Chapter 201 ·Taking advantage of the danger of the dragon

The coalition forces formed by the Autumn Offensive stayed in the place where the dragon rested for two days, and then immediately moved to Duncan Castle, forty miles to the southeast. A paradise for dark creatures and profane creations.

The large forest goblin camp captured by the coalition forces was directly burned to the ground by the human soldiers. All the spider statues, green leather signs, and buildings were all torn down and destroyed. Such a huge building, even if the green skin creatures want to rebuild it, It will take four to five years.

During the march, a scouting team of rangers, stalkers, and dwarven gyroplanes led by the wood elf woodland lord went deep into another stronghold of the Red Venom tribe, the infamous Dark Abyss, near the Dark Abyss. A few miles away, the wood elves discovered a huge killing field, and the **** battlefield was covered with thousands of forest goblins and the remains of chaos horned beasts.

Beastmen and forest goblins, two races who are also enemies of mankind fought a battle, and both sides paid a terrible price. This never occurred to Lai Lun. After another urgent discussion, the coalition forces finally decided to take back Duncan Castle first. most important.

Time passed day by day, seasons changed, especially the temperature difference between day and night inside the Black Forest, which caused a lot of non-combat losses, and marching in the Black Forest in winter, it is very easy to encounter all kinds of dangerous predatory monsters, Lai Lun has been relying on Scouting by wood elf scouts, avoiding unnecessary enemies, he cannot always rely on the help of elves.

Along the way, the dragon princess Shen Zhu kept herself safe and followed Draco’s army obediently. She had goodwill to everyone around her and would do what she could, especially her magical oriental medical skills, helping more than 20 people The wounded got rid of the torment of sores. This behavior allowed Shenzhu to win the respect and trust of everyone in the coalition army.

Inevitably, after a period of time, several lords including Adrian thought it would be dishonorable to send the Eternal Knight to monitor Shen Zhu, so Lai Lun also relaxed his vigilance and removed the guard who was in charge of guarding the Dragon Princess. Four knights, in the wilderness, she can’t go anywhere.

After nightfall, the camp where the coalition troops stationed fell into silence. The vast land in the north of the empire was already covered with a layer of snow. The continuous fires in the camp illuminated the darkness and drove away the hungry animals.

Outside the tent, Long Nu was wrapped in a thick woolen cloak, her pretty face was flushed with cold, she looked up at the night sky full of novelty, and said to herself: “The weather in the old world is really cold~”

As she spoke, she peeked around cautiously and cautiously. Very well, all the human knights outside the tent were removed by that nasty guy, leaving only a few night watchmen.

Princess Dragon couldn’t help cheering in her heart. Taking the opportunity, she stood on tiptoe and walked gently through one tent after another. Ten minutes later, Shen Zhu came to the edge of the camp along a path stepped on by three people. The dwarf in charge of the night sat behind the wooden fence, warming himself by the fire and holding his wine glass.

“Hey~~~” There was a loud, long drink, and the long-bearded dwarf wearing an iron helmet blushed and patted his stomach with satisfaction. He noticed the familiar figure tiptoeing around, and waved happily to say hello: ” Good evening! Miss Shin Joo, where are you going so late?”…

“Shhh! Mr. Abby the Beard, stop talking!”

Princess Dragon looked around guiltily, and opened her beautiful almond eyes wide. She pretended to be annoyed and said, “Didn’t I tell you to drink less beer these days? The wound on your shoulder has healed, right?”

“Huh? Oh…” The dwarf scratched the back of his head and stopped talking.

After confirming that there was no one around, just like that, Shen Zhu climbed over the last trench and came outside the camp.

Late at night, the earthy smell of nature rushes towards my face, the long-lost freedom, I finally don’t have to look at the face of that nasty guy, there is nothing more comfortable than this!

“His Royal Highness, it’s so late, where do you want to go?” Just as Shen Zhu was secretly jumping for joy, a calm voice suddenly sounded from her side. The maroon horse raised its brows and looked at Shen Zhu, the dragon girl: “You don’t rest at night, is it true that your Cathaysaurus are just like snakes, only sleeping when they are hibernating?”

