Lance and Veronica walked all the way north along the path by the river. The White Dragon Princess Roxani flew around the two of them with curiosity www.biquge.info as if she had brought a wild man into the capital of a country. Everything is full of novelties for the White Dragon Princess Roxani.

The majestic mountains were gradually left behind by the two of them, and the sky seemed to be covered with a black veil, gradually darkening. The sun began to hurry to complete today's task and go down the mountain to go home. But as he looked at the last gray peaks in the distance, Lance knew he was about to walk out of the Coast Mountains.

At this time, Lance suddenly felt something pressing on his shoulder. He was startled and hurriedly turned his head to look. It turned out to be the white dragon princess Roxani, who flew and landed on Lance's shoulder.

"Hey, Dragon Maiden, what did you do on my shoulder?"

The white dragon princess Loxani combed her wings and said, "Of course, I'm tired of flying, so I'll take a break." Also, call me Her Royal Highness the Princess! What a dragon girl and a dragon girl, it's ugly to death!"

Although Lance agreed to be the guardian of the white dragon princess who was accidentally adopted, there was still a trace of resistance in his heart. After all, he didn't even have the right to choose, especially this white dragon princess with a domineering and domineering look: "You can walk when you're tired! And you've got four legs, so you must be walking half as hard as I am. ”

The White Dragon Princess Loxani said in an arrogant tone, "Hey, I'm less than a day old! You let me walk, did you let your human babies walk for a day? And according to your human age, I'm less than an hour old." You take me with you, that's as it should be. And I'm still standing on my own. I didn't let you hold it, it's already very good for you!"

Lance angrily imitated the appearance of the White Dragon Princess Loxani Fei, and retorted, "Hey, have you ever seen a human baby less than an hour old who can scold people at the top of his throat and fly around? Although you were born less than a day ago, I think you are more energetic than a 20-year-old human youth. Come down, go by yourself!"

"I won't come down! I won't come down! You take care of me! I'm tired, you are my guardian! You have the obligation to carry me on my back!"

"Come down, this fierce woman, no! The dragon riders all ride dragons and fly. Why am I being ridden by a dragon! Come down, fly with me on your back!"

"You want to be shameless! I have such a soft and petite body, how can I move you such a stupid bear!

"You're annoying!"

"You hate it!"

"You're annoying!"

......

Looking at the way the two people were blowing their beards and staring at each other, Veronica, who had always been quiet, was also amused. Veronica also seems to be in a much better mood. With a team of explorers who feel safe and happy, Veronica is no longer so worried about the dangers around her.

Veronica smiled and said, "Okay, don't argue. Quarrel and quarrel, you are now also partners and comrades-in-arms who have to share weal and woe. Lance, let Her Royal Highness the princess go, after all, you are an adult now. Your Highness the Princess, why don't you fall on my shoulders and I'll take you for a while? Lance is very badly injured, and you should understand him more. ”

"Thank you, Sister Veronica, but no. After the White Dragon Princess Roxani said softly to Veronica, she turned her head and said disdainfully to Lance, "That's it, you nasty ghost, listen! Sister Veronica is a hundred times better than you! She has a good heart, and you are a nasty villain! However, I still rely on you as a nasty guardian." I'm not leaving, I'm mad at you! I'm mad at you!"

The stubborn Lance naturally did not back down when he heard this, Lance raised his eyebrows and said with a hint of a smile: "That's right! I admit that you are right, Veronica is a hundred times better than me." But Veronica is 10,000 times better than you! You fierce dragon woman, stay on my shoulder if you want. ”

When Veronica heard Lance's words, she burst out laughing.

Veronica wasn't laughing because they praised her, though. It's because the clever Veronica heard that Lance was scolding the white dragon princess Loxani in a different way.

The White Dragon Princess Loxani held her head high after her victory, and said proudly: "Hmph! I'll just stay, what's the matter, you bite me! If it weren't for signing this unbreakable contract with you, I would have taken refuge in Sister Veronica's door!"

