"no problem--"

The stone pillar rewrapped the professional and squeezed it instantly, and the bloody corpse disappeared completely. The earth giant stared at Lorenno and waited for her to speak. The girl said: "What is the covenant you are talking about?"

"If - these are - I cannot - answer -, the inherited memory - will tell you -, just wait - wait for the moment of return - the last ally -"

"I understand, then I'll take my leave. The remaining polluters should not bother you again, and the same goes for those who mine stones."

"Very good - this is the meeting gift I - give you - accept it -"

The earth djinn just wanted to kill people and vent its anger, and did not ask Lorenno to bring everyone over. A large red gem appeared on the ground in front of the girl's eyes. Her eyes lit up instantly and she stuffed the gem into her pocket unceremoniously. Who knew? Don’t like sparkly stuff?

He bowed as his sister had done and left the cave. When Lorenno came out of the cave, he saw Mila, whose clothes were in some tatters, sitting on a smooth and clean rock, waiting. When the girl appeared, he said hello: "It seems that you haven't come out yet." Question, Miss Lorenno."

"Miss Mira, something happened to you over there?"

"It's a long story, but another legend has arrived in Crystal City."

In Count Lot's mansion, Lei Gu, who was waiting for news, was shocked when he saw the legendary assassin entering the room, covering his chest: "Sir, what's wrong with you?!"

"He had a fight with a legendary vampire. If my legend hadn't arrived in time, he would have died."

A low voice sounded, and Lei Gu frowned and looked at the gloomy man who entered from behind and the legend hidden in the black robe: "Second brother? Why are you here."

The second prince directly took out the token. Lei Gu immediately knelt down when he saw it. The man said: "Listen, stop the pollution plan, issue an emergency assembly order, and issue the highest secret mission - to find the defected princess Connie..." Aquila.”

Lei Gu looked up in surprise and shouted in disbelief: "The little guy ran away? Is the guard an idiot?! How did he get here?!"

Chapter 69 The girl picked up from a wealthy family

"Get up." The second prince and the fourth prince are not far apart, but the token just represents King Lei Gucai knelt down. "The necklace given to her by the previous queen has always sealed the 9-ring [portal]. Even she herself It seems that she only discovered it after a year, and then she pestered the people we arranged to take her to the magic academy and secretly absorbed the magic power."

"Just the day before yesterday, she made an excuse to try to take risks in the palace. After 7 years, our people have long been lax and helped her prepare things. Yue, only yesterday morning did she realize that Connie was missing. She barely detected it through the legendary mage of the prophecy system. She landed here, it is the farthest town that the portal in the necklace can reach, she must be looking for Or Pus."

Lei Gu couldn't believe it: "Seven years, a whole seven years, God of Nobles, how could she hide for so long and no one discovered her?"

Connie is now 14 years old. She was only 7 years old when their father seized power. After so many years of education and brainwashing, she still allowed her to find out the truth and run away. Or...she knew all along and was just pretending to make them relax their vigilance?

The second prince sighed: "You have inherited our aunt's wisdom, haven't you?"

The current king of the Principality of Greyhawk did not inherit the throne in an orthodox way, but killed his sister to seize the throne. Her daughter, their cousin Princess Connie, has the strongest claim to the Principality of Greyhawk. No prince wants her Escape.

Lei Gu immediately carried out the order issued by the king, and before leaving, he asked: "Has the matter not been spread?"

"Don't worry, absolutely not."

"You were beaten by two legends and they didn't chase you?"

Lorenno tilted his head, and Mira thought thoughtfully: "They may have other tasks. I'll go back to Crystal City first."

Before the girl said goodbye, Mira disappeared without a trace, leaving only one sentence: "The mission was completed well, and the boots will be your reward."

"Sister, did you see how she left?"

[Shadow plane. 】

"Oh~"

Lorenno and her sister were chatting and walking, guessing what would happen next, wondering whether Lei Gu would continue to send people to hunt her after so many people died.

While they were talking, the half-elf girl walking on the avenue stopped and talked to herself, listening to the sounds of nature and nodding from time to time. In the end, she did not take a shortcut but followed the guide of the forest deeper.

She heard Huacao say that someone had fainted, so she planned to go and have a look. If she was a good person, she would save her, and if she was a bad person, she would kill him.

