Chapter 189: Chapter 185: Mooer
Yila, holding Sara, stared at the distant figure of Tangmo. All the recent events made her suspicious of these people, not just Tangmo, but also the half-elf who once saved her.
On the airship, she had been investigated by the captain, and the boarding list of the Valan airboat provided by the captain did not include the names of Luo’er or Moumou. Perhaps they used pseudonyms, or maybe those names were not their real names. They were so cautious that even their names were fake, what exactly were they trying to do in Helros?
With these thoughts in mind, Yila, carrying Sara, arrived at the Helros air force base, for today was the day she was to meet her husband.
Yila’s husband, Mooer, was the Air Force Commander of Helros. His identity was complicated, being the second son of the current king of Ronisca and also a prince of Ronisca. Because of his proficiency in commanding and leading the air force, he was awarded the position of Air Force Commander by the king.
Forty years ago, he had already assumed the position of commander of the air force, although back then the position was not called Commander. He had experienced two Otherworldly Wars, and had personally witnessed the powerful military technology of Earthlings. Despite the fact that they were beaten black and blue in the Otherworld by the Allied Army, this did not change Mooer’s opinion of them.
After the Otherworldly War ended, Mooer recognized that the Earth’s military was the future direction of Ronisca’s Air Force, so he recommended that the king establish a cooperation agreement with the Earth nations and safely returned their captured Earth soldiers.
Mooer’s goodwill was affirmed by the Earth, and soon after, they established a close relationship with the two strongest nations on Earth. Over thirty years, they acquired a lot of Earth’s military technology through these two nations, allowing their airships to upgrade every ten years. By now, the third generation airships, High-peak Class, had become the main battle airships of the Ronisca air fleet.
But now Mooer’s mood was very bad, a guard had just brought him some unfortunate news. Their air force base and shipyard had been secretly infiltrated last night, a large hole was cut in the wire fence, and a shipyard worker was rendered unconscious, and had not yet awakened.
The prosperity and strength of Ronisca seemed to be just an illusion, as the country was currently facing both internal and external troubles. The investigation report of the Valan airboat had come out, it was clear that the Zhuyan people had impersonated Copperbeard people to hijack the airboat, intending to transport it to Baales. But for some unknown reason, a conflict broke out; during the conflict, the anti-gravity engine of the airboat was damaged, leading to a crash.
The crash of the Valan airboat undoubtedly cast a shadow over Ronisca’s aviation industry. Most importantly, the fact that the Zhuyan people impersonated Copperbeard people caused distrust among the High-peak people towards the Copperbeard people. This mistrust had already affected their cooperation in the export and import of Magic Crystals.
However, this was not the only difficulty. While Mooer had always been a firm supporter of Earth cooperation, Mu Lansi, being the crown prince, had other thoughts. He was very dissatisfied with being dictated by the Earth and suggested that the king ignore Earth’s demands and gradually break away from their control.
Guided by this ideology, Ronisca began to hide their military status from Earth and secretly exported eighteen cannons to Masya, thus taking the first step towards becoming an arms-exporting country.
However, they overestimated the intelligence of Masya’s leaders. These guys complained that Ronisca’s cannonballs were too expensive, so they went to Yazhi City to ask Earth to provide them with cannonballs. They received the news from the Blaiqi people in Yazhi City. Because of this, the Earth countries had been arguing since early last year right until the end.
After their unsuccessful attempt to purchase cannonballs, the Masyans had no choice but to swallow their pride and continue to do business with Ronisca, requesting them to provide cannonball support. However, last winter, the frontline army corps of Masya erupted in internal conflicts between the Masya army and the Odelanqi army. The eighteen cannons were also destroyed and seized in the conflict by the rebel army that had turned against them.
Mooer felt that the current top-ranking officials of Ronisca were playing with fire. Once Earth found out that they were providing cannons to Masya, he really didn’t know how he would explain it to Earth.
And the top-ranking officials of Ronisca didn’t care about this problem at the moment. They argued over whether they should continue to provide cannons to Masya, as well as whether they should provide ammunition to the rebels who had seized the cannons.
Mooer knew that continued involvement in the Masyan conflict would undoubtedly raise alarm in the Earth nations. He wasn’t a fool, he knew who was supporting the Masyan rebels behind the scenes. A month ago, he received a report from the Chief of the Urban Mobility Corps stating that Caucasian people had appeared in Helros city. These people came from a military alliance on Earth called NATO. It is Earth’s most powerful military alliance, and it is in a hostile relationship with Ronisca’s partners.