Veronica covered her mouth lightly and said with a subtle smile: "Your Royal Highness Princess, Lance didn't soften what he said just now, he refuted you tactfully." ”

When Lance heard this, he looked at Veronica helplessly and smiled bitterly and said, "Veronica, don't you tell ...... you see through it."

"What?" The White Dragon Princess Loxani suddenly reacted at this time: "Okay! You nasty ghost! You actually scolded me in a different way! I said that you are a hundred times worse than Sister Veronica, and you say that I am ten thousand times worse than Sister Veronica." Together, you're a hundred times better than me, aren't you? You're digging a pit here, waiting for me! You cunning nasty old man, see if I don't bite you to death!"

As he spoke, the white dragon princess Roxani, who was standing on Lance's shoulder, reached out and bit Lance's ear.

Lance shouted directly: "Oops, oops, fierce dragon woman, so fierce, you can't find a suitable male dragon in the future, and you can't marry!"

"Alright, you two don't mess around. Veronica glanced at the darkening sky. Looking at Lance and the White Dragon Princess Loxani, who had already ceased fighting, he happily pointed to the gap between the two peaks in front of him and said, "After the Menize Pass in front, we will go out of the Coast Mountains and reach the Clay Plain." That is the land of my homeland, the Duchy of Idiris. We should be able to get back in the evening. ”

When the white dragon princess Loxani, who was lying on Lance's shoulder, heard this name, she turned her head excitedly and said excitedly: "Idiris? ”

But Lance wasn't as excited as the White Dragon Princess Roxani. His eyes followed Veronica's hand with a hint of complexity. He sighed under his breath, but a faint smile hung on his lips.

Lance was full of tangles at this point. Walking out of the Coast Mountains means that you will be farther and farther away from your pre-coma self, and you will have a completely new beginning. But he is full of curiosity and anticipation about this first country he wants to contact after waking up. A great curiosity about exploring the unknown resonated with Lance. What would a country that cultivated such a kind and beautiful girl as Veronica really look like?

Lance looked at Veronica leading the way, and then asked curiously, "Veronica, what do you think of your country Idris?

When Veronica heard this, she smiled happily and said, "My homeland of Idiris, is the greatest and most beautiful country in my opinion, and I love her deeply. She was founded in 877 A.D. by the 'common knight' Kachia Karfitze, and was originally founded as a knightly domain. Later, after the expansion and governance of the founding 'Five Sage Kings', it finally became the Grand Duchy of Idiris. In fact, it is already equivalent to the level of the kingdom, but it is not king. And it is also a country full of legends, and half of the heroic stories and epic legends on this continent are related to my motherland. For example, the great revival of the Normanland Empire, the 'Holy Emperor' Javier Orlando, made his fortune in Idiris. There is also the 'God of War' Veneto Rostor, who led 2,000 Idris soldiers to delay the 50,000 demon army for nearly two months. All are the heroes of our Idiris. Outsiders say that Idris is a country that gives birth to heroes. ”

The white dragon princess on the side, Locsani, kept nodding her head in agreement: "That's right! There are three national epics in this land, which are the favorite songs of the troubadours." One is the knightly land of Walkrant, which is full of stories of guarding the faith and rescuing the suffering knights. One is Hitivit, the land of flowers, which is full of beautiful and touching love stories. There is also the country of heroes, Idiris, which is full of heroic stories of those golden iron horses, fighting against demons, and dominating the world. ”

When Lance heard the last sentence, his heart felt as if he had been struck by a war drum. The country where heroes were born may be the boys' natural yearning for heroes, and Lance was suddenly full of admiration for this country, and he couldn't wait to see it.

However, there was a question before, and Lance had always wanted to ask: "Veronica, you said that the Duchy of Idiris was established in 877 of the Second Age, so when is the Second Age now?"