Following the silent directions, Lorenno soon discovered the person who fainted in the pit. This was a girl. She closed her eyes tightly and seemed to be having a nightmare. For some reason, she smeared a layer of ash on her face, golden and white. Her hair was a little dry and her lips were chapped, it looked like she hadn't drank water for a while.

Lorenno took out a water bottle from his dimensional bag and poured some into her half-open lips. He leaned over and touched her clothes curiously. The cloak was very gorgeous, and the outfit she wore was much silkier than what she was wearing, and she couldn't beat it. The dimensional bag that was opened looks like it belongs to a wealthy family, how could it be dropped here?

As for the most important life safety issue, Lorenno had long discovered that she just fainted due to hunger, fatigue, and various panic emotions, so there was no need to worry too much.

Without thinking much, Lorenno tied her hands to prevent her from pretending to sleep, carried the girl, who was about the same age as him, and continued towards Crystal City, preparing to save the girl.

"Sister, do you think she is a rich lady? Can I get a lot of reward for saving her?"

Lorenno said jokingly, but he actually didn't care about the reward. It would be best to have it, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't.

Halfway through, the unknown girl suddenly began to twist her body. Her expression seemed to be that she was having a nightmare. She patted the unknown girl's thigh and sang the song her mother had taught her a cappella. The twisting subsided and the half-elf was able to continue moving forward.

Ignoring other people's gazes, Lorenno took the girl back to the hotel and asked the shopkeeper to bring hot water. He delicately took off the girl's cloak and clothes with his fingers, peeled off everything and put them aside neatly.

"Wake up, miss, wake up..."

The half-elf girl was sure that the blonde girl wouldn't wake up for a while, so she happily picked up the girl who was smaller than herself and put her into the hot water to help clean her body.

Lorenno had long wanted to do this to her master, but every time she wanted to help with the bath, the master would notice and glare back. In fact, the ideal type in her heart was the kind of erudite and young master who looked cold but was actually very cold inside. A gentle girl, well, the most important thing is that she is younger than her. Although the girl in front of her only meets one of the criteria, she is pretty good.

Lorenno rubbed the dirt off the girl's arms with both hands, interlocked his fingers to clean the residue from the gaps between the fingertips, and gently stroked the collarbone and armpits to treat every place, as if he was bathing a motionless doll, meticulously Consider everything.

Curling his hair with his fingers and sniffing it, Lorenno sighed contentedly - ah, it is indeed better to be younger than him~, he still wanted to take the initiative.

Helping her to clean her body inside and out, the half-elf turned the girl's face to face her. After wiping off the ashes, she turned out to be very beautiful. She must have wanted to hide her face to reduce prying eyes, just like herself.

After moving her to the bed and covering her with a quilt, Lorenno put her things on the table, changed the water again and cleaned up the blood stained herself.

Halfway through washing, Lorenno heard a rustling sound coming from the bed. She rubbed her arms and turned around. The nameless girl who was originally very wary froze when she saw the face and ears of the half-elf girl, her expression visible to the naked eye. He relaxed a little, but within a few seconds he became alert again.

Lorenno looked at her with a smile: "Hello, I am ranger Lorenno. I saw you fell in the forest, so I took it upon myself to bring you back, and I also helped you clean up your body."

"--Thanks……"

After hearing this, the girl scanned the environment. The noise under the hotel and the sacred sword leaning on the edge of the bed made her completely relaxed. When she wanted to get up, she found that she was still naked and quickly retracted the quilt. She looked at Lorenno shyly, gray His eyes were full of gratitude: "Thank you, I am K...Claire, a mage's apprentice."

"Why are you lying in the forest?"

Lorenno didn't know if Claire was telling the truth, he just wanted to talk to her to reassure her.

"Well..." Claire covered her head as if thinking about it, "My teacher was doing a teleportation experiment, and he accidentally implicated me and got me involved. By the way, where is this place?"

"Crystal City of the New Nethalian Empire."

When the girl named Claire heard that she had arrived in the empire, she wiped her eyes hard and said, "Huh? It's really unexpected that I came so far away, but...(sobbing)...Thank you for the blessing of the endless light..."

Chapter 70 Escape from the encounter between the nightingale and the half-elf

Connie Aquila stood in the sea of ​​​​fire, looking at everything in front of her indifferently.

The little girl was curled up on the bed motionless, and her mother collapsed outside the door, huskily and tenderly speaking her last warning: "My sweetheart, you have to be strong... you have to be strong..."

