In previous years, Shirinya and her mother should have harvested the snow fruits from the plantation and made them into the blacksmiths' favorite scalding cream, but in this day, they can only get rid of all of this. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Alain's request is to leave as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night. As a result, what Shirinya was able to take with her was quite limited.

"Miss, this is a set of chain mail and a covered helmet, let me put it on for you. "The one who spoke was a red-haired royal sister in her twenties, Delphi, who was a battle mage in Alain's personal guard, and was also the escort of Shilinya, whom Alain personally appointed.

"Ah, okay. "It's a set of chain mail that is exactly the same as the one on Delphi's body, even the covered helmet that I brought it. Shirinya also understood what the other party meant, obviously trying to confuse the perspective of those hidden enemies.

"Well, Miss Dalefield, please go out for a moment. Shirinya, who was patronizing and analyzing these details, realized after a long time that she was quite shy about undressing in front of others.

"Miss, do you wear chain mail?" Delphi disagreed with Shilinya's request, and his experience in dealing with people also knew that this eldest lady was shy, "Or I'll help you dress it." ”

Outside the town of Luou, Duke Anjitan's personal guard has already been assembled in the suburbs, and compared to when they came, they now have an extra wooden cart as a vehicle for Alicia's coffin. In addition, there is one more battle mage, but the dress and size of the battle mages are not much different, and Shilinya who is mixed in is difficult to distinguish.

The residents who came to say goodbye were shouting Shilinya's name and saying blessings constantly. In just one morning, Shilinya's aristocratic status has spread throughout the town, but what ordinary townspeople know is only the long-lost daughter of Guizhou, as for what level of nobleman, Denton and the town's high-ranking people are very consciously shut up.

Looking at the townsfolk who had disappeared into the white wilderness, Shilinya couldn't help but cry under her helmet. This is where I grew up, and if I leave now, I am afraid that I will never be able to go back in the future, and I can't say goodbye to them at this moment.

"There's no need to be sad. Dalefield, who was riding side by side on horseback, felt the change in Shilinya's mood at this moment, and comforted Shilinya softly, "I can come back when I have time in the future, and the parting now is just for a better reunion in the future, isn't it?"

"Yes. There was a trusting magic in the Royal Sister's words, and Shilinya's mood quickly calmed down, and Shilinya, who was also a mage, knew very well that this was not a charisma, but a simple calming technique, "Thank you, Dalefield." ”

The movement behind him can't be hidden from Alain, but at this moment, Alain didn't express anything, these emotional experiences are what Shirinya will encounter in the future, and now it's just a small exercise. There is still a lot of things that Shilinya will have to bear in the future, after all, this is Alain's future heir.

The winter night came quickly, and the procession had stopped and prepared to set up camp after not long in the morning. The reason for camping here is not because it is dark, but because there is a cave here where the Guards took refuge from the snowstorm the day before yesterday. Blizzards at night are dangerous, and camping in the wild is a very dangerous thing to do at that time, this is a different world, and there are always some snow wolves or snow trolls roaming south because of the arrival of winter.

The cave was wide enough, and after more than thirty hippos came in, it did not appear to be narrow, but felt wide enough.

"It's such a great place to be, and it's a blessing to be able to find this shelter before it gets dark. Eating the unpalatable but long-lasting black bread in her hand, Shilinya couldn't help but sigh, the first wild march made Shilinya, a pampered eldest lady, feel very unaccustomed.

"Shireen, it's not lucky. Alain was unimpressed when he heard Shilinya's words, and at the same time directed Shilinya's gaze to the deeper side of the cave, "This is strength. We can't pray for the protection of the five gods every time, we should create our own opportunities. ”

In the depths of the cavern, in the shadowy corner where the light did not shine, there lay a large, edelweiss body, some of its original white hair dyed red, and others as if it had been burned and blackened.

"Snow troll?" Shilinya was shocked by her own judgment, if it wasn't a coincidence, this should be the snow troll that had plagued Luou Town for several years, she didn't expect to see this disaster star that made the townspeople puzzled here, and would end its life here.

"This is the snow troll's lair?" This was so surprising, I didn't expect that the snow troll, a thick-skinned giant with more than six meters tall, would be wiped out by the members of this team. According to the legend Shilinya heard from Self-Defense Force Captain Dantony, the Snow Trolls, a special variant of the Trolls, were able to slaughter a team of 100 directly when tamed by the army.

