When Daisy and the others set foot on the road to the north, Ska also went to the north. But he asked a companion to pretend to be Marco to distract the pursuers. Zhang Mei and the real Marco came from another road.
The road heads north.
In the end, the two finally met on a train. Since Daisy and Liu Weifeng were not involved, the process here was the same as the original plot.
Kimblee discovered that the Marco he was chasing was not real. After a fight between Scar and Kimblee, Kimblee was seriously injured and escaped.
On the other side, Daisy and the others finally arrived in the north. It snows all year round in the north, so Daisy and brothers Edward can only move forward according to the address given by Major Armstrong.
When they were preparing to go to the north, Major Armstrong also gave them a letter. There was also Armstrong's sister in the north, known as the Queen of the North. She had been guarding the North and blocking Drachma's attack.
The refinement of the land requires enough bloodshed to be activated. The civil strife in Ishval was deliberately provoked for this reason. But here, it is because of the war, so there is no need to care about it at all.
The three of them had just walked in the wind and snow for a while when they were attacked by others.
The man was a big man, and his right hand was a combat robotic arm. Unlike Edward, who had a normal human arm, this robotic arm was like a real weapon. The most important thing was that his clothes were military clothes.
But he seems to have regarded them as Drachma's spies.
While Daisy was watching the battle between Edward and him, she said: "We are not suspicious elements. We are the national alchemists, and this is the Fullmetal Alchemist, Edward. I am the Earth Alchemist, Daisy.
West."
But the other party didn't seem to believe what they said and continued to fight with Edward.
Soon, the battle ended because other soldiers appeared around them with guns. For safety, they immediately chose to surrender.
On the way to being escorted, Daisy said to Edward: "I can clearly see the reason for the failure just now. Your robotic arm is different from his."
"Of course, mine is an arm, and his is a weapon."
"No, that's not what I'm talking about. Rather, your robotic arm should not have been modified. In this cold weather, it was obviously affected. And his robotic arm should not be made of iron, or rather
Special metal so it won’t be affected in cold weather.”
"Oh, is that so?"
After the three were taken outside a city wall, a queen-like person came out and asked, "Who are you?"
This queen was Major Armstrong's sister, Olivia Mira Armstrong. Edward quickly introduced their identities, and one of his subordinates also found Major Armstrong's letter of recommendation.
But Olivia tore up the letter without even looking at it and said, "I don't look at other people's recommendations here. I believe what I see. Also, what's the matter with you?"
Of course she was talking about Daisy. Daisy had no choice but to tell her previous statement again. The other party probably believed it, because at least there was no decision to shoot Daisy on the spot.
Finally, she said: "You guys come in. Let me say it first, I will not treat you as children. This is the chasm, Briggs. The world of the weak and the strong."
After entering, a responsible mechanic began to say to Edward: "Frostbite on the epidermis. Because this kind of ordinary mechanical armor will cause frostbite to the connected skin, both materials and lubricants need to be replaced. Where is the dedicated mechanic?
?The client is coming to the north and he didn’t tell you anything?"
"I didn't tell her I came to the north."
"If you don't want to die, just ask him to come to the north on a business trip and change it for you."
At this time, the man who fought with Edward also came out and asked: "So, why are you bringing this ordinary mechanical armor? You haven't passed the headquarters yet."
Speaking of this, Edward became angry again: "I originally wanted to ask Major General Armstrong for help. I brought my recommendation letters. But she didn't listen at all..."
Just in the middle of speaking, the door was opened, and Major General Olivia said: "Call me? Hongdou Ding."
"Hong...Dou...Ding..." If he hadn't been frightened just now, Edward would have taken action long ago.
"So, tell me? The reason for coming here without going through the headquarters is the empty armor and the woman."
"I don't want too many people to know about the things here."
The doctor next to him said: "Don't worry. Everyone here has their own problems, and it's not unusual to not want others to know."
Daisy said: "But if you find out, you will have to go to a military court, or even be directly assassinated, and die in an unknown manner. If you are lucky, you will die in the line of duty, if you are unlucky, you will be a murderer, and you will be charged with treason or something like that."
."
"Wait a minute, Daisy, you don't want to tell everything."
"I already know." Major General Olivia said: "Although you look different from me and I know Daisy, but since you are with Hongdou Ding, then it is you. I already know the general situation of this country. So
Do you have anything else to do when you come to the north?"
"You got it?"
"Hmm. Is there anything else?"
Later, Edward told the news about looking for the little girl with the panda and asking about alchemy. Since there was no such technology, Major General Olivia finally agreed to help Edward find the girl.
Afterwards, they were led by Lieutenant Myers to a passage. They happened to find that the person cleaning up the icicles was lazy, so they were responsible for cleaning up the icicles.
On the way, they also learned that the other party was also from Ishvar and the reason why he managed to survive here without being purged by the military.
During the cleaning process, they also met two acquaintances. One was Warrant Officer Falman. He was just an acquaintance of Edward, but Daisy didn't know him. The other one was Lieutenant Colonel Hughes, whom both of them were familiar with.
It is because of him that Major General Olivia has known about the affairs of this country for a long time. However, because the time was not ripe, he has not made any big moves.
Edward and Alphonse were also surprised when they saw Mars Hughes turned into a suit of armor. Later, they found out that it was Daisy who did it.
"Ah, I didn't expect to see Brother Edward and Miss Daisy here again. What a coincidence."
Daisy looked at the things in their hands that were the same as hers, and said, "So, you two are doing this lowest level of work now?"
