Two hundred Auckland knights and one hundred Nolda elven knights, plus a variety of carriages, galloped at high speed and steady pace on the road from Norda to Port Glolen.

The two sides were on the verge of fighting a few days ago, but now they are going hand in hand, making it look like everyone is a good partner who works happily together and fights side by side.

Both sides are fully armed elites with excellent armor, and it is of course difficult to say whether they are the survivors of a hundred battles, but at least they are very aura. The armor on the body, the blades, the battle robes and cloak and even the mounts under the crotch are all superb—the Auckland side is naturally the world-famous Xilin war horse, and the elves have been exaggerated to the point of using unicorns.

This glamorous and flashy appearance is not so much the elite of war, but the nature of the honor guard is more clear.

"This kind of pomp and circumstance always feels a bit deliberate." Blastwind said: "As if I was afraid that everyone would not know what happened to Auckland and Norda." ”

Lu Xi has a different view on this issue.

"It's nothing to be deliberate, or rather, it's at this time that you need to be deliberate. Auckland soldiers are coming to the city, and this kind of thing will definitely not be hidden if you want to hide it, rather than this, it is better to put it out directly. For the top management of both sides, there is a need for a step that can be accepted by everyone. At the very least, it can also reassure the ordinary people who were frightened by Lingu Town that the folk rumors will stay within a controllable range. Auckland and Norda have just had a friendship first-win exercise, and now that the top brass of both sides are swimming together, there is nothing like that. At least diplomatically. Neither side is drunk,"

"Oh, so you're enjoying the show, are you also doing it for diplomatic reasons?" Swift Wind raised his eyebrows, looked at the luxurious furnishings around him, and covered his amusement.

Now, Lu Xi and his friends, in fact, are girls to put it bluntly, and they are naturally in this gorgeous team. However, Lu Xi, who was already "crippled", did not ride a horse, but sat with the girls in a carriage pulled by twelve healthy horses. All of them are the best breed of Felt horses, and they are not much smaller than rhinoceros, but they are artificially cultivated livestock with the blood of phantom beasts, and they are also one of the calling cards of Auckland, the country of knights. It is said that its load and pulling energy are more than ten times that of a normal horse—of course, the relative amount of food is also more than three times, but on the whole, of course, it is earned.

It would be a shame if this animal was only used to pull a carriage. In fact, they were dragging not so much a carriage as a mobile home the size of a two-story bungalow. The Crest Flag of Auckland and the Chlorophyte Flag of Norda were planted on both sides of the carriage, waving in the wind, which naturally represents the long-lasting friendship between the two countries

Looking at the chivalrous figures on both sides, and looking at their tacit unity posture, it is certain that the light of friendship between the Holy Auckland Empire and the city-state of Norda Forest condensed by blood and fire will inevitably shine into the distant future.

What a joy!

Of course, the carriage is sturdy enough to withstand several dragon breaths, and the interior decoration is extremely luxurious, but these are some details that are not worth mentioning.

Lu Xi lay on the soft velvet sofa, hugged his son who was crawling around with his only remaining hand, moved his mouth slightly, and someone forked the fruit and sent it to his mouth. Well, this touch and aroma should be Lim.

"Fear of power and not of Germany is the norm for most people. The Elves and the Knights of Auckland arrived at Gloren Harbor, just a narrow trench away from the nations of Cape Storm. What will those countries think? The Queen of Auckland has the full support of the Norda Elves, and the two are ready to join forces to level the cape? What will the princes of Auckland think? Do you think Karin is doing a show with the elves? As a result, the guy who has jumped out may even lose the will to resist in an instant, and can only close his eyes and wait for death. Those who were originally going to jump would feel that Her Majesty the Empress was even more unfathomable, and might not have any intention of resisting in the future, so they just lay down and pouted their butts and obediently waited for the tune. Speaking of this, Lu Xi couldn't help but pat the son in his arms: "See, little Ellie, meat eaters may not necessarily be despised." Turning bad things into good things, this is a mature and excellent meat eater. ”

"Wow!" Little Alley slapped his little hand directly on his father's face.

