Beautiful Another World Red Tide

"Your central army and rear army fled at the very beginning of the battle. They didn't care about your life and death at all, so they ran away directly to save their lives. Now your military town has been occupied by us, comrades of the Southwest Army Ladies and gentlemen, the footsteps of the revolution must move forward, and the southwest must be liberated. Instead of letting your family members continue to be cattle and horses for the devils, and your life and sacrifice are just random tool numbers in the eyes of the devils, it is better to work together Join the revolution, liberate Quanyong Dalim, and rebuild a new tomorrow." Comrade Pene said sincerely.

"Battalion Commander, the flag of the Revolutionary Army is flying in the military town." A soldier reminded.

"Ah! It's not that we were unfavorable in the battle and planned to surrender. It's that the officers were out of mind and abandoned us." The battalion commander reluctantly retracted his saber into the scabbard, and asked his adjutant to give him a facelift to maintain the last trace In front of the soldiers of the two armies, Dignity strode up and walked down the short slope, first reaching out to shake hands with Comrade Peigne.

"First Army of the Southwest Army, Commander Dobin of the Fifth Battalion of the Dongzhen Garrison Corps requests surrender." Battalion Commander Dobin lowered his head and said helplessly.

"As long as they are separated from the reactionary enemy, they are our potential comrades. Believe me, Battalion Commander Dobbin, you will understand why our revolutionary army wants to liberate the Southwest." Comrade Peigne held Dobbin warmly. The battalion commander's hand comforted him.

The Southwest Army behind them also seemed to have been sucked out of their souls. They fell down one by one and took a rest panting heavily.The surrender of the last resistance force means that this intensive raid has finally come to an end.Now, the large forces of the revolutionary army will move westward to attack other fortresses and walled cities, leaving more than 3000 soldiers guarding Dongfang Town to prepare for the next step.The fall of Dongfang Town meant that the originally impenetrable plateau defense line was in a precarious situation. At the same time, the front line of the Golden Mountain was also greatly affected. Sir Manfield, the war commander of the Golden Mountain, also had to adjust his garrison. Nearly [-] people went to stabilize the boundary between the two defense lines and expand their defense range, falling into the predicament of too large a front line.

The matter has been spread to the ears of Grand Duke Nicholas. The Grand Duke, who once conquered the Southwest, sent out an unprecedented anger. He once again dispatched [-] troops to the plateau generation, and ordered Sir James to take back Dongfang Town. If Dongfang Town If you can't get it back, just ask him.The battle on the plateau did not stop temporarily because of the victory. On the contrary, it should not be too late. The battle on the plateau is going on rapidly, and both sides are making preparations to completely defeat each other.

Even worse news came at this time. On the Taige Mountains in the middle of the plateau, the news of the defeat of the bandits spread to the rear and the front, making the situation even more complicated.

338 Failed to Suppress Bandits

"Have you read the news from the rear and Dongfang Town?"

"Look, the general is really good at predicting things, and he has planned everything."

"We can't talk about predicting things like a god. If we really predict things like a god, we have already defeated the revolutionary army at this time, and it's their turn to occupy Dongfang Town."

General Derek and several of his trusted officers walked into their barracks with their military caps on their faces, laughing and talking. It had just snowed outside, and they had just come back after observing the surrounding terrain.The cold weather did not dampen General Derek's interest. At this time, like several trusted officers, he was full of energy and joy, and looked at all developments with an extremely optimistic mood.

Just one day ago, the anger of Grand Duke Nicholas finally reached the front line, splashing on Sir James' face like a storm.In the letter, Grand Duke Nicholas scolded Sir James as a waste, and was easily taken advantage of by the revolutionary army, which directly led to the fall of the important town of Dongfang Town.The Grand Duke ordered Sir James to pay for his crimes. If the revolutionary army could not be driven out of the southwest and then occupied the strong mountain city in the south-central, then there was no need for them to attack the 'capital' in the central south-west.

The [-] army is still on the way, and has already moved from the central part of the southwest to the plateau front.Under the order of Grand Duke Nicholas, Sir James lost the right to be the first commander and became the commander in name. The actual right to deploy troops has been handed over to General Derek.

