Endless vast other world

Chapter 19

morning has come.

King Buson had already prepared the carriage, entourage and various travel appliances for the three of them.

Pulev personally selected a few royal knights with extraordinary skills from the Royal Knights, and joined Kongzhen's team.

When Sora came to the carriage, Fu Nuo and Karen had been waiting there for a long time.

The two of them, one standing in front of the convoy and the other standing behind the convoy, stood at a certain distance.

Even Kong Zhen can see that the relationship between the two is very bad.

Sora saw that the convoy was very impressive.

The guide who leads the way is a hale and hearty old man.He rode an old horse and was at the forefront of the procession.The old horse had many scars on its body.It seems that, like the old man, it has been weather-beaten.

Behind the old horse, followed by three tall horses.These three horses are strong, tall, and have bright coats.He also wore a lot of decorations on his body.It should be the horse that Sorama and the others are going to ride.

Behind the steed are more than a dozen carriages.Each carriage is pulled by four royal horses.The carriages are filled with all kinds of travel supplies.

There are several royal knights in the convoy.They also rode war horses.Some are in charge of the rear to ensure the safety of supplies.Some escorts are around the team.

Sora laboriously loaded the battle clothes onto the carriage behind, and was ready to go.

This is, a person came running from afar, calling Kong Zhen's name.

Sora stopped and turned around to see that it was Ke Ni running from afar.

He quickly jumped out of the carriage and walked to her side.

Kerney came in a hurry, out of breath.

She half bent down, put her hands on her knees, and rested for a while before she had the strength to speak.

"Kong, Kongzhen... are you going to fight an evil dragon?"

"Yeah. How did you know?"

"I heard it from others... Sora, you have to think about it, it's a dragon! A dragon!"

"Relax, Kenney." Sora comforted her.

"I'm sure I'll be fine. Just go and come back..."

Kerney grabbed at his clothes.

"Why didn't you tell me about it?"

"I'm not, I'm afraid you're worried..."

Over there, Kallen has already mounted her horse.She urged Sora impatiently.

"I said, how long are you going to dawdle?"

Worried that time would be too late, Sora could only bid farewell to Ke Ni in a hurry.

"Don't worry, I will definitely come back safely!"

Before Ke Ni could say anything, Sora hurriedly got on his horse.

He flicked the reins lightly, and the horse jumped out like an arrow off the string.

Sora rode out for a long time and couldn't help but look back.

Kenny was still standing there, seeing him off.

Sora also kept looking back.Until Ke Ni's figure disappeared bit by bit.

Sora couldn't help but think: What kind of mood is Ke Ni at this moment?Is it the same as the one who bid farewell to her on a moonlit night?

Karen's voice interrupted his thoughts.She looked at Kongzhen who had been looking back, and sneered.

"I heard that the two of you have hugged each other for a long time in the arena of the Linton Cup competition in public, right now? You are so reluctant now. Do you want to hug for a while?"

Sora hasn't responded yet, and Mr. Funo behind him is angry.

"Karen! What on earth are you trying to do? Taunting Sora just because you didn't win the game?"

Kallen was not polite: "Is what I said not the truth? On the contrary, you, why are you in such a hurry to speak for Kongzhen in a hurry? Could it be..."

Karen deliberately prolonged her voice: "Could it be, you like him too..."

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Fu Nuo blushed.She pulled out the dagger at her waist at once.

"What's the matter, do you want to compete with me?"

Karen didn't show any weakness, and immediately wanted to untie the iron chains wrapped around her body, wanting to compete with Fu Nuo.

Who knew, she moved too much.The horse under the crotch was frightened, kicked its front hooves and ran wildly.

Karen didn't pay attention, and was about to be thrown off the horse.

Kongzhen next to her, with quick eyes and quick hands, turned sideways on his horse's back and caught Karen.

Thanks to him!Only then did Karen stabilize her horse and not be thrown off.

Karen lay on the horse, still in shock.

Sora asked with concern: "Are you alright?"

Just now he was still mocking Kong Zhen, but in a blink of an eye, Kong Zhen helped him.Kallen immediately felt that she couldn't hold back her face.

"Who asked you to help me? Who do you think you are, my maid! If you didn't pull me just now, I can still hold the horse!"

Karen pulled the reins, steered the horse, and quickly took a few steps forward, surpassing Sora.

Afterwards, she unhappily made up the knife to Sora.

