On the afternoon of July 10th, Europe, Crown County.

The airport was very vigilant, with hundreds of knights under the Iron Law guarding the battle. The guns and cannons in their sleeves were filled with live ammunition, and ten powerful knights of the captain level and a flag-holding official were in charge. They were completely prepared to welcome the visits of members of the Counter-Cross Cross.

They should have arrived three days ago, but they were dragging it again and again. It was not until the last call yesterday that the consultant said that the plane they were on would land here at noon today.

As a result, it is already 1:30 p.m., there is not even a bird in the sky, and there is no sign of UFO entering the radars in various places.

Just as the flag-holder Suyside was about to report to the higher authorities that the other party had put another pigeon, someone saw a strange black shadow in the sky with his naked eyes.

But an antique biplane was slowly coming from the air. When approaching the runway, people found that there were no wheels under the plane. There was a lengthened and widened ski on the left and right bottom of the plane. The truss structure was like a rudderless sled. It was obviously impossible to land smoothly with the friction between these two boards and the ground. It was estimated that the plane would fall apart in less than five seconds after it landed.

Of course, the people on the plane understood this, so they had no intention of landing at all. When they flew over the airport, they directly chose to jump. Three figures jumped off the plane, and then they magically detonated the abandoned plane behind them, which showed that they actually installed explosives on the means of transportation they were riding in advance...

As the saying goes, the pure man never looks back at the explosion scene, and the three of them didn't see it because the explosion happened overhead and could not be seen through the parachute.

The parachute fell slowly, and the waiting people below had enough time to surround the three of them separately.

The consultant, gunsmith, and hidden water were captured like prisoners, but the other party did not handcuff them, but there were many guns aiming at their heads at close range.

The three were "invited" to three cars and drove to the headquarters of the Iron and Steel Commandments.

After arriving at the destination, they were taken to the dedicated room that received them - an interrogation room with net alloy walls on all sides. This was originally the government building of the Empire, so it was not surprising that there was such a room.

After locking them up, the inspector of the Holy Land of Iron Command, Agostino Lodovico, who resembles Santa Claus, and his secretary, Mr. Dasher, a fanatical admirer of Mexican culture, walked into the room next door, opened one wall, and exposed a reinforced glass that was bulletproof, explosion-proof, radiation-proof, and everything. Through this thing, they finally greeted the person they "cooperated" this time.

"Mr. Consultant." Lodovico said, looking at the three men opposite the glass.

The one on the left is the consultant. Lodovico had seen his videos and through several times, the real person looked very young, at most in his early twenties, and was born gracefully and fairly. At this moment, his shirt and pants, including his face and hair, were all dirty, as if he had rolled in a pile of soil.

The young man in the middle was a few years older than the consultant, and his expression seemed a little unhappy, and he was already sitting cross-legged on the ground. This man, Lodovico, also knew the gunsmith, who had been a weapon consultant for the Empire. A few years ago, he formed a bond with the "Blue Gift" plan and the steel commandment. In fact, it was just a clearance operation of the empire, but because the gunsmith experimented with his new invention of the "Blueberry Bomb" during the operation, the steel commandment suffered heavy losses, so the account was recorded on him.

The man on the right is the oldest, looking in his thirties, but he was a little young and had a bad beard. He was staring at the glass without saying a word. Like the other two, he was sloppy and embarrassed. Lodovico didn't recognize this person.

The consultant replied, "What's the point?"

"I have a few questions that you need to answer," said Lodovico.

"Can we talk in a different environment? For example, as agreed on the phone, we will have a big meal first, then we will each have a luxurious suite, take a hot shower, and then find a decent place to sit down and talk to you." The consultant replied.

"Mr. Consultant, do you understand your current situation?" Dasher said.

"We are in a situation that is 50% due to your unilateral hostility and untrustworthiness, and fifty% due to your ignorance," the consultant said.

Lodovico said: "Then, I want to ask, why do you believe that if you three outsiders intervene in the excavation work that we cannot complete, you will make some breakthrough?"

The consultant walked to the glass and pretended to roll his eyes, as if he was really thinking about something, "Let me think about it... First, remove the fraction of my IQ and divide it by two, so that I can think at the same level as you. And you actually pulled me and you guys to the same height as you, to guess the results we will produce when we do the same thing, and asked me this question in a rhetorical tone.

