In the evening, the girl knights reined in their horses and stopped. Six of them took out tools from the space equipment and began to build a simple campsite. The six girls left in search of fresh food and dry wood. The remaining eight girls stood in the most suitable position to intercept the enemy's attack and began to be vigilant. They did not show any signs of slacking off because of their strength beyond ordinary people.
Those who noticed this scene later couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. They didn't know which noble family trained the valet knight. This kind of quality is not inferior to the most elite army in the empire.
On this trip, none of the girl knights were wearing the uniforms of the Knights of the Rose, so no one recognized their origins.
Some people may associate it with Serubelia's hair, eye color and black military uniform, which is almost unknown to Academy City in the northern part of the empire in recent years, but they can only bury their speculations deep in their hearts. No one wants to provoke these seemingly A young and beautiful girl who actually kills people without blinking an eye.
When King Ye walked out of the carriage, many people felt a little weird. Is this the owner of these girl knights?
It's too young.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the young man's black and silky hair reached his shoulders. He was wearing an ordinary black swordsman's uniform. His exposed snow-white skin was flawless, as if he could squeeze water out of it with a pinch. His pale golden eyes made him People feel noble but also gentle and kind.
A woman disguised as a man? When they saw the young man's delicate and perfect androgynous appearance that was not like a human being, they were amazed and at the same time, this thought flashed through everyone's mind. There is no shortage of aristocratic ladies these days who disguise themselves as men and go out.
With the spiritual power spread unconsciously around him, King Ye could see the expressions and reactions of these people. Although he was a little annoyed, he didn't want to explain anything. It's enough to explain this kind of thing once or twice. Should I explain it to everyone who doubts his gender in the future? If you have this free time, you might as well spend more time with your woman.
"Your Highness, please drink some water." Serubelia took out a pot of water and a wine glass from the Void Ring. After filling it, he handed it to King Ye. I'm not surprised why c.c didn't come down. Based on her understanding of that lazy woman. I'm afraid I'm still sleeping now.
King Ye took it and took a few sips before passing the cup to Seruberia's mouth. Looking at the crystal clear plump lips, the narrow-mindedness in his eyes became more intense.
The Valkyrie, who could remain calm even when thousands of people were bleeding like rivers, turned red at the boy's mischievous behavior.
In the end, Serubelia drank the half glass of water with a rosy and beautiful face under the "ferocious" pressure of King Ye, making the girl knights next to her snicker in their hearts. Along the way, they didn't see King Ye bullying Seluberia, and they also saw another side of Seluberia.
After a while, the six girls who left also returned with enough dry wood and game for one night.
In fact, the girls¡¯ space equipment and Serubelia¡¯s void ring have prepared a lot of dry food, but they don¡¯t want to force King Ye to eat those dry and difficult-to-swallow foods if conditions permit.
Light a fire. The girl skillfully removes the internal organs of the killed beast, roasts it on the fire, and then sprinkles some special spices when the fire is hot enough.
Soon, the entire campsite was filled with the mouth-watering aroma of meat.
The caravans in the distance are also building temporary camps in full swing. They do not want to resist the attacks of monsters and bandits, but they just want to be less harassed by wild beasts when they rest at night. At the same time, there are also many mercenaries who rely on their skills to go out hunting to improve the food for their respective mercenary groups and employers.
The sound of soft footsteps came from far and near. King Ye looked up and a handsome middle-aged businessman came into view.
The several girl knights on guard also turned their attention to this well-dressed businessman, and did not relax their vigilance because the man did not reveal any magical fighting spirit.
Assassins are good at hiding their profession.
"My lord, Bruno would like to sincerely thank you for your previous help." The middle-aged man walked to King Ye and lowered his head and said, with a gentle smile on his handsome and mature face. Neither distant nor flattering. Similarly, although Bruno does not know the true gender of King Ye, he will not recklessly call him Mr. or Miss. As a well-informed big businessman, he knows very well that these extraordinary-looking people are in a certain place. taboos.
"It's just a small thing, Mr. Bruno doesn't need to worry about it." King Ye held Seluberia's soft little hand and played with it carefully. He shook his head and said, "And Mr. Bruno's caravan destination is also Linhai Alley? "
Linhai Lane is the largest city located in the northern coastal area of ??the Eastern Empire. Merchants bring goods from the southern part of the empire to these coastal cities to sell them at high prices, and then sell specialties that can only be produced in the ocean.??Bring it back to the south of the empire and make huge profits from it. And every day, countless merchants and mercenaries become feces in the bellies of monsters and souls killed by thieves on the road.
Therefore, business is also a well-known high-reward and high-risk profession.
