Chapter 977

The meeting was over, but Hetty did not leave the room.

Soldering was left behind by her, and it didn't take long for Carmel to be summoned to the conference room by her.

Long before the meeting was over, Soldrin noticed something, and when there was no one around, he asked bluntly, "Do you think this is weird?"

As Gawain's comrade-in-arms, Soldrin is actually Hetty's elder here, so even if his position is slightly lower, he and Hetty have always been straightforward when talking with him.

"This thing is weird from start to finish," Hetty nodded calmly, her eyes swept between Carmel and Soldrin, "The Typhons' actions were illogical, and a trump Throwing out a lone army against a border line is not justified from any tactical point of view - both Philip and General Maryland have emphasized this. And this illogical behavior ... is not justified by the commander's stupidity or lack of intelligence. legal explanation.

"The Typhons can't be stupid, they're not that backward in intelligence, they can't be unaware of the existence of armored trains and railway defenses."

"Are you suspecting...is it a mutation of the Church of God of War in Typhon?" As a member of the Disobedient, Camille naturally thought of this aspect.

"Although there is no evidence, it is very likely," Hetty nodded. "The abnormal situation of the Church of God of War has been going on for some time. The Typhon royal family has taken many measures to suppress its church activities and weaken the gathering of believers, but the abnormal situation is not at all abnormal. There is no sign of the end, we can assume that all their measures have failed - although it is not known in what way the maddened God of War has affected the believers, we can assume that the actions of the Knights of the Iron River are related to the God of War. Out of control."

Solderin couldn't help frowning: "If that's the case, then we and Typhon..."

"Regardless of whether the Knights of the Iron River were ordered by Rosetta or their 'Lord', in fact they all attacked the Changfeng line of defense, and the enemy came over, of course we have to fight back - this matter It won't change," Hetty said without hesitation, "the point is that we have to figure out as soon as possible whether we are fighting the Typhons or the gods that are out of control.

"Now Maryland and General Philip are conducting military operations on the border, and they will also conduct investigations to collect information on Typhon's side as much as possible, but the main army is best at frontal combat, and they may not be able to quickly find out the truth - the latter It is the strength of the Iron Rangers.

"Soldrin, you may need to make a trip to the eastern border - bring your rangers and find a way to figure out what's going on there, and the MI operatives who infiltrated Typhon will also cooperate with you."

Solderin nodded without any doubt: "Of course,

The Iron Rangers are used to deal with this situation - and I know the situation on Typhon's side relatively well, so it is suitable for me to go. "

"That's right," Hetty recalled something, with a smile on her face, "I almost forgot that you stayed in Typhon for a long time."

At this time, Carmel, who was next to him, also broke the silence: "Is my mission to fight against the possible contamination of the gods?"

Heidi looked at the ancient magister who was full of arcane brilliance, her face became solemn, and she nodded vigorously: "Yes - this is probably another battlefield."

"If Typhon's army is really eroded by the mad will of the god of war, then the Imperial soldiers who fight against them will undoubtedly be exposed to danger," Camille hummed inside, "although Cecil The belief in the god of war in the territory is not strong, but some soldiers and officers in our army are also affected by it, and it cannot be ruled out that spiritual pollution will spread along these ordinary believers.”

Hetty asked with a serious expression: "Will the existing protection measures work?"

"Through the further cracking of the siren rune and the in-depth understanding of the phenomenon of 'Eva', we have improved the 'mental protection system' on various vehicles and individual soldier protection, and Naritil believes that its effect is sufficient Combat close-range, visual and auditory mental pollution for hours. On the other hand, we've built a 'human barrier' system in a neural network by translating low-frequency oscillations in the song of the siren into neural background signals , we can uninterruptedly 'broadcast' the information flow with purifying effect on the whole network, coupled with the certain resistance provided by Naritil itself, as long as the neural network can cover the front line, even if the soldiers suffer from mild mental pollution, we will It can also be reversed and purified.

"Of course, this is all laboratory data - the whole system is not battle-tested, which I must confess."

Out of the rigor of a scholar and the responsible attitude of his character, Kamel bluntly spoke out about the possible hidden dangers of these protective measures, which Hetty had obviously considered.