“Ah, it’s you, dastardly guy! I’m bored by myself, can’t I just go out and relax?” Princess Long was startled, she patted her chest lightly, and looked back at Lai Lun with angry eyes. , became more red: “You actually follow me? Pervert! Why is there no sound when walking!”

“Several night watchmen saw you coming here. Also, you can relax inside the camp. It’s too dangerous outside. If you insist, I’ll ask a team of knights to walk slowly with you.” Lai Lun explained calmly, ignoring her weird question: “Don’t forget about our deal. Before the deal is concluded, I will be responsible for all your safety issues. Otherwise, how can I explain to your elder sister?”

“You…you are disgusting! I just walked around and didn’t enter the forest!” The dragon princess Shenzhu looked at the man in front of her fiercely: “I warn you! Don’t follow me, be careful that I will change into a dragon and eat you you!”

“Eat me, do you have the ability?” Lai Lun was inexplicably amused, and then said: “That’s good, I don’t want to trouble the knights to rest, Your Royal Highness, Princess Dragon, I give you two options, one, obediently go the same way Return to your own tent to rest; Second, you continue to relax, I will follow nearby to ensure your safety, choose yourself.”

“Cunning guy, don’t think I don’t know your little thoughts! You want to take advantage of others, no, take advantage of dragons!” The dragon girl Shenzhu showed two small white canine teeth: “I will choose the third one, and I will choose the third one for myself.” people go!”

“Sorry, there is no third choice.” Lai Lun’s tone turned cold, and he looked over with gloomy eyes.

Shen Zhu’s face turned pale, she could feel the sternness in the other party’s eyes, as if she would forcefully drag her away in the next second, and finally came out, Princess Dragon didn’t want to give up, she clenched her fists, and finally could only Said: “…Then, choose the second one! You are more rigid than Bilong Yuanbo, how annoying!”

“Very good.” After getting the reply, Lai Lun stopped talking, and he reached out his hand to signal Shen Zhu to continue walking.

In this way, the two of them walked along the small path on the edge of the camp under the quiet forest under the first snow. Princess Long knew that she could not escape Lun’s surveillance, so she walked ahead and accelerated as if angry. step. …

Lai Lun hung a long sword at his waist, led the steed, kept a distance of about five steps, and followed behind her unhurriedly.

During this period of time, he had been dubious about Shen Zhu’s explanation, and took advantage of the opportunity of withdrawing the guards to test her actions. Sure enough, he couldn’t help but tried to sneak out on the first night.

Baron Draco is very patient, he wants to see where Shen Zhu wants to go.

But for Princess Dragon, the awkward silence between the two made her very angry. Along the way, apart from the two footsteps stepping on the snow at different rhythms, the only thing left was the chirping of nightingales on the treetops.

The night was cold and windy, and Shen Zhu’s anger at the beginning had almost disappeared.

Gradually, she, who was no different from an ordinary person, felt the cold, and then stopped, wrapped herself tightly without leaking a single gap, stomped off the snow on her boots with small steps, and at the same time exhaled hot air, and rubbed her hands together. He rubbed his little hands: “Ha~~~”

Princess Dragon rubbed her little hands, looking secretly at Lai Lun with her silvery white eyes, she couldn’t help being curious: “This guy obviously doesn’t wear much clothes, and he has walked a long way, why doesn’t he look cold at all?”

Seeing her stop, Lai Lun also stopped, stretching out his hand to stroke the neatly combed horse mane. After being blessed by Urick, not only the strength of the body has improved, but the more significant point is the frost resistance. .

Dating back to two thousand years ago, Sigma, who was chosen by Ulric, could climb the White Wolf Sacred Mountain with bare hands in the ice and snow. For three days and three nights a **** battle was fought against the Chaos army in the extreme northern frontier of the northern border, and they survived.

After a few seconds, Shen Zhu saw Lai Lun’s unaffected appearance, couldn’t help but put his hands on his hips, and said angrily, “Hey!”

Baron Draco glanced at her, and said in a flat tone, “His Royal Highness, you are tired from walking, please go back.”

“No! I just can’t stand a strange guy behind me, you, can’t you walk beside me, at least let me see you.” Shen Zhu changed her attitude and whispered: “What are you following behind?” Yes, that’s weird!”

“…um.” Lai Lun hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward and stood beside her.

