The legendary path of the abandoned half-elf

"Oh, I don't know how Connie is, but she must have turned gray and fat."

The half-elf girl lay on Elsa's belly, holding the wolf girl's tail and rubbing it gently. After relaxing, she stood up and continued to practice the spiritual materialization. She found that the natural storm plus this thing was very useful. Lorenno just needed to make it. Throwing sharp objects in, it can play a very good role without any subsequent operations.

Holding a palm-sized amount of life energy, Lorenno compressed it into something as hard as possible, only to eventually break it back into dissipated life force.

She was not discouraged and continued to repeat this process. The control of psychic energy needed to be improved bit by bit. There would be no shortcuts——

Oh, there is really a shortcut to the improvement of psychic power. As a kind of spiritual power, when the user's emotions are extremely excited, the psychic power will be enhanced. However, the half-elf girl's emotions are relatively stable, and she hopes that she will not Encountered this situation during combat.

After practicing for a while, there was a knock on the door: "Is Miss Blood Beast Lorenno here? We are from the Monica Chamber of Commerce, and the president asked us to ask for your help."

Monica Chamber of Commerce?

Lorenno remembered the calculating businesswoman who went back to the bed and patted Elsa's face: "Someone is coming, cover her up with the quilt."

Opening the door, the half-elf girl looked at two young men and women in exquisite clothes, came out of the door and closed it, and asked: "I am Lorenno, what can Monica do for me?"

"Miss, I hope you can work with us to protect some things heading to the capital, because this cargo is very important and someone may rob it halfway."

"No problem, I agreed. What are you trying to get?"

The two men looked around warily. The lady bent down and whispered in her ear: "Fine iron, there are two boxes of mithril, one box of fine gold, and one box of magic materials."

Lorenno raised his eyebrows. No wonder he was asked to help. There were three boxes of metal without more than four or five mid-level people who might not be able to defend them. The girl asked: "Did the news leak?"

"No, but the president wants you mainly to prevent insiders."

After Lorenno left, Monica collected half of the family's money and used it for herself. As the power in the family became more and more serious, she needed to pretend that her chamber of commerce was in difficulty and develop quietly.

Lorenno thought about it and said, "Okay, I'll take this commission. When are you going to leave?"

"The day after tomorrow afternoon."

After getting the specific time, the half-elf calculated that it should be enough for her to buy supplies. After saying goodbye to the two of them and returning to the room, Elsa stuck her head out and said confusedly: "Are you leaving again?"

"It's not that fast. We'll leave the day after tomorrow. There should be a lot of fights to be fought."

Chapter 277 Love Words

In the early morning two days later, the dew on the plants had not yet evaporated. Ordinary people got up early to work. Businessmen or adventurers who were preparing to leave Black Pigeon City had also left the city one after another, and there were also adventurers who had not accepted the mission.

In some stores, you can sleep soundly with a living pillow.

Sa-!

The bloody square-tapered blade cut off a branch and flew back to Lorenno's hand. Currently, the five of them were waiting outside the city for the people from the Monica Chamber of Commerce to appear.

The progress of the practical training of psychic powers was faster than the girl imagined. She once thought that she was too lazy when practicing agility before. She should be standing on the sword and meditating, and she should also perform three practical trainings at the same time. .

She played with her life force, splitting a blade into four parts and rotating around her finger. She changed her movements from time to time, and noticed that Sa Luo here was almost dazzled.

After waiting for a long time, Monica Guild finally left the city. On the flag was a pair of hands holding ten fingers, with a flower printed on the back.

"Miss Blood Beast, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. It took a while to pack the box."

The former male deacon came over to apologize. Lorenno turned his head inside and almost kissed Elsa, patting her awake and asking her to go back to sleep in the carriage. The half-elf girl asked Vita to go and look at the boxes together. Important metal, after confirming it is correct, set off with the caravan.

"Who are these metals shipped to?"

Level with the deacon's carriage, Lorenno thought of asking about it.

"A weapons workshop with a not-so-sounding name. It seems to be...Iron Harrier Workshop. It has been in the capital for more than ten years."

There is so much metal and I don’t know what to do with it. Is it because the workshop doesn’t have much reserves?

Lorenno thought curiously, and soon forgot about it. Currently, he was more concerned about whether Connie had received her letter, and he didn't know whether Connie would come to greet her then.

