Solanka is a small town, but also an important transportation hub located on the periphery of the capital, and it is also a military center of the Gongwei capital, stationed the main army of the northern part of the Federation, and its significance to the Mesoarand Federation is probably equivalent to Tongguan outside Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Because of Solanka's important transportation significance and the safety brought by the heavy garrison, it was very popular with merchants and mercenaries, and gradually developed into a famous place in the north and south of the Federation.

A group of people from the Capital Academy settled down in this transportation town and waited for another group of people to meet.

In fact, Solanka is only more than a hundred kilometers away from the capital, and the carriage is only two days away at most, but a group of nobles insisted on walking for three days, which is the result of the mercenary group's urging to catch up.

But in any case, they finally got rid of the fate of sleeping in tents in the wild, and at the same time, the mercenary group was temporarily relieved, at least they could relax some of their guard strength here.

Martin's friendship with Tris these days has not been in vain, and the muscles shown to Tris are not useless, and now in the hearts of the knights of the mercenary group, the four of Anyang have become the existence second only to Flynn in status, no matter what they do, they are very preferential, and the allocated rooms are also the best.

As for the other talents, most of them share a room with two or three people, and there is no choice yet.

This is undoubtedly the worst treatment they have ever received in their lives for the nobles who live alone in a luxurious room wherever they go, but they have understood a lot of things in the past three days, and they dare not show their grievances.

But the four people in Anyang lived in one of the best suites and two luxurious rooms, with a large bed and an independent bathroom.

Early in the morning-

"My lord, Miss ConocoPhillips came to you again last night."

Shirdell said.

Anyang had a headache, he finally understood, didn't this girl think that Aine still remembered him in her heart, but she really couldn't stand such treatment as a pampered viscount since she was a child, and she wanted to get some benefits from him to make her life better.

"How did you deal with it?"

"I told her you weren't going to see her."

"That's good." An Yang nodded, "Next time she comes back, she can be stronger, after all, it is already a great favor that she didn't trouble her last time, and if you come to entanglement again, you don't have to endure it anymore!" ”

"I see!"

Shiryl, who had always been a little confused about Anyang's attitude, finally determined that he really didn't want to have anything to do with the little beauty that Aine had a crush on, so she simply agreed.

"Is your toiletries, towels and face wash ready, do you need me to serve you?"

"No need."

An Yang waved his hand and picked up the mouthwash cup.

After a moment, he asked, "When will the group of gifted people directly admitted by the Silent Tower arrive today?" ”

"I heard it won't be there until the afternoon."

Shirley replied respectfully.

"Afternoon?"

An Yang frowned, if it was afternoon, they would have to wait here until the afternoon, if those people came later, I am afraid that it would be delayed for about a day. And the nobles have had enough time to delay along the way.

Shiryl nodded: "The talents directly admitted by the Silent Tower are all from all over the country, they first met in Moon Town, and then they were escorted by several apprentices, and they only set off the day before yesterday, and the news of this afternoon's arrival was still conveyed through the messenger." ”

At the end, she added, "Martin heard all this news from Tris. ”

An Yang nodded to indicate that he understood.

He had read from a book that the messenger was a special bird that was fast and had particularly good wayfinding skills, making it suitable for transmitting urgent letters. Moreover, it has a very high level of loyalty to its owner, can imitate short language, and can explain its special passage when transmitting important information, which can be classified information or decryption code, and only certain people can make it speak. At the same time, it can also carry other clerical information.

An Yang washed his face and turned to go downstairs.

The knights of the mercenary group had prepared breakfast, but it was not very rich, only some of the gifted people from civilian backgrounds ate with relish, and the rest of the noble children chose to pay for some more sumptuous food from the inn, after all, there were not many places for them to spend on the way.

Triss prepared them a little more sumptuous than the other apprentices, and had reached the level where the nobles paid out of their own pockets. Anyang himself is not a picky person, so he thanked him a little, and regardless of whether these things were to his liking or not, he sat down and ate them.

