Evetrona's old stories

The girls set up a tent with sheets, and Lopel got out from under the covers. She said seriously to the three people standing on the stairs: "You can't go any further, this place has been cleaned up, and the clothes are clean. Shoes are not allowed in."

"It's up to you." Erinde shrugged.

After tomorrow night, the fifth generation will take their first trip in their lives, and these children don't seem to be worried about it.

Torriciana rang the bell for dinner, and the girls laughed and rushed from the corridor on the second floor to the dining room on the first floor. Carney even hugged her beloved duck down pillow, but was caught by the iron-faced Irene De forcibly confiscated.

This meal was probably the fastest meal the fifth generation had ever eaten. After a hasty dinner, they rushed upstairs to continue building their walls and castles.

Eve and Erinde also contributed their blankets and quilts, and built their own nest in the corridor. They became neighbors with sisters Harsha and Alani.

During the period, Hadera pried open the window of the corridor and jumped into the "castle". Eve noticed that there was still a thin piece of golden thread wrapped around the spikes on the top of the little dragon's head.

Hadra ran up to Eve, and he said, "I must solemnly apologize to you."

"Apologize?" Eve raised her eyebrows.

"About the bad behavior on the mountain that day." Sindra said, "It was only later that I realized how... disgraceful this incident was to you humans, and I blamed myself for it. In addition, it is also a great mistake to use a new ability without thinking when you just learn it."

"Did you hear someone say something?" Eve said, "Actually, I'm not too angry."

"Really?" Hadra's spikes stretched out, "You...you really are a man, full of courage."—Perhaps, this is the best compliment that Hadra can think of.

Eve didn't know whether she should be happy now.

"You still have a piece of gold thread wrapped around your head, what is that?" she asked Hadra.

"Sigourney personally entangled me, which is a kind of proof of access." When Medina said the word "personally", she emphasized her tone, "She asked me to go to the elf land with you."

"That's great." Eve could see that Hadra was very happy at this moment, "You can fly so high, and then you can help us see the situation in the distance."

"Of course, it's a trivial matter."

The girls got together, chatting and playing chess, and they didn't feel sleepy until it was close to midnight. They were lying next to each other on warm blankets and covered with quilts, with a tent made of sheets hanging above their heads. Torriciana said good night to the girls, and turned off the long lamp in the corridor.

It was at this moment that Erinde suddenly moved closer to Eve and lightly pecked her on the face.The girl didn't say anything, and immediately turned over and went to sleep, but Eve had trouble falling asleep that night.

Why did Yuqie speak in such a tone when he said the last sentence to himself, and what happened to Erinde's actions just now?These questions are always lingering in her mind, and she vaguely thinks of the answer, but finds it funny.

Are you a person worthy of liking? ——Drowsiness gradually struck, she gently put down this question, and decided not to think about it anymore.

Time flies, and the next morning, everyone is ready to go.

At this time, the fifth generation all wore pure white skirts—the style was somewhat similar to the moth-wing skirts, but more three-dimensional and gorgeous. In other words, the moth-wing skirts of Qingshui Castle were originally simplified from the costumes of the elves.Eve was a bit dissatisfied with the outfit, because the hem of the skirt barely covered the top half of her thighs and was as short as a smock—she had never worn a skirt this short.Now that the season is getting colder, obviously this dress cannot keep out the cold, so there are over-the-knee boots, fingerless gloves, and stockings worn inside the boots as an anti-abrasion lining as supplements.It's true that the elves don't want to wear pants or even underwear, and because of this, in the daily hunting of the elves, they always put a piece of soft fur on the back of their mounts... If it bumps, it feels a little unimaginable.

The witches didn't really follow the Romans, so they naturally couldn't accept the unrestrained dressing habits of the elves.

Compared with Eve, Yuqie is not much better, and he also wears such a skirt on his upper body—to put it nicely, it is a cloak with sleeves.However, he did not wear boots—under the white cloak, he was still wearing the same gray liner, knight trousers, and a pair of brown riding boots—this knight in his 30s looked like a handsome young man at this moment.

Everyone's collar is embroidered with a shiny gold leaf. Judging from the material of the silk thread, it seems to be the same kind as the one tied on the spikes of Hadera.

When these people crossed the lake by boat, the white deer of Qinia had already gathered by the lake near the college, and the scene was really quite spectacular.

