Don't confiscate my citizenship

Chapter 708 Lan Qi’s Chosen Imperial People

The autumn afternoon sun and golden leaves flew past the window. The slightly opened car window filled the air in the compartment with a light wood fragrance, like the smell of pine and cypress.

"I believe that the Crean Empire is in the midst of unprecedented changes. Since the National Renaissance became strong, many aspects have undergone earth-shaking changes."

Lan Qi, who looked like an old man, knocked on the table in a serious and deep tone.

"First of all, in the cultural field, the royal family vigorously promoted nationalism and heroism, reawakening the pride of the Creation nation, and writers and thinkers such as Julius Wolfe and Felix Roth received unprecedented esteem. , their ideas have become an important part of the national ideology. At the same time, "degenerate" art schools such as modernism and expressionism have been purged and suppressed, which is actually a bad phenomenon. "

"In terms of social life, St. Baldo Hoffmann-Temple the Great implemented a series of policies aimed at shaping the image of the Creation people. For example, he advocated a strong body and a tall figure, and advocated that women should return to traditional roles and give birth. More children. Some commoners such as the Estes and Roma whose ancestors migrated from many northern kingdoms are increasingly being excluded in the central city-state, which has once again divided the contradiction between the nobles and the common people."

"At present, we are vigorously developing the military industry and improving the employment situation, so that the Creation Empire has strengthened in the southern continent. Although we are in a turbulent era, under the banner of the empire's revival, the internal problems of the Creation nation have gradually spread outward. Spread, it should indeed show a vigorous attitude in the short term, but do you think this is really good..."

The magic rail train is still speeding on the horizon.

Lan Qi, who pretended to be an old publisher, chatted with the young man in the same cubicle about the empire's culture, fashion, the situation in recent years, and trade.

He sat back on the soft chair cushions, sometimes chatting, sometimes looking at the vast mountains outside the window to confirm roughly where they were.

They tower into the clouds and are so majestic that they make you feel insignificant.

This magnificent beauty can always soothe people's hearts and gradually calm down their anxious and restless moods.

At present, it seems that they will reach Brilda, the capital of Creation, in less than an hour.

"That's right, Mr. Lovia, the hidden dangers of the empire actually exist. The disadvantages of this war are just selectively ignored by many people. I think we should not only study in this direction, but also study it seriously. ”

Landry, a young man with black hair and blue eyes, agreed.

The two of them chatted all the way.

While chatting, Lan Qi also discovered that although Landry, a talented and talented Imperial man, held an opposition to the war, it was difficult to conceal his far-right thoughts.

He believes that internal troubles should be eliminated through non-war means, vigorously develop the imperial magic engineering, defeat the countries of the Southern Continent Alliance in the trade war, win over and gradually disintegrate the alliance, and let the Creation Empire be the leader, and also It is to restore hegemony through peaceful means.

However, if you think about it carefully, a young teacher who is directly employed by St. Creation's Monastery will not be comparable to ordinary people in terms of skills and knowledge in the professional field. On the contrary, he has demonstrated skills that are different from what he should have at his age. Erudite.

Just when Lan Qi was about to continue talking about the empire's development strategy, a familiar female voice sounded in Lan Qi's heart.

"Lan Qi, don't be too selfless in your acting. I know you are a top charlatan, but sometimes you are so pure that people can't tell whether you are a charlatan or a real member of the Iron-Blooded Empire."

Talia knew that Ranchi was good at quickly integrating into the environment.

Correspondingly, after he came to the Empire, he really looked too much like an Imperial person.

It was almost as if he had regarded himself as an Imperial person, and even thought from the perspective of an Imperial person.

She had some doubts that this guy was like this in the Protos Empire.

"Don't worry, when the time comes for my glorious return, you will be able to tell my identity at a glance. I am obviously a member of the Kingdom with upright roots."

Lan Qi promised in his heart.

It's just a matter of doing as the Romans do.

"That's good."

Thalia was afraid that she would become a spy if she followed Lanqi in the Creja Empire.

She is now an old Icerite, and her position is quite firm.

In this life, I hope to retire in the Hutton Kingdom.

Just when Lan Qi's thoughts were about to drift away, he clearly felt that the speed of the car was slowing down.

Gradually it stopped.

Lan Qi and the young man looked up at each other in unison, with a trace of doubt in their eyes.

"Will the magic rail train still stop?"

Lan Qi asked in confusion.

This was the first time he encountered this situation.

"It's rare that this happens."