After breakfast, he went upstairs.

An Yang opened the window, took out a thick quaint book, and sat by the window to read.

Shiryl stood not far behind him, not daring to say anything to disturb him. The words on it were twisted and twisted, and she couldn't read them when she was still in the barony, and she still couldn't understand them now after learning the mysterious language.

At present, An Yang has studied all the relevant contents of the mysterious system that he can come into contact with, and he has also exchanged books brought by fellow trainees, and there is very little knowledge that he can continue to absorb, but he still has many deficiencies in the extensive spell system and arcane magic system.

The reading was so engrossed in the reading that he lost track of the time, so much so that when Shiryl came to remind him that the other group had arrived, he didn't care, still studying a new magic.

Anyway, it is impossible to leave at such a late hour, at least it will be delayed for a day, and we can continue to travel tomorrow.

Anyang didn't fall asleep until late at night.

The next morning, after getting up and washing, he went downstairs to eat the prepared breakfast, and then he got into the carriage to continue his research.

At this time, the number of people who went downstairs to eat gradually increased.

It took about an hour for the convoy to depart.

Anyang had already been mentally prepared for the friction of the noble children, so it was not surprising that he waited for them quietly while reading a book, as if this was a practice.

And for the trainees who have begun to contact the power of the mysterious, this kind of obvious waste of time is a little intolerable, but the noble children are quite arrogant, and there have been several skirmishes on the road a few days ago, if it weren't for the existence of a Flynn in the convoy, some of the short-tempered trainees would be killed!

The carriage staggered forward along the road.

Anyang was the only one in the whole carriage, he was probably the most comfortable person, and he was the only person in the entire convoy with a maid and an entourage, and his life was probably more leisurely than Flynn.

The horse himself knew to follow the carriage in front of him slowly, and Shirrill didn't have to hurry, so she sat on the edge of the carriage and took out a book to read. This book was also given to them by a teacher at the Capital Academy.

But not long after, the carriage suddenly stopped.

An Yang immediately put down the book: "What's wrong?" ”

"Someone stopped the car outside."

Shiryl's voice came.

An Yang was a little displeased: "What's the matter?" ”

The car behind is already jammed.

"I'm sorry, but you're going to ......"

Shiryl's voice stopped abruptly, and then she said in surprise, "Yes...... It's Lord Lydia, why are you here! ”

An Yang took a look at it, called up the second system, and in addition to Shiryl, Danyou and Martin, there was really another space-time force unit in front of him.

Brush!

Anyang lifted the curtain.

A figure wrapped in gray linen civilian cloth was standing in front of her, she was carrying a large sword, the leather scabbard had been worn out, the exposed silver sword body also had a few gaps, and her long hair was a little grayish and white scattered, dressed like a down-and-out mercenary. However, I can vaguely see the graceful body curves from under the wide clothes.

"Cousin Lydia!"

An Yang was a little surprised: "Why are you here?" ”

Lydia's long gray hair was a very beautiful face, staring at him without blinking, but her expression was a little gloomy, "You were surprised to see me, but I can probably guess it!" ”

"Forehead ......"

An Yang was suddenly choked.

After a while, he figured out the cause and effect.

Presumably after he left ruthlessly, Lydia guessed where he was going and found the admissions office in the Silent Tower. Of course, it is possible not to be so narcissistic, maybe Lydia is just trying to pursue power, is it just a possible chance......

It's very small!

Headache......

Anyang naturally knows Lydia's persistence, which is also the reason why he has been evading, Cousin Sheryl has also been hooking up with him as if she was nothing, but she is not as difficult as her, if Lydia is a little more relaxed like Sheryl, he will not always avoid her.

He can also understand Lydia's infatuation, so it is difficult to be ruthless, and he can't bear to cut off her lifelong dependence.

But what can infatuation do?

