The crimson of dusk was already covering the distant sky. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe slight coolness of the May night swept along the river, wiping a hint of coolness. Lance stepped out of the cabin, and as soon as he looked up, he saw the most beautiful view since his amnesia.

Look along the gilded river covered by the sunset. Above the glittering waters, a magnificent city is dressed in magnificent gold, like a handsome knight looking back, standing on the endless plain.

The majestic white city walls and arrow towers, the white stone bridges flying north and south, the independent and towering white castles, and the white flags embroidered with blue four-pointed stars fluttering in the wind are all painted with warm gold by the setting sun. Travelers from afar mistakenly think that the city was made of gold.

The sailboat also picked up speed at this time, drawing a trail of wakes on the surface of the lake, like the tail of a swallow. It seems that the sailors can't wait to enter this majestic city.

"Lance, welcome to the 'City of Stars' Idiris. ”

Veronica looked at the city of Idris that came into view, and slowly walked to Lance's side, her eyes were full of inexplicable emotion, as if she had seen a long-lost relative:

"Lance, you know what? this is where I was born, and coming back here is like going back to my hometown in Moonfall. ”

"You weren't born in your hometown?" Lance looked at Veronica with a smile on her lips in confusion.

"Yes, my family has lived in Falling Moon in the county of West Blanca for generations. It's a beautiful cosy border town between humans and night elves, and I've always wanted to visit there. But I was born 19 years ago in the midst of the World War, when Moonfall was burned to the ground by demons. And the city of Idris has just been recovered from the hands of the demons. Pregnant with my mother, I followed my grandfather Andrei's Knights of Redemption and returned to Idiris. And it was in the tent of the marching hospital of the Knights of the Redemption that my mother gave birth to me. I heard that there was a child born at the same time as me in the same tent. ”

As he spoke, Lance saw Veronica combing her windswept hair around her ears, looking back with a happy but subtle smile. The smile at the corner of the mouth is just right and not pretentious, and the thin and lovely pink lips reveal quiet happiness. Against the backdrop of the magnificent sunset, Lance seems to be looking at a world-famous painting of a beautiful girl. No, no brush can paint her charm in such a beautiful picture.

"Winnie, when the May Festival is done, I'll accompany you to your hometown of Falling Moon Town to have a look. ”

Veronica looked at Lance with an expectant smile and said, "Well, okay! I'll take a leave of absence from my grandfather." Then the two of us, taking Her Royal Highness with her, went on a tour of the whole of Idiris. Not only do you have to go to Falling Moon Town, but you also have to go to Lansgargh Pass to see the city of elves, and then go to Eagle Gang City, which is built on a high mountain. By the way, there is also the only trade gateway with the Hanxia continent - Hanxia Town, where you can bring a little good tea to grandpa......"

However, although the two of them are very happy to imagine the future of travel. But it seems that now I always feel that something is too comfortable, as if something is missing.

Veronica suddenly stopped her thoughts, and then asked, "Is Her Highness the princess asleep, do you want to wake her up?" I think she must be interested in such a view. ”

Only then did Lance remember that the noisy little guy along the way was now tired, and he was sleeping comfortably in his backpack: "Forget it, she's tired of playing today, let her fall asleep." There will be opportunities in the future. ”

"Also, today is really hard work Her Royal Highness the Princess. Veronica turned her head and continued to admire the beautiful city that was getting closer and closer.

The sailing ship slowly sailed into the harbor of the city of Idiris, compared to the simple wooden docks of Menise. The docks of Idris are made of neatly cut white rocks, each of which is intricately carved into it. It looks like it's piled up with a beautiful ivory carving.

The city of Idris is located on the west side of the confluence of two rivers, the Clay and the Little Clay. The water is so vast and wide that first-time travelers are likely to mistake it for a lake.

The majestic harbour wharf has 12 moorings and is densely packed with many mast sailing ships. As far as the eye can see, there are dense masts piercing the sky. Not far from the port, there is a white lighthouse, which stands next to the port like a white chess piece. A roaring flame burned at the top of the tower, guiding the merchant ships as they entered the harbor at night.

By this time it was already dark, and it seemed that the ship Lance was on was the last to visit. On the docks there are now only scattered boatmen who have gone home.

However, when Lance and Veronica step off the boat, Lance finds a place that is out of step with the beautiful scenery around them.