Landry, a young man with black hair and blue eyes, also agreed.

They felt that the passengers in other compartments were also noisy and seemed confused as to what was going on.

Just then, there was a buzzing sound and the sound of a microphone being raised.

A magnetic male voice came from the train announcement, attracting their attention.

"Dear passengers, I'm sorry to disturb you. We have received news that there are extremely dangerous elements on this train. Our police officers are currently investigating the suspicious persons. Please stay calm, don't panic, and don't move around at will. We We have requested help from the Brilda City State, and Imperial Army reinforcements are arriving quickly. Thank you for your cooperation."

The voice of the announcement was slightly distorted, but still appeared calm to ensure the safety of passengers.

As soon as he finished speaking, the originally peaceful train suddenly became commotion.

Not long after, footsteps and whispers could be heard faintly in the corridor. The passengers were obviously frightened by the sudden news.

Talia's voice suddenly sounded in Lan Qi's heart again.

"Lanqi, if you don't run away, your identity may have been exposed. It will be very dangerous to go to Brilda."

Thalia didn't know what was going on, but she was ready to help Lanqi fight at any time.

The information in the broadcast just now probably refers to Lan Qi, the traitor.

At this distance, it was possible to escape. At least the military god would not go out so easily. He would leave the capital Brilda and come to the remote mountains to capture prisoners.

"Extremely dangerous people, that obviously does not refer to me. I am not extreme or dangerous at all."

Lan Qi argued hard and was very confident.

"..."

Thalia didn't know how to continue talking to Ranchi.

She felt that Lao Sang would not object to Lan Qi's words.

However, she actually felt that Lan Qi's actions along the way were very rigorous and there was no reason for them to be exposed.

Lanqi's only one on the line was Nigel, and he hadn't even had contact with other Posen spies since he came to the empire.

"I just have to continue playing the Imperial role and do what I have to do."

Lanci reassured Talia and comforted her.

Before the dust settles, always maintain your identity and acting skills. If it is a psychological warfare, you must bet to the end and never mess up your position first. This is Lan Qi's principle.

Once you take the initiative to expose your flaws, you are truly exposed.

"I'll listen to you."

Thalia responded.

Lan Qi's consciousness also returned to reality from his mind.

He saw the young man with black hair and blue eyes sitting opposite frown his brows, and there was a hint of solemnity in his eyes.

Landry subconsciously leaned his hand on the inside of his coat, as if he was ready to deal with possible dangers.

"Are there many extremely dangerous elements around the capital Brilda?"

Lan Qi asked in a low voice.

He felt that the young man opposite seemed to have a deeper understanding of Brilda's internal situation, and might even have some clues.

"Not long after the external war started, the entire empire is indeed on the cusp of the storm. The empire's screening is very strict and it will never tolerate internal problems."

Landry shook his head, his tone cautious.

Lan Qi nodded in agreement.

The conflict between the nobles and the people within the empire has been around for a long time. Although the two sides maintain a delicate balance on the surface, they have never stopped competing secretly. They even triggered large-scale civil strife many years ago, leaving many historical problems.

If the Creation Empire goes to war, it will be a good time for internal rebels to take advantage of it.

But I didn't expect that their tentacles had actually extended to civilian trains.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the cubicle.

The sounds of orders, warnings, and fighting were all chaotic, and seemed to be mixed with the roar of explosions, getting closer and closer to Car No. 4.

Immediately afterwards, a shrill scream suddenly pierced the sky, as if someone had suffered inhuman abuse, but it quickly disappeared and seemed to have died.

Lan Qi and the young man with black hair and blue eyes looked at each other again, each other's eyes filled with shock and uneasiness.

"Mr. Lovia, it is necessary for me to go out and see the situation. At this moment, we cannot allow those inner cancers who want to harm the empire to do evil."

The young man with black hair and blue eyes gritted his teeth and spoke firmly.

It seems that these people who provoke civil unrest have been deeply hated for a long time.

"I'll go out and check the situation. You stay here and don't move. Pay attention to your safety."

After saying that, he used the magic card to transform into a gun-like staff and strode out of the box.

"Be careful, Mr. Landry!"

Lan Qi watched him leave the cubicle, feeling slightly worried.

With the sixth-level strength of the young teacher with black hair and blue eyes, he should be able to withstand most storms.

Unless absolutely necessary, Lan Qi would never take action, because the old Mr. Lovia he is playing is not of a high rank and has no fighting ability.

as expected.

