Lorenno thought as he was chopping. He chopped off the head of the strongest warrior in the tribe with one sword. He then stabbed a stunned Gnoll between the eyebrows according to his idea, and continued to rush towards the only Shi among the Gnoll raiders.

Dharma.

"...Run!!" "Run!" "Run! Axi is dead!"

Just one second after killing the strongest warrior, the gnoll raiding team collapsed. Their habits are the same as those of hyenas. When encountering an invincible enemy, they will flee directly, especially after the death of the strongest person in the group. , this collapse is even more rapid.

The commander reacted before these guys. The leader suddenly lowered his body and quickly threw away all the things on his body that symbolized the commander's identity, leaving only the rough animal skin armor inside, which looked exactly like an ordinary jackal. .

But, while a warrior might get confused, a ranger definitely won't, even if they don't have psychic powers.

Lorenno put away his standard long sword, picked up the broken ax on the ground, and pulled it out of a jackal's head. The muscles in his right hand tensed up and he aimed at the slightly thin jackal.

Boom!

Throwing the ax out, it spun in the air through the gap between the gnolls, accurately splitting the caster in half.

Watching the jackals recede like a tide, everyone in the adventure group who was responsible for the escort breathed a sigh of relief. Korpa (ps: see the haunted village in front of the lakeside city for details) rubbed the old scars on his face, and he was tired of surviving the disaster. He showed a ferocious smile: "Damn jackal, I knew there would be gods to protect me."

"It is not the gods who protect you, Mr. Kolpa."

A familiar voice came, and Kolpa always felt that the soft voice sounded familiar. He raised his head and saw Lorenno, and then said with a look of surprise: "Yes... yes..."

Kolpa said "yes" for a long time, apparently forgetting Lorenno. The half-elf could tell from his expression that he didn't know who the second princess of the empire was. At least he hadn't seen the portrait, and he didn't remember the name.

So she smiled and said: "It's me, Flora, the one who saves your team and Shuihuo."

Chapter 503 The Country of Music

As night fell, Lorenno and Kolpa, the captain of the adventurer team responsible for escorting, sat by the campfire and roasted food.

After the incident in the morning, the merchants seemed very polite because they had just saved their family, children, and property. Lorenno accepted their thank-you gifts without hesitation and offered to let them accompany them.

With such a powerful professional by his side, how could they disagree?

So the half-elf girl successfully let her team sneak into the caravan. Currently, she is sitting with Kolpa mainly to talk about the current situation between the two parties.

Oh, the main thing is to bring them closer together. The situation between the two of them can be seen through their clothes. You can tell who is doing well and who is not doing well just by looking at them.

Kolpa is still the same, Lorenno, or "Flora" is full of sophisticated equipment, and the carriage, it is obvious at a glance that it is not something that ordinary people can come up with.

"You're not doing well. Where are the others?"

Lorenno glanced at his adventure group. All members of Kolpa's adventure group had changed. No old faces were seen. Something must have happened. He smiled bitterly, took a sip of strong wine and said:

"It's nothing. It's just that my instructions went wrong, and then the adventure group suffered heavy losses. The people in the group ousted me as the leader."

Get off the stage?

The half-sperm girl nodded clearly, saying that she was kicked out, but in fact she probably broke away from the adventure group he founded. After all, the flag was still the same, but in this case, she was kicked out or stopped working with him, what do you mean? It makes no difference, just a polished commander.

"What about you, this is..."

Lorenno smiled: "My sister Claire is a mage apprentice. Do you remember? She has now been accepted as an apprentice by a mage and has become a real mage. She is currently on a mission assigned by the mage. She is going to Music Country takes something.”

"I see."

Kolpa nodded and looked at the high-spirited half-elf girl with envy. Lorenno was also secretly scanning this somewhat down-and-out adventurer. His strength was actually quite good among warriors.

"What are your plans for the future?"

"After I finish this job, I'm going to return to the empire and retire."

Some aging and decadent warriors drank strong wine and laughed: "Before this trip, my plan was to hand over the team to those who quit when I returned. I never thought that I would encounter such a dangerous thing."

"If it weren't for you, I might have died in the Gnoll's belly this time."

"You don't blame them?"

"It was my fault."

Lorenno nodded, stopped asking, and clinked glasses with Kolpa with the juice in his hand.

After ending the conversation of getting closer, Lorenno walked towards the carriage and reminded the people who were planning to come over to establish a relationship that there was a mage inside. Those guys immediately stayed away from the carriage in awe. The half-elf girl opened the door of the carriage and got in, telling what she had learned and what she had learned. Several people talked.

