Monarch of Evernight
Chapter 1185: Seeds of Hope
The floating landscape was settled, and it was decided to leave at a thousand nights, return to the land of neutrality, and leave Song Zining behind.
Song Zining was also informed at this time that Lin Shuai meteorite, he looked at the restoration of calm, on the surface he could not even see any unusual thousand nights, only sighed once, the two people were relatively silent, not even a word of conversation.
Language has never been as empty as it is at this moment, and some of the pain is unbearable even with a touch.
When the fire came, a vast fleet of havoc was formed, but the return journey was empty. The vast majority of the convoys were empty, and even some of the ships were incomplete and no one could be found to fly.
Song Zining and Thousand Nights negotiated that Soho sold many carriers to the Empire. In the aftermath of this campaign, despite heavy losses, the Empire also saw the benefits of large-scale airborne combat by transport vessels. Neutral carriers, though dilapidated, outperform reliable, robust, easy to repair and fit for military use.
There are too many bodies of mercenaries and Zhao Valley's private forces to distinguish them from the Dark Race. They can no longer be identified separately. Some of them have been buried in the void while the battle died in the Palace of the Spirit.
In accordance with common practice, the Empire collected all the fighter nameplates that could be found, then incinerated the bodies, buried the ashes and erected a high tablet on the old site in White City.
At the end of the simple but solemn ceremony, the veterans who survived the dark fire were brought on board for a thousand nights to sail back.
The fleet is made up of battle patrols as flagships, frigates on two-wing alert, and a large transport fleet in the centre. The fleet, almost wounded and slow, sent the temple of the Spirit back to the North at night to rest and repair its equipment. In addition, the environment in the North is mild and beneficial to Carol's injuries.
The road was quiet and the fleet slowly sailed towards a neutral place. Though slow, a few days later, the land of neutrality is still a long way to go.
Standing at the bridge window for thousands of nights, look forward. At the end of the void, the land of neutrality is invisible. Looking away, it was a scattered land mass wrapped in fog. Only by looking forward can we sparsely see the traces of the fall of the Valley Star.
Neutral land approached, the captain repositioned the course, led by a battle patrol, and the vast fleet quietly deflected an angle towards neutral ground.
In the eyes of outsiders, there is a land mass ahead, and that layer of hazy fog is visible only for a thousand nights. As the battle cruises into the fog, there is a slight buzz throughout the ship, and many instrument pointers are beating heavily, and some of the instruments are even sparking.
“Damn, that's it again!” The captain cursed, then released the Force, protected the cockpit, and drank: “What are you still standing there for, why don't you repair it? Replace the broken one and see if there are spare parts on top. By the way, looking for the old models, the older the better! ”
The crew began work quickly, and the captain hurried a few more words and came to the side of the thousand nights, worried: “My lord, I had already changed a batch of parts by the time I got here, but it's still not working. Just keep changing like this, it's going to affect the performance of this ship. ”
“That's how neutral the place is, it doesn't matter, and your opponents here are also antiques. Besides, I'll find you a suitable place to stop the boat.” Thousand Nightways.
The captain looked a little better and said: "My lord, I am not complaining or looking at her, I am not feeling well. ”
Go ahead, the captain leaves the bridge and patrols the whole ship.
This battleship is the empire's newest sharp battleship, the heart and soul of every captain. Although it had been revamped once before it came to neutrality, it was clear that the shipyard underestimated the harsh environment in neutrality. The layer of fog perceived by the thousands of nights has obvious corrosion and destruction, as well as a mixture of void forces, and the material that normally constructs the array of forces simply cannot withstand its corrosion.
What happened on the battle tour was just a little tune, and the fleet passed between the two blocks, and an extraordinarily large piece of land appeared in front of it, the East Sea.
Here, every mercenary can find their way back. The fleet headed straight for South Qingcheng. The land mass gradually magnified in front of the eyes, passing through a cloud, and the outline of a city appeared on the distant horizon.
A mercenary general next to him had to show his happiness and say, "Finally! ”
Sighing at the bottom of his heart, he said, "Yeah, he's back. ”
An officer shouted: "This time back, Lord Thousand Nights, you really have to take us to fucking play! ”
Waking up at night, looking back, the mercenaries on the bridge were excited and their faces filled with joy. Each of these mercenaries is in an extraordinary mood, and in addition to several generals, there are several already hidden trends towards breakthrough warlords.
I didn't expect him to say that at first glance, most of the surviving mercenaries glanced at him with enthusiasm. Those who are still with us today are survivors of the Battle of White City. Many of them showed signs of breakthrough after the holocaust.
Thousand Nights originally thought that nine out of ten victims of the dark fire mercenary war in this service should have died if they were still alive, even if they did not intend to withdraw completely from the mercenary regiment, they should have wanted to stay away from the battlefield. But after a great war, it seemed to have completely ignited these people.
“With so many of our brothers dead this time, I thought you'd want to get some rest and plan again.” Thousand Nightways.
Mercenaries look at me, let me look at you, and finally push out a general in his early thirties.
