Chapter 65: Ride Home with You
After finding Gretel, Di Xue had no reason to continue to stay outside the fog forest, he found Xu Bo and Richard, ready to discuss the return itinerary.
Captain Richard's intention was to go to the provincial capital of the Western Moon Province, and then teleport directly back to the Tower of Eternity through the Life Teleportation Array there in Guò.
The provincial capital of each province of the empire has a life teleportation array, which is connected with the Tower of Eternity, and now the empire's information transmission is very developed, and the information space teleportation array is almost all over the Red Sea Continent, but the space teleportation array that can transmit life is still very rare, and the construction of the life teleportation array is extremely cumbersome and expensive, only the Eternal Tower, the School of Divine Law, the provincial capitals of the ten major provinces and the four border fortresses have.
Hearing Captain Richard's mention of Emperor Xue was slightly silent, he knew that this was for Richard's safety, this was undoubtedly the fastest and safest method, but the opening of the teleportation array in the provincial capital of Xiyue Province was no better than that of the Tower of Eternity and the Divine Law Academy, and the magic energy required to open the life teleportation array once was very large.
The distance between the Tower of Eternity and the Academy of Divine Law is close, and the teleportation array of the Temple of the Temple of the Temple of the Divine Law Academy can borrow the power of the Tower of Eternity, and because of the Tower of Eternity, it costs very little to open the magic crystal once.
However, it is different to open a life teleportation array between the Xiyue Provincial City and the Eternal Tower, the opening of the life teleportation array requires two-way magic energy support, the Xiyue Provincial City is too far away from the Eternal Tower, and the opening of the teleportation array cannot borrow the power of the Eternal Tower, so it requires a large number of artificial magic crystals to open it once, although the artificial magic crystals used for the energy supply of the magic circle are very cheap, this is still a luxury trip.
Therefore, the empire has a rule that unless there is a major war or special circumstances, the life teleportation array cannot be opened at will, and Di Xue also feels that there is no need to use a life teleportation array with great fanfare in order to return to the Tower of Eternity.
So he asked, "Is there an airship landing field around here?"
Airship is the most common means of transportation on the Red Sea continent today, because of its cheap cost and advanced technology, it is widely used in the imperial civil transportation industry, many merchants will choose to rent airships for long-distance transportation, and military war airships are also the main combat force of the imperial air force.
A large war airship is much cheaper than a magic flying saucer, although the performance and attack power are completely incomparable to the magic flying saucer, but after all, this thing is cheap, and it is not a matter to build hundreds of ships with the financial resources of the empire, and it is best to fly up to scare those barbarian tribes in the desert of the far west......
Captain Richard thought for a moment and said, "Yes, there is a civilian airship take-off and landing field in nearby Binlan City. ”
Di Xue said: "Then take the airship back, you don't need to go to the Xiyue Provincial City to use the teleportation array." ”
Richard hesitated for a moment and still agreed to Di Xue's decision, the city of Xiyue Province is located in the south of Xiyue Province, there is still a way from here, Richard silently calculated the flight time of the airship, and the group rushed over to use the teleportation array is not much faster than going to the nearby Binlan City to take the airship back, as for the safety issue, it would be good to let the pro-guard team check the airship at that time.
At that moment, Xu Bo and Richard went to arrange for the royal guards to set off for camp, and Di Xue returned to his tent in the camp and found Taylor.
Taylor has changed out of casual clothes, put on the standard white clothes and silver armor of the Brotherhood of Light, her original equipment with a hem modified into a short skirt has long been thrown in Greenstod because it is too damaged, and now this is the original Brotherhood costume, Taylor's figure is already tall and slender, and now she wears a tight-fitting Brotherhood costume to show a more heroic and mysterious.
Her slender and straight legs were accentuated by her white trousers and boots decorated with silver armor, and her tuxedo was somewhat similar to a tuxedo, but unlike the tuxedo, the silver armor around her waist and abdomen was worn outside, wrapping the blouse, revealing a trace of delicate body curves just right but not exaggerated.
The only thing in white and silver is a wisp of crimson around the waist, which is a bright red tie that binds the light silver armor.
Compared with the original short skirt, the original fraternity costume can show a heroic temperament.
When Di Xue saw Taylor's outfit, her face was still calm, but she smiled in her heart, thinking of some things in the past
I remember that when Taylor first came to the Tower of Eternity, she was also dressed like this, at that time she had not changed her clothes to the short skirt she often wears now, remembering the appearance of Taylor when she was a child, it is simply a miniature version of what she is now.