"This is not fifty, there are sixty or seventy." Yuqie said.

"Counting to 'fifty' is probably too difficult for these deer," Leliere said.

As the guide and escort to the elf land, the two third-generation witches appointed by Sigourney, one of them is Streki, and the other is the tall Lelie.

When the boat reached the other side, Delize communicated with Laffer the deer again, and then everyone saw more than a dozen white deer leaving here along the shore of the lake with their short tails shaking.

"That's really a lot of people." Yuqie sighed, "We are walking on the road, and others will definitely think that we are herding sheep from a distance."

"It's much prettier than sheep." Erinde disagreed with him.

"You are riding on this group of sheep... no, on this group of deer, and you are also dressed in white. I always think this is not a good idea." Yuqie said.

He was thinking that if he met a hunter with bad eyesight, he might mistake them for a white deer and accidentally hurt them—and considering that Eve was also among them, Yuqie didn't make it clear.

"Can I ride with you?" Eve asked Lelier.

"You are the ones to be guarded." Lelier said, "If it wasn't for the consideration of the weight, we would also like to ride the deer."

The girls are light, and the elf deer have long and powerful limbs-with their help, even crossing the mountains is not difficult.

The witches who came to see them off from the academy put wreaths on the heads of the travelers. The wreaths were woven from various wood sorrel flowers in the garden, and they were very beautiful on the girls' heads.Yuqie wore a wide-brimmed felt hat, so the witch put a wreath on his hat.

There was still mist floating by the lake in the early morning, and Eve imitated what others did, and tied a simple cushion and fixed belt on the back of a deer.

After tidying up, everyone got on their mounts, surrounded by herds of deer, sitting or standing, making brisk deer cries from time to time.

The thirteen travelers waved goodbye to the crowd, white deer, white horse, and white-clothed men—they were like a cloud, accompanied by the cool morning glow, heading for the exit on the west side of the island.

This is the right time to go out, the tide has not yet fully risen.The two escorting witches rode at the front, and the herd of deer and the fifth generation followed behind in a long line—they all followed the direction of the leader Delize and the head deer Laffer—while Yuqie followed everyone at the end, observing the situation in the team.Wading through the shallow sea water, walking southward along the beach, and after they got out of Clear Water Castle, Lelier and Stricky released six or seven golden-green spheres the size of walnuts from their respective pockets. The surface of those spheres was carved with hollow patterns and glowed with a faint blue glow, floating in the air and circling the two witches.

Eve has seen something similar before - when he fought against Mulanne in Xilinsburg, the other party held such an object in his hand - the Oran Rubik's Cube.The Oran Rubik's Cube has various styles, and it can be regarded as the top equipment of witches-it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a luxury.This kind of magic energy device can provide users with powerful magic perception and casting power, and even allow a witch to have the ability to change local weather. Therefore, when Eve can face-to-face with a witch holding the Oran Rubik's Cube with her own ability, Elekin has to take this matter seriously-a girl who knows little about magic, if she can't use magic correctly, it may lead to catastrophe.

The array of miniature Oran Rubik's Cubes is the unique method used by the Witches of Qingshui Castle to use magic energy devices - more than a dozen spheres move regularly on a fixed plane and release magic energy fluctuations to the outside, so as to roughly detect the location of nearby moving objects or living things - just like a simple phased array radar.

Qingshui Castle is not big, but in terms of magic science research, it may not be inferior to Hartan. If these technologies are used in warfare, it is hard to imagine how earth-shaking changes will take place in the world today.

"Big urchin..." Loper pointed to a dark mass on the beach in front of him.

After they got closer, they realized that the dark thing was actually Hadra.

"Why did you come here?" Eve asked him.

"It's just right to wait for you here." Mindra followed them.

"You don't like to join in the fun?"

"When you part, you always have to make some intimacy. If I stay there, is it possible that I have to wait for them to send me a wreath as well?"

"Medra—"

"what happened?"

"Actually, I admire you a lot. You have spikes all over your body, but you haven't hurt anyone at all." Thinking of the other party's apology the night before, Eve suddenly felt emotional.

Eve doesn't know how difficult it is for Hades to "do no harm", but she at least understands that Hades is not in a relaxed state when she retracts the thorns all over her body—the head Maybe Xiaolong is the most thoughtful person she has ever met.

