470 Look, the Effect Is so Good
A night that was not peaceful in every sense of the word passed quietly.
When the sun once again rose from the east, rising over the fairy country of Britain, and shining its light on the earth, the giant tower standing on the grassland also began to leave its reflection on the ground.
At this time, Li Ge also woke up according to his biological clock.
But upon waking up, Li Ge immediately fell into a state of downtime.
"Huh...huh..."
Amidst the waves of peaceful breathing, the fairy girl fell into a peaceful sleep. Judging from her appearance, she should be sleeping very comfortably.
This is also natural.
After all, the elf girl lay in Li Ge's arms and squeezed into a sofa with Li Ge. She held Li Ge's clothes tightly with both hands and rubbed her face against Li Ge's chest from time to time. Like a napping cat, he used Li Ge as a meat pad.
How could this be uncomfortable?
Looking at this scene, Li Ge was silent for about tens of seconds, then closed his eyes and began to mutter something.
"Let's sort out the current situation first."
"First of all, judging from the current situation, it is obvious that it was not me who ran to Artoria's side, but Artoria who ran to my side."
"Moreover, not only did she squeeze into the same sofa as me, but she also held on to my clothes like a little girl who was afraid of thunder."
"It's going to be like this. It can't be like Liz did last time. She wanted to protect me personally, but she wanted me to protect her personally."
"In other words, this girl either fell asleep in the middle of the night and suddenly felt insecure and squeezed onto this sofa, or she had a nightmare and ran here unknowingly."
Li Ge analyzed this calmly.
"In that case, what is the most important thing I should do now?"
"Touch her head? Or hug her instead?"
"No, neither."
"Based on the current development, the most important thing for me to do is to get out of here before this girl gets into trouble."
Li Ge, who was mumbling like this, didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. He didn't seem to notice that the breathing rhythm of the fairy girl lying in his arms changed at some point.
The goblin girl who rubbed her face against his chest froze, and then her pretty face turned red first, then white, and finally green, until Li Ge said, "Hurry up before this girl gets into trouble. After saying "Get out of here", the fairy girl finally could no longer pretend to be asleep.
"I'm not going to start screaming as soon as I wake up! Don't run away as your first reaction, okay!?"
Arturia stood up and yelled at Rige anxiously and angrily.
Li Ge was not surprised at all by Artoria's sudden attack. Instead, he smiled and said this.
"Isn't this just trying to wake you up? Look, how effective it is."
After saying that, Li Ge patted Artoria's thigh, telling her to get up quickly and stop pressing on him.
Artoria immediately jumped up, jumped off the sofa, ran back to the corner, and squatted there motionless like last night.
This time, Artoria also hid her red face between her legs.
"Why?"
"Why is it like this?"
"I, I, I, I, how could I sleep on the same sofa with Li Ge...!?"
The fairy girl's heart was completely confused.
Coincidentally, Li Ge, who sat up, also glanced at Artoria and asked.
"What's wrong with you? Are you having a nightmare?"
Hearing this, Artoria had a big reaction.
"No!" Artoria's voice couldn't help but become louder and sharper, as if she had been stabbed in some painful spot, she shouted: "I didn't have a nightmare!"
"Then what is the situation now?" Li Ge said with a half-smile: "Could it be that Miss Artoria, who is 16 years old this year, is actually a fairy who dare not sleep alone and needs someone to accompany her?"
"That's not true!" Arturia didn't know whether she was ashamed or angry, she said angrily: "I always sleep alone! I don't have anyone to sleep with me! I don't need anyone to sleep with me!"
"Then please explain." Li Ge pointed to the faint traces of saliva on his clothes and said lightly: "What kind of development is this?"
Arturia opened her little mouth cutely, her lips trembling up and down for a long time, but she couldn't give a reasonable explanation.
There was nothing she could do, she was still daubing herself, and she had no idea how she got to the sofa.
She only remembered that she seemed to have dreamed about the usual things last night, dreaming about the malicious storm that formed this world, and she kept walking in that storm, walking aimlessly.
However, as I walked, I seemed to see a scene that I had not seen before - a sun that was emitting light and could dispel darkness and purify evil.
The sun rising in the storm was exactly the same as the image Li Ge showed yesterday when he protected himself from the attack by the Fang Clan goblins.
He stretched out his hand towards the tomorrow and ran eagerly into the sunlight that could isolate the storm.
Could it be...
"...Is it because of this that I ran to Li Ge unknowingly while sleeping in the lake?"
Thinking of this possibility, Artoria felt that her face was getting angry again, making her cheeks feel very hot.
"Looking at you, it seems that you know what's going on." Li Ge naturally noticed Artoria's unusual appearance, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Then tell me, what's going on?"
Artoria immediately glared at Lige.