"I always feel like you're forcibly explaining, you don't think even Little Alley can fool you."

"Well, actually, I've heard that the Holy Springs royal has such a luxurious trench car, and I want to enjoy it."

"This is not the Royal Sacred Spring, but the Dragher family in the former Dynasty of the Yanlong Dynasty, and the Lawrence III called the 'Strong Seed King' spent a lot of money to build. It is said that more than 80% of the royal family's income was spent that year. Karin laughed, "But I have to admit that although that guy is a famous faint king, this thing is actually quite practical." ”

The former emperor Lawnes III, who was nicknamed quite strongly, was also a well-known king, and his fame did not come from his reign. He ascended to the throne at the age of sixteen, and spent eighteen of his twenty years in the imperial capital of Theloxia. He built more than 100 palaces in scenic spots all over Auckland, and each palace had an average of more than 10 beautiful women with names and surnames. The emperor, who had a fanatical interest in beauty, alcohol, and games of all kinds, spent his life traveling from palace to palace and hunting ground. In order to make his travel more comfortable, he spent a lot of money to build such a mobile palace for himself. He was named "St. Harons" by his father, Harons II, the "Protector of the Saints".

It is said that the interior decoration and facilities are enjoyed to the extreme. Space Magic's well-designed wine cabinet has hundreds of top wines all year round; The second layer of velvet bed is enough for seven or eight beautiful women to roll together. Stagecoaches from all over the empire rode on the finest galloping horses, bringing the freshest local ingredients and playthings to the moving court as quickly as possible.

This poor and extravagant emperor did not make any achievements in national politics, and his extravagant style also brought a great burden to the finances, and completely damaged the atmosphere of the whole country - after all, "the king of Chu has a good waist" is never a special case.

However, because he is said to be a handsome and tall beautiful man, and he also takes great care of all the beauties who have had a relationship, even a wife will give her husband the opportunity to be promoted and make a fortune, and she is also particular about doing things; As a result, in the various fragrant and unglamorous legends and gossip of later generations, his image has always been good, and the appearance rate of all kinds of girls in the "history" published by Neosfia is extremely high, and he has been the protagonist several times, and many little girls have been fascinated by them.

After all, this famous drunken comatose gentleman did not live past the age of forty, but he left at least thirty-five sons and fifty daughters, no matter how you look at this life.

The writing carriage, read as the palace, the St. Harons has become a "holy relic", which has undergone vast historical changes and changed several owners. Later, after it fell into the hands of Emperor Knoeus, it underwent a major transformation, so it awakened the skill...... In short, the expensive wine cabinet was replaced by a bookcase and a reference case, the velvet bed was replaced by a meeting of the city, and the luxurious dining room was replaced by a desk. It can be seen that the pragmatic Founding Monarch of the Holy Springs Emperor clearly wanted to reuse waste and turn the mobile palace into a mobile office.

The courtiers persuaded Emperor Knous to change the name of St. Harons, but the Emperor refused. He felt that it would be too petty to erase the traces of the previous dynasty in this way.

In the pioneering era of the previous generations of royal kings of the Holy Spring, the supreme on the throne of Qingyao would go out of the imperial capital to tour the frontiers of the empire every few years, and they all chose to travel in this famous St. Harons carriage. In that great enterprising era, I don't know how many decrees were issued from this moving throne to all parts of the country......

Now, it seems, that era has come again.

"Well, there is indeed not much room for development in the Gaboa continent, as for Sosnes in the south, after all, it is also a civilized country, and it is half the effort to conquer, and the male lord is in the court, if it is a mediocre lord, he will always surrender and rebel, when will it be a head! However, the New World in the Far West was different. Although there is not even a complete map in the past hundred years, doesn't this mean that it has a lot to offer? In addition, there is the legendary Far East...... It doesn't matter if the land access is blocked by mountains and deserts, but if you can't do it, you can try to find a route from the south of Sosnes. ”

"Hmph, the southern part of Sothness is a dense jungle and swamp, and even the wild elves who live there can't get by." Artoria said in a muffled voice. I probably didn't want to see Karin so proud.

