After saying these words, Adolf stood up and walked to the window again, looking out at the Danube River. The old iron bridge that often made him inexplicably angry before still stood there quietly.
In Kubicek's memory, when Adolf was talking about his urban ideas for Linz, he often looked at that "big ugly monster" and found it unpleasant. As expected, he immediately started complaining again.
"That ugly thing is still there! But it doesn't have many days left, just wait and see, Kubicek."
Then Adolf turned around and said to Kubisik with a smile.
"I really want to walk on that bridge with you again, just like before. But this is no longer realistic. I will be surrounded by people wherever I go. But believe me, Kubicek, I
A grand blueprint has been planned for Linz.”
Kubicek is convinced of this.
He had personally experienced the thoughts of the "head of state" in front of him when he was young. At that time, he had walked through the streets and alleys of Linz, just to find the areas that needed to be changed. Now, he began to slowly follow himself from every plan.
Talk about.
"The new Danube Bridge will be called the Nibelungen Bridge, and it will be a model in the history of modern bridge architecture."
Adolf described the shape of the bridge's two bridgeheads to Kubisik in detail, followed by the theater. In Adolf's vision, when the new opera house is built on the site of the train station, the theater will be used exclusively for performing dramas and performances.
Operetta. In addition, if Linz is to become a veritable "Bruckner City", a modern concert hall must be built for the city...
"I want to make Linz a cultural center and I want to see it all come to fruition."
In front of Kubicek, with his back to Linz outside the window, Adolf spoke to his friend passionately, just like his heroic words back then.
In the past, Kubicek would jokingly ask him: "So, where does the money come from?" and then drew Adolf's glare. But now, Kubicek can no longer ask this question.
Because now he is no longer the poor boy he was back then. Back then, he could only outline his dreams in his mind, but now he owns half of Europe, and the whole world wants to listen to his voice. He already has
Have the ability to personally realize the dream you had back then.
Looking at the "head of state" in front of me, his smug and high-spirited image gradually overlaps with the image of the poor boy who was talking loudly and full of ambition in Linz...
Kubicek thought the meeting was about to end, but Adolf then began to envision forming a large symphony orchestra in Linz, and at this time, the conversation between the two suddenly turned to a personal topic.
"Tell me, Kubicek, what is your current occupation?"
Adolf stared at the friend in front of him. He wanted to know what happened to his friend in the past thirty years. Then Kubicek told Adolf that he had been working as a clerk since becoming a government employee in 1920.
"Secretary? What does a clerk do?"
he asked doubtfully.
Kubischik looked a little embarrassed. He knew that Adolf looked down on civil servants and thought they were just messing around. Adolf interrupted again.
"So you have become a civil servant, a clerk! This is not suitable for you. Where is your music?"
Kubicek was silent for a moment, and then told a story about the past that he had never said before.
In 1912, he studied at the Vienna Conservatoire for four years, and was finally hired as the deputy conductor of the band at the Maribor Municipal Music Theater, where he made his debut and then toured surrounding cities, winning recognition from all walks of life.
Lots of support and appreciation.
Immediately afterwards, the theater owner was very impressed by his performance and expressed his willingness to let him serve as opera conductor. It was an excellent orchestra of 40 people, a good theater, and a modern stage, all of which were in Kaili.
The capital of Erten State, this city is famous for its love of music.
From a family of decorators to a musician who is now about to step onto the big stage, Kubicek has gained everything he could not even imagine in the past. Everything seems to be getting better.
But a few months later... the war destroyed everything.
In 1914, the war with Russia broke out, and Kubisik was forced to go to the front line as an ordinary soldier in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. When he returned to his hometown a few years later, he found that everything had changed. His father was seriously ill, and after he returned
He died not long after; in order to take care of his mother, he finally chose to give up his musical dream and became an ordinary civil servant in Efeding...
Adolf listened carefully, and finally fell silent. He always respected Kubischik's parents, but he never thought it would be like this.
He nodded silently and said:
"Yeah, the war we lost."
That war changed the fate of two people.
A young man with musical talent, who seemed to be a promising musician, eventually had to give up his dream because of the war. Similarly, Adolf's future seemed to have no suspense, with aimless study and professional training.
