(For a guarantee, let's update a chapter first.) ）

There was only one horse left, and Xiao Yan's speed was much faster, partly because there were all kinds of pursuers behind them, and on the other hand, because the Awakened Ones' ability to move was much stronger than the current horses.

Norel and Leah didn't weigh as much as an adult combined, and they didn't have any other loads, which made it easy for the horses to carry them both. With the protection of Quister and Xiao Xuan, there is nothing in the jungle that can hurt these two little girls for the time being. As a result, the oddly matched squad marched for at least 5 hours without pause before finally stopping. Leah slid off the horse with a tired face, and then fell into Xiao Yan's arms, and after a while, fell asleep sweetly. As for Nolelle, she really wanted to stay on the horse a little longer, at least not by Xiao Yanquist's side. The little girl's face was flushed, but the aristocratic reserve and the little girl's shyness made it impossible for her to tell what had happened to her in front of the two big men.

Fortunately, Sylvia already understood what was wrong with the little girl, and she reached out and said, "How does it feel?" Your legs should be very numb by now after riding a horse for such a long time for the first time, would you be interested in walking around the neighborhood with me? ”

Norel agreed with Sylvia's tactful suggestion, and she slowly leaned over before landing in Sylvia's arms. Sylvia was right, a long ride on a horse could indeed make her legs so numb that Norel couldn't walk on the ground for a while. Fortunately, Sylvia picked up the little girl and took her a few steps on the ground. The numbness just disappeared. Instead, there is a vigorous pinprick sensation. The feeling made Norel burst into tears. After all, he is only 6 years old, and he can't be as strong as an adult.

Sylvia looked down and asked, "Do you want me to hug it?" ”

Norel shook his head resolutely, with tears on his face, and said, "No, I can already walk on my own." ”

Xiao Yan watched the backs of Nolel and Sylvia disappear into the jungle, hugged Leah and turned his head to ask Quist, "How many people have come to the Inquisition this time?" ”

"Depending on the circumstances, the Inquisition is unlikely to send too many men until the problem has not deteriorated beyond control. Moreover, the Inquisition of Heresy in this world is also very chaotic, with more than a dozen factions fighting each other within the Inquisition. That's right. I'm talking about a dozen, not several, and the struggle between factions leads to very little information communication between them. So, I don't know if any of the other factions in the Dao have sent their personnel to participate in it. It must be said that this is a very chaotic situation. ”

Xiao Yan smiled and said, "We always encounter this kind of chaotic situation, but not much more this time. ”

Quist frowned, and did not continue to speak, but began to build a temporary campsite with Xiao Yan. They had traveled about 80 miles or more in a day today, and their strength had not been greatly depleted. But the horses couldn't hold on. After today's rest, Xiao Yan was ready to leave the horses behind. Leave this rough road and turn around and head south. In this way, they have another chance to break away from some of their pursuers, and as long as they enter the interior of the Alps, the Awakened will have a great advantage of being less logistically dependent. At the same time, they can move faster, and at this stage, the horses are already a small burden for them. However, before leaving the horses behind, the two little girls must gradually get used to such a bad situation.

"I can hold one, but the other one is really troublesome to take care of."

Xiao Yan said, then looked down at Leah, who was asleep in his arms and began to giggle, thought for a while and said, "But if you continue to move along this path, I'm afraid it's even more dangerous." I'm not worried about the pursuers, but the awakened people from other worldly realms. ”

For Xiao Yan's emotion, Quister just said "hey". From the outset, he persuaded Xiao Yan to send the two children back to Tobel City, but Xiao Yan rejected the proposal, which sounded like it would be beneficial for both parties, and instead chose the more troublesome path. Since this was Xiao Yan's decision, Quister did not intend to go against the captain's opinion.

After another moment, Sylvia walked back with Norel, who looked noticeably better. Seeing that Xiao Yan had already laid out the felt on the ground, Norel frowned and asked, "Will we always sleep on such felt?" ”

"Before arriving in Stuttgart, it was."