The general, who would have been the leader of a small mercenary regiment, later led the entire mercenary regiment into a dark fire, tempted by the threat of Ji Tianqing. In the original Dark Fire General, he did not excel, but miraculously survived the Battle of White City. Among the surviving mercenaries, he is now the highest in his original position and the strongest in combat, so he was publicly pushed out.
He gave a gift to Thousand Nights, and he said, "Thousand Nights, which of us mercenaries would have been a day of licking blood with our knives? Death on the battlefield is a good ending. The scariest thing is getting old and wounded, not getting on the battlefield and not doing heavy work. But life is better than death. In the past, there were mercenary regiments to take care of. It was no better than to starve to death in old age. ”
Nodding at night, this is the most common ending for mercenaries in neutral land. According to Song Zining, this is also a natural rule. In order to survive, people in neutral areas have significantly improved their fertility and their personal strength has progressed faster. But the land of neutrality does not feed so many people, so brutal war is the way to reduce the population.
Mercenary groups, big and small, were born to fight. Either they are hired or they fight each other. In short, they are going to fight, they are going to die, otherwise no one will survive.
Even more cruel than this is the everlasting continent at the bottom of the world, poorer in resources, surviving as beasts do, even if young and powerful and unable to get out of the dump.
The general paused and went on to say, "This bloody battle, after all, is just the fate of people like us, it's no big deal. But this time, unlike before, the brothers who died in battle died with dignity at least. At least their wives and their families were bullied without sending them under a fence. You and Lord Zining took us to this battle to make it clear that we mercenaries can die with dignity and without concern. ”
Thousands of nights were totally unexpected.
The mercenaries who died in the Battle of White City, the Empire, were pensioned according to regular army standards, which was one of the conditions for participation in the war. Thousands of nights did not expect that there would be a monument after death, which meant so much to these mercenaries.
Moreover, imperial standard pensions are of great significance to mercenaries in neutral places, whose families can at least live in peace. In the past, the mercenary corps was dissolved because it could not pay pensions. Once the mercenaries died, it was a disaster for the family, and it was not uncommon for wives and daughters to become prostitutes.
The general looked back at his companion and said: “My lord, we have all discussed this before. With you and Lord Zining, we know that we mercenaries are also human beings. So we're not going anywhere, but we want to keep following you to the next place! ”
Thousand Nights hasn't spoken yet, and another elderly general said: “Thousand Nights Lord, this time the pension is divided into three parts, just send one and the other two will remain in the dark fire. After the dark fire, you will not forget us. ”
Thousands of nights smiled bitterly, “You trust me so much...”
“In White City, you are always in the most dangerous place. ”
“Yes, as does Lord Zining. ”
“I can stand here alive because you pulled me out of that werewolf claw! ”
The mercenary generals kept talking.
Raise your hands for the first general and wait for everyone to be quiet. "My lord, although we mercenaries are nothing, we can tell who the real heroes are and who deserves our sincere followers! Don't resign, just say what we need to do in future! Even one more battle like White City is no different! ”
Looking at these mercenaries for the rest of their lives, there is emotion in their hearts.
Mercenaries live in precarious times for nothing but money. The Empire has always had a great deal of pensions for fighters, and the standard is entirely astronomical figures for mercenaries in neutral lands. These mercenaries are willing to give up half of their pensions, as evidenced by their determination to follow a thousand nights and rebuild the dark fires.
One of the oldest mercenaries said: "Lord Thousand Nights, that's how we leave a much higher pension than any other mercenary group. Believe that as long as you take us with you for a day, you will not let the families of your brothers who died in battle suffer. ”
Speaking of which, I suddenly felt a burning sensation on my shoulder. That was promised not only to the surviving mercenaries in front of them, but also to the families of those who had died in the war, which was more than 100,000.
"Lord Thousand Nights, if you will, early reconstruction is not an issue. Many of the descendants of the brothers who died in the war were quite grown up. Our neutral place, after ten years of age, even adults, give them a gun, it will never be worse on the battlefield! ”
The thousand nights finally nodded, “Okay! Stay with me in the future, and I'll take you to the next big world! ”
During the battle tour, a sudden wave of tsunami-like cheers erupted!
A seed, like this.
The fleet came all the way, the wind was calm, and no one was blind enough to come and rob. The poorest and most vicious pirate in outer space, who sees the ship after the war, will also put away all his unwanted thoughts and quietly retreat.
A frigate sailed first towards South Qingcheng and circled over the city for several weeks. See nothing unusual before sending a signal. Huge fleet sailed to South Qingcheng and landed in the takeoff and landing fields.
Ji Rui, the nominal city owner of Nanqing, has been waiting for a long time. At first sight, he walked on a tour of the war. He immediately greeted him with a full smile. He shouted out from afar: “We are so happy to have won! ”
Thousands of nights shook their heads and fainted: “Almost all my brothers died in battle. What is there to celebrate? ”
Gillette was surprised, "Are they all dead? Really? There must have been... 50,000 people there, right? ”
“That's all I came back for.” Thousands of nights finger behind you.
Surviving mercenaries coming down from battle patrols are only a few hundred, not to mention thin in front of the vast hull of battle patrols, compared to the entire fleet.
Ji Rui looked closely at the surviving mercenary and suddenly said: "It's all talent! ”