His contempt seemed to only lead to failure, but at this moment he relied on that war to become the current head of state of Germany.
Then Adolf looked at Kubicek and said.
"You're not going to be a clerk your whole life, Kubicek."
As he spoke, he stood up again, paced back and forth, and then seemed to have made a decision.
"Kubisik, I want to go to Efeding."
Efeding, this is where Kubischik now lives and where he works as a civil servant.
"Of course I'll come to see you, Kubicek. But I'll only come just for you, and then we can take a walk along the Danube. Here, I can't even think about it - they never let me
Go out alone."
His tone was calm and firm, but Kubicek could imagine the difficulty of this decision.
He is not alone. He is involved in the affairs of the entire country. When he opens his eyes all day long, he is surrounded by a large number of laws, administrative processes, appointments and removals of high-ranking government officials, and even military mobilization orders. A single sentence can make thousands of decisions.
The life and death of thousands of people. He can't even go out alone on a normal day, let alone the sudden thought of abandoning government affairs and going to a small city. This is bound to encounter fierce opposition.
However, Kubicek shook his head and persuaded Adolf to give up this idea. He did not want his friend to delay his business for him.
Adolf frowned, and finally the two of them talked about the music they both liked.
Now we finally talked about the topic that Kubicek liked. But in the end Kubicek just briefly talked about some music activities that I participated in in the town and the small band that I formed in my spare time. Because I was with Adolf on weekdays.
His small concert performances were insignificant compared with the major international affairs he was dealing with, so Kubicek worried that talking too much would bore him.
But he thought wrong. In order to save time, he had to mention this kind of thing in one sentence, but Adolf interrupted reluctantly:
"What, Kubicek, you can play a symphony in such a small Efeding! It's incredible. What repertoire have you played?"
Then he asked me about the strength of the band and its composition; he was full of surprise at Kubicek's answer, and at the same time congratulated his friend on his success.
"This is where I have to help you, Kubicek,"
He couldn't help but said loudly.
"Make a list for me and tell me what you need. Also, how is your personal situation? Are you living a tight life?"
It was obvious that he was hinting to Kubicek that as long as he opened his mouth, he would prepare a big band for his friend. For him at this moment, this was just a matter of words.
But Kubicek replied that although my income is only moderate, it is enough for me, so I have no personal requirements. He turned his head and looked at Kubicek with a somewhat surprised expression.
Obviously, he has never seen anyone as free from desires and desires as Kubicek.
"Do you have any children, Kubicek?"
"Yes, I have three sons."
"Three sons!"
He exclaimed with admiration, and then repeated it several times with a solemn expression.
"You have three sons, Kubisik, and I haven't gotten married yet. I am alone now. But I am willing to take care of your son."
So Kubicek talked to him about the boys in his family - Hitler wanted to know every detail of their growth. Kubicek told him that these three sons were all quite talented in music, and among them
They were both excellent draftsmen, and he was very happy after hearing this.
"Kubisik, I should shoulder the educational obligations of these three children,"
he told Kubicek.
"I don't want these talented young people to make the same mistakes as we did. You know best what it was like when we were in Vienna. But after we parted, I have experienced worse days, and we cannot let the young people's mistakes be made."
Intelligence and talent are stifled by poverty and suffering. As long as it is within my power, I will do my best, especially for your children, Kubisik!"
"Button..."
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and then a respectful male voice sounded, it was his adjutant.
"Führer, the scheduled performance is about to begin."
As if the conversation was interrupted, Adolf showed displeasure on his face, but then as if he thought of something, he suddenly said to Kubisik.
"Kubicek, are you interested in going to a show with me?"
…
It was an opera dedicated to serving the head of state, called "Twilight of the Gods". German opera singers came to Linz specially to serve the head of state, because except for the time when they returned to Linz,
The Führer had no other free time at all.
It was an extremely magnificent opera, and its solemn and resonant voice highlighted the theme of awakening. It was a well-deserved stunning masterpiece.
"This is the only show I can go to this year, but we can't help it, we're at war."
Sitting in the box, Adolf said to his friend, and then he added slightly angrily.
