Chapter 415: Rand gets on the carriage, Vanilla meets the teacher

The road from the royal city back to Crescent Moon Territory is not particularly long.

But it still takes about a month.

In addition to the underdeveloped transportation level, the King's Road has also fallen into disrepair.

However, after Rand had walked about halfway, the road conditions improved a little.

It seems to be maintained.

The maintenance is not heavy, but there are signs of maintenance.

After walking for a while, Rand discovered that it was the caravans on the roadside and the nobles' army who were helping to maintain the road.

Rand asked someone to ask the caravan on the roadside.

The leader of the caravan looked at the gleaming silver weapons and armor of the Rand army with some awe.

And Rand's sword, shield, and wheat flag.

Rand was given an answer. The nearby nobles and merchants all wanted to go to the holiday villa to import some goods and then sell them. The competition on the Specialty Road was relatively fierce, so some merchants planned to open up some trade routes on the King's Road.

Along this road, there are also many nobles who are interested in the goods of the holiday villa.

Rand got off the horse with peace of mind and got into the carriage.

This way you can reach inside Ellie, or Olenna, or Elsa's clothes.

Olena's figure has not changed much in the past few years.

Elsa and Ellie have grown a little.

But not much.

There is a slight change in feel, but not significant.

Even though Elsa and Olenna are already an old married couple with Rand, they are still reluctant to appear at the same time.

On the contrary, as the only Duchess in name only, Ellie didn't care much.

Now the top management of the hideout is considering assigning some maids to Rand.

At first they were very opposed to assigning a maid to Rand, because they were worried that Rand would be dazzled by some wild woman on the street.

But now I am not worried anymore, for one reason, the appearance of the top leaders in the den is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people.

It took a long time for the top brass to realize that they were really good-looking.

Also, they don't have to worry about losing Rand's favor to ordinary maids.

Now, as a noble who does not have the strength of a Grand Duke but has the title of Grand Duke, Rand is already very prominent, at least in the Frost Moon Kingdom.

Naturally, there are many noble ladies, or even lower-class ordinary women, who want to win Rand's favor.

It is quite common for a great duke to have several lovers.

But even if Rand fell in love with a girl from outside, it would be almost impossible for it to have any impact on the status of the top management in the hideout.

To use the proverb of Rand's previous life:

"Why are all the generals' wives so old and ugly? I would definitely be an excellent general's wife."

"If you want to be a general's wife, you must first marry a lieutenant and live with him on the border, in the forest, in the desert for 20 years."

Although there is no such proverb in this world, the principle is still easy to understand.

Most of these high-ranking officials in the den appeared by Rand's side when he was at his lowest point, and they have a deep emotional foundation with Rand.

Now Rand is the Grand Duke.

It's time to equip Rand with some servants.

…

The elven elder, riding in a centaur carriage, arrived at the Crescent Territory with two assistants.

Several people got off the carriage.

The new moon collar has a different atmosphere.

The Crescent Territory is already quite close to the core hinterland resort of the Duke of Moon Phase Land.

The guards here are stricter, but it is also much more prosperous.

There are many villages on the land of Crescent Territory.

The place where the elf elder arrived was the largest village.

In fact, it already looks a bit like a walled city.

The agriculture in Crescent Territory is well developed, and there are important iron mines.

Due to the influence of the occasional undead, the guarding here is relatively stricter.

The elf elder got off the carriage at Xinyue's command.

In fact, it is possible to go directly to the holiday villa, but the elf elder is prepared to follow the advice and go to Xinyue Territory first.

Not only can you better understand the culture here, but you can also see more of the terrain, which will facilitate your escape later.

That being said, if you want to escape, you must pay attention to your route.

An ordinary centaur does not run faster than an ordinary horse, but a centaur is generally faster than a horse ridden by a knight.

It would be bad if we were blocked by a large number of Centaurs while escaping.

…

Vanilla was waiting in the administrative hall of the village at this time.

She spent most of her time in Crescent Territory handling church school affairs.

I have been to Xinyueling a few times, but I am not very familiar with this place.

It's not reasonable to let her come here to find someone.

She didn't know where to find Bishop Kahn in Crescent Territory.

But Vanilla trusts Administrator Lysa very much.

Although Administrator Lysa always looks arrogant and condescending, which is completely different from the easy-going Rand, Administrator Lysa's abilities are still unanimously recognized by everyone in the hideout.

Administrator Lisa certainly wouldn't do anything without a purpose.