"Thank you...thank you." Medra stammered.

The tide was high, the sea surrounded the tidal flats, seabirds hovered above their heads, and the white deer ran mightily towards the mouth of the river, heading towards the mountains inside—they passed through the jungle and rocks, sometimes converging and sometimes dispersing.

Eve has experienced several large and small trips, but only this time, she has a sense of excitement: they are migrating with the herd of deer, and they are moving away from the human fortress in a way that is not used by humans to another unknown world.

There are always long mountains between the sea and the land. These not-so-steep mountains isolate the cold wind and sea water, and enclose a warm and pleasant area inland.Over the mountains to the east of the archipelago, the mild warm wind makes it feel like it's summer again.

On the day of departure, they walked a lot, and it was near evening that Lelier found a place suitable for camping. What she called "suitable for camping" seemed to be different from the general camp selection criteria.

The place to camp was on an open grass field, the terrain here was slightly higher, but there was a big mountain in the west, which cut off the strong wind and cold at night.

Compared with Eve and Yuqie's "poor look" during their travels, Lelier and Streiki brought all their equipment this time - both of them had storage containers, and all camping supplies and cooking ingredients were stored in two small black crystals.

The preciousness of storage items is unimaginable, not only because of its rarity, but also because of the perishable nature of the starry sky stone - every time mana energy is poured into it, the crystal leading to another dimension will evaporate a certain volume, and when the starry sky stone can no longer store any items, it becomes a decorative gemstone.

With the storage device, travel has become different—a kind of prop or tool, the standard of carrying it is no longer "carrying", but "moving", so when Streki takes it out of thin air Eve and Yuqie felt a little unbelievable when they took a big cast iron cauldron.

Maoqi is undoubtedly a rich man, and Comino is even richer. When going camping with these two, Eve has never seen them use storage devices—whether it is because they prefer to enjoy the fun brought by simple tools, or because they are still not qualified to use such expensive equipment, Eve does not know.Maybe Mochi would have something like this, she guessed, but he certainly didn't want to spend this luxury on things that had nothing to do with work.

"This pot is too big." Eve said to Yuqie who was sitting beside her.

"Yeah, you can braise a whole deer." Yuqie said in a low voice.

"Hey, that bad idea you gave Delize, it wouldn't be..."

"Where do you want to go, I'm just joking. These deer are very smart. If anyone wants to eat them, I'm afraid they will run away before the next day." Yuqie said, "Not only that ——We should also pay attention when hunting, try not to hunt their same group, but if we talk about other animals...they probably won't mind us eating meat, right?"

［197］Rebirth under withering: the innocence of the dying part [-]

The huge dome tent was fixed on the ground by everyone. Under the setting sun, more than a dozen Oran Rubik's Cubes floated on the top of the tent, emitting a faint light.

As tonight's chef, Stricky cooked a relatively sumptuous dinner on the first night of this trip - stewed pork with seaweed and beans, smoked sausage, white wine, and hummus as the main course.

Eve has seen the pigs raised by the islanders of Qingshuibao before. Those semi-free-range black pigs even have tusks. They usually go out to look for food by themselves and don't need much feed.There is hardly much fat on the black pig, so the meat is very firm, and it does not taste as good as real domestic pigs.In order to be able to stew the pot of meat, the first thing Stricky did after arriving at the camp site was to take out the thick cast iron pot and start cooking on fire long before the tent was set up.

For the fifth generation, the experience of the evening was novel enough that there was an appropriate silence during the meal, and even the youngest children sat quietly and did not run around.

At night, the light of the golden moon permeates the wilderness, making the night no longer seem scary.After drinking and eating, Streiki put out the bonfire, and before the warmth in their stomachs dissipated, everyone returned to the tent, ready to fall asleep.Delize had a few conversations with the head deer, Laffer, and then, several underage deer came out from behind Laffer and got into the tent of the witches.

The tent that Lelier set up was spacious enough to accommodate everyone. Yuqie could have slept in it, but he declined Lelier's invitation.

Traveling is a way of life for the people of the West Coast Islands. They regard fellow travelers as their closest family members, brothers and sisters who need mutual help.For Lelier and Stricky, all the rules during the trip can be kept simple, but Yuqie doesn’t think so—he always sticks to his own set of style and rules, and never changes them, because——If you have to think carefully and hesitate about everything you encounter, you won’t be able to maintain decisiveness in your behavior.

