The arms business
Without Kronos's intervention, things didn't develop too much.
Leonard relied on a little trace of Silk to connect Gehrman, Charlotte, and Klein.
He also returned to Tingen, dug Klein's grave, and finally determined the truth that Klein was not dead.
But there is one difference, that is, one person did not die like in the original work. This person is Dunn Smith Captain.
With the help of Kronos, Dunn did not die in the chaos of Son of the True Creator, but instead inspired Dunn's fighting spirit.
Dunn Beyonder Characteristic, who had been silently accommodating the dead team members, was just because he couldn't bear the passing of the team members.
Therefore, although Nightmare has always been Sequence 7, his strength can rival Sequence 6.
Although this approach improved his strength, it also had a huge drawback, that is, it was difficult to continue to advance.
The death of Klein inspired Dunn to work hard.
After the chaos at that time was over, Dunn stayed in Tingen for a period of time. After explaining Tingen Nighthawks's affairs, he began to work hard to digest his own Beyonder Characteristic.
There were too many Beyonder Characteristic in the body, so it greatly slowed down the promotion speed of Dunn, which cost a lot of energy. In the end, it was just promoted to Sequence 6.
He has made some progress in terms of his own strength, but is not that ideal, but his love life has made great progress.
Amid the chaos, Dunn Smith's physical condition took a period of recovery before he fully recovered.
During this period of time, Dai Li·Simone Lady has been by his side.
Both of them had low self-esteem, so they never chose to face this relationship directly.
But after having such an experience of almost losing each other, the knot between the two people gradually opened up.
In the end, Miss Daly took the initiative to confess his love to Captain Dunn, and the two got together as expected.
After Dunn was promoted to Sequence 6, I originally wanted to apply to enter Red Gloves.
However, after a series of assessments, the headquarters believed that Dunn's potential had been basically exhausted and it would be very difficult to go further, so his application was not approved.
Red Gloves was originally the most elite among Nighthawks, and more of them were geniuses from all over the country, preparing to train towards Executives, but the age of Dunn was a little different from the actual situation.
Even so, Dunn·Smith did not continue to stay at Tingen, but was transferred to Nighthawks of Diocese in the cold winter, and Daly naturally accompanied him.
As a genius who was noticed by Cathedral, she should have been transferred to Backlund Diocese to get the best training.
But Diocese in the cold winter was not bad either, because it was closer to Cathedral, so Executives did not interfere with his decision.
After Leonard determined the truth about Klein's death, Tingen directly sent a letter to Miss Daly.
As Death Pathway's Spirit Guide, Daly has its own Messenger, so it is more convenient to contact them.
After all, Leonard doesn't want to go all the way to Winter County again.
After getting Message, who was Klein alive, Dunn Smith was overjoyed.
As a person who values emotions, the death of Klein has always been a knot in his heart.
A Captain, due to lack of strength, finally let a young newcomer die for him, which even became a hurdle in Dunn's heart.
Due to his responsibilities, Dunn Smith cannot leave Winter County and cannot go to Backlund in person.
So in his reply, he went into quite a long length and told Leonard that Klein must be found.
In fact, the relationship between Leonard and Klein can only be regarded as average. After all, the two have only worked together for a short time, so it is difficult for them to develop a deep friendship.
But because of Klein's death, Leonard's feelings for him have completely sublimated.
Therefore, Leonard also wants to find Klein.
It would be great if the three of them could unite and seek revenge on Ince Zange Will.
For this idea, Ince·Zange Will can only give him a thumbs up.
Dunn Smith is not dead, Leonard is almost unscathed, and Klein is also alive.
During Tingen City, they were three against one, and the one who was right was Son of the True Creator.
Now I want to go three to one, Ince·Zange Will.
With this thought in mind, Leonard quickly headed towards Backlund, just to find the trace of Klein as soon as possible.
The movements of Church of Evernight and Leonard have nothing to do with Kronos for the time being. He is studying his own affairs in Saint Hilleran Cathedral.
I originally wanted to isolate myself from all the chores from the outside world, but in the end, chores still came to my door.
Parliament's election change is over, New Party has won the biggest victory, and it's time to cash in this victory.
Whether it is New Party itself or Member of Parliament of New Party, they all need more funds, so naturally they have to start their own business.
The one who came to Saint Hilleran Cathedral looking for Kronos was naturally Laurien.
The current Laurien can be said to be very high-spirited. From the inconspicuous Factory master in Backlund, he has transformed into the representative of Factory master in New Party.
Most Factory owners are not short of money, but if they want to win over more New Party Member of Parliament, they must have a channel to make money.
So Laurien tried his best to seek advice from the previous Member of Parliament, and finally found out most of the channels through which Member of Parliament made money - "smuggling arms".
New Party still has a certain influence on the Army, so it is possible to get some new equipment that has been "eliminated".
These equipment are transported to the Northern Continent through a certain method and sold to local armed forces, and a large amount of money can be obtained, which can not only fill New Party Member of Parliament's pockets, but also provide New Party's activities.
This kind of smuggling is not done by the entire New Party together, but by those Member of Parliament who take the lead to make profits for their respective small groups, and finally hand over a certain amount of "protection fee" to New Party.
For example, Councilman Macht belongs to a small group, so after connecting several forces, he pulled Klein together to engage in arms smuggling.
In the original work, the person who came to contact Klein was Army Colonel Galvin. He is currently working at Loen Ministry of Defense, and his specific position is unknown.
But behind the transaction, it is very likely that Amyrius, who has just taken over Ministry of Defense, and even Qonas Kilgor of MI9, are also involved.
But now, it's hard to say what this Trading Gathering will look like.
