Although she understood what Roya meant, Tallulah was still very depressed. She couldn't lose her temper, so she could only watch Shuangxing and Roya holding hands, and comforted herself in her heart that they were just holding hands. After all, she had hit a home run last night.
"Alright, alright, stop fighting each other. We have to move up our plans. One or two internal guards are fine, but it's clear that the radicals are really anxious. The spies of the reformists are probably already in the snowfield."
Roya was not surprised that the Internal Guards would come, but the fact that five of them came at once meant that the radicals were getting a little impatient. Next, Roya had to think about how to make the radicals suffer this loss obediently, otherwise, for the radicals, using the Integration Movement as an excuse to provoke a war with Casimir would also be able to achieve their goal.
Putting aside her dissatisfaction with Froststar for the moment, Tallulah thought for a moment.
"So we have to act in advance? But the King Slayer hasn't come back yet."
Loya released the hand that Froststar was holding, and patted the white rabbit on the shoulder to prevent her from being unhappy. He shook his head to indicate that Tallulah was overthinking.
"No, Froststar and I will take the Yeti team away first. You guys should wait until the King Slayer comes back before setting off. I think she must have brought back a lot from Longmen. You can make the arrangements as you see fit."
If Luo Ya guessed correctly, it would be impossible for the King Slayer to hide anything about himself in Longmen from Lin Yuxia's eyes. With the previous activities of the Duke of Victoria in Longmen, Lin Yuxia could easily guess that she could use the King Slayer to find him.
If time permits, Luo Ya wouldn't mind having a good chat with this old friend or treating her to a few meals, but he's afraid he doesn't have the time now.
Regardless of what the Kingslayer would bring back, there was still worry and uneasiness in Tallulah's eyes.
"But can you guys do it alone? Will you be found out that something is wrong?"
Roja, Froststar and the entire Snow Monster Team only have a few dozen people. It may not be as easy as imagined to hide it from Ursus. It would be bad if Ursus reacted.
Roya was not worried about Tallulah's problem. He had already figured out how to disguise these dozens of people as a team of hundreds of people, not to mention that he might be more important to Ursus than the entire integration movement.
"I'm already prepared, don't worry. By the way, how is Mr. Patriot doing?"
"There's nothing wrong with the old stubborn guy."
Frost Star moved slightly and stood closer to Roya. Including her ears, she looked much taller than Roya, but she did not have the strong temperament of Tallulah. Instead, she was uncharacteristically gentle.
"Although he has oripathy, he is not threatened by just two inner guards, not to mention the shield warriors. The two inner guards were very respectful after recognizing him and did not kill him."
"It seems that Mr. Patriot is still a legendary figure in the Ursus army today."
Luo Ya couldn't help but sigh. Even the arrogant Internal Guards could still show respect to the Patriot. One could imagine what kind of military exploits this soldier had made for Ursus. The most important thing was that he was only a captain. If he was not a Wendigo and an infected person, he might have already become a general of Ursus.
"If it was at the beginning of Ursus' founding, his name would have been recorded in history books. However, Ursus's suppression of alien races and persecution of infected people has been going on for more than a year or two."
After all, having grown up under Kosciuszko's instruction, Talulah had a deep understanding of the history of Ursus, and she knew how much oppression and prejudice the patriots had suffered, so when she talked about this matter, she felt a little unfair for the patriots.
This reminded Roya of the scene in the Ursus King's Hall. At that time, everyone was arguing and laughing, with deep expectations and wishes for the future of Ursus. Although he knew that no empire in the world could exist for a long time, Roya still felt an indescribable loss and regret, as well as deep anger.
"If the heroes who founded Ursus back then saw Ursus today, they would want to bury all these unfilial descendants. They actually call themselves nobles with noble blood."
Roya's tone was full of dissatisfaction. Frost Star and Tallulah didn't think too much about it, but were a little confused.
"Aren't all the people who made great contributions to the founding of Ursus nobles?"
"No, Igor, the founder of Ursus, was a hunter. Later, he gathered a group of people persecuted by the Eagle Empire and became the leader of a resistance army. He was often laughed at by others for being afraid of his wife. In the war to overthrow the Eagle Empire, the Ursus tribe took the lead and made great sacrifices. So everyone elected Igor as the emperor of Ursus."
Sitting in the chair, wagging his tail in frustration, just remembering everything about that meeting was enough for Luo Ya to have a more comprehensive understanding of those people. After all, during the discussion meeting, no one took it seriously and left everything to him, and they always exposed each other's shortcomings during the chat.
