Chapter 44: Payne
At the foot of a mountain peak in the middle of the Demacian Empire, at this time, a team of horses like a long snake is winding up this mountain. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"After climbing this Mithril Peak at our feet, we are about to reach our destination, the Imperial Capital." Directly in front of the horse team, a young woman in a black power suit pointed to the top of the hill in front of her and said to the people behind. Her tone was gentle and cold, but it still revealed a hint of exhaustion and joy. However, it is clear that after so many days of travel, anyone who arrives at their destination may be in a good mood.
And Lu Fei, who was behind her, couldn't help but touch his buttocks that were sitting on horseback when he heard this, and his expression was obviously a little painful.
However, he was helpless, after all, in his previous life, as a son of Jiangnan Water Town, he no longer had much opportunity to come into contact with this kind of horse that is rarely used in modern times. And because he is a typical otaku, he has never ridden at all. Riding the black steed from the stables of Silversea City this time had already torn his ass to pieces.
However, he was glad that the horses he had raised were a hybrid of ordinary horses and unicorns, which were more stable, and that they had a more gentle temper than ordinary horses. Otherwise, with his foot-picking riding skills, he might have fallen off the horse and eaten.
"Damn, it's only taken so much hard to get here. I'm going to have to eat a big meal today. Goblin Rondo, who was riding a jujube red horse beside Lu Fei, said through gritted teeth while touching his belly.
However, Lu Fei looked at his two little short legs that couldn't step on the saddle at this time, and felt a little funny. So he habitually touched his nose and said with a smile: "Rondo, I heard Vayne say that this Mithril City is the top big city in the entire Valoran Continent, and because the Demacian Empire believes in peace and freedom, it is open to any friendly race in this world. So tell me if you'll meet a goblin clan here that you haven't seen in a hundred years. ”
Listening to Lu Fei's words, Rondo's originally excited and expectant expression suddenly became embarrassed. Looking down at the black skin on his body again, Rondo sighed even more dejectedly: "The skin on my body was originally no different from a normal goblin, it was red, but since I was enslaved by Calista, I was forced to live on Shadow Island for a hundred years, so my entire body was polluted and assimilated by the dark energy of Shadow Island, and finally even my skin became completely different from that of ordinary goblins."
Speaking of this, Rondo touched his hairstyle with his hand with a few hairs, and said with a sad expression: "Hey, I was originally handsome and chic in the entire tribe, but now I may not be favored by too many girls of the same clan." No way, the years always urge people to grow old, Rondo, I may have passed the age of that sister. ”

Well, there really isn't much in common with this mentally handicapped chat. So Lu Fei, who couldn't stand it, turned his head to the other side again, and looked at a young man who was riding on another horse at this time, looking a little sad at this time.
Looking at his obviously unrelenting expression, Lu Fei sighed softly and said with a concerned expression: "Payne, don't think about those things that have passed. After all, your uncle also died for the glory of the empire, so he also died a well-deserved death. And you, as the only surviving seedling of your James family, should no longer grieve overly over their deaths, but turn pain into strength. Fight hard to restore the glory of your James family in your hands once again. ”
That's right, this young man is the nephew of the city defense officer Karn, who died heroically in the defense of Silversea City, Payne James. As for why he was in the horse team of Lu Fei and others, it had to start from a few days ago.
It is said that since Lu Fei and the others set off from Silversea City, they have been moving straight in the direction of the imperial capital Mithril City. In order to reach the imperial capital Mithril City as quickly as possible.
And when the group arrived at another city they passed, they found that at the gate of that city stood a young man dressed in the uniform of a low-ranking officer of Demacia, his eyes had been fixed on the location of Silver Sea City, and from the anxious God he revealed, it could be seen that he must be extremely anxious at this time.
So with curiosity, Lu Fei and the others were ready to ask him the reason. However, before they could ask, the pro-young man rushed towards them like crazy, grabbed Wayne's horse with his hand, and asked anxiously.
"Are you from Silversea City? How's Silversea City doing? There's a city guard there's a city guard named Karn, Karn James, and you know he's still alive? ”
Listening to his words, Wayne, who was already intelligent, instantly understood the reason for his anxiety.
So Wayne jumped off the horse and said softly to him with a solemn expression: "You should be an officer in Silversea City, I am an envoy of the Empire, my name is Wayne Dominic. I don't know why you're here, but I'm going to tell you seriously that Silversea City has been rescued by us. ”
Hearing Vayne's words, Payne's expression was obviously more excited, and even nervously grabbed Vayne's hand directly regardless of the suspicion of men and women, and the force of the pinch made Wayne frown secretly.
However, Vayne didn't say anything about it after all, but continued with a sympathetic face: "But I'm sorry to tell you that before we arrived in Silversea City, Silversea City had already fallen once, and all the soldiers of the Demacian Empire stationed in it had been slaughtered by the Fish-People and pirates. So that uncle of your defense officer may have died heroically for the glory of the Empire. ”
Obviously, Wayne's words were a huge blow to Payne, and even at this time, this usually heroic and tenacious man lowered his headache and cried.
However, after crying, Payne chose to follow Wayne and the others, preparing to follow them to Mithril City to learn advanced martial arts, so as to avenge the death of all the people of Silversea City.
"I know, Brother Lu Fei, you don't have to worry about me." On horseback, Payne listened to Lu Fei's words and did not secretly grieve alone, but looked at Lu Fei and smiled peacefully.
Obviously, it seems that Lu Fei and Payne have had some good friendships after getting along for a while. After all, for Lu Fei, he still likes this upright, brave, resolute and tenacious officer of the same age.
And at this moment, Lu Fei and the others finally reached the top of this Mithril Peak. I saw a roar from the giant eagle that Quinn had turned into in the sky, and then ignored everyone, just turned into a streamer, like a crazy shot out from the other side.
Wayne also looked at the mountain with enthusiasm at this time: "Everyone, our imperial capital Yinhai City has arrived!"