"So, the Nord stupid barbarian who only knows how to gnaw ice in the north just doesn't open his mind! Can't you do it on land, won't you keep looking along the coastline? Hey, then again, I let you take a ride because I saw the little guy in your belly and I'm also the younger sibling of Baby Ellie, but since you're here, you have to learn to be grateful. ”

If this is going to be torn down, the battle situation will be clear at a glance, Lu Xi had to quickly interject: "So, you are officially preparing to form a fleet to explore further south?" ”、

"Yes, the goal is to establish a solid port and supply point on the southern side of the Great Sand Sea of Arabia and the Dagon Rim Sea in Sosnes, in preparation for the exploration of the eastern course. In addition, of course, I will also instruct the colonies of the Western Continent to increase their exploration there. After all, Kalman Jr.'s fiefdom is still there. Hehe, this time he can be regarded as a great contribution. Before that, though, it's time to stabilize the situation at home. ”

"So, are you going to let that smirking big sister completely cool down?" Lu Xi sneered.

"If it was a month ago, I really didn't know the bottom of my heart. However, the ability of the newly formed 14th Army Corps is really refreshing to me, and in this way, the 15th Army Corps, which is still being trained, will also form combat effectiveness within a month. Heh, with this kind of strength, I don't have to think about anything else, I can try to storm the Gro Pass and storm the Dragon Castle. In that case, I'll simply take little Eri to inspect the southern borders of the empire and intimidate the southern princes who did not participate in the civil war, as well as the surrounding countries of Cape Stormstorm and Tatsuhai. Otherwise, why would I have someone drive this St. Harons out? I don't care about myself, but since I'm going to take our little Ellie on a long trip, I can't let her be wronged. ”

You're going to spoil your child. Lu Xi wanted to say this, but felt the cute touch on his shoulder, and the beautiful words of "let the child eat and sleep with you to hone his will" were really unspeakable.

"If the Gro Pass is really lost, it will be a matter of time before Dragon Castle is lost. However, I hope you have a full consideration of the disposition of the Draxley family, after all, it is the mother family of Queen Santa Elena, and there are several generations of marriages with the royal family, and they are relatives of your family. ”

"Ignoring the orders of the imperial capital for nearly two years and sending troops to block the mountain road against the royal family, what else is there to say? Cangyan Ridge, Longshou Cliff, and Lion King Mountain, where griffons are raised, must be ceded to the central direct leader, and the Draxley family is only allowed to keep the gray feather plains that they have passed down from generation to generation. In addition, the lord's immediate standing forces must also be reduced by half. ”

In this way, there is no uniqueness in the griffon army owned by the Grand Duke of Dragoncastle.

Lu Xi nodded, and added: "In addition, the pass checkpoints on the Xihai Avenue and the Cangling Mountain Road leading to the Illist Peninsula must also be managed by the central government, and the garrisons and customs administrators must be appointed. On the other hand, Dragoncastle is entitled to half the tax. In addition, the Qiyao Mine in their territory, as well as the White Bay Harbor, must also be controlled by the central government. This is the limit, and if you don't agree, then go to war until the historic Draxley family is gone. I think that this famous family has not fallen after thousands of years of two dynasties, and I am afraid that it is not all stupid people with iron heads. Of course, as compensation, you can also consider sealing their collateral children who have no right of inheritance in the New World in hindsight. ”

Karin nodded in agreement, then glanced triumphantly at Artoria.

"That smirking big sister must have to tie her arms and accept a fair and just trial. As for the next Grand Duke of Dragoncastle. Hmmm......" Speaking of this, Lu Xi patted Little Ellie who was "cooing" in his arms. He couldn't see each other's eyes now, but he could be sure that his cutie was tilting her head and smiling at her.

"Well, I remember that the youngest member of the Draxley family was the niece of Archduke Teresa, right? A little girl named Cleia, who is said to be a gifted child? ”

"That's true, I've seen that little girl once before, it's really spiritual, and it's a beautiful embryo."

