Chapter 319 The Eve of the Wedding (4000)

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, washing away the Covenant City.

Most rooms in the Tomorrow Group Building are still lit.

The Imperial Congress election is approaching, and even if she is sure of winning, Irina does not dare to slack off. She kept her promise at the palace banquet and slimmed down the Tomorrow Group, which naturally brought a heavy workload.

And the intuition she developed from being in danger for many years told her...something unexpected would definitely happen.

She stood in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window, and the city in the rain was hazy and noisy.

As the sound of the lifting of the ban on the office door sounded, Angelica walked in with a tray: "Night shift extra meal. Mashed potatoes, bacon bread and oatmeal milk...Poor Helot, I don’t know what he can eat in Northern Xinjiang. I heard that people in Northern Xinjiang like to eat raw meat.”

“Angelica, what do you think…” Irina turned around and asked, “What if Hailot marries her. With Princess Emmalu Bailey, can he convince Duke Erwin to allow us to develop the earth fire magma?"

Angelica put the food on the desk: "I believe that Herot must The stubborn Duke can be persuaded, but if the Tomorrow Group obtains the development of Earth Fire Magma, it will definitely be feared by the Empire... Perhaps this is also Duke Erwin's concern."

"You are right. Duke Erwin must have had concerns. During the Bloody Rebellion, the then Duke of Ice and Snow was opposed to exterminating the rebel families." Irina sat back at her desk. She didn't touch the food first, but took it from the drawer. Take out a folder, open it and read it carefully: "I saw your latest body upgrade report. There is a slight rejection of the new thermal ultra-high pressure reactor, but you refused to dismantle and restore it... This is not in line with the upgrade process."

Angelica smiled easily and said: "At my level, how can I not reject new technologies? I know my body better than anyone else. What it needs now is running-in. After running-in for a while, it will become compatible." 
Irina was helpless about Angelica's point of view.

Some technologies for mechanically transforming humans simply cannot be explained scientifically. Maybe all the calculations are accurate, but it just doesn't work after assembly, and the reason can't be found; or maybe, as Angelica said, the repulsion disappears after running in, and the reason can't be found either.

This is also one of the reasons why it is difficult for mechanical reformers to unify standards.

Irina had no choice but to sign the document and remind Angelica: "Maybe you are right, but you cannot rely on running-in for body compatibility. I ask you to do it every twelve hours Conduct an airframe performance evaluation, and three special engineers will issue an evaluation report to me. ”

Angelica complained: "Does it need to be so troublesome?"

Irina said solemnly: "Angelica, I am your chief engineer, and I know the risks of this upgrade better than anyone else. Including you. Promise me to check regularly at the time I ask... I don't want to lose you, and Helot doesn't want to lose you."

Angelica stood still: "Yes, madam..."

At this moment, Angelica suddenly raised her head, and her body suddenly accelerated to move to the window. The night scene on the window disappeared and turned into a steel wall. The scene just now was all a magic projection.

The wall shook violently, and a bulge bulged inward.

Then the alarm in the whole building rang: "Attention everyone! Attention everyone! Tomorrow the group building will be invaded by unknown armed men. All non-combatants are requested to retreat to the safe house in an orderly manner according to the guidelines.

Group Security The personnel are engaged in battle, please don't panic...

Everyone's attention! Everyone's attention..."

The wall shook again, and another bulge appeared.

Angelica breathed a sigh of relief. The president's office has been specially reinforced and attackers will not be able to break in for a short time. She turned around and walked towards Irina, reaching for the remote control to open a secret door: "I will escort you out of here, and then come back to teach these clowns who are looking for death."

Facing the attack, Irina didn't appear nervous, but relaxed a lot.

During this time, she had been worried about when the attack would happen. Now that it's here, just follow the emergency plan.

Irina picked up the oatmeal and milk, and walked into the secret door escorted by Angelica. The elevator would take her to the deepest level of the underground.

Five minutes later, the elevator door opened, and a group of mechanical cyborg guards were waiting for the door, all in fighting postures with their mechanical bodies exposed.

