The rolling sound of the wheels stopped suddenly, and after the scenery outside the window stopped, Villando heard someone calling her name.
She opened the curtains and saw the personal bodyguard her mother, Susan Edith, had found for her.
Xavier Jon.
A young female mercenary who is half Gount and half Baviaro. Despite her appearance, she is only twenty-one or twelve years old, but she is also the leader of an adventure group, and the adventure group she leads is in
The Amber River Basin of the Southern Principality has a high reputation. This time they also unexpectedly came to Palermo for a mission. They originally planned to take the St. Lawrence airship back to another place known as the "Pearl of Gorgon".
Karen, the capital of the country, but after Susan found out about it, she spent a lot of money to hire this adventure group with the same destination and a good reputation in the industry as the escort force for this trip.
During the two days after leaving Palermo, Villando passed through the terrifying corpses of unknown monsters lying on the ground and had already raised her eyebrows at the heroic, stern-looking mercenary captain in front of her, who looked like a big sister.
enough awe and love.
"Sister Xivier, what's the matter?"
The delicate little face that poked out of the carriage window was filled with a smile. Coupled with the pitiful look in her eyes, even Xivier couldn't help but secretly sigh at the appearance and temper of this aristocratic girl.
She is a rare type of human noble that she has ever seen. Especially when the carriage is resting, she can often see this noble girl walking through the camp with her cute little teapot, pouring tea and listening to adventure stories.
, in the past two days, many people in her mercenary group have developed an attitude of care and pity towards their younger sister, this aristocratic girl who is nominally studying in the imperial capital.
Some people used to call her Miss Edith, but now everyone calls her Weilando, or Miss Weilando.
Originally, Xivier wanted to laugh, but after thinking about the main purpose of calling her this time, he stopped smiling, straightened his eyes slightly, and informed with a solemn expression.
"It's like this, Miss Weilandu, we are about to pass through the Blazing Canyon. I heard from the locals that there have been intermittent outbreaks of toxic steam mist here recently. Because we have no experience, the scouts and locals are exploring the way. It still needs to be explored.
It will take a while, so I may have to camp directly on the spot later.”
The Hot Canyon is the only way to pass through the St. Lawrence. It is a stretch of extinct volcanoes with several towns around it. It is said that evil red dragons nested here centuries ago, but when humans unified most of them
After the southern territory, although these are dangerous areas, after being tightly surrounded by human countries, large monsters such as red dragons have never settled. The only common ones may be kobolds migrating from the surrounding forests.
, the skin is also under the influence of sulfur all year round, and the color of the scales is closer to dark red.
After Weilanduo heard Xivier's words, she immediately showed surprise and worry, as well as tolerance and understanding.
"Ah? Is that so? You must be careful! Safety comes first."
Seeing that Weilanduo was so understanding, Xivier did not continue to say any words of persuasion, but she did not prepare a few words. After all, she knew that Weilanduo was not such a person, and she was not like those former employers she wanted to eat.
Same, greedy, stingy and questioning, their favorite thing to do is to talk about deducting wages.
"Well, we will set off once a safe route is found."
Xivier ended with this, and as he walked away, he could feel the deep worry of the girl behind him.
This was indeed the case. Weilanduo, who had lowered the curtains and was sitting in the comfortable carriage, was very worried at the moment.
One is the fear of the unknown and the uncertain future.
Secondly, this reminded her of her cousin Woody, who had not been separated for long. His adventure route should have been all the way north, which had nothing to do with her route to the east of Palermo. According to the pictures in Sister Seaver's team,
Uncle Lu said that there were many more monsters along the way than here, and they were also more dangerous. The scattered city-states did not have the strong executive power of the kingdom, and many monsters migrating in the wild were left alone. If you are not lucky, you may even encounter them.
dragon.
Thinking of the ferocity and power of dragons in fairy tales and bard legends, Weilanduo couldn't help but pray to the goddess of life in her heart.
I hope Cousin Woody can reach the Northland safely along the way, and then he can come to St. Lawrence to find her next June, according to the aunt who lives in St. Lawrence and is a college lecturer.