"Let her inherit the throne of the Grand Duke, but she must receive a full education as a lord in Theloxia before she reaches adulthood, and let her be a squire for little Ellie."

"Oh?" Karin pulled her voice and smiled wickedly.

"What a poor little girl, I hope you'll be nice to her......" Tempest sighed lukewarmly. This is the only comment she has on the matter.

Well, son, Dad has found you a superb child daughter-in-law, and then it's up to you. Lu Xi patted Little Eri and continued to be beautiful.

The little baby didn't understand that part of his life trajectory had been decided in this way, and still his father's bald head was more interested, and he was happier with "snapping".

Karin let out a "hey" and threw a smug smile at Artoria once more.

Hmph, barbarian girl, Lu Xi doesn't care so much about your country, right?

Unfortunately, Artoria ate more than twice as much as usual because she was pregnant with a baby, and tilted her head to look at Karin while swallowing the cake, confused for a few seconds, and then suddenly became triumphant.

Are you smug? Karin thought.

I eat and eat, eat and eat poor, eat poor, eat poor! Artoria thought.

"Anyway, that's how the Draxley family goes. It's just that Teresa herself, well...... "Karin should have some headaches."

"That's the case, that smirking big sister may have disappeared sooner rather than later. That kind of lawless guy, not only is he a martial idiot but also has the attribute of shaking S, which is actually quite willful in nature and lacks a sense of responsibility. Territories, people, and even family members shouldn't be bound by this kind of person......" Lu Xi pondered for a moment: "Speaking of which, she is actually your grandmother's disciple, right?" ”

"yes, didn't I say that a long time ago?"

"The relationship between the two is still very good?"

"At least I'm feeling pretty good." Karin whispered.

Lu Xi felt as if he had discovered the truth, but decided not to tell it.

"All in all, the Queen of Auckland and the Crown Prince Seredith inspect the foreign lands to intimidate the princes, so that the people of the Privy Council of the Imperial Capital will not say anything...... If someone really jumps out of my absence, it is just right to let the two legions you helped me build with me, Xiao Luxi, to see blood seriously. Karin paused, glancing at Nicole with a dangerous look, "Well, that's a shame. ”

Niko rolled her eyes, puffing out her mouth and staring at Karin unto be outdone. She tried to make herself look like she was aura, but she was even more childish.

…… Hey, it's not her fault again. What are I angry with a child?

The world's No. 1 Empress looked at Nicole, who was estimated to be hundreds of years away from adulthood, and felt that even if she tore X and won, she really didn't have any sense of accomplishment. She looked at Artoria, who was holding her stomach next to her, not knowing what she was thinking, and thought it would be more interesting to bully this thing.

"So, Nord brute...... Northerners should honestly fish in the lake. The Aucklanders are conquering the seas. She laughed.

"You, you...... I, hmph, I'll organize a sailing team when I go back. Artoria muttered angrily, swallowing a whole piece of cake in front of her.

"Oh, is it? I didn't know that the Nords had a tradition of ocean sailing! How many ships does your navy have? Can a qualified captain find a dozen? Is there a four-figure sailor with ocean experience? ”

With each question, the knight princess's head drooped three points, and her body shrank until it reached the corner of the carriage.

“…… Overall, it is always possible to start cultivating now. She muttered.

"Then you have to be careful, you are really about to start a great voyage, the countries of the Illist Peninsula and the four kingdoms of the Thousand Islands have more geographical advantages than Auckland." Lu Xi interjected to relieve Artoria.

"If they can be unified...... Of course, the world is so big, I don't mind leaving a bone for others to eat. If you agree with this, the bones are actually delicious. Right? ”

Well, if it weren't for the fact that Lu Xi was crippled and pregnant, Artoria would have already fought with Karin at this time. As a result, the entire interior of the St. Harons was suddenly filled with a cheerful atmosphere......

In other words, there must be such a cheerful atmosphere, so that everyone's mood will be a little more comfortable and will not be cranky.

So, because the way of travel is poor and extravagant, and everyone is very happy, even if Lu Xi is disabled, he doesn't feel any discomfort. After a three-day journey, we finally arrived at the port of Gloren.
