……
On the road to Star City, two people and two horses galloped quickly on the road.
A person is wearing dragoon armor, above the armor, flashing with a trace of coldness, with the long sword on his waist, it is even more powerful and domineering, the evil aura is pressing, and the killing aura from the bursts can be felt, under this sword, how many lives are carried, although it is not human. The other person, dressed in an ordinary coarse cloth robe, was handsome and extraordinary, but he had a strip of cloth tied around his head, which covered his eyes, and the clear-eyed person knew at a glance that this person's eyes were invisible.
These two people are Liu Peng and Ai Lixue on the return trip.
When she returned to Star City and saw the tall city walls and the gates she had entered and exited, she was speechless about the longing in her heart. The face is naturally revealed.
"Huh...... This city wall, this city gate, is still so majestic and magnificent. ”
If there were ordinary people on the side, they would definitely laugh at what Liu Peng said, saying that you are a blind man, how do you know the magnificent city wall, but Ai Lixue did not smile, because Ai Lixue knew that Liu Peng had the ability to perceive the world around him, just like his eyes, and even the function of closing his eyes was even more powerful, seeing farther and seeing more carefully.
"Yes, back then, my grandfather led an army of millions to build a small city here into a big city, set the national capital, and in more than ten years, it also created the star city of the first city, and the defense power on the entire continent is nothing to say."
Liu Peng listened and smiled slightly, admiring Grandpa Elixue's talent, "Your grandfather is very good." I know how to add demon-repelling stone powder to the rocks that build the city wall gate, which can resist the energy attacks of some demon beasts, and my mind is quite flexible. It seems that your grandfather has put a lot of effort into this city. ”
"Yes, after the efforts of my grandfather and my father, this Star City has what it is now, and I admire my grandfather and father, there are too few Ming Jun on the mainland, if they can be like grandpa and father. Then there will be no intrigue within the human race on the continent, and the human race will be able to unite and defend against foreign enemies. ”
"Alright. Without further ado, let's get inside. So saying, he rode into the city.
"It's Her Royal Highness the princess who is back...... Great, Elie Snow is back...... Go and tell His Majesty! ……”
With the order of the first chieftain was given. One of the guards hurriedly ran into the duty room. The news of Elissy's return was transmitted to the palace through a magical teleportation.
When Liu Peng and Alixue came to the gate of the palace, His Majesty the King and the ministers were already waiting, and there was a slim girl standing next to the king, wearing a princess dress, and she didn't need to think about it to know that it was the king's second daughter, Princess Alice.
Elixue dismounted, and immediately ran up, embracing the king. Liu Peng also dismounted, and immediately walked up to two guards. He led the horse down.
"It's good to be back...... Ha ha...... It's good to come back......"
"Sister Elixue. You're finally back. Alice also ran up and hugged Alice.
Ai Lixue also left tears of missing, left for ten years, saying that I don't miss that is just, Liu Peng saw Ai Lixue and her family reunited, did not say much, stood quietly aside and waited, after a long time, the king reacted, hurriedly walked in front of Liu Peng, respectfully said, "Master......" When he raised his head, he found that Liu Peng's eyes were covered by strips of cloth, and he suddenly wondered, "Master, your eyes??" ”
"Hehe, it's nothing, there was a little accident, my eyes can't see, it doesn't matter."
At this time, Ai Lixue also stepped forward and said softly, "Father, Brother Liu was injured for me, and his eyes have lost their light, I ......"
When the king heard this, he was quickly surprised, "Then hurry up and ask the masters of the Holy Medical Hall to come and heal the master's eyes...... Hurry up and ......" Several guards were about to rush to the Holy Medical Pavilion, but they were all stopped by Liu Peng.
"Thank you for the king's kindness, but forget it, my system is special, once I am injured, there is no possibility of recovery, and it doesn't matter, because this carelessness has taught me a profound lesson, and I have unexpectedly broken through, I have an ability, and I can also sense every move around me, but it doesn't hurt to see it."
Seeing that Liu Peng's injury could not be recovered, the king was also deeply sorry, thinking that the master had suffered an irreparable injury for his daughter, and the king was also very unhappy in his heart, "I am deeply saddened by the master's injury, the master is so desperate for the little girl, I ...... I will always remember my kindness to the master, and in the future, the master will be useful to the old age, even if I speak, as long as I can do it, the old man will never postpone it......"