"It's all your fault! It's all about you. During the Linton Cup, you fired a magic ray at the legs of my war horse, causing my horse to be injured. This time, I couldn't fight! I had to find another horse An unfamiliar horse to ride. Hmph! If I was still riding the familiar horse, why would I almost fall off? It’s all your fault!”

"Do you still have a conscience?" Fu Nuo couldn't help but scolded Karen angrily.

"If it wasn't for Kongzhen's kindness to give you a hand just now, you must have fallen on your back! Not only did you not thank you, but you even accused him!"

"Besides, you still blame Sorama for hurting your horse? Don't you know? Sorama could have killed you directly with a magic ray at that time! But he didn't do that, he already tried every means to protect you !"

"In my opinion, Kongzhen shouldn't be soft-hearted at that time! He should have killed you directly on the field!"

While Fu Nuo was still yelling angrily, Karen was already riding a horse, leaving them far away and walking to the front.

Sora wanted to remind Kallen not to walk too fast and get too far away from the team.After all, the distance is long and the terrain is complex.If you don't follow the guide, you may get lost.

but.Looking at Fu Nuo who was still looking furious beside him, Sora thought twice before swallowing the words.Because he knew that saying these words would probably add fuel to the fire and make Fu Nuo even more angry.

Rescuing the princess is a big task that requires the unity of the team.

Seeing the disintegrated team that existed in name only, Sora really didn't want to intensify the conflict.

It's only been a long time since we've been on the road, so it's not going well.Sora could not help but worry a little, whether this mission could be completed.

In order to appease Fu Nuo at the side, Sora really wanted to chat with her, but he didn't know what to talk about.

At this time.Sora suddenly smelled a burst of fragrance.

At first, he mistook it for the fragrance of flowers from the suburbs.However, looking left and right, there are no flowers nearby.

The aroma is very strong.It's hard for Kong to not smell it.

After repeated confirmation, Souma found that this fragrance seemed to come from Fu Nuo who was beside him.

Kong Zhen said cautiously: "Fu Nuo, you smell really good..."

When Fu Nuo heard it, she blushed instantly.

"You, what are you talking about... how can there be any fragrance..."

"But, but, there really is... Fu Nuo, are you wearing perfume..."

When Fu Nuo heard it, she became even more flustered.

She lowered her head subconsciously, fiddling with the reins in her hand.

"Now, in Boqi City, when the two of us met for the first time, didn't you say that I obviously smelled like a horse... So, I thought, spray some perfume..."

Sora recalled this incident.He felt very embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... At that time, I thought you were a bad person, so... please don't care..."

"Sora, wait a minute. You mean to say. When you think I'm a bad person, you'll say it. If you think I'm a good person, you won't say..."

"In other words, I do smell like a horse. Sora, do you mean that..."

Sora felt it, a murderous aura came from Fu Nuo.A burst of extremely terrifying murderous intent.

Only then did Sora react.What I should have done just now was to try my best to deny that Fu Nuo smelled like a horse.

"Yes, sorry...that's not what I meant..."

"Forget it..." Fu Nuo didn't pursue it.

"I'm a royal knight. I spend a lot of time riding on horses every day. It's inevitable that I will have a taste..."

All of a sudden, the atmosphere between Fu Nuo and Sora fell to freezing point.

Kong really wanted to slap himself.

He forcibly changed the subject again...

"Yes, that's right. That, that... Funo, Gunnar released poisonous mist during the Linton Cup final. Many people in the audience inhaled that poisonous mist. I really want to listen to it again. Said, the poisonous mist floated into the air and spread throughout the entire capital. Are people all right?"

"Oh, that's really a big tragedy." Fu Nuo said in a low tone.

"That poisonous mist is made with the most insidious black magic. It is said that after inhaling that poisonous mist, you will have hallucinations and see the deepest fear in your heart."

"At that time, not to mention the audience present. Even the royal magicians who came to reinforce, many of them inhaled the poisonous mist, fainted on the spot, and even died."

"This is no longer a doctor's treatment. A first-class pharmacist is necessary."

"Fortunately. The chief royal pharmacist, Miriam, is highly skilled. She concocted an antidote and successfully saved many lives."

When Sora heard Miriam's name, he couldn't help but think about the case of the shapeshifting potion.

he asked Fu Nuo.

"I heard that Gunnar took the shape-changing potion, so he changed his shape, didn't he?"

"Yes. When Helenburg investigated later, the body of the real Oga was found in an inn. He was killed by black magic. It should be Gunnar."

Sora said: "But, where did Gunnar get the transformation potion?"

