The cold feeling still surrounded her body, and occasionally there was an unbearable boiling, and the smiling face that belonged to the snow spirit phantom ice also disappeared on her original face with Duan Qing's departure and her body falling again. Gritting her teeth hard, she endured the discomfort, and then continued to use her will to support her body against the corner of the carriage, and an inexplicable feeling of dizziness then hit her whole body, suddenly interrupting her original desire to look out of the window.

Her gaze swirled to the bottom of the wood, and she panted slightly to close her heavy eyelids.

"Hooray!"

The deafening cheers, the ocean of welcome that surrounded the body, the atmosphere so warm that it could bake people to the sky, then surrounded the body of the snow spirit phantom ice, outlining a grand picture between the incomparably clear heaven and earth. Looking at the welcoming road in front of her, which was sandwiched in a straight line by the crowd, Xue Ling's originally pale face became more and more pale, and the symptoms of cold and heat then transformed into an unreal sense of drifting, and with the slogans chanted behind her, she hugged forward: "Your Majesty! Please go into town! ”

“……”

The body then seemed to become less like herself, and the right arm located in the snow spirit phantom ice field of vision then raised itself, and the calmness that was completely different from the surrounding atmosphere then penetrated her thoughts, and she shook in front of her with the clenched fist: "So...... This is the beginning of a new era. ”

"It's okay, then let's abandon the past first."

The dazzling bright red appeared on the surface of the fist in the cheers of the sky, as if the energy flow of the same color as the blood then rushed into the clear sky with her outstretched arms, and the scarlet breath then pulled the loud shouts of a large number of soldiers behind her, and flew towards the end of the distance that was greeted by the crowd in a torrent. It was like a huge mark that cut through the sky, then ran through the entire blue background, and finally fell on the silhouette of a faintly visible city at the end of the road, which seemed to have just been built, and then mixed with the red energy in countless enthusiastic cheers, and the earthy yellow walls were then dyed as bright red as blood: "This is the new country, the country that belongs to me...... Oh, let's go. ”

"Let's go to a new future."

Bang!

The dazzling light rose in the center of the city as the red light gradually wore off, and then expanded into a bright pillar of light that took up almost the entire sky, and the enthusiastic voices of the people who cheered at those lights gradually blurred in the ears of Snow Ling's Phantom Ice, and finally disappeared in front of her along with these strange visions. The familiar and unfamiliar scene of the carriage then returned to her field of vision, and at the same time restored the alternating feeling of hot and cold that became clear again, and the eyes of the white-haired woman who was constantly wheezing were slightly wrinkled, and finally with that pale countenance, she looked in the direction that the convoy was moving away from at this time: "Original...... That's where Redkar's red comes from, but—"

But why? Why am I seeing these?

Why do I keep seeing these strange visions?

Is this the after-effects of a character's injury? Still is......

No, no, I'm not taking psychic enhancers anymore, and that bastard isn't here either, so the psychic phenomenon shouldn't be able to trigger it......

"Speaking of which, I think I've seen similar visions in the past."

Trying her best to stabilize her emotions, Xue Lingbing muttered to herself, and then she also lay back in the corner of the carriage again, staring blankly at the ceiling of the carriage: "Those scenes at that time don't seem to have any connection with the surroundings, but those scenes are obviously happening on this road to Redkar - wait." ”

"Is it ......?"

She put away her muttering, and there was a look of realization in her eyes, as if sensing a possibility, and then returned to the front of the carriage, quietly meeting Violet, who had been staring at her. The sound of the wheels rolling forward echoed around the white-haired woman with a bumpy feeling, accompanied by arguments and pushes, which were gradually amplified in the rhythmic sound of horses' hooves, and finally transformed into the voice of Duan Qing, who was very familiar to her: "...... That's why we're very busy now, and we don't have time to follow you to these things that you won't even explain clearly. ”

"Haven't we made it clear yet? As long as you follow us, you will know what we have commissioned. ”

"I'm sorry, the members of our team are all seriously injured at the moment, whether it's following you or helping you complete any commissions or anything, we can't do it right now."

