Chapter 734 Hyperion is Approaching

The car was traveling along the winding mountain road of the Knox Mountains.

Hyperion quietly looked out the window and noticed that whenever the car was about to reach a dead end, a traffic sign would appear on the side of the road: "Turn Ahead" or "Caution: Sharp Turn." After each turn, the road ahead would always open up, bright and clear.

"Mountain roads twist and turn, the path meanders."

Hyperion, in a different outfit, murmured to herself.

The words "Turn Ahead" repeatedly struck her eyes, just as Lanqi had once knocked on the door of her heart.

It turned out that it wasn't that the road had come to an end, but that it was time to brake and slow down.

Whenever she felt she was in a desperate situation, Lanqi would appear like a hero and tell her that the sky wasn't falling, but that an opportunity had arrived.

"Hyperion, you're thinking about Lanqi again, aren't you?"

Antanas nudged Hyperion from the side.

"No, I'm not."

"It's still not bad, it's a situation that both sides can barely accept."

Whenever autumn comes, the city often shows a unique charm because of the natural scenery and cultural displays, and tourists are endless.

Spies within the Kingdom United Assembly Alliance territory promptly fed back the situation to the nations.

Inside the car, Cheng Hao Huan leaned forward from the front row and asked with great interest.

In the north, there is a city called Tanas Freely, which is one of the most prosperous main cities in the easternmost border territory of the north.

Cheng Hao seemed to be able to read Hyperion’s eyes, observing her cheeks and asking.

Tanas Plana is surrounded by majestic mountains to the north. The mountains stretch into the clouds, like a natural barrier, isolating the city-state from the northern Knox Mountains. The city's substructure is built on several intersecting mountain peaks, suspended in the air. Most of the buildings are in a deep gray or black classical style.

With Granway, the journey became much smoother.

"Originally, the battle for small-scale energy strategic points in the west was about to enter a white-hot stage, and then it was blown away by the Tenth Army God, Ruby Throne. It might have to add another book to the history books."

Hyperion silently listened to Granway and the Ice Demoness's conversation.

The moment I touched the cigarette case, I was sure the weight was wrong.

"Granway, why do you know so much?"

"Our Chamber of Commerce occasionally feels grateful for the army's contributions. A pack of cigarettes, please accept it with a smile."

"...I came when I was little, I took a boat from the South Wantina territory."

Stone arch bridges are built between the mountain peaks, connecting the buildings into a magnificent whole.

Having passed the border and completed the transfer procedures to the capital, Brielle, they are now heading to the train station.

"Granway, you've changed so much. You've actually learned to carefully observe humans, instead of holding a purely research-oriented attitude."

Folly City also tilted her head and leaned on you.

You heard that Lanqi was considered a second-generation rich kid at first.

Even very worried that Cheng Hao was on the southern front line of the Bosen Kingdom.

Kriti Empire’s magical engineer, Rand Wide Washington, demonstrated the fission phenomenon of magic cards interspersed between matter and magical energy bodies through magical energy bombardment experiments in Brielle.

In the Canberra Kingdom, magical engineers began to conduct preliminary research on magical energy fission.

At first, the countries didn't pay too much attention to this research.

Compared to Tanas Plana, the Hutton Kingdom seemed a little distant.

After everything was completed, the soldier took Cheng Hao Huan to a nearby sentry post and gave him several documents to fill out again.

It doesn't matter at the border. The four of them want to hide their identities in a low-key manner. No one can detect us. Only when infiltrating core main cities like Brielle do we need to turn all the Greater Demons into magic cards to hide them from excessively dense detection.

A moment later.

The officer nodded understandingly and directly took away the documents from Granway's hand.

"I heard that Lord Noel's Wilford Chamber of Commerce was originally in Tanas Plana."

It's just that she is naturally shy and unwilling to admit it.

Hyperion generously assured.

"This is a characteristic of our Northwest Nixasender Territory. If you've been to the Northwest, you'll definitely be sure that we're from there."

Hyperion came back to her senses and shook her head.

On the administrative building of the Empire's General Operations, several special agents cordially received a young imperial professor in a gray coat. Their collusion and overwhelming power seemed to be written on the banner of [Loyalty First, Iron Blood Protects the Country].

After Lanqi’s tireless efforts, the Wilford family has finally been brought to the brink of bankruptcy.

However, it is this isolated geographical location that gives Tanas Cheng Hao Huan a unique commercial advantage.

