Steel steam and flame

The whole way to the airport was spent in conversation. Information and intelligence were all in Lyle's head, and he knew very well which part Cassia was interested in.

The airport was only a little quiet in the early morning hours. It was probably because it was too early, and the passengers who came here did not have the strength to speak loudly due to fatigue and lethargy. While waiting for Lyle to go through the various procedures for boarding the airship, Cassia found an all-day airport cafe to sit down and rest, enjoying the warmer air circulation system.

While looking around, Cassia discovered that there was a bookstore in a small area not far away, full of maps and travel guides. During his mental perception, he saw that Lyle was still dealing with the corresponding matters. He drank the coffee in a few sips, paid the money and walked straight over.

When the next airship flight time was announced in the waiting hall, Lyle, who returned to the designated location, saw Cassia again. There were two large cloth bags at her feet, filled with books with brand new covers.

"Perhaps this can be clearly reflected in the difference between the empire and small countries. It is not easy to buy this amount of books in small countries." Cassia put on the cloth bag, "When you are bored, you can ask me to borrow a few books. In the past. I have never been a slow reader."

"Thank you in advance, Mr. Cassia." Lyle thanked politely.

Ten minutes later, a large commercial airship with dozens of indicator lights flashing around it took off, wrapped in the cold early morning air. Five steam emission towers side by side in the distance quickly came to the feet. At this moment, they looked like gray-white steam. The smoke column rises straight into the sky, continuously providing nourishment to the scattered clouds.

In the luxurious suite, Lyle and Cassia did not rest, but sat opposite each other in the small living room. After the airship's flight stabilized, Lyle continued to speak, picking up on the unfinished topic in the limo.

"As the time approached, most families from the four forces began to express their positions. The King's family and the Holy Emperor's Hall have determined to form an alliance, and will choose to cooperate with the Theocracy and the Nature Association in the future. But the specific actions are not yet clear. Mark of."

"Master Hai said that the war may continue according to the usual process, and may last for two or three years. Only when the situation is clear will the plan be implemented."

Cassia listened attentively, adding information that Lyle didn't know from time to time, "The six red stars this time are unknown events, related to their immortality and immortality. There is no need to doubt that they move forward step by step cautiously."

"There are also reasons for not being fully prepared." Lyle continued, "The comprehensive cooperation does not seem to be going smoothly for the King's family and the Holy Emperor's Hall. As one of the four parties, how to lead and operate may become problem. In addition, there are also family forces that continue to remain neutral, such as the Infinite Communications Company, which is dominated by the two major families. Until now, although there is a tendency to lean towards the Kiraandi family, it is only a small part of it. Externally , it did not take a position.”

"Among the remaining forces, those who control resources and common technologies currently maintain stable interest exchanges with both parties. They seem to have no intention to participate, but in fact, they should be waiting for which party will take the first step. Show your advantage, right? However, now, I think this group of forces is no longer the target that the two parties want to win over. After all, there are two other giant countries on the Houxiang Continent."

Cassia agreed with Lyle's last words, "The Holy Emperor's Hall and the King's Family will definitely focus their main energy on the Theocracy and the Natural Association. Remaining neutral does not mean that they can preserve their strength. The attraction will increase with time. Gradually declining.”

"In addition to the four forces, the empire and the military have awakened and begun activities, which is also the current focus of attention. For us, a large number of characters we have never heard of suddenly appeared. A new list of five-star generals was recently announced. If Mr. Cassia is interested, you can take a look and I will give you detailed information later."

"In addition, the Twelve Knights of the Round Table completely separated from the Holy Emperor's Hall and were placed under the Imperial Parliament. This was also a matter that shocked the entire empire. According to Mr. Hai, the voting meeting not long ago , the vast majority of people agree with the Knights of the Round Table’s separation from the Holy Emperor’s Hall. The Holy Fathers know their current situation in the empire and have not taken excessive measures.”

"However, using this as a starting point triggered a series of chain reactions. First, the Rose and the Knights of the Rose, which ranked second in the empire, declared their independence. They were also attached to the Imperial Parliament and dispatched in large numbers to various places. Activities in extreme areas. Later, news came out from the headquarters of the Manoma Guards that they would no longer accept the instructions of the King's family and the Imperial Council, but would merge with the special operations agency to launch empire-wide security Defense work.”

"Master Hai, there are now people from the Guards. It has indeed improved the efficiency and deterrence of the special operations agency by several levels. Most of the current thorny troubles are taken care of by the Guards. Not long ago, it was The king's faction, as the controller of the Guards, did not make any sound. To be precise, they made an explanation, but they agreed with this change and claimed that this was the meaning of the existence of the Guards."

"As for the Imperial Council, most of its power relies on the forces of the four parties. It can only play a mediating role at the moment and will not cause the empire to disperse immediately. However, the option of the Imperial Council still hiding something is still not ruled out, Master Hai. It is said that the people in the Imperial Council are all good at using their heads, and they need to be careful at all times."

"Other information, Mr. Cassia should also know, that is, the military went to the extreme area to clean up the pollution. However, during the process of cleaning up the pollution, many people's names were hung in the extreme area, but they were not there. Or, during the pollution process, some people who seemed unlikely to die died one by one for reasonable reasons."

Cassia, who sighed, interrupted Lyle's words. He was very familiar with this whole process: "The body cannot be found, or even if the body is found, it is impossible to guarantee that the body is itself. In the future, we will definitely One after another, I encountered some people who had 'died'."

"It'll be fun."

"Probably." Cassia smiled, "What about the knight attendants and the new generation of elites? They should have been following up on the information."

"This is the most detailed part. I'll try to explain it as briefly as possible so as not to take up Mr. Cassia's reading time..."

Three days later, in the evening, the airship arrived over a bustling area roughly outlined by light, and hovered for nearly half an hour before finally docking at the airport.