"Your Majesty is serious, Ai Lixue is my apprentice, as a master, you naturally have to care about your apprentice, it's nothing, speaking of which, I also want to thank Xiaoxue, if it weren't for her, I wouldn't have broken through so quickly, and my strength has greatly improved." If Your Majesty really doesn't want to go, it's good that after the breakthrough, the state of mind will go up, and the aura is still a little worse, so you need some crystal nuclei of demon beasts to absorb and raise the aura, if the king has extra crystal nuclei for me, it will be the best. Huh"
Hearing this, the king was relieved and relieved.
"Okay, if the master has a request, just say it, I will immediately send someone to send all the advanced crystal nuclei to the master, I hope the master will not dislike ......"
"Haha, His Majesty the King is so generous, how can I, Liu Peng, dislike it."
"The master and the little girl are tired from a long journey, hurry up and go to the palace to rest, I have asked the master to prepare a place to live, master, please ......"
Liu Peng nodded slightly towards the king and walked into the palace side by side with the king.
……
Soon, the crystal nucleus was sent to the place where Liu Peng lived, perceiving the hundreds of boxes that were sent, opening the box, and seeing that it was full of high-grade demon beast crystal nuclei, Liu Peng smiled excitedly, so many crystal nuclei, it should be able to exchange a lot of energy coins, and immediately clicked on the exchange panel, and suddenly all the demon beast crystal nuclei were included in the inventory.
After nearly ten minutes, the sound of the system sounded.
"The exchange is completed, and the exchange will get 2.4 million energy coins, and the existing energy coins: 15800000."
After exchanging the crystal nucleus, Liu Peng also took a beautiful bath and went to sleep on the bed.
……
In the early morning of the next day, Liu Peng walked on the street outside the palace, saw the notice laid out, and by perceiving the world, he knew that the king had posted a notice, saying that he was going to recruit a team of mercenaries from the star card division to escort Princess Alice to the Snow Castle, and protect Princess Alice, pointing to the three years of study.
Knowing that the mission was about to start, Liu Peng also smiled and was about to continue walking, but found that His Majesty the King had actually come out to inspect Star City on a private visit.
Liu Peng stepped forward slowly, and said softly, "Your Majesty really loves the people, you came out to inspect Star City so early......
"Master...... The king didn't expect Liu Peng to also take a walk outside, and he actually knew that it was himself, and he couldn't help but think of the new ability that Liu Peng said yesterday, it seems that this ability is more useful with his eyes closed.
The king immediately bowed down and said respectfully, "What did the master say, the so-called water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn a boat, and these common people are the foundation of governing the Tao." ”
"Hehe, this is also something that many kings can't do, by the way, Your Majesty, I just sensed the content of the notice, saying that I was going to send Alice to the Wind and Snow Castle to study, I don't know if there is such a thing??"
Hearing Liu Peng ask, the king did not hide it, "Yes, master, you are right, there is indeed such a thing, the youngest daughter is extremely talented, when she was born, she was taken by the castle owner of Fengxue Castle, and accepted as a closed disciple, saying that when the youngest daughter was fifteen years old, she was sent to Fengxue Castle to study for three years, and at that time she was a nine-star star card master." ”
"Oh?? Talent is so good?? By the way, Your Majesty, I've been idle and bored lately, so why don't I go with me on this escort mission?? ”
His Majesty the King was also surprised to hear that Liu Peng was going to escort Alice in person, you must know that even His Majesty the King is not qualified to ask a legendary star card master who has the Earth Bear as a war beast to personally protect or others, and now, such a strong man himself said that he wanted to protect just because he thought it was a princess, which was as unbelievable as a fantasy.
"The master is serious, how can the little girl be able to bother the master to escort her personally, isn't it a torture for the old man."
"Hehe, the king doesn't have to be so polite, Alice is Xiaoxue's sister, I naturally have to care, besides, Alice's identity is here, as a force in the anti-human camp, I will definitely not let go of this opportunity easily, and I will definitely arrange a lot of people to ambush and sneak attack on the road, so it's safer for me to go with me."
After thinking about the pros and cons of the matter, the king no longer insisted, and immediately bowed down and said, "Then there is Master Lao...... Master, please ......"
In this way, Liu Peng and the king returned to the palace with a team of guards.
……
Things were settled quickly, and the day was fast approaching.
The mercenary group that took over this task happened to be the team of the high-strength brothers and sisters, the Tenglong Mercenary Group. The number of people in the whole team is not much, and the total number is only fifty, after all, this matter cannot be publicized, so the number of people is not very large, but everyone in it is a good player with one enemy and ten.
Everything was ready, and the team was immediately out and on the road.
