This small town on the border of Carreta was short of supplies. Elaine and Soy searched around. Not to mention renting carriages, there was no place to even rent horses. Moreover, since Mirron's caravan left a few days ago,

No caravans were seen coming here anymore. However, Elaine and Soy did not know that although this town was located on the border and relatively remote, there were not many merchants coming and going on weekdays, and the number of merchants in the town was

Although the townspeople noticed it, the Carreta people, who had always been informal, naturally did not think about it - to be precise, they did not believe that the Kingdom of Blaeno, which had concluded a peace alliance with them for decades, would suddenly cease to exist.

Declare war!

"Now it seems we can only go hiking." Elaine smiled and rubbed Lily's head. Seeing Lily's unhappy look, Elaine comforted her, "Adventures naturally involve seeing the people and scenery along the way.

La~ If you travel quickly by carriage, you will miss a lot of interesting things~"

"But it's tiring to walk back like this, isn't it?" Before Lily said anything, Mitte complained. He was used to being pampered, so naturally he didn't want to go hiking, but even if he didn't want to, he didn't have any means of transportation now.

Speaking of the Carreta people, people always think of the kind of cheerful big guys who don't stick to trivial matters, but Lily found that the Carreta people are not the kind of people who completely ignore details, at least the official Bika of the Carreta Kingdom

The land in Carreta Kingdom is much better. The land in the Kingdom of Carreta is rocky, and walking in the wild will definitely feel rough. However, the roads built in the Kingdom of Carreta are all paved with polished stone slabs. Although the specifications of the stone slabs are

It is not uniform, but it is well-proportioned and not messy. The Kingdom of Blaino does not have this kind of treatment. It can be said that except within the city, the general roads are dirt roads. The better ones are tamped yellow mud roads, but paved with stone slabs.

But there are almost none. It's fine on a sunny day, but if it's windy or rainy, the nobles don't care. They have horses and cars, but the common people are miserable. They have to walk all the way in mud and water, and they are unlucky to meet passing horses.

Or the carriage might get splashed with mud.

However, Lily learned from Chris the reason why the Kingdom of Kaletta has such a road paved with stone slabs. One of them is naturally the inexhaustible stone material of Kaletta, and the other is

This is because local famines or other natural disasters often occur in Kaleta, but the land in the Kingdom of Kaleta is not suitable for horse-drawn carriages to transport supplies. Horse-drawn carriages often overturn due to stumbling over rocks while galloping, thus delaying disaster relief.

Time. Later, under the promotion of the Kaleta King and the spontaneous organization of the people, wherever the Kaleta people gathered, there would be such a road paved with stone slabs.

After walking with Chris, Lily and the others discovered that this red-haired girl who looked a little cold was actually very talkative. Compared with Elivin's hearsay and few adventures, what Chris had experienced over the years

The adventure story was much more exciting, and even Elaine was a little excited to ask questions, let alone Prince Mitte, the Crown Prince of Blenno who stayed at home.

And Chrissy has basically been traveling alone for these years. Even if she meets some friends during the adventure, Chrissy has not yet met anyone who can really give up everything and follow Chrissy on her adventure. Elaine's eyes lit up.

He quickly invited Chris to join them on their adventure in Bartlea.

"Bartleya..." Chris sighed and said to Elaine, "Although I have never been there, I don't really want to take risks there. I have met some high-level people during my travels.

Elves, their eyes-higher behavior makes me a little annoyed."

"Don't there be moon elves and wood elves in Bartlea?" Lily asked curiously, "They can't be like the high elves, right?"

Chrissy shook her head and was about to say something, then hesitantly asked: "Um...your name is Lily, right?"

Lily nodded and said happily: "Yes, yes, my name is easy to remember!"

Chris tilted her head and looked at Lily's ears, which were much pointier than ordinary people, and her long golden hair, and asked doubtfully: "Do you have the blood of a high elf?"

Lily couldn't help but feel depressed: "How do I seem to have the blood of a high elf?"

Elaine couldn't help but be stunned - is there no such thing? But...

