As Maia, Zheng Yi's advice is equivalent to everyone's orders.

So Zheng Yi took his familiar friends, Stone, Kalmon, Bofu, and Irwen to the Northern Great Wall first. It was a well-groomed road, perfect for chocobo marches, and there was no need to be dragged down by cavalry.

The twenty knights brought by Stone were of mixed quality, and there was no need to follow them to the dwarf kingdom of Beleriand. If they really want to go to war, they can join the rest of Solania's army and go to the meeting point in the middle of the Misty Mountains.

Although this is not in line with the task assigned to the knights, their highest priority in this mission is to obey the orders of Maia Ankolimon.

The chocobo carried everyone and galloped north.

If the Kingdom of Solania is shaped like a kidney...... Forget it, let's use the ear as a metaphor, the two are very similar.

If the kingdom of Solania is like an ear, strictly speaking, the outer ear, the location of the misty forest in the external ear canal, the silver castle is located in the middle of the auricle, and the royal capital Rovafuron is in the position of the earlobe.

In order to defend against the invasion of the orcs in the north, it took Sorenia two hundred years to build a great wall in the mountains of the north. This intermittent Great Wall, combined with the fortress, sealed the passage for the Orcs to invade the south. It also provided the basis for human beings to hunt and mine north.

The Great Wall and the Great Way of the North were able to be maintained precisely because the nobles were satisfied with the commercial and mining taxes and were willing to continue to invest a part of the profits.

At a speed of two hundred kilometers per hour, the chocobo overtook almost all the caravans on the road. From the eyes of the merchants, it can be seen that they are happy to break the bank and exchange their money for such an artifact - they can earn back hundreds of times the profit of running transportation in the future.

Zheng Yi will also stop every hour to rest for a while. After all, he was sitting on fluid silicone, Irwen was sitting on the hood, Stone and Calmon could only stand, and Puff was even worse and had to lie on the rear top box.

In the evening, the chocobo finally reached the easternmost fort of good luck.

The official name of Fort Good Luck was originally in the Talesca language for "the land of the rising sun," and it was a huge thirteen-word spelling that was so pronounced close to Elvish that it was barely spelled correctly in official documents.

And because the fort was so much embedded in orc territory that it would be surrounded for a few months each year, the colloquial name "Fort of Good Luck" replaced the official name.

Today, the royal court clerks no longer bothered with the official name of the fortress. Their usual trick is to write a random word and then note it in the form of a note: Good Luck Fort.

The supreme commander in charge of guarding the fort of good luck was Baron Polson. His family has guarded the fort for generations, and all the villages within 50 kilometers of the fort have been used as fiefs.

The bearded baron took the documents issued by the Silver Castle and carefully checked them: stamps, signatures, handwriting...... Even the unspoken rules when mentioning the fort of good luck are conventional, meticulous. However, he still did not believe that this was true, and he confidently said:

"This document is very much like the real thing, more real than the real thing, but the people who made it are very brainless. Didn't he know to write the date a little earlier? Who can get the signing order last night and have dinner at Fort Good Luck tonight? And you didn't even notice the problem along the way! ”

Shi Dong was about to negotiate with the baron, when Zheng Yi stepped forward and opened the tulip.

A bright pillar of light shot towards the city wall, enveloping Baron Polson.

Zheng Yi said, "In the name of Lady Valda, open the door. ”

Baron Polson stepped aside.

The lights chased after him.

Baron Polson withdrew from the aperture, and then he saw that the pillar of light was gone, but a small sun rose outside the castle.

The little sun illuminates the walls of the castle so much that it is impossible to look at it directly.

Zheng Yi cleared his throat: "Open the door!" ”

Baron Polson turned his head and ordered, "Open the door." In the hesitation of the knights around him, he said again: "Could a person with such a giant lamp be a half-orc spy?" And there are only four of them, and we have four hundred. ”

The Good Luck Fort is a hybrid of a military fortress and a lord's castle. It's not like the Silver Castle, where there are only knights and soldiers. There were a hundred soldiers here, as well as more than three hundred civilians. The so-called "four hundred" of the lord Baron Polson also included children of twelve or thirteen years old.

And Zheng Yi is not four people here, they are five people!

"I'm Bov the Khand!" After everyone had introduced each other, Bofu introduced himself.

Polson smiled awkwardly, still rude. He said, "I have prepared a dinner party to welcome you all here." ”

The dinner was held in the banquet hall of the castle, with a row of long tables on a high platform and four rows of long tables below, attended by all the knights and soldiers except the soldiers who were on duty at night.

The long table on the high platform, headed by Baron Polçon, sits in the middle. His wife, a tall, red-haired woman, sat on his left hand side. Zheng Yi sat on the right hand of Baron Porçon as a guest of honor, followed by Stone, Culmont and Poff. As a female guest, Irwen sat on the left hand of the Baroness, and then the two daughters of the Baron.

"Let's drink as much as you want!" The baron called the table open.

A whole wild boar is brought to a long table, and the owner holds a small axe to cut the wild boar with crispy skin and tender meat, and distributes it in order, left and right.

Erwen declined the main course and praised only the lettuce.

Zheng Yi naturally got the most tender part - shoulder blades.

Stone got the tenderloin.

Carmont was pleased with the buttocks.

Boff ...... Puff didn't know where he had gone as soon as he had just started the table. He was curious about the culture of the Northlands, especially the strange accessories worn by the warriors.

"My intellect doesn't trust you, but my instincts tell me that I'm right to believe you. The bad guys don't wear Mithril. ”

Baron Polson pun:

One is that Mithril is naturally anti-evil, anti-necromancy, and anti-demon. This is similar to Zheng Yi's passivity.

Well, Mithril is very expensive, very, very expensive.

It's a pity that his proud rhetoric didn't find the right object to display, and Zheng Yi didn't understand it at all, and he didn't care.

The baron had no choice but to pick up the wine to hide his embarrassment: "'The Wild Laughter of the God of War', the original Silver Castle, don't you really want to have it?" ”

"I like 'Lady Stellar's Favor.'" Zheng Yi also made a pun.

His rhetorical display was likewise thrown at the wrong object, and the baron was silent, and the baroness said:

"None of our ladies here are fond of this wine. It tastes like water, but it's sour than water. ”

Polson cast an apologetic expression at Zheng Yi: "My wife speaks straight, don't mind." ”

The awkward conversation really can't go on.

Zheng Yi ate a piece of meat and thought it tasted good.

Polson stroked his mustache lightly and asked, "What is your purpose?" ”

"Stay here for one night, and go to the dwarves tomorrow." Zheng Yi said: "If you feel scared, we can also camp outside the city. ”

The baron was silent for a full two sips of wine, and said, "We haven't been in contact with the dwarves for twenty years, since they lost Fort Highland. ”

"Oh?" Zheng Yi gave the baron an encouraging look and motioned for him to elaborate.