"When we came here the day before yesterday, we had no idea that this was a monster's lair. And the horses were all cavalry, and the horses were frightened and put us in a passive position. Nibbling on the bread in his hand, Alain easily recounted his experience to Shirinya, perhaps the dangerous experience encountered this time was not comparable to the bloody battle on the battlefield in his opinion, and there was no thrill or pride in his tone. In the end, I and a few knights slashed his foot with axes and greatswords and fell to the ground, smashing it on the head to kill him. ”

"After the war, eighty percent of the arrows we brought with us were used up, and eight brothers and sisters died. Although the members of the Guards and Alain did not show any sadness, they still spoke helplessly about the casualties, "These trolls were a great weapon for slaughtering those pointy ears in the war five years ago, and now it has been proven that slaughtering their own people is also amazing. ”

Five years ago, the war was waged by Emperor Eumoned's against the High Elves of the Queens Islands, and the empire at that time was clamoring for the destruction of these pointy ears within a hundred days. But the fact is that on the sixtieth day of the war, Emperor Eumenedes was mysteriously killed in a naval battle, and on the hundredth day, the High Elf fleet arrived at the imperial capital, forcing the temporary successor to the throne to sign a contract. Now this war is even more named the Hundred Days War. Either side will feel quite ridiculed.

In the bushes not far from the cave, several figures in white robes were peeking at different angles in the cave. But to their disappointment, the tent set up in front of the cave subtly blocked the voyeur's view.

"Damn!" a white-robed man angrily threw his monocular to the ground

"Calm down and continue to observe the situation. A low, hoarse voice reproached the white-robed man dissatisfiedly, "There will always be an opportunity." ”

"Now that we are smaller than each other, and the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, they will soon be assembled with a large army. The white-robed man, who was not satisfied with this voice, roared to the other party in a low voice, "Until now, we don't even know who the other party is, how can you let us complete such a task!"

"Young people, normal heart. The low and hoarse voice was not surprised by the roaring Bin, and the telescope in his hand was still observing the cave with the flickering fire and human figures as always, "Although the armor and helmet hide the target, the rustiness of the riding skills is still exposed. The target had blended in with the battlemages. ”

"So what. The man in the white robe disagreed with this analysis, because he had thought of such an analysis a long time ago, and what he lacked now was the opportunity to do it and the plan to reduce his own casualties.

"Young man, too young. The voice felt extremely helpless at the moment, "We have been discovered, tell the others to retreat now." ”

Just a moment later, the white robes that had been lying in ambush around them all disappeared into the white forest, leaving only a large pile of messy footprints leading in all directions - except for the one at the entrance of the cave.

Soon, Turis was led to the bush with several soldiers, who were on guard with large tear-shaped shields in their hands.

"Ha~~" Turis took a deep breath, "I've been targeted by a group of skilled assassin agents." ”

The snow in and around the bush is now littered with footprints, as if an army had stepped on. This disguise of malice seemed to Turis to be a provocation.

"Oh. Alain honed the knight's sword in his hand as he listened to Turis's report, "There is an unknown number of skilled assassins or spies who have targeted us. ”

Shilinya, who originally felt exhausted, heard the information reported by Turis, and immediately cheered up and listened carefully to Turis's report. After all, this is a big thing that is closely related to one's own life.

"I found out that they were because they had a reflection of fire when they were using the telescope. Turis reluctantly reported that the enemy's exposure was a coincidence, and the tiny glow reflected from the telescope happened to alert Turis, who had come out to breathe, and that if it hadn't been for that, the enemy would have been able to lurk around him for longer.

"It can also be thought that the other party followed us here from Lu Ou?" Alan felt quite troubled by the report of Turis's reaction, and coincidentally was discovered by Turis, who was born as a scout cavalry and had an experience, so the strength of the other party was quite terrifying" Tell the night watchmen to be vigilant, increase the number of night watchmen at the same time, and then arrange some dark mines from under the snow outside. ”

"Father, I can help. I'll lay out magic traps. Hearing Alain's mention of the dark thunder, Shilinya quickly understood that the dark thunder was a magic trap and couldn't wait to show herself.

"Shireen, the magic traps for military use are not the same as what you normally learn. Now you study hard first. Alain was very happy to hear Shilinya's volunteering, but the gap in reality inevitably suppressed Shilinya's enthusiasm.

Stroking Shirinya's long hair, which had been coiled up, Alain said softly, "Soon my father will rely on you." ”

"Then I'll let my father take the pressure off because of me. Under Alain's loving gaze, Shilinya whispered, "Just as I once helped my mother." ”
