There is no other way. This is the safest way to deal with it at this stage. Besides, it is almost evening and it will get dark soon.

Ivan and the two Silent Knights did not choose to leave immediately. They returned to their seats together. Ivan could feel that his target had been sensing that position, so he was not in a hurry.

After dark, everyone on the train was sitting or lying down in their seats. Some were sleeping, while others took out the prepared bread and gnawed it.

Flashes of light came on.

"Boom——" "Boom——"

There was an explosion in the distance.

Many passengers straightened up and leaned their heads out of the windows. At night, this light was particularly eye-catching.

Along with the flash of light, there was another explosion soon.

"Boom--" "Boom--"

An uneasy atmosphere began to fill the car windows.

"This is not thunder." "Is there a war ahead?"

"I heard someone say during the day that the bridge might have been blown up, right?"

"Did the soldiers blow it up?"

"Rumble--"

A closer and more violent explosion sounded, and all the carriages fell silent. Everyone looked at the people around them and out of the window at a loss.

The bolder people like Alvin and the two knights had already got off the car again. They looked in the direction of the broken bridge, and the fire in the distance was more obvious.

"Hopefully it's not where I'm going." "Why is there fighting?"

"I heard that Xiljin's side is really not peaceful recently."

Alvin grabbed the book and walked over.

"Why? Did it happen?"

When the speaker saw that Alvin was well-dressed and his blond hair was pure and untainted, he immediately felt that he was not an ordinary person.

"You don't know? A lot of people were arrested in Shirkin a while ago, and the Workers' Party protest made a big fuss. As a result, several Workers' Party members who participated in politics were arrested."

"Silkin has an arsenal."

Reno beside him said this, and Phoenix was also thoughtful.

"Sir, do you want to take a detour?"

Alvin shook his head.

"No, don't worry about Taylor being out of touch with me. On the other hand, the Workers' Party is also one of our key observation targets. If necessary, we can rescue them."

The so-called Workers' Party is a party founded by Moore two years ago. It originated in Bach, but is also active in the more industrialized northern continent, seeking to safeguard the interests of workers in legitimate ways.

Just after Ai Wencai was resurrected, Suguang internally held a discussion meeting while the main personnel were present, and sorted out some plans and goals.

It lists some individuals or forces in the world who maintain sacred objects, and also lists some targets that can be used or need to be focused on. As long as it is possible to help Dawn's ultimate goal, it has observation value, and will be followed by the understanding of the world. The deeper the observation, the more goals will be added.

This is also Dawn's more important "observer" system today, figuring out the locations of all the thirty-three sacred objects except the "Book of Dawn", and waiting for opportunities to snatch the sacred objects in the process.

Although Mullan has been very busy these years and has basically no contact with Moore, it is not difficult to get some relevant information, but it is not in-depth enough.

The other passengers beside him were still talking, and the person who just spoke to Alvin wanted to ask about the other person's identity.

"That's right, sir."

But in just a moment of turning around, the blond gentleman and his two companions who had just been whispering there were gone.

"Is it possible to get back on the train?"

At this moment, Alvin and the two Silent Knights had already entered the woods beside the railway, and were rushing forward from below, crossing the river valley towards their destination.

An armed riot is breaking out in Shirkin at this moment. At least for the moment, it is not an armed uprising, because the organizers' goal is very simple and pure. They are to rescue the two Workers' Party participants and other arrested Workers' Party members and demand security. Written commitments that could have been implemented before.

It is now getting hotter and hotter in Dilga in the southern continent, while it is already bitingly cold in Hilkin in the north.

In recent years, the weather has become more and more extreme. Summers are extremely hot and winters are extremely cold. The demands of workers whose rights and interests are not protected are not actually high. They just hope to ensure food and clothing in winter, but obviously they are not met.

Now that the riot has become a reality, the arsenal is first occupied from the inside out. A large number of excited workers have obtained the weapons in the warehouse and are preparing for armed protests to force the aristocratic capital of Shirkin to release and participate in politics to fulfill their promises.

However, the situation seemed to be developing in an unexpected direction. Silkin's regular defense force had no fighting courage in the face of the angry workers' armed forces, and could even be said to be vulnerable.

"Da da da da da da." "Boom——"

Outside Shirkin Prison, the sound of machine guns and explosions frightened the guards and they did not care about guarding the prison. Many people fled for their lives.

Immediately, armed workers broke into the prison and directly released the Workers' Party political parties and some Workers' Party members who were locked up in the deepest part.

A group of people who had been imprisoned for more than half a month broke out of the prison and learned about Sirkin's current situation.

A direct armed riot is obviously an impulsive move, but it is impossible to disperse everyone immediately. This makes the two leading Workers' Party members very distressed. Some thoughtful senior officials held a meeting in the arsenal to discuss what to do.

"If you do this, even if things calm down, they will definitely hold a grudge!"

"But things have already happened. Do you want to criticize the worker friends who saved us?"

"Of course not! We need to find a solution to the problem!"

"If only Mr. Moore were here!"

"Didn't Mr. Moore say that we need to fight when the time is right, because the fangs of capital will not relent after seeing blood."

"Yes, they are not only vampires, but also petty. What happened this time has already happened. Even if they make a promise, do you think they will keep it?"

"Mr. Polly?"

The man who spoke was one of the two political figures who came to Ilhan from Moore a year ago.

"What is the right time? Let's think about it, what is the right time? It will never be. We take a step back, they take a step forward, we are eaten flesh and drink blood, we are always weak!"

"Are you trying to say that Mr. Moore is wrong?"

"No! The teacher is right. He has already seen this cruel reality clearly. It can be seen from his works that he no longer believes in mild protests, and no longer believes in the conscience of capital and aristocrats!"

"I mean, since we already have the conditions we have today, let's make now the right time. Rather than being suppressed after the riots, we have to show our courage! We have to overthrow the nobles who govern Silkin , and then negotiate with the kingdom to obtain autonomy!”

Everyone was shocked by Poli's pronunciation.

"Do you know what you are talking about? How can we fight against the regular army!"

"We have fought!"

"If the teacher were here."

"Even if the teacher is here, I believe he will be more radical than me! In this twisted society, if you want to have a wonderful life without bloodshed, the teacher has long since woken up. Are you still dreaming?"

Poli's roar was so deafening that no one present could speak.

"Now for the vote, those who still believe in the Silkin nobles and capital, those who don't believe we can succeed, and those who disagree with what I say, just raise your hands!"

If Po Li was talking about raising hands in agreement, maybe no one would have the courage to raise their hands immediately, but he said the opposite, no one raised their hands immediately, and the other imprisoned political participant suddenly gritted his teeth. said.

"I agree, let's do it!"

"Mr. Joseph?"

"He is right, if we miss this opportunity, our situation will be even more difficult!"

"."

"Do it!" "Do it!"

"Then what to do!"

Soon after this moment, the scale of fighting in the Shirkin area began to increase. Within the Workers' Party, this was no longer a riot, but an uprising.

Not long after Ivan and others arrived in Silkin City, they could feel that this was definitely not a simple riot. He immediately recruited a raven that had been immersed in the power of the Crow Queen as a messenger to send the news back to Dawn.
