Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 444
[Chapter 442 Another Possibility]
Tirian walked into the meeting place.
There is no gentle music that symbolizes the upper class, and it is not in any high-end and luxurious banquet hall. This is just a living room under the Port Authority, and the reception staff are several representatives of the military—a few faces, He still has some impressions.
Have dealt with in recent years.
Liszt stood up and faced the “big pirate” who entered the room.
“I’m sorry, our conditions are limited at this time,” the defense commander stretched out his hand, with an apologetic tone, “I can only prepare this kind of reception in a hurry.”
Tirian did not respond to the other party immediately Instead, he raised his head and looked around—a few representatives in Frost Navy uniforms stood behind Liszt, their expressions were quite natural, but the other entourage and attendants were obviously not so relaxed. Some people were secretly looking at the undead people who walked into the room together, and some people pretended to be calm and turned their eyes to other places, but there was only one thing in common: apart from the nervousness in their eyes, there was only exhaustion that could not be concealed.
Tirian laughed and reached out to shake Liszt’s hand.
“That’s good – if you really prepare a grand dinner for me at this time, and even find a few violin players to make trouble, then there is no need for us to talk.” Feeling the situation in front of
me Liszt’s expression twitched slightly due to the strength from the hand of a “Steel Lieutenant General”, and then he withdrew his hand with a bit of embarrassment in his tone: “You have prejudice against us, but you actually know the truth ——We just have different positions, but as soldiers, today’s Frost Navy is still the same as you were back then, and will firmly defend our city-state.”
“Yes, I know, and I have witnessed it with my own eyes. If it weren’t for this, I would never accept your invitation, General,” Tirian smiled, glanced at the badge on Liszt’s chest, and said “General” There was a slight pause when he was given the title, then he shook his head, and said as he walked towards the center of the room, “Let’s stop here, I know what time it is now, we can talk about this city, about the future, Or——if you have the courage, you can also talk about my father.”
“Your father…” Liszt sat down on the sofa, and when he heard the other party’s last words, his body stiffened obviously, and he fell down. In a second, the scene that was enough to impress all Frost people for a lifetime reappeared in his mind – the giant reflected from the boundless sea, the eyes that opened in the clouds like two suns, and the scene torn apart from the city. , Stripped out, and burned to ashes in the hands of giant mirror image city-state.
A kind of trembling from the soul was surging, Liszt forcibly suppressed his own memories, and looked at the big pirate sitting opposite him with lingering fear.
“So, that’s really your father, the one who returned from the subspace…” He hesitated to speak, and he seemed to get nervous every time he uttered a word, as if just talking and mentioning it like this would make him An indescribable gaze was drawn to himself, “It was he who shot at the last moment…but that gesture never appeared in…” “It will appear
in the records from now on,” Tirian shrugged, “Li Si General Te, congratulations, Frost will be the first city-state to witness and record this event.”
He paused for a moment before asking, “I’m curious, how is the atmosphere in the city now, especially How do you guys think about this?”
“Tension and fear still prevail in the city and I must admit it was a difficult night for everyone – the disaster ended, but in a way that most people couldn’t understand and deeply shuddered, many of them I’m guessing what the existence that descended on the sea at the end is, but I think…if they really know, the panic may be even worse,” Liszt said with a sigh, “The city hall is also sorting out After a lot of information and clues, I dared to guess that it was your father—don’t blame us for being slow, that scene was too shocking, and anyone would have to hesitate for a long time.” “I can understand,” Tirian sighed, with a subtle
expression “He didn’t tell me that before, and I was shocked just like you.”
Liszt looked at the big pirate in front of him, and a strange feeling arose in his heart, which was mixed with uncontrollable curiosity. People are instinctively nervous when facing unknown fears, and he can’t help but imagine, how will this “son of Duncan” communicate with his terrible father? How did their father and son decide to help Frost? The shadow who returned from the subspace… how does he view the present world?
“I want to ask,” the general who was promoted from the front line couldn’t help but said, “Your father…has he really regained his humanity as rumored?”
Tirian was surprised when he heard this: “Isn’t he in any way human?”