Not long after the young man with black hair and blue eyes left, the entire train trembled violently, and the train that had stopped seemed to have hit something.

At the same time, there was a deafening explosion, and part of the carriage was instantly engulfed in flames!

The violent vibration almost knocked Lan Qi to the ground, his ears buzzed, and his vision was obscured by the dazzling firelight and billowing smoke.

At least a six-level battle occurred.

"Meow meow meow! Lan Qi is the vehicle killer!"

Boss Cat hid in the shadow and shivered.

It's had enough!

I was on a boat with Lan Qi and encountered a shipwreck.

Taking an airship with Lan Qi, they encountered a plane crash.

Are you going to get into an accident if you take the rail train with Lan Qi?

Lan Qi really has a grudge against Zhi Zhi, right?

Wait, it seems to be there in every accident.

Could it be a vehicle killer too?

Meow.

Boss Cat fell into thinking.

Thick smoke billowed outside cubicle No. 404 and flowed into the cubicle along the crack in the door.

Lan Qi crawled to the door and opened the box door with force, but was forced back by the heat wave.

Relying on Boss Cat's telekinesis magic, he quickly opened the compartment.

It wasn't until the smoke and dust cleared that he could clearly see the tragic situation inside the carriage.

The once elegant and tidy corridor was now in a mess, with broken furniture swaying here and there, scorched marks and winding cracks everywhere, and a pungent burnt smell filled the air, making him choke and cover his mouth.

Some of the bright overhead lights had been shattered, and some were flickering on and off. Sparks shot out from time to time, illuminating the entire carriage and making it look like a ghost. There were several corpses of guards lying on the ground.

Almost all the imperial guards in the car were killed in one blow, and red blood gurgled from their wounds, forming a terrifying pool of blood on the ground.

However.

What surprised Lan Qi the most was that next to the pile of corpses, there was a figure in a navy blue coat that looked particularly familiar to Lan Qi.

His head had been chopped off, and more than a dozen translucent magic cards flashing purple and pink appeared on his body.

The huge noise in the fight with the enemy just now was obviously caused by Landry's spell.

But he was dead so soon?

How strong are the enemies?

Lan Qi had already figured out the answer before he even thought about it.

At the other end of Car No. 4, a figure appeared in the smoke.

A woman, to be precise, standing over Landry's body.

She is tall and tall, and her black clothes outline her beautiful curves. Her long black hair flows down like a waterfall, making the white porcelain mask even more sinister and terrifying.

The masked woman's eyes were cold, her expression invisible, and the short blade in her hand was dripping with dark red blood.

The female killer looked at Lan Qi who ran out.

In other words, it was cubicle 404 where he was.

"Boss Cat, use black gas."

Lan Qi immediately directed Boss Cat.

Since he tied the original slate seal, the little sun that was originally used to block sight would be forced to have the obsidian effect of the God's Age of Glory due to the seal attribute, so he added some cheap low-level replacement cards to Boss Cat.

The entire carriage was suddenly covered in thick smoke, blocking the view.

If Lan Qi had to take action as a last resort, he couldn't let other passengers in the carriage see him take action.

The sudden appearance of a female killer on this train makes her identity and motives a mystery.

Lan Qi could not deduce the reason for the time being.

After all, there are a lot of inherent contradictions and conflicts in the Creation Empire. Due to the turmoil many years ago, some civilians and nobles hate each other, thus creating some extreme factions.

But now the only thing Lan Qi can be sure of is that the so-called dangerous element should refer to this female killer.

And his disguise is always perfect.

No matter which camp he is in, he cannot do nothing to save innocent people. There are old people and children in the car. They are unarmed civilians.

The best strategy at the moment is to continue to play the good Imperial role, resolve this turmoil, and then go to the capital Brilda safely.

"Teacher Landry should be a sixth-level legal profession. Although he is biased toward research personnel, the fact that he was killed so quickly by this female killer shows that she is quite strong and is a well-trained veteran."

Thalia said in Lanci's mind.

"Very good, that's not a big difference. Landry theoretically has a chance of winning."

Ranchi has decided on a strategy.

He wanted to fake the scene where Landry and the female killer died together - although she succeeded in killing the young teacher Landry, she also died of exhaustion due to the serious injuries Landry left on her.

At that time, Lan Qi can hide his merit and fame and continue to sneak into Brilda, the imperial capital of the Kraiju Empire.

