509 Who are you?
When the convoy exited the tunnel, it was sunset, the golden afterglow was shining all over the land, and the silhouettes of the trees on the ridge were like a column of dutiful sentinels.
From Dios downwards, most of the high-ranking personnel in the valley have been waiting for a long time. Allegri stepped out of the carriage, took a breath of familiar air, and smiled as he stepped forward. Only here could he feel truly at ease, and only then did he suddenly realize that, deep down, he was unwilling to hand over the Herseus Valley.
"Coming back?" Dios patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "Let's go, the dinner is ready, I'll pick you up." ”
"Wait a minute, let me introduce you," Allegri leaned sideways and let Vilanoo out, "This is Master Vilaneo the Star Caller, and for some time to come, he will set up a protective circle for the path of the Lightseeker, and everyone must assist him in his work. ”
Everyone was taken aback, and they all showed respectful expressions and saluted Villanoo. In the Herseus Valley, magicians are already quite respected, not to mention, this is still a strong man who stands in the realm of legends.
"Master, this is Dios, this is Brooke......" Allegri introduced them one by one. In this circle, only Onessa, Perk, and Illo did not arrive. The first two are quite excusable, but with the character of a half-elf, how could he be absent from such an occasion? He wondered in his heart, and asked casually,
"Where's Illo, on another mission?"
He ...... Over there. Brooke pouted, and Allegri turned his head to look, only to find the Half-Elf Ranger hiding in the corner of the crowd with his head down, looking uneasy.
"What bad things have you done again, why don't you even dare to show your head?" Allegri pulled him through the crowd. Teased. With the relationship between the two, it doesn't hurt to make a few jokes, but today's Illo is a little abnormal, he just let out a sullen "um", still depressed, and depressed.
I saw that the carriage behind had already caught up. There are so many people that Allegri can't get to the bottom of it. He first asked Brooke to arrange a lodging for Villanoo, and then ordered the exhausted members of the convoy to eat and rest, and then dragged Illo to the most luxurious carriage.
"What?" Illo finally looked up and asked in a low voice. The half-elf, who was originally dashing, has been tortured for the past few days, and he has lost the interest of cleaning up. His cheeks were thin and his beard was unshaven, as if he had aged several years.
"Meet your old friend. Allegri walked ahead and did not look back at him.
"Who?" said Illo.
"You'll find out in a moment. "Allegri sold a pass. At the same time, the broken Dalgnan also rode his horse, and after whispering a few words to the old butler, he turned over and dismounted his mount, and walked briskly to this side.
"Huh?" Dalgnan couldn't help but be stunned. He was just about to ask, in the carriage behind him. Suddenly, the girl's delicate voice was heard, "Illo...... Sir?"
The groom lifted the curtains, the servants placed the mats, and Feeney, supported by the maid, stepped out of the carriage gracefully. The girl bowed slightly, and immediately stared at the half-elf ranger in front of her without blinking. With a little shyness, with a little admiration, but more but relief.
"I've finally met you......" Fennie's heart was mixed, and the corners of her eyes were slightly moist. For a noble girl who follows the rules. Sometimes, a trivial choice requires a lot of courage.
Illo raised his head and looked at her carefully, puzzled,
"Are you...... Who?"
The hall was brightly lit and bustling with people, and Allegri had eaten here countless times, but now he felt like he was on pins and needles.
On the left is an innocent-looking half-elf ranger, on the right is a weeping aristocratic girl, Allegri is caught in the middle, as embarrassed as he wants, not to mention an old butler with a pulled face, watching from the side.
"What the hell is going on?" he whispered as he approached Illo.
"I'll put ...... Bai Ji, I've lost my ......," Illo sighed in frustration and recounted what had happened in the Misty Swamp.
Allegri's expression became more and more solemn, and after listening to the whole story, he even subconsciously confirmed, "You didn't lie to me?"
Illo spread his hands, making it clear that he had no need to deceive anyone.
"After dinner, you call Dios and go to my place. Allegri pondered for a moment, then shook his head in annoyance. Bai Ji is a good girl, simple and independent, even if it is a boring task, she will accept it without complaint. As one of the first companions to follow him, Bai Ji and the Barbarian team led by him are the absolute elite combat force of the Sorrowful Mercenary Regiment, and the most loyal guards in the Herseus Valley.
Therefore, whether it is public or private, Allegri cannot sit idly by.
"Good. Illo stood up, bowed to Fenny apologetically, and then turned away. He is not in the mood to participate in the banquet now.
"I'm sorry," Allegri sighed, and explained to the girl, "In the last mission, the members of the river valley who traveled with Illo were captured by the enemy, and his life and death are still unknown. ”
"Sure enough, love and righteousness are important...... "Fennie's dim eyes lit up again, and she whispered to herself.
"Uh...... Ados, you talk to Miss Feeney, I'll go and urge you to see why the feast hasn't started yet. Blind emotion left Allegri speechless, and just as Dargnan passed by, he hurriedly pulled him over, and he casually found an excuse and left.
On the other side of the banquet hall, several high-level magicians were surrounding Vilaneo with adoring faces, asking for advice on the difficulties in their cultivation. Allegri turned his gaze and finally spotted Andrei's figure, and he walked straight over, greeting him with old acquaintances on the way, and he nodded back with a nod.
"My lord, is there something?" Seeing his hurried expression, Andre asked in surprise.
"Didn't you say that the dinner was ready, why hadn't it started yet?" Allegri asked, pausing to ask his archon.
"I don't know about that...... The internal affairs of the valley are now in the hands of His Highness. Andrei shrugged. The "Your Highness" in his mouth naturally refers to the former Grand Duke of Anlan, Onesha.
"Tell the feast," added Allegri, after a moment's thought, "besides, let her come to the feast as well." ”
"My lord, you have to go yourself," Andre is a good man, he pointed casually, turned around, and the voice came from afar, "Your Highness is behind." (To be continued......)