This was her nightmare, a nightmare she would never forget for seven years.

……

"Your Highness, it's time to get up."

Connie lazily sat up from the bed, looked at the maid and said sweetly:

"Sister Youan, help me get dressed."

The maid had a helpless smile on her face, and helped Connie Aquila wash her face and brush her teeth. After getting dressed and decorated, Connie turned around in front of the mirror and saluted the maid, and said with a sunny smile: "How is it?"

"It's very beautiful, my dear Princess. Today's schedule is to go to the Magic Academy in the morning, then attend a tea party in the afternoon, and free reading time in the evening."

"There's no etiquette class. That's great. Are you ready with everything I want?"

Connie was extremely happy, and the maid was a little embarrassed: "We have prepared clothes and the like, but the food can only be prepared by the chef on the spot. They said that your body is too delicate to eat cold food."

Recently, Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Principality of Gray Eagle had read some adventure book and had the idea of ​​camping in the garden to "survive in the wild". Naturally, they, the servants, had to do their best to do it. Although they had prepared a lot of things, in order to prevent the princess from If you have extra room for operation, you should selectively withhold certain things.

"Really? Then bring the food!"

Connie was not unhappy, and the maid breathed a sigh of relief and asked other maids to bring up the things, not-so-gorgeous clothes, not-so-gorgeous cloaks, a wand to assist in casting spells...

There is no food inside, so even if Connie wants to go anywhere, she can't go far. Her range of movement is actually very wide. As long as she doesn't leave the capital, everything will be fine.

Looking at the things on the ground, Connie nodded like a little adult and said with satisfaction: "Very good, now you can explore the garden at night."

The maid smiled helplessly and turned back to help the princess get the crown. When her fingers touched the crown, it felt like being pricked by needles. Her heart suddenly stung, and she fell to the ground weakly.

There are assassins? !

The maid was shocked. The small and gorgeous boots stepped in front of her. When she realized something, the maid opened her eyes wide and looked up. She showed a warm smile no matter how many hardships she encountered in the past 7 years. Diamond Connie of the Principality of Greyhawk was loved by all the servants. ·Aquila looked at her expressionlessly.

"Your Highness, what are you doing?"

Connie didn't reply. She pulled out the sword that was used as a decoration beside the bed and pointed it at the eye of the servant who had been monitoring her for seven years. She stabbed and stirred it without hesitation. After throwing away the sword, her hands trembled. It was the first time she killed someone. The people who have taken care of her for 7 years are not afraid, but excited...she can finally leave this hell!

For seven years, she endured hatred and resentment, greeted her enemies with a smile, and became extremely close to the person who killed her mother and imprisoned her father in exchange for this opportunity. She had checked the empire map in advance to see the furthest distance the necklace could reach. It's Crystal City, far enough away from the Principality of Gray Eagle.

Taking out the crystal that had been hanging on her chest, Connie put all the adventure items and potentially valuable things in the room into the dimensional space. She held the crystal in both hands and recited the spell. The slight magic fluctuations quickly intensified, and as the frequency increased, the surrounding space began to Twisted, the princess vaguely seemed to see her mother's smile, and she suppressed her tears and continued to recite the spell.

The door was suddenly pushed open, and the mage who sensed the coming magic power saw the fluctuations in the space and his eyes shrank. At this time, it was too late to stop it. The space shattered like a mirror. Connie Aquila disappeared into her boudoir and started her real life. .

In mid-air in the forest far away in Crystal City, the space door was opened, and Connie fell from it. She opened her eyes in the sky and quickly recited the Feather Falling Technique. After ensuring safety, she looked towards the ground. The endless forest seemed to be extremely beautiful. Something attracted her.

Landing smoothly, Connie took off her princess dress and put on a cloak and clothes suitable for the wild. She used pathfinding to determine the nearest town and started moving forward. She was already out of breath after walking less than 500 meters. During the process, she accidentally fell into Hit a pothole.

After a day of stumbling and stopping, the girl's body was already covered with scars, her skin as soft as a baby was covered with purple-green accumulation, and her feet were covered with blood blisters, but Connie smiled very happily, feeling the pain from all the time. She felt pain that she had never felt before. For the first time, she felt that she was still alive. She never thought that hunger and overwork would make her fall directly into the pit. Fortunately, the professionals had recently cleaned up almost all the monsters around, otherwise this The princess may have to die in a strange mouth.

