Chapter 554: Sigley's Appreciation of Lanqi
Deep in the land of eternal night, there is Little Night City.
Lanci assisted Sigler in finishing the letter.
Now they have just left the hotel and are preparing to mail the letter in Little Night City and continue their journey.
As the two walked out of the hotel lobby, the brief daylight in the sky had faded away, leaving only the endless darkness that once again enveloped the city-state.
The street lamps emitted a soft yellow light, reflecting on the wet sidewalk, leaving spots of light and shadows of the snow.
The cold wind brought a slight chill, blowing through Sigra's slightly messy hair under her beret. She held tightly in her hand the letter she had just written.
This was the most satisfying letter she had ever written.
“It turns out that learning to write is not bad.”
She looked up at Lanqi and had this thought for the first time.
"Yeah."
Lanqi smiled and looked at her and responded.
"If you were to ask someone like you to teach me something, it would definitely be very expensive."
Sieglie said again.
She now believed what the secretary told her before she left.
The true identity of this employer must be quite noble in the Polant Empire.
If they hadn't met each other because of this business, he would never have condescended to teach a wild child like her knowledge.
"It has always been free. At your age, you are in the compulsory education stage. I have the responsibility to answer your questions and help you establish a correct outlook on life and values, etc."
Lanqi looked directly into Sigler's eyes and said with certainty,
"It would be great if there were no war, so I wouldn't have to run around all the time. Going to church and teaching children to read and paint is not a bad life for me."
“…”
After hearing this, Sieglie stopped looking at Lanqi and remained silent for a long time.
The two of them walked through the streets of Little Night Town, passing by brightly lit shops and benches under pale yellow street lamps, with occasional low music coming from the tavern.
"It would be nice if the Polant Empire had more people like you."
She looked ahead at the road and said.
"Meow."
The cat boss curled up in Lanqi's arms and looked up at Lanqi.
It found that in the stable and prosperous southern continent, Lanqi did not need to use his talents, but in the turmoil in the northern continent, Lanqi's talents were finally able to be used.
If it is such a devastating world as the one in the movie world, would it be true that people like Ranchi are really needed the most...
"Don't worry, I will make sure there are more and more people like me in the Polant Empire."
Lanqi smiled naturally and replied.
"I hope so."
Sigley said.
Cat Boss: “……?”
It looked back and forth at Lanqi and Sigray.
If an idealist said this, it would be normal way of coaxing a child.
But if the Evil God Matrix said this, it would be difficult for Boss Cat to analyze its meaning.
The two chatted, and soon they arrived at the place where the city-state could send letters, a stone building with traces of history.
Lanqi waited for Sigley for a while, and she ran to the counter to fill out the shipping form.
Afterwards, the two of them walked towards the post station in Xiaoye City.
After retrieving the Snowfield Dark Deer and their mount, they can embark on their final journey to the Land of Eternal Night.
…
Midnight on the snowy plains of the Land of Eternal Night has always been known as the Snow Burial Ground.
In ancient legends, if one wants to become a king, one must pass through such a road covered with snow and thorns.
This is an experience and also a test.
"The throne is covered with thorns and snow. If you want to tame it, you will be entangled by vines and buried by snow."
Lanqi recited to Sieglie a poem about military exploits that he had heard from somewhere in the real world.
“I’ve never heard of it.”
Sigley always felt that she knew too little.
"Well, you'll probably hear it much later."
Lanqi thought about it and realized that this was actually a military poem about a certain ancient hero in the present era. Perhaps in the era of this shadow world, the hero did not have time to become famous.
Perhaps more than ten hours had passed since they set out from Xiaoye City.
In short, it took a long time.
It was so difficult for Lanqi and Siglei to tell how long it would take before they could see the border of the demon world.
In the silence of the night, the moonlight seemed to retreat quietly, and every second became slow and long.
The snowfield hundreds of kilometers outside Xiaoye City was swallowed up by the night, with heavy snow falling. These ice crystals seemed to be scattered by invisible giant hands. Each piece was bitterly cold, dancing in the wind, and finally sinking into the snow, forming a gray world.
The Hades are strong and agile, and their horns gleam faintly in the moonlight, like falling stars in the night sky.
"It should be soon."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Sieglie looked off into the distance and said while holding the reins tightly.
According to the plan, they will be able to see the demon world at dawn.
In the dark night, the sled pulled by the snowfield deer left a dim track on the snow.
At the front of the sled, the short Sigler was trying hard to observe the terrain while driving.
Her face looked particularly rosy in the cold wind. She drove the sled to break through the wind and snow barriers, and rolled up layers of white waves on the snow to the rhythm of the Hades Deer.
"It feels like it will take at least two or three hours before we see dawn."
Lanqi looked at the map in his hand in the faint moonlight and analyzed.
His eyes sometimes gazed at the snowy field in the distance, and sometimes turned to the girl driving the sled in the front seat and chatted with her.
Despite the long time, he did not fall asleep.
This is an area that Siglei has never been to. Even if she can find the right way, it is too far away from the orc city-state and cannot get the protection of the orc lord. At the same time, it is close to the border of the demon world. Danger may occur at any time. At this time, she must remain absolutely vigilant.
"When the time comes, you should quickly return to Xiaoye City. I have asked the great lords to take care of you along the way. You can still stay in the place where we stayed before, and you don't have to save money."
Lanci added.
It takes more than ten hours of night travel from Xiaoye City to the border of the Demon Realm.
On the way back, Siglee might have to drive for more than twenty hours straight. Even though her body and willpower were quite strong, she still needed a good rest.
“…”
Sigra did not respond to his question or nod for the time being.
The sound of breathing mixed with the night wind, accompanied by the rhythm of the running of the Hades Deer, forming a unique noise.
"Rocky, you are really amazing."
Sieglie suddenly spoke up.
"Why do you say that?"
Lanci asked curiously.
"I'm not in awe of your talent."
Sieglie looked ahead at the road and spoke to the people in the back seat.
She probably understands a little bit these days.
Rocky McCarthy left the comfortable and wealthy Helsharem and traveled through the snow and wind to repair the temple for the orcs, offering his strength to the Polant Empire at this critical moment.
Sieglie indeed saw this great craftsman gradually improve the orc lords' favorable impression of humans.
Even after he left, for a long time, the orc lords would surely be more friendly and even sincere to the humans passing through the city-state.
Maybe it will only be a minor change to the war situation in the Polant Empire or the war against the vampires, but if no one does anything, nothing will change.
A heavy rain requires millions of raindrops to gather together.
In other words, talent alone is useless; it also requires courage to change people's hearts.
The two were isolated from the world on the snowy field at night, yet seemed particularly close in front and behind the sled.
The sled continued in this silent silver world, accompanied by the dancing of snowflakes and the humming of the night wind, and finally moved towards the distant demon world.
Four updates today, the explosion of the evening!