"This war will delay our reconstruction plan for several years. It is really a shame. I am not the head of the Greater German Reich to fight every day."
Kubicek was quite shocked that the head of state who had achieved major military victories in Poland and France would speak to him in this tone. He suddenly realized that perhaps his appearance reminded Adolf Hitler of this fact.
Time flies like an arrow, urging people to grow old.
After all, we met in the prime of life when we first met. Although he now looks stronger than ever, when he found that his childhood friend was in his twilight years, he must have also realized that the ruthless years were also on him.
It left an indelible mark on his body.
"This war robbed me of my best days."
he continued.
"You know me, Kubicek. You know that I have always wanted to build this country. This is my lifelong wish. Do you understand what I mean? You know better than anyone how much I have done when I was young.
Designs and ideas. Only a few have been realized so far, and there are still a lot of plans to be completed. But who else can take on this important task? Now I can only watch the war take away my good time."
"Shame, sadness! Time waits for no one, Kubicek, we will only get older and older. In a few years, it will be too late to even think about it."
After the opera ended, the two were about to separate, and the war was still going on. It was impossible for him to stay in Linz and reminisce with his friends. But he still reluctantly held his friend's hand and spoke affectionately.
"This war has dragged me down. But I hope this situation will not last long. Once the war is over, I can shift my focus to domestic construction and start implementing all my remaining plans.
.Kubisik, by then I will send someone to invite you, and I want you to stay by my side forever."
"Twilight of the Gods" comes to an end, and it is indeed a touching performance.
Kubicek slowly walked out of the theater and found that the street had been quarantined, so he stood where the Führer was passing by, hoping to see his friend again. A few minutes later, the Führer's motorcade arrived in front of the theater. Hitler stood beside him
He was welcomed by the crowd in his car. His escort team stayed close to the police cordon and drove on both sides of the street. The series of things that happened next will never be forgotten by Kubicek.
The convoy drove slowly toward the crowd where Kubisik was standing. Kubisik stood beside the cordon drawn by ropes and raised his arms to salute. At that moment, the head of state recognized him and signaled the driver to let the entire convoy go.
He stopped moving forward, but his car came closer to me. He leaned out and took Kubicek's hand, smiling at his friend and saying.
"goodbye."
The head of state's car returned to the middle of the escort team. He adjusted his posture and waved goodbye to everyone.
Then the motorcade drove straight to the airport, leaving behind only his friend who was trapped in the crowd and became the focus of public opinion, because everyone wanted to understand why this person was favored by the head of state.
This was Kubicek's rare contact with Adolf Hitler, because in the following days, the war became more and more difficult, and he had only a few opportunities to see his friend again.
…
"Head of State, the EU plan has made some new breakthroughs. Dr. Davinz hopes that you can take a look at the latest progress."
On the special plane, an admiral was sitting aside, recording something on the document from time to time, and speaking to Adolf Hitler at the same time.
Adolf, who had just recovered from the joy of reuniting his friends, gently rubbed his temples. The eu plan was an extremely secret plan. Even among the top Nazis, only a few people knew about the existence of this project. e is
Refers to ether, and u refers to unknown, intending to use the technology of ancient Atlantis to reproduce various black magic. In the hearts of the members of the "Far North", they crazyly believe in the existence of the ancient Atlantean civilization.
And trying to find sunken Atlantis.
According to their research, the ancient Atlantis period was an era of highly developed magic. Ancient humans used an energy called "ether", and Dr. Davinz was responsible for using the ancient Atlantean civilization.
"Aether", trying to create an aircraft powered by "Aether" to deal with Allied fighters.
"A saucer-shaped aircraft? Interesting."
Looking at the drawings of the new aircraft handed over by the admiral, the strange saucer-like aircraft aroused Adolf's interest.
"The ancient wisdom should not be buried like this. Germany needs more powerful technology, no matter what it is. Also tell the ancient army group, I don't care if their enemies are werewolves, fishmen, vampires, even if they are giant dragons, any
All enemies who stand in the way of Germany must be crushed!"
The deep voice spoke loudly.
According to Germany's army group organization at the time, there were six army groups a, b, c, d and south and north. Although they would be expanded in the future, there had never been any ancient army groups...