Half an hour later, a half-elf girl poked her head out and followed nature's guidance to find the destitute princess.

……

When Connie woke up from a daze, she found herself lying naked on the bed. She was suddenly shocked. Fortunately, there was no obvious pain. In other words, she was already prepared for possible bad things and was not too panicked.

Hearing the singing and the sound of running water coming from the side, Connie stood up and looked warily, holding a spell gesture in her hand and preparing to attack. A girl about her age was taking a bath. When she heard the noise, she turned around and looked at her. Her Royal Highness the Princess couldn't help but be stunned——

She has many "friends", all of whom are daughters of noble families. She has also seen beautiful elves and half-elves, but the little person in front of her is much prettier than them all. The first thing she noticed was her crystal-like dazzling purple eyes, and then It was the face, before drawing attention to what it should have been... her ears, which Connie could tell was a half-elf by their length and sharpness.

"Hello, I am Ranger Lorenno..."

"I'm K...Claire..."

The girl smiled softly. Connie made up a false name and looked around, listening to the noise that she had never heard in the palace.

She was sure that she had met a good person, that she had come to Crystal City according to her goal, and that she had completed her escape plan safely. Finally, she couldn't help but let tears of joy burst into her eyes. She wiped away the tears that she shed more and more, and said with sobs: " Thank you for the endless blessing of light..."

Mother...I did it...

Pretending to be strong, Connie looked at Lorenno with red eyes. She had a lot to say but couldn't say it. The half-elf girl didn't ask any questions and said to her with a smile: "Would you like to go to Crystal City for a walk? There is still a little time before evening." , everyone has secrets, it’s just a chance encounter, I won’t ask more questions.”

"Okay...thank you, Miss Lorenno."

Feeling the kindness of strangers, Connie smiled sincerely for the first time in seven years.

Nightingale finally got out of her cage.

Chapter 71 Getting to know each other

After taking a shower, Lorenno handed Claire more plain clothes: "Wear these, your ones are still too fancy."

Claire shyly took the clothes, but Lorenno changed his clothes without shame and went out. When Claire came out, the half-elf girl belatedly handed her the faceless mask she got in the arena: "You should need it. this?"

"Thank you."

"You're welcome. I will quote you the original price when the time comes."

Lorenno said very realistically. It would be better to say that this was her way of reassuring Claire. She had always believed that nothing was free in the world, and that only by clearly calculating the interests between passers-by could the relationship be closer.

The two were walking on the street at dusk. The miners and adventurers had finished their day's work and were going home to have a good rest. Lorenno took Claire to a restaurant where she often ate for a meal. From the movements of her knife and fork, Much like Molly Alice and others, she was sure that she was from a wealthy family. At the same time, Claire was also observing the eating movements of others and the adventurer in front of her, and found that the girl who rescued her was also different from the others, and wondered whether she was Of the Temple of Endless Light.

"What are you going to do after dinner?"

"I need to go to the Imperial Recruitment Office to apply for an adventurer certificate. Can you take me there?"

Claire took out her identity certificate, which was also done when her mother was still alive. She had made preparations to resist her uncle's failure a long time ago.

"Okay, let's separate after getting the identity certificate. I have some enemies here, and I'm afraid they will attack you."

Lorenno nodded, and Claire asked curiously and worriedly: "Okay, but can you tell me what kind of person he is? I'm afraid he has already set his sights on me."

"His name is Regu the Resolute Fang," Claire's heart beat violently involuntarily when she heard the name Regu. Her expression became even more ugly as Lorenno described and sketched, "He is a spy from the Federation, and he looks like this... …”

Seeing the disguises commonly used by her fourth cousin in the sketch, Claire couldn't help but sigh. Sure enough, she still couldn't escape. She thought she could escape the pursuers for a long time, but she didn't expect that Lei Gu was here to perform a task she didn't understand. Lorenno said: "Miss Lorenno, are you interested in forming an adventure team with me? I have a grudge against Regu. I can tell you his true identity. He is Regu Aquila, from the Principality of Gray Eagle. The Fourth Prince."

Lorenno immediately acted silently and took Claire back to the hotel. He crushed the crystal that Mira gave her in his hand and explained to the mage girl: "I have a friend from the Empire. If what you said is true, she should be able to Find the evidence and arrest Lei Gu.”

Claire immediately said after hearing this: "I only believe you. If possible, don't tell them about me, okay?"
