Chapter 219: The Way
There weren't many people who came to see them off, and that's what Lance asked for. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info There are only Joseph, Chief Morgan, and Eve's brother Ferdinand.
Lance led the horse and said, "General Joseph, as long as you hold for a month, reinforcements will arrive no matter how slow you are." ”
Joseph smiled on his tired face and said, "You only want me to keep it for a month? ”
"If you kill all the demons before I come back, I'll have another celebration party. ”
Joseph shrugged and said, "Waiting for your celebration feast." ”
Lance and the others got on their horses, and Eve said to the three people who saw them off: "Joseph, Morgan, I hope that you can put aside your past grievances and work together in the face of national difficulties. ”
Both replied respectfully, "Yes, my Lord Duke." ”
Eve looked at her brother Ferdinand. Ferdinand took the wine bottle and said, "Don't worry, my sister, if any of them cause friction, I will shoot whoever is killed with the wine bottle." ”
"Brother......
Ferdinand smiled and said, "Okay, just kidding, I'll help you take care of your father, and then keep an eye on these old people." ”
"Trouble my brother. ”
"Then we'll go, take care. With that, Lance, Eve, Veronica, and Roxani rode away toward the Vignian Pass. It was the only way to the kingdoms of the West. Located in the middle of the Dragonclaw Mountains.
Along the way, there were refugees fleeing, many of whom were Normanlanders who fled east to escape the civil war in the Kingdom of Normanland. But now, many of them are finding that even the most stable of the eastern principalities, Idiris, is no longer safe. They survive in the cracks of war, but they find that under the nest, how can there be eggs?
There are nearly 300 kilometers of road from the capital city of Idiris to the western border Venian Pass, but there are so many roads, Eve does not say a word, just riding a horse with a sullen head. Lance tried to stir up a conversation countless times, but the only one who picked up the conversation was Roxani, who was curious about the new place. Since the White Dragon Princess transformed into a human form, she no longer has to be restrained and can move around at will. It seems that Lance they were played by Loxani. Now only this dragon clan has no fear of war, after all, they also have great power and can be fearless.
The closer they got to the Vignian Pass, the more refugees fled. From a distance, the originally beautiful undulating hills are full of gray and crushed refugee teams. They help the old and the young, and their eyes are empty. They don't know where to go.
Eve stopped when she passed a large oak tree, and she looked at the big oak tree, and finally spoke: "This is the great oak tree that my father rested when they retreated westward 20 years ago, and it seems that we are almost at the Vignian Pass." ”
Lance looked at Eve, whose face was full of pressure, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, as long as we invite reinforcements and fight a few more beautiful battles with him, we will never rest under this tree." ”
Eve didn't have much of a change from Lance's persuasion: "Lance, what if you don't invite reinforcements?"
"I'm sure they know that. Maybe you can't invite the armies of all countries, but there are always a few countries with strategic vision, like Princess Miranda. I believe that with my tongue, it shouldn't be a problem to move those people. ”
Eve continued to look up at the windswept oak trees and said, "Thank you, Lance, I really feel safe with you. ”
"Do we need to thank you? We're all friends, and we deserve to help each other. ”
"Friend......" Eve exhaled lightly, then pulled the horse's head and said, "Let's go, let's continue to set off." The Venian Pass is just ahead. ”
Lance and his party gradually saw a towering cliff in the distance, and a slender crack was like lightning, splitting the cliff in two. On both sides of the slender mountain gap, the huge stone statue of the human king nearly 100 meters high is like a guard, majestically guarding this narrow pass.
Veronica pointed to the statue in the distance and shouted: "See, Lance, those two huge statues are one of the twelve great human wonders on the Veniante continent - the Colossus of Pass, the statue of the Holy Emperor Javier on the left, and the statue of the god of war Veneto Rostoll on the right, this is the dividing line between the Kingdom of Normanland and the Kingdom of Idiris!"
Loxani looked at him in surprise and said, "Wow, I've only heard people talk about how magnificent it is in the dragon egg before, but when I see it today, it's really too majestic, but I'm afraid my father's body is only one-fifth of its height." No wonder it is said that man is the greatest architect in the world. ”
When they reached the Vinian Pass, they found that it was still congested, on the side of the Normanland Kingdom, the refugees wanted to flee to Idiris, but on the side of the Duchy of Idiris, the refugees wanted to flee back to the Normanland Kingdom. The two sides huddled together here. And the soldiers of the Normanland Kingdom who garrisoned it were helpless and could only let it develop.
There is a constant discussion about what is happening on both sides:
"Don't go to Idiris, it's already occupied by demons!"
"What, demons, oh my God, but don't go back, the whole of Normanland is full of war, it's purgatory on earth!"
"So where do we flee to? Other countries won't accept us at all. ”
And on a boulder beside him, the troubadour played the lute, and sang in a mocking tone:
"This ****-like world is like a treasure under the dragon's mouth,
People outside want to go in,
The people inside want to come out.
Either way,
You're a poor bastard. ”
The Vignian Pass was as noisy as a farmer's market, with the noise, the cries of children, the cries of livestock, and when people reached the pass, they realized that everywhere they were, it was hell.
At this time, the guards of the Normanland kingdom saw Lance coming from afar on the wildebeest of the Idris dragon, and shouted: "They are coming! ”
The refugees looked at the knights of Idiris, the most important of which was a man in Lance, and the rest were two female warriors in armor. The most important thing is that one wears the plate armor of the unicorn coat of arms that only the royal family of Idiris, the Rostol family, wears, while the other wears the lily armor of the Knights of the Redemption.
"Two female knights?"
"And one is from the House of Rostol, the other is from the Order of Redemption. ”
"Who are they? And who is that man?"
"Who knows? In these days, the nobles in armor are only thinking about running for their lives, can we civilians do anything if we don't escape?"
As soon as Lance and the others approached the pass, a familiar face appeared. This person is none other than Princess Miranda. When Lance saw his acquaintance and was just about to say hello happily, Princess Miranda trotted anxiously and shouted, "Oh my God, why did Lance come here, I ...... I...... I have bad news and I don't know what to tell you. (To be continued.) )