Well...... But now it's not just an enlarged version of Girls' Generation, looking at the fully developed breasts that are even bigger because of the tight abdominal armor, Di Xue sighed in her heart, she really hasn't eaten in vain for so many years, and everything she eats has grown to where it should be, this is really excellent......
Ahem...... Returning to the memory, when Taylor first came to the Tower of Eternity, he was still very "small", so he wore the costume of the Brotherhood of Light like a little boy.
At that time, Di Xue finally had a playmate, and often joked with her, saying that you must be a boy if you are so cute.
Taylor belongs to the kind of girl who is born outside and familiar inside, she is silent in front of outsiders and has no sense of zài, she dares to say anything in front of Di Xue, whenever Di Xue says that she is like a boy, she also replies to him without showing weakness, you must be a girl if you are so beautiful!
Finally, one day, the two of them argued for a long time about who was more like a boy and who was more like a girl, and finally Taylor was defeated by Di Xue's sentence: "You have no significant feminine characteristics", and he was so angry that he left the Tower of Eternity for three days.
This made Di Xue very worried, and she didn't come back to eat with him, nor did she come back to take him out to play.
Hey, if she doesn't come back, she loves food so much, who else dares to raise her but him...... If she doesn't come back, who will take her out to play......
The young Emperor Xue stood on the observation deck of the cloud breeze layer, looked down 35 degrees at the white clouds that seemed to flow at his feet, and sighed brightly and sadly.
His eyes seemed to pass through the white clouds under his feet, looking for the white-clothed figure in the Eternal City.
When Di Xue couldn't help but send her personal guards to search for her in the city, Taylor returned, changing into a modified short skirt Brotherhood of Light costume.
She stood in front of Di Xue and said to him proudly: "Hmph, do you think I don't look like a boy now? Boys don't wear skirts! I don't believe you can change your face? So you're more like a girl!"
At that time, Di Xue looked at her with a smile and a smile, can she change her skirt and run out for three days without saying a word, there are not a lot of royal tailors in the Tower of Eternity......
Taylor pulled up the wide hood of his coat, walked up to Di Xue, who was squinting and smiling at her, and said to him, "What are you thinking?"
She asked what you were thinking instead of what you were laughing at, because she knew what he must have been thinking when he showed this smile, and looking at the curvature of the corners of his mouth, hum~~ It was definitely not thinking of anything good.
Di Xue reached out and pulled back the hood of the dress she had just pulled on, ruffled her long silky blonde hair, and said to her, "I was thinking that you don't look like a boy now." ”
Taylor was obviously still not very comfortable with Di Xue's affectionate behavior that he sometimes showed now, glared at Di Xue to avoid Di Xue's raging claws, and said to him, "Hmph, you still look like a girl now." ”
He didn't argue with her, but just said thoughtfully: "Although this body is also very good-looking, I still think that the short skirt is more beautiful, after all, the skirt is more in line with girls." ”
She gave him a blank look and said, "I wear it for convenience, not for good looks." ”
His eyes narrowed deeper, and he still had the faint smile that was harmless to humans and animals: "Mmmm, in fact, my Taylor looks good in everything, I like everything." ”
Taylor's face showed a hint of crimson, she straightened the hair that had been rubbed by Di Xue, pulled up the hood of her coat again, and muttered softly, "I didn't wear it for you." ”
His smile deepened, and he teased her a few more words before he asked expectantly, "Do you need to stay here, or come with me?"
Taylor snickered in her heart, if she wanted to ask this, she would have to say it earlier, she had to grind for so long, she said: "I don't have to stay here, it's enough to host Rongfeng here, the teacher is in Eternal City, I'll go back with you." ”
Originally, her itinerary was to return to the headquarters of the Brotherhood of Light in Xiyue Province, in order to deal with the Dark Brotherhood that suddenly appeared in the empire, the high-level of the Brotherhood of Light was going to hold a meeting to discuss how to deal with the Dark Brotherhood, but because of her accident, Master Herris went to the Fog Forest, and then temporarily went to Eternal City to meet His Majesty Yilan, so now the meeting place has also been changed to Eternal City, and she is now going back with Di Xue.
Di Xue breathed a sigh of relief, his relationship with Taylor had just been further developed, and he was really a little reluctant to separate so soon.
On the other hand, Rong Feng received an order from Master Herris to guard the recent turmoil in the Fog Forest, and on the other hand, he searched for traces of the Dark Brotherhood around the Fog Forest, where the Dark Brotherhood was last seen, and according to Taylor's memory, not all the assassins who assassinated her were chased into the Fog Forest at that time.