"So I don't care about the so-called noble bloodline of the emperor. Even if someone is as powerful as Draco, he can't fight against an army. People who live ordinary lives are the foundation of the human world. Ursus relied on these people to destroy the Hippogriff Empire, and now it has to repeat the same mistake and follow the old path of the Hippogriff.
“History is an upward spiral that moves forward through constant repetition. Sometimes when people look back at history, it is easy to speculate what will happen in the future.”
Roya's emotion was also felt by Tallulah and Froststar, but after all, they had just experienced an attack, so it would be more appropriate to talk about some light-hearted and interesting topics. Tallulah leaned against Roya's back from behind and gently touched her horn with Roya's horn to express her love. This is a special expression that only horned races like Draco can have.
"Hey, Roya, where did you learn all these things?"
"Prison, at least most of it is learned in prison."
Thinking back to the conversation with Kal'tsit and considering what he was going through now, Roya didn't dare to say what his past was like. He had existed in this world much longer than he thought.
This answer made Tallulah and Froststar a little unsure of how to respond. It felt a little reasonable and a little outrageous at the same time.
"Are you treating prison like college?"
"That's called enlightenment in Longchang."
Roya felt a little itchy on his head when he felt Tallulah touching his horns. What made him feel helpless was that Tallulah was entangled with his tail and was fiddling with it. Frost Star, who was sitting opposite him, probably couldn't see all this. Tallulah was expressing her dissatisfaction to Roya just now, and it seemed that she liked this kind of implicit stimulation very much.
Luo Ya remembered that when he emphasized the identity of "Chen Huijie's fiancé" last night, Tallulah seemed to be even more excited. It seemed that this girl was really influenced by the Black Snake to some extent, and was somewhat different from ordinary people in some aspects.
"Anyway, the next stage is the most critical stage of the Reunion Movement's development plan. Let's leave Ursus first. As for the various development plans that will follow, I have written them all. You and Patriot will take a look at them later. Froststar, go check on whether the Yeti Squad is ready. We will be busy next."
"Okay, I'll come see you later."
Froststar didn't think too much about it and just picked up her cloak and left. But just as she closed the door, Tallulah sat on Roya's lap.
"Phew, the white rabbit is finally gone, what a shame."
She unceremoniously wrapped her tail around Roya's waist and put her other hand on Roya's shoulder to hook his neck. Tallulah felt much more comfortable this way. She would never dare to do this when Frost Star was around.
Roya reached out and poked Tallulah's face. It was more elastic than Abranah's, and suitable for pinching.
"Sister, don't you like her?"
"That's not it."
Tallulah shook her head. She and Froststar were enemies but also close comrades. There was no such thing as disliking her. It would be more accurate to say that she was very concerned about Froststar's physical condition.
"I just felt a little unhappy when I saw her holding your hand just now. If she saw me sitting on your lap like this, she would definitely get angry and fight with me."
"You want to eat this vinegar?"
Luoya thought about it, why did this feel so familiar, just like Abrana and Ravshini back then. However, it was true that Ravshini liked Luoya, and Froststar's words were more because Luoya was the only one who could touch her, so she had to show more trust and closeness to him. It shouldn't be said that she liked him, otherwise Luoya's head would hurt even more.
"Don't even mention Froststar. I was a little unhappy even when you were talking to Alina. After all, Draco's possessiveness is very strong."
“I understand that very well.”
Whether it was Abrana or Tallulah, Roya had already deeply experienced this truth from them, but in a passive way. He still had to think of a reason not to sleep in the same room with Tallulah tonight, otherwise he didn't even have to guess what would happen.
But now Roya no longer had any expectations for the future meeting between Tallulah and Abranah. If he had known earlier, he would have told Tallulah directly about his affair with Abranah. Now it's not that he can't say it, but he doesn't dare. If he really said it, even without Black Snake, Tallulah would turn evil on the spot.
But I don't know what's going on with Abrana, which really makes me worried. I hope Abrana and Mandela are safe, and I also hope that Lavshini is safe.
Chapter 125 Roya and Frost Star
Victoria, in a school in Londinium, Mandela kept writing while listening to the teacher's lecture on the stage.
Mandela is very busy, busier than anyone else. Every morning she is responsible for handling heavy paperwork and arranging the work of various departments of Deep Pool. In the afternoon, she has to deal with various high-ranking officials and nobles on behalf of Abrana. She puts on a hypocritical smile to deal with the same hypocrisy from others, and she also has to take time out every day to practice her Originium skills.
