"Alright. I also wanted to know how Kensi was doing. Besides, Little White should be tired…I had to let the horse rest.”
Little White, who had been running beside Allie, was running with its tongue out.
"I'll send two soldiers to scout the city first. It was not too late to decide whether to enter the city or not after hearing the report.”
According to the original plan, they should have arrived at Jacker Fortress by now.
However, due to unexpected incidents happening one after another, even if they were a little over-vigilant, they would not lose anything if they were careful.
"Rest after another six kilometers. What does Qing Yang think?"
"It doesn't matter even if I rest now.”
Actually, Qing Yang wasn't tired. It was just that his butt was hurting. Compared to Qing Yang, Ai Li didn't seem to feel bitter at all. She looked relaxed. Her butt clearly looked very soft…Qing Yang couldn't help but want to confirm the softness of her butt. At this moment, a scene flashed across his eyes, causing him to shout out reflexively.
"Ellie! Stop!"
Allie immediately stopped the horse.
Kulun and the soldiers behind him were a step too late. They only stopped after they overtook the two of them.
"What's wrong? Did you bite your tongue?"
"No! A child was attacked there!"
Qing Yang said anxiously.
"This is incredible! Where was he? Who attacked you?"
Allie quickly turned around and looked around.
"Over there!"
Looking in the direction where Qing Yang's index finger was pointing, Ellie's nervousness immediately dissipated.
"That's not a child."
"Eh? But it looks like a human…"
Did he see wrongly? Thinking this, Qing Yang rubbed his eyes repeatedly. The little fellow in front of him, who looked like a child, was being attacked by a bird that was about twice the size of a bald goose.
"Kulun, although it's a little early, let's rest here.”
"Yes, sir!"
Ellie dismounted first and reached out her hand to Qing Yang.
"Those two creatures, the one that looks like a bird is an Owl Beast, and the one that looks like a child is a Goblin.”
After Qing Yang got off the horse with Ellie's help, he tilted his head and sized up the goblin. Although there were monsters a thousand years ago, there shouldn't have been such petite monsters. Goblins had small horns on their heads, skin like that of humans, a pair of round eyes, and a cute baby face. It was wearing a green one-piece dress and was waving a small branch at the owl beast.
"Goblins! This…was actually a Goblin from this world? Isn't she too cute? What kind of setting was this! There was such a cute monster? How could I leave him in the lurch!”
Even though they were quite a distance away, they could still tell that the little fellow was quite desperate. The enemy was attacking from a high altitude. Its small palm could not even form a structure, let alone counterattack. Qing Yang watched from afar with a worried expression. Just as he decided to help, Ellie grabbed his shoulder.
"If you get too close, you'll be implicated. Don't worry about it.”
"Such a cute little thing, we must save it, right? Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to sleep well at night!”
"No, that's not what I meant. You'll understand when you look at it a little longer.”
Allie hugged her knees and sat on the ground. Kulun instructed the soldiers to " confirm the situation in the city." Then, the two horses kicked up a cloud of sand and dust as they galloped across the barren wilderness. Qing Yang was looking nervously at the goblin, but as he watched, his face gradually turned pale. Groups of Goblins emerged from the ground one after another. One of the goblins climbed onto its companion's back, and then another goblin jumped onto it. Just like that, they slowly piled up into a pillar and knocked the owl beast down with the small branches.
"Ahh…What's going on…"
"It is said that goblins were originally earth elves, but because they liked to play pranks, they angered the elven king, so they were demoted to the earth elves of the continent of Cirrus. They had a good relationship with the little people and often saw goblins helping the little people with forging work.”
Bravely facing an enemy twice his size, his attitude was touching. His swift movements did not give his opponent any time to counterattack, toying with his opponent in the palm of his hand. However, perhaps because the Goblin was only using a small branch to hit it, the damage was only annoying. Although the Owl Beast looked impatient, it did not seem to feel pain at all.
No matter what, Qing Yang felt that the Goblins were very cute." If you had gone to help just now, you would probably be getting beaten up together with the Owl Beast.”
"Fortunately, I didn't go over. That kind of attack would make people feel very annoyed.”
"Hehe, that's right. However, if the Goblins didn't use branches, they would be very terrifying!”
"Specifically?"
"Well…Kulun was beaten to the brink of death. Some people even called the goblin's ultimate move " Limitless Arcane." As expected of a creature that was originally an elf. It was indeed very strong.”
The attack that almost took Cullen's life was terrifying. When Qing Yang felt a shiver down his spine, the goblin threw away the tree branch and began to beat him up with his bare hands. However, the figure of the Owl Beast, which was enduring the attack of the small hand, only looked even more empty and desolate. In the end, the Owl Beast, who could no longer withstand the goblins 'attacks, flapped its wings and fled to the other side of the sky. The battle had come to an end.
"By the way, goblins are only female!”
"Do you think I'm blind? Can't I see that dress? Wait...'only' females? Then they…"
Qing Yang thought carefully for a moment and drew in a breath of cold air!
When Allie said the key word that caught people's attention, the soldiers who went to investigate the situation in the city just returned.
There was also a well-dressed man beside him.
As soon as the man arrived, he immediately jumped off his horse, raised his hand to his chest, and knelt on one knee, completely unconcerned about the mud.
"Your Highness Ariel, Florence, nice to meet you. I am Kulutegiyaso, and I am currently guarding the city on behalf of Lord Koda.”
Allie stood up and also raised her hand in front of her chest.
"I'm Ariel, Frances, Lisa, Lorraine, Jill, Atlantis. I've been granted the position of major general by His Majesty the Emperor.”
