Chapter 103 Liszt with 0293

Although “Scorching Sun” is a war robot, it is not difficult to clean the entrance to the underground with its lifting capacity.

It quietly stopped in place, waiting for Di Wen’s instructions.

The mole people stared wide-eyed, speechless.

After a long time, someone screamed: “Di Wen, are you lying to it?! You, how could you…!”

Another person shouted: “Yeah, how is that possible! You brought us into the capital, so the king…”

“Enough!” Di Wen shouted in a low voice, “Enough! Don’t mention this to me again, we—” She paused deeply, took a deep breath, “We’ll talk after we go underground.”

She seemed to have aged several years all of a sudden.

The two people who stayed behind the aircraft didn’t know the situation yet, so Lu Tinghan used the terminal to tell them about the “scorching sun” so that they don’t have to panic.

Walking all the way forward, everyone was speechless, and there was only the sound of torrential rain in the world.

Shi Yuan asked Lu Tinghan in a low voice: “The scorching sun is so fierce, can we hold the city?”

Lu Tinghan: “The empire has always had scorching sun, but the city still fell.”

“Okay.” Shi Yuan thought for a while, “But if General Lister can use the scorching sun, wouldn’t it be much safer?”

For some reason, Lu Tinghan was silent for a while, then replied: “Shi Yuan, I have a question.”

“What?” Shi Yuan’s tail bent into a question mark.

“If the scorching sun has always been able to function, why did it not appear until today?” Lu Tinghan said, “It is underground, and it has never come out before.”

Shi Yuan:?

His tail bent even more: “Yeah, why?”

Lu Tinghan stretched out his hand to straighten his tail, and said, “We will know the answer soon.”

Ten minutes later, they found the entrance near the collapsed City 1 subway station.

The entrance was also tightly blocked by ruins. “Scorching Sun” stretched out its mechanical arm to push away the gravel. It was not professional, and it moved very slowly and carefully.

It took some time to clean up, but they found a roadside shop that hadn’t collapsed and took shelter from the heavy rain.

This store sells robots, such as sweeping robots, cooking robots, etc., with various shapes, including human-shaped ones and round-headed ones. They are in disrepair, have no energy source, and are stuck in place one by one.

Pushing open the shop door, the Molemen filed in, shaking their fur to shake off the rain.

Lu Tinghan asked Shi Yuan to bring an umbrella, saying that he didn’t want to see a cold abyss, and when they were about to climb up the ruins later, they couldn’t hold an umbrella, and Shi Yuan was also wet all over.

When I entered the store, I felt cold hands and feet. Shi Yuan fell in love with a round-headed and round-brained sweeping robot, half the height of a person. He sat on it and rolled up his drenched trousers.

Di Wen stayed in the corner.

Several mole men surrounded her and asked her if she was warm or not, but she just shook her head.

The Mole Man is afraid of light, so the members of the alliance only turned on a flashlight and shone it into the corner. Dust danced in the bright yellow beam. Di Wen’s vague and dim shadow fell on the wall, stacked with the broken old robots.

After an unknown amount of time, she sighed: “…I never thought that I would get to where I am today.”

The heavy rain fell stickily through the cloudy glass of the shop.

She told stories of the past.

When the abyss first appeared, it caused widespread panic in the empire. Soon, the martial arts culture and powerful army made people calm down a little.

Royals are the best guarded at all times. The residences of the princes are impenetrable and guarded by the army. If there is a slight disturbance, they will leave immediately by aircraft or underground train. This is especially true for kings and princesses. Leton is the safest place to be in spite of the blood flowing outside.

The king leads the war, and the princess gives a speech. Even though the wind and rain are turbulent, the people of the empire regain their confidence.

As a member of the royal family, Alicia received a variety of education since she was a child, from equestrian, shooting, military to speech and etiquette. She inherited her father’s intelligence and arrogance. She learned things quickly, but she was impatient.

The war is tense day by day, even if the king dotes on the princess, he can’t take her away.

Stay in the ivory tower all my life.

For the first time in his life, he “asked” Alicia to study military.

Alicia learned to be reluctant.

She doesn’t care about rifles, pistols, armored soldiers and tanks, pincer tactics, three-dimensional defense, or war robots. However, the father who always smiled at her put on a straight face and forced her to learn.

The little princess was very wronged.

She stayed in the palace again, was forced to learn military skills for a day, and finally found the king with tears in her eyes.

