Artoria the Big Liar

But after that, she was not so happy.In other words, start to think about it calmly.

"Although it can pass, the matter here should be dealt with first, right?"

"Of course, Lily. It is our mission as 'saviors' to end the Obscure Belt and provide relief to the goblins. Or work. Only when the work is completed can vacations be approved and leisure time come."

"Does that mean... I won't be separated from Mordred in the future?"

"For sure. The boundary between dream and reality is not so clear. In the dream is the reality in the dream. I am not the same as my father! My body and reality are synchronized, not only the clothes, but also the body, And small parts that can be put into pockets. If Lily arrives there in a dream, I believe there will not be too many changes, right?"

It's just that it will be more difficult to get the approval of the world consciousness. As expected, the work must be completed first.

Perhaps consciousness and communication are two worlds becoming more familiar.The interval between entering the dreamland is much longer each time, and the time of staying in the dreamland is getting longer and longer each time.On the second day after school started, the dream I had in class lasted for four days without ending.

A promising job and a hopeless job are two completely different things.Convinced that a bright future awaits us, even if the work of gathering intelligence has not progressed, our morale will not be as low as before.

"Sure enough, there is still no information..." Although the morale is high, the loss is inevitable.

"I think we should change our strategy. Staying in Norwich is not a good choice." Isil's voice was still so calm. "Britain is not small, and it is not particularly big. We can search along the coastline first. It is better than staying in the city and doing nothing."

"The queen hid the tour bell. No one has known about the clock's existence for 2000 years. Even the Dragon Legion has no corresponding files. With just a few of us, it is unlikely to find useful information." The landlady said , "The point is...even I don't know! It's too mysterious. Although I haven't bothered to divination or make predictions these days because I don't want to cause trouble, but I think we can only rely on Lily It’s my own feeling. Isn’t that how I found the clock in Norwich before? It will definitely be the same next time.”

Regarding this matter, I actually have my own considerations.

The reason why I stayed in Norwich for a few days was that I didn't want to get into trouble in the wild.

The field means being unprepared, and it also means hunting, cooking, riding a horse, and many other time-consuming tasks.Even if the landlady can really move the house, this house is not a castle after all.During these four days we have had no fewer than twenty attacks, all by goblins.

To be able to stay in the city, one must at least have a legal status.But the elves who were exiled as refugees without paying taxes will attack even more recklessly.Both the frequency and intensity of attacks will increase significantly.

The Eternal Queen's request is only Lily's life and death, and doesn't care about other things.Even if the goblin dies due to the attack, the Eternal Queen can find its reincarnation and reward it with promotion to elf.Since then, not only has he gained a high social status, but he has also avoided the fate of becoming Moss forever. Even if his soul dies, he can go to the paradise opened inside the Holy Lance.

However, I really don't seem to have any other options.

"Okay... that's it."

The elves and goblins are procrastinating, but I am a human being, so I quickly push the team out【#'

The horses bought at Norwich have worked.Riding an elf warhorse, the speed is unexpectedly fast.Counting the area called "Scotland" in reality, it would take a total of one month to circle the island.

The only problem is Bagster.She is a barghest at heart, and the elven warhorses are afraid of her.Every horse refused to carry her, and she ended up at the rear of the line, advancing in her original barghest stance.Not only is the sound huge, but its magical characteristics are also quite obvious, and it is easy to be surprised.

The terrain of Britain is very flat, there are not many hills, and the end can be seen at a glance.

Norwich is close to Londyneum, so our trip went all the way north.Although many goblins tried to attack by self-destructing, they were all directly blasted by the landlady's long-range rays-the elves basically have no kindness to goblins.Although Lily felt sorry for these elves, she endured them all the time.

When the fourth day was about to enter dusk, my intuition suddenly told me that there were powerful enemies approaching at an extremely fast speed.Use the Dragon's Vision to detect the "existence" in the surrounding three kilometers, and as expected, there is a team approaching from the southwest.There are four people in this team, with dragonfly wings, using the original goblin magic, urging the strong wind, and flying along with the wind.

"Get ready, there are enemy attacks in the southwest."

After my order, we immediately put our defenses on the line.

Lily released the signal, calling for Bagster to return to the team.

However, Bagster, who sensed the signal, did not return, but moved towards the team.

I know what she means.The creature that goblins fear most is the barghest, because the barghest can suck magic power.Even if it is not killed, after the goblin loses its magic power, it will be too late to pay taxes, and it will be demoted as a refugee, losing the qualification to be promoted to an elf.Therefore, as long as the dog demon growled a few times, even the strongest goblin would retreat.

Because of this, there was not a single goblin in the swamp wonderland at the beginning, and all of them were scared away by Bagster.

The roar of the dog demon reverberated in the air, a hundred times stronger than the roar of a lion. I am afraid that all living things within a hundred kilometers nearby could hear the threat from the dog demon.But the four goblins in the air ignored the barghest's warning and still flew straight towards us.

"Ithil, do you need me to take action? My magic power just restrains these flying guys." I smiled confidently and asked Ithir who had already set up his shield and held the star lance.

I am the leader of the team, so there is no need to ask this kind of question at such a critical moment.

So here is my request for authorization from Dragonflight.If Isil agrees, he can use the Dragon Legion as a shield if he encounters interrogation or trouble in the future.

