Tianhao followed Elizabeth's footsteps with his eyes, and wherever she went, he moved.

There wasn't much to take with you, and two suitcases were enough for it.

Take off the long skirt and change into trousers that make it easy to move, the blouse and waistcoat are prepared by the cow women months ago, sewing according to the style peculiar to the white aristocracy of the south.

Three jewelry boxes are filled with gemstones. Jadeite, agate, diamond diamond...... The impact of an asteroid on Earth triggered huge plate activity, and a new round of geological changes produced various minerals in the northern part of the continent. These shiny stones can be found in many places, but they seem meaningless to the barbarians, cannot be eaten or clothed, and are at best a decoration.

In the eyes of white people, they are precious, priceless treasures.

Tianhao sat in a chair and took Elizabeth's hand, and the scene was like a giant man-eating beast grabbing a little girl, condescendingly looking at its prey, looking for the best place to take it.

He carefully explained the precautions: "Discuss things with Bonnard, as well as Bob and Stewart, they are the most trustworthy people around you." ”

In addition to Elizabeth and Bonnard, Tianhao is also assimilating the other sailors on the "Obsidian". By his order, all sailors were kept in solitary confinement, as long as they moved within a fixed range, and did not interfere with their daily lives. Although it is impossible to eliminate everyone's hostility towards the northern barbarians, it can change the minds of some people. Tianhao asked the guards to learn English, the meaning of which is this———— the two sides cannot talk normally, it is difficult to eliminate the estrangement and bring the relationship closer to each other.

Bob and Stewart are two of the most successful sailors in the transformation. Like Bonnard, they both underwent spore transplantation.

If there is more time, Tianhao feels that he can transform a few more people. Even one more would increase the odds of success for Elizabeth's plan to return to the South.

Niu Weibang came at an inopportune time.

But he can't be blamed for this kind of thing. Tian Hao carefully read the document, and the order was personally signed by His Majesty King Niu, stipulating the departure time, which must not be violated.

This is a tribal tradition, and it is also a duty that every tribal nobleman must observe.

Elizabeth managed to control her emotions and went back and forth between giving up hope and regaining hope: "...... I don't want to leave, I want to stay with you. ”

Tianhao's expression did not change at all, he was no longer gentle, and although his tone was not cold, it was much less emotional than before: "No." ”

“…… But ......" Elizabeth could no longer control it, and tears welled up from her eyes: "...... I love you, I love you! ”

"If you love me, you will do things for me." Tianhao replied very quickly, without thinking, and his tough tone was non-negotiable, let alone resistible: "You should understand that from the day I left you behind and started training, you were destined to obey my orders. If it weren't for your nobility, you wouldn't have survived until now. ”

Tianhao forcibly suppressed the anger rising from the bottom of his heart, and said coldly: "The food in Rock City is very precious, and I don't raise waste. ”

The current Elizabeth is not the Elizabeth of the past. Although her appearance is exactly the same, and her body structure has not changed, her brain thinking has changed, her subjective consciousness is completely controlled by spores, and her personal thinking is suppressed to a very small range, and as time goes by, she will be swallowed up by parasitic spores little by little.

The relationship between the spore and the host is so wonderful that the host must first be receptive, and then identify with the spore-producing subject. Friends, or more intimate relationships than this, of course, lovers born of love.

Curved teeth are Tianhao's first transformation target. However, in terms of success rate and degree of integration, the curved teeth can only reach 80% of Elizabeth's at most.

She fell in love with the young lord. Although this kind of love seems absurd and ridiculous, it is truly an emotional release that transcends age and race. Elizabeth is 15 years old, and her understanding and perception of the world is stuck in a narrow circle of self-confinement. She loves knights, romantic stories, and especially Cinderella.

In the days when she was first captured by Zhengjiang and returned to the fishing village, she couldn't sleep all night because of fright. Tianhao would always appear when she was frightened and uncomfortable, lighting the lamp, hugging her through the quilt, and telling in a gentle voice about the evil stepmother and the girl, about her painful and miserable life of being oppressed, about the prince's party, and about the pair of crystal slippers that connected the hearts of the two young people.