“I don’t want to learn—” she sniffled coquettishly, “I want to go to the aquarium to see the fish, or, or Miss Gracea, she said she made a new necklace—”

“No.” The king put his broad hand on her shoulder, and looked at her with ice-blue eyes, distressed, helpless and determined.

He said: “Alicia, one day you will be the queen of this country. You will lead them to victory.”

“Why?” Alicia sniffled, “I don’t want to be the queen. As long as you, you always be the king, wouldn’t it be fine?”

The king smiled: “I will grow old, and you will grow old too. It is inevitable.” He touched Alicia’s long golden hair, “But our kingdom will not perish, it will be under your leadership For generations to come.”

“No, I don’t want to be a queen—” the little princess was still not happy, and tears were about to flow, “Those things are so annoying that I don’t even want to touch them.” She grabbed the king’s cloak and said softly, “Then Just don’t get old. You haven’t changed in all these years! You haven’t aged at all!”

The king was happy to hear this, laughed loudly, and took Alicia to the balcony.

The weather in the empire is ever-changing. There will be thunderstorms in the morning, and it will clear up in the evening. It was sunset at that time, the sky was burning red, and the clouds spread over the field magnificently.

Alicia watched intently.

Deep down, she knew that her father was right, that this vast kingdom would one day be hers.

But she is also reluctant in every possible way. My father was tall, with broad shoulders and strong arms, like the lion on the imperial banner. As long as he is still there, all kinds of responsibilities and responsibilities will not fall on her head.

Who wants to be queen?

Still the princess is the funniest.

The sea of ​​clouds is vast.

She added, “I’ll take a break tomorrow, okay—”

King: “Alicia, we agreed…”

“Just one day!” begged the princess. “Just one day, let me go and see Mr. Barry’s garden, where he has just planted new flowers!”

She spoke earnestly, and the king’s words of refusal were on his lips, and seeing her watery blue eyes, he swallowed them back.

He sighed, “Okay, just one day!”

The princess rejoiced.

Facts have proved that the king will never be cruel to Alicia.

If there is an exception this time, there will be another time. The little princess has learned, and she claims to be smart, and she can cope with that respected teacher with just a little learning. She spends three days fishing and two days drying the net, absent-minded.

The days went on like this.

In the blink of an eye, Alicia turned 20 years old.

Cities fell one after another, the king lost his patience, gave up the inhibitors, and devoted all his energy to Professor Christina’s fusion agent research.

After the fusion agent came out, the princess made a public speech, supporting people infected by monsters to use the fusion agent and become “more powerful warriors of the empire”.

She is quick-witted and generous, and her speech has won praise from everyone. She lifted her skirt and curtseyed, smiled and waved to the people amid the cheers, but she didn’t know that she was sending them to **** step by step.

Injected with fusion agents, warriors gain monstrous abilities.

The city was taken back, the kingdom was in high spirits, and the overwhelming crowd in Sunrise Square chanted long live the king, God bless the empire!

They passed the peak safely.

The low period was a leisurely time, and Alicia turned 22. She should be an adult, but the king’s pampering made her unchanged. She was still the carefree and savage princess who didn’t hear anything outside the window.

The next peak began, and the side effects of fusion agents appeared.

The fusion fighters fell into madness and became new enemies. The army suffered worse and retreated steadily, and the prestige of the royal family also faintly showed signs of collapse.

At this moment, Gamma Abyss became restless.

Rodents infected by “breeding frenzy” are all over the mountains and fields, tending to come to the capital.

One day the princess was humming a song, combed her hair, and put on her favorite cat’s-eye emerald necklace, when she was stopped by the king as soon as she went out.

“Alicia, I have something to tell you.” The man stood in the shadow of the palace.

“What?” Alicia rushed over, and the dark gold anklets slammed softly on the slender ankles, like a string of broken streamers.

The king stood still: “… Alicia, I hope you can go to Adesi.”

The princess’s secret town is named “Adesi”, which means “a pure land that does not compete with the world”. Alicia used to love being there.

Alicia’s eyes widened: “Why? Isn’t it good to stay in Dunton?”

“Gamma and Delta Abyss are both restless, and they are coming towards Dun.” The king said, “It’s not safe here anymore.”

“Ah, how is that possible!” Alicia smiled, “Didn’t you say that Leton is the safest place in the world, and you will protect it.”

“…no, not anymore,” said the king. “There will be war around here soon, Alicia, and I don’t want you to be injured. Ardesi also has the best defense, and your bodyguards will too. Follow along, you can live there for a while.”

The princess fell silent suddenly. She examined her father’s expression for a long time, and only saw seriousness, earnestness, and exhaustion that she tried her best to cover up on his face.