Norel looked at Xiao Yan suspiciously, and said, "You must have a lot of things you haven't told me, those who are chasing us, and what happened in Tobel City, let's talk, I want to hear it." ”

Xiao Yan glanced at Sylvia with some sarcasm, and then said, "Hey, listen, now is not the time for you to want to hear something, but the time to sleep." What we're going to say will have a chance later, but if you don't go to bed early now, you're going to be in a lot of pain. In the evening, we will wake you up for dinner and water, and until then, you should sleep well. ”

Nolel glanced at Xiao Yan suspiciously again and asked, "You won't leave?" ”

Xiao Yan nodded and said, "Of course, if we want to leave, we will already leave this morning, right?" ”

Nolel took her sister from Xiao Yan's arms, and the fat Leah was obviously a big burden for Nolelle at this age, but after the sister insisted on gently putting the little girl on the felt, she said: "Leah is a crybaby, but she is a good child." Please pay more attention to her and don't hate her just because she cries all the time. ”

Xiao Yan laughed, stretched out his hand to mess up Noel's hair, and then said, "Sleep your sleep, do you think I'm going to hate you?" ”

Nolelle shrugged his shoulders and pouted as he lay down, "It's hard to say, my servant, Granny Nomena, said that men are always curious at the moment, and the promise they make now is likely to be forgotten in the next second. ”

"Well, well, no matter what your servants say, I don't have any servants in my house, so no one reminds me what I should do to be a man. Now, sleep. ”

Norel yawned and glanced at Xiao Yan again, before lying down and tugging at Leah's hand. It should be said that riding a horse is very physically demanding for a child, and almost at the moment when Norel just lay down, she could no longer support it, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Xiao Yan waited for Norel to fall asleep, and after casually clicking on the light mask around the felt to make sure that the turbulent sound outside would not disturb the two sleeping children, he retracted his smile and asked, "How is it?" ”

Sylvia replied, "Still watching us nearby, there is no hostility for the time being, but it is a little closer. If they could get closer, I'd probably be able to pinpoint their exact location. ”

Xiao Yan frowned and asked, "In other words, they are very aware of your perceptual distance, so they stopped at the edge of your perceptual limit distance?" It doesn't sound like just anyone can do it. ”

Sylvia nodded and said, "That's right, it's difficult for the awakened people of other worldly realms to immediately judge our precise perceptual distance just by looking at us. Now it seems that this must be a very troublesome bunch, and if they are our opponents, it will be very dangerous for us. ”

Xiao Yan turned his head to look at Quist, who was praying, and said, "After all, it's these two children, not the earl. ”

After a moment of silence, Xiao Yan continued: "Whether it is the Inquisition of Heresy or the Correction Sect, their purpose from the beginning was these two children. Then the emperor was also involved, and the goal was the same. This is a little different from everything the eldest princess said to me before, but it is understandable. Everyone hid a part of what they knew, even Count Murathu. Last night's departure, of course, we can understand that he made a sacrifice for the whole city, but from another point of view, it can also be said that he even did not hesitate to die in order to leave these two children. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Yan looked at Sylvia and asked, "What is it for?" ”

Sylvia looked at the two children and said, "A power that even we can't control, maybe they inherited something from Medusa, but just Medusa's power may not alarm the Correction Sect at all." ”

Xiao Yan nodded and said, "This is exactly what I considered, the existence of the Law Correction Sect has two meanings in itself. One is the action force that serves as the corrective court of the law, and the other is to become the alternate of the empress. But neither of these can be linked to these two children. It's hard for me to imagine why the Correctors would come to fight for these two children, and it seems that Quister doesn't know why the Inquisition would be so interested in these two children, which is really something that doesn't sound troublesome, but in fact very troublesome. ”

Sylvia laughed and said, "That's the path you chose, didn't it?" The more troublesome the road, the more we can be rewarded, and instead of thinking about that, think about how you can start your new plan tomorrow. ”

Xiao Yan moved his body, walked over to Quist, who had just finished praying, and asked, "Can you go out and do a search in the afternoon?" I would like to know what's going on around Rando. It doesn't have to be too far, just get a general idea of what is going on within 15 miles. ”

Quister nodded, not refusing.

A few hours later, Quister brought the not-so-good, not-so-bad news, that there was a small human village about 20 miles ahead, but it seemed to be quite a large number, and it should be considered a distribution point into the mountains.

"We could find a guide there to go into the mountains, and the question was, how do we get into the village with these two children. Everywhere it could be eyeliner, and our every move will be noticed. (To be continued......)
