Summer is always a little faster than most people expect, and as soon as the end of September passes, the cool cold air hits the Wangu Glacier region in the north, and the entire northern part of the Fernand continent will enter the cold season for half a year.

People in the south will be glad they were born here, and in September, they will be able to enjoy the cool autumn mood that is characteristic of the South, rather than the extreme climate of the North Land.

On an avenue large enough for four carriages to move side by side, several figures were staggering. They walked along the side of the road, carefully avoiding the menacing carriages that were speeding in the middle of the road.

"Tuk-tuk, tuk-tuk!"

In the pouring rain, there was the familiar sound of a car rolling on the muddy ground behind them.

A tall, cloaked man hurriedly protected a skinny girl behind him.

The carriage drove past them in a haughty manner, splashing dirt mixed with cold rain and smashing down on the man's cloak.

The girl glanced at the other gratefully and whispered, "Thank you." ”

"You're welcome, you two were introduced by Master Duran, and besides, I'm not doing your business for nothing, but your father paid double the escort salary." The man in the cloak smiled heartily, and the group moved on.

"It's a pity that the carriage on the road broke down, otherwise we would have arrived in Cordo." After a while, the man spoke to himself.

The girl blinked her eyes and showed a look of yearning: "Mr. Simodo, is Cordo really as legendary as there are endless sailing ships?" ”

Simodo smiled: "Of course, Cordo is a port with the reputation of a sailing city, although it is not as good as the big ports in the north, but it is also very important in the south." ”

"So where can I see the sea?" Ricky asked, somewhat excitedly.

Simodo nodded: "Of course." ”

The girl was just about to continue asking, when the old knight's voice suddenly sounded from the front: "Enough, Ricky, don't ask again." Mr. Simodo is also tired, and when you get to Cordo you will naturally see the sea. ”

Ricky stuck out his tongue at Simodo and stopped talking.

After a while, the old knight said meaningfully, "Soon we will arrive in Cordo, and when the time comes, we and Mr. Simodo will also part ways." Thank you so much for your care along the way. ”

Simodo said, "You're welcome. ”

Ricky's face showed a look of loss. The old knight couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw it.

They heeded Duran's advice and fled the outskirts of Grand Pudding City, all the way to the fork of the River Thorns in the east. There, they followed Duran's instructions to find Simodo and the others, who, as Duran said, took on the task of escorting him and Ricky to Cordo, the city of sailing ships, and did a good job.

"The section of the road from the fork of the Thorn River to Cordo, the average little nobleman would not dare to go on the road alone, but this group of people actually walked over like this. We encountered three bandits, seven robbers, and half a dozen thieves and crooks along the way, but all of them were unharmed so far, except for the original carriage when the horses were poisoned and had to walk, the escort mission was simply seamless! The old knight thought slowly as he walked: "Such a result, even if you pay double the salary, it is worth it." ”

"It's just that these people aren't waiting for idle goods!" The old man thought in his heart, and his gaze swept over the group.

Needless to say, Simodo was tall, as if he had barbarian blood, and he was at the forefront of every battle, and ordinary bandits and bandits were no match for him at all. His strength is close to the peak of the silver stage, and he may break through at any time; Another taciturn veteran, who seems to be named Jamal, is very experienced, and if it weren't for him along the way, I'm afraid that the whole group would have been poisoned and attacked several times during the night; And the young guy who led the wolf, although he was very jerky at the beginning, but he began to adapt to this kind of life halfway through the journey, and his performance was getting better and better, obviously the plastic surname was very strong.

As for the tall guy at the end, who was shrouded in a pitch-black cloak, the old man couldn't guess his origin for the time being. The only time that guy made a move was when he encountered a group of more powerful bandits, and the leader of that group of bandits had about the strength of the silver peak, which was on par with Simodo.

At that time, a lot of strange things suddenly appeared out of this cloak. There's ice arrows, there's fireballs, and there's acid. Judging by the old man, this guy must be a warlock or a mage, and he is very powerful.

