It took Regnar three days to reach the military camp where Eileen was, which was actually very fast. After all, there were no fast means of transportation in that era, and Merindl was located in the north of the Hawke Empire. If you ran to the south, it would take at least ten days and a half on normal horseback riding.
But Regner obviously couldn't wait that long. There was no doubt that he took advantage of the portals set up by the Hawke Empire in various places this time. This kind of teleportation gate is a fixed connection between two sites. There are not many places to set up it, and the cost of each teleportation is at least one hundred gold coins. Not only that, because portals are relatively expensive to maintain, sometimes you can’t use them even if you have money.
However, Regner is now the director of the Military Intelligence Department, and with his position, it is very easy for him to obtain such convenience. But even though he had saved more than half of the time by using the portal, Regner still felt that it was too slow.
In the last bit of the journey, Regnar couldn't wait for the horse to run. He simply abandoned the tired horse that was foaming at the mouth, and then used the shadow teleportation and his own running to catch up. This saved him another hour or so.
"Stop! This is an important military camp. No one can enter!" The guard standing at the door quickly took a warning stance when he saw Regna running over.
"I'm from the Military Intelligence Department, and I'm here to look for a priest named Irene who is being protected by you." Regnar did not use force against these guards because of his urgency. After all, Irene was under their protection. They had just survived, so Regna naturally had a good impression of them. He took out his token and handed it to the guard.
"It turns out to be Lord Dark Elegy. I didn't expect you to come here so quickly!" The guard took the token and looked at it before quickly saluting. Although the boy in front of him is younger than himself, the name of Dark Elegy has already resounded throughout the entire Chino continent in the past six months. He has also heard many legends about Regnar. The mere fact that he had sneaked into the enemy's interior and assassinated important enemy officials several times regardless of danger was enough to arouse the respect of the guards.
"How do you know that I am Dark Elegy?" Regnar couldn't help but be stunned. He remembered that he only said that he was from the Military Intelligence Agency, but he did not say his name. How did he guess it
"I told them." A gentle female voice rang out: "I told them that if a young man under twenty years old hurries over and says he is from the Military Intelligence Agency, then that person You are the one.”
Regnar followed the sound and looked over, and then said with some surprise: "Lisanna?"
"Long time no see, Regnar." Lisanna smiled at Regnar. According to her original habit, Lisanna would definitely use "Sir" when addressing Regnar. However, this title aroused the dissatisfaction of her teacher Malolite. Finally, under the repeated emphasis of the Gale Sword Master, Lisanna finally developed the habit of calling Regnar by his first name.
"That's right! You are my apprentice, and Regnar is the apprentice of that damn elf. Why should my apprentice call his apprentice "sir?" Malolite finally said with satisfaction.
"Why are you here?" Regnar asked a little strangely. He remembered that Lisanna followed Alexander back to the front line in the end. Shouldn't she be in the Knights of the Golden Eagle now? Shouldn't she be by Alexander's side? But Regner remembered that the Golden Eagle Knights had gone to the southeast of the empire again, and Lisanna shouldn't appear here.
"Come on, let's talk as we come in and I'll take you to find Irene." Lisanna said with a smile.
"Okay." Regnar nodded.
…
"Did you just go to sword practice?" Regnar couldn't help but guess as he saw Lisanna carrying a long sword on her back and holding one in her hand. Speaking of which, Malloryt really liked his disciple very much. Lisanna's two long swords were given to her by Malloryt before she left.
Both swords are enchanted longswords, one of which is enchanted with "Extreme Sharpness", "Greater Swiftness" and "Savage Tear", and the other is enchanted with "Greater Sturdy", "Deadly Accuracy" and "Higher Stability". Although these enchantments are very common enchantments (they do not come with unique enchantments such as space cutting or black blade curse like Regnar's light swallowing or black blade), but as mentioned before, gathering three people at the same time A high-level enchantment itself is a very rare thing.
Moreover, Lisanna's two swords are made of unusual materials. They use a special metal called "meteoric steel." Its essence should be a composite alchemical metal with very good hardness and ductility, and it seems to have good memory itself. If used to make lightweight weapons, "meteorite steel" is indeed a very good material.