Because Amyrius has been staying with Bayam until now. Since Amyrius has completely become honest, it seems that Twilight Hermit Order's people have no more thoughts against him.
Now that Amyrius has recognized his identity, why bother changing him?
And Qonas Kilgor is even more impossible, because he is still staying in Dark Angel's Wings of Kronos.
But Kronos is not worried that the transaction will not proceed.
Without these two people, New Party would be unable to carry out smuggling, and New Party would also have to fail.
The path Laurien is looking for is indeed different from the path Councilman Macht is looking for.
He contacted Army of East Chester County through the one he consulted, Member of Parliament, and obtained a batch of "obsolete" arms, which could be shipped to the Southern Continent for sale.
East Chester County is the fiefdom of the Earl Hall. You must know that the title of the Earl Hall is Earl of East Chester.
So there must be help from the Earl Hall in this business.
In the previous New Party, the Factory owners had virtually no say, so it was good if they had the chance to take a sip of soup.
Things are different now. With the support of Church of Steam and Machinery, the group owned by Factory has more say.
Naturally, we can no longer cling to other groups and drink soup like we did before.
So this path is equivalent to being given by the Earl Hall to the Factory main group.
Earl Hall still knows how to win over and balance.
After Laurien obtained this access, he began to plan how to smuggle it.
The source of the arms has been solved, and all that remains is transportation and sales.
As a businessman, sales are really not a big deal in Laurien's heart.
Although there is no way to contact those big forces, there are still ways to find small tribes and resistance forces, so the most important thing is transportation.
Sea routes have been opened up, but shipping resources is not that easy.
As I said before, shipping companies are basically controlled by powerful people, so it is not easy for Laurien to cooperate with them.
Even if the cooperation is successful in the end, the majority of the profits will not fall into the hands of Laurien.
That's why Laurien found Saint Hilleran Cathedral today and wanted to ask for Church of Steam and Machinery's help.
Kronos was also very surprised when he first learned about this.
"Laurien How did you know we had a ship at sea?"
Although Church of Steam and Machinery's Fleet was attacked by Dawn of Elements, not all of them were destroyed, and there were still some that slipped through the net.
Nosk carefully collected all those who had slipped through the net, and barely managed to put together a Fleet, which could be regarded as carrying out the missionary mission.
Under the full pressure of Church of Steam and Machinery, Dawn of Elements also moved his eyes away from these small fish and shrimps, so this Fleet was finally stored.
With this Fleet, Kronos, if you want to help Laurien smuggle arms, it will be absolutely easy.
But Old Fan said, "Laurien probably doesn't know about this. He just wants us to help him find a ship that can carry out transportation."
Old Fan can help Kronos execute it, but it cannot help make decisions, so this matter still has to be decided by Kronos.
Kronos thought for a moment, and then said to Old Fan, "Did he reveal how big the batch of arms was?"
Old Fan said, "No, but he said that just one boat is enough."
Kronos said, "Since the quantity is not very large, it would be better to let Nosk and the others handle this batch of arms themselves."
Although Nosk and the others are not out to be Pirate, they still need to deal with many dangerous situations, so the demand for weapons is still not small.
If only one ship is needed to transport it, the quantity of this batch of arms is obviously not very large. With Church of Steam and Machinery's wealth, it is not a big deal to directly collect this batch of arms.
Old Fan did not expect Kronos to come up with such an idea, but after thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is indeed a feasible idea and it also avoids the cost of transportation.
There is another more important reason why Kronos thinks so.
Southern Continent is about to get into chaos.
If there are no problems with Councilman Macht's arms business, Klein will go to the Southern Continent.
What followed was Amanises's plan for Death God's power.
Although Numinous Episcopate may not know about this, it is quite possible that some turmoil will occur.
Numinous Episcopate has never supported the more powerful resistance forces, but has been based on local tribes.
Because Numinous Episcopate has always been developed under the name of Death God, it has greater influence among the aborigines of Balam.
So if Laurien targets these local tribes, the possibility of making an impression is really too great.
At worst, all the arms and ammunition are lost; at worst, none of the people sent can come back.
It's not that you can't smuggle arms, but you should try to avoid this troubled time.
After Old Fan received feedback from Kronos, he directly contacted Laurien.
He did not say that Church of Steam and Machinery directly accepted this batch of arms, but said that he would introduce this batch of arms to a person, and this person would be responsible for the transportation and sales.
For this answer, Laurien was also overjoyed.
As long as there is no problem with the price, it can save a few processes, which is a great thing for Laurien.
As for Church of Steam and Machinery's approach, Laurien takes it for granted that the church also wants to get a share of profits from it.
After the shipment arrives at the Southern Continent, that person will naturally decide what price to set, and the profits will naturally belong to that person.
Old Fan is also a person with rich experience, so he naturally understands Laurien's thoughts.
But he didn't bother to explain, there was no need to waste his time, mainly because even if he said Laurien, he might not believe it.
No matter what, the deal is done.
Old Fan gave Laurien a satisfactory price and accepted the batch of arms.
With this money, Laurien can reasonably win over more Member of Parliament, which can also be regarded as a disguised strengthening of Church of Steam and Machinery's voice in New Party.
So the money is not a loss, not to mention the price is not high.
As for this batch of arms, it was naturally delivered by Old Fan himself.
Of course, we are not looking at the identity of Horamick Archbishop, but Mr. Mechanical Puppet Jacques of Horamick Archbishop.
This Puppet itself has the capabilities of Spirit World Traversal, so it can be said to be perfect for transporting these arms.
For this reason, Nosk is also very grateful to his teacher.
Due to the influence of Dawn of Elements, it is difficult for them to buy weapons at sea, so guns and Cannonball cannot be replenished, which is a timely help.
