Chapter 521: The Prince's Little Lori
The woman's shouting made the Spartan soldiers surrounding Rogge and the others stop advancing, and the Centurion looked back to see a woman in a white deep V backless dress standing not far away, her beautiful and mature face set off by her black wavy curly hair.

A boy of four or five years old stood beside her, his little hand raised high to hold her slender jade hand, and looked at the crowd curiously, and as soon as the ten-man saw the woman, he immediately greeted her, knelt down on one knee and saluted: "Madam, there are two Farrell and two orcs who want to see Your Majesty." ”
The woman known as Madame looked at the four people surrounded by the soldiers, and her eyes fell on Rogge's body, she looked Rogge up and down, and asked suspiciously, "Are you the legendary lone wolf?"
"It is me, ma'am, that you should be the wife of Leonidas, king of Sparta. Rogge bowed to her.
"Aren't you helping the orcs, why are you here?" the Queen of Sparta did not respond to his words or salute, but continued to stare at him suspiciously.
"In fact, the man who is helping the orc Great Chief Grote is an impostor. Rogge straightened up and smiled, "It was only after I came to the wilderness that I met the leader of the poisonous wolf tribe, Suer, and his beloved daughter Susan, that I learned that someone had mixed into the orc tribe under my name. ”
"How are you going to prove your word?" asked the Queen of Sparta, unfazed by his explanation, still staring at him warily.
"Well...... Rog spread his hands to her, shrugged his eyebrows and smiled, "It seems that I can't prove it to you, but what I can tell you is that Grote's army of orcs is advancing from both east and north, and several tribes are already close to the Spartan border." ”
He smiled and glanced at the surprised expressions on the faces of the Spartan soldiers, shrugged his shoulders and said, "If His Majesty Leonidas wants to crush the 20,000-strong army of orcs with three hundred men, as his ancestor Leonidas I did, then he can start moving troops now." ”
He pushed the Orc Captain beside him and said, "This is the Captain I captured from the army of the Belle tribe, he knows the whole plan of the march, I will bring him to His Majesty Leonidas, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask him." ”
The queen stared at the Beller orc captives standing beside Rogge, and was thinking about countermeasures, when she suddenly felt her little son next to her pull herself, she looked down at her son suspiciously, and saw him pointing to his side and shouting: "Little sister......"
The queen looked curiously in the direction her son pointed, and saw a little Lori in black with a black and purple doll head standing beside her son, tilting her little head and looking at her son curiously, the little prince stretched out his little hand to her, and the little Lori gently took his little hand, leaned forward and kissed his little face.
"Where did this kid come from?" the queen looked at the little Lori in surprise, the black feather dress on her body was obviously not a Spartan costume, and she didn't look like a Spartan girl, she looked up and asked the soldiers around her, but no one knew when the little Lori appeared here.
"Ah, I'm sorry Queen," said Rogge, smiling at this, "I brought this little villain!" He beckoned to Lilith and called her to him, touched her little head and whispered, "What are you doing?
"He calls me sister, of course I have to act like a sister!" said little Lori with her little head tilted up.
"I really don't see that you still have such a gentle and kind time to radiate the radiance of motherhood. Rog poked her little nose, Lilith didn't quite understand what he meant, but guessed that he must be making fun of himself, so she pouted and flew to Rog's shoulder in a flash of red light.
The Queen of Sparta, who was standing outside the soldier's wall, saw this scene without a bare expression, and she realized that the little girl just now was not as ordinary as she seemed on the surface, and if she wanted to hurt her son just now, she might just need to move her lips.
She pondered for a moment, looked up at Rogge and said, "Okay, I'll take you to Your Majesty." After saying that, she ordered the commander of the ten to send soldiers to report to the king of Sparta first, and she took Rogge and others into the city of Sparta.
Unlike the cities of the human kingdom, the Spartan cities were not surrounded by walls, and the stone houses that made up the central city of the Spartan kingdom make it look like a large village in the empire's territory.
Along the way, they saw many Spartan women passing by them, who seemed to know the queen and nodded or bowed to her, who smiled and nodded to them as if they were familiar neighbors.
"The women here look a little bit like Lisa. Catherine observed the women along the way as she walked, and whispered to Rogge, "From our point of view, the clothes are so open." ”
"There are indeed similarities. Rogge smiled and glanced at the Spartan woman who passed by, much like the other Spartan women, her upper body wrapped in a bandeau and a long skirt that reached her ankles, and her shoulders, jade neck, slender waist, and arms were all exposed.