"General, the expression on Sir James's face must be extremely embarrassing. If you ask me, the Grand Duke should dismiss him and take him back for interrogation. This guy is probably suspected of collaborating with the enemy. If he hadn't suddenly decided to adjust the garrison, how could this big incident happen?" Defeat?" A trusted officer suggested with clenched fists.

"Hmph, this is a lesson for him. If I had written more violently in the letter, you probably would have seen that guy beheaded on the guillotine a day ago." General Derek said proudly.

That's right, Grand Duke Nicholas' anger this time was due to the defeat in the war, as well as the letter sent by General Derek more than ten days ago.In the secret letter, General Derek tried his best to belittle his abilities, criticizing all kinds of decisions made by Sir James.And all possible defeats in the war were attributed to Sir James.When the letter was delivered, everything was fine on the front line, and Grand Duke Nicholas even chatted with his cronies that Derek was talking nonsense, he was simply framing, and he didn't believe it at all.

But when the failure of the front line spread to the rear, this letter, which the Grand Duke had once sniffed at, was once again used as the target of the Grand Duke's anger.The Grand Duke told the people around him that General Derek had told me that Sir James had no wisdom and would inevitably lead to defeat, but Sir James assured me that he would definitely defeat the Revolutionary Army.It was because of this situation that I never knew what was going on on the front line. I was blinded by James.

All the responsibilities were put on Sir James's head, and his cronies and subordinates must forget even if they didn't want to.They must forget that in the battle report sent back by Sir James a month ago, they solemnly demanded to defend with all their strength and never attack rashly.This plan was decided by the Grand Duke, but since the Grand Duke has already used this new letter to blame Sir James, the others can only pretend to know nothing and criticize Sir James' wrong strategy together.

General Derek has also become the real commander-in-chief of the front line. Grand Duke Nicholas has re-supported his offensive plan, supported him to recapture Dongfang Town while defending, and then took the initiative to attack Zhongnan.Now, General Derek has returned to the barracks, intending to take a break before going back to preside over the meeting.

"General, in my opinion, we will be inseparable from wars in the Southwest in the future. At that time, we will counterattack the Central South. At that time, we will still be subject to them? At that time, they will be begging us?" A trusted officer said with a smile and flattery arrive.

"You can't talk nonsense, it's not good for others to hear you." General Derek went to the headquarters of the barracks with a smile after a short break. When they opened the door, they saw that the room was full of officers, including Including Sir James, almost all the officers who have not yet been on the front line are here.The atmosphere in the room was extremely gloomy, and all the officers looked serious.This is normal, after all, their immediate boss has been emptied, and who dares to laugh.

"I went to make a round of inspections, but I'm late." General Derek saluted the other officers and then led them to sit in the front row and said to everyone.

This seat used to be occupied by Sir James, but now, this position has been replaced by General Derek.Although Sir James was still upset, he was frightened by the majesty of the Grand Duke, so he did not make any sense and accepted the fact that the status had been reversed.

"Hello, General." Several officers from other factions saluted politely. General Derek had no conflict of interest with them, and he had a bright future. It was normal for them to maintain respect.

The officers of Sir James' faction or other big factions were not so polite, either saluted crookedly, or simply sat and closed their eyes and pretended not to see.General Derek ignored the various actions of these people, looked sideways to the side with a blank expression, even the serious Sir James, Sir James did not show any expression of like or dislike, but just looked at everyone with a serious face, not knowing what was going on in his heart .

"Tomorrow, our army will start preparing to retake Dongfang Town. The army will be divided into two directions to fight the revolutionary army. One will be the main battle in Tiger City, and the other will be the feint attack of Dongfang Town." General Derek put his hands on the table Ordered to the officers.

"The next step is to start combat deployment..." General Derek knocked on the table and said after thinking for a moment.

"General." An officer stood up first and saluted.

"Our department is under orders and cannot fight."

"General, our department is the same." Another officer also stood up and said in salute.

"General, my department also..."

"My department..."

Several officers stood up and saluted to shirk their missions. General Derek frowned at this scene. He didn't expect these officers to dare to disobey orders so much. Could it be that these people don't really respect the Grand Duke that much?That's strange, if you don't have that much respect for the Grand Duke, then why do these officers look so scared to death?

"General Derek, don't take offense, they all really have missions." Sir James said with a smug smile.

"Oh? What task is so important that even a decisive battle can be ignored?" General Derek asked calmly.

"Look at this," said Sir James, taking a letter from his bosom.

