Chapter 792: Long Haven't Seen in a Long Time
Parting is painful, of course, but it is also full of hope. He could see the reluctance flashing in Zhuo Er Lori's eyes, even such a mature and precocious little girl always has a vulnerable side. However, this is also the path she chooses for herself. Lu Xi was very proud, because he had already taught his disciple the heart of a strong man, and he could only hope that she would find her own way of being a strong man in the near future.
Similarly, when Sai Xiliu left from Misha with his own hu, although he glared at Lu Xi viciously, shook a cold snort and turned his head in a dashing manner, the latter still felt a deep affection from her gaze.
What a sinful man I am! Lu Xi thought. In fact, he has thought about it many times.
With his own army from Misha, Sehiraeus will follow a team of dwarves transporting loot and wounded from the spiral staircase of Lantirio to the surface and overland into the land of the dwarves, and then find the returning merchant ships on the side of the Hearth.
This journey is basically on your own territory, but you don't have to worry about any danger. However, because it was an overland route and there were many mountain roads, Sai Xiliu set off a few days earlier than Lu Xi.
Lu Xi originally wanted to use the Qiyao Aurora to send them back directly, but Sai Xiliu directly refused.
"It's better to go see your Royal Highness Princess early. I have hands and feet and I am not a child to take care of, but it is not good for a real child to be away from his father for too long. "Sai Xiliu gave Lu Xi such a hard and hygienic eye, anyway, she looks like an old lady and arrogant, don't bother me.
So, Lu Xi, who knew that he was at a loss, just admitted it, and really didn't dare to bother others anymore.
By the time Lu Xi said goodbye to Orucello and the others and his newly acquainted Drow comrades, and rushed to Herlin City with his friends, it was already January 13, 1226 of the Glorious Era. His speed was already high, and he climbed up the spiral staircase from Lantirio to the surface. He found a wide square and unfolded the Seven Aurora, and then immediately activated the Moonlight Ark. The guide ship flew at a speed that even the dragons were ashamed of, and soon jumped over the Hegalos Mountains, the natural barrier between Auckland and Vegia, and approached Herring City to the south at full speed.
According to the additional contract between Auckland and the Natya Federation. The sky below 5,000 meters belongs to Auckland, and above 5,000 meters is the realm of the Federation. It is difficult for Lu Xi to imagine that people in this era already have the concept of air supremacy, and it is estimated that Auckland is based on honor and face considerations. Rather than judging by practical interests, such a treaty exists.
After all, the surface humans of this era are not fully aware of the importance of the sky. When they do realize it, maybe all the surface nations will unite to take action against Nadia......
However, Lu Xi said that this has nothing to do with me at all.
In any case, in order not to irritate the G-spot of the Aucklanders, when the Qiyao Aurora jumped over the Rainbow River and approached Hering City, they found a relatively hidden woodland. Lu Xi and Hurricane teamed up to cast a large stealth enchantment and silence stance on the guide ship, and then slowly landed.
The landing went well, at least not to alarm the citizens of nearby Auckland.
Subsequently. Nicole found a group of horses from the nearby grassland, although Lu Xi always thought that it was a military horse domesticated by the Royal Garden of Auckland, but since no one took care of it, it could naturally be regarded as an ownerless thing. So everyone has a means of transportation.
Theoretically, as long as you jump over the Rainbow River, you will enter the most densely populated core of the Oakland Empire. One only has to look at the nearby fertile pastures and farmsteads to see that in times of peace, it is an idyllic picture of prosperity and abundance. However, at this time. Although everyone saw a lot of farms and buildings, not a single living person saw them...... Civil war. Indeed, it has also given the people of Auckland, who are still immersed in the prosperous era of the great Sun King, a wound that is difficult to heal.
When the group approached Herin City, they could even see the Red Rose Holy Spring battle flag belonging to the "Emperor" of Iconn fluttering on the top of the city, and the group was also blocked by a nearby horse patrol.
Lu Xi and his entourage are indeed not very old, but the models and styles are very complete. There are men and women, there are elves, there are lori, there are dogs, and there are minotaurs. All of them were draped in heavy travel coats, which obscured the light of their sophisticated treasure-grade weapons and armor, and they looked like a group of travelers or ordinary mercenaries...... However, it is quite difficult to pretend to be a passerby, even if it is due to the overnight rush, all of them seem to be a little dusty. But mercenaries and travelers with such a high average appearance are really rare.
In this world of looking at faces, people with high looks are unlikely to be ordinary people, plus this group of young men and women are all extraordinary, according to the saying, they are very aura. Even the human archers and minotaur warriors who seemed to be miscellaneous servants vaguely exuded a sense of oppression and fierceness that belonged to the battle-hardened strong.
These patrolmen are not country guards who have not seen the world, they only know how to catch robbers and chase thieves, but they are all professional soldiers who have gone through a series of battles. This elite soldier who comes down from the battlefield often has a far stronger sixth sense than ordinary people living in a peaceful environment, and can also capture the similarity of people of the same kind.
And at this time, they felt this aura from this seemingly harmless team of humans and animals, and it was far deeper and stronger than themselves......
They suddenly became nervous, as if a pack of wolves had met a passing tiger, trembling as if they were facing a great enemy, half of them showing their swords, and the other half had already bent their bows and arrows.
