Chapter 769: Lanqi Returns to Little Rock

When the night was still dark, Lan Qi drove Sigre and Talia in a deer cart and finally saw the independent city-state called "Gretel Castle".

This city is also the first orc city-state he and Sigre have ever visited, Little Rock.

"I haven't been here for a long time. It doesn't look like it has changed that much from before."

Lan Qi has been working as a driver in the Land of Eternal Night for several hours, and now he can almost rest.

"Indeed, after the war and reconstruction, it seems to have restored its original appearance as much as possible."

Sigre also put her hands on the back of the front seat and looked at Little Rock ahead.

"very hungry."

Thalia touched her belly and said.

After a long journey, when she saw the outline of the city-state, she knew that the long-awaited breakfast time was coming.

"Little Rock's specialty products are quite good. After we rest here for a long time, we can buy some more snacks to eat on the road."

Sigre immediately sat back and said to Thalia,

"And we have a very good relationship with the orc lord Argom of Little Rock City. The ursine lord likes Rocky. When he sees him, he wants to shout 'Friend!' and give him a big hug. If If he finds out, he will definitely give us a bunch of specialties.”

Although she never thought that Kaliela would one day be able to show off directly, Kaliela in a bad state was also very cute, just like a small animal waiting to be fed.

"Repair the friendship formed by the statues. If you respect their beliefs and help them with all your strength, they will respond to you accordingly. This is the case with the orc city-states in the Land of Eternal Night."

Ranch acknowledged from the front row.

The Polante Empire, which was in deep trouble at that time, was facing the pressure of the Horning Empire's army, and it was in great need to form an alliance with the Demon Realm. At the same time, the several orc city-states on the road to the Land of Eternal Night were also particularly important as transportation fortresses.

So in order to show the sincerity of the royal family of the Paulante Empire, Lanqi worked as a royal craftsman to repair the most cherished statues of the orcs for several orc city-states, and gained the friendship of the orcs with his sincerity.

Lord Argom is the leader of the Ursine tribe, the first orc city-state.

I don’t know what happened to this simple lord after twelve years.

"It's exciting."

Thalia's eyes immediately brightened, and she looked at Little Rock with expectant eyes.

Darkness enveloped the city-state, with only the afterglow and lights lighting the way forward.

Under the towering city gate, the white snow is spread all over the ground, reflecting the faint light.

A few minutes later, they successfully passed through the entrance gate of Little Rock with their certificates.

You can see the inn just after entering the city.

For a small fee, it can provide a resting place for the horses of visitors to the city during their journey.

Sigre jumped down from the back row skillfully and handed the snow deer and sled to the St. Pauline Theocracy personnel at the inn.

These seemingly new caregivers quickly fed and groomed the Styx deer to ensure that they were well taken care of tonight.

"It's already seven o'clock in the morning, but it's still the same as twelve o'clock at night. Daytime is really a luxury in the land of eternal night."

Lan Qi stepped off the sled, took out his pocket watch from his pocket, took a look at it and sighed.

In Little Rock, there are very few daylight hours even in the summer, let alone winter.

This is also the reason why this snowfield is called the land of eternal night.

Previously, he went to the northernmost city of Bandera in the Protos Empire in the Northern Continent. If he went further north, he would enter a similar area known as "Eternal Night" by the world.

Asksan comes from "Eternal Night".

If there was a legendary seal master in this era who was stationed in the Land of Eternal Night, then probably no vampire would dare to set foot on the snowfield.

It's nostalgic.

"Lao Sang seems to be really good at defeating the Blood Tribe. If the Blood Tribe Marquis is one on one, he might be beaten by Lao Sang alone."

Thalia replied to Lan Qi in her heart.

Since she understood what Lao Sang was, she no longer had to listen to Lan Qi's riddles every time and could join in his conversations.

"Who are you thinking about?"

Sigre seemed to have discovered that Lan Qi was thinking about someone, but she couldn't guess who Lan Qi was thinking about.

She was puzzled.

This was the first time that she couldn't understand the Holy Son's thoughts.

His mind seemed a little confused.

"A man who has brought me so much joy."

Lan Qi couldn't hide his smile and replied.

"..."

Sigre still couldn't guess.

I haven't looked into this issue in detail.

It must be someone she didn't know, so she couldn't guess it, and it wasn't that the Holy Son was seriously ill.

The Holy Son had never been like this before when he was in the Northern Continent. He was always thinking about his teacher in the Southern Continent.

One day she will understand the answer.

"Look at the best, you can easily fall asleep at any time in the land of eternal night, and you won't be easily woken up by the sun. You can have a good rest later. It's been a hard drive all the way."

Sigre had already started moving his luggage one step ahead of Lanqi, as if it was muscle memory, and returned to the previous topic.

Since Lan Qi didn't bring so many tools for repairing the statue this time, the luggage was no longer as heavy as last time. Including her own luggage, there were a total of two boxes, while Kaliela only brought a very light one. The small suitcase contained probably only a few changes of personal clothing.

"You don't have to carry them all. Last time when you were a child, you moved four big boxes by yourself. I felt embarrassed."