In her thoughts, she saw that the female assassin had raised the short knife in her hand, and a cold killing intent hit her face. She obviously had no intention of letting go of the old man from the Empire who was in the same compartment as Landry.

There are no words.

The female killer took the lead in launching the offensive.

The short sword drew a sharp cold light in the air, and instantly struck Lan Qi's face.

Lan Qi, who was possessed by Talia, ducked sideways and perfectly avoided the fatal blow of the female killer.

"Lan Qi, be careful."

Thalia reminded.

This female killer is probably close to the seventh level. No wonder Landry lost his head so quickly.

When she was fighting black boxing in the Holy Silver Vine Arena, she had never seen such a strong sixth-level opponent except for Inoan.

In other words, it really takes such a professional assassin to have the courage to commit murder on the way to Brilda, the capital of Creja, to ensure nothing goes wrong.

The female killer also seemed quite surprised.

This old man, who didn't look like a warrior at all, was actually able to avoid her attack.

Lan Qi had no time to sigh, because the pursuit of the female killer had already followed.

Her next slash had already dragged a terrifying cold light, heading straight for Lan Qi's vitals.

Seeing that fighting hard was not an option, Lan Qi jumped back to distance herself, and a small wind whirlpool formed in front of her. It roared towards the female killer, stirring up dust and debris on the ground along the way, and briefly knocked her back.

Boss Cat's wind magic is obviously not enough to move past two levels to shake this fierce opponent.

But this is just to confuse the other party.

The next second, dozens of spiritual magic powers came one after another, turning into an airtight net and catching the female killer.

The female killer seemed to feel this strange magical power and had to face it head on.

This time she obviously misjudged the old man's strength.

She began to lose control of her body, as if all the nerves in her limbs were locked, she let out a painful roar and continued to struggle with strength.

The entire carriage was shaking violently, as if it would be torn apart by her huge force at any time.

Countless wreckage and debris were flying in the air, but she eventually calmed down, and when the smoke cleared, everything fell into an eerie silence.

The female killer was lying in the ruins.

This is the smallest magic that Thalia can use.

If seven or eight levels of magic were used to fight, it would be completely impossible to explain who was behind the attack, not to mention whether the other passengers would survive.

The female assassin lying on the ground struggled stubbornly for a while, and finally convinced that the old man was at least level seven and that she was no match for him, so she gave up her struggle.

Lan Qi approached her.

Before the smoke cleared, he still had to investigate the cause and effect from the female killer's side.

Landry can't die so unclearly.

He was very sorry for Landry's death, but he had no choice. When a master like Landry was around, he, Lan Qi, couldn't take the initiative, otherwise he would be seen as a naughty person and his identity would be exposed.

In the end, Landry will become a hero who sacrifices to protect the passengers. This is the only thing Lanqi can do for him.

Lan Qi was also curious about the reason for this turmoil.

But before he could ask any questions, the female killer had already spoken to him.

"Who are you..."

The female killer asked reluctantly.

She couldn't figure out who this old man was.

And why there are seventh-order existences.

"The imperial power is unparalleled and the empire has faith."

Lanci imitated Landry's voice and said coldly,

"Anyone who offends our Creation Empire will be punished no matter how far away they are."

Maybe there are other passengers in the compartment who are listening with trembling at the moment.

But he just wanted these passengers to hear it so they could be witnesses.

It turns out to be a fight between Lady Killer and Landry.

"So you are..."

The female killer seems to have understood.

The Magical Agents of the Creation Empire are also the most difficult eagle dogs in the Creation Empire. A man with such ability is probably among the top three in the Magical Agents.

"..."

Thalia couldn't help but admire Lanci's self-cultivation as an actor.

Can you really get the words right?

Sometimes he can really fool himself, and then make everyone confused, and others will never guess that he is actually a member of the Kingdom.

Lan Qi slowly squatted down in front of the female killer and activated the soundproof barrier.

"Ah."

The female killer just smiled and seemed to tell the other person with her eyes that no matter how she was captured and interrogated, she would not reveal a word.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I won't interrogate you."

Lan Qi said softly like a kindergarten teacher coaxing a child to take a nap.

"?"

The eyes of the female killer were frozen under the white porcelain mask.

"Show me your memory."

Lan Qi said softly, while mentally asking Thalia to use the smallest range of [Overflowing Tenderness].

"no, do not want!!!"

The female killer suddenly seemed to realize something. Her cold eyes that would not waver even in the face of torture were shaken, as if she had encountered something she was truly afraid of.

