Chapter 1050 1048. Retirement and Eternal Battle

When Earl Lyon, who had disguised himself and came to the Murphy's Hammer in low profile at night, saw his son, the latter was wearing a hospital gown in the airship canteen, eating at the rate of two bites and a meat bun in front of four halflings. The cook looked at him in horror as he showed off the late night snacks he had prepared for a boatload of people.

Frazier already had seven empty steamed bun cages on hand, as well as three large plates of eaten fried rice and a bowl of spicy and sour fish soup with only the base seasoning left.

This is almost enough food to feed a team of five strong men, but looking at Brigadier General Frazier's hungry look at this time, you can tell that he is still far from full. This inhuman amount of food really goes to the halfling cook. a lesson,

My dear, are all the Plantagenets unparalleled bastards?

The Earl of Lyon was also shocked by his son.

On the one hand, the amount of food is really amazing.

On the other hand, the aristocratic education you received since childhood taught you such a starving ghost eating attitude?

This is too disgraceful!

Why don't you just hold the bowl and drink the soup like those barbarians?

Unqualified!

Zero points!

The count tightened his grip on his cane and wanted to step forward to talk to his son, but as soon as he took a step forward, he was stopped by the old butler beside him.

The old butler Huguenot stared closely at the strange skin color difference on the young master's left arm. The sense of danger coming from the golden assassin made him feel that the person sitting in front of him was not the familiar young master Fraser, but a hungry ancient beast.

Danger!

"Something is very wrong, sir."

The old housekeeper whispered:

"That thing just looks like a young master, but it's not."

"What are you talking about?"

Earl Lyon immediately became anxious and scolded:

"Isn't that my son?"

"But the news you received said that the young master was seriously injured and contaminated by Chaos, and was forced to undergo amputation surgery to save his life. However, look at the thing in front of you! He has no wounds at all, and he is so healthy that it is scary. "

The old housekeeper said vigilantly:

"You should exit immediately and leave this to me."

"That's my son, Huguenot!"

The count shook his head and said:

"I recognize him. I won't admit it wrong. He is Fraser. I don't care what changes have happened to him. I only care that my son can return safely. I believe he will not hurt me. Get out of the way!"

"master!"

"Step aside!!!"

The earl's tone became indifferent, causing the loyal old butler to grit his teeth, clear a path, hold the dagger hidden in his waist, and follow Leon step by step to get closer to Fo, who was preparing to start the ninth cage of vegetable buns. Razer.

The latter also looked happy when he saw his father coming over. Just as he was about to stand up, his expression changed. He sat back down with a regretful expression, picked up the buns and continued to eat.

"You should eat slower."

The Count sat on the chair opposite his son.

He glanced at the food plate next to him, suppressed his inner worry and said:

"And don't you have a little too much appetite?"

"To tell you the truth, father, I was already full when I finished the first plate of fried rice, but this pitiful amount of calories was not enough for 'it'."

Fraser said with a grimace while eating with a "terrible" posture:

"In the past few days, it has been consuming its own energy to support my life. Now it will undoubtedly eat back the lost energy. You can wait outside for a while, and it will be about half an hour." It can make it feel slightly satisfied.

Three points full is a safe threshold.

Ms. Mosina told me that it is best to stay above this limit at all times to prevent it from becoming restless. "

"it?"

The count immediately caught the hidden meaning in his son's words. He frowned and asked:

"So the reason why you can return to such a healthy posture is because of 'it'? Can you tell me, what is it?"

"No inconvenience, Father, as long as you don't have nightmares tonight just from hearing this."

While stuffing delicious buns into his mouth, Fraser told Count Lyon everything that happened to him, and did not hide the symbiotic crystal.

Although he has complicated feelings for his father, the Brigadier General will never lie in front of his father. Just as Count Lyon cherishes him, the Brigadier General also regards his father as the most precious relative in his life.

Especially after the death of their mother, it is no exaggeration to say that apart from the wealth that rivaled the country and the authority of one person over ten thousand people, the two men were so poor that they only had each other.

Even if their relationship is not the classic fatherly and filial relationship, it is definitely genuine.

After listening to his son's description, the well-informed earl was filled with excitement. He stroked his cane, thought for a moment, and said in a serious tone:

"Then you must retire from the army, son. It is always difficult for people in war to control their minds. For others, the result of losing control of their emotions is nothing more than an angry mess, but for you it is fatal. thing.

You should have retired a long time ago, Frazier.

After the war at the Maginot Line is over, it's time for you to return to your rightful place.

You defied me, and this adventure nearly sent you to hell.

I would rather you be inactive for the rest of your life than experience the terrible disaster of almost losing you again. You can't be so selfish, son, you have to think about your poor father. "

"I will obey your ideas."

Fraser nodded and said:

"My war is over, and I will apply for retirement and return home after returning to the Pioneer Legion.