During the trip before coming here with Eve, the two were forced to spend the night in the wilderness quite a few times. Yuqie usually just sat outside the tent, held a sword, and sometimes even propped up a barrier, and only slept for three or four hours lightly, in order to ensure safety.Today, the southern border of Krigin is still unexplored, and not only bandits are haunted here, but also the footprints of beasts and savages are also noteworthy.

This night, Yuqie spent the night sitting outside the tent again. He didn't really believe in the means of the witches—tools can indeed make vigilance easier, but they still can't be foolproof. If a person loses vigilance due to excessive reliance on tools, in his opinion, that is the most terrifying thing.

The white deer leaned against him, as if they also regarded him as a companion.The animals huddled around him and spent the cold night like this.

Carrying Tyrian's bones on their backs, it took them nearly a week to cross the border from the west coast to the territory of the Tonteni people, and then crossed the southern border of Tonteni.In the small town of Totney, this group of people paraded through the city with a herd of deer, and caused quite a commotion. The local rich man wanted to buy "a deer with beautiful fur" and the "flying hedgehog" from them, but Lelier flatly refused.They restocked their supplies in several towns, and finally left Tontheney the day before the festival began.

Going south around the mountains, the climate becomes humid and warm again. There is a large swampy wetland here, where tall and straight trees grow, covering the sky.

Two centuries ago, the countries on the west coast had intended to open up this area, which consumed a lot of financial and material resources, but in the end it was stopped due to the intervention of the forest elves.At that time, the forest elves rode the dexterous Dingonek and scattered poisonous flower seeds and spores on the outskirts of the forest, causing purple moss and blue poisonous dust to continuously grow here, and attracted a large number of poisonous insects, amphibians and hunting beasts that feed on them to live here, so that those greedy aliens could not get close.Humans wanted to burn this woodland, but poisonous spores flew into the clouds through the fire, polluting a large amount of land. The poisonous smoke and rain made the slaves who opened up the wasteland and the officers and soldiers stationed suffer from serious diseases. The dead bodies spread plague and miasma, making this area faintly dead.

The Holy See, which ruled the countries, has seized a lot of wealth in several conquests against the heretics, and they intend to re-invest these wealth in war and expansion, so as to achieve the continued growth of the religious territory.The swamp wetland in the south was their first choice. If they can get through this road, they will be able to reach the fan continent platform at the other end of the swamp, which is the small neutral country in the middle of Yudi—the city-state of Hatan.The Yujiao Alliance is coveted by the science and technology and geographical location here. If they can continue southward from here, they will be able to reach the southern world under the leadership of Jikesen and Elphran-a rich and peaceful golden land.

The obstruction of the forest elves caused them to return home. After that, the kings of the various countries competed to develop ocean trade, and prepared to detour to the southern end of Yudi to get the ideas of the undeveloped indigenous people. In the process, the Morchesk Plain attracted their attention again, because it was discovered that there were a large number of ruins of ancient civilizations—that is, Shater’s Covenant—from which they could dig out "advanced" technologies related to warfare and navigation.The various countries drove several safari tribes out of their homeland, and then fought each other over the ownership of the relics. The final result of all this led to the division between Chengyu in the north and Zhengyu in the south, the second war among the countries, Yituen's defection and apostasy, the defeat of the allies, the division of the Mayedisa Empire, and the rise and expansion of Klijin.

Everyone walks in a vast and stretching meadow, and the forest that can be called a dead place is also faintly visible on the horizon-now it has restored its original vitality.

Today's weather is gloomy, with dew on the leaves of grass and shrubs, and even in the afternoon, the ground is still covered with a thin layer of mist.Walking on the potholes and muddy grass, the team moved very slowly, and the girls were no longer as excited as they were when they first went out. Even Lopel, who was the most energetic, fell asleep on the back of the deer at this time.

"I wonder... can we take a short detour." At this moment, Hadera flew up to Lelier, "There is a place that I want to show you."

"Where is it?" Lelier looked at him suspiciously, "Have you been here before? What's so interesting here?"

"I have a friend who sleeps near here," said Sindra. "His name is—um...Sen Tuffin Radferonan."

"Centuffen... what, can you say it again?"

"Sen Tufen Radferonan." At this time, Yuqie rushed up from behind the team, and he asked Lelier, "Haven't you heard of this name?"

