Chapter 500: Departure and New Beginning
Na'er's camel cart has a new look.
Because of Xiulin's insistence, Devany did not prepare a new carriage for them, but re-strengthened the old carriage that Na'er had rebuilt, hung curtains to protect against wind and sand on all sides, covered the car with soft mats, and gave them a lot of fruits, jerky, sheep nΗi, and a new tent.
The camels that pulled the carts were also carefully selected by the herdsmen near the city of Arcatia, and they looked very strong, and the lord of the city of Arcatia hoped that these guests would have a smooth journey.
"We still walked from the river. Xiulin looked at the map in her hand.
This map, like the one that Devany had given to the wizard, clearly shows the location of the Alcatia Oasis and the city of Arcatia, and also indicates the Emerald River and its tributaries, "Well, you see, from this road to the northeast is the mill where we rest, and further east is the Emerald River." β
Xiulin seemed to be savoring something, and nodded with relish as she said to Carlo.
Walking along the Emerald River, you will reach her hometown of Sand Eagle City, I don't know if Xiulin wants to go back and take a look, she hasn't mentioned it yet.
The camel cart drove out of the city gate in the sight of the silver-faced guards of the Feather Clan.
Na'er left the door at the back of the car open, lifted the curtain, and watched the beautiful city that had impressed them back little by little. With its bright white walls, brilliant red spires, and wonderful islands floating in the air like mushroom bushes, there is no second Arcatia city in the entire Palan continent.
This is a "fantasy land isolated from the world". A city of dreams.
"Wait a minute!
There was a scream of rage at the gate, and the camel cart soon stopped, and Carlo jumped off the rack, and everyone was looking behind it.
"Wait a minute...... Wait, wait for me......"
Freya, dressed in a blue long-sleeved top and a long white dress, gasped for breath and caught up with the camel cart. Without waiting for the people in the car to ask her what she wanted to do, she grabbed the rear door frame and seemed to want to climb into the car, but she was too tired to have any strength.
"Hey, pull me. Freya held out her hand unceremoniously.
"Freya, you'reβ" Asha stared at Freya in surprise. Freya's dress was noticeably more modest. The long hair on the sideburns was also tied back to the back of the head. Tie a thin ribbon. Aisha subconsciously reached out and grabbed Freya's hand, and Freya climbed into the car.
"Finally caught up...... Alright, it's time to go. Freya spoke as if she were a rightful passenger in the car. She sat down on the cushion beside her, and looked up at the ceiling of the camel cart with interest.
The rest of the car looked at each other for a while.
"Doesn't Her Majesty need to explain?" Xiulin tilted her head. There was surprise in his dark eyes. "Where are you going?"
"To the north, of course. Freya puffed up her queenly momentum. "I, I've looked at the map, and I know that the 'north' you humans speak of is on the other side of the desert. Far away, it doesn't matter. β
When she said this, she looked at Ivan with a look that was between complaining and provocative, so that Ivan couldn't help but want to say to her, "What's the matter with me?" However, before Ivan could speak, Aisha threw out the question.
"You're going to the north of the Rebelo Desert......? Are you going alone?"
"Hmm...... It's not alone, isn't it, isn't there a few of you?" Freya looked away from Asha as if she was worried, "I'll go with you, and Daphne will feel relieved." β
"Oh, that's what the city lord meant?" Xiulin was surprised.
"That's what I mean!" Freya exclaimed dissatisfiedly, "I, I want to travel north like Daphne......, can't I? I haven't seen many humans before......"
"Sister Wind Spirit wants to see humans!" said Na'er's mouth wide. As a human being, this is a difficult idea to understand.
Freya lowered her head and pulled her hair around her fingers and played. Aixia, Ivan and Xiulin quickly exchanged glances, Aisha and Ivan were still surprised, but Xiulin showed a helpless expression of "I really can't help her".
She raised her hand and motioned for everyone to stop talking.
"Your Majesty, I said, it's really not that we don't want to take you to see the human race, you are the noble Queen of the Feather Clan, if something happens to you, how can we be responsible?" Xiulin said in a respectful tone deliberately.
"Is the North so dangerous? don't you all live in the North?" Freya blinked, "Ah, actually Devany told me - I've read books myself, and I know that there are a lot of mutated monsters outside of Arcatia, and they seem to be quite scary. β
"Monsters......" Xiulin took a pensive pose. Suddenly, Na'er came to her senses, and she approached Freya expectantly.
"That, if Sister Wind Spirit is afraid of monsters, she lives in the Anglo region! There are many magicians in the Anglo region, so you don't need to be afraid of monsters!"
She actually supported Freya to go north?
"You mean, let me live in a place where there are a lot of magicians?" Freya was shocked, she stood up, took a deep breath, and was stunned for ten seconds before she finally spit outβ
"It seems to be a very good building!"
