Steel steam and flame

"So, you know it. It seems that you have come into contact with a lot of information about this plan." Satric responded.

"You can't say that. Those who are concerned about these things should be those in the Imperial Council. Some things should be thrown into their hands and let the people who should be worried worry about it. When it comes to us, after all, our status and position are not the same. That fits." Otto's laughter was also dry, with a vague sense of hoarseness. He paused his throat and said, "How is the King of Steel Defoni? There has been no news about him since the last war. It is said that he went to the area near the sea current. Before the last war, the Prime Minister of the Continent He is probably the most famous person in the world, and being known to many people in the Empire and the Flame Alliance is also a kind of charm that comes with it."

"Fortunately, at least he is worthy of the name given to him by the Far Sea Commonwealth as the 'King of Steel', and he is worthy of his name. His state of mind may have regressed a lot. I remember that he seems to be a little older than you?"

"Indeed, he is more than ten years older than me." Otto became aware, "His time is running out, even if the Far Sea Commonwealth will definitely use the best medicine for him to delay the aging period of the surgeon, But it is still delayed after all, and the state will still decline day by day. It is almost time to go down. He has lived long enough to experience two wars, and this time not long ago, it is three times. The entire post-mortem There are not many people like him on the mainland, so you should be content. It is better to die of old age than to disappear from everyone's sight for no reason during peacetime."

"Is the Holy Emperor's Hall involved in the 'Mechanical Dragon' plan?" Satric waited until Otto finished speaking and took a breath before asking. Otto looked over, and there was no expression on Satric's side face. It was like solid metal, without any change.

"You think too highly of the power of the Holy Emperor's Hall. The Far Sea Commonwealth is also one of the three giant countries on the Queen's Continent. It is not easy to get some information for such a core plan. Participate? Indeed, not only It’s us, the Webley Arms Company, the King’s Faction, and several large tribes in the Far Sea Commonwealth all have the same idea...but that’s not the point of the problem, right?” Otto asked in return, “How is it going? Very soon. If a long-term plan is not put forward, it will die in the plan again, waiting for someone to suddenly take over one day. If it is the King of Steel this time, I still have great confidence in Defoni, after all, relying on his personal With strength and charm, you don’t have to worry about not getting the resources you want.”

"Such an important plan, do you think Defoni would let a person like me participate in the core part?" Satrick laughed, not sure if he was mocking Otto for thinking about it before speaking. "Before I left the Far Sea Common Country, the parts I was exposed to were only peripheral and important matters, and I was not qualified for the core parts. However..."

Satric looked over, and a different expression appeared on his face that looked like solid metal. It was the expectation of a good show that was about to unfold: "Before leaving, I received news that this plan was approved by the senior officials of the Far Sea Commonwealth. A complete halt was called, even though this time it was the King of Steel, Defoni Phoenix, who was presiding over it. As for the reason, it seemed that someone from the Theocracy came in to intervene. I remember that the ocean-going giant Venetus was suspended nearly two years ago Did you dock at the seaport of the Far Sea Commonwealth?"

"Isn't the surgeon on that ship at the highest level four?"

"Who knows? After all, it is the Theocracy. Even if the later investigators did not go to the Far Sea Commonwealth with the Venetus and spend several months swimming to the Queen's Continent alone with their fifth-level physical strength, It is possible. However, I am more inclined to believe that the first batch of investigators on the Venetus found some traces. After that, the Theocracy sent some separate people to the Far Sea Commonwealth." Satric said . He paused and his tone became obviously more serious.

"It's possible that the Church Council will directly send people to completely cut off the 'Mechanical Dragon' plan, so if the Holy Emperor's Hall has contact with it, it's better to cut off the contact yourself in advance. In addition, with the Steel Wang Defoni’s character,,,”

Satric pursed his lips when he said this. Otto was obviously stunned for a moment, but he immediately understood with a smile on his face, "I will organize the news and tell it to the Holy Fathers. As for whether they are willing to participate Going in, or even taking over, still depends on Defoni's thoughts. From my personal understanding of Defoni, I think that instead of moving the place to continue research, maybe completely destroying it is what he will eventually do. Choose."

"He can just destroy himself. Leaving some things behind for everyone to see may not be a bad thing."

The two wanted to continue, but they were interrupted by the sound of footsteps coming from the end of the corridor.

"I look forward to having such a comfortable conversation next time." The two stood up, made an invitation gesture to the visitor, and entered the next room together.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Mavis's airship arrived not on time. Cassia watched the seven people disappear into the dark blue of the sky in the airship, and then turned around and went to the storage location she had chosen.

We arrived at around 1:00 noon, and the attackers had already left. According to the agreed mark, Cassia quickly found the iron box that was perfectly buried under the ground, and opened it under the dappled sunlight under the woods. It's the same as what was said during the contact, nothing extra. A total of four pneumatic swords and nearly two hundred rounds of high-quality acid platinum bullets. Apart from these, there are two large-caliber clip-type pistols and multiple ammunition. The remaining ones are two masks made of alloy, and several potions mentioned by Hao.

Cassia picked up the potion and looked at it. Judging from the shape of the bottle, they were all stimulants. One of the injections was started on the spot, but the result was as Cassia expected. The needle was corroded the moment it pierced the skin and came into contact with the blood, and the "injection" step could not be completed at all.

"Even if it succeeds, its effectiveness will probably not provide much effect on my body." Cassia took the needed things and said to herself as she buried the box. He understood that while this body was automatically adapting to various biological poisons, it would also adapt to other beneficial agents, treating them like biological poisons, rendering them ineffective.

Going to the open area, Cassia looked up at the sky. The heavy rain he was looking forward to was coming, because the replication speed of those clouds was obviously faster. But the specific time of the drop should be more than a week later. After returning to the guard position, Cassia put down the pneumatic sword and lay on a dead leaf, waiting for Mavis and the others to return.
