"Well, Claire, thank you for taking care of me." Rean said.
"Well, be careful on the road."
"Oh, she is so beautiful." said the senior.
"Although I have a bad feeling." Shala said, "It's you."
Afterwards, Group A and Group B reunited and boarded the train to the fortress together.
....
Sara: "I see, it seems like a lot of things happened in Group A."
"Well, I still can't believe that I really saw the soul of the saint." Aite said.
"Oh, you must be just dreaming, right?" March said.
"Humph, whatever you say." Jussis said.
Miriam: "Really, I definitely saw it."
"Forget about ghosts and all that." Rean said, "I think it's not wrong to have someone on that occasion."
"Anyway, let's put this matter aside for now. More than that, I'm more concerned about the fact that Torvald and the Sword of Light maker went out."
"Even the biggest among the big guys like Duke Kane seems to be taking action." Sarah said.
The place that Group B went to was not under the control of the empire, so it was not ruled by the nobility." Alyssa said.
"Remember, it was the area that was merged eight years ago." Gaius said.
"That's right, if there is any dispute, it will become the pattern of the imperial territory." said the senior.
"It later became a special economic zone along the coast, and it was quite prosperous."
"The tax revenue there is not given to the nobles, but directly to the empire." Yosis: "Huh, I can understand why the Iron Bloods and the others stood upright in it."
"Well, let's not talk about this matter. The time when Crossbell started holding the trade conference was very concerning, and the solution line has been silent since then, which is also concerning." Sarah said.
"Let's put it this way." Rean said.
"Indeed, it's very unnatural," Laura said.
"Does this have something to do with the reason why we want to go to the fortress?" Emma said.
‘Well, although it’s not a direct relationship, there is still a relationship. Let’s just treat this part as a surprise after arriving at the scene.’ Shala said.
"Speaking of which, are there any of you who have taken the train and passed through the fortress?"
"Oh, I see, it's just Miriam." Sarah said.
"Haha, now I'm looking forward to the reaction." the senior said.
"Indeed." Fei said.
"Ahaha." Aite said.
Rean: "What's going on?"
"Well, my roommate has seen it."
"I know, it feels very disappointing." Fei said.
"Hmm, I think he is obviously an official, but it feels really childish." Miriam said.
"what does that mean?"
"Then use these eyes to confirm directly." Laura said.
Soon everyone arrived at their destination.
"Thank you very much for riding. Fortress Eyes is reached."
"It's really interesting."
Laura: "It's finally here... hmm? What is that?"
At this time Laura saw the train running.
"Oh, this one is famous." Li En said.
"Instructor Shala, what do you plan to have us do in this fortress?"
"Of course, look at the essence and what the underlying power is," Sala said.
"Who are those people?"
"Repair crew," Salad said.
"This kind of thing is relatively rare," Li En said.
"I have the impression that Crossbell is in front of me."
"That's a big economic and trade building." Emma said.
"You can see the Orchid Tower from the top floor of this fortress," Sala said.
"Oh, you are finally here."
"Ah, it's instructor Nethar." Aite said.
"Hello, all members of the special edition, including my name, are here." Shala said.
"Understood, welcome to the fortress."
"I am Nethar, who belongs to the fourth back. During the internship, I will be responsible for introducing you and serving as an instructor for special courses." Knight said.
"Then, please come with me."
When we arrived at the classroom, everyone was seated.
"This special internship includes the remaining two days today. During this period, you do not need to conduct internship topics."
“Instead, you must attend on-site visits and special courses.”
"What does that mean?" March said.
"Today at 2 o'clock, the fortress will hold training for the 4th and 5th garrison teams at the nearby training ground. You should go and visit.
"Visit?" Rean said.
"It's the garrison led by Aite's father. It's known as the strongest in the empire, and this instructor Knight is running it."
"Let's not talk about my matters for now. As I said just now, you are not participating, but visiting.
In this sense, you may think it is an easy job, but in short, please go and witness it for yourselves.”
"That's all I have to say. It's 11:50 now. The cafeteria is already ready. Let's fill our stomachs first and then get ready for the afternoon training."
"Isn't this piece of brown bread too hard?" said March.
"I wish I could add a little more spice," Emma said.
Jussis: "This is simply too exaggerated."
"Although there have been rumors, I didn't expect this to be like this." Li En said.
Gaius: "Well, the restaurants in the same country are obviously not bad."
"It would be nice to improve it a little bit."
"The taste has not changed, I really miss it." said the senior.
Aite: "Actually, I was shocked when my father brought me here."
Miriam: “Why does it taste so bad again?”
"It always feels like it reminds me of the past," Shala said.
"I think just cheese and apple pie would be good," Fee said.
"The food is like this. Everything used here can be easily stored." Nethar: "This is to ensure that even if something happens, the supply can still be maintained."
"this."
"I see." Li En said, "In order to avoid lowering morale in times of crisis, do you usually eat these coarse foods?"
"Yeah, but not every day, but these foods can be said to be the spiritual symbol of the strongest defense force in the world."
"Whether it's good or bad, we must give our team members a sense of awareness."
"So prepared?" Laura said.
"Although it is similar to mental attention, it is a bit impractical, but I think it is worthwhile to know more about it. Compared with the garrison of the noble territory, they are very rich." Sarah said: "I am just worried about their combat effectiveness if something really happens."
"But a team with delicious food shouldn't be weak."
“The food at Liber is also delicious,” Miriam said.
"Libel's side are all elites." Fei said: "I think it's because they are facing the threat of the empire, so they have a sense of crisis."
"This feels a little complicated," Aite said.