"Nonsense! The Rock Bear Army and the royal guards of Her Royal Highness Princess Rena have driven away all those unknown enemies! And in the middle of nowhere, a few days away! You've been at the back of the pack, how could you be attacked? ”

It seemed that he finally couldn't help but refute Duan Qing's words, and the captain of the Imperial Guard, who was confronting him, rebuked loudly: "Didn't you claim that your members were injured? Get out of the way, let's check it out. ”

"They're all resting right now, and it's really not a good place to disturb."

Duan Qing, who was still blocking the door of the carriage and seemed to have lost patience in the previous negotiations, replied expressionlessly: "Of course, if there is anything unclear, you can just ask me, and I will answer them for you one by one." ”

"You? Which green onion are you? The soldier captain obviously raised his voice a few points: "Who are you from the Qingling Adventure Regiment?" Can you represent the Soul Adventure Party? ”

"I'm Linyuan Broken Water, and I'm currently from the Qingling Adventure Group...... Menfan. Duan Qing's straightforward voice obviously paused: "Of course, what is taking on the role of a coachman is now. ”

“…… Hmph, you look like the kind of person who can only be a janitor. The captain on the war horse looked Duan Qing's appearance up and down, and seemed to have assessed the other party's level in this way: "Get out of the way, if you really cause any trouble, a weak person like you can't bear it at all." ”

"Woe? What do you want to do? ”

"We are now looking for any suspicious figures in connection with the attack."

As if he had finally bared his fangs, the captain's voice became cold and serious: "Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess has made it clear that this attack is definitely not untargeted, either they have other purposes, or there is an internal response lurking in this investigation team." ”

"I suspect you guys right now." He pointed at Duan Qing's nose and sprayed spit on the gray-robed magician's face at the same time: "I claim to have been attacked by an impossible person, and I refuse to make the so-called wounded public...... If you don't cooperate with our inspection, I'll be sure of your suspicious identity! ”

"To be injured is to be injured, what else is there to explain this?"

The indifferent voice then sounded behind Duan Qing, temporarily suppressing the rebuttal words he wanted to say again, and the figure belonging to Gedemayne then appeared at the door of the carriage, and the upper body wrapped in layers of bandages then slowly pushed Duan Qing's back away: "In the end, I just don't believe in our strength...... Do you have to show our corpses before you that you will believe us? ”

“…… Are you a shield warrior? Looking at the heavy shield in the other party's hand, the captain's face changed slightly: "It does look very powerful, but ...... When did this wound remain? ”

"Of course it was just now." Pointing to the blood stains on the surface of the bandages, Gedmayne explained impatiently: "Look at the blood, it's still fresh!" I can't just slash myself to cheat, can I? ”

"So, you did experience a battle here?" The soldier's captain's eyes flickered back and forth for a while: "Who is the enemy?" What does it look like? Can you describe it to us? ”

"It's a bunch of black monsters."

Blocking what Gedmayne wanted to say next, Duan Qing chuckled a few times at the group of guards who were eyeing him: "It looks like a monster made of various beast body parts, not only has a strong ability to move, but also has a high combat effectiveness...... It hardly looks like a product of this world. ”

“…… Sure enough, they are. Holding his chin and groaning for a while, the hesitation in the soldier's captain's eyes became even thicker: "It's indeed the same as the previous report, but ...... Well, you mean you've fought against those enemies before? How could they attack this place? ”

"They must have used some kind of magic that we didn't know about, and we didn't notice any signs before." Duan Qing replied in a low voice, "And...... I'm guessing you don't notice anything, do you? ”

“…… That's right, the case of these monsters is peculiar. Looking at Duan Qing's face with slanted eyes, the soldier captain nodded extremely slowly: "If that's really the case, then it's a miracle that you didn't die." ”

"But...... Now that your rhetoric is in line with the actual situation, there is something about what is known about the situation. He ignored the black lines on the faces of Duan Qing and Gedeman, turned around and rode his horse towards the front of the convoy: "I need to report to Your Highness." ”

"You're waiting here for me."