"You hit the point." Fu Nuo said.

"According to the information we have, in the entire Helenburg, I am afraid that only the chief royal pharmacist, Miriam, is capable of formulating the transformation potion."

"You mean, don't you..."

"No. Miriam is very reliable. Seventeen years ago, she even took the initiative to participate in the Wilfried War, and went to the front line to save lives and heal the wounded. No matter what, no one wants to believe that she will be a demon family."

"Then, who is it that concocted the transformation potion?"

"Hellenberg is still investigating. Maybe, maybe, there are also highly skilled pharmacists on the demon side."

Sora felt vaguely that this matter was not as simple as he thought.

Speaking of the Wilfried War, Sorama couldn't help asking Funo curiously.

"Furno. Terry and Commander Prive seem to be comrades who fought side by side in the Wilfried War. Do you know the story about the two of them?"

Fu Nuo shook his head.

"By the time I was born, the Wilfried War had ended. I really don't know much about the story of Commander Pleiff and Terry."

"Mr. Terry is a good man, though. If it hadn't been for his help, you wouldn't be eligible for the Warrington Cup."

"Yes." Sora sighed.

"After all, the Linton Cup competition is over. I had hoped that he could stay in Herringborg for a while longer. In this way, I would have time to thank him. Who would have thought that during the month when I was recuperating, he I left the human kingdom again, and started a wandering life.”

"Who says it's not?" Fu Nuo said.

"Captain Pulev also hopes that he can stay in the kingdom for a longer period of time. The two old friends can talk about the past. But Mr. Terry doesn't seem to like the human kingdom very much, so he insisted and left."

Kong Zhen said: "He once told me his story. After experiencing the baptism of war, he no longer wants to be a blacksmith. Moreover, he does not want to respect a human being as a king. For him, he may be more Like the life of wandering around."

"By the way! Now, without the elf eyes, can you really deal with that evil dragon?" Fu Nuo worried.

"It should be fine." Sora could only say this in order to reassure Fu Nuo.

In fact, he was also a little worried.Will he be able to rescue the princess?

"If I were you, I would discuss it with Ouya. See if she is willing to lend me the eyes of the elves for a while. She is also a little too anxious. Once Gunnar is killed by you, the game is over , she asked you to return the elf eye to her, and then left..."

"Don't say that." Kong Zhen said.

"Ouya was originally the guardian of the elves' eyes. Protecting the elves' eyes is her mission. At the beginning, she just borrowed my battle clothes and temporarily kept the elves' eyes. Now it's not very easy to return them to their original owners. okay."

"The reason why she returned to the Yinqi Forest is because there are still a lot of things waiting for her to do. For example, Gunnar completely destroyed the Yinqi Forest. After Ouya returns with the eyes of the elves, she must find ways to rebuild it. Hidden Qi Forest."

"Although Gunnar was killed, the threat of the Demon King still exists. It is conceivable that there must be many other people who peek into the eyes of the elves. As a guardian, Ouya still cannot be taken lightly."

Fu Nuo said: "Then, she might as well leave the elf eyes in Helenburg. There are so many experts in Helenburg, and the devil dare not invade. Isn't it safer than that forest?"

Sora smiled.

"Every race has its own holy artifacts to protect. More than 1000 years ago, the elves put the eyes of the elves in the Yinqi forest, and there must be their reasons. In my opinion, the eyes of the elves are still placed in the Yinqi forest. It's better in the forest. And, according to what you said, wouldn't it be necessary to put all the holy artifacts in Helenburg?"

"You said, now, do we humans also have sacred artifacts?" Fu Nuo was curious.

Sora shrugged.

"Who knows. Maybe there are."

"Ah! In a blink of an eye, we lost two partners!" Fu Nuo sighed.

"I hope they have a smooth journey. Maybe we can meet them again in the future!"

Sora sincerely wished the two friends.

"Oh, oh. You were recuperating some time ago, and I couldn't see you, so I almost forgot to tell you. Didn't you ask me to go to Boqi City and tell the catgirls and sisters about you?"

"That's right, that's right. I promised Ellie and Ai Nai at the beginning. As long as I have news about Ke Ni, I will definitely tell them."

"I sneaked out of the palace while the people in Herringborg were not paying attention, went to Boqi City, told Ellie and Ai Nai the news that you won the Linton Cup and rescued Kenny. After listening to it, I was very happy."

"Also." Fu Nuo smiled slyly.

"I also gave them a bag of gold coins in your name..."

