I do not know how long it has been……
Slowly opening his eyes, he saw a flickering kerosene lamp. Everything around him was hazy, as if only the kerosene lamp was clear.
After calming down, the surrounding environment gradually became clearer. Outside the pitch-black glass, two beams of incandescent light shone in front, and the white dotted line quickly retreated.
He seemed to be in the cab of a truck, his eyelids were heavy and he was drowsy. His eyes moved to the side, and there was only a hazy shadow on the driver's seat, which seemed to be saying something, but it was vague and could not be heard at all.
"Zizzizi..."
There was a noisy sound of electricity. Looking down, the radio flashed green.
"Longhe Radio, nightly news..."
A female voice with a clear voice without any emotion sounded.
"Breaking news, about an hour ago, in the early morning, the Tianqin Castle Palace was attacked by mysterious troops. The guards suffered heavy losses, and various parts of the palace fell one after another..."
"The powerful families of Tianqin Castle gathered their troops to surround the palace, and the battle was fierce."
"The First and Second Tianqin Army left the defense line and rushed to Tianqin Fort."
"Due to the departure of the Tianqin troops, the eastern coalition forces had a gap in their defense line. The Ice Blue City coalition forces took the opportunity to cross the river..."
"My lord, my lord!"
Suddenly, a sudden voice sounded.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, we are almost here!"
The sound was very loud, as if it was exploding in my ears, and it suddenly drowned out the sound of the radio.
When Chen Xing opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the rapidly reversing highway light, and then the face of an unshaven middle-aged man.
"Sir, you are awake, you are about to arrive at Tianqin Castle."
Chen Xing was in a daze, and it took him a while to realize that he was dreaming just now.
The temperature was a bit cold, so he subconsciously wrapped himself in his businessman's robe, and then asked, "How far is it?"
"About three kilometers." The Dragon Scale Guard's liaison officer replied.
"Okay." Chen Xing picked up the thermos cup next to him, unscrewed it, took a few sips of hot tea, exhaled a breath of hot breath, and finally woke up completely.
"Thank you, Prime Minister." The liaison officer of the Dragon Scale Guard suddenly said something with a very sincere tone.
"What's the hard work?" Chen Xing asked doubtfully. He didn't understand why the other party suddenly said this. Was it hard for him to sleep?
Since when did the Dragon Scale Guard also like to flatter others? Is it because the peace has lasted for a long time and the internal corruption has inevitably begun?
But his question was quickly put to rest.
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister, must have been very busy recently. He can sleep so deeply even in the car." said the liaison officer of the Dragon Scale Guard.
"Uh..." Chen Xing paused and nodded, "It's okay..."
The real reason is that I spent the night busy with Cuilisi before departure, and then spent several hours with Bai Yeliufang who came to see me off the next morning. They fought continuously, and of course I was a little tired.
But he won't tell the real reason. He is the good prime minister that the other party said is diligent, loves the people, and takes care of everything.
After a few minutes, the speed gradually decreased and finally stopped on the side of the road.
Vehicles ahead are being inspected entering the city. Searchlights shone on a group of heavily armed soldiers surrounding the carriage, two of whom climbed up to inspect it. Perhaps in order to ease the tension, the liaison officer of the Dragon Scale Guard rolled down the window, lit a cigarette and started smoking.
"What's your name?" Chen Xing then remembered that after being together for so many days, he still didn't know the other person's name.
"Lu Bin, my hometown is in the eastern wilderness. My father is the mayor of Edge Town, which belongs to the Principality of Tezera." The liaison officer stopped smoking and answered seriously.
"I remember it," Chen Xing said.
"Thank you." Lu Bin nodded in greeting, then looked out the car window, slowly took a puff of cigarette, and said with some melancholy, "My father wanted me to go to Ice Blue City to study, but I ended up becoming a soldier. In the blink of an eye, I was twenty Year……"
"I am also from Edge Town." Chen Xing said.
Lu Bin turned to look at Chen Xing, "I've heard that you are from the eastern wilderness. The conditions there are also very difficult, right?"
"It's okay..." "Have you ever caught gerbils? That thing is so cunning." "I haven't caught gerbils, but corpse dogs have caught quite a few." "Why are you catching them? You can't eat them." "Zombies. Have you heard of Paradise?" "It seems to have some impression. I remember seeing it on the Internet..."
The two chatted, and time passed quickly. The trucks in front drove away one after another, and it was the turn of this vehicle to be inspected.
"Bang bang bang!"
The soldiers with the Tianqin logo slapped the car door roughly. Lu Bin stuck his head out and said with an apologetic smile, "Master, good evening."
"Where did it come from?" the Tianqin soldier asked, tilting his neck.
"It's the same as the previous one. There is a license plate number on the entry form." Lu Bin said.
"Everyone sit tight and don't move." Another Tianqin soldier came up from behind and scanned the cab with an instrument in his hand.
After some scanning, the soldiers went back to the carriage to check.
"What kind of goods are they?" the soldier asked in a routine manner.
"Master, they are all body armor. You can look at them as you like. Our masters are honest people." Lu Bin said with a smile.
After checking up and down for a while, several soldiers got out of the carriage and were about to leave. One of the soldiers suddenly said "Hey" in the direction of the cab, turned around and walked over.
I saw him walking under the car window, stretching his neck and looking at Chen Xing in the cab.
