Youxuan Grassland, just like this name, has always been shrouded in a mysterious atmosphere in the hearts of countless people in the western part of the continent. This grassland where the orcs live has always been shrouded in mystery.
After receiving the certification documents from the Kingdom of Zegus, El Cid and others headed towards the Youxuan Grassland non-stop using the crystal stone magic device that could search for the direction of the Star Child. Although the group was not a businessman, they seemed to know nothing about the Youxuan Grassland. As far as we know, the document issued by the Zegus Kingdom was played by Haidee, who was once a royal princess and is now the Queen of the Zegus Kingdom, who personally signed the document. Faced with the problem of this document being stuck at the border, The orcs still allowed the group to go. Although Kalutia initially thought that the border was so empty and she could just find any place to enter, she was told that even if she had proof of documents, if she did not have the seal of the border official, it would be considered illegal and she might be arrested if caught. Being considered a smuggler carries a heavy fine and several years in jail.
After entering Youxuan Grassland, the group of people still chose to hitchhike with a caravan, but Alexis and Selian were present along the way. As a white dragon, Alexis also considered it. The dragon form carries everyone, but restoring the dragon form is too conspicuous, and this is still the sphere of influence of the Holy City and the five supreme gods, so Alexis does not dare to do anything too outrageous here.
The journey with the caravan was relatively peaceful. Even the undead raging in the western part of the continent could not come so far. Everyone got out of the car before arriving at the nearest orc tribe, because they followed the instructions of the magic device. The Star Children are in another direction.
"To be honest~ Rather than saying this is a grassland, it looks a bit like a forest at first glance!" Kaludia said with a sigh while looking at the surrounding scenery after starting the hike.
Youxuan Grassland is indeed endless, but when the traveler looks up, he sees only a little sunlight shining on the ground through the purple leaves. The reason is that there are some lonely big trees growing on the grassland. There are not many of these big trees, almost every other There is only one tree growing per kilometer, but each tree has a trunk hundreds of meters high. It may take hundreds of people to join hands to surround it, and the leaves growing on the big trees are surprisingly purple instead of green. Some of them are purple. Fruits with a lavender halo are hanging heavily on the branches like beacons guiding the way, and the light rendered by the leaves also turns the entire grassland into a lavender full of mysterious atmosphere. In addition, it agrees to be rendered. The purple mist makes Youxuan Grassland more worthy of its name.
This magnificent scene that could only appear in a dream couldn't help but arouse the curiosity of the Saints. Along the way, the five of them were like tourists visiting a certain scenic spot, and they kept exclaiming. These huge trees are reminiscent of The World Tree in Nordic mythology and legends is just one World Tree, but here it is arranged continuously to the other side of the horizon.
"It's like a reappearance of the mythical era."
"And we are now living in this myth. For us as Saints, this is a great honor."
El Cid in Capricorn and Alubioni in Cepheus also sighed repeatedly, but compared to the big child-like Caludia, the two of them were not so out of control, and Algoro and Alubion who were following behind. Luffy, the former was admiring this rare scenery with an excited expression like a child following the group, while the latter followed the group with a calm expression.
Alexis walked at the back with Selian. On the surface, she meant to be responsible for the retardation, but in fact, she wanted to isolate Selian, who had a special status, from the Saints.
After the AI reaches level 6, creatures born in Yalin's command system will automatically learn even if there is no Yalin. For example, Alexis realized that the character of the Saint was too upright through observation in Ulduar City, and judged for this It would definitely not be a good thing for them to learn Celiane's true identity and situation, so even if Yalin did not order Alexis, she knew what to do so that the master would be happy.
Although the white dragon guard is here for the first time, Alexis has information about the Youxuan Grassland in her memory since she was born in the system. Now she is not so curious about the magnificent beauty of the Youxuan Grassland. As a priest of Eilistraee Although it was also the first time for Selian to step into Youxuan Grassland, she had also recognized the beauty of Youxuan Grassland from documents and drawings when she was in the Holy Capital. Although the surrounding scenery at this moment was shocking, when she thought of the people watching over her, It was a white dragon, Selian, and she had no intention of admiring it.
Faced with Alexis's quiet inquiry, even though there was a thousand reluctances in Celian's heart, she could only answer honestly. Under the constraints of the contract, Celian could not even tell lies about the other party leading into a trap. You can't do it unless you have the confidence to withstand the extreme pain caused by the contractual punishment. However, when she thought of the pain that seemed to be carved on her soul with a carving knife, Selian felt chills all over her body, and even her petite body trembled involuntarily.
