Chapter 3259 Embarking on a Journey



At present, everything in the border area is stable, so for Ellie, conquering the other six mazes is the focus. She first chose the four mazes in the territory of the Kingdom of Barbagia. After all, for Ellie, in addition to conquering the mazes, investigating the situation here is also a top priority. There is almost no information coming from the border, so to collect intelligence inland, they can only rely on themselves.

Of course, generally speaking, it is basically impossible to cross here and return to the mainland.

The reason is simple. The Tianlong Mountains are steep and long, like a natural wall blocking the road. The only way to reach the mainland is through the underground Dilong Passage. As the only lifeline, this place is of course tightly sealed, almost in a state of being allowed to leave but not enter.

So to put it bluntly, for the people in the kingdom, this place is more like a "exile colony" on the border. No one wants to go to such a place, but once you come here, don't even think about going back.

Of course, this is generally speaking.

Ai Li and her friends are naturally not ordinary people.

"Really, it's nice to see the scenery this way."

Nana, who was sitting behind Ai Li, hugged Ai Li and looked around excitedly. In front of her, Yue curled up in Ai Li's arms, squinting her eyes and leaning on Ai Li's arms as if they were riding a couple's bicycle. On the other side, Xiao Bai still closed his eyes and sat quietly on his sword.

This time when going to the kingdom, in order to avoid being crowded, Ai Li chose three people to travel with her, Xiaobai, Nana and Yue.

Someone still needs to stay in Wanhua Valley, so Kurosaki Meiya and Xiao An cannot leave. Although Lala looks like a fool, if something really happens, we may have to rely on her strength.

Although strictly speaking, Mengmeng is more suitable for reconnaissance missions than the simple Nana, Ai Li was really worried that Mengmeng would see through her identity, and it would be bad for her mental health if she kept her nerves tense, so she finally chose Nana as her travel companion.

As for Yue, needless to say, she goes wherever Ai Li goes.

The reason for choosing Xiaobai was simpler. Xiaobai was the only one among them who had the system and the magical skill of [Identification]. In addition, with the help of the system, her mental training speed was also ridiculously fast. In less than three months, Xiaobai not only changed from a spider to a human form, but also learned to fly with a sword - the others were extremely jealous.

It's just that demon cultivators and human cultivators follow different paths, so the skills Xiaobai has learned are basically of the demon type, such as [Silk Manipulation] which can emit spider silk from fingers, [Evil Eye] which can curse the target by staring at it, and [Toxic Fusion] which can manipulate toxins - well, basically, this is just a spider spirit.

When she comes back, Ai Li will find her a cave called Pansidian Cave and give her the name Pansidian Immortal.

The reason why Xiaobai closed her eyes was not because she couldn't control her eyes. On the contrary, it was also a kind of cultivation. In Buddhism, there is a kind of cultivation called "silent meditation", which is to keep silent and exercise one's mental strength. Xiaobai's cultivation method is similar to "silent meditation", but the reason why she chose to close her eyes is very simple.

This guy is a social phobic.

In short, it's not that Xiaobai doesn't know what other people are thinking, nor does it mean that she doesn't want to respond, but she is too much of a drama inside, which makes her slow to react in front of others. This also makes Xiaobai very distressed, so Ai Li gave her this advice, as long as she closes her eyes and pretends that her eyes are inconvenient, then the chance of communicating with others will be reduced. Anyway, as a demon beast, Xiaobai can "see" everything around her clearly even with her eyes closed, so for her, closing her eyes is not only a kind of practice, but also a way to relax her mind.

At least she could just stay on the sidelines and complain quietly without getting dragged into it and getting into trouble.

Nana was also quite excited about the environment in front of her. After all, this was her first time in such a fantasy world. Although she and Fang Zheng had been to many places in the past, they were basically technological worlds that Nana could understand. As for the magical fantasy world, she had only come into contact with it in games. It was the first time for Nana to come to such a magical world in reality.

Soon, the four of them flew over the Tianlong Mountains, which were almost like a natural chasm, and arrived at the other side. Looking around, there was a dense forest here. Unlike the wilderness that looked like a post-apocalyptic wasteland, this place was more like a paradise full of life - oh, it didn't seem to be the case.

"There seems to be someone over there."

Nana stretched out her hand curiously and pointed downwards. Looking in the direction of her finger, the group saw a carriage parked on the side of the road not far below. But it was not just parked there. On the contrary, a group of ferocious-looking thieves were surrounding the carriage and fighting aggressively with the knights guarding the carriage.

Although the knight tried very hard, two fists were no match for four hands, and soon the knight and servants guarding the carriage were killed by the robbers. Then the robbers came to the carriage with a sneer, opened the door, and stretched out their hands to the people inside.

At the same time, the sword of light fell from the sky.

The unsuspecting robbers were instantly pierced through the body by the lightsabers that fell from the sky. Before they even had the time to figure out what was happening, they fell to the ground with smug smiles on their faces.