"Don't worry about him. We'll leave when we get to the land of music anyway," the girl waved her hand. "If you really don't worry about Connie, you can just use tampering with the memory to take a break and make his memory blurred."

"I see."

Aisha stretched herself in the carriage and said: "So we are going to spend these days in the carriage? It feels so crowded~~.

"

Faced with the wolf girl's claim that she was cheap and good, Lorenno couldn't help but point her finger: "Aren't you the happiest? The four of us are your pillows."

……

As the caravan moved forward, except for the gnolls encountered on the first day, which were more dangerous, the ones encountered later were not a big deal to the escort. Bandits, kobolds, and goblins, the three with the largest number were defeated by the escort with the least loss.

Five days later, Lorenno and others approached the Country of Music. During this period, Shaluo communicated with Gray Forest. Everything was fine there. The Toxic Believers had not made any attempted attacks for several days.

"Let's go directly to the capital of the Country of Music. The Water Song Temple and the Minstrel College that happened to be agreed to the trade are both there."

Connie glanced at the map. The temple where they traded with the druids was over there, just along the way. Just as they rolled up the map, Lorenno's sensitive plant senses heard the sound of beautiful music.

The half-elf girl opened her eyes and said with interest: "It seems like this is a pretty good country?"

The five people entered the country of music with the caravan and successfully passed the checkpoint. Waves of beautiful music came from various taverns, hotels or civilian rooms on the border. Even the beggars lying beside the tavern hummed along with the music. The iron bowl in his hand vibrated to the rhythm, and the coins inside kept making sounds.

Lorenno glanced at the ground. Although there was dirt, at least it wasn't that much. As for the sewers...

The half-elf girl frowned again. What, the sewers are still exactly the same.

"Then let's leave first. I hope to see you again in the empire."

Lorenno relaxed his frown and waved to Kolpa, who had met by chance. Kolpa nodded and said, "How about I treat you to a meal?"

"No need, see you again when we are destined."

Just as Kolpa was about to answer, a white arm stretched out from the car window. The warrior's eyes immediately became a little hollow. Lorenno took this opportunity to ride away.

Connie couldn't tamper with the memories of so many people in the caravan, so Kolpa's memory could only be blurred, allowing him to ignore and somewhat forget Lorenno's appearance. As long as that was done, that was enough.

When the warrior came to his senses, he shook his head, still remembering what Flora had said to him. He looked at the carriage and the figure behind him and turned around, beckoning everyone to the caravan's chamber of commerce.

Next, the five Lorennos passed through several cities in the country of music. How can I put it, they all like music, but the level of music in the city is too clear.

The music in the slums is a bit desperate and depressing. The sounds in the civilian areas are not too happy either. They are all worried about tomorrow's food. The sounds in the tavern are full of joy and excitement. In the aristocratic area, the sounds are "excessive".

There is no pastoral area here. A large number of music-related churches are distributed in the aristocratic area of ​​the city, playing the music of Mi Mi together.

A few people were getting closer to the capital. They originally thought that the journey would be calmer, but finally a "small" episode occurred.

……

The third big town after entering the country of music is Xishui City.

Based on his usual style, Lorenno booked a luxurious room in the hotel in the aristocratic district of Brook City. Connie's identity as a mage played a big role in forcing away many bards and nobles who wanted to flirt and develop a story.

After resting for a while, Lorenno got up and left to collect information. He walked to the tavern at the junction, ordered an expensive glass of wine and sat in a single seat listening to the voices of other customers.

Chapter 504 The bard who looks a lot like him

"Have you heard that the great God of Beauty, God of Music, Goddess of Joy and other churches are organizing a celebration to welcome the New Year?"

"Oh, when? Where?"

"It's going to be held all over the continent. What should I say, do you want to take advantage of the New Year to 'relax and unwind'? You know, they will have discounts during the New Year."

"Ha, forget it, have you forgotten what happened the last time we held this kind of celebration? The Poison Goddess, the Winter Maiden, and the Goddess of Pain made a big fuss about the celebration, and we were the ones who suffered."

"...Tsk, that's true. Who makes our country inferior to 'over there'?"

"I have an idea. We might as well go to the Empire to celebrate the New Year. Although there are fewer tasks there, it is safer."

"What are you talking about? I'm still wanted over there, and I don't have much fun here..."

……

Lorenno heard some information related to the Poison Goddess from the complicated voices, and couldn't help but squint his eyes.