"According to high elves, they have long golden hair as bright as the sun and a pair of ears that are more noble and elegant than other pseudo-elves." Chris explained, "In other words, high elves basically have long golden hair.

Ears, although your ears are not long, they are so pointed..."

Lily rolled her eyes - is there such a thing? But think about Elsa, Halina, and Elsa's sister. It is true that they are all blond as Chris said, and their ears are indeed bigger than Orillie's.

Ya's is longer.

"Hey, don't worry about all that. Let's talk about the moon elves and wood elves first~" Seeing that Lily didn't want to say anything more, Chris naturally wouldn't pursue other people's privacy. After all, they had only known each other for a few days, even if

Even if you are an acquaintance, it is best not to inquire into other people's privacy.

"Actually, moon elves and wood elves are like vines attached to a big tree called high elves." Chris said with regret, "High elves regard moon elves and wood elves as servants, and even

The settlements of these two tribes are located outside of Bartlea. Even if foreign tribes invade, the soldiers of these two tribes will be killed or injured. And not to mention the moon elves, the wood elves hate orcs and humans for various reasons. For those who love nature,

For them, we humans are simply their old enemies..."

"Old enemy?" Soy asked with some confusion, "Why do you say that? It seems that we humans have never done anything bad to them, right? Excluding those slave-catching teams with their heads in their belts, the human kingdom and

There is an Orc Empire between Bartlea and even if there is a war, it can't be fought, right? Isn't this hatred too groundless?"

Mira tapped her palms and seemed to understand something and said: "Could it be because of the relationship between trees and flowers? I heard that wood elves love life and will never harm any life, even where they live.

Use magic to make trees naturally form a bookstore that looks like a bird's nest, but humans cut down trees to build houses, so they hate humans, right?"

Chrissy nodded and said helplessly: "That's pretty much it."

"This is too outrageous!" Mitte rolled his eyes and said a little feebly due to the long journey, "So, not only humans and orcs, but any race that uses wood will be disgusted by wood elves.

?This race is too outrageous!"

"What about the moon elves? Do moon elves also have any strange hobbies?" Lily asked hurriedly. If she finally found little Aurelia, but was disliked because she didn't understand the customs of the moon elves, she would be finished.

"I don't know much about the moon elves." Chris said frankly, "After all, I have never been to Bartlea, and the moon elves themselves are quite mysterious. Compared with the high elves and wood elves, the moon elves seem to be very

It's low-key, even their neighbors the Winged People don't seem to know much about this race - at least I haven't heard them mention the news about the Moon Elves."

"Hey... I see..." Lily turned her head with some disappointment, glanced at the seemingly endless wilderness in front of her and the stone-paved road in the wilderness, and suggested, "Why don't we find a place to rest for a while?

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and I feel like eggs can be baked on the stone slabs under my feet.”

Mitt immediately stepped forward with a grimace and said: "Don't talk about eggs, the soles of my feet have been roasted... I say we should find a carriage?"

Originally, among Lily's group, only Soy, a high-level warrior, was the weakest, but after Mitt joined, Mitt immediately became the last one. Although Mitt, who was idle all day and was ignorant, had a better character than his brother.

A little bit, but if you don't practice diligently, even with the support of various resources from the royal family, your strength can only reach a high level, but it is far behind Suoyi, a high-level person who has worked hard.

Soy smiled playfully and said to Mitt: "Your Highness Mitt, look at these three ladies, none of them are tired, but you look like you are about to fall down from exhaustion..."

Mitte looked at Chris, who looked dull, then at Lily, who seemed to be looking for a resting place, and then at Mira, who didn't have a drop of sweat on her face. She suddenly lost all composure - I am a dignified seven-foot man.

, how could he lose to a woman? But when he saw Qianyu standing next to Lily, holding her own paw and blowing on her to dissipate heat, Mitte suddenly felt mentally balanced... After all, there was someone more unbearable than himself~

The environment here in Carreta is indeed much worse than that in Blaeno. After Lily searched for a long time, she found that there was not even a piece of flat grass nearby, not to mention the shade of trees. Even if there were a few solitary ones dotted here, they could be called...

