Chapter 850: The more formal the occasion, the more people can't help but want to joke
It's an exciting time, and the central square of Chebell City is packed with people, heads are thriving, and discussions are buzzing. And in the middle of the square, there is a huge magic teleportation array. It had clearly completed all the preparations, and the complex lines were emitting a shimmer of color, as if the next second it would suddenly activate to burst out a large amount of light and produce some kind of astonishing effect.
A tall rostrum was set up in the square, and Alicia and her friends were standing on it and surveying the crowd below. To be honest, the little queen's size is really quite sad.,Seeing that I'm going to be an adult next year, I'm still pocket-sized.,I'm talking about the cute Lori body.,Even Imrith is about to be incomparable--Of course, the two sisters still look about the same size at the moment.,But wait until next year.,It's estimated that you'll hear a beautiful blonde girl stealing the incomparably classic sentence "Sisters are actually the scariest creatures on this shijie.,Because they always unknowingly surpass you in height" 's lines are full of bitterness and helplessness to sigh.
Naturally, more than 30,000 people could not all be crammed into the square, and the expedition actually lined up all the way to two blocks away. And those who can serve as pioneers in the square are mostly powerful adventurers and large mercenary guilds. These people usually have made a little reputation in the Western Continent, and even in a small principality, they are still heroes admired by everyone, and have created a large number of legendary stories, but at this moment they all set their reverent eyes on the rostrum, just because there is a blonde girl who is revered as a "living legend" by the whole continent.
Alicia is wearing a slightly thicker snow-white gothic dress today. There was a warm ring of velvet near the collar and cuffs, and with her long hair that reflected the sheen of the rice ears in the sun, she looked like a large and delicate doll. looked at the nearby Kezi and drooled.
Of course, the incomparably loving Lily Double Ponytail Evil God was soon attacked by the smiling Asami when she tried to get close to Alicia, and she retreated with tears streaming down her face.
There are photos of this peerless little beauty, and even the propaganda video of the Birea Empire where she appeared, and the people on the continent have basically seen it, and they all shocked Alicia and gnashed their teeth at Ilya. Fortunately, most people are good law-abiding citizens, and they have not done things such as arson and arson and arson to people, otherwise Ilya, who is known as an immortal little powerhouse, is possessed by the god of war and does not want to escape the tragic end of being scorched into a black mosaic by the surging crowd.
The above burned heterosexuals or something, in short, despite seeing the photos and videos, it was the first time for most people to see Alicia herself, and the photos and images were a bit distorted in some places. Therefore, it is not surprising that when the little queen stepped onto the podium, there was a series of low exclamations.
For safety reasons, Alicia decisively let Ilya hide among her friends behind as a passerby, and chose Imrith to accompany her. But nearly ninety percent of the members of the Little Queen's team are women. The other two men were a handsome but unkempt one-eyed uncle and a masked man in a cloak with an unknown body and a cold temperament (Wei Chimu, who was deliberately dressed like this to avoid being recognized by acquaintances in the Eastern Continent), and the black-haired boy was still very conspicuous even though he was hiding insideβsure enough, after everyone was amazed by Alicia, it didn't take long for someone to point at Ilya and turn his head and ears.
[You are destined to be envied, envied and hated by others. I hope you don't be dragged to a remote place by the following group of pink eye when you are alone......]
"Ahem!" Alicia picked up the topic and coughed vigorously. "I'll start with the statement. It's okay for you to stare at him viciously and spread your eyes and attack, but it's absolutely not allowed to throw stones, eggs, gasoline, torches, collective beatings, and popping chrysanthemums by the way?"
Dibes, who was standing behind the little queen, flashed his waist on the spot when he heard the words, and wanted to step forward and reach out and hold her shoulder to stop it, but realized that it was in public, so he had to stop his movements with a full face.
Adventurers are free and unrestrained guys, they rarely pay attention to etiquette, Alysia had just half-jokingly posed to Ilya to protect the calf, and someone at the bottom asked loudly: "Queen Bixia, since you care about him so much." So how far have you two got? Aren't you already quite close?"
I saw that Alicia suddenly blushed and lowered her head, holding her cheeks in her hands, gently swaying her body and twisting: "Alas, what should I say." Although he did treat me very gently. But I don't mind if it's a little tougher once in a while, right?"
"Whoaββ!?
The girls standing near Ilya immediately jumped away from the black-haired boy, staring at him vigilantly with scumbag eyes, only Siggs showed a rather lewd and evil expression on his face, stepped forward and stretched out his arms to hook his shoulders and bared his teeth at Ilya and smiled: "You kid is quite capable, you got her hands on her so quickly." Tell me, how does it taste?"
"Uh, what does it mean?"