The Ice Demoness flipped through the newspaper and said.

You worry about it every day.

Of course, according to Granway's speculation, Lanqi may have joined the army on the opposite side...

Xiu Cheng Hao Huan couldn't help but ask.

"Xiu Antanas, have you been here before?"

Porao and Alex Waldson, and other magical engineers, sent a joint letter to Rosemount, Speaker of the Western Hub Area Kingdom United Assembly Alliance, warning that the Kriti Empire may be developing an extremely dangerous destructive weapon.

Hyperion was too embarrassed to embrace left and right.

"Now I think it's pretty good to stay in human society. Isn't it also a process of natural selection that we can become surviving Greater Demons? Maybe the few of us are the most suitable demons to coexist with humans."

In the back row, Xiu Antanas was still sitting in the middle, with Sinolas and Cheng Hao Huan accompanying you on the left and right.

This secret was not even known to the family head, Noel Wilford, because it was a guarantee for the benefactor of the chamber of commerce and would not be exposed to anyone other than the family head. Besides Noel, only the housekeeper Hans, left behind by the mysterious businessman, knew about it.

The Ice Demoness shook her head and said that the Wilford family became rich because of this. Even during wartime, our family also has special freight channels, said to have been left by a mysterious businessman more than a dozen years ago. I invested in the Wilford Chamber of Commerce and helped the Wilford Chamber of Commerce establish a path that could secretly travel back and forth between the Hutton Kingdom and the Kriti Empire.

Without the Ice Demoness saying more, Hyperion's sight followed the newspaper in the Ice Demoness's hand, and she also saw the huge potential threat to the current empire.

And inside the sentry post, a young officer with the rank of First Lieutenant was reviewing documents.

Even transporting a large amount of goods from the southern border of the Hutton Kingdom to the northern border of the Kriti Empire requires detouring to the east, and reaching the destination via sea routes and merchant ships, which undoubtedly increases the cost and difficulty of transportation.

Or rather, in the Northern Continent, it was a miracle that someone could bring Granway out of the Herlom Underground Prison.

But Xiu Cheng Hao Huan was still worried about Lanqi.

Granway lowered his voice by half and said.

To the east is a vast sea, with waves lapping against the reefs on the shore, making bursts of roaring sounds. During the peak season, merchant ships are always coming and going in the docks. The sails are fluttering in the sea breeze, and seagulls circling above the masts, making continuous cries.

Granway asked respectfully.

Everything was written clearly in Hyperion's eyes.

"It's very simple. If you can't even understand the thoughts of ordinary humans, it'll be difficult to understand what Cheng Hao is thinking."

While we were chatting, the vehicle had slowly approached the checkpoint guarded by the 8th Division of the Kriti Empire's 1st Border Defense Army.

Always bringing Cheng Hao Huan and Folly City back to the Duke's Mansion to play together, now you feel that you might not be used to living alone in the Duke's Mansion anymore.

Sinolas sighed with emotion.

I explained this phenomenon at the Saint Kriti Monastery and proposed the term "Magical Energy Pen Change", and also estimated the huge energy released during the fission process through calculations.

Granway saluted the officer and turned to walk steadily out of the sentry post.

"We are trade representatives from the Northwest Border Chamber of Commerce. We are taking stock of the last batch of trade goods on the east coast and are now preparing to go to the capital to discuss acquisition business with companies there."

Your expression has also become much more serious since then.

Then came a comprehensive search of the vehicle.

But now, Tanas Freely, near the front line of the Eastern Theater, has become a heavily guarded main city of the Empire, as strict as a fortress.

"Fortunately, the allied spies are very reliable and can always obtain the Empire's core research results very quickly. According to the current intelligence, the progress of research on the Kriti Empire side is still not good. There seems to be internal disagreement. This cake is also big enough, and it has been temporarily determined that there is no leading candidate."

The officer lightly opened a corner of the cigarette case with one hand, and found several rolls of small-denomination banknotes inside. He naturally closed it well.

A moment later, the vehicle started again, slowly passing through the checkpoint and heading towards the Tanas Plana State Station.

In your opinion, Granway and the Ice Demoness are more like the older generation, while Sinolas and Cheng Hao Huan are more like your peers.

"Teacher, how's the situation on the front line?"

"We have to stay here for seventy-seven hours, re-declare and re-check the dangerous information with your province before we can pass."

Separated by the long Knox Mountains, the two countries are separated. The First Lieutenant hesitated for a moment, but still took the cigarette case.