…
In an ancient underground church in London, England, a group of people wearing black monks' robes were talking amidst the candlelight.
"It is now certain that the World Key has fallen into the hands of the Nazis. To be precise, it has fallen into the hands of the Nazi leader. In other words, the World Key has chosen him."
An old monk who shrouded himself in a black monk's robe said to his companion in front of him.
Several people were silent, except for the occasional sigh.
"The World Key is not something that humans can control. Although no one can really crack the secret of the World Key to this day, we cannot let this possibility happen. If the German head of state really cracks the secret
The secret…the consequences are disastrous.”
One of them couldn't help but said.
But then an old female voice retorted.
"But past experience has taught us that intervening in secular power struggles is not a good thing, and we will definitely pay the price."
Suddenly, there were noisy voices among several people.
There was a fierce dispute among this ancient monastery about whether to intervene in secular affairs, but in the end, a voice quelled the dispute.
"Secular power has nothing to do with us, and whether Germany is strong or not has nothing to do with us who hide from the world. The world is troubled, power struggles are ups and downs, and there is nothing new in a thousand years, so why should we care. But now the man named Ji
The young forces in the North actually tried to use secular power to suppress the entire dark world in search of their so-called Atlantis civilization... The battle between the dark world and the secular world lasted for tens of thousands of years, and it was not easy to achieve what it is today.
It’s a balance, and it’s never beneficial to upset it.”
"This is not a matter for us, but a matter for the entire human world. The German head of state named Adolf has now united with Italy to suppress France and defeat Poland. I am afraid that there will be no opponent in the whole of Europe..."
The voice pondered for a moment and then said.
"We are rooted in Europe. I am afraid that we cannot be completely sure with our own strength. Perhaps... we should seek help from the new world on the other side of the ocean."
As soon as the word "New World" came out, the crowd suddenly became quiet.
For these old monks in the monastery, this word seems to have some special power that makes them reluctant to mention it.
"New World? You mean asking those businessmen who are obsessed with worldly power and wealth, the Freemasons, for help?"
A dissatisfied old female voice sounded, and the disgust in it was beyond words, as if there was some kind of feud between her and this Freemason.
"The Freemasons control the entire New World, and Europe also has their power. Their power is still greater than that of the Priory. Now is not the time to care about grudges. For the benefit of mankind, we should unite with the Freemasons to defeat the German head of state.
.”
Following this sound, the underground church fell into silence again.
A few days later, a letter was sent to somewhere in the United States across the ocean.
"...About Germany...World Key..."
…
And somewhere in Berlin, in a place that was tightly protected by numerous steel chambers and state-of-the-art institutions, inside that lifelike statue, an upright pupil opened, staring coldly into the crystal sky.
On the chessboard, the ferocious head holding weapons in both hands slashed wantonly on its mother body, and blood oozed out everywhere where it slashed.
The huge thing with hundreds of heads, hundreds of limbs, neither human nor beast made a sound of pain. It tried to get rid of the pain, but the hundreds of heads on its body all had their own different ideas and were going crazy on the side.
The noise makes it difficult for it to realize its own ideas.
"..."
Staring at the painful behemoth, the cold pupils let out a strange sneer that ordinary people could not hear.
Nationalism, which originated from the Hundred Years' War between England and France, was inspired by the patriotic sentiments of Joan of Arc, the savior of the country, and was baptized by the French Revolution. It promoted the birth of something above the crystal sky.
It is precisely because of the formation of the concept of one's own "humanity" that the behemoth with thousands of heads crawling on the earth was finally formed, because all human beings regard themselves as the same kind.
But now, this thing that once promoted progress has finally been twisted into something surly and cruel.
Wisdom breeds deceit, courage breeds violence, love breeds lust, kindness breeds weakness... Good and evil are one, and everything has its two sides. So, what will be born from nationalism that was born to protect the country?
The cold pupil once said that it planted a seed with the help of Joan of Arc, and now, the seed has sprouted.
Staring at the behemoth on the chessboard, crying in pain, the cold pupils let out a weird laugh, mocking the little beast who was overestimating its capabilities.
