Transcendent Noble

Charlotte ordered to rest in place, waiting for His Royal Highness Randal's arrival. The expeditionary force immediately began operations, building temporary camps and sending out scout squads to expand the scope of investigation, collecting resources in the forest by the way, and replenishing the increasingly depleted material reserves.

All the homunculus are experts in field survival, and the militia craftsmen loaded with construction skills are also good at taking local materials and building functional houses. They wielded the tools in their hands with power far beyond ordinary people, leveled the ground, felled trees, and built seven or eight simple wood houses in only half a day.

As Charlotte said, the expeditionary army has traveled thousands of kilometers continuously, and the important members of the team are mentally tense and exhausted. They all need to adjust for a period of time. With these wood houses, you can finally take a hot bath without curling up in a narrow shack, and everyone's faces have a relaxed smile.

The happiest person is Bertina. The scenery of this wooded swamp is like a fairy tale world. After a long time, it may make people tired of the humidity, but Bell has lived since remembering. The lizard swamp and the mist in the woodland were nothing to her, and she had only been here for a day, and she hadn't had enough.

Bertina is the key protection target of the expeditionary army, and her small wood house is located in the center of the camp. Considering that this forest is a bit weird, Charlotte arranges for the blood python Marcy and Bell to live together. The blood python Marcy is very happy to take care of Bell. She is not only a ferocious warrior of the silver rank, but also a very maternal woman. At the beginning, in order to join the Randal Family, she followed the will of her master and cut off the contact with the refugee family. Although it is inevitable to care for her children in secret, Marcy could not live with her children, so her maternal love transferred to Bertina. Body.

Because of this, Victor tried to match Marcy and Imerson. Unfortunately, Marcy wanted to have a child with the Knight aristocrat. Imerson did not meet her criteria for mate selection. But this does not prevent Marcy from liking Bertina. After dinner, she took Bell in a hot bath and told her two short stories. When Bell fell asleep, Marcy kissed her. , The chubby little face, just hug her to rest.

At midnight, Bertina heard a familiar and strange sound, which was the buzzing of Flying Insect's wings. Since acting with the Dragon Maid, she hasn't heard the buzzing of Flying Insect for a long time. Bell opened his eyes in a daze, and saw a little man with dragonfly wings on his back flying past the tip of his nose. It happened to see Bell open his eyes and flew to the wall in fright, hiding in the gap between the logs.

"Flower fairy...Marcy, look at the flower fairy!"

The surprised Bertina stretched out her hand to push Marcy beside her, but Marcy was sleeping very deep. There is no response at all. Bell again saw the flower fairy peeking out of its head, and then flying out of the gap in the wall to the outside of the house. She couldn't restrain her strong curiosity, jumped out of bed barefoot, and ran outside the wood house to find the flower fairy that halfling adventurers often talk about.

The moonlight is quiet, and the entire camp is very quiet. Even the fierce war dogs and bear dogs are curled up to sleep on the ground. Bell kicked the "white bread" shrinking at the door with his white and tender feet. He wanted to bring It went to find the fairy, but the sleeping fierce dog ignored his Young Lord at all. At this time, the flower fairy with two pairs of dragonfly wings flew in front of Bell again. She ignored the lesson of the sleepy "white bread", chasing the flower fairy into the misty forest swamp.

The flower fairy seems to be playing hide-and-seek games with Bertina. It appears and disappears from time to time, but it will always let the little girl find herself. Bertina's cheerful laughter echoed in the quiet forest.

"Bell, little lazy pig, get up soon. You won't get up again, Akka’s breakfast is not your share." Marcy’s magnetic voice rang in her ears, and Bertina suddenly heard from I sat up on the bed, stupefied for two seconds, and hurriedly jumped out of the bed, raised his little feet and looked at it, and muttered, "So it's a dream?"

"Little lazy pig, you What good dreams did you have?" Marcy asked gently with a smile.

"I dreamed of a flower fairy, it played hide-and-seek with me." Bell frowned, and said unhappily: "You scared it away."

An obscure rays of light flashed deep in Qian’s eyes, smiling and putting on Bell’s armor and footwear, and taking her out to rinse her mouth and wash her face. When the little girl hopped to eat breakfast, she turned and found Charlotte. Mrs. Te and Pastor Dane told them about Bell's situation.

Charlotte Willow frowned, and said softly: "Flower fairy? The halfling brother told some stories about flower fairy. They are the incarnation of the forest and represent good luck. Only those who are favored by the forest will do it. Encountering the Flower Fairy... Bell just dreamed of meeting the Flower Fairy. It seems that there is nothing wrong with it?"