"What! Wait, that bag of gold coins, could it be..."

"You guessed it right! It's the bag of gold coins I gave you when I first met you in the Boqi City Guild."

"You didn't accept it at the beginning, but you gave it back to me later. I simply gave the bag of gold coins to the sisters, saying that you gave them."

"Oh, this..." Sora felt a little embarrassed.

"However, it's really good for you to give them money. Ai Li and Ai Nai depend on each other and live in poverty. Two kind girls live in a place like the inner city. I have always been a little worried about whether something will happen to them .Besides, Ai Nai is recovering from a serious illness and really needs money. Originally, I planned to give some to them after saving some money."

Fu Nuo continued: "In the beginning, the two of them refused to accept it. I had no choice but to tell them that their elder brother Kongzhen won the Linton Cup, and now he is already a prominent party in the capital. Not to mention enjoying countless wealth, there are countless beauties around him at any time, vying to marry him... In short, this little money is just a little bit of meaning to Kongzhen today."

"After they listened to it, they were willing to accept it. However, they still insisted that this bag of gold coins is only for temporary borrowing. When they have money, they will definitely return it to you..."

Kong Zhen only heard half of it, and he was already sweating profusely.

"Wait, wait! Wait! What's going on? Why? What countless beauties are vying to marry me... Aren't you just making it up..."

"Ah, ah, ah...why do you care so much about these..."

"Of course I care! My reputation seems to have gotten worse..."

"Oh, don't be so concerned about these small details... Anyway, just send the money away..."

"Funuo, Funuo, wait a moment. I'm still very concerned... You didn't tell anyone except Ellie and Ai Nai about the nonsense just now..."

Sora was sweating profusely.

Fu Nuo said: "Let me think about it... um... Actually, I didn't tell many people... But that is, for example, the owner of the hotel, and the owner's daughter Ina, and the guild's waiter Qiao ,besides……"

"Wait a minute! Wait a moment!"

Makoto was about to cry.

"You, you, you... Isn't that equivalent to telling everyone..."

"Hmm...Thinking about it this way, it seems to be really..." Fu Nuo said.

"Why? Why exactly?"

Kong really crazy.

"Why do you tell others about these irrelevant things..."

"Didn't I kindly help you? Think about it, Kongma. Now that you have finally become famous, I am helping you spread your reputation..."

"A good name? A good name? Is it a good name? It's over, it's over. Ellie, Ai Nai, Jo, Ina...they will definitely think I'm a pervert...Damn it..."

"Oh, it's not that bad, Sorama. At most, they just think you're a philandering radish..."

"Isn't that bad? Isn't that bad?"

Kong really wants to cry but has no tears.

"Wait!" Sora reacted.

"Fu Nuo, you...you won't, you did it on purpose..."

"Hmm..." Fu Nuo pretended to be contemplative.

"Maybe..." Fu Nuo said.

"Why? Why? Fu Nuo, why did you deliberately tarnish my reputation?"

"It's so noisy! There are so many reasons! I just see you are upset!"

Fu Nuo didn't tell Sora, the reason is actually very simple.

Because Ke Ni hugged Sora in front of everyone in the Linton Cup arena.

Fu Nuo was really jealous.

So, a little revenge.

Just like that, the two walked forward noisily.

suddenly.At this moment.

In the distance, a large group of horseshoes sounded.

Sora couldn't help but tense up.Will something unexpected happen?

The entire convoy was also on alert immediately.

He quickly got off his horse and stood on a high place to look out.

Wow!
It turned out to be a large group of horse race girls running in the wilderness.

This is really a spectacular scene.

They are not marching in an orderly line.Instead, they are competing.

A racehorse lady had just desperately rushed to the front.The other one will be more aggressive, trying to surpass her with all its strength.

Seen from a distance, their team raised a large cloud of dust.

The guide looked at it.

"It's okay, it's okay. It's the horse girl training. Let's continue on our way."

On the way, Sora asked the guide curiously: "Is this the way horse race girls train? It's really hard work."

The guide replied: "They should all be racehorse girls from Oberstein. They must work hard."

"Oberstein? Where is that?"

"Don't you know? Oberstein is a famous horse racing city in the kingdom."

Sora couldn't help but recall.Terry and Ouya were also helped by a racehorse girl who happened to be passing by, and they managed to rush to the capital.

If there is a chance, I must find that racehorse girl and thank her very much.

The team is getting farther and farther away from the kingdom.

This team just embarked on an unknown journey.