"Such a group of people don't look like ordinary mercenaries." Although the old man is not smart, he still has experience.

Obviously, these people, like that Duran, are dangerous characters. Since this is the case, the old knight can naturally push these people to Cordo not to escort themselves, but for another purpose.

"Anyway, it's better to keep Ricky away from them, these people are not good people." A hint of worry flashed in the old knight's gaze.

The team continued to move forward, the road was still muddy, and the light rain was still dripping.

……

"I thought that the leader of the black-clad people would never take care of me again if he left me here as a weak woman."

Chloe leaned against the window, her loose pajamas not tightened, and naturally revealed a confession.

"I'm curious, how did you find me??" Duran silently fell from the big tree in the courtyard, and his body was extremely light.

Now he is not the boy who desperately fled under the pursuit of the lord's guard in the early days, and it is extremely easy for the assassins of the golden realm to enter and exit Bergen Manor.

"I've recently awakened a new ability to communicate with a new creature." Chloe smiled sweetly.

Duran nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly pointed to a small squirrel in the tree and asked, "It's this little guy." ”

Chloe nodded briskly, she had nothing to hide from Duran.

"Duran, I told you last time that as the lord of White Sands Town, I am now under more and more pressure." Chloe said: "Those guys with real power have actually been suspicious of me for a long time, but they have received enough benefits and have not leaked them. But if this continues, I always feel that one day it will be revealed. ”

Duran nodded and said, "I know, so tomorrow night, I will take you away." ”

"Where?" Chloe's eyes lit up.

"Go to a newborn territory, where you can sleep peacefully, without anyone and any enemies." Duran said softly.

Chloe shook her head and said, "I don't believe that there is such a land on the continent of Feinan?" ”

Duran said, "I didn't say it was on the Fernand continent. ”

A strange look flashed in Chloe's eyes: "I can't see through you more and more." Are you still the cautious Duran? ”

Duran approached and changed the subject: "Anyway, I now invite you to become the consul of my new territory, but you have to be mentally prepared, the new territory is much more difficult to govern than White Sands Town." ”

"It doesn't matter." Chloe smiled, "As long as you can get out of this place, you can go anywhere." ”

"Thank you." Duran said.

"You're welcome, that's what I promised you." Chloe stroked her hair lightly: "You killed Andrew, I'll do things for you, it's fair." ”

"So what's next? You won't come to Baisha Town empty-handed this time, will you? The girl asked smartly.

Duran nodded, "Indeed, I still need your help with something." ”

"Tomorrow night, a large number of people will pass by the vicinity of Baisha Town, and I am afraid that they will attract the attention of some people."

"So I need your help to drag down the high-ranking people of all the forces in White Sands."

Chloe thought for a moment, then nodded slowly.

……

The rain finally subsided, and a small hill protruded on the empty road.

The group stood up the hill with tired faces, and the endless plain scenery fell into their eyes.

In the distance, countless white sails were hoisted high, ships entered the harbor in an orderly manner, and the noisy sound of trade could be heard from afar.

A majestic city sits there, quietly swallowing the flow of people.

"Is this the city of sails, Cordo?" A look of confusion flashed in Ricky's eyes.

"Yes, dear, here we are." The old knight let out a long sigh of relief. He held Ricky's hand tightly and said to Simodo, "Thank you for escorting us, now that we've arrived, it's time for us to go our separate ways." ”

The girl was stunned.

Simodo nodded indifferently.

The figure of the father and daughter quickly disappeared from their sights.

"Cordo, Cordo, it's finally here." Jamal smiled silently, "Ironhide, did Lord Duran tell you that he asked us to gather here this time and prepare for going to sea?" ”

Ironhide hesitated for a moment, and finally said:

"You should have all heard of the place where the master wants to go."

"The legendary wonderland of the East Sea, the refuge of the Moon Elves, Alberon."