He was serious, she thought.

Is Leon really… not safe?

All of this happened too quickly. The once firmly believed and indestructible capital still stood firm under the repeated bombings of the alliance, and there was a day when it was caught in the flames of war.

Alicia took half a step back, looked at the king in fear, and suddenly realized that maybe she had grown taller, or maybe the man was really old, and the stalwart figure in the past could no longer protect her from all the wind and sun. Before he knew it, wrinkles crept up his forehead and the corners of his eyes.

“…I don’t want to go!” Alicia said suddenly, “I want to stay in Dunton, not go there!”

“Alicia!” the king shouted, “Don’t be willful this time!”

“No, I don’t want to.” Alicia took half a step back and shook her head desperately, “I won’t go!”

Great panic overwhelmed her.

For the first time in her life, she desperately resisted one thing not out of coquettishness, but out of fear.

It’s as if she doesn’t leave the capital or her father, nothing will change, the empire is still the unparalleled empire, the king is mighty, he always knows what to do, protects her, and pampers her.

Alicia turned and ran down the long corridor. At the corner, her pearl bracelet broke, and the white and moist pearls “crashed” and scattered all over the place.

— She finally gave in.

The king had never been so determined to force her to take the underground train to Adesi.

She said goodbye to her father tearfully.

Major Lister was tasked with keeping her safe.

He is a gifted commander who became famous at a young age, not much older than the princess. He is very dull on weekdays. After arriving in Adesi, he commanded the army to guard the city, and checked the defense measures of the secret town again and again.

The battle situation was urgent, he shouldn’t be here, but the king personally ordered that the princess’s safety was the most important, so he stayed here for three or four months.

There are castles, fountains, zoo aquariums and flower seas in the town, which are so exquisite that Alicia is tired of staying here every day.

She rolled her eyes and focused on Liszt.

She disliked Liszt very much, but he was dull and dull, like a dull gourd, and he didn’t lose his temper when she deliberately made things difficult for him. However, this is a precarious era, explosions, blood, death, endless monsters… In the protracted war, company is precious.

Look at it this way

Come on, Liszt is not so annoying anymore. It’s a little cute when you look closely, and it’s worth teasing.

“Lister—” she called every time, “what did you do today?”

At the beginning, Liszt would report in a strict manner, where he had perfected the defense today, and which military reports he had read. Now he knows that this is what the princess asked casually, and he doesn’t really care about it at all, so he doesn’t answer much.

He simply replied: “Set up the defense line.”

The princess curled her lips, not very satisfied: “The whole town was shaking this morning, which woke me up.”

Liszt: “It was 150 kilometers away, the southwestern defense line encountered the Gamma Abyss infection group, and a lot of explosives were used.”

Alicia rolled her beautiful blue eyes: “The monster is coming again. Major Liszt, will you protect me?”

Liszt saluted and said solemnly: “I will always serve you, Your Royal Highness.”

“Oh, you’re such a stupid head, I didn’t mean this—” Alicia drew her voice, “If you weren’t a major, would you still protect me?”

Liszt was taken aback suddenly. He looked at the princess. Alicia was extremely beautiful. Years of pampering and ignorance made her retain an incompatible arrogance and coquettishness. She wore a blue-green silk long dress today, and **** her long hair with a jade hairpin, revealing a swan-like white neck. The golden earrings were sparkling, and they dangled together with the broken diamond anklet.

She sparkles.

He was stunned for a few seconds, his ears were burning, and he looked away in a panic.

Alicia covers her mouth and laughs back and forth.

How clever she was, she saw Liszt’s absence. She thinks this young major general is really interesting, and she will have fun in the future.

After Liszt bid farewell in a hurry, she yelled at his back: “Hey—Major, you like me a little bit, don’t you?”

Liszt didn’t answer, and his pace was faster, which made Alicia laugh for a long time.

If the story goes on, the dull young military officer and the savage imperial princess may be a good story. But the reality is often cold, and he can’t help himself during the war. Two months later, Liszt was ordered to return to the front line and take command.

There is no story, no good relationship, everything happened before, and the two said goodbye.

Before leaving, Liszt reported to the princess for the last time.

Alicia held her head and said, “When are you coming back?”

“I don’t know yet.” Liszt stood up straight, “I will try my best.”

“Okay.” Alicia lost interest and waved her hand lazily, “You go.”

Liszt saluted, turned and walked outside. After walking a few steps, he stopped again, turned his head and said, “Your Highness, I will try my best to let you go home.”