But as I just said, father, when I accepted the new life brought by the symbiosis, the responsibility given by the Creator became my mission in the second half of my life. I will move forward in the darkness with Ron, and will Uproot those villains who are hiding in the shadows and watching the world!

This will be an eternal service.”

"So, you left the battlefield but put yourself into a more dangerous situation?"

Earl Lyon was a little angry.

He tapped his stick on the ground and yelled:

"Can't you do something that young people of your age should do? Why can't you spend as much as other young people, live a life of drunkenness and boredom, and live a boring and boring young life? God, I never thought that one day I actually feel hopeless because you are too ambitious.

Maybe it’s because my demands on you since childhood were too high.”

"Don't worry, father, I won't do those dangerous things alone."

Fraser shrugged, stuffed the last vegetarian bun into his mouth, picked up the clam chowder served by the awed halfling chef next to him, and drank it all in one gulp.

He let out a satisfying moan, then took out his handkerchief and wiped his mouth in an elegant manner.

At least in this moment, he turned back into the child that made the count proud and satisfied.

He picked up the high-calorie egg roll pastry next to him and put it into his mouth. The large amount of sugar made the symbionts in his body feel satisfied. Even Fraser's tone softened and he said:

"I will learn to inherit the family's property as you wish and become an excellent head of the family. At the same time, I will also make good use of the family's wealth and power to advance this cause given by the Creator to a higher level.

I once heard a thrilling story about "Baitman" from my foreign friends. That story tells the legend of a man of my family putting on a cloak to protect the city.

Great story, put me in a good mood.

But I have always felt that the Dark Knight's method of fighting crime was too outrageous. He could obviously use his other identity to do greater things.

Father, I will be the best successor in your mind.

But I would also be someone else. "

Fraser stood up, helped his father up, and said softly:

"I will bring our family into true greatness. Of course, after that, I will transfer the inheritance rights to you and Aunt Runa's children. After fulfilling your expectations, I will set off again to complete my Another life.

In Transia.

You know, there's a girl waiting for me.

I will never be able to get close to her in Capay's name, but when I can finally unburden myself in the future, I will rush to her side as soon as possible. "

The count fell silent.

A few minutes later, he said to the old butler Huguenot with a subtle smile beside him:

"What else can I say? My child is very good, even outstanding, but unfortunately, he is a little too good. This may also be a pity."

"This is a good thing, sir."

Old Huguenot comforted him softly:

"Now that the young master has decided to return to the life path you have arranged for him, it means that you can no longer worry about inheritance and focus on your own career. I will go with the young master to pack his luggage. Maybe you You should take this time to complete the necessary conversations with the owner of this airship.

He is waiting for you. "

"Um."

The Earl nodded, said goodbye to his children temporarily at the door of the restaurant, and led Adele, who was waiting next to him, to the captain's cabin.

When he opened the door, he saw Murphy standing by the porthole with his hands behind his back in a standard aloof vampire posture in the dark night, looking down at the group of Genoese refugees who were nervously "walking" in the night below.

Carrying large and small bags, they were led by the snakehead of the Wolfsbane clan and carefully boarded the boat waiting by the lake along the gap in the pioneering legion's defense line.

These poor panic-stricken people abandoned the past and crossed the no longer safe lake in the night with longing for the future. Any disturbance would make them alert like frightened rabbits. As long as they reached the other side, they could enter Telang. In the management area of ​​West Asia.

But this is not the end of their "walking the line" journey.

After reaching the other side of the lake, you have to pass through the area where the murlocs ambush under the leadership of the snake leader of the Blood Rat Gang on the opposite side to reach the edge of the Smuggler's Wood, and then visit the mysterious chief of the Blood Claw clan and the powerful "Local Snake" Lord Nash there. .

After handing over a "toll fee" that is not cheap for the refugees, Nash will use his "contacts" to arrange for these refugees to go to the factory area under construction in the Under Armor Hills, where he will obtain supplies for these refugees. A job that is enough to support a family.

Although this "going to Transia by wire" business has been around for less than half a month, it already has a complete and mature industrial chain, and there is money to be made in every link it handles.

As long as Transia's thirst for manpower continues, this industry will continue to function stably. It is said that members of the Blood Rat Gang are already planning to open up a second and third road on the border between Kafhoka and Sachs. A similar industrial chain.

"They are running towards freedom. At least they think they are running towards freedom."

Murphy did not look back, maintaining the posture of the "king-forcing" and said in a gentle voice:

"Unfortunately, what awaits them in Transya is the heavy work of rebuilding the territory.

I will give them spacious and bright dormitories, delicious and nutritious food, a salary that is not too generous but enough to make a living, an expectation for their new hometown, and finally a little visible prosperity.

Prosperity created with their own hands.