"Please don't be so nervous, we're not enemies." Lu Xi raised his hand to show that he had no malicious intentions, while carefully identifying the uniforms and flags on these soldiers, trying to distinguish their subordinates, but he was quickly disappointed. The patrol men wore hard, hard-skinned leather armor of exquisite workmanship, gray winter coats, and rode tall and powerful horses, with swords hanging from their waists, spears in their hands, and small shields in their saddles, all with a fierce expression and demeanor. Although they were all a group of light cavalry dressed in light armor and short spears, they were rare elite soldiers in a hundred battles at first glance. They wore the heraldic banner of a black-haired battle angel that made them look very immediate, but it was not part of the heraldic insignia of any of the legions and nobles in the central Oakland Empire.
It doesn't matter which one it is. Let's talk about it first. Lu Xi was just about to say a few words, but he heard a familiar voice from the other side: "Bei, Master Belencaster?" Is that you? Master of Belencaster! ”
The voice quickly changed from question to surprise, and a young knight appeared in front of everyone.
The man who made the voice was almost the youngest of these elite soldiers present, and he would not be more than twenty-five years old. But in the same way, he is also the most glamorous of all. Like everyone else, he was dressed in hard leather armor, but he looked much better in workmanship and materials than the others, and the key points were inlaid with metal guards. The leather armor was covered with a gray-blue winter cloak, embroidered with silk thread with the same battle angel coat of arms as the banner, and fastened to the chest with a small oak-shaped coat of arms.
The long sword on his waist is by no means a large road product produced on the assembly line, and the shield grid and scabbard are obviously decorative, and they are by no means ordinary at first glance. Besides. The war horse under this person's crotch is handsome, with well-proportioned bones and a high-spirited demeanor, and at first glance it is a precious Xilin war horse. Although from a normal point of view, these can definitely be regarded as good horses.
This patrol does have the flavor of a veteran and an elite battle, and it is a bit murderous. But it also carries a little bit of the vicissitudes and depression of a ruffian. But this young man was the only one present who was full of knightly style. And it's the kind of type that is full of positive energy and a sense of honor from heart to soul, and can be put in a textbook on the knight's illustrated book just by temperament.
If you want to say that this guy is not a knight, no one will believe it, and it is estimated that he should be the commander of this patrol. Of course, he did not wear sturdy armor and a covered helmet, but carried a cavalry spear with a striped banner and a knight's kite shield inlaid with coats of arms, and a gorgeous cloak like a fighting. But like ordinary patrol soldiers, they wear leather armor, and it is estimated that it is also considered from the realistic perspective of being lightweight, flexible, and lightening the burden. After all, his mission this time was to lead the patrol, not to wrap himself into a tin can and charge into battle.
This young man also has a face that is very consistent with his positive temperament. Thick eyebrows, big eyes, wide ears, and a little bit of inconspicuous stubble on the chin, bringing a hint of maturity. Purely in terms of aesthetics, his appearance should be between handsome and passers-by, but at first glance, it makes people feel very spiritual, a very reliable good young man with good three views.
At this time, this young knight with thick eyebrows and big eyes who knew that he was a positive character at a glance but always felt that he would die in the first episode, looked at Lu Xi seriously, and finally made sure that he was not mistaken, so his expression became more affectionate, and he felt that every end of the sword-like thick eyebrows was full of surprise: "It's really you, master, you also rushed to help?" Your Highness will be very happy if you come. Uh, you can't remember me? It's me, I'm ......."
"It's you! Oh no, Brother Barron! Lu Xi finally recognized the other party. He felt that after nearly 400 chapters, he could still recognize such a dragon set of himself, which was really powerful when he talked about it in detail, and suddenly had a sense of pride.
This young man's name is Barron, Karin set up in the orphanage of the Dominion of the Frozen Valley, to put it bluntly, he is a qualified "product" who graduated from the thug training camp, although he is a dragon, but he has a very good swordsmanship, spear skills and riding skills, and he has also received complete military training under the Eye of the Stars Grissa Female Sword Saint, and the whole person is full of knightly honor and discipline, and he also has full loyalty to his benefactor and lord.
In Lu Xi's eyes, although this kid is a trick, in the eyes of ordinary people, he is indeed a rare elite.
When Lu Xi and his friends first arrived in the Frozen Valley Dominion, the bear children in the orphanage mistook them for the killers sent by the "Emperor" of Iken, and it was this Barron who led them into the ambush circle. At the beginning, this little brother of Barron was still a little student-like immature, but now he has more steadiness and fortitude that has precipitated, and he has obviously grown a lot on the battlefield.
Of course, strictly speaking, this child should be a few years older than Lu Xi, but when Lu Xi called him "Brother Barron", he behaved willingly, and even had a radiant appearance, as if he had been praised by an idol.
"You should have come from heaven to help in the war? It's been too hard all the way. Barron said, "I will take you back to the camp and send someone to inform Your Highness immediately." ”
"From the ground, to be exact." Lu Xigan laughed, groaned for a while, looked at the patrols around him, rode a few steps, lowered his voice, and said in a voice that only he and Barron could hear, "How is Karin?" ”
"Your Highness is naturally well! And it has just led us to another decisive victory. ”
Lu Xi was a little surprised not to hear the news he was expecting, he looked at the red rose flag on the city in the distance, frowned, and said, "Decisive victory? ”
"Yes, so that you know, master, although Herin City has not yet been taken, the army of the puppet Emperor Iken has been completely wiped out under the city, and he himself has only fled." (To be continued......)