Faced with this scene, the people in the carriage seemed stunned. After a moment, a woman dressed like a noble lady holding a baby quietly stuck her head out and looked outside. At this moment, she saw four beautiful girls falling from the sky and landing in front of her.

"Ma'am, you are not hurt, are you?"

Ellie sat on the broom, smiling at the lady in front of her. The lady stared at them blankly, and after a long while, she seemed to react and nodded hurriedly.

"Thank you... Were you the ones who saved me?"

"We just happened to be passing by."

Ellie's smile remained unchanged, but in fact, they were not just passing by by chance. As a prophecy mage, Ellie naturally possessed the ability of Fang Zheng. On the surface, it seemed that they just "happened" to be here, "happened" to encounter a carriage attacked by bandits, and "happened" to save the noblewoman who was almost killed.

But in fact, this was also the result of Ellie's divination using the prophecy spell. She hoped to find a road that would allow the group to enter the Kingdom of Barbagia smoothly, and the prophecy spell pointed in this direction, so Ellie brought the others here.

Sure enough, the "hidden event" was triggered here.

"Anyway, thank you so much!"

Holding the baby tightly in her arms, the lady bowed her head and thanked the girls. However, at this moment, Xiaobai, who was standing at the back, trembled suddenly and took a step back. Noticing Xiaobai's strangeness, Ai Li looked at her curiously, then retracted her gaze and looked at the lady in front of her again.

According to the lady in front of her, she was the wife of a lord and was on her way home. Unexpectedly, she was attacked by thieves and even her trusted servants were killed by thieves. If it weren't for the girls' rescue, they would probably have died - the next step was to ask the girls to escort her and her children home, and to express her gratitude to them.

The girls had no objection to the lady's invitation. Yue was completely willing to accept whatever decision Ai Li made. Nana also liked this cute baby very much. Xiaobai didn't say anything for some reason, so the group decided to escort the lady and the child home.

Ai Li was responsible for driving the carriage, Xiao Bai sat beside her, Yue sat in Ai Li's arms, and Nana accompanied the lady and the child in the carriage. As for their origins, Ai Li had already told Nana that they were adventurers traveling around. Although Nana was simple, she was not stupid and naturally knew how to conceal her identity.

On the other side...

"What happened to you just now? Xiaobai?"

Ellie drove the carriage along the road while asking through telepathy. Hearing Ellie's question, Xiaobai silently took out a piece of paper and handed it to Ellie. Ellie took a look at the paper and saw a few lines of information written on it.

【Human Vampire Lv1】

[Name: Sophia Galen (Akiko Negishi)]

...What kind of information is this?

Looking at the information in front of her, Ellie was also stunned. She didn't even look at the ability values ​​and skills behind it. In fact, this race alone made Ellie confused.

How is it possible to be both human and a vampire?

By the way, the name behind it is obviously not from this world, but Xiaobai's reaction seems to be different from before. You know, in Wanhua Valley, she also identified many time travelers, but why did Xiaobai seem a little strange when facing this reincarnated person?

Soon, Xiaobai also gave an answer based on telepathy.

[I have some impression of this name. I think she might be my classmate in my previous life...]

Wow, no wonder, it turns out you are not the only one who came here through time.

"Do you know each other?"

[I only remember this name. I am not very familiar with her. Although she is a classmate in my previous life, I don’t have any impression of her. I just remember her name...]

At this point, Xiaobai also became excited.

[Who told me that I was a marginal person in my previous life? I don’t know anyone in the class, and they probably won’t remember me. So what’s up with this race? It’s both human and vampire, and she has so many initial skills! She has eight! I only had six when I was born! And, she was reincarnated into the lord’s house, right? Does that mean she’s a noble lady now? Why am I just a spider born under a big maze…]

"Just ask Yue and you'll know."

Listening to Xiaobai's complaints transmitted through telepathy, Ai Li silently rolled her eyes, then looked at Yue and told her the results of Xiaobai's identification.

"You mean, that kid is a vampire?"

Yue was also quite surprised to hear what Ai Li said.

"But the vampire clan seems to have died out a long time ago."

According to the information obtained from the Volunteer Army, the vampire clan became extinct three hundred years ago. So what about this vampire who suddenly appeared?

Yue didn't know about this either. She told Ai Li that although their clan was called vampires, it was simply because they needed to suck blood to maintain life and replenish magic power. They didn't have the ability to transform others into vampires. If this baby was really a vampire, then his parents or previous generations had the blood of vampires, or he had a reversion to his ancestors like Yue did and became a vampire...

But according to Xiaobai's identification just now, the lady was just an ordinary human. If the father was a vampire, it would be fine, but if he was human... then once it was discovered in the future that the baby had vampire blood, it might become another family ethics drama of morality and the rule of law.

But this is none of Ellie's business.

Now Ellie only hopes to send the noble lady and her child back to the territory safely, and then use this opportunity to ask her husband, the lord, to help them get identification documents and the like, so that they can carry out their plans smoothly in the kingdom.

Hope everything goes well.