The New Year's Day of each country is a little different. The annual calendar will deviate within the range of minus five or plus ten days. Because the Queen found it troublesome, the New Year of the Empire was simply written in the Imperial Calendar in line with the founding time of the Empire, and there was no need to spend two days with great fanfare. .

It's December 12th in the imperial calendar, and I don't know if I can go back to the empire to celebrate the New Year this year.

Shaking her head, the half-elf girl thought about whether she would encounter problems on the way to the capital. From what they said, the celebration was held recently, and it was probably as chaotic as the Empire Tournament.

Be careful...

The rest of the news in the tavern were all trivial matters. Lorenno listened to the song for a while, and the strange movement in the plant senses made her pay attention to it.

……

"Quick! Find where that damn bard is!"

A group of noble private soldiers were angrily searching for something.

Well, they rushed from the aristocratic area along the way and were currently approaching the tavern. The half-elf girl narrowed her eyes, put down her wine glass, left the tavern and hid in the alley.

She saw the bard who was being chased. He looked very similar to Derien who wrote to her. He also had a very strong magical aura about him, as if he had stolen some powerful magic item from a noble family.

She planned to take a look first to see what was going on.

The handsome guy who looks very similar to Derien, but has shaved off his beard and is very neat, is currently in a state of embarrassment. He keeps hiding here and there and keeps mumbling: "Damn old guy, why don't you let me do such a troublesome thing?" If I ask for any help, I think there will be noble people to help me, but I don’t see any noble people!”

"If I'm really caught, I'll tell that noble that you old man asked me to do it, beep beep beep beep -"

Seeing that they were about to be overtaken, some naughty bards became anxious. They held their heads and dodged arrow after arrow, shouting loudly: "Hey, can anyone help me? I'm Nelund!" Those guys behind are all followers of the evil god!"

No one paid attention to the bard's words. The civilians had no intention of resisting these private soldiers and squatted on the ground skillfully without disturbing them.

Lorenno couldn't help but shake his head and put on his hood and mask. The leaf ornaments hindered the prophecy. Although he didn't know if she was the one in the prophecy, he should help.

"damn it!"

Nelund shouted, turned around and picked up the strings to wave, and a beautiful song like a siren emerged from his throat, but the warrior in front broke the song with a roar, and a large group of warriors rushed towards the bard. come over.

"Sehalu!"

1st level [Grease Technique]!

A puddle of oil appeared in front of the soldiers. A large group of soldiers fell to the ground, and some people stepped directly over the oil. Nelund had to pull out the long sword at his waist and prepare for close combat, with cold sweat dripping from his face.

He's not good at close combat.

The thrust of the sword was ignored. Nelund looked at the sword blade and rolled over to avoid it. However, he could no longer dodge the next sword and could only close his eyes.

dang!

A crisp sound came, and the bard felt no pain. He opened his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the person protecting him. He looked at Lorenno's back carefully and thought to himself: The person who saved me is actually a dwarf ranger?

Bounced away the enemy's sword, Lorenno asked in a disguised hoarse voice: "What kind of noble did you offend? The private soldiers don't look like they are here to catch you after you steal something."

Especially the leader, the captain, had jealousy in his eyes.

"Uh, this..."

"Forget it, we'll talk about it later, help me!"

Protecting a bard among several mid-level professionals, and unable to use conspicuous psychic powers, Lorenno prepared himself by taking a deep breath.

Boost your energy!

"careful!"

The captain who originally rushed towards Lorenno was blinded. He saw the hooded girl suddenly disappearing in the distance and then rushed in front of him. He knew that he could not catch up with the girl's speed, so he immediately activated [Tide of Action] to adjust his posture. Come back and block Lorenno's blow.

Before he could feel lucky, Lorenno's other hand stabbed him directly between the eyebrows with a magically disguised Immortal Slash. There was only a muffled sound, and the captain was immediately knocked away.

Ok?

Lorenno frowned and looked at the bard dissatisfied: "Are they really followers of the evil god?"

"Ah this-"

"Who are the followers of the evil god, you damn bard!"

The warrior's head was hard enough, and Immortal Slash was passive and merciful. The leader sat up from the ground and cursed loudly. He seemed to realize that Lorenno was not his accomplice. He gritted his teeth and said: "Brother Ranger! Don't believe it. Him! He and, he and..."

As if there was something unspeakable, the leader waved his sword and said: "What are you doing standing still? Come on!"

The stunned warrior stepped forward again. Lorenno realized that something was wrong. Not knowing who was right and who was wrong, she put away the singing pan and let her sister come out. She was going to run away with the bard.