The trees in the Gobi desert seemed to have become a little dry due to the scorching heat, and even the leaves were baked and curled.

We found a random tree, and no one dared to sit on the stone that was burning their butts. They just stood or squatted to rest under the shade of the tree. Lily was the most comfortable. She asked Qianyu to spread her wings to help herself shade from the sun——

Although she is not afraid of heat, and has blood energy and will not be hurt by the sun, as a vampire she still hates the sun. Poor little Qianyu can only hold her wings stiffly, which increases

The area burned by the sun...

"Speaking of which, Carretta is a little too dry, isn't it?" Mira licked her chapped lower lip, took the water bag handed over by Elaine, and complained, "It's hot and dry, so...

Like a big oven..."

Chrissy didn't say anything. As a Kalreta native, she had already adapted to the harsh environment of Kalreta. But Soy smiled heartlessly and said: "My Miss Mira, you

You must know that both Blano and our Skell have a continuous water source like the Shuyang River. There are no rivers at all on the map here in Carreta, not even lakes. How can we not

What to do?"

Chris looked at the sky and said calmly: "Don't worry, although Carreta does not have the kind of large rivers and lakes that can be shown on the map, there are still many water sources, and I remember where I lived when I was a child.

There is a small lake not far away from the village...and it should rain soon, so let's take a short rest and then take action."

"Raining?!" Lily looked at the sky with no clouds and only a bright sun, and asked in surprise, "How did you know it was going to rain? There is obviously not even a cloud!"

Rain naturally requires clouds. Even artificial rainfall uses clouds to rain. If there are no clouds in the sky, how can it rain? Lily still knows this basic common sense.

"Ah...it would be nice if it really rained." Mitte muttered weakly, leaning against the trunk of the tree, "I didn't expect taking risks to be such a painful thing. Maybe I should choose to take risks in autumn?"

"

"That's an outing, not an adventure." Soy complained.

Everyone rested for a while and then continued on the road. Regardless of whether it would rain or not, given the temperature outside, Lily and the others had no way of camping out for the night. They had to quickly arrive at the next town to stay - it has to be said that although Gasaiin did not

There is no wifi for electrical appliances, but magical things like magic can replace many things that Lily is familiar with, such as... air conditioning. Just ask a junior or intermediate magician to help you carve a magic circle in the room, and then

The powder made by grinding magic crystals can be used to drive the magic circle and cool down the room. However, even if you just hire a junior magician, it will cost a lot of money, and ordinary hotels cannot afford it.

, Lily has only seen it in the hotel in King Blake City. But the architecture here in Kaleta is relatively unique. These houses made of large rocks and mud are very cool, at least much cooler than outside, and Lily and the others

The town you are going to stay in is not a border town, but the famous gladiatorial city of Grandeato in the Kingdom of Carretta!

Gladiatorial combat is a very popular sport within the Kingdom of Carretta, but King Carretta prohibits private gladiatorial fights and slave gladiatorial fights, and also prohibits gambling during gladiatorial fights - of course, King Carretta himself does not count, so it is

There is such a group of guys who are unwilling to be lonely and have established an underground arena on the edge of the center of Principia Carreta for thrill-seeking warriors and rich people to come here for entertainment. As time goes by, the reputation of this place is getting bigger and bigger, and the city

The scale of the city also expanded accordingly, and because it was located on the edge, the previous kings of Kaleta were unable to control it even if they wanted to. In the end, they simply turned a blind eye and acquiesced to the existence of this city.

A hotel in such a large-scale city should have "air conditioning", right? Thinking this way, Lily suddenly felt that the scenery in front of her was a little dim. When she looked up, Lily was dumbfounded - large tracts of dark clouds were like thousands of troops.

Rolling in from the west, it quickly covered the sun and the sky, and then the dull thunder came slowly. Chris raised her lips and said: "This scene will appear every year at this time. These dark clouds come from the Tianren Mountains."

It's coming in a different direction. Although the cause is unknown, the omen before it comes is that the weather is hot and cloudless."