Positioning is important.

Tianhao didn't treat Elizabeth as his own from the beginning.

Coming from the age of civilization, he is full of deep wariness and hatred for the white skin. The latter originated very simply, because of the beloved girlfriend. The former is more complicated, the nation, the state, and all other things...... The word "patriot" can be used to encapsulate it simply.

The most important reason ———— she is not our person.

If it is a barbarian, even if Elizabeth does not have a unique body like Ayi, she is fat and strong, Tianhao may accept it. A woman who takes the initiative to express her affection for a man is always pitiful, her feelings are pure and sincere, and Tianhao never doubts that Elizabeth is willing to give everything for love.

Unfortunately, she is of the same race.

Tianhao's attitude towards Elizabeth is like that of a cat or a dog. You can lie at the feet of the master and be coquettish, you can stretch out your tongue and lick the master's hand, and even allow you to show your paws when you are particularly spoiled, and occasionally have a little temper...... But in any case, cats and dogs are pets after all, honest and obedient, you can have no worries about food and clothing, if you are rebellious, the owner does not mind disemboweling you, cramping and peeling, washing and chopping, adding more green onions and ginger stew, and then a pot of old wine.

If Tianhao wants a woman, as long as he looks at him, countless women will immediately rush to pounce.

Elizabeth's appearance can only be regarded as average, and the special training in the past few months has adjusted her in all aspects, and the whole person has shown a special temperament, and the attention of the female figure has also been revealed. However, Tianhao's purpose was accurate from the beginning———— he needed a tool, an alien cronie who could stir up a storm in the south of the continent, not a toy that could only accompany him in front of the bed and enjoy life.

If Lao Tzu wants, he can casually pick out thousands of women from the rock collar. Controlling their diet, training rigorously every day according to the standard ballet course, yoga and body classes to keep up, simple music and painting, and then inspiring them to develop an interest in literature and poetry...... If you continue to cultivate like this, beautiful girls who meet the aesthetics will soon be able to fill the harem of the young lord.

The age of civilization has long proven that "natural beauty" is a. Makeup is so magical that an abominable youkai can be transformed into a peerless beauty through makeup. Otherworldly beauty stays on the outside, so much so that men and women have to find ways to make up excuses to let each other take a bath or wash their faces, and let the water wash away the lead and show their true faces.

Of course, this is an exaggeration, but Tianhao is not a little boy, he longs for love, but he will not accept any kind of love that goes beyond a fixed boundary.

Now there is no need to be kind to Elizabeth. Her subjective consciousness is controlled by spores, and coquettishness is just a remnant consciousness at work. It's like investing, feeding a target for a long time, luring it. Now that the goal has been achieved, it is impossible for Tianhao to be obedient to Elizabeth as before, and continue to make her emotionally dependent.

There is no need for this, whether she wants to or refuses, she is now my person, and she must obey unconditionally.

……

The moonlight shone silver on the calm sea, and the "Obsidian" quietly stopped in the harbor. In the eyes of the barbarians, it was too small to be considered a sea-going vessel to cross the ocean, but at best an inshore fishing vessel.

The well-dressed sailors were already on deck, making preparations for the voyage. They were excited, constantly exchanging words, and despite careful volume control, they could occasionally hear the slightest words of their conversation.

"We're getting out of this place."

"Holy Lord's willing, these savage giants have finally let us go."

"When I get back, I'm going to lie in a tavern for three days and three nights, and I'm going to drink all the barrels of beer and the gin."

"I've had enough of this time, and one day I'll come back and kill all these damn barbarians."

"I didn't expect the kid with the captain to be a girl, and he was quite beautiful. Hey, hey, hey...... Obey her orders for the time being! I bet with my head that she must have slept with the so-called Giant Lord, and maybe she was pregnant with a barbarian. ”

"Listen to me, don't be in a hurry, these days at sea, whatever they say, we will do it. Without us they would not have been able to sail the ship, there must have been some kind of conspiracy between the Giant Lord and Elizabeth. Everyone was patient, and everything waited until the landing. I will take you to report to the King and the Holy See, and if you give Elizabeth a good prize, we will receive a good prize. ”

"You're right, I'm in favor of it."