Although Imrith continued to spew a large amount of water vapor above her head, and the whole person was like a boiling kettle, she still desperately resisted the feeling of dizziness, grabbed Alicia's sleeve, and asked nervously, "Sister, sister, you two are really ...... Anyway, when did this happen, weishenme, you didn't tell Ise?"
"Ah, this is obviously a joke, right?" said the embarrassed Alicia with a cold sweat on her head and black lines, "What are you all going to do if you all take it seriously?"
"You are the one who really wants to make trouble!" "Angel, who finally couldn't help it, pounced from behind and pulled out a paper fan and slapped it on the top of the little queen's head, "This is an extremely serious formal occasion, isn't it the activity room in the old building behind the Garden of Hope, and in this case, you joke about your own scandal decently, is it possible that there are no tendons in your head!?"
"Well, don't you think that the more formal the occasion, the more people can't help but want to joke?"
"You're right. Angel, who had a big green tendon on her head, decisively grabbed the petite blonde girl, viciously strangled her slender white neck with her arms from behind, and gritted her teeth. "In that case, it should be harmless for me to make a little joke with you like this, right?"
"I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I'm really going to die!" Alicia grabbed Angel's arm with one hand and slapped it the surface with the other. "I'm sorry, Sister Anqi. I know it's wrong, so please raise your hand and let me go. β
The girl knight sighed angrily and let go of the blonde girl, while Alicia tidied up her clothes casually, took out a chair from the bracelet and climbed up to further enhance her presence, raised the microphone and rushed to the top of the five thunders, and the embarrassed crowd with black lines and cold sweat on the top of her head shouted: "Everyone, what I just did doesn't count, I'm just joking." And feed. The reporter over there who is full of excitement and is struggling to write, although I don't know what you wrote, but there is already a large amount of evil gray mist behind you, okay!?
With a decisive wave of his hand, Dibes immediately rushed over and forcibly invited the female reporter of a small newspaper that God knows which one relied on lace news to eat - until this point. The reporters who were thinking about whether they should add a little oil and vinegar to the report suddenly realized that the petite girl on the rostrum who was light and soft was the queen of the strongest empire in the Western Continent, not an ordinary girl who could be teased casually.
Hawkers, although formal reports can't be written casually. But it doesn't matter how you get the grapevine. looked at the reporters nearby who were calm and confident, and smiled slightly. Rao is Alicia can't help but feel a trace of pain.
"OK, no more gossip then. After the scene stabilized, Alicia turned back to Dibes and ordered, "Senior, go and activate the teleportation array." The Eastern Continent Expedition conducted by our Western Continent Alliance has officially begun!"
"Huh?" the blue-haired handsome guy was stunned for a moment, "But Queen Bixia, didn't you make a speech before you set out?"
"Adventurers don't have much interest in this kind of scene. And ......," said Alicia, glancing at the audience, "once you've decided to do something." They'll do it with all their might, and we don't need to push it up. These people are never lacking in enthusiasm, and if I say something on stage, it's just a superfluous move. Go, Dibes, and don't keep our friends in the Eastern Continent waiting too long. β
"Yes, Queen Bixia. β
ββββββββββββββββββββI'm the dividing lineββββββββββββββββ
Wei Chimu did not bring his adjutant and personal soldiers, and even left them on the Western Continent. Because the young general knew that if Gongsun Yi found out that he was not dead when he returned to the Eastern Continent this time, he would definitely suffer all kinds of troubles from the emperor in the future, and even implicate Alicia to make her embarrassed inside. If he was alone, the chances of being found would be greatly reduced, and Wei Chimu could do something else while the emperor's attention was not on him.
For example, secretly picking up relatives from their hometown and so on.
Originally, after coming to the Western Continent, Yu Chimu never thought that he would be able to go back one day. The purpose of the ruthless Gongsun Yi's exile was to make Wei Chimu disappear forever in front of him, not to swagger back in front of everyone with the documents on the establishment of diplomatic relations of the Western Continent Alliance. However, this could not stop Wei Chimu from missing his hometown, so when he heard that Alicia was preparing to recruit adventurers to rescue the Eastern Continent that was attacked by demons, the young general decisively found the little queen and offered to join her team.
To Yu Chimu's surprise, Alicia seemed to have a deep understanding of oriental culture, and she readily agreed to the former's request without any conditions, which made Yu Chimu very grateful. Although he had to hide his face and pretend to be the little queen's guard, Wei Chimu did not complain about it, his mind had already flown back to his hometown one step ahead.
But when Yu Chimu followed the beautiful little queen through the gate of space and came to the land of the Eastern Continent, he was stunned on the spot.
Obviously, it was once a city, but many of the buildings have been destroyed, leaving only the ruins of the ground. Blades, armor, muskets, and even artillery could be seen everywhere, and the remains of a huge mechanical weapon that God knows what it was used for, stuck in the street not far away. Presumably it was there that I resisted the appearance of zuihou. However, no remains were found around, neither humans nor demons, so it was probably taken away by the enemy as a material for making the undead.