"In short, the most important thing about this kind of thing is balance, balance." Shala said.
"It's not good if you keep eating rough food."
.......
After eating.
"Well, as you heard, we will conduct drills at the drill ground at 2 o'clock today." Sala said: "It is now 13 o'clock and 2 o'clock. You can take your time to prepare."
"There should be a broadcast announcement at 13:30, then follow the instructions."
"Since it is a free activity, can we also visit?" Li En said.
"Of course, these are normal, you're welcome." Shala said, "However, if you are tired from the internship, you can rest in the room."
"This is a rare opportunity, let's go and take a look now." Li En said.
"Okay." Fei said.
Everyone began to move around freely.
"Oh, monitor, are you taking a rest?" Li En said.
"Ahaha, I looked around, and it can only be described as spectacular. I can't help but feel weak in my legs."
Li En said: "Haha, I feel the same way."
"By the way, in Regram, there seems to be a small black shadow following us occasionally recently."
"But since I came here, the area around the fortress seems to have suddenly disappeared," Rean said.
"Is that so? Maybe something is possessed by us."
"What, it sounds terrible." Rean said.
Later, Rean met Shala again.
"Rean, I heard from Torva that there seems to be a mechanical monster appearing on the outskirts of the streets of Regram?"
"Well, Mr. Tovar made a very serious request. Sarah, do you know anything about that?" Rean said.
"Well, it must be a bit of a fate for the guys who made that kind of thing." Shala said.
"It is collectively called the Body-Eating Snake. It is something created by the associations that operate secretly around the world."
"Secret society?"
"Yes, the scale and combat effectiveness are unknown. They are a group of people whose true identities are unknown."
"But they have mastered more advanced technology, and it has caused several big things so far." Sala said.
"There is such a thing. If you haven't seen it, it would be unbelievable." Li En said.
"By the way, those mechanical monsters are called puppet weapons, and they seem to be widely spread through the black market recently." Sara said; "Many people have witnessed it."
"Is that so?" Rean said, "If that's the case, does it mean that that association may also be planning to cause trouble in the empire?"
"Well, the most troublesome thing about forming an association is that it's not always like this." Salad said.
"Puppet weapons like this seem to be mostly for testing performance, but it's better to keep them in mind first."
"I understand, and I will tell others as well." Rean said.
Rean met Laura again on the way.
"Well, I heard my father say it, but this fortress is really huge."
"The Swordsmith of Light is responsible for the swordsmanship of the garrison. When you think about how often he goes to places like this to teach, it's not hard to imagine that he is very busy at work." Rean said.
"Well, I know that too. Although I don't know how my father's guidance will be used, I can look forward to it."
"It seems that the level of training is not bad. If you want to break through this place, you may need to be prepared."
"Fei, why are you saying terrible things again?" Li En said.
"Haha, it's just a joke. I couldn't help but confirm it based on my usual habits," Fei said.
"Oh, are you the special class here to visit?" said the person in charge of the fortress.
"Yes."
"This is the captain of the fifth defense team."
"Nice to meet you." Rean said, "It's really an honor to be invited to visit the fortress this time."
"Well, although he looks very polite, he is a bit weak physically."
"You can't keep up with training like this. Aren't your training methods inadequate, Nate?"
"Well, I'm very sorry."
"But I heard that the people who are teaching them now are Zidian guerrillas. I have also heard of this name."
"Is it really true that this kind of work is handed over to others?"
"Anyway, you're welcome. We have to guard well, so do your best."
"Okay, we will." Rean said.
"I'm leaving." The man left.
"He seems to be a very strict person." Li En said.
"After all, he is the person in charge of this most important defensive stronghold."
Knight said, "You have to be grateful for allowing us to visit despite the tense relationship with Smith at any time."
"Yes, I will keep it in mind," Li En said.
"I'm sorry too."
Later, Rean met Art and Arisa again on the road.
"Ai, I'm training, I feel so heavy." Aite said.
"Li En, you shouldn't have seen him before, right?"
"Well, this is the first time. So you came to Aite to visit, and it is really because of your father's relationship?" Li En said.
"Well, I saw it when he brought me here last time." Aite said, "I understand my father's expectations for me."
"But I feel that no matter how hard I try, I can never be called a person like my father."
"Yes, indeed." Rean said.
"It's really impressive to see so many tanks lined up side by side," Arisa said.
"The main tanks are also made of RF?"
"Although I hate to admit it, it is true. When used in training, the process seems to be running automatically."
"Well, I want to witness the performance of our rf products with my own eyes."
Li En said: "Well, very good, I'm looking forward to it too."
Then Rean left here.
When we arrived at the Communication Bridge, we found the scenery majestic.
"Gaius, Jussis, you two are here."
"Oh, Rean, the atmosphere of hesitation is so different from that of the Jindas, it makes me a little confused."
"Because this type is a real front line unlike the Nord Plateau, that's why it's so big."
"This is what Knight said, you must fight at all times." Gaius said: "In this case, it is really powerful."
"Huh, this place is really awesome. Everything happened unexpectedly. I think it's probably a demonstration to the garrison."
Miriam: "Oh, you are all here."
"What's wrong, Miriam?" Rean said.
"Although you can see clearly, you will be scolded if you enter casually," Miriam said.
"What are you looking at?"
"I'm looking at the Orchid Tower."
"Can it be seen from such a long distance?" Rean said.
"Of course, it's actually a matter of Crossbell's ownership this time."
"It's really incredible." Li En said, "It's really complicated."
I don’t know how this meeting will go, but I always feel like something is coming.