However, although it is a composite alchemical material. However, in order to increase the value of this metal, the alchemists boasted that it was a metal that was attached when the stars in the sky fell. It was a material that did not belong to this world, so it was named "meteoric steel".
But now it seems that the alchemist's boast is not completely useless. If we look at the supply prices of magic guilds around the world, the same volume of "meteorite steel" is five to eight times more expensive than the same volume of gold. Why aren't they equal weights, you ask? That's because the density of this material doesn't seem to be very high, it seems to be only about one-tenth that of iron. If you calculate it this way, then this thing is much more precious than gold!
And because Malolite officially recognized Lisanna as a disciple, this meeting gift was indispensable. Under Regnar's instigation, Malloryt had no choice but to run into the palace and ask Larvin for a weapon or two to give to Lisanna.
And Larvin was obviously very happy to let a holy warrior owe the empire a favor. He took out two pieces of "Meteor Steel" from the royal warehouse without hesitation, and then ordered the best alchemy team of the Palace Mage Association to take charge. Forge enchant them. The result was these two long swords, which were named "High Wind" and "Swift Shadow", which fit Lisanna's two-sword style lightning swordsmanship.
"Yes, the teacher said that martial arts must not be unfamiliar. I have to familiarize my body with the movements of swordsmanship every day. Moreover, the blast and the swift shadow are indeed very good weapons. Sometimes I feel like wielding them It's also a kind of enjoyment." When Lisanna said this, she couldn't help but feel a little funny: "Speaking of which, I would also like to thank you. If it weren't for you, with the careless character of the teacher, I might not have thought of giving me a gift."
"Hey, why did the old man bother me all day long these days? I always have to find something to disgust him." Regnar also smiled and replied. Even now, he would still find it funny when he recalled how Malolite was running around all day in a hurry for the gift. He then asked: "Speaking of which, why are you here?"
"A batch of military supplies from the Knights has not been delivered for a long time. The leader is anxious to use them, so he sent me back to check." Lisanna explained.
"That's right." Regnar nodded. It seemed that Lisanna's status in Alexander's heart had also undergone some subtle changes. In the past, Alexander would probably send Juster to handle this kind of thing, but this time he chose Lisanna. It seems that Alexander, the brat, has finally come to his senses. It’s not in vain that I spent so much effort to bring you together in Melinder!
Thinking of this, Regnar couldn't help but give Lisanna a thumbs up. The expression on his face seemed to say: "Is my assist good?"
But Lisanna didn't seem to understand Regner's meaning at all. She just glanced at Regnar with some confusion, and then continued, "I was dealing with things around here before, and then I heard that something happened at Fortress Costa." , I was worried about Erin, so I went in that direction."
"What?" Regnar couldn't help but be stunned. He hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "So... you rescued Irene?"
"You can say that." Lisanna knew Regnar's character very well, so she naturally wouldn't be polite when she should be. The girl smiled and stretched out her hand: "I saved your baby Irene, what gift should you give me to thank me?"
"..." Regnar became unusually serious. He looked at Lisanna seriously, and then said: "If you really saved Irene, then don't give me any gifts, even if you want my life. , I won’t even frown.”
"Okay, Regnar." Lisanna smiled nonchalantly: "It's not that serious."
"No, you don't understand what this means to me." Regnar shook his head: "If something happens to Irene this time, then I'm afraid I'll really go crazy. So, I'm really very Thank you for saving her. As for the gift..."
Regnar hesitated when he said this. He really didn't know what to repay the girl in front of him. Because he felt like nothing was enough to express his gratitude.
Seeing Regnar in trouble, Lisanna couldn't help but laugh again: "It seems that you are still really nervous Eileen!"
"That's natural." Regna nodded calmly: "Irene is the person who gave me a second life. It can be said that without her, I would not be where I am now. So, do you want What will I do in return? I will do whatever I can, and whatever I can’t do, I will try my best to do it.”
"If that's the case, then I've thought about the repayment I need." Lisanna nodded her lips and said.
"Go ahead." Regnar replied.
"I want you to leave Miss Anne and Sister Ini and be alone with Irene." Lisanna said suddenly with a smile.