"Sir Jazz is not good at suppressing bandits. Now his 3000 troops have lost more than [-], and he is already in a state of desperation." Sir James explained leisurely.

"The 3000 troops led by Sir Nicholas went to the Tiger Mountains to suppress the bandits. I really didn't expect that the bandits were too cunning. They were in a dark mood with the local farmers, which made it difficult for the troops to fight. Every time they were preparing for a temporary rest, It was disrupted by the enemy's sporadic attacks. When preparing for a large-scale suppression of bandits, these peasant bandits broke up and fled everywhere, and there was no way to bring them to justice." An officer with a beard laughed. explained.

"A one-third loss is really not a small amount." General Derek's face became more gloomy the more he read the letter, and finally he could only put down the letter and agreed with a frown.

"Yes, therefore, we still need to send out a force to support Lord Sir. My plan is to allocate 5000 people to support Sir Sir. General Derek, what do you think?" Sir James touched his baby Beard also asked with a sly smile.

"5000 people, isn't that a bit much?" General Derek asked hesitantly.

"You can't hesitate. My lord is at stake. We must send soldiers to support us. In addition, the Taige Mountain Range is also an important road. If we don't control it and let the bandits grow stronger, our logistics will be in danger."

"Five thousand, that's a good number." General Derek sighed helplessly. 5000 people were exactly the number of offensive troops that were planned. If 5000 people were really sent, then General Derek could only Defense, and taking Dongfang Town as much as possible, but it is absolutely impossible to push back the revolutionary army.

......

"The sun in the west is about to set (liao), and the end of the devil is coming (liao)."

A warrior in ragged clothes sat on the peak and watched the slowly setting sun, and couldn't help singing.In winter, the big trees all over the mountains and plains have only dry branches, filling a scene of sadness.If the literati of Yongdalim arrive here, they must recite a poem, condense their depressed mood at this time, and write a sad poem.

But that's what literati did. For the eternally optimistic revolutionary fighters, this scene of withered trees is just right for a red sun.The enemy has been encircling and suppressing the revolutionary army for five months without defeating it. Now the soldiers are extremely excited, and they still look at the future war with the belief that they will win. The happiest moment.

"It's like that steel knife, piercing the enemy's chest, and beating the (emperor) devils to death!" On another mountain, another revolutionary soldier in a tattered military uniform sang loudly, as if echoing .

"We are sharpshooters. Every bullet kills an enemy. We are all flying troops, even if the mountains are high and the water is deep?" Another revolutionary soldier sang on another hill.

"I really want to recite a poem. There are many good poems in Sun Boyang's hometown, but unfortunately, I haven't studied them." Comrade Sumarokov stood on the mountain, looking at the winter scene, he couldn't help but stroked his beard Said.

"I'm coming!" A goblin in leather armor poked his head out from the side and shouted.

"Since ancient times, autumn has been sad and lonely. I say autumn is better than spring tide." Goblin said shaking his head.

"When a crane floats above the clouds in a clear sky, it brings poetry to the blue sky!"

339 The Millennium

"Before I knew it, I've been in this old forest for half a year. When I came here, it was still a green leaf, and in a flash it looked like everything was withered." Sumarokov took off his gray-white cloak and looked at everything in front of him. Exclaimed.

The Taige Mountains are continuous, occupying almost one-third of the entire plateau, straddling the center of the plateau, blocking the main road from the southwestern interior to the outside.It is such an important place that has not been valued by the officials in the southwest. In their eyes, although the Taige Mountains are important, but the mountains are full of miasma, it is impossible for the enemy to fight here for a long time.At that time, they only need to encircle the Taige Mountains to search, and the enemy will inevitably surrender.

This view was not broken until half a year ago. Half a year ago, Sumarokov and others, who were forced by the Army of the Braves to fail to join the Central South, had to find another way and cross the plateau to reach this mountain range under the guidance of the silver dragon.Grand Duke Nicholas was shocked at the time, and quickly sent two thousand soldiers to wipe out the peasant bandits.

But after a few months, not only did this group of peasant bandits not be eradicated, but they colluded with local peasant hunters and hid everywhere under the guidance of the locals. Once the army decided to encircle and suppress, they would go into hiding. They came out and dealt a heavy blow to the army. After going on and on like this, the original 2000-strong army was reduced by nearly one-third, and it lost the ability to continue searching mountains.