"Anything is better than nothing. At least we have a way to deal with it. As for the effectiveness...things that should be tested in actual combat must eventually face actual combat," she said, and then asked again, "The progress of the psionic choir How? Can the psionic singer Wendy trains come in handy now?"

"I'm afraid it still needs a little adjustment," Carmel said with some embarrassment, "although we have successfully integrated the low-frequency oscillations in the song of the siren into the nerve thorns, and the magic device has greatly shortened the training period of the psionic singer, However, it still takes a certain amount of time for the human body to adapt to 'casting outside the body', and even psionic singers who have passed the adaptation training are very unstable. The nerve thorns will greatly expand the original magic perception range of human beings, especially the military models... We are Find a way to solve this problem.”

"This kind of technology involving the spiritual and mental fields, it is necessary to be careful," Hetty sighed, "It doesn't matter, everything can't go smoothly. Even if there are no psychic singers, we at least have mental protection systems and neural networks. The 'human barrier' in the world, we are not without means."

After making some arrangements, Carmel and Soldrin also left.

Finally, Heidi was the only one left in the huge conference room.

After standing quietly for a while, letting the overheated mind finally cool down, the Cecil butler finally sat back on the chair a little tired and took a long breath.

...

Under the morning light, the communication tower is running at full power, and the rune rings floating in the force field are slowly rotating in the cold wind of winter, from the Winter Wolf Castle to the Shadow Swamp, from the northern reclaimed land to Aldernan, one after another. The communication tower relayed the urgent battle report from the border to a distance, and finally arrived at the table of Rosetta Augustus.

Even Emperor Typhon, a talented and shrewd man, would be stunned by such explosive news.

In the royal study of the Obsidian Palace, Rosetta supported the table with both hands, leaned forward like a falcon, and stared at Pedinan who was standing in the room: "Sir Pedinan, the situation exceeded our expectations."

After so many years, Ferdinand once again felt suffocating pressure: "Your Majesty, I don't understand... why the Knights of the Iron River..."

"Because the God of War is a 'God of War', because the God of War needs a war," Rosetta's face was particularly gloomy, "We have always ignored... We only knew that there was a problem with the Church of God of War, but we didn't think that their god wanted to do What... He needs a war, as long as it's a war, it can be chaos within Typhon, or it can be... a full-scale war externally."

Pei Dinan said in a hurried tone: "Your Majesty, do you think Andersa..."

"She should have withdrawn to the Winter Wolf Fort defense line at this moment - according to the worst situation, Sir Ferdinand, the worst situation," Rosetta said in a deep voice, "The Cecilians should have received news from the border, and they will be summoned. Our ambassadors, and contacted Aldenan, they should have done so... We'll draw up a letter now, clarifying the situation, this is a war that shouldn't have broken out!"

"Will they accept it?" Ferdinand couldn't help but said, "If the Knights of the Iron River have launched an attack, then this is by no means as simple as border friction. Perhaps the troops of Changfeng Fortress have already begun..."

"Whether they believe it or not, we must have such a reply," Rosetta stared into the eyes of the old duke, "Then, order the Empire's third and fourth mobile knights to move towards the Winter Wolf Fort and Winter Fort defense lines, At the same time, cut off all the railways connected to Cecil - pull up those mechanical bridges, and don't let their mobile fortresses rush in until the situation is clear!"

Pei Dinan was stunned.

Clearly, while Rosetta is still seeking to clear up the misunderstanding through diplomatic dialogue, he is also mentally prepared for all-out war.

The old duke bowed his head: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

In the shortest time, a concise, sincere and well-organized letter was drafted. Looking at the ink marks on the paper, Pei Dinan couldn't help sighing softly: "If only this letter could stop the situation... …”

"Although we are preparing for the worst, I still believe that this letter will work - the Cecilians noticed the hidden dangers of the gods earlier than us, and they also had the experience of facing 'sacred disasters', if They are willing to calm down and think about it, and they will definitely be aware of the abnormality behind the whole thing," Rosetta said slowly, "The most important thing now... is to prevent the situation from continuing to deteriorate, and to prevent the chaos from the god of war from continuing to ferment.