So after arriving at Crescent Territory, Vanilla went to inform Taran.

Taran has been running Crescent Territory.

Taran is also partially responsible for the affairs of Full Moon Territory and Crescent Moon Harbor.

After learning that Vanilla came here to see Bishop Kahn, Taran looked a little strange.

After letting Vanilla wait in the administrative hall for a while, Taran set off.

About half a day later, Taran brought the sleepy Bishop Kahn to the administrative hall.

Bishop Kahn looked like he hadn't slept well and was trying to catch up on some sleep.

But there is no scent of powder.

This time he did come here to consume at first, but after hearing that the number of undead in the wild had increased, he decisively crawled out of his warm bed and went out to check with the local armed forces.

Now Bishop Kahn can skillfully command Tauren, Naga, or Centaur.

There are indeed a lot more undead recently, and I guess it may be due to some influence of the invasion of the undead army from the south.

Overall the situation was not very serious, but Bishop Kahn still worked overtime and did a lot of work.

Strengthen patrols and warn villagers and caravans to be careful.

So as not to be harmed by the undead.

However, the two kingdoms in the south act as a barrier to block the undead for the Dukedom of the Moon. In the short term, there is no need to worry too much about the influence of the undead.

As for more strategies, we will have to wait for Duke Rand to decide.

When he met Bishop Kahn, Vanilla told him that the followers of the Torch Church were looking for him.

Bishop Kahn said he understood and would go back to Crescent Moon Territory to check the situation.

Unfortunately, I can’t make up for the sleep I’ve gotten.

Vanilla did not ask Bishop Kahn what he was doing. An old bishop as humble, serious and loving as Bishop Kahn must be busy with important matters here.

Vanilla loves and admires Bishop Kahn very much.

"Then let's go back together." Vanilla asked.

"Yes." Bishop Kahn gave Taran some tips on how to deal with the undead, and then looked at Vanilla. "Then let's set off now without further delay."

…

The elf elder entered the Crescent Territory Castle, and was very interested in the many materials that were rarely seen in other places.

This should be considered the core territory of Duke Rand of the Moon Phase.

It is completely different from the outside world.

There are many things here that interest the elven elder, but he is still very clear about the goal this time.

Save his student, the blood of the elven royal family, Vanilla.

Then the most important thing is to understand the Duke of Moon's military deployment.

An ordinary village basically only has villagers. The villagers may pick up pitchforks to fight, but they can't even be called militia.

But the roads will be patrolled by troops.

There will be garrisons in the villages. Although not numerous, their morale is very high, and their weapons and equipment are far superior to those of ordinary conscripts.

It might even be better equipped than many mercenary gangs.

And there will be minotaurs and centaurs.

Both of these monsters are very difficult to deal with.

Especially the Centaurs, which move very fast.

And Duke Rand of the Moon Phase obviously does not lack human cavalry.

After wandering around the city for a while, the elf elder left Crescent Territory.

The next step is to go to Crescent Moon Territory.

He had already found out that Vanilla was in Crescent Moon Territory, and the deployment there was of top priority.

Although Vanilla really seems to be an important figure in that church school.

But the elf elder also found out that Vanilla was indeed the elf slave girl of the Grand Duke of the Moon.

There are no truly free elves in the Dukedom of the Moon.

However, what relieved the elf elder was that Vanilla did not seem to be pregnant. This was really good news.

The elven elder planned to walk the road to Crescent Territory by himself, so he did not wait for the Centaur carriage.

And just a moment after leaving the city.

An elf appeared in the sight of the elf elder.

Wear a velvet cotton robe.

Hair as blue as emerald, eyes as blue as the sky.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The pointed ears are wrapped in the hat, but you can still see that they are different from human ears.

It's vanilla.

His students.

The old elf elder was a little excited.

I actually met him here, instead of in Crescent Moon Territory where the security must be stricter.

And Vanilla also recognized the elf elder at this time.

Her teacher.

Vanilla learned a lot from this wise elf elder.

Some of this knowledge was proven to be wrong or outdated, but there was still a lot of knowledge that helped her a lot in her teaching and management work in the church school.

"Vanilla." The elf elder clenched his staff and looked at the man and horse behind Vanilla.

A human bishop of the Torch Church, dressed simply and without much aura, and a Centaur that was clearly stronger than the average Centaur.

I guess it won't be very weak.

But it won’t be very strong.

"Teacher." Vanilla was stunned.