Even so, she still had to attend night school every night to exercise herself as much as possible.
But she had no complaints about this kind of life. Except for the teachers on the stage, no one in this school knew that this studious girl from Feilin would be the acting secretary of Shenchi. She also liked the atmosphere in the school and felt it was very relaxing.
Abrana would also help with paperwork in the morning, and a new secretarial team was also being organized. She had more time to learn Originium skills to make herself stronger.
"Well, today's class ends here. It's getting late, so everyone should remember not to linger on the road. Go home and don't let your family worry."
The Rupert woman with long light grey hair finished her words and looked up at Mandela who was sitting in the first row. She knew the identity of this student and had always been worried about whether the other party would attack this school. Although Shen Chi appeared to be good in all aspects, one should still be on guard against others.
Mandela packed up her things, glanced at the gloomy night outside and then looked at the teacher in front of her. The two stared at each other until the rest of the students left. Only then did Mandela take the initiative to speak.
"Mr. Golding, are you interested in working in our Deep Pond?"
Golding was stunned for a moment, not expecting Mandela's first words to be like this. Was this acting secretary of Shenchi inviting her to join? But this was too strange.
"Why did you choose me? I'm just an ordinary teacher."
"You have excellent abilities and good character. We in Shenchi need people like you. You also know that we are planning to transform the heating system of the entire Londinium. At the same time, we are counting the people who need relief within our jurisdiction and try not to take too many lives this winter. However, this is a very troublesome task and requires a considerable amount of manpower."
This was not a spur of the moment idea, but a conclusion Mandela came to after observing for a long time. Since Roya, who had the best ability, was not there, it was impossible for Mandela alone to fill the vacancy left by him, so a new and reliable secretarial team needed to be formed. Abrana allowed Mandela to freely choose the personnel and use whatever means he wanted, as long as the other party was trustworthy.
This reason made Golding at a loss for a moment. Although Her Highness Abrana was quite famous in Victoria today, Golding did not want to join Deep Pool like others. She hoped to spend more time to see what kind of organization Deep Pool was. But if more people died of the cold this winter due to the lack of manpower in Deep Pool, then she really should not sit idly by.
"I thought you had enough manpower."
"We can't help it. My teacher left in a hurry and didn't say when he would be back. If he were here, he could do the work of twenty of us."
When talking about her relationship with Roya, Mandela hesitated. She didn't know how to address Roya. If she said something she shouldn't and Abrana knew about it, she would be in trouble. She could only call her teacher.
Although she didn't know who the teacher Mandela was talking about, Golding thought about it and agreed. She really had no reason to refuse.
"If this can help more people get through the winter safely, then I'm happy to help."
“Thank you for your service to Victorians.”
Mandela stretched out her hand, thinking that her work would become easier now. However, she still had a lot of work to do. She would have to attend a dinner to meet the heir of the Duke of Cumberland, continue to practice Originium skills, and find more people to train. She would have to see if she could get some people from the Royal Academy.
When Mandela thought about having so many troublesome things to do, she missed Roya very much. She really couldn't understand how Roya could handle all these things so easily and still play with them. It would be great if he could come back earlier.
........................
The snowy nights in Ursus were much colder than those in Victoria. Feeling his ears were a little hot, Roya subconsciously looked in the direction of Victoria, and then looked in the direction of Longmen, which made Shuangxing a little confused.
"Is there anything over there?"
"No, I just felt like someone was thinking about me. It must be an illusion."
Luo Ya came back to his senses, turned the skewers on the grill over and continued to grill them, and blew on it to increase the fire. He guessed that it must be Mandela or Abrana who missed him. After all, there were only a few people who missed him, but there were so many people who wanted him dead that they couldn't be counted.
The bonfire illuminated the surroundings. Frost Star rested one hand on his leg, supporting his chin, and watched Luoya busy with the barbecue.
Frost Star was originally thinking about looking for him later, but she didn't expect him to bring something here for supper. There were originally a dozen members of the Snow Monster Team sitting here, but when they saw Luo Ya coming, they all found an excuse to leave, ranging from stomachache to headache, and some said they were going to help a camel beast give birth. Before leaving, they gave Frost Star an encouraging look, which made her feel embarrassed. She was left alone with Luo Ya sitting together.
It would be very quiet with only two people together, and there was nothing special to talk about. Shuangxing felt that she should say something to break the tranquility. She felt inexplicably restless. She was thinking about looking for him just now, but now she just wanted to find a reason to leave.