The Brotherhood of Light judged that the Dark Brotherhood was likely to have a stronghold in the towns around the Fog Forest, and the members of the Brotherhood of Light stationed outside the Fog Forest were only a small part, and most of the Brotherhood members who had recently gathered from all over the West Moon Province had been searching the surrounding towns around the Fog Forest, but so far they had not found any clues
Richard's movements were swift, and within an hour the Royal Guard had been assembled in camp.
Di Xue originally wanted to leave some guards to cooperate with the Brotherhood to monitor the movements of the Warcraft in the fog forest, but Xu Bo said that since last night, the Warcraft group has gradually dispersed and returned to the depths of the fog forest, and Richard also insisted that the Royal Guards must focus on protecting the royal family, and it is enough for the Warcraft Group to be monitored by the Brotherhood of Light and the provincial army, so Di Xue did not insist anymore.
He also knew in his heart that the group of demonic beasts in the fog forest would leave the territory abnormally and run to the edge of the fog forest because of the fluctuations in Greenstod's spirit seal, and it was unlikely that those who really left the fog forest would come out to make trouble, Di Xue felt that they were just afraid of the fluctuations of that seal.
Before leaving, Di Xue took a look at the fog forest surging in the smoke and rain from a distance, and the layers of clouds and fog were like a huge white wall, completely isolating the deep mountain forest from the outside world.
He suddenly had a feeling that the demonic beasts in the fog forest never came out of the fog forest...... Could it be because of this poisonous haze that has been endless for thousands of years?
Could it be that the haze, which has a violent toxic injury to humans, is actually protecting humans?
If this thick fog disappears...... Or if this fog moves, what about that qiē?
Di Xue was taken aback by his thoughts, which left a trace of vigilance in his heart, the fog forest is definitely a big danger in the Red Sea Continent, and it is also a big hidden danger in the empire, if the demonic beasts in the fog forest really come out one day, it will definitely be a disaster.
Moreover, it may not be a coincidence that the spiritual passage is not somewhere else, but here.
When he was in Greenstod, he had asked High Priest Weiner that above the spiritual seal was the center of the fog forest, and the center of the fog forest, the spirit seal, and the ancient tree of life were in a straight line, and it was hard for Di Xue to believe that there was nothing strange in this.
However, when he continued to inquire about what was in the center of the Fog Forest, he was vaguely dealt with by Priest Weiner.
At this time, Di Xue thought to herself, when she was strong enough, maybe she would return here and go to the center of the fog forest to have a look
Two hundred royal guards lined up neatly in the road, the golden armor was washed by the drizzle and then glued with fine raindrops, the bright red cloak was soaked into a deep red color, all the male black horses, and the saddle horse's head was covered with gold-inlaid armor.
People lead horses, all of them are motionless in the rain, like gorgeous and vivid statues, showing their iron blood and strength to the world, heaven and earth.
Xu Bo brought a horse in golden armor to Di Xue, the war horse walked with a proud step, the muscles of the male tendon and the bright fur showed its precious breed, when he stepped in front of Di Xue, he lowered his arrogant head and flattered the arch of Di Xue, which was very human.
Di Xue looked at Ma for a moment, this is his mount, Hei Feng, I didn't expect Uncle Xu to bring it too, I thought it was really thoughtful.
However, Di Xue did not ride the black wind, but looked at Taylor, who had already turned over on the horse, patted the black wind's head, and whispered to it, "I won't ride you today." ”
Then, under the pitiful eyes of Black Wind, Di Xue walked to Taylor's horse, and in her surprised gaze, she turned over and rode Taylor's horse and sat behind her.
Taylor felt the temperature on the man behind him, tilted his head slightly and said in shame: "What are you doing, go down quickly, go ride your black wind." ”
Di Xue leaned sideways in her ear and gave a very simple answer: "No." ”
She wanted to persuade her again, but then he said something that silenced her.
He had a faint magical light curtain on his body to prevent the rain from wetting his clothes and body, and he sat with her at this time, and the magic light curtain also surrounded her, and no rain could hit her again.
He gently patted the raindrops off her white dress and whispered in her ear, "So that you won't get wet from the rain." ”
Then he naturally hugged her waist, took the reins in her hand, controlled the horse to make a circle on the spot, and said to the people behind him, "Let's go." ”
Uncle Xu shrugged his shoulders and dragged the black wind down. Captain Richard secretly gave a thumbs up to Dexue.
The guards mounted in unison, their crimson cloaks dancing through the veil in the air.
As the team slowly moved, she had no choice but to accept her fate, and gradually leaned into his warm and solid embrace behind her.
The stares of others still made her a little shy, but she still thought sweetly in her heart: I don't know when he started to be so considerate.
