"Mr. President, what's going on?"
Many of the councilors were still staring at the black dot in the distance, but more of them noticed Jeremy's strange behavior and gathered around him.
"That's the army of the Kingdom of Karen."
Jeremy answered truthfully, but he felt that his voice was extremely bitter. "Prime Minister Roddy went to Raxia City to build a place for that thing to land …"
His words caused an uproar. The mages widened their eyes and looked at the white-haired president in disbelief. "Jeremy, I hope you're joking!"
"We should've stopped them and asked them carefully. Even if they signed the agreement, how could they fly over Duriel like that?!"
"It's flying at an altitude of more than three thousand meters. Tell me, how can we stop it?"
Jeremy glanced at the councilor and said coldly, "Use the ballista on the floating space tower? Or do you think your fireball spell can catch up with that thing's flying speed? "
The councilors wanted to say something but stopped. In the end, they all fell silent.
"Alright, Ambassador Mithran's letter proves that this is a friendly action. Prime Minister Roddy did not ask us to cooperate in advance. So, everyone … return to the hall and continue our discussion."
Jeremy's words were endlessly bleak, and his last sentence was even a little sarcastic.
However, the heaviness and confinement of a system was not something that could be solved with a few sarcastic words. As his figure disappeared into the shadows of the porch, the councilors who followed behind him looked solemn. No matter how glorious Lassiman's victory was, the scene just now was like a head-on blow, waking them up from their "dream of becoming a great nation" that they were immersed in.
In the city of Duriel, the people on the streets and alleys looked up at the sky. Initially, there was a stampede and panic caused by someone shouting "the monster is coming", but the situation quickly calmed down after the city defense team intervened and the plane flew away. In the major academies, regardless of their strength, the mages were much calmer.
The atmosphere in the Moffett Academy, which was mainly composed of puppeteers, was especially excited. They had a keen sense of smell when it came to mechanical objects. Even though it was far away, with just a short glimpse, it was enough to prove that the plane was a man-made aircraft through observation circles and calculation data.
However, after hearing the commotion, Naifei walked out of the laboratory and frowned as he looked at the sky. No matter how he thought about it, something was wrong.
She dropped the half-assembled parts in her hands and jumped onto a horse-drawn carriage in front of the academy. She flew all the way to Merinsala's laboratory, and before she even knocked on the door, the door slowly opened.
"You're here?"
Sitting in an armchair by the window, Merinthra looked calm, but this was not normal for Naiffy. In her memory, the Shadow Dragon was always busy, either studying magic arrays or writing something. When did it ever sit down and drink tea?
"Sister Merinsera …"
"I know what you want to ask. The aircraft that just flew past was the Kingdom of Karen's aircraft."
Naifei's voice was a little excited. "That, that Roddy, he … has arrived?"
"Him? They arrived a week ago. "Merinsera was a little surprised." You didn't know? He should have gone to find you. "
Naifei was stunned. She shook her head and said, "No."
After a few seconds, she looked at the ground and pouted. "Maybe he's too busy …"
Of course, Merinsera could hear the grievance in Naifei's words. This little girl had been looking forward to seeing Roddy for a long time, but he didn't pay any attention to her at all. Of course, she was angry. But she also knew that Roddy was not that kind of person, so she said, "The day he came to find me, he went directly to Moffett Academy after leaving. I don't think he went to find someone else. Maybe there's some misunderstanding. "
As they were talking, someone knocked on the door again. Merinsera squinted her eyes. When the wooden door opened, it was Akasha who came in.
She was a little surprised to see Naifei. After greeting the two of them, she immediately said, "Naifei's experiment is over? Roddy asked me to apologize to you when I see you … He went to find you that day, but he was stopped by your friends. They said not to disturb you, so he left temporarily. "
Naifei's grievances immediately vanished. She had been holding back her tears just now. Now that she heard Jiang Yi's words, she immediately understood that her friends had treated her as a suitor and had deliberately blocked her from entering. Of course, she couldn't blame them for this matter. After all, she had never accepted anyone's suitors before.
Suddenly, her ears burned as if they had a fever. She said shyly, "Oh, I see!"
Merinsera glanced at her and then looked away. She said in a serious voice, "What's the matter with Roddy?"
She had a strong aura, and Akasha could also feel it. But she had always been indifferent to this kind of confrontation. She still smiled and said, "Because of the urgency of the war, Roddy has been staying in Laxia City. But he sent me a letter and asked me to ask you … The day after tomorrow, he will come to discuss with Lassman. At the same time, he will also bring a group of people to Laxia City. If you are interested, you can go with him."
"Really? I just heard that the war in Laxia City is serious. Are we going there to help? "
Akasha shrugged. "I don't know the specific arrangement. But when the time comes, I'll have to trouble you two … Can you come with me to take care of Sally? "
The two looked at each other and nodded at the same time. On the other hand, Naifei didn't know that Sally was unwell, and she even enthusiastically wanted to see her. However, after listening to Akasha's explanation, she immediately sat back down obediently.
The peaceful life in the academy had kept her away from the war. Naifei had never thought that such a thing would happen. For a moment, she was even at a loss. "When will the war stop?"
At the same time, Sodelor, who had come down from the Albatross, had already come to the edge of the airport with his guards to report to Roddy.
From the beginning, Rody had trained the scouts according to his impression of the 'People's Liberation Army'. Later, when the army expanded, Sodelor implemented this strict military discipline to the end. As a result, when more than a hundred soldiers on the Albatross disembarked and lined up, there was no chatter at all. There was only the sound of various kinds of equipment colliding and the trotting footsteps of the soldiers.
"Reporting to the Prime Minister, the Air Force transport company will carry out 25 transport batches according to the plan. There are a total of three transport planes taking turns to transport, and reconnaissance planes are escorting on the way. The first batch of engineering team and staff should be 133 people, and the actual number is 133 people, waiting for the Prime Minister's order!"
"Everything according to the plan, you see the arrangement. I've done everything I can. "
Roddy looked serious, then turned sideways and signaled to go into the tent to talk about the rest of the matter.
Although this kind of formulaic dialogue seemed meaningless, it was very necessary in the army. The soldiers not far away saw that their immediate superior was so serious, they did not dare to slack off. "Look right", "Attention" orders came one after another. On the roughly flat drill ground on the side of the airport, in less than ten minutes, neat rows of neat lines stood.