The other party is a master of spiritual magic, and he can capture her like this. And the other party may also have a deeper spiritual exploration magic. If it falls into his hands, she can't even commit suicide!

"I'm going to kill you, kill you!!!"

she shouted angrily.

The eyes under the white porcelain seemed to want to eat Lan Qi alive.

However, she couldn't resist the sleepiness that made her mind go blank. Tears gradually overflowed from the corners of her eyes and she fell asleep.

"Lan Qi, I always felt that you really looked like a senior officer of the empire just now, and the most dangerous kind."

Thalia couldn't help but said in Lan Qi's heart.

"How is it possible? I have only been in the empire for a few days, and I just happened to maintain public security due to the situation. I did not intend to help the empire."

Lanci declared.

He closed his eyes and gradually immersed himself in a brand new world. The space around him seemed to be rippled by unstable ripples.

Like [Falling Gentle Land], [Overflowing Gentle Land] can also interfere with other people's dreams.

At this moment, Lan Qi felt as if he was freed from the shackles of the physical body and directly communicating with the spiritual space.

When he opened his eyes again, it was a completely different scene from the dilapidated train carriage.

Under the clear sky, you can see a blue and bright color when you look up.

The spring sunshine makes people's skin feel warm, and the sound of water by the river is clear and melodious.

This is a beautiful town.

In this season, wearing casual clothes will make you feel the temperature is moderate and everything is just right.

Lanqi and Talia shared their minds and descended into the dreamland of the female killer together. Their bodies were translucent like spirits, watching from a distance.

The female killer in the dream was standing in a trance on the busy street of a small town. The only sounds that echoed in her ears were the laughter of children chasing and playing in the empty square, and the sound of hand bells clanging.

She had an attractive appearance, and she subconsciously caressed her face and arms in front of the reflection on the glass of the shop on the street, but she didn't even have any scars on her body.

A girl, whose appearance and hair color are somewhat similar to the female killer, seems to be her younger sister, who is healthy and walking with her on the street.

"Sister Unity..."

The girl held the corner of her clothes, as if she didn't understand why she stopped, and she seemed lost.

"..."

Unity gradually came back to her senses and stared at the healthy girl.

She immediately cried and hugged the girl.

He kept mumbling vague words such as "You must be safe and sound" and "Sister will never leave you again".

Then, with great relief, she was led by her sister and played around the town.

There is no cruel battlefield, and her dead comrades will meet her on the street and greet her.

And this landmark...

It can be vaguely identified through the text as the Kingdom of Canberra in the Western Hub.

Lanci and Thalia looked at each other in her dream.

"How could she dream about the Kingdom of Canberra?"

Thalia asked with a translucent figure.

"Obviously it means she is from the Kingdom."

Lan Qi answered naturally.

The two of them understood instantly.

This female killer is one of our own!

It turns out that the dangerous elements mentioned in the broadcast are indeed Allied spies.

Lan Qi also wondered how he could have been exposed.

Besides him, there were other Kingdom people on this train!

What the empire wants to catch is the Allied assassin named Unity.

Lanci and Talia hurriedly ran out of Unity's dream like two children who felt they were in trouble, returned their consciousness to reality, and began to wake her up with gain-type spiritual magic.

Without the intervention of the spell caster, Unity woke up quickly.

She looked at the old man in front of her who had not harmed her with some confusion in her hazy eyes.

However, she was still pinned to the ground by mind control.

"You damn imperial hawk!!"

Unity recalled the dream just now and instantly realized the other party's mental interference ability.

Using this kind of dream to peek into her brain has undoubtedly violated her bottom line as a warrior of the kingdom!

There was such a master hiding on the train, so she was wronged.

She didn't understand why she was trapped and who betrayed her.

But the mysterious man in front of her is definitely the culprit who laid the trap to hunt her!

She couldn't imagine how much information this man would forcibly steal from her if he continued to dig into her consciousness!

The more she thought about it, the more shame and despair she felt, but in the end it turned into resentment towards the imperial officer in front of her.

"..."

Lan Qi looked confused and innocent, pointing at himself, speechless and choked.

There is nothing wrong with his thinking, and he does not intend to help the empire.

"She didn't lie. She really thought you were from the Empire."

Thalia used her lie detection talent to add a sentence to remind Lan Qi.

Maybe she did misunderstand Lan Qi at first.

Other spies need great awareness to work hard and perfectly disguise themselves as Imperials, but you, my friend, are the chosen Imperials.