When the war in the Southwest became urgent, Grand Duke Nicholas had no choice but to think about exterminating this group of peasant bandits.He also asked his son to lead 3000 people to join the local army to suppress the bandits, and sent two high-level magicians to assist him, vowing to wipe out the peasant bandits with less than 400 people.But unfortunately, he still miscalculated. Not only was there a big problem in the frontline battle, but the bandits were also retreating steadily.

"The days are getting colder every day, and the enemy will definitely try their best to search the mountain again." Comrade Kexi walked up with a dead log and said.

"How is our comrade doing now?" Sumarokov sat on the ground and asked while taking out the kettle and unscrewing it.

"After half a year of recovery, our local residents in the Taige Mountains have developed a lot of comrades. Now our revolutionary team has more than 700 people, which is considered a big camp. If you round it up, it is two battalions. There is a shortage of muskets. , Many new comrades who enlisted in the army were not given muskets, so they could only use their broadswords and short bows to fight the devils."

Comrade Kexi pulled off his blue scarf, folded it with great care, and stuffed it into his arms, saying that this blue scarf was a birthday present given to him by Mr. Sun Boyang, and he has always cherished it, even though it was so difficult in Mount Taige In those days, he always cherished this scarf to prevent him from getting any dirt.

"The musket problem will be solved. If we can't make muskets, we will build earthen guns. The enemy will always be defeated by us when they search the mountains again and again. When the time comes, the muskets they left behind will be left to our new comrades. It's gone." Sumarokov dipped his hands in a little water and said with a smile.

"That's right, every time we fight against encirclement and suppression, those guys can leave behind a lot of muskets, the most they left behind more than a dozen of them! That time was thanks to me!" A goblin in leather armor stood beside him. He came out and shouted proudly.

"You goblin, take credit for yourself again." Kexi laughed and picked up a small clod from the ground and threw it over.

"I don't have credit, but I have to work hard, okay? Back then, I risked my life to go up the mountain to help everyone find a way out. I also taught everyone how to make clay guns and smelt gunpowder. I am an indispensable member of our Tiger Mountain base!" Brother Unconvinced, Brin asked back in Yondarim with a strange accent while gesturing.

"You guy, you'd better learn the Yongdarim language well first." Kexi cheerfully broke off a dead branch from the nearby tree and said while looking at it.

"Comrade Sternan has indeed made outstanding contributions to the construction of our base area. Without Comrade Sternan's dedication, it would be difficult for us to persist until now." Comrade Sumarokov wiped his face with a little water He stood up again and said with certainty.

"Look, Comrade Sumarokov just understands. Let me tell you, comrade, I don't know anything else, but I am a good fighter in the base areas. I also fought in such high mountains back then. I don't know how much The white devils were screaming and screaming. If you talk about Soushan, these guys are still a little bit worse. Those white devils back then were the real bastards, and each one was more sinister than the other." Comrade Sternan sighed.

"But your frivolous appearance when you came here for the first time, you can't tell that you are an old comrade who has experienced many battles." Yegor also came from the foot of the mountain and asked with a frown.

"I'm very casual and in my opinion, it's very exciting to meet like-minded people again. Look, I went abroad to study before going to war. I've been in various countries. Have a navy fleet Very powerful countries, there are countries that claim to be the first on the ground, there are also countries that claim to build an inland sea, and there are also ambitious gay countries. I have been to any country, and I have all kinds of people and cultures. Understood." Comrade Sternan sat on the ground and explained while taking Cauchy's musket and recalling his past.

"After I returned to China, I first worked as a novelist, specializing in writing novels from other countries. Later, I worked as a staff member in an arms factory. Later, I also studied medicine and military affairs. My freewheeling personality was left at that time. That's why you see me so frivolously," said Comrade Stynam, examining the musket carefully.

"After so many things, are you still like this?" Comrade Yegor lowered his head and asked.

"I restrained a lot during the later Revolutionary War, but I was still very optimistic. The war became more and more difficult, and my motherland was full of smoldering smoke. Until we were stabbed again by white devils when we were transferred, I came here to this world."

