Steel steam and flame

"We are responsible for your safety. We do not have any authority over other matters." Although the voice behind him has changed, it has inherited the same tenderness, "Maybe it has something to do with it." It is still more of a comforting nature, " However, he should have been looking for you all the time. They are just two different giant countries, plus the vastness of the continent itself..."

The voice fell into silence, and everyone in the driver's seat and passenger's seat turned to look at the speaker. The gaze is gentle and kind, but it has the power to make the speaker shut up.

Kalia felt it, nodded slightly, and said thank you. Leaning on the seat, the deep breath just now turned into a slightly rapid snort. The effect of the anesthesia was still there, and it would take time for the body's sensitivity, state, etc. to recover. The long journey in the limo also slowly consumed her mentally and physically.

Even though this was a very high-end limousine, the actual physical fact of not being able to touch the ground with her feet for a long time would put her body in a state similar to illness. It won't be a comfortable experience.

Heavy rainstorms continued, occasionally mixed with ice slag and ice particles. The high speed of the vehicles and the density of the rain made Kalia unable to see the surrounding scenery clearly. There was nothing to kill time, and the questions accumulated in her head could not be answered for the time being. She could only think randomly.

Soon after, her mother woke up and the situation eased with someone else to talk to.

On the wide road, the number of limo cars gradually increased around the motorcade. Ahead, through the front window glass, there are other hazy colors in the dense rain curtain.

"We're almost there, there's still less than an hour to go." The driver of the vehicle exhaled, as if all the pressure accumulated during this period had finally been emptied, and his body became relieved to a degree visible to the naked eye. Her actions made everyone in the limo relax, and sighs and emotions of varying degrees appeared one after another.

"This is the only rest before leaving, and it is also the only giant bustling city we will pass through on our route." The voice behind us followed up and explained, "After leaving this city, our next destination will be facing the transfer line. , the border line with the Saint Dorag Empire."

"There will be no danger. You can rest assured about safety."

"Thank you." Kalia's mother said in a steady voice. Without asking anything more, she understood her situation better than Kalia.

However, after looking at the other limousines around her, Kalia suddenly spoke softly: "Why not take the airship? Wouldn't it be faster?"

"Well..." It was a question that was not easy to explain. It took more than half a minute for someone to think of the right words to say, "We trust our own feet and the solid earth more." Whether Kalia understood it or not, this was the answer. So until the convoy approached the giant bustling city ahead, no one spoke.

The convoy separated after a cluster of buildings appeared around it. They were divided into five teams and headed in different directions of the city. But there are vehicles leaving and new vehicles joining. Kalia didn't quite understand the meaning of this, but the people in the limo didn't take the initiative to explain, so this was something she didn't need to know.

For some reason, Kalia always felt that after entering the city, she noticed a familiar feeling around her. It's very vague, but it's there.

The heavy rainstorm has also subsided a lot. Maybe it’s because the tall buildings in the city block a lot of rain? she thought. However, just entering this giant city makes you feel comfortable physically and mentally, which is an intuitive feeling that cannot be ignored.

She wanted to know the reason for this feeling, and after thinking for a while, she finally asked.

I got the answer immediately, but couldn't quite understand it. The person behind her happily replied: "Well, maybe the sanitation in giant bustling cities is better. There won't be thick fog, and mold won't grow on the ground due to long periods of rain. That's probably it. None of us quite know why.”

Kalia thought of the coniferous trees that had been cut down in the school, and seemed to understand something. While thinking, the limousine shuttled on the road, and soon came to a building that could feel the beauty just from its appearance. It entered the ground parking building, and the journey finally came to an end here.

When you get off the car, you can feel the warm air around you and the scent of high-end perfume in it. In the past few days, the coldness under the heavy rain seems not to exist, as if it has disappeared from around me.

Stepping on the ground, Kalia felt a sense of solidity, but her feet were still uncomfortable. He walked very slowly, but the dozen or so people around him also cooperated without any intention of urging. Her eyes were wandering, and within a short distance of walking to the nearest elevator, Kalia saw a variety of visually beautiful and luxurious limousines.

Things that were rarely seen in the area where I lived before seem to be extremely simple and common in this parking lot.

The small amount of luggage was carried by someone beside her with one hand. Kalia wanted to carry it herself, but was refused.

"In the current environment, giant cities have become a gathering point for many people." The gentle voice explained, "For some nobles, businessmen, or others, giant cities are indeed a very good choice. "

When we got to the lift, although the space inside was very spacious and could accommodate everyone, surprisingly, there were only four people traveling with us. The others were either taking another lift or waiting for the next one.

Kalia didn't ask why, she thought this was another unanswered question.

The elevator stopped at the middle and upper floors. Although it was only for a short rest, several spacious and luxurious rooms were still booked. The corridor is carpeted, and it is soft and comfortable to walk on. Kalia was somewhat relaxed in this feeling.

It was only after entering the room that Kalia discovered that two other members were already sitting inside, looking like they had been waiting for some time.

"Miss Kalia...well, maybe Miss Lilia would be better." One of them said with a smile.

At the same time, on the roof of the building, three men walked out of the corridor door.

"I never thought that one day we would go to the top of the building to monitor the situation in other surrounding buildings."

"In the eyes of some escort members, the fifth stage is indeed this kind of role. I don't ask you to block bullets for the target, which I think is the best respect. Moreover, in our situation, red ring bullets will indeed appear The chances of not being able to block them all.”