It was early summer at that time, and the lotus flowers in the tree-lined lakes on both sides of Queen's Road outside the college, as well as the jasmine and pansies planted next to it, would cover the entire road and view. At that time, I would go to the college in the morning accompanied by the breeze and the flawless flowers.
In the evening, she returned to the apartment where she lived in the hazy light. Just thinking about it made her feel wonderful. She also wished that Woody could also see the scenes of blooming flowers described by her aunt. These are the scenes of Bale living on the coast.
What Mo couldn't see, and St. Lawrence also had her favorite mechanical theory research subject. It is said that there was a huge stone statue more than thirty meters high placed at the entrance of the college, which existed before the establishment of St. Lawrence. It is said that
The St. Lawrence is often visited by couples witnessing…
The unbridled fantasy made the fifteen-year-old girl blush. At the same time, her inner prayers became more and more sincere, and she even made some irrational requests, such as if there was any danger, just come to her and don't find Wu.
Cousin Di and the like, after all, in the past few days, she learned from the members of Xiweier that they were very powerful, and they were the ones who got rid of the black dragons that caused trouble in the Amber River Basin under the leadership of the eldest sister.
This time, they went to Karen because there seemed to be an evil dragon causing trouble in the area, and they also asked the nearby city-states to pay tribute to them with young and beautiful virgins. They were invited to go as a dragon-slaying team.
Weilanduo asked them curiously more than once.
"Aren't you afraid of facing the dragon?"
And their answers made Weilando extremely excited.
"Of course a person is afraid, but under the leadership of the leader, he has never been afraid. At worst, we will enter the River Styx together. When the time comes, I believe the leader will lead us to fight against those damn devils in hell. After all, she is one of us
The Frasallu in my heart.”
In the historical myth of a country in the south, the meaning of Furashalu is the Valkyrie who saves people from distress. In the mouths of the local people in the south, this girl who saved dozens of city-states and two kingdoms in history is
, obviously with a level of worship, and Xiver can inherit this name, obviously in a certain sense, the two are actually not very different in the eyes of the saved.
And this is why Weilando feels that her place is extremely safe. She now regrets that she failed to keep Woody. In this case, she can actually go to St. Lawrence, and then take a flight like Sister Xavier.
The boat arrives at Karen, and then passes through the mountains on the surrounding mountain roads. From there, you can reach the Northland, but the area is different.
But it was too late to say this now, and just when Cecil was immersed in silent prayer and was preparing to go camping again after setting up the tent and learning more stories from the adventurers, there was a sudden burst of sound outside the carriage.
There was a lot of noise and the carriage was shaking strangely.
Weilanduo heard the coachman cursing, and it was obvious that there was something wrong with the horse. She thought it was just the horse being frightened, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
But less than five seconds later, she heard a thud and the sound of her knees falling to the ground.
It's the coachman outside the door.
Weilanduo was a little curious, and she planned to open the car door, but as soon as she opened it, a huge invisible pressure made her swallow back the words she had not yet uttered.
At the same time, the coachman's trembling voice, almost crying, sounded in his ears.
"...dragon...there is a dragon in the sky!"
Weilanduo swallowed her saliva and raised her head when she saw all the frightened horses kneeling on the ground with their limbs and the others looking towards the sky with almost pious eyes.
But at this time, I could only see its back leaving and heading towards the valley.
But even so, Weilanduo could still see it.
It was a giant dragon like the sun.
The scales sparkle with golden light under the sunlight.
…
Entering the territory of River Valley City was smoother than Woody imagined. After the carriage drove smoothly for an hour, Woody and Cecil saw River Valley City standing in the darkness like a towering mountain. However, because
Due to the access control at night, the only two suspension bridges were closed, leaving only the dark water flowing around outside the city.
Woody and Cecil did not want to use magic to force their way into the city. Instead, they directly chose a location with a wider view and parked the carriage on the hillside. They quietly waited in the carriage for the dawn of the next day.
.
Cecil has been busy reading the magic manual, and his words are more carefully polishing the gems used in the next ceremony.