"But the difference is that the Amazons live in a harsher environment, and most of them wear tight-fitting hunting suits made of animal skins, while Spartan women don't need to hunt and hunt themselves, they wear long skirts, which is also related to the climate of the wild wilderness, and it is still so hot in the winter in the imperial territory. ”
"Well, speaking of which, I kind of miss Lisa. Catherine said as she took off her white cloak and put it on her arm, and Roger smiled and said, "Should I associate your thoughts of Lisa with taking off your cloak?"
"Bad wolf," cried the little furball between Rog and Catherine, "does the stupid girl want to be a monkey?"
"Are you hungry?" Rogge picked her up and smiled back at Susan, "If you're hungry, do you have a little briquette with a lot of tongues here?"
"Pesky bad wolf, let me go, I can't eat it!" shouted the little furball fluttering its wings, and Susan couldn't help but smile at their amusement, and reached out to take the little furball and put it on her shoulder.
The group did not go straight to the palace under the leadership of the queen, but came to the training ground of the Spartan royal city, a vast and flat training ground, where the Spartan warriors were practicing in the scorching sun, everyone's face was covered with sweat, but no one stopped in the slightest.
"What a spectacular scene, are you like this?" Rogge asked Susan with a smile as he looked at the training phalanxes on the training ground, listened to the majestic slogans echoing in his ears.
"No, we never train like this," said Susan, looking at the Spartan soldiers who were attacking each other, "The orc warriors train themselves by hunting, and we will constantly challenge the mighty beasts of the wasteland, decorating our armor with their fur, fangs, and bones. ”
"In fact, we will do the same," said the queen, who had come of the front, turning back and interjecting, "when the boys reach adulthood, they will be thrown into the wilderness to survive alone, and only the boys who can live independently for a year will be qualified to be the warriors of Sparta." ”
"That's why the Spartans were able to win more with less," Rog said with a smile as he looked at the queen and Susan, "In terms of physique, the orcs are undoubtedly stronger, but the Spartans have a similar physique, they also have the same team nature as iron, and the orcs usually fight separately in war." ”
Susan nodded thoughtfully, only to hear the queen point to the front and say, "We have arrived." ”
In the direction she pointed, they saw a man with short black hair and a beard, wearing red leather armor and armed with a spear and a round shield, personally teaching the soldiers how to fight.
Rogge carefully observed his moves, and found that his spear was fast and powerful, his pace was as agile as a bobcat, and the attack and defense of the spear and shield were tacitly coordinated, and he couldn't help but secretly admire.
The queen motioned for Rogge and the others to wait in place, and she slowly stepped forward with the little prince and called "Your Majesty", and the king of Sparta looked back and immediately showed a gentle smile when he saw her, he motioned the soldiers to continue the exercise, and he handed the spear and shield to the soldiers beside him, and strode forward to hug his wife and son.
The queen looked back at Rog and the others, and told the king of Sparta what they were going to do, and Leonidas looked at them with a scrutinizing eye, gave his wife a meaningful look, motioned for her to get out of the way with the child, turned back to the spear-bearing soldier, took the spear from his hand, turned and threw it at Rog.
Catherine and Susan behind Rogge were taken aback, and before they could react, they suddenly saw a black shadow flashing in front of them, and there was only an afterimage left in Rogge's body, and he himself sped past the soldier holding a round shield behind Leonidas, snatched the round shield in his hand and ran back to its original position.
Hearing a crisp sound of "dang", the spear thrown by the king of Sparta hit the surface of the round shield and landed on the ground in front of Rog, who put down the shield covering his body, smiled and threw the round shield in his hand towards Leonidas.
The king of Sparta did not hesitate to catch his shield casually, and when he saw Rogge bending down to pick up the spear on the ground, he smiled and said: "A good Spartan spear, a good Spartan king, don't you be afraid that the guests will not be able to afford such a big gift as soon as you meet?"
"If you can't afford it, you're not really a lone wolf. Leonidas handed the shield to the soldiers behind him, strode forward and said to Rogge, "I have been inquiring about all the news about the lone wolf since he appeared in the wilderness, and I even sent spies to the Farrell Empire to find out the news. ”
"So, do you want to tell me that you know lone wolves well?" Rog glanced at the bushy beard on the Spartan king's face, stared at his sharp eyes and smiled, "I'm afraid you don't know as much as you say, right?"
"At least, I know that what you just did is not what the lone wolf beside Grote can do," Leonidas said confidently as he looked at him, "that lone wolf is obviously more skilled in magic than in combat, and I believe that if it was him standing in front of me, that spear would have pierced a hole in his chest." ”
"I don't know why, but I don't object to you doing that at all!" said Rogge, handing the spear in his hand to Leonidas.
Leonidas took the spear in his hand, glanced at the few people behind Rogge and said, "I heard that you have brought me bad news this time?"