The headed mechanical guard saluted Irina: "President! The intruders who broke in from the first floor are the mechanical transformers of the Black Gold Group, led by the third generation of extraordinary Bell Leon. They used an airship to airborne from the top floor. It's the zombies and the corpse puppets they control. The magic surveillance shows that there is a suspected third-level extraordinary person who has broken through the steel wall of the president's office

Now the zombies and corpse puppets are attacking from the top. The black gold group's mechanical robots have entered the underground part, and the group's security forces are resisting. "

Deep Prison Attacks Tomorrow Group Can you still understand how the Black Gold Group dares to blatantly attack the headquarters of Tomorrow Group in the imperial capital? Isn't that old guy Uribe afraid of being liquidated by the empire?

But now is not the time to consider the reason why the Black Gold Group went crazy.

Irina immediately ordered: "You all follow Angelica to resist the invaders and do your best to protect our personnel. "

Angelica said: "Let them stay here to protect you, and I will deal with the intruders above. ”

Irina insisted: "Take them all away. If you fight off the intruders, I will be safe here."

At this moment, the Tomorrow Group is suffering heavy losses every minute, Angelica Waved his hand to let these mechanical transformation people enter the elevator, and then said to Irina: "I don't know what other forces are involved in this invasion now. If you find that the situation cannot be reversed, leave immediately! As long as I live, I will find you!" 
When Angelica turned around and entered the elevator, Irina grabbed her hand: "Full power must not exceed ten minutes. Remember, it must not exceed ten minutes!"

Angelica didn't look back, just nodded, then broke away from Irina's hand and entered the elevator.

She didn't look back until the elevator door closed.

As the elevator went up, Angelica turned around, took out a metal mask and put it on her face.

“Brothers! I didn’t expect that one day, those assembled waste products from the Black Gold Group would dare to attack us, right?”

“Sister, we really didn’t expect it! They met us before, but they didn’t expect it. They're all going around."

Angelica's body skills were activated layer by layer, and her eyes shot out red light: "If they come today, don't let them leave again." Leave the semi-finished products to me, you can do whatever you want."

"Yes, big sister!"

The elevator shook violently, and the battlefield was approaching.

Angelica looked at the floor and saw that the intruder was moving very quickly.

Angelica pulled out the knife from her wrist: "Destroy the intruders, protect our personnel... go out and fight!"

The elevator door opened, all the robots sprayed steam, and followed An Jellica rushed out...

……………………

In northern Xinjiang, heavy snow has blocked roads and isolated this frozen zone into an "isolated island."

The people from Northern Xinjiang who gather around Snow City live in their own igloos all day long. They will not go out unless necessary. This can reduce the consumption of calories and naturally reduce the intake of food.

They need to make rational use of limited food to survive the entire freezing season.

But the wedding of the Ice and Snow Duke’s daughter is a festival that every northern Xinjiang person will celebrate.

Even if they cannot climb to the iceberg and snow peaks to witness the wedding in person, people in northern Xinjiang still light bonfires in their villages and express their joy with a banquet filled with singing and dancing.

The people of Northern Xinjiang respect the Ice and Snow Family because the ice castle blocks the cold monsters on the polar plateau, allowing the people of Northern Xinjiang to stand at the top of the food chain in Northern Xinjiang without being hunted by the cold monsters. After nightfall, looking down from the iceberg snow peaks, the bonfires around the snow city are dotted, as bright and charming as the starry sky.

Helot followed the team of the Skovo family and escorted Princess Emmalu Bailey to the top of the iceberg snow peak and entered the ice castle.

This castle seems to be really made of solid ice, with no visible stones wrapped in ice. Under the moonlight, the entire castle exudes crystal clear light. Standing on the wall of the castle, it feels like you are in a fairy tale world... There is a princess waiting for the prince to save her.

Now, the whole ice castle is preparing for tomorrow's wedding.

In the square in front of the main castle, craftsmen are working with magicians to make ice sculptures; watchman soldiers are learning etiquette under the leadership of their respective commanders, as well as their positions at weddings.

The chefs in the kitchen will be making food all night long, and those frozen and hard pieces of meat are not easy to handle.

All the servants have been assigned jobs, and everyone is busy, which reflects the idler Helot.

Helot was lying on the city wall, looking down the mountain...

Breshini has not come back yet. She must have encountered something difficult, which made Herot Some bad intuitions are getting stronger.

"Bonebreaker Mage, so you are here." Panier walked up to the city wall and looked in the direction that Herot was looking at: "What are you looking at?"