Lu Bin couldn't help but shrink his pupils and tighten his muscles. Because of the examination, Chen Xing did not wear sunglasses and simply dressed up as a businessman.
The Tianqin soldier looked at them for a few times, walked back, and laughed "hehehehe" at the other soldiers.
"Guess what I saw?"
"That businessman..." the soldier pointed in the direction of the cab, "looks like the prime minister of Ice Blue City."
Lu Bin's heart suddenly jumped to his throat, and his fists were clenched, ready to explode at any time.
"Really?" "You'll find out after you go and see it." "Forget it, the captain will see us later and accuse us of deserting." "But it's really similar!" "What's the use of the look? It's not real. "That's also..."
The Tianqin soldiers chatted and walked towards the next truck. Lu Bin breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did he realize that unknowingly, the clothes on his back were completely soaked.
But when he returned to the cab, the Prime Minister looked relaxed and casual, as if nothing had happened just now and he was not worried at all.
The Prime Minister, who has appeared on TV, is so generous that he is not worried about being recognized at all.
In fact, what he didn't know was that the reason why the Prime Minister acted so casually was because he secretly asked the mastermind Sora to modify his personal information.
In this era of network information, people are more willing to believe in the results of system scans rather than what they see with the naked eye.
As long as his personal information is scanned and it turns out that he is not the Prime Minister of Ice Blue City, even if he begs the other party, the other party will not believe that he is the Prime Minister.
To put it simply, a person looks like a woman, with breasts and a butt, and is extremely sexy, but the scan result of the ClearNet database is that he is a man. Then this person is a man, a man beyond reproach. The worst he can do is mutter in his heart, "Shemale!"
Of course, this is only limited to the middle and lower classes of society. The upper classes still prefer to believe what they see with their own eyes.
If Lacey Maris were to come over, no matter what the scan results were, she would come over with her sword drawn. There is a saying that even turns into ashes and knows it!
It's just that the people responsible for checking in and out of the city are all middle- and low-level soldiers, and there are no real upper-level officials, so there is no possibility of discovering Chen Xing's true identity.
It was already three o'clock in the morning when we entered Tianqin Castle.
The convoy got on the ring road, drove for about twenty minutes, got off the viaduct, turned onto a secluded road, and after twists and turns, arrived at a warehouse in a civilian area.
"My lord, please come this way."
Entering the warehouse, the dragon scale guards dressed as porters stood at attention and saluted Chen Xing.
Passing through dozens of rows of shelves and entering the depths of the warehouse, flickering electric sparks came into view. Hundreds of skilled workers were busy assembling modified humans on the parts bed.
Standing on the side are rows of assembled mass-produced modified humans. At this time, the eye lights are turned off and they are on standby.
In the deepest part of the assembly workshop is a combat command center of several hundred square meters, equipped with tactical maps, combat support systems, and logistics distribution systems.
As Chen Xing walked by, the staff members stopped working and stood at attention to salute.
"How much longer?"
This is the first question Chen Xing asks and the question he is most concerned about.
"The arrangement is expected to be completed within fifty-eight hours."
"But..." the temporary person in charge of the hiding spot paused, "we have encountered a problem..."
"What's going on!" Lu Bin's expression changed, he stepped forward and grabbed the other party's collar, and said angrily, "I've only been away for less than a day!"
Chen Xing pressed Lu Bin's shoulders and said in a deep voice, "Solve the problem first, and then hold people accountable."
Then the temporary person in charge gave a brief explanation of the situation.
Yesterday afternoon, a Dragon Scale Guard officer from Hidden Point No. 3 went out for shopping. When he came back, he found that he was being followed. He immediately left the city for safety, but he was still caught.
Preliminary judgment is that the identity of the Dragon Scale Guard officer may have been recognized by Tianqin's secret service.
"Why didn't you report it to me immediately?" Lu Bin shouted.
"Because the matter was so important, we reported it directly to General Huang Fengli." said the interim person in charge.
Huang Fenglie is the commander and supreme leader of the Dragon Scale Guards. When such a major incident occurs, it is reasonable for him to report it beyond his level.
After hearing that the army commander had been reported, Lu Bin calmed down and asked, "What did the old general say?"
"He only said four words..." the temporary person in charge said slowly, "just wait and see what happens."
"What!" Chen Xing frowned, "What do you mean by waiting and watching!"
"If the matter is leaked, we will be doomed!" Chen Xing was furious and punched the table. "Send my order immediately and launch an attack!"
Huang Fenglie didn't notify the prime minister immediately about such a big event. It was just nonsense!
"Sir, we only have 70% of the original planned strength. Attacking hastily may lead to total failure!" Lu Bin quickly advised.
"That's better than exposing the matter and waiting to be surrounded and suppressed!" Chen Xing waved his hand, "Stop talking and follow my orders!"
"Sir, we have been monitoring the palace, and there are no signs of strengthening the defense there yet!" the temporary person in charge said.
"Sir..." Lu Bin faced Chen Xing, knelt down on one knee, and said solemnly, "Please believe in the loyalty and bravery of the Dragon Scale Guard!"
"We are the pride of Ambergris River, Dragonscale Guards!"
"Lu Bin is willing to guarantee his life. Even if he is tortured and tortured to death, he will not betray his brothers!"
