Chapter 485 Unexpected Guests

In view of the chaotic public security situation in the Kingdom of Bain, in order to ensure the safety of industrial and food production and to maintain the harmony and stability of the Special Administrative Region, the Autonomous Committee temporarily decided to hold a large-scale mobilization exercise called "Security Guards".

This exercise is not aimed at anyone!
The eldest prince looked at the personnel changes on the edge of Lanster City and was so angry that he wanted to smash the telescope. Those strong men were all made of iron, or at least they were iron forgers - they were all brothers who came to support from the steel mill.

Compared to Kempsen, which is located in the corner, Lanst has become the third city of the Special Administrative Region between Munich and Neuenburg. Its location is sensitive and awkward, so the Autonomous Committee mobilized 8,000 steel brothers to rush to the rescue.

The vanguard arrived on the evening of the riot because they were a mechanized force - each man had a 28-inch bicycle and they rode very fast on the new road.

However, what the First Legion feared the most were the Iron Guys. A group of constructs roamed in groups on the edge of the city. They could easily climb hills and jump over walls on their four legs and wade through water. The ones with cannons on their heads looked tough to deal with, and the ones without cannons on their heads. The prince's intuition told him that they were even tougher to deal with.

It was said that they came out of the Vaux Gas Plant. Didn't the Ludwig family have a stake in the company? How come they didn't know anything about it? The eldest prince was sure that his second brother must have taken the money and left them alone, so he let them do a lot of bad things behind their backs.

The morale of the soldiers of the First Corps was somewhat hampered by the intimidation of the construct's huge body.

They had seen the might of the Empire and Valois on the battlefield. In the past, even if the two sides had mages fighting each other and showing off their unique skills, Byrne's army would just watch for fun, focusing on being flexible and mobile, and stealing chickens on the sidelines with better guns and longer range.

Now it was their turn to go to the frontal battlefield. Seeing the several-meter-high constructs and the black muzzles of their guns turning flexibly, the First Legion felt a little confused - both the Empire and Valois had special skills, so what did they have on their side?
Well, wait a minute. The prince immediately asked the military wizard whether he could mobilize the special force, the Sky Knights.

Looking at the construct's cannon, the prince judged that it might not be able to pose a threat to the sky. If the air knights could throw explosive packs to bomb the constructs, their deterrence could be eliminated, and the remaining stragglers would not be a concern for the regular army's First Corps.

"Your Highness." The military mage hesitated to speak, but then he thought again and understood: "Okay, as you wish."

"It's not a wish, it's a military order!"

"Yes!"

The first and second squads of the Sky Knights were deployed near Munich. The first squad was required to defend the royal palace, and the second squad was brought along by the military wizard, and they were required to obey the command of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The atmosphere in the third squad was completely different, and even the entire Second Corps did not feel the tension. The Second Corps took the initiative to send a telegram to the royal family and the headquarters, requesting that two-thirds of the troops go north to Wurzburg, and they were allowed to do so.

The Second Prince Otto replied by telegram and commended the commander, praising him for his loyalty and ability to share the emperor's worries.

But what he didn't know was that the Second Corps had been stationed near the Special Zone for half a year, and had been corrupted and bribed by the evil Rorschach. The reason they went north was because of their temporary military wizard, Mr. Bart, who was afraid that something might happen to his beloved wife in Würzburg.

Originally, the Special Zone had 12,000 bicycles, enough to send all the steel brothers to Lanster by expedited express, but the majority of them were given to the Second Legion.

The road to the north is not as easy as that within the Special Administrative Region, but that does not stop them from pedaling hard to maintain love and peace in this important northern city.

Perhaps the royal family knew it vaguely, but the king and the second prince were considering that as long as they had the power to stabilize the situation in Würzburg, it would be fine. If they could invite two great wizards to subdue Rorschach, everything could be settled afterwards.

Tanya, the captain of the third squad of the Sky Knights, did not train for the first time, but played cards with her subordinates. This abnormality made her comrades feel uncomfortable: "Captain, is there no instruction from the Corps? And the court?"

Tanya's long eyelashes didn't move. "No, we won't act without orders from our superiors. No one is allowed to wear mobility gear today."

On the other side of the Special Zone, the second team could not hear Tanya's orders. They followed the instructions of the Great Prince and took off from the woods near Lanster with high-performance explosives. "Is it really okay? Our equipment, explosives, everything from head to toe were given by Master Rorschach. How could he allow us to bomb the Special Zone?"

The captain of the second team tore off the navigator on his wrist: "Isn't this good? Don't forget, we are a special forces directly under the royal family. If you keep talking nonsense, I will execute you now!" After saying that, he took off first.

When everyone reached the sky and were about to activate the invisibility scroll, they were suddenly enveloped by a feeling of weightlessness.

It's a malfunction! The maneuvering device is malfunctioning! They are falling at the fastest speed, and the damn thing is that the height in the air is not high enough to open the parachute.
Not only that, the propulsion nozzles also automatically changed direction, giving them an accelerated dive, getting closer and closer to the treetops.

At the last moment when the plane was about to crash and everyone on board was about to die, the nozzle finally returned to normal, giving them a narrow cushion and preventing them from falling to their deaths.

The whole team was like this, with no exceptions. Everyone was in great shock, and after touching the ground or hanging on the trees, they rushed to take off their mobility devices and throw them as far as they could.

The stalemate and inability of the army meant that the situation in the three major cities continued to deteriorate, especially in the capitals of Nuremberg and Bain. Fortunately, when the chaos continued until the evening and both the rioters and the guards were exhausted, representatives from the city hall appeared.

"I am the governor of the City Hall, and I have been entrusted by His Majesty the King to listen to your demands!" Sweat broke out on his forehead, because he was not behind a desk now, but in front of countless angry citizens, each of whom was holding a fire stick.

However, he still had the qualities of a professional player, and he immediately calmed the public down: "Everyone present here is a patriotic citizen! I know that life is hard right now, and everyone has their own difficulties, so please speak out. The royal family and the city hall will do their best to meet everyone's reasonable demands!"

Of course, the word "reasonable" was not heard. Fortunately, at least some people put down their guns temporarily and shouted:
"Tax cuts!" "We want jobs"

"Trade with the Empire!" "Bullshit, we want to form an alliance with Valois!"

"The price of bread can't go up any more!" "Lift the prohibition, I want to drink!"

Obviously, many of the demands were contradictory. For a moment, the rioters discovered that they were not in the same group and soon became riotous and chaotic again.

Just when the situation was about to get out of control, a few horns suddenly sounded from behind the crowd, and a strange four-wheeled vehicle that almost no one had ever seen slowly drove towards the main gate of the palace.

"Make way." "Why?"

"Are you an idiot? Didn't you see the flag of the Tower of Mysticism stuck in front of the car?" "It can still move without a horse, it must be a wizard's thing!" "I know, this is a gas car."

Although everyone was talking, they still made way of their own accord. After the palace gate opened and the car passed through the garden and stopped in front of the palace, a man in a red robe with a serious expression got out.

"Master Feuerbach, the Ludwig family is honored that you can still keep the appointment at this moment." The king and Prince Otto came out to greet him in person.

Feuerbach nodded silently in response. After he came out from the back seat, another young man came out from the driver's seat. His robe was also red, but brighter than Feuerbach's, and more visually aggressive.

"Master Feuerbach strongly requested that I accompany you. I apologize for coming here uninvited." Rorschach said this, but his expression did not show any embarrassment.

The king and the prince's faces froze instantly.