"Sir Pedinan, activate that list-all officers and nobles who are in close contact with the Church of God of War and whose belief is higher than the oath of loyalty must immediately leave key positions. The freezing and transfer of key powers will be carried out according to the plan, and the Church of God of War will be completely blocked immediately. After the Pope was called by the Lord, the royal family helped the Holy See to maintain the situation in the name of isolating all priests and keeping them away from the army..."

"Your Majesty," Ferdinand said with concern, "under such a tense situation, doing so may further weaken the combat capability of Typhon's army and affect the domestic stability - the Cecilians will launch an attack on all fronts at any time."

"The bigger threat is to keep people who can get out of control at any time in our national system -- I don't want to do that, but we've got no choice," Rosetta stared into Ferdinand's eyes. The crisis, perhaps what you and I have faced, is the biggest crisis that the entire Typhon Empire has faced... We are not prepared enough, but in the face of divine disasters, mortals will never be sufficiently prepared. Do our best Come on, Ferdinand."

"...I understand," Ferdinand took a deep breath. At this moment, he seemed to have returned to decades ago, back to the place where Rosetta Augustus had not yet ascended to the throne, and the Typhon Empire was as old as before. Like Ansu, who is deeply mired in the quagmire, the era of domestic crises - the suffocating pressure, the future hidden in the chaotic fog, the situation where you will fall down at any time, the years in memory and the situation in front of you have a subtle overlap, All this made his heart that was no longer young beating, "We will overcome the crisis again, Your Majesty."

"Of course it is."

...

Ferdinand hurriedly came to the communication tower of the Obsidian Palace, holding a letter in his hand that was used to clarify the situation and was written by Emperor Rosetta himself.

He wants to send the content of this letter to Cecil City through the communication line and the Cecilian's magic net communication - in a sense, this may already be the last chance to prevent the situation from sliding into the abyss.

He stepped through the gate, passed the guards who were paying tribute to him in the lobby on the first floor, and got on the lift platform leading to the upper floor of the communication tower. He came to the receiving and dispatching center of the facility, and as soon as he stepped off the platform, he saw a panicked expression. The mage on duty, who was in a hurry, was running towards this side.

"Sir!" The mage saw Archduke Pedinan, and immediately raised the paper in his hand and shouted, "Emergency communication from Cecil City!"

"let me see!"

Pei Dinan took the transcribed document and quickly swept his gaze over it.

Everything was as expected by His Majesty the Emperor - the battle that took place on the border between the two countries had angered the Cecilians, and now the two countries stood before the abyss of war.

Both sides are sliding towards the bottom of the abyss.

"Immediately send it to His Majesty's study." He returned the transcript to the mage and said quickly, at the same time he took a big step and walked towards the sending and receiving center of the communication tower.

Now that he has received the question from the Cecil, he can now send the reply drafted by His Majesty without any further waiting.

This matter cannot be handed over to any servant or mage.

He entered the sending and receiving center. In a not too big room, the magic circle was running quietly on one side of the wall. The platform in the center of the room was inlaid with a huge crystal, and the surface of the crystal was full of brilliance.

After ordering the mage on duty to adjust the forwarding parameters, Pei Dinan came to the platform. He glanced at the contents of the handwritten letter again, then put his hand on the crystal, and began to concentrate while injecting magic power. The information is transcribed into the crystal—

"... Intervention and sabotage at the economic, cultural and even the level of our country's internal affairs have made the Typhons intolerable... Armed provocations on our borders several times... Declare war... to defend our..."

The crystals on the platform flickered quietly, and the information transcribed into it had already crossed a long distance in an instant, reaching the next communication tower, from Aldernan to the northern reclaimed land, from Shadow Swamp to Winter Wolf Castle, and soon it was It will complete the final forwarding and enter the magic net of the Cecil.

On the flickering crystal, in the blind spot of Ferdinand's sight, the crystal clear surface reflected a vague figure, Malm Dunit looked at Ferdinand with a smile, with a gentle and loving expression.