Helot said with a smile: "Today The weather is so good, there are no clouds, and you can clearly see the bonfire burning at the bottom of the mountain. I'm wondering... will this be the last time I see such a scene after your wedding with Her Royal Highness is over tomorrow. I want to go into the polar regions to find the power I want to have."

Pannier said regretfully: "I didn't expect that my sincerity still can't impress you, but I admire your persistence. I persuade you... When the fog clears, everything will become clear.

Come and have a drink with me. It is difficult for members of the Scovo family and the Erwin family to gather together, but we plan to. Drink until dawn, after all, you can’t indulge anymore after getting married!”

Helot took one last look down the mountain, and then followed Panier to the main castle.

The hall was extremely lively.

There are three large fire pits burning in the middle, with a whole lamb grilled on them. The fat dripping in the fire makes a sizzling sound, and the whole hall is filled with the aroma of barbecue.

Members of the Erwin family and the Skovo family sat around, each holding a large wine glass and holding meat in the other hand, drinking and eating meat. When he gets excited about drinking, he runs to the middle and dances in a circle around the fire.

Everyone is happy.

Panil whispered to Hailot: "You should know the true condition of her body from Her Royal Highness, but most people here don't know. They all think that Her Highness has fully recovered. Please help We keep it a secret and let them celebrate tonight at least.”

tonight?

Why not before the wedding ends tomorrow?

Helot responded: "I am not a person who talks nonsense."

At this time, someone saw Panier coming in and shouted: "Look who is that? It turns out to be Snow The fiancé of Her Majesty the Princess. I propose to get him drunk tonight to see if Sister Emmalu Bailey will kick his ass at the wedding tomorrow."

"This is a good idea! Come here, I want to have a drink with you. Don’t worry, we will carry you to the auditorium tomorrow.”

"Hahaha..."

Pannier was dragged by several people to drink.

Seeing that Panil had no time to pay attention to him, Herot walked to a side door and got in after seeing that no one noticed him.

Helot did not choose to be invisible this time. Snow Castle is the headquarters of the Erwin family. There are countless strong people. He is not a professional thief, and his invisibility can be easily broken.

Anyway, everyone in the castle is busy preparing for the wedding. If I leave in a swagger, I will not arouse suspicion.

It would look even more like holding a large sculpture in his hands.

Helot chose an expensive bust with a professional eye, picked it up and left.

As expected, no one stopped him along the way, and everyone made way for him, for fear of making a mistake and damaging the statue.

Just like that, we arrived at Princess Emmalu Bailey’s room smoothly.

As expected, no one was watching.

Heroot pushed the door open and walked in with the statue in his arms...

When he saw the people in the room, he turned around and walked out.

As a result, someone called him: "Stop, what are you doing in here?"

Helot turned around, blocked the front with a statue, and replied: "I'm sorry, I went to the wrong room." 
“Don’t you know me?”

Helot recalled how he had just met the man, and then out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of Emmalu Bailey standing respectfully next to him.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty the Duke. I am a servant of Snow Castle. I have only met you once before, and I didn't recognize you just now."

The person in Emmalu Bailey's room is E Duke Irvine, he is tall and square in appearance, with hair and beard as white as snow. If it weren't for his tone and Emma Lubeli's respectful attitude that made Herot guess his identity, their father and daughter's appearance would really be nothing alike.

Duke Erwin originally wanted to let this servant who broke in rashly go, but his understanding of his daughter allowed him to see a clue from Emmalu Bailey's expression.

"I remembered, this sculpture is placed here, you are not wrong." Duke Erwin pointed to the corner of the room: "You put it there, don't get too close to the wall... ”

Helot's heart tightened, what a coincidence!

But we can only take one step at a time.

Helot walked to the location designated by Duke Erwin and placed the sculpture on the ground, slightly away from the wall.

Duke Erwin said dissatisfied: "It doesn't look good there! Put it in that position, with the front facing the left."

Helot moved the statue and changed its position. Place it and adjust the direction.

Duke Erwin added: "It won't work if you put it there. Let's put it in the same position just now and move it in a little bit..."

Helot moved it and then changed the place.

“It doesn’t look good, it doesn’t look good…”

Helot said angrily: “No more pretending, I’m showing off my cards!”