Marcy said worriedly: "However, it seems that everyone in the team except Bell will not dream."

"Bell has not seriously practiced the secret bloodline of the soul taught by His Royal Highness Randal, she can dream and it is normal." Dane thought for a while, got up and said: "Let me go and see, all the dark and evil are there. There is nothing to hide under the light of our lord."

At noon, the pastor reported that he had not found any problems with Bell. Charlotte was still a little worried, and that night she took Bell to Laila's hut to rest. The dragon maid, Laila, regards Bertina as an important servant treasure for her master, but she will not take care of Bell, each minding their own business dormant. But Charlotte guarded Bell all night, and on the second day Bell woke up, she unexpectedly dreamed of the flower fairy again, and four flower fairy accompany her to play in the forest.

On the 3rd day, Pastor Dane and Charlotte, Laila, and Marcy shared the night vigil. Bertina still dreamed of flower fairies, and their number reached 16.

On the fourth day, Bell continued to play with the flower fairies in his dream, they are now a group.

This time, everyone is aware of the seriousness of the problem. Charlotte thought of many ways to end Bell’s strange dreams. For example, according to her description of the dream environment, when she fell asleep, At the same time cut down the woods. However, all measures taken by Charlotte were ineffective.

Bell dreams as long as he falls asleep. Dreaming is to play wildly with a group of flower fairies. During the day, everything was normal for her, she was still the heartless little cutie, and Pastor Dane couldn't find out anything wrong with her at all.

In this unresolved situation, Charlotte will lead the team to transfer immediately. However, Laila objected to her doing this, and Imerson wizard's experimentation has reached a critical stage. As a father now, he has no distractions, all his energy is devoted to creating his own spell model, completely unaware of the strange things that Bell encountered. The flame-like void rune flashes around the wizard at all times, forming a group of mysterious lines. Now no one dared to disturb him, for fear of unpredictable consequences.

Fortunately, Victor is getting closer and closer to the camp, and Laila said that in eight days, the master and three dragon maids will be able to arrive here. Charlotte felt a lot more stable, and as long as Victor arrived, any difficulties could be easily solved. She admires her lover and has infinite confidence in His Royal Highness Randal.

It’s strange to say that since Bell dreamed of the flower fairy, the luck of the expeditionary army has become particularly good. Technical trials are also progressing smoothly. He successfully solved the flaws in the spell model and increased the efficiency of making alienated beasts more than ten times. The 230 jungle cats and apes captured by the alchemy militia were all transformed into omnivorous alienated beasts. Imerson took a hard blow and fed all the remaining three razor beasts to his new pet.

The Alienated Cat and Ape have absorbed the bloodline rule accumulated by the razor beast, and then ate the fresh prey brought back by the hunting squad. The life form changed rapidly. The average weight increased from 60 pounds to 180 pounds, and the size was normal. The jungle leopard is about the same size, although it is not comparable to the razor beast, which is comparable to the brindle tiger, but the difference in battle strength is limited.

In addition to the powerful body that has been transformed, the advantage of Alienated Cats is that they have good intelligence and are born to know how to fight together. This is a skill that the Razormon does not possess.

Imerson’s previously created alienated creatures lack intelligence and rely on the instinct to draw flesh and blood to attack the target. Controlling their behavior consumes a lot of wizard’s energy, while the alienated cat and ape’s behavior pattern is closer to that of the lord. Alienated war beast, Imerson can temporarily hand over the command authority of a small part of alienated cats and apes to other people, thereby reducing their own energy burden, and can cultivate and control more alienated cats and apes.

Although the two hundred alienated cats and apes are no match for Philip II, for Imerson, making the alienated cats is a qualitative leap, which means that he has begun to control his own The power of witchcraft, not at the mercy of the power of witchcraft.

In the "close contact" with the Black Blood Sovereign, Imerson saw a treasure. It will take time to accumulate his power to transform this treasure into his own. The Alienated Cat and Ape is undoubtedly a good start.

In any case, 230 omnivorous alien cats have enhanced the strength of Randal's expeditionary force, making survival and search tasks easier.

Imerson didn’t close his eyes for a few days and nights. He is now unkempt, exhausted, and has a strong fighting spirit. He handed over the command of the new servant to a few squad Captains, and was prepared to return to the wood house with the help of the sword maid. rest. Charlotte briefly and quickly told the wizard the strange thing that Bertina had dreamed of.

Imerson yawned and said weakly: "Bell would have some strange dreams in Great Swamp when she was a child. She couldn't talk before, so she just used writing and drawing to show me... She's okay, wait I wake up..."