Show a shocked expression.

She did write a letter inviting her teacher to come to the church school to work.

However, Vanilla is also well aware of the huge prejudice between elves and humans.

Vanilla didn't have much hope that her teacher would really come.

But it actually came.

He also brought two elves who seemed to be assistants.

Suddenly, we have more people! Wouldn't it be much easier for us to start the new school year? Vanilla was delighted.

"You're here!" Vanilla said.

Seeing Vanilla's joyful expression, the elf elder was certain that Vanilla was very eager to be saved.

The elven elder glanced at the human bishop and strong centaur behind Vanilla again.

He signaled the two assistants beside him to take action.

And said: "Vanilla, come to me, I will take you away."

Vanilla showed a surprised expression.

So you're not here to work?

But she didn't want to leave...

Bishop Kahn was also stunned. Only then did he realize that this scholar with two assistants was an elf, and his two assistants were obviously also elves.

Bishop Kahn looked at Vanilla and asked for her opinion.

Vanilla covered her face and said, "Show mercy."

The centaur, Bishop Kahn, the elven elder and his two assistants all nodded after hearing this.

Two senior elven rangers have already rushed to the Centaur and Bishop Kahn.

The elven elder's spells were also immediately prepared.

It's snowing now.

Snow often impedes movement.

However, this place is not far from the walled city, so there is no snow on the road.

However, the howling cold wind on a snowy day will still limit your vision and hearing.

The centaurs pulling the carts will all be equipped with some weapons. While pulling the carts, they are also responsible for protecting the passengers.

On the roadside of the Duke of Moon Phase's territory, you can occasionally see magical beasts or monsters shot to death.

To be honest, there are many adventurers who don't understand why such a monster with terrifying combat power is willing to pull a cart.

It is still unknown how Grand Duke Lander tamed the centaurs.

And this superior centaur who came specifically to protect Vanilla prepared more.

He was wearing armor, and the horse's body was also covered with horse clothes.

He drew a blade halberd from his back and used the back of the blade halberd to slash at the two elven rangers who were rushing towards him from the left and right.

The Elf Ranger is agile and light, armed with a longbow and a short sword.

They are known for their accurate archery and flexible melee skills, and some elves also use whips as medium-range weapons.

Some elven rangers may have tamed familiars, such as wolves or eagles, to assist in attack or reconnaissance, but they were not brought along this time.

The elven ranger was fast, but the strong centaur's bladed halberd swung faster.

Fortunately, he dodged in time and was not hit.

If you get hit, even by the back of the knife, you will lose your combat effectiveness.

After forcing back the two elven rangers, the strong centaur began to charge towards the elven elder who was about to cast a spell.

The sound of the Centaur warriors' iron hooves came from far away like thunder, shaking the earth.

The snowflakes are as light as feathers.

The first spell the elven elder casts is slowness.

The magic gathered around the centaur, slowing him down.

The next spell is to induce plant growth.

The elven elder is not a druid, but he still knows some basic plant spells.

Countless plants broke out of the ground and grew wildly around Bishop Kahn.

But it was of no use. The plants around Bishop Kahn turned to ashes in an instant.

Like snowflakes, they floated away from Bishop Kahn along with the cold wind.

Bishop Kahn opened the holy book in his hand.

This scripture is the Crimson Book, and it is also a powerful magical weapon that has the potential to grow into a divine weapon.

And as Bishop Kahn opened the scriptures.

The snowstorm stopped.

All the snowflakes turned into water vapor.

Winter turned into summer.

The temperature is still gradually rising.

Bishop Kahn was thinking about how to show mercy.

On the other side, the elf elder frowned.

This centaur is ferocious as hell.

It will soon break free from the slow spell. How was this centaur tamed?

That human bishop also looks very difficult to deal with.

I guess at the very least he is a senior professional.

But what he wants to do is not to defeat these two, he is here to save people.

Just grab the vanilla and run.

The elf elder stretched his muscles.

Be prepared to get close to the herbs.

After reaching the highest level, the physical enhancement obtained by the mage is not as good as that of the warrior.

But there are also enhancements.

Moreover, he was an active type when he was young, and he could still run even when he was older.

In fact, it is not impossible to use high-powered spells.

But since Vanilla said to show mercy, the elf elder was still willing to accept the advice.

If someone were killed, it would cause the anger of Grand Duke Lander.

In short, he planned to cast a slow spell on Bishop Kahn and then rescue him.