That kind of pain is indescribable in words. It is by no means the pain that can be caused by just hurting the body. It arises from the soul and breeds from the most painful past events and memories that a person has ever experienced. Through the damage to the soul and body, The pain caused by the double attack is enough to defeat the most determined person in the world!
Selian, who was once the chief priest of the Spider Queen Lolth and was quite talented in torture and interrogation, knew very well that compared with the severe pain rising from her soul, what happened when she fell into the dark age. The torture and torture are as boring as children's nonsense.
"Am I saying that the Star Child is heading in the right direction? Why are we getting further and further off the road?"
After walking for several hours, Kaludia, who finally got tired of seeing the scenery, asked while blowing a whistle made of leaves. Now that he has walked for so long, he is getting farther and farther away from the original main road and can hardly be seen. There was only one person on the road, and there was only a group of reckless wolf cubs staring at her group. As a result, Alexis slightly released her dragon power, and a group of seemingly vicious wolves were so scared that they ran away.
"Keep going in this direction!" Alexis still said the same old saying.
"You've said it five times~" Kaludia lowered her head and complained, but she could only move forward and move forward.
In comparison, Elcid, who is more mature, was discussing with Alexis what to do after seeing the Star Child. When they first left Ulduar City, the five of them were ordered not to disturb the Star Child too much. The Son of Star, as a child who has just come to this world from the stars, the Son of Star who bears the mark of sacrifice will definitely be wary of this world. El Cid and others only need to report back the exact location and movements of the Son of Star. If necessary, you can even protect the Star Children and guard against other forces that covet the Star Children.
However, now everyone's communication magic devices have been destroyed, and all the 'mystery locks' that were previously deployed in a certain city have been wiped out!
Damn┉┉
After learning that Alexis's communicator was also destroyed, and that the reason for its destruction was actually the same as that of her group, Elcid felt that everyone must have been favored by the goddess of misfortune this time.
"┉So what should we do now? We found the Star Child but can't report it to Lord Yalin."
"I'm repairing the magic device, but I'm still missing a few important accessories, especially a few magic engravings that were burned out due to overload. I'll have to go to some magic shops to spend money to customize them," Alexis said. As he walked, he kept playing with two magic devices.
Although the magic tools in the hands of Elcid and others were dismantled and all useful parts were taken out, there were still several important magic engravings. The magic tools of both sides were damaged at the same time. Alexis Although Bailong is extremely powerful in terms of power, he is not a scholar who is good at legal research and magic pattern carving. Naturally, he cannot fix everything just like a plug-in. Faced with complex problems Alexis, the communication magic device, could only repair the parts that she could understand first. As for the magic lines that needed to be replaced, I am afraid that the proud dragon would have to bow to mortals.
Faced with this dilemma, only Celiane in the team was happy to see it.
Time is also something that people can easily ignore when walking in Youxuan Grassland. The sun blocked by the branches and the dark ground make it easy for people to not tell what time it is. When everyone's stomach starts to make a growl in protest, everyone Talent had to stop and prepare dinner.
If you are a survival expert, you can use local materials to prepare a simple dinner for yourself, whether it is grassland or forest. However, Saints are not survival experts, but they do not need to be survival experts. Yalin will consider it when setting off from Ulduar City. In all aspects, the food stored in everyone's space equipment is enough to last them for a month, not to mention that it was replenished in the Kingdom of Zegus.
Soon a steaming dinner accompanied by a campfire was ready. On the cold Youxuan Grassland, hot food was undoubtedly the best thing to drive away the cold.
"I'm talking about El Cid~ The food you make is not delicious. Last time, you said that what I made was unpalatable." Carrying a plate filled with food, Kaludia took a bite. Laughing and criticizing El Cid's cooking skills.
"Eat quickly, we still have to walk some distance after eating."
El Cid pretended not to hear anything and just focused on the food in his hands. As saints, everyone is used to living a frugal life. Compared with the meager meals they had while training in the sanctuary, the dinner now is very sumptuous. At least everyone can see the meat every time. But then again, when did Kaludia become a chatterbox? Although he talked a lot in the past, he didn't chatter incessantly like he does now.
Could it be because after the heart disease was cured, all the previously suppressed personality was relaxed?
Selian, who was sitting next to Alexis, was also quietly eating the food in her hand, but the dark elf girl was looking at the five people traveling together in front of her from time to time. (~^~)