Thinking of the letter she wrote, the half-elf girl who was driving patted her cheek. She felt embarrassed thinking about it now, and she didn't know what kind of mentality she had when she sent it.

【To my treasure:】

[My Princess, how have you been in the capital recently?Did you sleep well and eat well?I hope that when I see you again, you won’t become like a woman from the North, or like a zombie. Otherwise, I may have to help you gain or lose weight appropriately. 】

[In about half a month, I will be able to go to Dovlai. Is the situation there still stable? But judging from the situation in other cities, the capital is the place where the collision is most intense. Be more cautious and don’t Do things you don’t want to do for the sake of revenge and the so-called dignity of the royal family. 】

[You know, I never care about your identity. Even if you fail, I will live and die with you. 】

[Since the last visit, the most impressive thing for me is Sprout City. When I arrived, a celebration was being held, and some interesting things happened...]

【…】

[That’s roughly it. Just by saying you can’t feel it, I’ll show you my memory when we get together~]

[By the way, my blacksmith, Miss Connie, I still need your help with one more important thing. I hope you can reforge a weapon, as long as it is hard enough and sharp enough, and you can do the rest freely. 】

……

Connie Aquila, wearing a black gauze nightgown, was lying on the bed reading this letter for the fifth time today.

Every time she saw the love words that Lorenno had excerpted from some bard's lyrics or some novels, the princess would be overjoyed to think of the half-elf girl's tangled face when she wrote this letter, so she read it over and over again. this letter.

However, what her dear knight worried about in the letter is indeed happening. While Connie lamented Lorenno's political intuition, she was also a little worried. The old and new nobles were like gunpowder and flame. The two sides were about to collide, and other cities in the distance ’s struggle is nothing more than a microcosm of Dovlei’s.

After putting the envelope away, Connie stood up and took out several newspapers published by different newspapers for comparison. After eliminating some false things, it could be seen that Dovley's situation was deteriorating.

"The murderer is hunting civilians. What is the city guard doing?" "The love and hatred between Viscount Dot and Earl Weber? The devil's murder of all the Dot family is completely untrue." "Shocking, the terrifying inside story of the orphanage! There is an old story The nobles of the era are conducting human experiments." "The legendary assassin is actually her?! The most beautiful dancer, Taptin, made a shocking statement!"...

As an outsider, Connie witnessed Dovlai's undercurrents surging to the surface of things hidden under the iceberg. Many strange events seemed unrelated, but actually represented the interest disputes between the old and new aristocrats and the empire. The confrontation with the Federation even has the shadow of the upper-level interface and the lower-level interface behind these.

Everyone wants to profit from it, and Connie is gradually pulled into the whirlpool from an outsider, and she can't help herself.

But what puzzled her the most was that while everyone was gone, there were two people who seemed completely silent and allowed things to get chaotic. One was Her Royal Highness, who was attending the tea party and handling government affairs as usual, and the other was sitting upright. His Majesty the Emperor, who remained motionless on the throne and never stepped out of the palace.

The two of them seemed to have no intention of stopping the chaos. They just watched Dovlai become chaotic. How should I put it, it was like they didn't care about the actions of the group of guys below. No matter how they were beaten below, they would not be affected.

However, Connie, who was able to come and go freely, still found some clues. She chatted and joked with her... ahem, Miss Neko who had been chatting with friends had disappeared half a month ago.

But she was still worried about whether Lorenno would be involved.

, because Connie was not sure whether His Majesty knew the news, and she did not know what His Majesty was going to do with this daughter. The princess had made up her mind that if His Majesty disdained this daughter, Connie would ask His Majesty to hand Lorenno over to her.

"Huh... No matter what, I will try my best." Putting down the newspaper, Connie murmured to herself, preparing to meet with His Majesty tomorrow to ask how she would handle the Dovley matter.

Lying back on the bed, Connie took out a large cute pillow from the crystal. It had gray hair and big eyes that changed colors from time to time. It had two hanging weapons on its waist and had a slight smile on its face.

Her Royal Highness held the pillow unseemly, rubbed her face against her head, and murmured softly: "Really, I have paid so much for you, and it cannot be solved with just a few love words. I must make you compensate me well." I……"

After a while, Connie Aquila fell into a light sleep. From her tense body, it could be seen that her subconscious was very alert.