"Nothing happened!" Artoria said angrily: "Don't worry about that kind of thing. Now that you've woken up, get ready to go!"
Saying these words, Artoria grabbed the Staff of Choice that had been leaning against the corner last night, and walked out with slightly angry steps.
"What a frizzy son of prophecy."
Li Ge watched this scene with a smile, and secretly unlocked the tower's access control, allowing the double doors at the entrance of the hall to slowly open.
Except for the user of this magic, no one else can control the entry or exit of a fortress tower created using the tenth level magic [Creation Fortress].
Therefore, as long as Li Ge, the caster who activated the magic, does not agree, the gate of the fortress tower will not be opened.
"Hmph! ╭(╯^╰)╮"
Arturia seemed to have noticed this when she walked to the door. Seeing the double doors slowly opening, she immediately pretended to be indifferent and snorted at Rige, and then walked out.
"【clean】."
Li Ge then used the magic of life to sweep away the dirt on his body, omitting the steps of washing his face and brushing his teeth.
"You walk slower."
After doing this, Li Ge spoke out and followed Arturia.
"be quick!"
Arturia still looked angry and childish.
The two walked out of the tower one after the other and came to the grassland outside.
"Rumble...!"
The tall tower behind him immediately sank underground as if it had completed its mission.
After a while, the fortress tower that had stood on the grassland all night completely sank into the ground and disappeared.
However, there were no gaps or damage in the open space where the tower stood, as if the fortress tower that had been here until just now had never appeared.
This phenomenon really made Artoria marvel.
"Is this really something magic can do?"
Arturia's mind once again had such an idea.
Li Ge ignored Artoria and said something after canceling the maintenance of [Creation Fortress].
"We're talking about setting off, but which direction should we go to reach the nearest city?"
Li Ge's inquiry made Artoria finally regain some composure.
The elf girl forced herself not to think about that embarrassing thing that made her feel shameless in public. She seemed to think seriously for a while before speaking to Li Ge.
"If you are sure that Tintagel is in that direction, then our current location is probably not too far from the center."
The elf girl who said this began to introduce the general situation of the elf country Britain to Rige.
Britain, the fairy country, is an island, a fairy island floating on the sea.
The capital of this island is Camelot, which is the city where the current queen of the Fairy Kingdom is located. According to some villagers in Tintagel Village, that city is likened to a fortress of evil.
With Camelot as the center, the fairy kingdom of Britain is divided into the north and the south.
Most of the fairies in the Fairy Kingdom live in the south, while fewer fairies live in the north.
Tintagel is neither in the south nor in the north, but on the western coast of the British Isles. If you go east along the road, you will enter the center with Camelot as the center.
After entering the central part, if you go north, you will first arrive at a city called Gloucester, and then you will arrive at Camelot.
If you go south, you will arrive at Salisbury, a city with a great cathedral.
"If we were in the Midlands right now, the closest cities to us would be Salisbury or Gloucester."
Artoria continued to explain to Rige.
"Gloucester is a city known as the fashion capital. There are many luxurious shops there, and most of the most popular things in the Fairy Kingdom can be found there."
"Salisbury is the largest city in the south and the freest place in the goblin kingdom of Britain. It has a total population of about 200,000. It is mainly inhabited by goblins from the three clans of Earth, Wind and Fang. There are also goblins who have obtained the right to independence. of human beings.”
"These two cities belong to the clan chief of the Wing Clan and the clan chief of the Wind Clan respectively. The two clan chiefs are the lords of these two cities."
"It just depends on which side you choose to go to."
After listening to Artoria's explanation, Li Ge fell into deep thought.
According to the description in the original work, Li Ge is basically clear about the power structure of the elf country Britain.
There is no doubt that the supreme ruler of Britain is the Queen.
Under the queen, there are the goblins who serve as the heads of the six major clans and the lords of various cities.
The clan chiefs of the six major clans each command an elf clan and each hold a territory. They are considered the most powerful nobles under the queen.
Fairy knights are knights who belong directly to the queen. Some are also given noble status and territory. Although they may not necessarily get along well with the clan leaders of the six major clans, in terms of status alone, they can obtain noble status and territory. The fairy knights are not much inferior to the clan leaders of the six major clans.
Among the clan chiefs of the six major clans, leaving aside the two in the north, the territories of the other four are all in the south.
These four clan chiefs each govern a city.
The Great Cathedral of Salisbury is governed by the leader of the Wind Clan.
The port city of Norwich is governed by the patriarch of the Earth clan.
The fashionable city of Gloucester is governed by the leader of the Winged Clan.
The large dining hall Oxford is governed by the head of the Ya clan.
Thinking of this, Li Ge glanced at Artoria beside him without any trace.
"If this girl wants to ring the pilgrim bell, she must go to these four cities, right?"