Before speaking, the wizard fell asleep leaning on the shoulder of the maid holding the sword. Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and had to let the sword maid carry the tired wizard into the wood house.

It was two days after Imerson woke up, his whole state was still immersed in the joy of success, but he also knew how to care for his baby girl. After talking with Bertina, the wizard vaguely stated to everyone that his daughter has some special abilities. Although he has been reluctant to admit that Bell is also a wizard, he still said that she might possess extraordinary abilities related to luck.

"So, Bell’s dream is a rare way of embodying the law, representing luck?" Pastor Dane tried to explain, and laughed to Charlotte and said, "I was still wondering. , Your Royal Highness expedition to the endless forest, why should we bring Bertina? Now I finally understand that Bell turned out to be our lucky angel, but when Your Royal Highness is in the team, she does not need to use her abilities. Your Royal Highness is not here at the moment, Bell’s extraordinary abilities were stimulated."

No one knows the wizard’s extraordinary power, and no one can solve Bell’s dream problem, and the expeditionary army’s luck in the past few days is indeed very good. Most importantly, His Royal Highness Randal is coming soon. Everyone temporarily accepts Dane’s explanation and believes that Bertina brings good luck to everyone.

However, it is a folk proverb—how lucky you are, you will be unlucky.

In the early morning of the seventh day, Imerson wizard ran out of the wood house disheveled, with a stern yelled voice: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Everyone get up quickly, get up quickly, Ant-Man monster in the vicinity !"

Charlotte shot out of the wood house like an arrow, grabbed Imerson's shoulder, and asked: "Don't panic, tell me exactly what happened?"

Imerson After taking a breath, he said with a panic expression: "Just now, I sensed that an alien cat-ape was killed. I used wisdom to guide one of its companions to see what was going on. The result was... Ant-man, there are at least thousands of ant-man, among them there is an ant-man with a white carapace gnawing on my alienated cat and ape.... I saw it, and it also found me. These ant-man monsters are coming for us! "

Charlotte asked eagerly: "Where is it and how far is it from us?"

"The very edge of the camp’s security circle, the forest in the south-east direction, is far from us The campsite is more than 80 kilometers."

Charlotte complexion greatly changed, his eyes swept over the surrounding companions, and finally fell on Caligula’s big face, yelling and asking: "Aka, you Didn’t you feel the danger?"

The stupid big fellow was frightened by Mrs. Charlotte, who was like a tigress. She shook her head and whispered: "Aka didn’t feel the danger. After Bell had a strange dream, Akkar didn't feel any danger."

"Madam, I didn't notice any danger either... In the past few days, I felt like I was staying at home in this forest swamp." Ma Qian didn't wait for Charlotte to ask, she took the initiative to speak to her.

At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Laila, the red-haired and red-eyed dragon maid turned her head, raised her chin and snorted coldly.

There is no doubt that she did not perceive the danger approaching in advance.

And the danger, when you see it, it’s too late....

Charlotte looks around the misty forest, frowning her long slender eyebrows, muttered "There is a problem with this forest. It shields the dangerous instincts of the ferocious warrior and the ferocious war dog..."

Ghost Swordsman Todd took a step forward, said solemnly: "Madam, let's retreat now. In time, use the speed and physical advantages to separate the powerhouse and the weak in the ant colony. This should ensure the overall safety of the team, and even kill the powerful opponents who have escaped the ant colony. But we must leave this area first!"

Reverend Nodded, Dane, expressed his approval of Todd’s advice. He asked: "Which direction is more appropriate for us to break through?"

Red Dragon Maid Laila said, "Master In the south-east direction, I am crossing the mountain range of Azores, and it will take 3 days to reach here."

"Cannot go to the direction where the owner is." Charlotte shook the head, towards Laila Explained: "Ant-Man can know our location. This is a situation where the enemy is dark and we are aware. We must prepare for the worst. We must consider that they set up an ambush circle in the south-east direction in advance. Now Ant-Man monster is coming from the south. , We retreat to the south-east direction, and the distance with them is close. Therefore, we should retreat to the opposite north, leave this damned forest swamp first, and then try to get rid of the ant-man army in circles... Your Majesty, he We will definitely be found."

Lila holding her giant axe blade, shrugged, said indifferently: "You are the commander appointed by my king, I will listen to your dispatch."

Charlotte nodded, took a deep breath, decisively ordered: "We will leave now and notify all guard sentries and alienated war beasts outside to catch up with the team on their own!"
