German Eagle: Steel and Magic

Chapter 60 Rikel von Klayton

Both Huo Lin and Fama are clerks of their respective colleges, and they also stay in school after graduation. They also like to listen to gossip and have strong curiosity. They are also young girls, but Huo Lin is younger.

She has a better family background and a better future.You must know that Huo Lin is only 19 years old this year, and she is already a student of the Imperial Military Academy. This kind of height is out of reach for Fama.

If you serve on campus, the height of the military rank may stop here, unless Fama picks up his gun and goes to the battlefield, but this kind of thing cannot be done by Fama.

Boom, boom.

As soon as Karl returned to the dormitory, someone knocked on the door, so he quickly got up and walked to the door, and there were two people standing outside the door.

One is second lieutenant Huo Lin with the second illness, and the other is a strange officer...

a colonel?
"Excuse me, Lieutenant Karl, let me introduce myself. My name is Rikel von Klayton, and I am from the Central Army Staff Headquarters."

Carl knew about Clayton's poaching before, because besides himself, there were many lucky people who were selected, but this time it was a bit unexpected.

Carl still saluted and said hello out of politeness, and then opened the door to invite.

"Sorry, I haven't received the news that you will come, so I don't have any preparations."

Carl expressed his apologies to Clayton. After all, he is a big man, and it won't hurt him to say something nice.

This big man is not just superior and inferior, but also the relationship between military ranks. The "Feng" in his name alone is enough to explain his identity.

The children of the German Empire can be named whatever they want, except for two words that cannot be used casually, "Feng" and "Deng".

These are the monopoly of the nobles, but as a small noble, the parents naturally added a "Deng" to the name, but this was a long time ago.

The current law of the German Empire does not stipulate that civilians cannot use "Deng". Coupled with the influence of the "Equality Movement", many people are scrambling to add "Deng" to their children's names. It seems that they are also identities. Children who are not low can become nobles.

For example, Prami and Nigbor, they are both ordinary families, but "Deng" is also added to their names, but the police will not come home in the morning and warn them to change their names.

It is precisely because the word "Deng" has lost the ability to symbolize status, many nobles now will not add this word to their children's names, because it will appear to be of low status.

The status of "Feng" is very high, and it must be conferred by His Majesty the Emperor. This is written into the law of the Will Empire, a supreme honor.

In order to obtain such honors, the contribution of the family to the country is indispensable, and there is also a prerequisite, that family itself is a nobleman.

Rikel von Klayton, even though he valued himself a bit, he still couldn't relax.

"It doesn't matter, the sudden visit, on the contrary, I was a little rude, and the time is urgent recently, and I can only stay in Heidelberg for two days.

By the way, maybe you haven't heard of me, so I will introduce it in detail.

I am the Chief of the Central Army Staff Department, the Logistics Strategy Research Division. I believe you are familiar with one of my subordinates, that is Nordwirt. You should be cousins. After Clayton sat down, his face was calm, and his relaxed tone seemed to tell Carl that he was here to chat.

Huo Lin, who was standing on the side, maintained a professional smile. Her previous nervousness and strange assumptions were gone, and she was extremely normal now.

There is no way, after all, the status of the person next to him is too high, and this is not the time to fall ill.

Rikel von Clayton, an officer with real power in the Central Army Staff Department, has a certain say in the rear service department of the entire empire, and is a colonel with a prominent family background.

No one wants to mess with this guy for no reason, not even the principal of the military academy of country d.

"Yes, we are cousins."

Karl stated the relationship very calmly.

"You don't seem to have a good relationship?"

Clayton showed some concern, and his tone was calm and slightly gentle.

"Because we spend very little time together, not to mention some unpleasant things happened."

Karl believed that the colonel knew about it, so he had nothing to hide.

"I'm sorry, kid. I'm deeply sympathetic to what happened to you. Fortunately, you've come out of this unpleasant memory. You're very strong, aren't you?"

Clayton was good at chatting. Although he said some useless words, neither Carl nor Holly who was standing next to him showed any signs of impatience.

The two didn't talk about joining the Central Army, or about more private matters, they just chatted for half an hour unknowingly.

"I think it's time for me to go. Nice to meet you, Lieutenant Carl."

After Clayton finished speaking, he was about to leave, but he suddenly remembered something and stopped walking.

"Almost forgot the business, Lieutenant Karl, I would like to formally invite you to cooperate with a research commissioned by the Central Army to the Imperial Military Academy, which is about air vehicles."

Carl, who was about to get up to see him off, was also stunned. It seemed that this guy still had something to gain when he came here.

"Don't get me wrong, there is no meaning of coercion, and this has nothing to do with your further study at the Imperial Military Academy. It's just that you have powerful magic talent and proficient driving skills. If you participate, it will be of great help to the experiment .”

Clayton said that he had already shown his kindness a lot, but Carl didn't think so.

An "old guy" with a high position and power, who doesn't know how many calculations he has in his heart. If he doesn't participate, Karl, who wears small shoes or something, feels that he can do it.

But you must agree to it, after all, it is a good thing to try something new.

"Sure enough, as Nordwitter said, Lieutenant Karl, you are a soldier with patriotism and dedication. I wish you all the best in your studies and life at the Imperial Military Academy. If you need anything, you can write to me directly or Call up."

Clayton didn't just talk about it, he actually took out a piece of paper from his pocket, simply wrote a business card and handed it to Carl. If there is any difficulty, he can really say it, and Clayton can handle it.

"It's a great honor, thank you, Director."

Carl took it with respectful hands, and then saluted Clayton seriously.

After the two left, Karl began to mutter: "Is this considered promising? Or do you really want to win me into the Central Army?"

Carl sat on the chair, puzzled. After all, Clayton's behavior was not shown on his face, and all his thoughts needed to be guessed.

It didn't take long before there was another knock on the door. Carl went to open the door and found that it was Holly. He walked in excitedly and said,
"Wow, you are really lucky!"

Holly's excitement was revealed without any concealment, as if she had been valued by Clayton and got the contact information by the way.

"Lucky? Why don't I think so."

Karl looked at this guy a little speechless, and just after he left, he changed his appearance, maybe this is his professionalism.

"Hey, do you want to hear some inside information?"

Holly showed a smirk, leaned close to Carl's ear and said.

"What? If it violates the military's confidentiality principles, then don't tell me."

Carl rolled his eyes helplessly, the gossip about Clayton?Karl thinks the world is still very beautiful, at least it is worth nostalgia.

"What are you thinking? It's just a research on a new type of vehicle. It's not a secret."

"The news of the new equipment is a top secret."

"Wow, how come, why didn't I receive a confidentiality order?"

"How did you get in? And you can still graduate? Isn't this kind of thing written in Chapter 4, Article [-] of the "Self-Discipline Code for Soldiers of the German Empire"?"

"Ah, hey, I don't have a high score in this kind of subject..."

"You didn't graduate through relationships, did you? I seriously suspect that you want to drag me into the water, vicious woman."

"What, it's really just that I don't know."

"I'm going to the Academic Affairs Office to report you idiot."

"Didn't I say it yet? Besides, what evidence do you have that I'm in a relationship. "
