Chapter 33: Leaving Billy City
After resting at noon, Keith Swordsman and his party led their horses to the north gate of Billy City under the leadership of Master David.
For the knights, the three of them, Armor, Hale and Eddie, are royal guards and knights, and they are very accustomed to it, but for the rural Waiguli, it is the first time!
(There is a strong sense of "Metamorphosis", the rural baby can play when it experiences the city, and the city baby experiences the world without demolition...... )
The mercenary armor that Iguli wore before was just a part of metal armor on the basis of leather armor in important heart and joint parts, but even if it was ordinary leather armor, it was so advanced for "rural children", and wearing mercenary armor made Iguli excited for several days!
You must know that in the village, when my father went to the outskirts of the forest to cut wood, he only wore a linen shirt, and Iguli also wore a linen shirt since he was a child......
Not to mention horseback riding, a creature that Baron Lauren had only seen for the first time when he sent his knights to invite his father to build a chair, and it was not something that Igul's family could afford, and there was no need for them to raise horses......
Fortunately, there were several horses that had been captured long before he left the dark forest, and under the rough and rough tutelage of Wolf, Iguli learned how to steer a horse like a nobleman "easily and happily" after being thrown countless times and being kicked in the abdomen and shoulder several times!
The two of them who taught and learned this time naturally stunned the friends who were watching, and they were secretly furious when they saw Iguli so durable ♂ and indifferent, and they were not so worried about putting such a dangerous task on the "weakest" Iguli......
And the test of this mission for Iguli is more to disguise himself as His Highness Wells, who is trapped in the summoning counterattack and is powerless to resist.
The first point of this test is to act like a member of the royal family, and the method is also very simple, that is, in combination with the state of deep backlash, don't talk casually, don't behave first and follow the other three, don't look at the new and don't look at the novelty, and leave the rest to the Keith swordsman to act on the opportunity.
The second, last, and most important point of the test is the control of power!
From the way and speed of Iguli's advancement, you can know how fast his strength is, and his "sparring" has always allowed him to completely let go of his hands and feet and let go of his strength to attack and play, so you can imagine how mentally draining it is for Iguli to disguise himself as a sick girl under the eyes of a great swordsman!
It's like when riding a horse, if Iguli gets on the horse without any effect, it will definitely have to be a goof, and this must be helped by Keith Swordsmith's guard...... It's not over yet, you still have to ride a horse, you have to pretend to be sick, how pale and cold sweat you have to force out, all of this is knowledge, you need control!
This "teaching" process is naturally also a burst of chickens and eggs, the friends are already numb, before leaving the forest to release the horsemen in two ways, Iguli combined with many days of "observation and learning", has been able to disguise himself as a sick girl very well, and the rest will be tested under the nose of Master David.
"For the sake of the disciples", Wolf Dashi thinks that Iguli, who has just broken through to the swordsman, is not suitable for exercising as before, and that it is necessary to let Zhihai absorb enough magic elements, and the control of the body is also very important.
(Do you see that??The effect is like Uncle Wolf!)
Therefore, the profound experience of the body, the opening up of the sea of knowledge, the collection of magic power, and the control of the exercise of the body are all three, and they are indispensable, and always disguise under the nose of the great swordsman can also sharpen the spirit, and Wolf is well-intentioned.

"Ambassador Keith, Ambassador Hall, Ambassador Eddy, and Ambassador Iguli, we will be out of the city soon, and we will not arouse suspicion in our dress, and we will try to maintain this speed in order to take care of Ambassador Iguli, but we can't let our guard down, understand?" Master David said inside the gate of the City Lord's Mansion before leaving, thinking in his heart that Iguli was just an ordinary pseudonym......
"Okay, everything is under the command of Master David, and in case of leaks, the master doesn't have to call us ambassadors, what do you think?" said Keith Sword Master with a low brow.
Sure enough, this hit the place where Master David, who loved vanity, was unhappy before, and he lowered his head to those shrimps, and his eyes narrowed slightly with joy, "Okay, let's go to the north gate and go out of the city first!"
A group of five knights dressed up, led by Master David, who was still in the bag, with dark red diamond-studded armor and swords, leading a high-headed white horse, at a glance, he knew that the city lord was going out on a mission, and the surrounding traders and mercenaries who entered and exited Billy City were not surprised, obviously this situation was very common, and the arrangement of the city lord of Richard was also very proper!
Keith looked at the two people who were leaning on the wall of the north gate and were talking, the young man also looked at him "curiously", wiped his hair with his left hand, as if he had an ordinary hairstyle, and the young man also wiped it "curiously", and then turned his head and continued to chat with the middle-aged man who looked like "father".
Master David also saw the situation, smiled and didn't pay any more attention, and didn't notice that the person who always had his back to him was one of the only two great swordsmen in Billy City, Voff!
Hall and Eddie also smiled as easily as Keith, only Igul, who had always pretended to be very hard and worried about the goof, saw that Master David had noticed their exchange, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and Master David, who had always been paying attention to Iguli (mainly because he was afraid that he would burp halfway), at first he thought that this highness was not in good health, and he felt good, but now he found that he even sweated out, and completely let go of his doubts......
Out of the city, on horseback, into the forest.
Between the city of Billy and the main city of Tessali are a few hills. The small forest area and the largest inland lake in the kingdom, Laika Lake, is 400 kilometers away in a straight line, and the caravans generally choose to start from the West Gate and bypass the west side of Laika Lake to reach the city of Tessali, there are more plains and swamps to go at least 1200 kilometers, at least you can get supplies through some villages, but the time is too long, the speed of the caravan to pull goods can be 20 kilometers a day is the limit, it takes two months to travel, five people can ride a horse in the plains, of course, it will take 20 to 24 days to ride a horse to 60 kilometers a day!
Please don't ask the question of whether a horse can run 100 kilometers in a day. Let's not mention that there is a disguised patient in the team, and we don't mention whether people should rest and eat and drink in the middle of the process, but they will run at the top speed for a few days without changing one horse and one horse...... You even want to run for a few days?!
And the second road is the road suitable for the knights, with a total length of 500 kilometers and a small mountain road and forest road on the east bank of Lake Laika, which can be reached in 6 days if it is expedited at full speed, and the current situation of the squad will take 10 days.
...... However, if the caravan took this road, plus the goods would have to travel for 25 days to a month, it was not very safe to walk through the mountain road with bandits and wild beasts, and there were no habitable villages to replenish, so the rations to be carried were considered...... Do you want to do business anymore?!
Of course, nothing is absolute, and it's a different story if you're shipping expensive luxuries.