The two continued to walk along the path, shoulder to shoulder. Only now did Lai Lun realize that the Dragon Princess is not tall, about 1.7 meters, a little lower than the witch hunter Eureka, barely on his shoulders.

“Hello.” During the walk, Shenzhu broke the silence first. She quickly glanced at Lai Lun, then turned to look at the forest ahead, and asked, “You, are you going to leave the camp in a while?”

“No.” Lai Lun shook his head, looking at Princess Dragon suspiciously.

“Then you still lead the horse when you come out, and the master doesn’t rest at night, and doesn’t let the mount rest? You are really bad.” The dragon girl Shenzhu said, “Do not all human knights regard the mount as their second life? I remember those giant dragon horse knights in the territory of Zhendan, each of them wanted to stick with the dragon horse all day long, and the horsemen in Longting almost bored them to death.”

“The knights of the empire and the knights of Brittania also cherish their mounts very much. Some are particularly outrageous. For example, an earl lord of a knight kingdom, he even specially vacated a whole floor for his mount Pegasus The castle is used as a stable, and all serfs are forbidden to use their eyes to defile the sanctity of Pegasus, otherwise they will have one eye gouged out as punishment.” Lai Lun was still very calm: “So that some of the serfs in his territory were one-eyed. “…

“It’s so cruel… That earl is too bad, worse than you.” Princess Dragon frowned, obviously not used to this kind of harsh punishment: “Is there no one to restrain him in the kingdom of knights you mentioned? Their king How to deal with it?”

“Constraint? Disposal?” Lailun smiled: “My Royal Highness Dragon Princess, in the Kingdom of Knights, no one will restrict knights and nobles except for the Church of the Fairies in the Lake. Although I don’t know the status of your common people in Cathay However, in the Kingdom of Knights, serfs are just a group of talking animals to knights and nobles, and they belong to the private property of the noble lords. The lives of serfs have already been clearly marked. Do you still care about a few cheap and worthless copper coins?”

“As far as the king is concerned, as long as he does not betray mankind, seek refuge in Chaos, or collude with the empire, he will not care about the actions of the nobles below, because the King of Knights also needs the support and approval of the great nobles, and the Church of the Fairy in the Lake is also So, and the serfs were even forbidden to worship the fairies of the lake.”

“I can’t imagine what kind of life those serfs are living.” Shen Zhu was very unhappy.

“I think they should have enough food, warm clothes, and a comfortable life.” Lai Lun said playfully.

“Really?”

“It doesn’t matter to us whether it’s true or not.” Baron Draco reached out and stroked the horse: “Let’s change the subject. The question you asked me just now is about why I lead this steed.”

“Would you like to tell me?” Princess Long didn’t care, and she said, “Heartless guy, if I knew it, I wouldn’t ask more, just tell me!”

“In view of your performance along the way, and your healing of my soldiers, helping them get rid of the pain caused by the sword, so, this horse is my gift to thank you instead of the soldiers who were rescued.” Lai Lun said Yes, at the same time, he handed over the reins of the maroon warhorse: “I made a mistake, it is our thanks to you.”

“Don’t underestimate it, this female mixed-breed elf war horse carefully bred by the wood elves will not lose your identity.”

“Eh? Give it, give it to me?” Princess Dragon’s silvery white eyes were full of surprise, and the unexpected turn made her face flushed, and said coyly, “I don’t want it very much.”

“Yes, I respect your choice. During the next march, you will continue to sit on the bumpy carriage.” Seeing this, Lai Lun took back the reins directly: “Stop complaining.”

“But, but it’s a gift from those soldiers, don’t even think about taking it back!” Shen Zhu hurriedly took the reins of the half-breed elf horse: “Tomorrow, tomorrow morning, I will go to thank them one by one.”

“No, I’ve already thanked you.” Lai Lun said calmly, “This half-breed elf warhorse can play a huge role. If you encounter a beastman or forest goblin, at least you have a chance.”

“Woo—” The mixed-breed elf warhorse possessed higher intelligence, and it neighed as a sign of approval.

“Thank you very much!” This sentence was addressed to Lai Lun. Shenzhu opened her arms and hugged the maroon mixed elf horse tightly: “From then on, I will call you Pearl!”

“Call——”