If a woman is infatuated with a man, and the man must be responsible for her, then Andy Lau can't cope with it for a long time? In Andy Lau's golden age, I don't know how many women want to die or live for Andy Lau......

An Yang was silent, but still said, "Cousin Lydia, it's quite cold outside, you can go to the carriage and talk about it." ”

Although Shiryl had always regarded Lydia as a fierce rival, she immediately lifted the curtain of the carriage when she heard this.

However,

"Huh!"

Lydia sneered, turned around and left!

"Cousin Lydia!"

"Cousin, Cousin Lydia!"

Anyang hurriedly got out of the car and chased after Lydia.

Anyway, when he was too weak to look good, it was the Baron and Lydia who always protected him!

About five minutes later-

In the carriage, he and Lydia sat opposite each other.

"Cousin Lydia, how are you doing?"

An Yang asked tentatively.

He never expected to meet Lydia here! If he had known, he probably wouldn't have ...... Well, he didn't seem to have any choice but to silence the Tower.

Lydia glanced at him coldly, but did not speak.

An Yang was a little embarrassed and continued: "When I arrived in the capital, I wrote to my family to ask about your situation, and they said that you didn't go back after chasing me out, so ...... I felt guilty and worried about you during that time! ”

Lydia sneered twice: "Are you worried about me?" You've been gone for months, and I haven't heard from you at all! ”

Anyang suddenly became even more embarrassed.

He did feel guilty about Lydia's runaway, but he didn't worry too much about Lydia, on the one hand, he remembered that Lydia had said that without him she would leave the castle and make her home, proving that she would not look for a short-term vision, and on the other hand, he also believed that with Lydia's strength, the world could go and there was not much danger.

There are also some reasons why they are not very glamorous, so let's not talk about it!

But An Yang remained calm on his face.

Lydia also pursed her lips and did not speak, her face expressionless.

No one knew that she had been waiting for half a month on the way to leave Anyang, and she had been hoping that Ain, who had been guarding her all her life, would come back to see her once, even if it was just once. But she only waited for a few waves of thieves to wander around, and she killed them all with a few swords.

Unbeknownst to her, Ain was no longer there.

She wouldn't say those words.

After a long time, An Yang broke the silence again: "Cousin Lydia, did you pass the direct test of the Silent Tower?" ”

Lydia only nodded.

"And who are you with along the way?"

"What do you want to say?"

An Yang's expression froze, and he said, "Since you will also go to the Silent Tower to study, you can join us along the way." ”

Lydia laughed to herself and turned her head to look at the luxurious carriage that had driven out of the castle.

The general appearance and decoration of the carriage have not changed, and An Yang naturally does not know, even if she does not want him to leave and is very resistant, but this carriage is still bought by her, and these decorations and some accessories are also handled by her personally.

Finally, she looked at Shiryl, who was sitting in front of her.

"No, I've got somewhere to go!"

An Yang was immediately puzzled: "Why?" ”

Lydia turned her head and stared at him without blinking: "Because I know you don't want to be with me, and I don't want to force you." ”

An Yang was stunned for a moment.

Indeed, he already has Xiaoqian, and he doesn't want to cause too many love debts. And the law in the world is not that a man should have three wives and four concubines if he has money and power, which is really an unequal and disrespectful statement for women's rights, which is probably only thought by the undereducated or macho people.

If the emperor's concubines are few, the princes and ministers will not agree to the queen mother, and even sublimated to the height of national interests.

Even in such a situation, there are still emperors who only marry one woman in their lifetime, and they are devoted to old age!

And in the mouths of later generations, this emperor was highly evaluated in this matter, and this is the emperor who respects women's rights.

Anyang really didn't want to stay with Lydia.

Because he couldn't give her an explanation, and he didn't want to put up with Lydia's entanglement, he also had no feelings for this infatuated cousin.

But looking at Lydia's rough cloth and the big sword that broke through the gap, his heart sank inexplicably.

It's all because of him!