Lan Qi didn't leave Sigre busy alone and took the box from her hand.

One of the reasons why Secretary Elm recommended Sigre to him was that she had super strength and stamina, and could almost ignore the poor visibility at night and snowy weather, and deliver her employer to the destination as quickly as possible.

If she serves as the driver, the two of them can basically stay in an orc city-state every day, a total of six, and they can successfully reach the Demon Realm on the seventh day.

Now at the sixth level, Lan Qi found that after watching and learning from Sigre last time, he could also be a coachman and cover a city in a day.

"Actually, I think it's good. Then others can see at a glance that we are an employer and a coachman, not a father and daughter."

Sigre stopped with a smile and lectured Lan Qi.

"Calliera, come this way, we will take the car to the hotel."

She turned back and waved to the gray-haired witch.

In the dream, Sigre was not happy with Rocky when she first came to Little Rock. Unfortunately, the price offered by the other party was too high. As long as the deal was completed, it would be enough for the church orphanage to have no worries for a whole year, even if the war broke out. , nuns can also lead the children to escape to neighboring countries without becoming refugees.

Looking back now, I feel that the memory of that dream is particularly beautiful.

When I came back to Little Rock, my mood was different.

"Okay, Sigre, go buy some ready-made dishes later. After you two finish eating, go to sleep. I will prepare dinner when you wake up."

As the person who rested the longest on the road, Talia is now in good condition, and the two of them didn't get much rest along the way. It's time for them to replenish their energy.

Later, let Sigre buy some ready-made special delicacies from Great Stone Castle. They will be able to start eating soon. When Lanqi and Sigre wake up, she will also make a more balanced meal. You can also have another nutritious dinner before departure.

"Hey, Kaliela can also cook?"

Sigre heard Lan Qi say that the little black cat was about to be optimized on the road, but didn't take it seriously.

What he never expected was that the person holding the spoon turned out to be Kaliela.

"Of course, let me take care of your diet during the next period of time."

Thalia nodded.

"What am I dreaming about...Calliera cooking for me every day?"

Sigre covered her cheeks in disbelief, looked at the sky and muttered to herself.

She felt more and more that Calliera had become what she had imagined.

She is completely a beautiful woman from the great demon race who is a good wife and mother!

"..."

Thalia read Sigre's mind.

Why are they all words of praise?

She had read Lan Qi's thoughts so much that she subconsciously felt that other people might be thinking something rude.

I didn't expect that there would be such a reverse Lan Qi person in this world.

"I'll cook for you. I'll cook for you every day these days."

Thalia looked at the treasure girl Sigre in front of her with emotion and promised.

"I'm so looking forward to it. I really want to taste what your cooking is like. The great demon will cook for me."

Sigre agreed immediately.

Such a gorgeous, sensible and touching woman, strong, dignified and gentle, has a virtuous side that is unknown to everyone, and she also makes cute moves from time to time. I really like her more and more.

"It's not that...it's really not that..."

Thalia lowered her head and spoke in a weak voice.

She didn't dare to read Sigre's mind anymore. If Sigre continued to praise her, she would blush a little.

Hyperion always praises her, but Hyperion is more reserved and not as violent as Sigre.

This kid is so straightforward!

"There aren't even any vampires on the road this time. It's really comfortable. I'll definitely be able to have a good sleep later."

Sigre sighed.

"I remember that such a young child could analyze the war situation clearly at that time. I guessed that the Vampires might first begin to infiltrate the Kingdom of Fuklo and the Kingdom of Edith on the east and west sides of the Polante Empire. As long as they passed through these two kingdoms, they would But when I arrived at the snowfield, I felt that she was no ordinary little genius, but could be a commander-in-chief."

Lan Qi used the palm of his hand to indicate the height of eleven-year-old Sigre and reminisced with the woman with light hair and purple eyes beside him.

"What are you talking about? Why can't I understand you?"

Thalia complained softly, feeling left out.

"Ah, what I just talked about was when Rocky and I first met in the Paulant Empire."

Sigre briefly explained to the gray-haired witch.

The three of them chatted while waiting for the vehicle to receive visitors to the city.

She looked at Lan Qi again.

"Because I know that the enemy is not only the Huoning Empire but the blood race, it is easy to deduce the intentions of the blood race behind the Huoning Empire. At that time, you didn't know that I had wolf blood, but as a descendant of the wolf tribe's holy land, the Moon Temple The orphan of the wolf clan who escaped is very aware of the cruelty of the vampire clan and the power that covers the sky with one hand. "

Sigre replied.

Many of the prime minister's political opponents before the war began twelve years ago did not believe that the vampires were the leader, but were more convinced that the Horning Empire was the leader of the war.

"And it stands to reason that I don't want to be the commander-in-chief. If you must be the commander-in-chief, give me your pope. Maybe I will be interested. This is the position worthy of me."

Sigre continued to talk to Lan Qi.

"You can take it if you want. When I return to the Theocracy of Saint Paulante, I will give up my position to you."

Lan Qi spread his hands casually.

"You'll give it to me if I want it?"

Sigre asked in surprise as if she had discovered something interesting.