Secondly, if you have to ask for some reason, I can also tell you that the gunsmith has successfully explored and walked out of a more dangerous ruin than the one you are exploring.

As for that, Mr. John DeSotto, is a famous explorer. You can search for his name directly on the public network, and even find several books he published.

Finally, I would like to ask, why can you determine that other people can’t complete the work that you stupid guys cannot do?”

"You can speak eloquently, young man." Lodovico was not angry and said instead: "But even if your ability to do things is not a problem, what about your position? The invasion of the Apostle system by the Counter-Cross has had a huge impact on our organization's interests in Asia, causing unexpected losses, and... I don't know how to know what was excavated. Now you have taken the initiative to intervene and help us. Isn't it suspicious?"

"Ha!" the consultant sneered: "It's very suspicious, so I want to ask, with your wisdom, what is the worst case that can be imagined?"

Before Lodovico could answer, the consultant said, "Doessession within you? Assassinate important figures? Plunder the resources in the remains? Almost all three are there.

I have talked about why I came to help you in the communication before, and there is nothing to say about it. Until now, the initiative to answer or not is still in our hands. Because objectively, you need our help. If you want something in the ruins, you have to participate in the excavation work. It’s that simple.

You can assume that we want to sabotage within you, assassinate an important person, and attempt to plunder resources from the remains. But even so, the Iron Commandment still requires us.

Therefore, you can be wary of our every move at any time, anywhere, without any concealment, but you must offer us three like you do until your goal is achieved. After that, you can turn your back on your face. At that time, you can interrogate or threaten us like you are now, but doing so now has no meaning and will only waste each other's time.

Do you understand if I analyze this way?”

Luodovico thought for a long time, and indeed, the other party was valuable and had already made the words clear. What's the point of detaining them? Each of these three people is useful, and it is impossible to lock up only one to threaten the other two.

The most urgent task is to excavate the remains, rather than interrogating their intentions. Even if they are interrogated, it will be useless to ask. The other party has already admitted all three possible situations. What else is there to ask?

"Dashel."

"exist."

"Prepare and wash the three guests." After saying that, Lodovico said, he said to the consultant: "Young man, you are very arrogant. Maybe you have the capital to be arrogant, but you should not use this insulting tone to elders."

The consultant replied: "Respect is exchanged for hard work, not through inheritance or money, nor is it something you can get by relying on your seniority." His eyes were filled with contempt and disdain than before: "If you talk to me in such a tone of lessons, it would be a shame."

Lodovico was quite angry, but he still did not get angry. He snorted coldly, and left without saying anything.

When the other party left, the gunsmith looked up and said to the consultant: "If you ask him to say something, then what? He has done what you said, and he just wanted to find a way out. What if he was so angry that he was so angry that he ignored the excavation of the remains, and he really locked us up and served us in great orders, what should he do?"

"Only by being aggressive can we see the other party's ability and bottom line." The consultant replied indifferently: "Besides, since both of us cannot establish any trust, we don't have to give each other any face."

The gunsmith said: "If it is a deadlock, I'm afraid that except for the dark water, we both may be captured or even died."

"Don't worry about this at all." The consultant said: "Don't forget that we are standing under the banner of the Counter-Cross. I dare say that in today's world, no rebellious organization dares to fight us head-on, or takes the initiative to be enemies with us.

They don’t understand us, nor can they ignore or underestimate us. Other organizations, including empires, have the attitude towards the cross, just like you are worried about your own situation at the moment, and they don’t know what consequences will be if you get angry with us. It may be nothing serious or a catastrophe.”

"The strength is unknown, the purpose is unknown, the members are unknown... The only thing that appears before the world is that prison escape incident and the rumors of killing the Heavenly Guard." The gunsmith continued: "Sure enough, powerful and unpredictable are the most effective deterrent, right?"

The consultant replied: "It's right, so no matter what we do, as long as it is not a suicide, at least it is safe. People with the Iron Precepts will also think about what can happen if we kill us."

"Maybe there is no response, or it may release biological weapons or something... Haha, put yourself in your shoes, I don't know how to deal with people who are against the cross." The gun smith said: "It's such an organization that suits you, an agnostic."

They chatted for five minutes, and someone opened the door of the cell, and a knight said to them with a expressionless face: "Please come with me."