Chapter 278 Telling Riddles

In the royal garden, which is filled with flowers of all seasons, regardless of the temperature, Connie followed the maid down the aisle without looking back.

Connie didn't expect His Majesty to agree to her request so easily. She was a little nervous now. She still remembered her fear when she first met His Majesty. When she walked to the garden and saw His Majesty in the pavilion, she felt a sense of difference.

The long red hair is spread on the smooth and spotless marble. The emperor is lying on a chair in the pavilion, reading a book with one hand in one hand. The expression on his face does not look so serious. There is a natural smile on the corner of his mouth under the veil, but it is Not too exaggerated to scare others.

"You're here, sit down and have a taste of the black tea." Looking sideways at Connie, the emperor made a seductive voice, asked the girl to sit opposite, and waved the maid away.

Connie sat down straight, picked up the cup in front of her and drank tea. Her eyes glanced at the cover of the book the emperor was holding, and her pupils suddenly trembled so hard that she almost squirted out a mouthful of water.

It was a book called "Jasmine's Kiss". There were two girls on the cover... It was kind of like that, that kind of picture book.

What the hell?

The serious Princess fell into confusion for a moment. The Queen seemed to be aware of Connie's mood. She closed the book and raised her eyebrows: "Don't get me wrong, someone changed the cover of the book in a weird way."

After saying that, the Queen took off the cover, and the book with an exquisite cover appeared in front of Connie. The messy girl regained consciousness and breathed a sigh of relief. She thought His Majesty was really reading that kind of book.

"Connie, there must be something wrong with you coming to see me. Are you not used to eating in Dovley?"

"Of course not, Your Majesty," Connie organized her words and said tactfully, "A lot of things happened outside, and I'm a little scared." (Have you heard about the news outside?)

"What things?" (For example?)

"There are many. The most important thing is that the sons of two nobles want to invite me to a banquet at their home. I am not easy to make plans. I hope your majesty can give me some advice." (Your Majesty, you should also tell me about the battle between the old and new nobles. Who do you support?)

"You are a princess, you are free to choose, but my suggestion is not to go. In fact, you think the banquet is very troublesome in your heart." (You are a princess, you can choose whatever you want, but I still hope you can sit on the fence. )

Seeing that the Queen was willing to give an explanation instead of being a riddler, Connie breathed a sigh of relief and asked: "Speaking of which, those two got into a fight over a noble lady. What do you think?" (You don't care about the fight between the old and the new. .)

"Children are just playing house. No matter how much they argue, whether they are ladies or gentlemen, they are the children of a noble family. Unless they get married in an upright manner, they cannot be taken away." (I don't care, they won't fight no matter how much they argue. I can make money, and I am the only one who makes money.)

Connie opened her mouth. She thought about all the conversations she would have with His Majesty later, but she didn't expect His Majesty to be so confident, or that he didn't take these people seriously at all. She couldn't help but ask: "The identity of a noble lady is just that." A little taller than the two gentlemen, right?" (Are you that confident? In terms of power, the old and new aristocrats each have their own side.)

When Connie asked this question, the Queen laughed out loud: "Connie, let me ask you something. Have you ever talked to Viscount Olinke?" (Have you ever talked to Olinke?)

"Yes, his knowledge from another world amazes me." There is no hidden meaning in Connie's words.

The Olin in the conversation between the two is a soul traveler from another universe. He comes from another world and a country where the people live better than most countries on the mainland. Because of the rich and advanced knowledge, currently Serving as an errand under the Queen.

Connie chatted with him for a while at a banquet and learned about the advanced systems of another world that were useful or useless to the world of Flon.

"Why do you think I didn't promote certain plans?" The Queen stopped using metaphors and asked with a yawn.

"Because those things are too advanced or simply not suitable for this world."

"Yeah, what do you think is the most important thing in this world?"

Before Connie could think about it, His Majesty said with a smile: "As I said before, it's strength. Strength is everything——"

"I am confident that even if the people under my command fail, I can crush all the young people."

Such an "arrogant" speech left Connie speechless. The Queen shook her head and said, "Besides, how do you know if I deliberately pretended not to care."

His Majesty stood up and shook the book in his hand: "Just like this book, you really thought that someone had changed the cover just now.