He still couldn't hold back, and took the initiative to ask Cecil about the soul crystal transmission ritual materials. Fortunately, Cecil, as a spellcaster, had both, and as a price, he would get all the materials in the Great Rift Valley.
The proceeds, except for the tree heart, were all given to Cecil.
With money and goods at his disposal, Woody's enthusiasm for work was particularly high.
At least until the next day, this was Woody's third day in the Golden River Valley. When the slightly warm sunlight outside the window filtered through the curtains of the carriage, Woody's spirit was extremely excited, and the ceremony in front of him was even more exciting.
It's just the last step left.
As long as this is completed, the ray of divinity belonging to the spider goddess Rose in the nature shrine can be summarized into the soul crystal, and the nature shrine he spent a long time making can finally get rid of the seal and regain his connection with nature.
Ceremonial items no longer just serve as mascots that can only be seen but not used.
Rubbing his slightly dry eyes, Woody did not take the next step in the end because the carriage had already started and there was still a lot of time to go to the Lost Temple. He was not in a hurry to do it all at once that night, let alone even if
After doing this, we still need to find a place to set up the ritual barrier. It won't be too late to wait until tomorrow night when we have a rest.
He got up and walked out of the room. At this time, the door of the carriage was open, and he could just see the scene at the front of the carriage. Cecil seemed to be sitting on a chair at this time, eating breakfast elegantly.
With the dark circles under her eyes and the sound of turning pages last night, it was obvious that she didn't sleep well either.
Tsk, it’s still strong tea.
Woody wanted to say that staying up late was harmful to the body. Some mages were not physically fit to begin with, and some even suffered from a sudden severe cold during experiments because the water element was too strong. They died before they could even be sent to the temple.
This is no joke. Without the protection of spells, a simple blade can actually kill the seemingly mysterious and invincible spell caster.
But when I turned around and thought about it, I realized that I was not much better, so I stopped talking.
Shi Shiran walked forward and said good day greetings to Kaferman who was resting on the recliner beside him. Then he took another look at the tabby cat that seemed to be unable to lick it enough and whose fur could never be groomed, and smiled.
After sitting next to Cecil, the warm winter sun had just reached the treetops, the night had faded away the last trace of impurities, and the sky was light blue. After taking a breath of sober air, Woody joined her.
Looking at the valley city not far away, deeply embedded in green grass and nestled in the rolling hillsides.
From a distance, you can see that the suspension bridge that was originally tightly closed is now wide open. There are also a few pedestrians on it, including farmers pushing wheelbarrows to transport food to the city, and women carrying baskets who don't know what they are doing.
On the way to the city gate, you can occasionally see a carriage leaving the city. Sitting on the shaft of the carriage is a polite driver, wearing a black uniform and white gloves, who is extremely professional.
When Woody entered the city gate in his carriage, the guard at the gate didn't even stop him like he would any other ordinary person. He just respectfully moved the horse fence and let him go without even looking up.
The status of the nobility is obviously very high.
After entering Riverdale City, looking at the streets on both sides that were not busy in a certain sense, Woody was also cleaning up.
After all, in the final analysis, a city without the flow of people is inherently lifeless.
What's more, River Valley City is not big, and most of the prosperous buildings inside are for nobles or wealthy businessmen. At this point, they should still be sleeping in front of the fireplace at home, sleeping extremely comfortably.
Only most farmers or ordinary people who live in nearby farms and grow crops there in exchange for necessities in the city will enter the city at this time.
Last night, Woody saw a lot of wooden houses scattered on the hillside or beside the stream, which corroborated this point.
But what Woody and Cecil didn't expect was that not long after they entered the city, they saw an unusually familiar person.
Viscount Cohen.
It's just that the way he is dressed now is much more refined than when he met him in the wilderness. He is particularly noble in his aristocratic attire, but the expression on his face is extremely gloomy, even decadent.
Woody recognized at a glance that the Cohen in front of him was probably not the one he met in the wilderness, but the so-called impostor.
The spirit of nature created by Viscount Cohen’s wife!