Dense whispered conversations could not be heard by the overseers, but Tianhao was different, his body organs had been continuously strengthened, and he could hear these sailors talking in private, whether it was now or before, and it was nothing more than that: informing, rebellion, getting rich, murdering......

They were right about at least one thing———— the "Obsidian" had to rely on these people to set sail.

Food and water had been moved into the holds, and furs and other cargo had been brought to the ship. Tianhao walked in front of Bonnard, Bob, and Stewart, ignored them, and without even saying hello, he went straight to Elizabeth, stretched out his hand to straighten the collar of her messy clothes, and said seriously, "Go!" ”

Her beautiful blue eyes stared at Tianhao: "Can I still come back?" ”

After hesitating for a moment, Tianhao nodded slightly: "If there is such a need, I will send someone to pick you up." ”

At this time, it is necessary to give a little encouragement to the hesitant girl, a little hope that seems slim but enough to calm the heart.

She turned and got into the boat, and walked so decisively.

Elizabeth knew very well that this was the future she had to face.

Unleashing the cable, the massive hull slowly leaves the dock and heads out to sea.

On the sea not far away, a huge black shadow like a mountain of the "Great Viper" appeared. It will accompany the Obsidian as it leaves the northern world and heads south.

……

The huge army left Rock City and headed south.

Spring awakens the barren earth, and countless greens grow from all corners, in different layers, in different positions, overlapping or sparse, interspersed with white and yellow petals. Crowds can be seen at all times in the area close to the walled city, leading their cattle to plough the fields, women helping their husbands dig pits and sow seeds, and children running around laughing.

Messy and real life, an orderly rotating world.

There were constantly cavalry galloping on the main road, and they were in teams of three, undertaking the task of guarding and delivering news. According to the agreement between the tribes of the northern barbarians, all troops going to Suolong Pass are friendly troops, and they are forbidden to attack at any time. Even the blood feud between tribes that kills their fathers and wives can only be resolved through normal warfare.

The Barbarian Assembly has supreme power, and any tribe that dares to offend it will be rebuked by everyone and become a public enemy.

1,000 Niu infantry, 1,000 pig heavy infantry, and 2,000 troops are not large, but they attract people along the way.

Well-equipped, neatly groomed, and sturdy warriors with grim expressions, their hands and feet show that they are truly elite.

There were not many horses, except for Tianhao and Liao Qiu, plus dozens of personal guards, the rest of the people were on foot.

"I never thought I'd walk the territory of the Tiger Clan in this way." Tianhao pulled the reins, controlled the horses with skillful movements, and let out a low sigh.

Liao Qiu wore an intricately crafted chain mail with a protective layer woven with metal clasps that tightly covered every corner from the shoulders to the wrists. He lifted the visor of his steel helmet and said with a smile, "There is no real friendship between the Ox and the Tiger. We need horses, they need weapons and armor, but no one will budge. If it weren't for everyone's belief in the beast god, you would have been killed a long time ago. ”

Although chain mail is lighter than steel armor, it is also very uncomfortable to wear on the body for a long time. Tianhao moved his sore shoulders, sighed, and said half-jokingly, "We should elect an emperor so that we can truly unite all the tribes." ”

Liao Qiu clamped the horse's belly between his legs to ensure that his upper body remained balanced. His gaze was calm: "You're right. This kind of thing is hard to do, someone has tried it before, and there is more than one...... None of them succeeded. ”

Tianhao did not discuss this issue in depth.

It is enough to provoke thought, many questions are destined to be impossible to find answers at least for now, but as long as the seeds are sown, properly watered, and fertilized, even if they cannot thrive, they will at least sprout and show their sprouts.

"Let's go, I hope to pass through the territory of the Tiger Clan and enter the territory of the Leo Clan tonight."

The team picked up speed.