Yes, but actually think about it again. "

After being reminded by the Queen, Connie remembered the weirdness. It was impossible for the Queen to not see such an obvious cover. She had placed it there deliberately for Connie to see. And Connie's attention was diverted by the emperor's actions. On the contrary, Didn't pay attention to it.

Just when Connie was thinking about it, the Queen opened the book with a smile and pushed it in front of the princess: "It seems like this book again (emphasis added). If you didn't read the words clearly and just looked at the cover, you'd already feel... Is this something serious?"

After saying that, the queen clapped her hands and asked the maid to approach again, and walked towards the palace without looking back. Connie picked up the book she left behind, and the content on it made her blush - compared to the previous cover, this one was actually more beautiful It’s a tough one, describing the story of a female mage who is good at shadow tentacles and the assassin who assassinated her!

When the girl calmed down and sat in the courtyard, she also understood that the Queen had already prepared, but she just pretended not to care, so she didn't prepare anything. Connie felt relieved, and at the same time she was determined to make Lorent as easy as possible in this chaotic place. Promise not to go out to her house.

As long as you hold on, the problem will be solved.

At the same time, Lorenno's team encountered trouble again on the road, and the trouble was not as big as usual.

A group of masked robbers appeared halfway. They stretched out their hands like normal robbers and said: "Hand over the money and goods, and we will leave."

But the half-elf girl's magical sense of smell told him that something was wrong with these people. The sulfur bits and burnt smell on their bodies were clearly visible. The last time he smelled such a strong sulfur smell was on the body of a certain young thief who almost fell.

'It's the devil. '

Lorenno quietly put his hand into the carriage to remind everyone that although he didn't know why they wanted to snatch the things in the carriage, it was definitely a good thing to kill them.

When the leader came over, the half-elf girl and several people in the carriage suddenly burst into violence. When Lorenno's double swords collided with the curved black scimitar of the bandit leader, he shouted to the other guards: "These It’s the devil, be careful!!”

Chapter 279 Vortex Center

Hearing the word devil, the guards around the Chamber of Commerce were startled. The fear of the legendary devil made them shrink back. Seeing this, Lorenno shouted again: "Kill them all harder! Otherwise, we can escape." , your souls will also be taken to hell by the devil after you die!"

The threatening lies gave the retreating mercenaries great courage. No one wanted to fall into hell, but to go to heaven, so they collided with the carjacker again.

"Ok?"

Lorenno slashed the assassin who was charging to death with a sword and took off his mask. Looking at the disfigured face, she realized that her prediction was wrong. These people with a strong aura from the lower world were humans, not demons as she thought.

"They are not devils! I was wrong!"

The half-elf girl had no shame in admitting her mistake and spoke out about it. The hired adventurer breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he complained that Lorenno was scary and was also angry at the well-trained assassin. —

Since you are not devils, why do you dare to be so cruel? !Aren't you afraid of us when there are so few people?

The intensity of the attack on the Chamber of Commerce is getting stronger and stronger. Although the casualties are increasing, it is much closer to the defeat of the entire army. Lorenno's team can deal with the assassins much faster than the original escort. The adventurers of the Chamber of Commerce only need to block them.

The long sword pierced a person's body. Lorenno pulled out the sword and brought up all her blood. The life force spread into the air to form crystalline objects and began to assemble.

What is the origin of these guys?

The half-elf girl frowned and thought about this matter. The assassin who was full of the aura of the lower world was obviously not coming towards her, but since he came to rob the road, it meant that there was something they wanted in this caravan, but the only thing in this batch was the blacksmith shop. Want something.

The blacksmith shop had a grudge against the people behind these assassins.

Lorenno guessed that an assassin quietly came behind her and raised a dagger. The girl's eyes moved slightly without turning her body. The crystal particles flew towards the assassin's back at an extremely fast speed, condensing into a prismatic blade on the way. Pierce the assassin's chest!

Stepping away from the weak attack, the half-elf girl, Aisha and others quickly eliminated this wave of assassins. After cleaning the battlefield and about to leave, Lorenno looked up as if looking at the trees on the left, and then nothing happened. keep going.

The blond man who was responsible for the observation several hundred meters away couldn't help but take a few steps back, his face was uncertain, and he said to himself: "Why does it feel like she is looking at me?"