The woman in the driver's seat lowered the car window and showed the officer a document stamped with the bright red seal of the "Chaotic World Chamber of Commerce" of the Northwest Nixasender Territory.

Granway took out a new cigarette case from his briefcase and handed it to the officer.

I looked polite, and my tone was calm and polite.

Until now, when the Wilford Chamber of Commerce was failing, the housekeeper Hans mentioned the past to Granway in a casual chat.

Cheng Hao Huan once again followed Hyperion's absent-minded gaze out the window.

Hearing this, Folly City, who was sitting on the other side of Hyperion, twitched the corner of her eye.

"Don't forget your two good friends."

"This 'Imperial Hound'," Hyperion nodded.

Granway was driving, while the Ice Demoness was sitting in the passenger seat looking at the map and newspaper.

We observed that the magic cards were united into lighter god-era elements, which were of the same origin as the natural magic cards of the Shadow World, or rather, this was a certain origin of the Shadow Weaving World. This discovery revealed the possibility of magical energy fission.

"Any problems, officer?"

Just as the First Lieutenant looked up at Granway in confusion.

Granway, while agreeing, keenly alerted the officer who might be a "suitable" target, and approached the other party.

Who in this photo could be harboring ulterior motives? Only this professor, my warlord temperament, doesn't seem to be acting.

Logically speaking, being surrounded by seven Greater Demons is a terrifying thing. If you hadn't tried the Purgatory Corridor Academy a year ago, you would have been scared to tears, but now the Greater Demons seem to have all become your relatives and friends.

Now that they have arrived at the border of the Kriti Empire, except for Hyperion, in order to make it easier for the few of them to protect her on the road, Florence has also done her best to arrange identities for the four Greater Demons.

If I didn't have this ability, I wouldn't have agreed to let Xiu Cheng Hao Huan go to the Kriti Empire, but would have used the most secure decision to fulfill Lanqi's instructions and keep Xiu Antanas in Iquetet.

In early October, the outbreak of the full-scale war on the Southern Continent caused the Empire's military to quickly pay attention to the potential of magical energy fission weapons.

The officer said in an official tone, revealing a hint of tacit understanding in his eyes.

"It's okay, there's no need to worry about money. My money can be spent on you. When the war starts, if the Wilford Chamber of Commerce wants to resume business, the Duke's family will invest in the Wilford Company."

As the vehicle slowed down for inspection, imperial soldiers immediately stepped forward to check.

"No problem, officer."

However, there is no concept of seniority among demons, who are long-lived species, otherwise it would become quite chaotic. It is possible that a demon whose seniority is much lower than yours is actually older than you.

Antanas sighed helplessly with a smile, and said nothing more.

It is like a bright pearl, embedded in the northern borderland of the Kriti Empire.

And I am also proud of this, with my back straight and my thumb raised.

"Rich woman, don't abandon us when you become a duchess."

Sinolas looked at Xiu Cheng Hao Huan's confident look and couldn't help but hug your slender arm, looking at you pleadingly.

Greatly promoted the Allied Council's attention to this research.

Until your gaze stopped on a photo.

Granway said sincerely.

"At first glance, you are a benevolent businessman. Serving the empire can't delay your time. I wish you a smooth journey."

Granway was driving, answering without turning your head.

As an ordinary Demon Eye possessor, I was able to tell that the officer was not moved by this method.

Granway muttered to himself, looking at the road ahead.

Therefore, the first thing to do when getting along with long-lived species is to abandon the concept of seniority inherent in humans and get along with them naturally.

Including Alex Waldson, Quentin Hayes, and other magical engineers, conducted important experimental work at the Western Hub Elementary School and the Slovenian Elementary School.

Logically speaking, our documents are also fine, but they may be stuck for a relatively long time, which will delay some time.

Xiu Cheng Hao Huan watched with an itchy feeling.

The soldiers carefully reviewed the documents, and then ordered the people in the car to get out for inspection.

The Ice Demoness said from the passenger seat.

Lanqi said in the last contact that he would join the army and lose contact for a period of time.

Too light.

The Kriti Empire south of the Hutton Kingdom.

Immediately afterwards.

Of course, there were originally a lot of things around Lanqi that I didn't understand. Lanqi always played to the extreme, and Cheng Hao Huan had to learn to try to understand Lanqi's thoughts for safety.

"The Duke's family can stay as long as they want.
