Xia Han and his party, who were heading north, knew nothing about the changes that had taken place in the Magic Empire. They ran around the rugged mountain road towards the junction of the West Wild Empire and the Cangji Mountains. The journey was strangely smooth.
When passing a hill, they saw a few wisps of black smoke rising from a village at the foot of the mountain. When they walked over in confusion, they saw only a dilapidated village after the smoke, with dark houses collapsed to the ground.
No living creatures could be found inside.
"This smell..." Wu Yan raised his head and sniffed the smell of smoke in the air, sensitively discovering that it was different from ordinary flames: "This is the flame of the church."
Xia Han then raised his head and smelled it, and sure enough, he felt a cool purifying element. This solved his doubts: there was a church team running in front of them and rushing north. Most of the dangers on the road were there.
were solved by them.
This team was undoubtedly the one Ji Bai had mentioned. Xia Han thought of Bai Yue's promise.
"Bai Yue, you and Wu Yan speed up and chase after us." He ordered the loyal female knight: "This team is not weak. Go and persuade their commander to help us!"
"Yes." Bai Yue and Wu Yan rode away quickly, followed closely by Xia Han and the others. However, the speed of the large army was slower after all, and the distance between the two was soon stretched far.
In the evening, Bai Yue and the two caught up with the mysterious church team. Under the pink sunset, the long team packed up and saluted in an orderly manner. The knights put the spatulas in the saddle pockets, obviously they had just eaten.
Ready to leave after dinner.
"Hey——" Bai Yue and Wu Yan stopped, and found that their knights ran to the front to report. Soon a heroic female knight came over on a war horse.
"I haven't seen you for many years, sister." Bai Yue saluted her, attracting a slightly surprised look: "Bai Yue, I haven't seen you for several years, I almost didn't recognize you."
Since the Green Tide, the two girls have not seen each other for four years, and these four years of adolescence are indeed the fastest growing time for human beings. It is very natural for their appearance to change.
"I heard that you returned to Qilin Continent, and you appeared here..." The female knight who claimed to be a cannon fodder felt strange about Bai Yue's appearance, but the command skills accumulated over the years made her sensitive to a possibility: "Is it difficult?
Could it be that your Majesty also came here to join in the fun?"
The emergence of the vampire clan has touched the nerves of the entire world. It is not surprising that the legendary king appears here. In the widely circulated stories, the ruler of the Glorious Empire has been a figure who is not afraid of anything and everything since he was a child. He is very likely to be...
Take personal risk.
"Your Majesty is right behind." Bai Yue nodded. She knew the character of the female knight very well. She also believed that the other party would not betray them: "Where is my sister going? How about we act together?"
She told the female knight Xia Han's plan. In fact, it was not a plan, it was just a line of defense to protect the Cangji Mountains.
The female knight raised her eyebrows: "That's a coincidence. I was also planning to cooperate with the people from the Sky Temple."
She has her own way. In fact, these knights are no longer under the jurisdiction of the church headquarters. They are acting for what they think is justice. Now that the vampires have appeared and the human kingdom and other branches of the church are in chaos, these knights choose
Together with the Temple Mage, we formed a line of defense.
In any case, protecting civilians and fighting against the vampires is definitely a just thing.
"Temple?" Bai Yue frowned, secretly reporting the unexpected information to Xia Han from the bottom of her heart, but the results of the feedback made her feel at ease: "The person you contacted should be the City of Glory, and the person your Majesty contacted is the City of Elves.
.”
"Although they belong to different cities, the temple has no differences in how to deal with the vampires. We can act together."
Glory, Elves, and even the City of Order will not engage in internal fighting at this critical point. The three lords all have reasons to join forces to fight - because the Blood Tribe wants to invade the Magic Empire from the Blue Ridge Mountains, it must sweep across the territory of the Sky Temple.
How could the arrogant mages allow such a situation to happen?
"Hmm~ In that case..." The female knight muttered twice, looked at Bai Yue, and then laughed: "That's good."
"The vampire activities will become more frequent after dark. Let's get out of here quickly." She invited Bai Yue, but Bai Yue was stunned: "I think it's not too late to leave after His Majesty's troops have gathered together."
However, the female knight turned around on horseback and walked towards the team: "But I don't want to see him."
"Why? Do you know His Majesty?"
"How is it possible... Of course I don't know him, but people say he is amazing, and you are willing to follow him, he must have unique charm." The female knight replied with a slight smile: "It's very unfortunate, I don't want to be with him.
Contact with an attractive man."
"I think like thousands of soldiers in the world, the battlefield is where I live and where I die... This is good, I don't want to change this."
Bai Yue was stunned for a moment, then smiled silently.
[A rational choice...] He glanced at Bai Yue and thought that these two female knights were very different from each other. One of them seemed strong, but was actually weak. She placed her life on the other person for a sense of security. Although the other one kept saying that
He says that he is cannon fodder, but he has a very independent heart.
The female knight does not want to come into contact with Xia Han because she is worried that she may be affected and is a very cautious decision. If a person is too attractive, whether he (she) is a man or a woman, he (she) will be a loser to the opposite sex around him.
Disaster.
The female knight is very smart and knows what she wants to do. How could these two completely opposite women become friends? Wuyan shook his head gently, and the horse followed him, while Bai Yue stopped for a while and asked Queen Xia Han for instructions.
He also followed.
Nishino is just a small country. On this night, two teams walked to the border one after another, to a village named Baike.
This village is the transit point between Nishino and the Sky Temple. There are usually not many people, but now the people around are coming here to seek shelter because they are afraid of the vampires. The Sky Temple relied on Princess Chunqing to successfully take over the control here and began to work closely
Set up a magic defense line.
In just a few days, this village has been transformed into a war fortress by magic puppets. Every civilian who enters must be reviewed by the mage to prevent vampires from infiltrating.
At the same time, mages were also teleported from the Sky Temple from time to time. The two people in charge here were Chun Qing and Qiu Ye, and this time Xia Han became a guest.
No...he wants to turn back into an elf lord and become the guest. (To be continued...)
