Lund took the remaining people and Jenna to escape from the courtyard, and under the cover of another group of people, moved to a new residence, which is on the north side of the city, close to the mountains and forests.
"Your Excellency Longde, please feel free to ask me if you need anything. I'll take my leave now."
After settling the group of people, it was already evening and the bard stopped disturbing them and turned to leave.
Lund inspected the surrounding environment and then took his daughter to a separate room.
Looking at her father's slightly solemn eyes, Jina also felt a little uneasy without realizing it.
After closing the door and checking, Lund asked his daughter to sit at the table and sat down slowly.
"You left late." He said.
Jenna wanted to explain something, but when the words came to her mouth, she slowly closed her mouth, lowered her head and said, "Yes."
"All this is just the beginning. Now there are overt and covert fights and undercurrents surging in Fengyan City. It will only get worse in the future. By then, it will be difficult for me to protect you."
"You should make some preparations, and then find an opportunity to go out of the city and go back to school. You won't come back until graduation." The father said as he looked at his daughter.
"But, father's safety..." Jina was a little worried.
"I know that there are some things that I can't avoid." Lund raised his head, looked at the ceiling with swaying lights, and said with a sigh.
"Even if it's not Snow today, there will be other big shots coming to recruit you tomorrow, hoping that I will work hard for them."
"If I don't agree to anyone, I will only offend these people, and the consequences will be even worse. Besides, Black Rock is not big, so where can I hide? There are also my relatives, friends and acquaintances over the years here."
"But once you take sides, you will be dragged into this endless dispute, and the war will not end easily."
"Internally, we must defeat the Bow Hunter Faction and defeat many other giants of the Halberd Faction."
"If you are not careful, you will end up with your head missing."
"Even if I follow the right person, the initially unified Black Rock will, under the urging of Frost Rose, participate in the war with Crancia. The other party has a vast territory and population. This battle will not last 5-10 years.
It won’t end easily, and we don’t know how many people will die in a foreign country by then.”
"Don't think that Sheamus is a good person."
"I can say with certainty that the bard has probably been watching the show for a long time. He just appeared at the most appropriate time."
"Then father still agrees." Jina blurted out somewhat eagerly, then realized something and fell silent.
"You are very smart, Jenna. Yes, I don't have many choices. If I don't agree to him, I'm afraid the end will be even worse." Lund said slowly.
"Are there no other options?"
Jenna whispered, recalling her experiences along the way. Neither the Bowhunting Faction nor the Halberd Faction were good, and so were the many mercenaries in the city. There were many hills inside, each pursuing their own interests.
Are there no good options? Why are there only bad and worse options in front of her? Her heart was filled with confusion.
"Yes, there is no good choice. We can only choose the lesser of the two. Maybe this is the helplessness of reality."
Even this man, who was as sharp as a sword in the eyes of outsiders, was full of sighs in his words at this time.
"Go back, Jena. Go back to Emenas, study hard there, and one day in the future, when you are strong enough, you may be able to come up with a solution to the problem." Lund touched his daughter's hair.
"Father......"
Feeling her father's rough and thick hands, Jenna made a slight sound.
"But even if I graduate from Emenas, will I be able to find a solution to the problem?"
"In the past, there were many geniuses who graduated from Emenas every year in Black Rock. There should be many people full of ideals among them. But today's Black Rock has not changed because of this..."
Jenna thought about the names in her memory, which she saw on the school's roster. Some of them left the country and went to other places, some joined local forces, and they themselves became leaders of one party.
Similar to the previous ones, some things are like pebbles, making a splash in the water and finally dissipating without a trace.
Will she really be able to change the country when she graduates? She is not confident.
The water in the pond has become filthy, and no matter how good the fish enters it, it will only be dyed the same black color, otherwise it will be difficult to survive.
What a terrible country.
The beautiful impressions she had in her childhood slowly collapsed from what she saw and heard along the way. The reason why she felt beautiful in the past was just the narrow side of her hometown. She used to think that this was all Black Rock had to offer. Unexpectedly, this was actually extremely rare.
few.
"Maybe, there is still hope for everything." Lund patted Jina on the shoulder, and then took his hand back.
"Sleep well. I'll arrange an opening in a few days to take you out of the city."
A sleepless night.
Jenna tossed and turned in bed and fell asleep very late.
----------
Needle County.
Lorraine Hill collected many logs from the surrounding forests, steamed them to dryness, made them into wooden boards, and placed them on the side of the yard. Then she began to try to carve out the anti-gravity array in the laboratory.
First of all, you need to prepare a carrier to hold the magic power, and for such a thing, the general choice is to take extraordinary gems extracted from Warcraft.
Afterwards, the gemstone will be modified, refined, re-engraved, solidified, tested, and auxiliary structures added, etc.
Finally, after about two weeks of continuous experiments, Lorraine Hill finally restored a rudimentary anti-gravity core.
A football-sized core floated slowly on the experimental table, emitting a faint light.
[Floating Core] (Rare Silver Level): It can carry a maximum weight of 3000kg, allowing it to float smoothly in the air.
The introduction was unpretentious, but the result made Lorraine Hill happy. Although she could fly herself, she also wanted to try building her own airplane or airship.
Just do it.
In the following time, except for the occasional inspection of Iron Felt City, Lorraine Hill spent the rest of his time in the yard, building the wooden airship in his mind.
Everything seems to go back to when I was a child, just like building building blocks, or building a robot figure, with the construction of the keel, the structure of the cabin, the placement of the floating core, the assembly of the sail, the testing of the transmission device, etc.
A small airship slowly took shape in the yard.
Its whole body is made of wooden boards, which is relatively light. The outer shell is painted orange, and the white sails and oars look like an oversized carp.
[Carp Airship] (Excellent Silver Level): Although it is not large in size, it is light and flexible, consumes less magic power, and has excellent overall structure utilization.
"Then, today is the time for the test flight."
In the courtyard, the girl was wearing a white dress, covering the sun from the sky with her hands, looking at this brand new small airship, which could only hold up to six people, and its oval shape was a bit cute.
"Come on, Mira, you will become the first pilot of the Rabbit Ears tribe and go down in history."
"No, Lord Sage, can this really fly?" Mira's ears shook uneasily, holding the joystick with both hands, and looked at the silver-haired girl beside her uneasily.