The six pilgrim bells mentioned in the prophecy of the Mirror Clan are actually controlled by the clan heads of the six major clans.
Except for one of the bells whose whereabouts are unknown, the other five bells are located in Gloucester, Salisbury, Oxford, Norwich and Orkney in northern Britain.
In other words, if Arturia wants to ring these five pilgrim bells, sooner or later she will have to face-to-face with the clan leaders who govern these cities.
This kind of confrontation may not necessarily turn into a fight, but it must not be too easy for Artoria to strike them, right?
Apart from anything else, it would definitely be extremely difficult for Artoria to ring the pilgrim bell in Oxford.
After all, Oxford is the territory of the clan leader of the Fang Clan, and the clan leader of the Fang Clan is Hui Yaling, the ferocious goblin warrior who wants to kill the Son of Prophecy—Woodworth.
If you want to ring the parade bell in Oxford and play against Woodworth, it can be said that it will happen 100%.
Therefore, if the purpose is to ring the pilgrim bell, you cannot go to Oxford for the time being.
At least, he couldn't go there until Li Ge found a way to break through the layer of protection on Woodworth.
Fortunately, Oxford is not included in the list of cities that need to be visited this time.
Salisbury and Gloucester, Li Ge and Artoria only need to choose one to go there.
"Where do you want to go?"
Li Ge tentatively asked Artoria.
To this, Artoria actually answered very positively.
"If possible, I would rather go to Gloucester." Arturia said with anticipation and distress: "But in that kind of place, a country fairy like me won't be able to buy anything."
Gloucester is a fashion capital, so it is certainly more attractive to curious girls.
But it's really not a good place to go there.
Not because of the reason Arturia mentioned, but for another more important reason.
"The clan leader of the Winged Clan, if I remember correctly, he seems to be the type who has inherited the blood of Yaling more strongly, right?"
Although it is not as atavistic as Woodworth's, the clan leader of the Winged Clan also inherited a relatively strong blood of Yaling, and is a great fairy with troublesome power.
Li Ge didn't know if that power could be effective on him, but since he had already planned to understand the general situation of the elf country Britain before taking action, it would be best not to go there yet.
In this way...
"The only choice is Salisbury."
Ri Ge said so.
Artoria had no objection.
"Salisbury is a very free city, where humans often hang out, unlike other places where they are exploited as slaves."
Arturia made this statement because she took Lige's identity into consideration, right?
In any case, Li Ge is a human being. If he casually walks on the street and has a conflict with a goblin, it will definitely become a very troublesome situation.
Artoria didn't want to just enter the city and watch Li Ge rush into the group of goblins and kill them like she did yesterday.
This was so bad for the heart that a certain country elf said she couldn't bear it.
"Then it's decided."
Unlike Artoria, who has fairy eyes that can see through the truth, Li Ge didn't know how a certain fairy girl was slandering him in her heart, so she made such a decision.
"Are we going to take a break and teleport there again like before? Or are we going to fly there?"
Artoria showed an expression of realization as if she was ready to be carried and hugged.
Anyway, the whole thing about getting into someone's arms in the middle of the night has happened, and now there's nothing to be ashamed of.
A certain fairy girl thought like she was giving up on herself.
But this time, Artoria guessed wrong.
"We don't know our specific location just because we teleport randomly. If we continue teleporting like before, who knows whether we will be teleported to the destination or to the enemy's base camp?"
Li Ge shook his head and spoke like this.
"You can also fly, but that would be too conspicuous, and it is likely to be discovered by the nearby Queen's Army or the Fang Clan who were in Tintagel yesterday."
Therefore, Li Ge decided to find a substitute.
"[Second level monster summoning]."
With the activation of the summoning magic, a magic circle appeared spinning in front of Li Ge.
In the magic circle, a handsome white horse slowly appeared.
It was a horse with eight legs - an eight-legged horse.
In Norse mythology, the eight-legged horse is a mythical beast. It is the war horse ridden by the Nordic god Odin. It is very famous.
The eight-legged horse summoned by Li Ge is just a kind of monster. Like the eight-legged horse in Nordic mythology, it has eight legs. It is larger than the average horse and has excellent muscle strength, endurance and mobility. In the undead In the King's World, it is considered to be the best land beast that humans can tame, and its value is equivalent to more than five ordinary war horses.
The one summoned by Li Ge was a rare breed of eight-legged horses. There was only one white horse among hundreds of them.
"[Creation of high-level props]."
After summoning the white eight-legged horse, Li Ge used creation magic to create a huge carriage.
"alright."
After doing this, Li Ge turned to the dumbfounded Arturia.
"We'll go there in a carriage."
Hearing this, Artoria fell silent.
Why is there such a big gap between people who are both able to use magic?