"After I came to this world, I found that this world is so strange. There are cultures I have seen before, and cultures I have known since I was a child. I really want to explore this magical world, so I walked out of the forest and came to the border. I hid at the border and listened to the conversations of the people here. It was several years later that I gradually learned the awkward language here. Can you understand? Learn a little Is it difficult to write a poem that is clearly a letter but has a strong abstract meaning, and the meaning of the poem is almost indistinguishable from the poems in my hometown?" Comrade Sternan scratched the smooth green top of his head and sighed.

"The story after that is that I met those two comrades on the southwest border. They were looking for magic medicinal materials. I stole their magic book at night and found the medicinal materials in advance and placed them next to them. They were talking to me Later, I found that I could speak human language, so I agreed to bring me along." Comrade Sternan finally said.

"You have a story too. Comrade Sun Boyang is a very sincere person just like you." Sumarokov leaned against the tree and nodded.

"Sure, you don't even need to guess, or I can come?" Comrade Sternan stood up and said with a strange smile while holding the musket in his arms.

"Whether it is there, it is the same revolution. To save all human beings, to realize Internationl. There is nothing wrong here. It must be that the king of Hades can't bear my death, so he let me come This is a revolution. It’s better here. In my opinion, the environment here is more conducive to the development of the revolution. Don’t think that we are shrinking in the old forest and cannot get out, but you don’t have to look at it for more than half a year. If it is typed out, we will liberate the Southwest together with the comrades in front." Comrade Sternan said as he walked down with confidence.

"Ah! My musket!" Coxi immediately went after him, but the goblin was so strong, he just left behind a series of laughter, then got into the old forest and left Coxi far away.

"Comrade Stynam is our most loyal comrade." Sumarokov looked at the backs of the two and said to Yegor.

"It's very sincere. Comrade Sternan's heart is stronger than many humans I have seen. I will be able to tell people like this in the future. I have seen humans with as ugly hearts as goblins, but I have also seen some Goblins have the same sincere hearts as human knights."

"If it was before, who would have thought that he was such a revolutionary comrade when I first met him. When he first came, he behaved very frivolously, like a goblin who only understood human language. But later he also showed unparalleled His ability has helped us overcome many difficulties. It is really eye-opening for him to reveal his life experience after so many months." Comrade Yegor scratched his lost eyes edge said.

"There are many such people." Sumarokov nodded in agreement when he saw Mithril turning into a silver light from the sky and slowly descending.

"The cracks in time and space are becoming more and more unstable. I found out about this kind of thing 100 years ago. It used to connect mysterious worlds such as the abyss and the astral world. But this time, it seems that we are the hometown of Unicom. "

"Then will a large number of comrades come to help us?"

"I'm afraid not." Sumarokov frowned and shook his head again.

"The appearance of time-space rift is not accidental, he must be of great significance. Counting Comrade Sun Boyang, this is already the second comrade who got in touch with me, but without exception, they all came to this world empty, as if It's like... being summoned by a low-profile hero summoning circle."

Thinking of this, Sumarokov suddenly shuddered. He looked up at the sky, then lowered his head and touched his pocket and fell silent.

"Comrade Sumarokov, what are you thinking?" Comrade Yegor asked curiously.

"On the Dawn Continent, the children born after the Continental War know little about ancient history because the ancient books and relics were destroyed in the flames of war, but I am a person who landed during the Continental War, and I have seen many relic."

"A few of my partners and I once saw such a primitive painting in an underground ruin in the Maro area. At that time, I only thought it was primitive people's worship of the sky, but now, who can say for sure What is the world like?"

340 Maro War

After all, it is a fantasy world. What does this world look like?It cannot be generalized with the former hometown.There is magic here, and there are elements. Is there any in the hometown?There are strange creatures and space cracks here, are there any?There is a self-contained magical power here, and there is also a magical science that forms the academy's research. These are things that my hometown never had.

But to say the same thing, there are many.The people here are generally the same, the social environment here is similar, and the historical development here is not bad, not to mention the development of the current era here. The industrial revolution began, and global conflicts are intensifying day by day. Things are changing with each passing day, old things are dying rapidly, and new things are also blooming and withering very quickly. It can't be said that they are exactly the same, but it can be said that they are almost the same.

But there are always things that cannot be explained. Why is there a magic circle that can communicate with two worlds and can transport people from another world in this way?Why is it not a planet full of poisonous miasma, nor a planet of ice and cold, but such a similar planet?Is it by chance?The magicians of Yongdalim found our hometown after trial and error again and again?Or from the very first magic experiment, the earth has come into the sight of the people of Yondalim, and since then, the various cultures and scientific progress of Yondalim have been connected with the earth?