It was a high platform made of wood on the edge of the harbor, and on the high platform stood a dozen wooden poles several meters high. And the most terrifying thing is that the top of the wooden pole is covered with all kinds of heads. There are humans, but there are also orcs, kobolds, and other races. Every head opened its mouth in horror, and its sunken eyes looked at the sky with despair.

"Who are these people, why are the heads hanging here?" asked Lance, gasping coldly.

"They are spies who have been designated by Duke Aceh as collaborating with the demons. Veronica glanced at the heads and said with a hint of sadness:

"The Duke of Aceh hates the demons very much. Because his beloved wife, Lady Winnie, died tragically at the hands of the demons. That's why the Duke of Aceh hates everything related to demons. Anyone suspected of being related to the demons will be beheaded. Speaking of which, I would like to remind you as well. Don't tell you what you know. I'm afraid you'll be treated like a spy too. ”

"Don't worry, I don't have anything to do with magic words. ”

But looking at Veronica's worried look. Lance smiled and raised his right hand, making a sworn gesture and said, "Winnie, don't worry. I swear to you, from today onwards, you let me speak the magic language, and I will speak the magic language. At other times, the lingua franca is used. ”

Veronica said embarrassedly, "What are you swearing to me...... Alright, let's go to the city. ”

With that, Lance and Veronica walked down the wide street with their backpacks on their backs towards the city. As he walked through the majestic city gates, Reims looked up and admired the architectural marvel of the world with his mouth open. The huge gate is four stories high, and the white boulder bricks on both sides of the gate cave are carved with exquisite reliefs. Under the light of the torches around it, it seems to be dancing as if it is alive.

The same majestic and heavy steel gate is like the dragon wings of a black-winged dragon, and it is majesticly attached to both sides of the gate. The steel gate, which was half a meter thick, made it difficult for Lance to imagine what kind of siege weapon could break through such a gate.

Passing through the majestic gates, you will be greeted by the neat and wide white boulder streets of Idiris. The wide streets were already sparsely populated. The buildings on both sides are also three-story buildings with uniform white walls and blue roofs. The walls are stacked with white stone bricks and are carefully carved with beautiful patterns. Flowers and trees, dragons and gods, everything.

Lance finally sees different races on the street, and Veronica takes the trouble to explain them to Lance. There are bearded, high-pitched dwarves, most of whom are now from the dwarven kingdom of Lorraine. There is also a half-goat man with a goat's head and a goatee, but with a humanoid body, walking upright. They live in the westernmost part of the mainland, Crow Rocky Beach, and they are also good cooks, and major hotels and restaurants will give priority to hiring them as chefs.

But what made Lance the most strange was a group of races with the appearance of human teenagers who were only 12 or 3 years old. The men wore white shirts and suspenders, and the women wore small dresses, which was very cute. Veronica said that they were actually adults over the age of 18, but they were very petite. Their names are Lori, and they belong to a halfling race that lives in the Lori Plains in the northeastern part of the Kingdom of Hitivit. Their embroidery, weaving and brewing honey is the best on the entire continent.

At this moment, a dark shadow suddenly flashed in the sky, and the people around them all stopped, looked up, and let out a sound of amazement.

Lance followed the crowd and saw a giant flying creature the size of a horse, which looked like an eagle and flew across the sky.

"It's a four-clawed eagle, a magically intelligent creature. It is a flying species peculiar to our Idiris, and there are flying cavalry of giant eagles, but they are scarce. The four-clawed eagle and the griffin are distant relatives, but the griffon's talons are cat's claws, while the giant eagle's talons are four-talons. ”

"Then I'd love to take a trip on it. ”

"That's a little harder. Veronica smiled and said, "The ride on the giant eagle must have the approval of Duke Aceh." After all, this is an emergency resource. ”

Soon, Veronica took the stop-and-go and looked around, and Lance, who was a "hillbilly", arrived at the door of a hotel. The hostel is not big, which is twice the size of the surrounding houses. However, the large wooden sign at the entrance is unusually conspicuous. The name of the inn is written in exaggerated and scribbled handwriting, like a dog's crawl.

Lance could vaguely decipher the name of the inn written in dog's crawling characters.

After the difficult interpretation, Langston smiled and leaned back: "Haha...... Caught off guard by pig's trotters, the name of this hostel is also too funny. Who gave this inn such an unfortunate name. ”

"Excuse me...... I started it, do you have any opinions?

A voice mixed with embarrassment and gnashing of teeth came. At the same time, the owner of the voice also clenched his fists, and the knuckles of his fingertips "creaked", as if issuing an angry warning.