As if he had sensed Frost Star's thoughts, Roya spoke first before her.
"How is everyone preparing?"
The preparation that Luo Ya was talking about was the bait mission to be carried out next, and Frost Star nodded.
"Everything is almost ready, but is this really okay? At least bring a few more people."
It is not easy for dozens of people to disguise themselves as hundreds of people. Considering the time delay in information transmission on Terra, it is estimated that they will be discovered in four or five days. Otherwise, the Patriots would not have said that they would pass through the border between Ursus and Casimir at a very fast speed.
"Don't worry. Ursus will probably focus all his attention on us from now on. Many of our previous preparations may not be of any use. Besides, the more people we bring, the harder it will be for us to escape."
Luo Ya picked up the small jar of seasoning and smelled it. After confirming that it was cumin, he gently sprinkled it on the barbecue. His tone was also relaxed, as if he was deliberately trying to ease Frost Star's worries.
"Are you so sure?"
"At least 80%, if my calculations are correct."
According to Black Snake's previous performance, Luo Ya roughly estimated his position in Ursus. Combined with the little memory he remembered before, he didn't believe that the inner guard would conceal his identity. Not only would he tell the radicals, he might even tell the current emperor of Ursus.
But it doesn't matter even if he doesn't say it. Roya still plans to take the initiative to contact the new emperor of Ursus. His future plans cannot be carried out without the cooperation of the reformists. His Majesty Fedor will definitely be happy to see the radicals suffer this great loss.
After sprinkling some chili powder on it, Luo Ya picked up a skewer of barbecue, blew it cool, and then handed it to Frost Star.
"Want to eat?"
"You're pretty considerate, aren't you?"
Due to the oripathy, Froststar's body temperature is also very low. What is just the right amount of hot drink for ordinary people is boiling hot for her. Roya has always kept this in mind. As Draco, he can also always feel Froststar's body temperature.
He opened his mouth and gently took a bite of the barbecue in front of him. His first impression was that it was a bit spicy. Although it had been blown cool, it was still a bit hot inside. Shuangxing simply reached out and took the whole skewer. Just as he was about to continue eating it, he suddenly remembered something.
"Aren't you afraid that Tallulah will be unhappy if you grill me here? It seems to me that she has a problem with me being so close to you."
Frost Star is not a slow-witted person. When she held Roya's hand, Talullah's eyes were almost burning with fire. It is not difficult to see that Talullah really cherishes her brother whom she has only known for a short time. It is probably because Roya really helped a lot that Talullah's affection for him increased rapidly.
But to be honest, Frost Star felt that Tallulah's desire to protect Roya was a little unnatural, and it was hard to figure out what she was thinking.
"Draquel has a strong desire to monopolize her things. She just cherishes me, a rare relative, too much."
Roya tried to explain Tallulah's behavior as reasonably as possible. He couldn't say that it was because Tallulah forced him to understand last night that Draco could last four hours for the first time. Roya happened to be in a relatively weak state at the time, so he experienced the pain of being tormented by Abrana again.
Frost Star nodded. Tallulah's possessiveness was really rare. In everyone's eyes, she had always been a generous, tolerant and powerful leader. It could even be said that possessiveness did not exist.
But when he recalled Tallulah's resentful and aggrieved "Oh" when he said he was going to discuss something with Froststar, Roya could imagine what her expression was like.
"Hey Roya, what kind of place is Casimir?"
After all, the Integration Movement will be stationed in Casimir in the future. Frost Star is very curious about what kind of land that will be. This question makes Roya a little puzzled, and he doesn't know how to answer it for a while.
He did not have a deep impression of Casimir Roya. He had never been to any city in Casimir. Most of the time, he and Xiao Ke were doing tasks in the wilderness to earn bounties, and only occasionally went to Songqiu Town to replenish supplies.
"Casimir... the rich lands have either been turned into fiefs for nobles or developed into development zones. Most of the wildernesses are basically the same, desolate and bleak. But they are much better than the snowy plains, at least they are not that cold."
Just a few words could not explain the whole picture of the wilderness. Luo Ya did not seem to want to say too much. He just picked up another can of seasoning and smelled it, then couldn't help sneezing to the side.
"A-choo, it's actually pepper. I took the wrong thing."
Frost Star smiled and stared at Roya's face. Only at this moment did she realize that the person next to her could not see anything. But even so, he still dared to hold her hand in public, saying that he wanted to change the current situation of the infected, and he also painstakingly planned the future for the integration movement.
"Sometimes I can't help but think you're pretty cute."