After the Holy Son regarded her as Sigre, he seemed to think that this was the last time he would see her, so he would be especially doting on her.

"As long as it doesn't violate the principles, try to be satisfied."

Lanqi answered calmly.

Anyway, he could only accompany Siegler in this shadow world for twenty-one days, and he hoped to make Siegler happy as much as possible.

It stands to reason that the position of Pope Saint Polante could not be given away so frivolously as if he had promised a child, but this time the shadow world was incredibly comfortable, and Lanqi gradually adapted to this vacation mentality.

"Wolf tribe...?"

Talia murmured beside her as if she had discovered a keyword.

She had just heard this word in the real world not long ago.

"Siegler, are you a wolf tribe?"

She stared at Siegler and asked.

"Yes, even Rocky didn't know that I was a wolf tribe before. Later, on the seventh day of the journey, when I was about to reach the border of the demon world, I was intercepted by the blood tribe earl and found out that I was a little wolf girl, woooo."

Siegler deliberately raised her hands with a ferocious look, pretending to be a wolf that would eat people, and answered Lanqi and Talia.

"Ah..."

Talia stared at Siegler for a long time, looked away and pursed her lips.

It would be great if Siegler could be brought back to the real world.

That way, her sister Ifatia could be saved.

When Hyperion knew that it was her favorite Siegler who saved her mother Ifatia, she would be even more delighted and would cling to her half-sister and not want to let go.

Unfortunately, the more she thought about it, the more Talia realized that the only regret of this Shadow World was that she could not continue to get along with Siegler.

When the Shadow World of 21 days ended, she would also be separated from this perfect girl.

"Kaliela, why do you look a little lost?"

Siegler stared at the gray-haired witch and asked her puzzledly.

"It's all those damned vampires who destroyed the Moon Temple. If it weren't for them, if it weren't for them..."

The more Talia thought about it, the more she hated it.

Her sister would be seriously injured, the wolf tribe would be extinct in the real world, and Siegler would have a miserable childhood, all thanks to those vampires.

"Oh, now is a peaceful time, it's not appropriate to say such words that destroy the harmony of the world."

Siegler made a gesture to silence.

But she was still very grateful that Kaliela was always willing to share the same hatred with her.

In the past, those nightmares about the blood race never stopped, but they have not appeared recently.

According to the current international conventions and situation, it is not good to say such inflammatory words on the eve of the fourth anniversary of the peaceful revival of Seville. She had been told about it as a grassroots staff member in the church in the afternoon.

"It's okay, you don't have to have nightmares about the blood race anymore. I will protect you. Even if there are blood races, I will arrange them clearly."

Talia said coolly, flicking her hair.

She is the strongest.

"Kaliela, my demon mother!"

Sieglei didn't believe it when she heard this, and then happily hugged the gray-haired witch.

It is indeed too reassuring to have Kaliela, a ninth-level, here.

Moreover, the confidence and arrogance of the strongest demon in Kaliela has never changed. Even though Sigrid now has an inexplicable illusion that Kaliela has become weaker, she still has no doubt about how strong Kaliela will be once she really gets serious.

"Oh, how can you call me like that..."

Talia looked embarrassed, but she couldn't resist Siegler's cute attack. She could only raise her hand with a slightly red cheek and touch Siegler's head.

Huparian hasn't called her mother for so long, and Siegler called her directly after just a while, making Talia feel that the world is worth it.

"By the way, do you feel that this city-state is a little different..."

Lanqi has been staring at the street since just now, muttering to himself.

"It must be."

Talia replied.

This is considered the suburbs of this small stone city. Even if there are changes, it is not easy to see, not to mention that after twelve years, there are changes.

"Are you talking about a little sense of disobedience?"

Siegler quickly understood what Lanqi meant.

Normal changes cannot be called disharmony.

On the contrary, changes that are a bit weird can be called disharmony.

"Yes, there is an indescribable sense of disharmony, but I can't explain in detail why the Little Rock I saw is different from before."

Lan Qi agreed.

"Meow..."

The cat boss poked his head out from the ground and looked.

The more he heard Lan Qi say this, the more panicked he felt.

Lan Qi's observation and intuition are rarely wrong.

The last time he came to Little Rock with Lan Qi and Siglei.

But so far, he can't see what makes Lan Qi feel disharmony.

Chat for a while.

Lan Qi, Siglei and Talia waited for the car in the city. The human driver got off the car to carry their luggage to the car and began to take them to visit the brand new Little Rock.

"Master, go to the Snow Bear Hotel."

Lan Qi said to the driver.

"No problem."

The human driver smiled and replied to the three passengers, and then started to set off.

The scenery outside the window began to pass by.

The appearance of the bustling downtown area of ​​Little Rock gradually became clear under the street lights.

Talia looked at the buildings in the city-state, most of which were built of hard stone and specially treated wood. The structure was solid and could withstand the invasion of severe cold and blizzards.

She was looking forward to the food in Little Rock.

To be honest, it was her first time to see a movie world with a tourism theme.

She was even given two caring tour guides, one who knew the way and drove, and the other who kept her warm.

How could there be so many good things in the world.