"Yes, is it you too?" Bruno had a look of surprise on his face. Although there were thousands of people in their caravan, it would make even the big thieves fearful. However, when encountering the situation just now, or having an unfortunate encounter When it comes to some gregarious monsters that have migrated due to the climate, it is definitely a group attack.
The benefits of traveling with Ye Wang and the others are self-evident, but they are afraid that the destination of Ye Wang and these girl knights is not Linhai Lane, or they may dislike them for being too slow in carrying goods.
Seruberia saw what Bruno was thinking at a glance, so she answered before King Ye: "Our Highness is also going to Linhai Lane. If your caravan doesn't mind, we can all go together." She said. I also had my own plans for inviting the other party. Although walking together would be a little slower, the scenery along the way was not bad at all.
Your Highness? Bruno shuddered when he noticed this word. Apart from the royal family, only those in the entire empire who have this honor can only use this word in Academy City, which has almost dominated the sky in the north in the past two years. However, the boy in front of him clearly has black hair and golden eyes. . He was not qualified to see King Ye's portrait, but he had heard that the master of Academy City was a beautiful boy of seventeen or eighteen with black hair and black eyes.
The young man in front of him looks to be around thirteen or fourteen years old at most. Only his black hair is consistent with the rumors.
He made random guesses, no matter what, he couldn't provoke an eighth-level strongman and twenty seventh-level strongmen to respectfully address him as "His Highness", and even the other person could talk to him so harmoniously. It was beyond his expectation.
Afterwards, King Ye said a few perfunctory words before Bruno left in a hurry and told others the news.
The blond girl who was wiping the sword with a handkerchief suddenly asked out of curiosity: "Sister Seruberia, why are we going with them? Won't this delay His Highness's time?" She was left to have breakfast that morning. One of the young girls, during the selection, she was qualified to go to Dragon Island with her superb swordsmanship and her ability to almost reach the eighth level in half a step.
The surrounding girl knights also looked at Serubelia curiously. With their strong physiques trained with secret techniques, and the white horses they rode mixed with the blood of powerful monsters, they could arrive in just seven or eight days. Linhai City, and traveling with this caravan would cost at least half a month.
King Ye held Seluberia's little hand, looked at her heroic and perfect face, smiled as if he had a tacit understanding, and explained aloud: "Seluberia and I once heard someone mention that there was a merchant in the north. A man named Bruno is very popular in Linhai City and knows many navigators of the older generation. Perhaps we can find the nautical charts we need through him."
The day before he left Academy City, two giant ice and snow dragons came from Dragon Island. Both were at the ninth level of peak strength. After formally meeting him in a human way and explaining their purpose, they captured two underage dragons, Yukine and Yukigyou. Back to Dragon Island. Although King Ye was about to get engaged to the little princess of the Black Dragon clan, there was no reason to stop them from bringing back the princess of the Ice and Snow Dragon clan, and they could only watch them leave.
The original plan to let the two sisters Xue Yin and Xue Jing take them to Dragon Island completely came to nothing.
In the past few days, King Ye could not help but maliciously speculate whether this was a test deliberately set by Long Dao for him. Xueyin and Xuejing had spent a lot of time by his side before. At that time, a giant dragon was sent to catch these two naughty ghosts who had run away from home. Who would believe that this was a coincidence?
A sea chart? The girls' eyes lit up, and they no longer had any doubts in their minds. If they could really get the chart from Bruno, it would be worth wasting some time.
Even though the alchemy of this world is very advanced, and even airships that fly freely in the sky were created a hundred years ago, a real sea chart drawn by generations of navigators who spent hundreds of years is still a priceless treasure.
Everyone on this continent knows that there are endless coveted treasures hidden in the ocean, but no one dares to go deep into the depths of the ocean to search for treasures and mysteries. Because in the hundred years since the birth of airships, almost all the airships that dared to fly over the ocean have never come back. Occasionally, the wreckage of airships that crashed on the sea was found empty. No one survived, and not even a body was found.
It was as if it had been eaten in one bite by some invisible and terrifying monster, without leaving even a drop of blood.
Therefore, a real nautical chart records not only routes and wealth, but also forbidden areas that humans cannot set foot on.
"Similarly, it is definitely not easy to get this kind of navigation chart, which requires countless people to die for it, even if they come from Academy City, which covers the sky with one hand in the north of the empire.
?Selubelia understands that as long as they find out the information about the restricted area, they can find Dragon Island in the shortest time. Moreover, King Ye did not spend much time returning from the Forbidden Island last time. This shows that Dragon Island is not far from the mainland, or that the dragons that migrated back then did not dare to go too deep into the ocean.