In Liszt’s mind, the giant standing in the sky suddenly appeared, and a scene of a city-state being burned to ashes and crushed into powder by the giant’s hands emerged. He opened his mouth and brewed Offensive words, but dare not say a word.
After holding back for a long time, the Frost General only said with a sullen face: “I believe that he does have a human heart now…”
Tirian laughed: “I also believe that your words come from the heart Yes.”
After finishing speaking, the Leng Lenghai pirate picked up the red wine glass on the coffee table and solemnly raised it to Liszt: “Let us toast to this mutual trusting friendship.” Liszt: “
… …”
The Frost General raised his wine glass, clinked it with Tirian with a stiff smile, took a sip and put it down again: “Then may I ask what you and your father want to do next?
” With a particularly calm look: “I don’t know.”
Liszt’s eyes widened immediately: “You don’t know?”
“He hasn’t told me yet,” Tirian spread his hands, but there was an uncontrollable happy smile in his eyes I mean, he has been fighting wits and bravery with the Frost Navy for half a century, but only this “friendly conversation” tonight made him most happy, “Originally, I came here only because of my father’s order, and after participating in the battle, it was just In order to protect the city that Her Majesty Queen Le Nora once protected, I have never thought about the plan after this, it depends on my father’s mood.”
Liszt said subconsciously: “Then how can we contact yours? Father?”
Tirian raised his eyelids with a half-smile: “…Do you really want to contact me? Then let me tell you a ceremony…” “
Ah, that’s not necessary,” Liszt felt his back tense immediately, and hurriedly moved away. Waving his hand, “I just mentioned it casually.”
“When talking about ‘him’, it’s best not to have the habit of mentioning it casually, because you can’t tell when ‘he’ will really pay attention to you,” mentioning Ryan said, his expression suddenly changed slightly, as if thinking of some unpleasant memories, he immediately shook his head, looked at Liszt and changed his tone, “Relax, young man, I was just joking with you That’s all, you are all too tense, this is the first time the Sea Fog Fleet has ‘come home’ after 50 years, shouldn’t we have a relaxed atmosphere like a family reunion?” The young man… the corner of Liszt’s mouth seems
to
be He trembled for a while, but immediately restrained the embarrassment, and then his face became serious: “General Tirian, then I will not hide it, frankly… Frost is in trouble now.”
“I know, we just settled it.”
“No, I’m not talking about the vision invasion… That invasion was not a trouble, but a disaster. Now that the disaster is over, the follow-up troubles will follow. Now the order of Frost is shaky, even if this night is safe After a while, we still have to solve a lot of problems such as public security, supplies, maritime safety…” “
What does that have to do with me?” Tirian leaned back on the sofa, calmly looking into Liszt’s eyes “I’m a rebel—I don’t understand these things.”
Before Liszt could say the rest, he was choked back by Tirian’s attitude.
However, after a few seconds of embarrassment, he quickly sorted out his emotions, and opened his mouth again as if he wanted to say something.
But a rhythmic knock on the door suddenly interrupted what he wanted to say.
The door of the living room opened, and an elegant man in a well-dressed gown, with meticulously combed hair and gold-rimmed glasses walked into the room.
“I hope my coming is not too abrupt.” With a gentle smile on his face, the man wearing gold-rimmed glasses greeted the host and guest in the room, and then walked straight to the reception table, “Can I join?”
” Oh, Mr. Confidential Secretary,” Tirian looked at the young man who appeared in the room for a moment, and suddenly recalled him, with a smile on his face, “I know your glasses—and your hairstyle.” Liszt
looked Xiang Confidential Secretary quickly asked, “Is there any news from the City Hall?”
The Confidential Secretary nodded, and replied softly, “It is the City Hall.”
Tirian, who was on the side, said, “Let me make a statement first. I’m not interested in your city hall resolution—we’re rebels…”
Before he could finish speaking, the well-dressed confidential secretary suddenly turned his face, and while putting a document on the coffee table, Looking into Tirian’s eyes: “So is there another possibility?”
He paused, pushed the document over, and said softly—
“The Tirian Consul has arrived at the frost of his loyalty.”
