Chapter 21: The Golden Canal

【Dream】

Due to excessive blood loss and the hard work of the day, Alice finally fell asleep slowly at nightfall. www.biquge.info In a trance, the thoughts of the dream floated and came to a courtyard. In the courtyard of the dream, it was already late at night, but the leaves of the maple trees in the courtyard were constantly drifting away because of the cold wind of late autumn.

The girl walked on a three-story --- Oriental wooden house, derived from the "T" shaped balcony. He was slowly walking towards the bottom floor of the wooden house, through the floor-to-ceiling windows made of weasel glass. Inside the window, a candle is lit, and a tall young woman knits a sweater next to her.

Yaris: "Mommy, Mommy, where are you?", still a young girl, repeating this sentence over and over again, her eyes glazed and colorless.

At this time, the woman turned her head slightly, and with a poignant smile like the withering of autumn leaves, she said to the young girl:

"Come, Alyse, come here!"

The young girl looked slowly to the left and right, and as she slowly moved forward, she also looked to the sides to watch the wind blow and the leaves fell. Gradually, I finally came to my mother's side.

From the handkerchief wrapped in the mother, she took out a hexagonal crystal that shone with a strange turquoise light. Presented in front of the young girl. Asked in a loving voice:

"Come, Alyse, nestled in her mother's arms. Look at this stone, what do you see?"

Without thinking, the young girl stared at the round gaze and replied sluggishly:

"The green light is crystal clear, like fireflies, and like green snowflakes. ”

The mother smiled slightly and continued:

"Let's take a closer look and use our brains a little more. It's hope, the future of mankind, the hope of the continuation of life!"

・・・・・・

Suddenly, the girl's dream changed again, and the young girl, who did not understand personnel and was sluggish, was frozen by the cold ice into the appearance of a piece of jade, closed her eyes, and slowly sank into the lake of comets with a waterfall with a peaceful sleep・・・・・・

"Twitter"

Bursts of birds and birds chirped in the early morning, and the sun had risen above the sea level. The light of the morning sun sprinkled through the slight gap in the tent and sprinkled it in the quilt, covering Yaris's face with a faint layer of golden sand, and Alice sneezed because of the stimulation of the sun, and then subconsciously stretched out her right hand to cover her forehead. Then, lazily, he lifted the white sheet and sat up.

Dye Yue: "You're awake, Yaris, I can't bear to wake you up when you saw that you were seriously injured yesterday." Now we're all set to go!"

From the gap in the tent, Dye Yue squeezed in with her delicate and slender body, and hugged Alice with a hug, and her face was close to her. The scene of rubbing against each other and ironing is like two masks overlapping each other!

Of course, the two rabbit ears were also excited on their cheeks, fluttering between their hair, and caressing back and forth.

"Okay, okay, Yueyue, I know! You get up first, don't do this"

・・・・・・

The crowd gathered again and headed for the island's "Midsummer Night". As the group progressed deeper into the forest, it lasted about three hours. Finally through the forest, in front of ushering in an open field, and in the middle of the field, there is a river that is not inferior to the "Amazon", the flow, the momentum, especially magnificent, huge, therefore, known as the "golden channel".

It is said that this river was a channel into the sea that connected the ocean in the primeval era when the gods created the planets to shape, divide, and reorganize the contours of the continents, leaving a gully in the geological formation. At the same time, on both sides of the coast, in the long history of thousands of years, various ethnic groups and towns of all sizes have been formed, which is conducive to material turnover and convenient for commercial gatherings.

Jacaret: "Attention, everyone, we have reached the "Golden Channel", which is named after the development of the shipping trade. Naturally, it is also targeted by various bandit groups from within the Empire. So we're going to be extra careful!"

Yakalet, worthy of being the commander of the future "King's Army", grasped the key points concisely and concisely, like people recounting the possible "danger", on the other hand, he pulled out his magic spear, like a close attendant protecting the emperor in the palace, full of vigilance, and even turned his eyebrows with murderous intent, patrolling everything around him.

Jacaret continued, "As you can see, there are many fleets in the basin, and there are also merchant ships protected by strong mercenaries. I will show my identity token symbolizing the royal city, and we will board a cargo ship and sail with them to our destination with their force. ”

Everyone: "Yes, okay!", said in unison・・・・・・

Standing on the deck of the sailboat, blowing the sea breeze from hundreds of kilometers away, Alyss remembered the scene from yesterday's dream, and couldn't help but shiver a few indescribable shivers.

