The coexistence of electricity and the thermal energy contained in coal mines is very common in these small countries. There are not many cities that can use all electricity as the main energy output. Most of them are relatively important locations in a small country. Most of them use coal, which is convenient for mining and transportation, and the pollution they cause is completely negligible for these people.
The road conditions change between close to and far from cities. Although the road will pass through the territories of several countries, the routes are always at the junction of two or more countries. The mixture of personnel and regions makes management It seems very confusing. Thanks to this chaos, there was no resistance at all when the bus moved forward. After a few days, no checkpoints were encountered, and no investigators needed to check the immigration status.
The only downside is that it is not very safe. Vettel’s company seems to be somewhat famous in these regions. It was indeed stopped by armed men on the road several times during the itinerary. After identifying their identity, they were all released smoothly at the cost of a few bottles of wine brought from the empire. Medium quality stuff.
It's just that Cassia observes Vettel and the two drivers taking turns in their seats, they don't seem relaxed. It seems that there is luck in these few times. And the farther away from the empire, the more frequent this happens. In Cassia's senses, the appearance of these small countries also changed with the distance from the empire, and their development and stability also changed.
The bus stopped and stopped moving on the eighth day after leaving the Empire. That afternoon, Cassia had read all the books he had brought with him, and was selecting a few of them to read for the second time. The gradual improvement of road conditions let him know that the next city will not be far away.
At about 3:30, the vehicle arrived at a dilapidated station. On the outskirts of the town where low buildings gather, there are many repair shops and weapons shops with direct signs. The name of the gun and the caliber of the bullet were like a menu, written in a sign and hung at the door. All kinds of people gathered on the narrow road, including mercenaries, bounty hunters who took over tasks, the subordinates of black market merchants, and even soldiers in military uniforms. The slow-moving vehicles are all modified vehicles, whether they are welding steel plates indiscriminately, or regular-looking tanks, they are mixed together
Vettel and the others drove the car into the station with iron gates. The iron door uses two layers of 20mm thick steel plates, with a steel column the thickness of a baby's arm in the middle, and is filled with a layer of concrete and hard ceramic mixture. It's very heavy, so I used a steam engine that I didn't know where it was removed, and started it with a reducer and chain.
After the vehicle entered, the two iron doors were tightly closed. The inside is very spacious, comparable to a small regular station in the Empire. Surrounded by a high wall of about three meters, the top of the wall is also tied with barbed wire. About thirty passenger cars of various types were parked on a large open area with irregular parking positions.
There are none of the structures that the station should have, except for the large pipes used for filling steam and filtered clean water. A small two-story building is built on one side of the parking lot, and there are thirty or forty rooms. But that was not for Cassia and the others. They rested on the edge of this small building, and a long canopy-like building was built beside it, and the passengers of more than 30 passenger cars who stayed here stood there.
"Come down to rest. I need to spend it here tonight. If you sleep, I suggest that you don't come in the car. It's only this night if you work hard." Vettel opened the door, walked up and looked around and said, "Eat first. This meal is free, and it can be regarded as compensation for some time delays on the journey. In addition, here is a solemn reminder that no matter what or for any reason, everyone should not leave this station. Although you know that everyone will not, but there will always be more people An accident happened."
In the last few words, Vettel said very strongly:
Besides, don’t go near the wall of the station. It’s best to stay near that small building. If you have anything, you can find it in Room 17 upstairs. I."
"Mr. Vettel, has something happened outside?" someone stood up and asked.
"It's nothing big, it's just that it's been messy here lately. It's going to happen in a couple of days, just one or two days." Vettel replied, "Anyway, you don't have any danger as long as you stay in the station." After speaking, Vettel didn't want to explain anything. After getting off the bus, I pointed to the place where the white smoke was emitting, which was the canteen of the station. The two drivers took out a piece of luggage from the cab, and went to the two-story building with Vettel.
Twenty-three people in the car began to take out some clothes from the luggage. "Nothing will happen, right?" Someone rolled up his clothes and put them in a cloth bag, and asked others, "Did you not see it just now? There are many gun shops outside."
"Nothing will happen. This station is one of the safest places in this town." A middle-aged man in his forties said, "The last time I passed by the car, I stopped. It took two days. One night there was a fight outside. There were gunshots and explosions everywhere. The ground was shaking. It was scary. But in the end nothing happened here. Early the next morning, we We set off on time. There will be nothing wrong. We paid so much money, a small part of which is the travel expenses, and most of it is used to buy safety."
"Have you been here last time?"
"Yes, I went back to rest for a while last year, and this year I will go to the place where I used to work." The middle-aged man said, "Follow Vettel's words and proceed. Whatever he says you do, nothing will happen."
Cassia took a piece of clothing and followed the crowd to the cafeteria while listening to the conversation. The food is crude, but it smells very delicious.
At the same time, on the other side, Vettel and the two drivers have been seated in Room 17. The inside of the room is much larger than it looks outside. There are a total of five people, and there is another man and a woman who are permanent staff members who handle the handover of some affairs.
"A few days ago, didn't you say that this route is very stable? Something happened. Why don't you send us a message or take another route. Even if you go around far, it's much easier than this." Vettel's forehead was all dry. Baba's wrinkled wrinkles, he asked the two people in front of him, "This time I brought the goods."
The two people in front of me gave a wry smile: "We also want to notify you, but we can't keep up. The main radio tower in Filoka Town has been blown up~EbookFREE.me~ It is impossible to connect with you. Things also happen. Suddenly, last night was fine. The ghost knew what had happened. When I woke up, I only knew that something happened next door. It was said that it was four or five in the morning. The town was blown up by nearly one third, and then The fire burned some more, and it was not extinguished until noon today. You saw it when you came. The town of Filoka is usually a quiet place. Just a few hours ago, people from several large trading gathering places around were moving towards Rushing here is what it is now."
"I don't know what happened now, and I sent in to inquire about the news and said that no one there knew what was going on. It's just that the people in Charlotte next door were almost dead. Of course I'm not sure, so many people poured into Filoka, It seems because Charlotte and some of his subordinates came here, and I don't know where they are hiding."
"Charles? No one around should dare to do anything to him, right?" Vettel showed a thoughtful look, "He is from the Kingdom of Boltonland, everyone has guessed it. We have him on the route to the Kingdom of Boltonland. Helping. He has a few regular troops under him, and he has been in contact with Boltonland's senior officials."
"Could it be that something happened inside Boltonland?"
"We won’t be clear in a while. But instead of worrying about this, I think I’d better think about the evening. Charlotte’s reward has come out." The man took out a printed paper, which looked like The brief introduction during the interview clearly introduced Charlotte's situation, and added one sentence afterwards-after catching it alive, let out the news that someone came to you with seven million.
"The common currency of the three giant countries, whichever you want, they provide. I don't know who Charlotte provoked, or who his leader provoked."