The sound of the horse's hooves then gradually disappeared as the group of Imperial soldiers moved away, leaving only Duan Qing and Gedmayne looking at each other, until the speed of the entire investigation team tended to accelerate with the appearance of several shouts, and they ended looking at each other: "It seems that it is over." ”

"Unexpected circumstances...... Did they really intend to treat us as criminals in the first place? ”

"It's also possible that they came over and wanted to provoke a conflict, and then framed our people, after all, something like that just happened in the imperial capital, and there must be a large number of enemies mixed with those nobles......"

"Are you referring to the Chancellor's family? They do have a reason to do so, but if they are, it just means that they may have something to do with the people who attacked us......"

The sound of discussion gradually subsided, accompanied by the figure belonging to Duan Qing who opened the curtain again and approached the interior of the carriage, and then looked for a while in the carriage, and then quickly landed on the Xue Lingphantom Ice who was looking at him with wide eyes: "Why did you get up?" Aren't your injuries serious? ”

"They're gone?" Pulling the blanket on his body hard, Xue Lingphantom Bing sat down in his seat with a pale face: "Do you want to take advantage of this opportunity to calculate us?" ”

"I don't know, I've sent them away anyway." Holding the other party's waist and placing it aside, Duan Qing then replied with a smile: "It's really tiring to be the janitor of your family, not only to deal with all kinds of trivial matters in the team, but also to help you solve the trouble of finding the door." ”

"Don't use the word 'you' and act like you're an outsider." pursed his mouth with a dissatisfied face, but then there was a slight smile in Xue Ling's eyes: "And I see that you didn't handle it very well, those unknown soldiers fled in disgrace." ”

"No matter who comes to us for trouble, we just do our part."

Rolling his eyelids, Duan Qing then pulled the blanket on the other party's body up by two points again: "It was His Majesty the Emperor who hired us, and it was not someone in this investigation team, if someone blames us for not obeying orders or something, then let them go to the Emperor for their own theory." ”

"But our strength is really weak." Xue Lingphantom Blinked her eyes: "Don't talk about our wounded and sick people, you, the janitor, are still at the level zero now...... What about going to find a mission upgrade? ”

"In the current situation, I'm afraid that if I go out to find a mission, I will die without a body." Duan Qing smiled bitterly and pinched his cheeks: "Wait for this period of time to pass, if it really doesn't work, I will apply to hunt for the convoy and use the experience of wild monsters to make up for it...... Not. ”

"That Ivorst shouldn't be coming back, right? At least not so soon. He showed a hint of concern: "If it really doesn't work, there are still Maggie and Violet." ”

"We can't always protect you like we did."

Finally made her own voice, and Violet, who had been sitting next to her without speaking, then pulled the corners of her mouth: "Maggie must have been trapped in the illusion world of Ivorst once, so she could only break free and return to the convoy before he could find it, and I am out of the range of Redcar, and the leylines in that imperial capital can no longer be used by me." ”

"With my own strength, I might be able to draw with that Mr. Ivorst." She narrowed her eyes and looked at the faces of Duan Qing and Xue Lingphantom Ice at the same time: "But his target is you, with my current level of magic power...... I can't promise to protect you all the time. ”

"Uh, that's it......"

"I agree with Miss Xue Ling's Phantom Ice, you should first find a chance to experience the experience."

Interrupting Duan Qing's words, Violet then raised a smile on the corner of her mouth: "Our protection is only a temporary expedient measure, if you want to truly solve this threat, only your own strength can be improved-"

She suddenly stopped her words, then turned her head to look out the window, and Duan Qing and the others, who noticed this anomaly, then also moved their eyes to the sky outside the convoy, taking into their eyes the sparse blades of grass and a faintly passing river at the end of the wilderness.