Chenxing: "Huh? Alyss looks a little scared, or is she thoughtful?"

Sitting cross-legged on the wooden deck, Chenxing didn't think much about it, but instinctively felt a hint of discord in Aris's expression, and blurted out in a casual manner.

Dye Yue: "What?Chenxing, what are you talking about, Chenxing?Although Yariss was saved by you, I know that she is actually a very brave person!"

Yakalet: "No, Lord Dyzuki, with all due respect, I was vaguely aware from the beginning that Alice probably really had something in mind!"

Chenxing: "Do you notice it too? It seems that the two of us didn't necessarily get along before!"

Yakaret: "Ever since I was young, not only my family, but also the Sect King, have always cultivated me as a future commander, so I have come into contact with all kinds of people, and I can accurately understand their words and deeds. I feel that things are not as simple as they seem!

And your ideas have confirmed my speculation! Let's be more vigilant!"

Even on the cargo ship, which was protected by mercenaries, Yakaret didn't seem to be negligent, covering the magic gun tightly with his right hand, his palm constantly rubbing against the metal rod, and the sweat gradually seeped out of his palm, causing himself: even if he increased his grip, it was not very compact, and it seemed slightly lubricated, and his body was leaning back like this, leaning against the corner of the cabin.

Ruhl Jones: "The final destination is just the island "Midsummer Night", it's almost there, I don't think it's that difficult! No matter how cunning the enemy is, he can get there right away! Just keep an eye out for it again!"

Ruhr Jones choked up as he chewed on the boar leg that had been prepared in the morning and had not yet had time to finish it.

Jacalette: "No, Ruhr Jones! The more attractive something is, the more it will be targeted by all kinds of people, who will choose to strike when you think you can sit back and relax! And it's not clear what kind of person the other party is, what kind of magic it can do!

"Boom, boom"

Originally, it was still on the wide surface of the river, which was rippling blue waves and fine waves like scales, when suddenly there was a loud explosion sound, and a huge wave of waves rose from the water, and it struck towards the merchant ship with overwhelming momentum.

"Mercenary magician, thieves are coming, quickly set up a defensive magic array!" An old man with a beard who seemed to be the captain of the ship, after hearing the explosion, based on his years of sailing experience, was the first to react accordingly with his instinctive consciousness that had penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and ordered to the dozens of mercenaries on the ship.

As soon as the old man's words fell, dozens of mercenaries immediately rushed to the bow of the ship, and in front of them, with skillful strokes, they outlined a red pentagram magic array with a radius of more than ten meters.

However, because the power of the huge wave was too strong, the merchant ship was shocked backwards by more than ten meters, and at the same time, some small cracks had begun to appear in the protective shield because of this blow, and there was still a small splash of water, which overflowed and splashed onto the deck!

Jakalet: "Hurry up, be vigilant, use the "empty cloth", and escape from this ship! The enemy is coming at us specifically! The reason is that in this big river, there is a fleet of more than 20 merchant ships, and they chose our fleet to attack! Moreover, I learned in advance about this cargo ship, which is full of sandalwood materials, although precious, but these woods are numerous in number, and the weight is not small, if there is no means of transportation, it is not easy to be taken away, and at the same time, it cannot be directly converted into money!

Therefore, it is impossible for the thieves to attack this ship! If we continue to stay on this ship, we will not only be injurious to the rest of the fleet, but we will also be unable to carry out it! Quickly retreat to shore!"

Jacaret made a quick decision, with the investigation of the facts themselves, the astonishing judgment he showed, and the incomparable thinking and scheming of ordinary people, and gave orders to the crowd in the tone of a commander, and the crowd did not think too much, and obeyed his instructions, intentionally or unintentionally, and immediately dodged to the shore.

Sure enough, as soon as everyone came ashore, the caravan's attack stopped. At this time, from the churning splash of the water, a figure appeared, and as the mist gradually dissipated, people clearly saw his appearance: the hair on his head was tied into a bunch, hanging on the back of his head like a crescent moon, and a magic array rose from under his feet, standing on the surface of the water, holding a bright smile, and replied to everyone:

"Everyone, welcome to the Goldchannel
