Chapter 338: The Wild Imp Jumped Out
"Welcome to the Fourth Kingdom." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Even if it's just a bustling town in the Fourth Kingdom, banners like this can be seen everywhere. Ironically, before Ophelia's strength amazed the four and received an acceptance letter from the Wind Furnace Academy, the Fourth Kingdom was far from like this. Now, the inhabitants of this place compliment Ophelia whenever they meet outsiders.
It was the future Empress of the Fourth Kingdom.
Brecht and the others said that in order to obtain more information, they said goodbye to everyone as soon as the morning dawned.
It was already afternoon, and the workers were successively delivering the goods brought by the merchant to the Chamber of Commerce, and the rich merchant's face was about to burst into laughter. If he sells out the goods, he will make a lot of money again, and when he returns to the imperial capital, he will be able to boast to his daughter that her idol Alyssa has volunteered to serve as an airship guard.
His daughter's dream is to become a glorious knight, and the hero of the kingdom, Alyssa, has been her spiritual mentor.
The Fourth Kingdom is a land of forests, and the town is shrouded in the depths of a dense forest, and the only consolation for Lin Qiu is that the townspeople have not yet returned to the point of living in trees—wooden houses are dotted along the road, and the log-paved paths look unusual. The tour guide said that it would take some time to replenish the energy in the crystal, so they had to stay in the town for one night.
There was never a shortage of merchants in the Fourth Kingdom, and people didn't pay much attention to Lin Qiu and the merchants, but it was Alyssa and the others who amazed them. However, when their eyes noticed the delicate swords on the waists of several people, they immediately looked away.
Merchants are common, but knights are rare.
Only a central city like the Imperial Capital will have a grand scene where knights can be seen everywhere, and in these remote towns, it would be a miracle for anyone to have a knight. As ordinary people, they don't want to provoke some unfamiliar knights.
"To the north there is a residence dedicated to Ophelia, and along the way there is a inn for the adventurer's guild, and the town's inn is not far away. The tour guide dutifully introduced the people to the others, and although it was the first time she had experienced the customs and customs of the Fourth Kingdom, she had read countless times about the towns near the airship towers in each region.
"You know a lot. Lin Qiu praised sincerely, for example, the imperial capital he took from the tower did not mark Ophelia's residence.
"This knowledge is what we live by...... Well, it's probably as important as sword skills to you!"
"It's decided, let's stay in Ophelia's residence today, I'm sure she won't mind!" Lin Qiu looked to the north, the log path led to a hill, presumably the residence was on the mountainside.
How can there be such a person who talks to himself!
The trace of goodwill that the tour guide had just had was instantly shattered, and she hurriedly stopped Lin Qiu from making some reckless moves: "It's not a hotel. Princess Ophelia was of great significance to the kingdom, and the inhabitants of almost every town spontaneously built a residence for her, ready to welcome her back from the imperial capital, and were usually guarded by guards and butlers, who were not allowed to enter by others. ”
"Just stay in the hostel for one night. Lilith suggested.
The Adventurers' Guild has a post in all towns and cities in Holutia, and the hotels near the inns are often funded by the Lilith Chamber of Commerce, but as the guild leader, she has never been so involved in the grassroots. Just as the knights were unevenly distributed in Holutia, so the adventurers were equally distributed.
The adventurer's guild in the imperial capital can occasionally see one or two royal knights, but it is considered an adventure to have an orthodox knight with silver emblems among the adventurers in a small town like this, and most of the adventurers gathered here can only be regarded as some strong men, not so much knights, these people are more like hunters.
Most of their daily tasks are to drive away some D-class monsters that disturb the safety of the town.
The pragmatic Prince Richard has already begun to count the number of people: "Count, we have ...... now Nine people. ”
"Richard, you're wrong, Uncle Merchant has just taken his leave and left. Lin Qiu said without looking back, he stared at the mysterious Ophelia residence carefully for a few more times, but still dispelled the idea that it might lead to hostility among the residents of the entire town.
"But...... It's nine people. Richard counted again and gave the same result.
"Richard, why are you getting more and more stupid?" Lin Qiu turned around and counted the numbers one by one: "Really, you have to be helped by others to even count, when will you be able to take charge alone?1, 2, 3...... 9, you see, this is obviously nine people......"
......
???
Lin Qiu was shocked, his eyes widened, and he carefully counted the number of people: "The original team of Alyssa's team is six people, and the rest are Miss Tour Guide, Helena who came out halfway, and ...... I don't know whose little ghost. ”
His gaze finally rested on a little boy with a hedgehog head and ragged clothes. The boy, whose face was covered in dust, was looking up at him. The boy crossed his arms around his chest and said with a critical look: "I say, you are the knights that everyone says!"
Lin Qiu didn't even know when he had mixed in.
"Of course, Brother Tyr and Sister Alyssa are the most powerful knights!" Seeing that the other party was the same age as herself, Rose hugged Lin Qiu's arm as if showing off, and declared her sovereignty: "What, I told you, I know a group of very powerful knights!"
"Do you know him?" there were more question marks on Lin Qiu's head. Rose obviously knew each other in this posture, and even Anna, who had always been friendly, had a slight hostility in her eyes, as if there was a slight grudge with this little ghost...... When they said goodbye to the merchant uncle, what happened to these bear children.
"Hmph. ”
The boy held his head high in disbelief: "I admit that they are knights, but I will not admit that they are powerful knights!"
Rose ignored him, but told Lin Qiu about the situation at that time: "When you said goodbye to the merchant uncle, he was sneaking around, he ...... He looks down on knights!Brother Tyr, prove to him that you are a great knight!"
Lin Qiu understood now.
No wonder Lian Anna looks angry, these two little girls have always admired the glorious profession of knights, if anyone slanders knights, they must reason with each other.
"We're going to the hotel, it's getting late, you should hurry home." Lin Qiu glanced at the boy with some amusement and said amicably.
The boy's expression did not waver in the slightest, and he still stared at Lin Qiu with his neck bent.
- "Unless you can defeat the beasts in the depths of the forest, I will never admit that you are powerful knights!"