When Veronica heard this, she suddenly laughed embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I patronized to tell you this." I forgot to tell you the time it is. The Second Age has long since ended, and it is now May 11, 876 of the Third Age. The Second Age lasted for 2901 years and ended with the capture of St. Venian, the capital of the Normanland Empire, by the Demon Army. Then entered the Dark Age, and in January of the 29th year of the Dark Age, the 'Holy Emperor' Javier Orlando I mentioned earlier expelled the demons, once again unified all the countries and races of the entire continent, and rebuilt the Normanland Empire. Thus began the Third Age, until now. However, the unified Normanland Empire that Havel had now established had completely disintegrated nineteen years ago. It is now divided into nearly 100 independent states and city-states, large and small. There are 9 large human countries, and our Duchy of Idires counts as one, and the others are the Kingdom of Hitivita and the Kingdom of Walkrant mentioned earlier, and then the Kingdom of Normanland, the Kingdom of Jesus, the Kingdom of Casse, the Kingdom of Posen, the Kingdom of Landil and the Kingdom of the Knights of the Aegis. In addition to humans, there are also the five kingdoms of the elves, but they are all in the northern continent of Norton. And the dwarven kingdom of Lorraine, the orcs ......."

Just as Veronica was about to continue, Lance hurriedly covered Veronica's mouth. He then moved Veronica to the side behind a mound of dirt and motioned for Veronica not to speak. And the white dragon princess Roxani on the side also fell to the ground, looked at Veronica and nodded, signaling Veronica to do what Lance wanted.

Later, Veronica, who fell silent, heard the sound of a large number of troops marching in unison, their footsteps sonorous and powerful, and the sound of metal clashing. Lance knew that this force was a well-trained and well-equipped regular soldier.

Lance and Veronica were like three rabbits dodging eagles, revealing half of their heads and peeking out, and they saw that they were all soldiers in angular black armor.

Their massive plate armor was as thick as a tough black rock, and the heavy armor was surrounded by dark red ornamental patterns, but these patterns were much rougher and wilder than those on Lance's Broken Sword. Their armor followed their pace, making a metal-specific crashing sound, like the sound of swords clashing. And the huge battle axe and two-handed machete in their hands sent a message to Lance, who was spying on them, that this was a heavily armored warrior who was completely focused on attacking. They were both about 2 meters tall, and their exposed skin seemed to be earthy yellow and dark green, and the two vicious fangs protruding from their lips were the most striking features under the heavy helmets. All this made Lance, who was hiding on the sidelines, shudder.

Veronica, who was on the side, hurriedly took her finger and wrote a word on the mound: "Demon Orc Soldier".

Lance frowned, then nodded, and then retracted back into the mound. And now, Lance and Veronica were leaning their backs against the mound, holding their breath and listening to the sound of "ding-clanging" metal colliding behind them, passing behind them step by step.

After a while, the team of about 50 people walked over with terrifying neat steps. After seeing them walk away, disappearing into the huge dust that was kicked up. Lance, Veronica, and the White Dragon Princess Roxani, who were hiding behind the mound, all breathed a sigh of relief, and the stone hanging in their hearts finally fell with a thud. If this is discovered, it will definitely not escape as smoothly as it did against those three undead apprentices, and it will definitely be chopped into pulp.

The White Dragon Princess Loxani flew up, then hovered in front of Lance and Veronica and said, "It turns out that this is an orc, and it is indeed as ugly as rumored. It seems that the creatures created by the gods are not very good-looking. ”

Lance looked at the white dragon princess Loxani, and then said with a smile: "In this case, you were also created against the gods?"

"Of course not, our dragon clan was created by the god Venian in order to restrain some characteristics of the world...... Suddenly, the white dragon princess Roxani felt that something was wrong just now, and suddenly turned her head angrily and scolded: "Okay! Your voiceover is that I don't look good? You annoyance, what do you mean." See if I don't bite you to death!"

With that, Loni Sani rushed to Lance and got into a fight with him.

"What are you biting my ear again? You go away!"

"I'll bite you to death!

Veronica, who breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and patted the dirt on her cloak and cloth boots, then looked helplessly at Lance and the white dragon princess Roxani and said, "Okay." You two don't make a fuss, let's go. I'm going to hurry back. ”

At this point, however, Lance stopped playing with Roxani. Then he said with a serious expression: "I'm afraid we won't be able to leave today." ”