Alicia froze.

She rolled her blue eyes with a quick smile.

Liszt left like this, and the life of the princess became boring again.

Half a year later, she heard rustling noises in her sleep. They approached so fast that she couldn’t help frowning.

—Later she knew it was the voice of a mole.

Here they come.

…

“Boom—!”

A loud noise pulled everyone’s thoughts back.

The last boulder had been cleared away by the scorching sun, and they could go underground.

“Let’s go.” Di Wen hunched his back, “Now—now is not the time to finish listening to the story.”

She opened the store door first, and walked into the rain again. The Mole Man was dumbfounded after hearing the story, and he was stunned for a while before chasing after her.

When everyone came to the entrance, the elevator could not be used for a long time, and they walked down the long spiral staircase.

After an unknown amount of time, they reached the bottom.

The surroundings were pitch black, and the flashlight shone through, and the streets were full of tall and gorgeous buildings.

Shi Yuan looked around. Unlike other abandoned cities, the buildings were quite intact and almost undamaged. This is undoubtedly good news, it seems that the monsters failed to invade.

Everyone was refreshed, and walked quickly on the street, heading for the central area of ​​Xiangdun.

This

It is quite a huge city, as grand as the main city of the Alliance. At this moment, the top floor of the communication center deep in the city was shining with a faint light.

Someone is there.

“They’re still there!” Chi Yongge said excitedly, “This can also be used as a city for the ‘Deep Dive’ project! We, we finally succeeded!”

However, the further they went to the central area, the more they felt something was wrong.

Through the glass window, Shi Yuan saw several bones, all wearing military uniforms. There are guns, ammunition, and traces of bonfires on the street, and there are also bones in the corner not far away.

“Hello—is anyone—” Chi Yongge tentatively called a few times, “Is anyone—”

No one answered.

There is still a red light in the communication center in the distance, it keeps flickering, like a dim and strange lighthouse, tempting them to move forward.

“Is anyone—is anyone—” Chi Yongge was still shouting.

Soon he gave up too.

They arrived at the communication center, all the way up, to the top floor.

The corridor on the top floor was lit, and several corpses were seen. They were about to meet each other soon, and they couldn’t hide their excitement and nervousness. They quickened their pace and pushed open the door of the first control room in the deepest part.

A round-headed robot swerved sharply.

“Oh!” it said in a mechanical voice, “Visitors are not welcome in the dispatch room! Do you have a permit?”

“Where are the others?” Di Wen asked hoarsely, “Where are they?!”

The robot turned around, wondering: “Sorry, I don’t understand what you mean. Do you have a license?”

Lu Tinghan said: “We heard the coordinates on the channel. You take us to meet the person who sent the coordinates.”

“Oh!” The robot turned around again, “Sorry, there is no one else, I have been calling.”

It uses the screen on its head to imitate a smiling face, “Hello, welcome to Dunton! I patrol the city every day. The defense lines here are in good condition, the walls are not damaged, and the defense weapons are in normal operation. You can live in peace!”

It added: “I’m Imperial Correspondent 0293, nice to meet you!”

0293.

They’ve been following correspondent 0293 for almost two years, just a robot.

For a while, everyone was speechless.

Excitement, excitement, emotion and sorrow blend together.

— Leon is intact.

They’ve found their future home, and it’s well worth their trip.

Di Wen asked, “Where’s General Lister? Where did he go?”

As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes fell on the corner of the room. There was a skeleton on a black chair there.

Di Wen’s pupils narrowed suddenly, and he stepped forward a few steps. The skeleton’s skull has bullet holes, he committed suicide, and his epaulettes and blue armbands are so familiar—

She couldn’t help shaking.

This is Liszt.

“Admiral Liszt died in the line of duty 12 years ago.” Robot 0293 replied, “His army defended the monster and died of famine. He gave me the final order to broadcast the coordinates of the capital.” It shows again Smiling face, “Today, you are finally here!”

Di Wen’s hands were shaking.

Liszt finally fulfilled his duties as a general, guarding the capital and her home. She looked at the bone and tried to imagine what he looked like. Liszt was a few years older than her, even 12 years ago, he would have been a gray-haired old man. But no matter how she recalled it, it was the young dull officer in her memory. When she saw her smile, her ears would turn red.

She finally reached out and brought out an old pocket watch in the pocket of the military uniform.

After many years, the pocket watch stopped, and the hands always point to 12:03, a time that has no meaning, and the gold case is still shining.

“Oh,” she said, “I gave it to him.”