And who can know?Or, who cares?Everyone is worrying about the survival of tomorrow, and worrying about being able to survive the troubled times.As for those ancient histories, let's wait for a peaceful world in a few years.

"Comrade Sumarokov!!"

Brandon ran up excitedly, shaking a letter in his hand.He yelled to interrupt Sumarokov's meditation, and shouted while crawling at the fastest speed.

"The front line has contact! A comrade has sent a letter and lives in a farmhouse at the foot of the mountain!"

......

"If you want to talk about history, the history of our demon world is also very old. As far as I know, the demon world has developed for thousands of years and spent countless days and months in the chaos of war before it finally became like that. Can't fight The race of yours probably has long been turned into dust of history in the environment of the Demon Realm." Locke and the others talked to each other while walking on the street.

"The environment in the Demon Realm is extremely chaotic, and races that cannot fight can't get a place at all." Desto said to Locke while holding a few boxes in one hand, regardless of the strange eyes of the people on the street.

"According to my grandfather, the environment in the Demon Realm is extremely bad. There are two suns during the day and two moons at night. The tides are unstable, earthquakes are frequent, and the ground temperature can reach nearly [-] degrees during the day, but it can drop below zero at night." This is why people from the Demon Realm live in underground cities. The surface is so bad that no other creatures can survive on the surface except the beasts." Desto nodded and continued.

"In this situation, every inch of land is so precious, and the races that cannot fight will lose their shelter in the war, and then wait to die on the ground. The demons in the demon world are also like this because of this environment Those who yearn for war, even after reaching the Dawn Continent and occupying almost the entire south, they still have a heartfelt desire for land, which cannot be restrained at all."

"I agree. The five clans back then were actually not the most powerful races, and they were united after facing several wars. The reason why the five clans were able to gain the right to come to the Dawn Star alone is that many people died fighting It came out. On top of the five demon clans now, there were still several big races that were the rulers." Locke also nodded and said.

"Do gods really exist?" Seeing how heated the conversation was, Xiao Ling lowered his head to look at the snowflakes on the ground, then raised his head and asked very curiously.

"Whether it is the Demon Realm or the Dawn Star, there are legends of gods, and they have such noses and eyes. Is it true that all of these...are actually carried out under the eyes of gods?" Xiao Ling continued to ask.

"I don't know." Desto replied very pertinently, shaking his head.

"If there is no, then probably not. We have never seen the existence of God with our own eyes. Neither the Demon God nor the God of the Dawn Continent would be willing to see such bloodshed, but they still ignore everything and say nothing. Even if they are doing things like raising Gu, the miracles are pitifully few. In fact, the miracles with noses and eyes have been done a long time ago, so early that even the Demon World Code was vaguely mentioned, and even some ancient records are still vague. They contradict each other, and no one can say for sure what it is.”

"But if there is, that's not sure. If the silver-eyed knights want to become winged knights, they cannot do without the blessing of the goddess. Only after the blessing of the goddess can they truly become single-winged knights and become goddesses. They will also get a nightmare as a mount and partner. These things are very special, and it may be difficult for others to explain except the saint in the goddess temple." Desto continued.

"In short, who can explain it clearly? So what if they really exist. During the Demon World War, there were many times when other demons invaded Yintong's territory. I don't know how many temples were burned and destroyed, and I didn't see Yintong. The revenge of the goddess. The same is true in the Dawn Continent, God is just a symbol, instead of paying attention to those illusory things, it is better to focus on the present and think about the future of the world."

Locke took a few people into a restaurant. The four of them who had been shopping for a long time in the cold weather had long wanted to have a good meal. It was only Locke and Phoebe who didn't need food to be interested. She took the money bag from Locke and ran towards the counter. She is also a normal person. She has no golden fingers and no skills. After walking around the street for a long time and watching the development of Zhongnan for a long time, she is also in urgent need of "material food". .

"Xiao Ling is a very cute child. She is probably the daughter of a rich family, right? She knows mathematics and all kinds of knowledge, but sometimes I have to ask her about mathematics. If she is not a child of a rich family, she is really not Most likely." Helen unbuttoned her coat and said to the others.