Freya's face was filled with a smile of surprise like that of a child. She quietly looked at each of the mages in the car, her shining gaze somehow creepy. Carlo frowned, glanced at Xiulin, and looked at Freya sternly.
"It's not just monsters that are dangerous. He exhorted very solemnly.
"I've been through something very dangerous. Freya's smile faded, "I'm not saying I want to venture north, I'm just thinking that even if I stay in Arcatia City, I'll still leave a lot of things to others to do, and I, I can't help it! The guards in the city already know who I am...... I thought of a place where no one knew who I was, like Devany said. Be a regular Feather Traveler...... Ahh
She raised her hand and pointed at Ivan.
"Did you really decide to go north?" Ivan seemed to understand Xiulin's helpless feeling, he knew that Freya sometimes just admits death and can't listen to others, "Miss Xue Ling, she supports you to go?"
"Well, Devany also thinks I'll learn more by going north with you. Freya's face flushed again as she spoke, "I'm not saying I don't understand anything. I just want to see how you humans live in the north. Isn't it the same as it is written in the book...... In short, yes, this is the queen's homework......"
"Why don't you take her with you?" Xiulin tugged at the corners of her mouth. Gesture to Carlo. Carlo didn't say anything. Turn around. Back on the catch-up frame.
"Are you going to go to Anglo? Why don't I lend you a room? I rented a small building in Adrian City, and there are quite a few rooms. In the city of Adrian in the Anglo region, I hope that Her Majesty will not dislike it. β
The camel cart continued in a northeasterly direction. Xiulin mentioned yì to Freya as if she was joking, but she still deliberately used honorifics.
Queen Freya pursed her lips and glared at Xiulin dissatisfied.
"I'm going to hide my identity!, no one of you is allowed to call me 'Her Majesty!'" Freya muttered, "There are a lot of cities in the Anglo region?Adrian City, what is that?" she quickly became curious about Adrian City again.
"There are many, many human places!" replied Na'er.
"Well, Sister Xiulin, do you mean to let Freya live with us?" said Asha seemed unfazed.
"Isn't that possible? It's quite lively. Xiulin smiled very slyly, "It's not like we live together, huh...... If it's not convenient, there are also many hotels in Adrian City, and I don't know how much money the Queen brought with herβoh no, how much money did Miss Wind Spirit bring?"
"Here!" Freya shook her left hand, and a heavy wallet immediately appeared in her hand, "This is Mikol, the common currency of the Paran Continent, and Daphne gave me a lot." β
"Wow, there are really a lot!" Xiulin took the wallet and smashed her mouth at the bag full of glittering gold coins, Devonie was really generous, each of them was a large gold coin worth a thousand kilore, not to mention thirty.
"Miss Wind Spirit better put it away, be careful of being robbed. β
"It's okay, I've got my Divine Wings on. Freya shook the silver bracelet on her wrist triumphantly, "Don't underestimate me, if you use the Divine Wings, I won't be worse than you magicians!"
"Yes, yes......" Xiulin nodded repeatedly.
The shadow of the camel cart grew smaller and smaller, and finally, slowly disappeared at the end of the oasis.
The lord of Arcatia, Devany Cherling, silently turned around and stood on the white-stone wall, looking out into the city.
Beneath his feet is the glazed roof that changes with the morning light, showing colorful colors, and in the distance, the broken heavenly kingdom held up by the Yu clan with the remains of their ancient holy land. Arcatia City is like the intersection of two worlds, the world of the Feather Clan and the world of humans.
Spreading her snow-white wings, Daphne soared into the sky like a goshawk looking down on the earth. She flew very fast, and she was a master of flying among the Feather Clan, and it seemed as if she had just been daydreaming for a while, and she reached the semicircular platform of the Sky Mansion.
Heather stood on the platform, hands down, head bowed. When Freya arrived, Daphne locked him in the basement, and he looked like he hadn't closed his eyes for a week. The pale blue-green hair hung limply over his shoulders, and his silver-blue eyes had lost their lustre, and Daphne walked past him without a hint of sympathy on her face.
"I'm going back to Kadolissa. Devany said.
"What are you going to do?" Heather looked up in a trance.
"You stay here, if Freya comes back, I need you to inform me as soon as possible. Devany didn't answer, she put her hand on her distant brother's shoulder, as if handing him a heavy burden, "Arcatia City...... I can't hand it over to someone outside the family, but I can't let you manage it alone anymore, you're too impulsive. β
"Got it. Heather hung her head again.
Ignoring Heather, Daphne stepped into the intricately carved leaf-shaped archway, into an elegantly decorated corridor, and into the door of space to another continent.
"Judith. She whispered the old queen's name.
"In the end, you still forgot your promise......"