"General Wei Chimu. Do you know this city?" asked in a whisper as Alicia pulled the stunned Wei Chimu's sleeve as he leaned back, "Can you figure out where we are?"
"From now on, please call me Billy, Queen Bixia. Wei Chimu gently reminded, "I am just a guard and tactical staff officer with you, not some Ming Empire general who was exiled to the Western Continent. β
"I'm sorry. So Uncle Billy, do you know where we are at the moment?"
So what's going on with that uncle, hey!?Wei Chi Mu frowned slightly imperceptibly, but quickly straightened his mood and said, "I'm sorry." bixiaγ Even though I knew the city very well, I didn't recognize it at the moment. This is supposed to be the city used by the Ming Empire to house teleportation equipment, and we will appear here as already explained. But...... The demon seems to be advancing with some ferocity. It's only been a few months since the Coalition last detected teleportation. The city has already fallen, and it has even been completely swept away by the other party. I propose to leave the city first and gather troops in the wilderness, and then find a way to find a city controlled by the Ming Empire to make contact with them. β
[This thing doesn't think of himself as a person of the Ming Empire at all, should I say that as a tactical expert, he behaved perfectly?]
"Oh well. Icarus. You go and scout around. Alicia called to the pink angel beside her and instructed, "Remember to hide yourself, I don't want to attract the attention of the demon right now." So please don't do things like take out the map cannon and blow the opponent to slag, only this is absolutely forbidden. β
When Icarus heard this, his wings immediately shrugged down, and he replied lightly, "Yes, master." β
"Wait a minute, what's going on with that disappointed look on your face, are you really planning to plow the ground with Apollo or something!?"
"Can't?" the beautiful angel girl confirmed, tilting her head.
"Why are you learning to sell cuteness one by two?It's useless for you to sell cuteness, you can't just can't!" Alicia taught the consciousness of the friends around her without words and deeds. Shaking his head vigorously, he said loudly, "Mercury lamp." Just in case you go with her, I don't want to make a fuss about a skyrocketing explosion at the other end of the horizon just outside the city. β
The chairman who was named by the blonde girl pursed his lips a little unpleasantly, but he didn't refuse: "Okay, just watch this pink hair and don't let her use the map cannon casually...... What are you doing, hey!?"
Icarus took the mercury lamp in his arms from behind, and rubbed it back and forth on his choppy chest several timesβthe ever-shifting curves that made him breathe from his nostrils.
Yue Ge didn't squint, raised his legs and kicked the lone wolf leader with a calm face.
Seeing this, Alicia was a little puzzled, but she didn't ask much, but reached out and patted the little doll that was struggling in the arms of the pink angel and said, "Give up, mercury lamp." Ever since the moment Icarus stopped holding the watermelon, you couldn't escape the fate of being held by her all the time. β
"Ulusaiββ! you don't talk cool there, hurry up and let this stupid goose angel let me go!"
The blonde girl decisively ignored the annoyed chairman, raised her head gracefully and looked at Icarus and smiled, "Then be careful all the way, and come back as soon as you find the nearest human city, you know?"
βhaodeοΌmasterγ I set off. After Icarus finished speaking, he shook off his wings with the mercury lamp and flew into the sky, leaving only the chairman dragging the elder's mournful voice echoing in the ears of the speechless people who looked at the sky, and it did not disperse for a long time.
"Sister, sister, it doesn't matter to her, right?" Imrith stepped forward and gently tugged at Elicia's cuff and asked with a pretty face.
The blonde queen immediately replied with her hands on her hips solemnly: "Of course it doesn't matter, she's a very important pillow, uh, it's not right, the doll, it doesn't seem to be, anyway, Icarus will definitely cherish her." β
Leonard also led some of his subordinates through the space gate at this moment, and after looking around, he couldn't help but be stunned: "The creator god is above, isn't it possible that we are late?"
Alicia beckoned to the mercenary leader, summoned him to him, and said, "Then Leonard, from now on the team will be handed over to you." Compared to me as a mascot, the adventurers are obviously more willing to trust the coordination and command of the old mercenary guild. You can mobilize all the resources provided by the Alliance for adventurers in this expedition, including food, medicine, weapons and equipment, transportation, including my squad, under your command, but there is a smaller army, which is commanded by a knightly general of the Roland Empire, and has been given a special mission, so don't ask for them if you have nothing to do. β
The blonde girl refers to the tank unit created by the research team led by Arad, and the general as a knight will board these land steel behemoths to command the battle and conduct actual combat tests on the tanks, but Leonard obviously misunderstood this passage to mean that the alliance sent this force to "stabilize", so he nodded solemnly and said, "Please rest assured, Queen Bixia." I'm not going to take them out to fight the fire. (To be continued......)