Mooer speculated that the Earth’s NATO side must have learned of Ronisca’s interference in Masya’s civil war, hence their decision to dispatch reconnaissance troops to secretly infiltrate Helros to collect intelligence. He felt helpless about the appearance of these people, and didn’t know how these Earthlings could survive in a place like Helros. Therefore, he could only order the Chief of the Urban Mobility Corps to thoroughly investigate these people’s whereabouts.
"My dear," Yila, carrying Sara, quietly entered Mooer’s office. He was sitting at his desk, deep in thought.
Mooer, known in Helros as the most handsome man, stood a full 1.4 meters tall with a dense beard. Hearing his wife’s voice, he stopped thinking and managed to put on a small smile.
"Father!" Yila set little Sara on the ground, who immediately opened her arms and threw herself into her father’s embrace.
"Sara!" Mooer held her daughter tightly, and seeing her innocent and lively smile, he felt a lot of his worries lighten.
"Father, why aren’t you smiling?" Sara asked innocently, her little hand pulling on Mooer’s beards.
"Father is working, honey." Mooer said, sighing lightly. As Air Force Commander, his job was always busy. Many times, only the mother and daughter were at home, so he often felt guilty about a lot of things to Yila.
"Dear, since Sara is here, why don’t you spend some time with her? Take a break," Yila suggested, a smile spreading across her face as she watched the tender scene between the father and daughter.
"I’m truly sorry, I haven’t been able to come home," Mooer apologized to her.
"It’s fine, I know you’re busy. The air force has a lot of things that require your attention." Yila shook her head, generously said.
She slowly came up, saw a few documents placed on the office desk, and could read the Dwarvish text. She couldn’t help having a few more looks, suddenly let out an exclamation.
"What’s wrong?" Mooer asked.
"Are there strange people roaming around in the city?" What Yila saw was from the urban defense mobility brigade’s report.
"Oh, probably those white people!" Mooer nodded, about his young wife, he didn’t have many secrets.
"White people?" Yila was very unfamiliar with this term.
"During the Prophetic War, those strange people your village encountered were the white people!" Mooer said.
He was referring to the multinational forces led by NATO, who fought with the Otherworld Allied Army in the village where Yila lives, and were ultimately crushed by the High-peak people’s fleet.
During that war, Mooer was the commander. He was of the Dwarf Race, so his lifespan was almost like the Elves. When serving as the commander of the Ronisca air force, he was already over 120 years old, but in the Dwarves’ view, he was just a robust young man who had just come of age.
"What are they doing coming to Helros?" Yila couldn’t help shivering at the mention of those foreign military forces from that year.
"I don’t know, but be careful when you and Sara are in the city. Don’t think it’s safe during the day. If it comes to it, I’ll pull a few people from the urban defense mobility brigade to protect you two." Mooer said earnestly.
"It’s okay, we’ll try to stay indoors during this time." Yila appreciated her husband’s concern. She continued to look at the next report and was stunned.
"Has the investigation report of the Valan airboat come out?" Yila couldn’t help but ask.
"Yes," Mooer nodded and answered, "The Zhuyan People impersonating the Copperbeard people tried to hijack the airboat but for some reason, the airboat engine was damaged."
"Luo’er..." Yila couldn’t help but mutter this name.
"What?" Mooer asked.
"Luo’er, the half-elf, he fought with those Zhuyan People, and then he jumped off the airboat with us." Yila replied.
"Yila, the information from the aviation department shows that there was no half-elf of Wood Elf mixed blood among the passengers on board. Did you see it wrong?" Mooer said.
"No, he is indeed a Wood Elf of mixed blood." Yila said solemnly, suddenly, she seemed to remember something, and excitedly said, "Just now, just now, Sara saw him!"
"Sara?" Mooer was stunned, then turned to ask Sara in his arms, "Sara, can you describe to your father what Brother Luo’er looks like?"
"Oh oh," Sara nodded, then said, "I just saw Brother Luo’er, he was with Sister Moumou."
"Sara, what does Brother Luo’er look like?" Mooer asked helplessly.
"Brother Luo’er has golden hair, and his ears are exceptionally large!" Sara said innocently.
"Sara, Brother Luo’er’s hair is black!" Yila reminded her from the side.
"No, Brother Luo’er’s hair was always golden just now!" Sara rebutted loudly.
"What, you said black hair?" Mooer almost jumped up in excitement hearing the conversation between mother and daughter.