But there will be no freedom, only no freedom. Sir Lyon, do you think I am a bad person for this?"

"You are at least not a good person."

Count Lyon has also seen the world.

When King Louis was still a literary youth who was hunting for beauties and hooking up, Count Lyon followed His Majesty, which gave him rich experience in facing young superiors, and according to the various reports on Murphy by the intelligence collectors of the Capet family, the count already had a preliminary impression of Murphy in his heart.

He knew how to answer to make Murphy feel satisfied.

So, the count leaned on his cane and whispered:

"Only those who lack freedom the most will boast that they come from the so-called "free" country all day long. Those most common things that can be seen in daily life will not be shown off by people who are already accustomed to it, so I will believe that Transia is a free place.

The best thing is that it can provide these refugees with more than just freedom."

"Ah, what a perfect answer, Lord Count."

Murphy turned around and looked at Count Lyon.

He nodded slightly and said:

"Then I have enough reason to believe that in the future, the country dominated by the Capet family will be full of everything you and I want to see. Before we start talking, let's discuss some favorite gossip.

I heard that in the preparations for the construction of the railway that the Plantagenet Kingdom is about to start in the Antani area, the Capet family failed to gain the leading position in the project.

King Louis' most trusted finance minister gave the railway contract that could make many people rich overnight to another family. What's worse is that the family has just become rich in recent years. Compared with your family background, it is just an out-and-out upstart.

It lacks both foundation and inheritance.

Then can I understand that King Louis, who is far away in the foggy city, feels that the Capet family can no longer Continue to expand?

I heard that in addition to completely owning the Cato region, you have also controlled 40% of the industries in the Anjou region. The Sivir family, which has only cooperated with you for less than a year, has already controlled one-third of the land around Nantes and began to monopolize part of the arms market in the Plantagenet Kingdom.

Excuse me, Lord Earl, the way you and the members of your system eat is a bit scary, especially for a ruler.

You see, although I am not in the mainstream, I can barely be considered a ruler. "

Murphy stared at Earl Lyon and said:

"If you can't change your style of doing things, I guess King Louis' next knife will soon fall on you. Such a wise ruler will not allow an uncontrolled "Leviathan" to appear in his country. "

"However, you don't know that His Majesty has decided to restart the exploration of the New World."

Count Lyon said expressionlessly:

"The Capet family has been given the responsibility of forming an expedition fleet for His Majesty. Our position in the Plantagenet Kingdom is still stable, so if you plan to sow discord..."

"No, no, no, I'm just reminding you! Out of friendship, I advise you not to rush to the New World. The powerful Aztec Kingdom has been very angry recently."

Murphy shook his head and said:

"Because of the shameless rampage of the White Devil, King Louis has to face His Majesty Osiris's Sunset Expedition if he wants to colonize the New World. I don't think the current Plantagenet Kingdom can challenge such an extraterritorial behemoth.

Your only hope is in the Holy Spirit Plains further north in the New World.

It has been slaughtered by the cultists. It is simply the most perfect place for colonization. land, but when King Louis gets the rich new land, it means he has to give up some of his original things.

Sir Lyon, I don't like to hide my head and show my tail, nor do I like to beat around the bush, so I'll say it directly.

In the future'Principality of Capet', I hope the Church of Holy Light can become the state religion, I hope that both of us can become allies, and I also hope that the Capet family can stand on the right position on some sensitive issues. "

"Those things are too far away, I may not be able to see them when I close my eyes and bury myself in the ground."

Count Lyon shook his head and said:

"So let's talk about something more realistic, sir.

Regarding the life of my poor child, I chose a wife for him, but he didn't like her. The one he liked was taught by you to become an outstanding woman that I have to respect.

Therefore, I hope my child will not be alone in the future. "

"That depends on Brigadier Fraser to find a way. We in Transia don't have the tradition of forcing girls to marry. As we all know, women in our place are not easy to mess with. I don't want to be shot in the head by Miriam. "

Murphy shook his head and said:

"Besides, your son's failure in pursuing Miss Biqi has nothing to do with me. What he should change is not his style, but his gender. People don't like men anyway.

I invited you here tonight just to strengthen our cooperation, but now it seems that our cooperation can be extended to a deeper level.

There are traces of dusk in the Plantagenet Kingdom, and Brigadier General Fraser will not let them go. He and I are the most determined companions in this matter. The best thing is that after he retires and returns to his boring life as a nobleman, he will have enough time and resources to deal with the dangerous lurkers hidden among you.

I hope you will not stop him. After all, it will not harm you and your majesty to eliminate those lunatics. "

"They almost killed my child!"

The Earl of Lyon said in a deep voice:

"I wish I could strangle them to death, so of course I will cooperate and support my child, so I wish us a happy cooperation in all aspects, Your Excellency the Governor. "