"Of course I've heard of it, but I don't believe that Barry will know Sentufen."

"Believe it or not, you're about to see it," said Sindra.

"But we have to go to the elf land as soon as possible." Lelier said, "and you suddenly said a legendary name... The last time I heard this name was when I was a child, in the bedtime stories my mother told me...Before I was ten years old, I still believed in the existence of such a dragon, but now..."

"I don't believe it now, because I'm afraid others will laugh at me?" Yuqie teased.

"Because that story is too beautiful." Lelier replied.After seeing the dangers and injustices of this world, most people began to refuse to accept those imaginary beautiful fairy tales.

"So you want to go?" Sindra asked them.

In fact, along the way, Hadra was hesitating whether to take them to Centuffin—the giant dragon that existed before the first era is now dying, and at the same time, as a friend of the dragon and the witches, Hadra sincerely hopes that they can meet each other. At this moment, they happen to be so close, which can be regarded as meeting by chance.

Hadera didn't understand what was his motivation for doing this, he just vaguely felt that the fall of a great creature was worth seeing and witnessing by the weak, and they would definitely benefit from it for a lifetime.

Lelier reined in the reins, so the team also stopped.

"Approximately how far is it from here?" she asked Hadra.

"If you walk faster, it will take less than a day. It's in the southwest direction, along the mountain..." How to bring these two-legged people to Sentufen's side, such a scene has been envisioned many times by Hadra.

"That's not too close—we still have business to do. The Centurion you mentioned...why wait until we return?" Lelier interrupted Medra, "I'm sorry, Barry."

"It doesn't matter, he's always been here." Medina was a little disappointed, but he didn't show it—in fact, no one present except Eve could understand the emotions of a dragon.But at this time, Eve was having a heated chat with Erinde beside her, and didn't hear the conversations of the people in front of her.

"My lord—" At this moment, Yuqie suddenly shouted behind him, "Let's take a look at 'Centuffen' on the way, what do you think of this idea? It won't take long."

Yuqie shouted loudly, and Eve didn't realize that he was talking to herself until she saw the other party's gaze staring at her.

"I have no objection, just go and have a look." Eve didn't quite hear what Yuqie was saying, and her answer was mostly coping—in fact, she was indeed not a person who was willing to make up her mind.

"It seems that there are still people who want to go." Yuqie said to Lelier, "Why don't we leave now, our dragon friend actually said that Sentufen is nearby, this is really too sensational - don't you really not curious at all?"

"But judging from your tone, it seems that you don't take this matter seriously?"

"That's not the case, it's just because——I prefer to pay attention to things related to me. It's getting late, my friend of the Dragon Clan, now that we've decided, let's go quickly."

"Dragon friend...I like this title very much." Medina flew forward, leading the way for everyone.

During this week, no matter how big or small, Yuqiu had to explain everything to Eve, or ask for her opinion. Over time, Lelier and Streki got used to him making a big fuss, so even if he Forcibly changing the itinerary in Eve's name this time, his behavior did not arouse the vigilance of the two.

Whether he wants to see the Centurion who doesn't know the truth or not is not a question that Yuqie cares about - Ruo Lier was persuaded by Hadra in the first place, and Yuqie must in turn urge them to go to the elf land as soon as possible - he just took this opportunity to create some dispensable small differences in the team in order to achieve his own purpose.

Sen Tuffin Radferonan—it seems that there is a similar giant dragon in the legends of every human race. It may be called differently, but the descriptions of him are generally similar: a heavy body like a mountain, endless ability to move the wind and rain, thoughts and wisdom as deep as the sea, and the most important point—he is close to human beings.

The fifth generation heard that they were going to meet the legendary Centurion, but they had no doubts about him. They were all very excited after the surprise, especially Kani—at Kani's current age, maybe in a few years, she would lose her talent as a witch.Kani has always understood that her body is different from a real witch, so she has always had a very urgent but difficult to realize wish in her heart.

Erinde really sympathizes with Carney, she doesn't think that Centurion can easily realize other people's dreams like in the fairy tale - I'm afraid Carney will be disappointed.

They followed the forest to the west of the col.The sun was sinking to the west, and a large number of bats passed by in the sky. These night hunters rushed out of hidden cracks and caves, and went out to look for food while black and white alternated.