As expected of the princess, her elegant demeanor was very appropriate.
"Lord Yasuo, where is uncle now?”
"His Lordship is currently at Jacker Fortress. Four days ago, the Liao Duchy had crossed the border and launched an attack. According to the report, the enemy had as many as twelve thousand men. However, thanks to the " Maiden God of War," the current battle situation remained in a stalemate.”
Yasuo handed over an envelope.
" My lord has instructed me to give this letter to my niece if she comes to Kensi.””
Allie took the letter, opened the wax seal and took out a piece of paper to read.
She nodded repeatedly as if she was chewing on the content, then looked at Cullen.
"Kulun!"
"Yes, sir!"
Other than Kulun, the other six heavy infantrymen immediately knelt down.
"Let's head to Jacker Fortress. However, before that, he had to rest in Linkens.”
After experiencing several battles, everyone rode their horses to this place without sleeping.
Even though Kulun and the others were well-trained soldiers, they did not show any signs of fatigue, but their bodies must have accumulated a considerable amount of fatigue.
"Qing Yang, why don't you take a look?"
"You're letting me read the letter so easily?”
Qing Yang looked at Ai Li in surprise.
Although it depended on the content, a letter signed to a person like this would usually not be shown to others.
At least that was what Qing Yang knew. However, Ellie nodded and stuffed the letter into Qing Yang's hands.
The content wrote:
My dearest Lorraine: I'm glad you've arrived safely at Kensi. However, shouldn't we talk about it when we meet again? I'll wait for you at Jacker Fortress.
Russekirkoda
"No…your uncle isn't very smart, is he? There was nothing written! I thought it was an urgent letter! This…This letter…Forget it! Lord Asso, how many soldiers does Jacker Fortress currently have?”
"If we include the Third Royal Army brought by the 'Maiden War God', there will be a total of about 3,000.”
"This…What the hell is this! There's a huge disparity in strength, okay?"
After all, it was 3,000 troops against 12,000 troops. It was no wonder that Ellie had a gloomy expression.
Qing Yang began to think about the changes in the current situation, and then he could not help but sigh. Thinking about it carefully, Qing Yang had no status in this world. He might even be worse than a commoner. If he hadn't met Allie, he would probably have ended up on the streets. Even if a person like him had planned a battle, it was impossible for him to be used.
Moreover, no one would believe that he was a hero from a thousand years ago.
" Maybe Allie will believe it..."
In short, before he got a grasp of the overall situation, he would keep this secret for now.
He could only think about it when the time was right. It wouldn't be too late to judge what was the best thing to do.
Qing Yang raised his head and looked up. The blue sky was completely oblivious to the emotions of the people on the ground. It was so clear that it stretched as far as the eye could see.
The border city of Kensi was a wonderful town where deserts and grasslands coexisted. It was divided into the north and south.
The southern part of the town's entrance was a desert area. Usually, there would be vendors gathered on the streets, making it very lively. However, the city was now filled with the smell of war, and no one opened their doors to do business. The lower-class citizens who lived in this area also stayed indoors. Only a few people could be seen in the inns and taverns.
There was a public carriage station for nobles in the grasslands of the North District. Now, it was packed with nobles who were afraid of being involved in the war and were busy packing their luggage. The atmosphere was somber.
Walking along the street from the courier station was the residence of Lord Koda.
On the first floor of the mansion, next to the path connecting the bathroom, there was a room filled with books on the history of the town and the empire.
In the square-shaped room, bookshelves were placed on all four sides. On the cabinets were all kinds of books, from ancient books to the latest collections. Those that couldn't fit in the cabinet were piled on the floor. In the center of this room, which was called the library, there was a simple, long table without any unnecessary decorations. It emphasized its presence like the owner of the room.
Right under the table, Little White completely lost its usual white wolf's prestige. Instead, it hid like a puppy drenched in the rain, trembling all over.
The table was completely occupied by a mountain of books, and there was a man sitting on the ground reading beside the table. It was the black-haired, black-eyed youth Qing Yang, who had a gentle appearance and a delicate appearance.
"Sigh…this is too embarrassing.”
After Qing Yang placed the book he was reading on the table, he pinched his brows with his fingers and tried to smooth out his tightly knitted wrinkles.
He felt as if he was forced to look back at the dark history he had written in the middle age.
Every book recorded the stories of the first emperor, and whenever he appeared, he would naturally mention himself, who was called Qing Yang at that time.
To Qing Yang, it was only three years ago, but it had already been a thousand years in this world.
He had even been deified. Just thinking about it gave him a headache.
"But it's really strange…"
Three years ago, when he was thirteen years old, he had already returned to his original world, Earth, from the Sirius Continent.
However, every biography recorded that Qing Yang became the second emperor and died of old age.
"I…I have already transmigrated back! Who was this Liu Qingyang? Imposter? You violated my right to my name…Unfortunately, there's no court to accept it!”
Qing Yang thought of a possibility, but immediately shook his head in self-discipline. Anyway, it was a thousand years ago. It wouldn't change anything now. In order to change his mood, Qing Yang shifted his gaze to the window. The sunset clouds spread from the west, blocking the sun hanging in the sky like a prank. With the help of the light coming in through the window, Qing Yang took out a card from the inner pocket of his uniform. This was given to him by the first emperor Lance before he returned to his original world.
"It's also very similar to Elven Cards."
Although the book listed very similar card pictures, there were no plain cards, and they did not look thick.
What exactly was this card? How should he use it?
"I can't be like the Divine Emperor Savior…"
The Elven King's blessing was an " external " power, far beyond the reach of human wisdom.