Ithil understood what I meant and shook his head.

"Mordred, your magical power is too special. Once the characteristics are known, the dragon army will not be able to explain it. When the opponent approaches, let's decide the outcome with swordsmanship."

"Okay. Then do as you say."

Longswords are not suitable for use on horseback.I dismounted from my elven horse and met the enemy on foot.

When the four goblins approached, with my naked eyesight, I confirmed a fact.

——That's not an elf at all, but an elf disguised as an elf!The wings on their backs are a kind of magic dress, and they are covered in black battle clothes!It's the Shadow Legion, and they're at it again!

"Beep--!"

The sound of light emission sounded at the same time.

It is the ray arcane of the landlady, and the burst of light from Ithil's star spear.

The landlady's arcane power is like a cosmic superman's ray, instantly knocking down an elf.The light of the Star Lance had tracking, and another elf wanted to avoid it, but the light clung to it like a missile. The elf who was being chased had to keep as far away from his companion as possible, and then voluntarily bumped into the light.

White and light blue flames exploded in the air, expanding rapidly, like another sun.The elf who was hit was instantly wiped out, and the companion in front of him staggered in the air because of the shock wave of the explosion.

Seizing this opportunity, a scarlet light cannon came from behind them, much thicker than the light from the landlady and Isil, almost the difference between a rifle and a field cannon.The light cannon instantly devoured the remaining two elves.If I hadn't determined the location, I would have thought that some cosmic monster had descended on the Belt of Stranger Things!

The scarlet cannon was of course produced by Bagster.After her runaway became a disaster, she was awakened by Lily.It was because of her own strength that she eliminated all the pursuers and protected Lily to hide in that swamp fairyland.Let Lily live a rare peaceful life for several weeks.

"As expected of Bagster, he is really powerful. Should he be the most powerful besides me?" I sighed.

"Almost." Ithil admitted bluntly, "Bagster has swallowed a lot of magic power. Even the great knights have to join forces to defeat it. If she is allowed to devour magic power, I am afraid that the entire kingdom will be destroyed."

Thinking about it this way, Bagster and I expressed hostility at the beginning, and it was indeed a little arrogant.

This also indirectly proves that my team is indeed quite powerful, and it can kill the enemy in an instant without my taking action.

"I really don't understand. Even if we can be resurrected, why did the Eternal Queen waste her power to send an enemy of this level to stop us? She must know that she can't stop us, right?"

"I think... it should be spying on us." It was Lily who spoke, which made me raise my eyebrows slightly. "Our information, in fact, the Eternal Queen already knows. The only thing she doesn't know is Mordred. And she should still be guessing how Mordred blocked Ankaragang's energy sword."

I added a few words: "Besides, during the trial stage, high-level combat power cannot be wasted at will. The queen is a cautious person, as cautious as a mother. Danger is graded. Things are prioritized. Before we ring Until the fourth bell, her strategy should have been this low-intensity, high-frequency raid or probing."

Isir nodded and echoed: "The Queen is indeed such a person. So she cannot bear the responsibility of suppressing the disaster. The result of being too cautious is to miss the opportunity. When it is time to act, you should not hesitate."

While we chatted, Bagster reverted to his goblin knight form and trotted up to us.

Seeing that Lily was unharmed, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and her nervous expression finally eased.

"It's all right, Bagster. It's not what it used to be. The dragonflight is not hostile, and the companions are strong this time. Just find the five remaining bells, ring them, and be innocent." The goblins can return to Paradise, and they no longer need to suffer sins in Britain and live in pain."

Bagster nodded and said nothing.Then, she took a look at me.

I know what she means.Although I have repeated it countless times, I still want to say it here.

Clenching my right hand into a fist and placing it between the collarbones on both sides, I solemnly swear to her.

"Bagster, Lily is the one I love. I give my life to keep her safe."

She opened her mouth, and was about to speak, but in the end she didn't say anything. She returned to the rear of the team and returned to the posture of a giant dog monster. She seemed to be moving slowly, but actually quickly, across the sea of ​​flowers in Britain in the Lost Belt.

Lily also wanted to talk to me, but she still didn't say anything after all.

According to what the father said, the British population in the Hearing Belt is quite sparse, including the elves, the total number is less than one million.Therefore, the number of villages is much less than that of pan-human history, and the number of towns is even more limited.We rode elf warhorses, marched through the boundless sea of ​​flowers, and arrived in today's Yorkshire before dark.

Along the way, the landlady and Isil kept introducing me to the humanities and history related to Yorkshire.

Since it is a parallel world, if the Strange Belt wants to survive, it must be related to pan-human history.Tonalico named the city according to the pan-human history.The capital of Yorkshire is Leeds, which has a smaller population than Norwich, with a permanent population of less than 500.About [-] years ago, York was the front line against the Mirror Clan.With the birth of the race of elves, Tonalic quickly unified the entire island and promoted the high-level members of the Mirror Clan to elves.

Although the north is in a semi-independent state because of the distance, there is no need to continue the defense of York.The pollen production of Huahai is related to the sunlight exposure, so the cities to the south are more prosperous.The combination of the two creates a decadent and decaying atmosphere in Leeds. Most of the houses are low and even without walls. It doesn't look like a city at all, just a slightly larger classical town.

Elves are mostly lazy, and goblins are even more lazy.If the city manager is not a very good person who can ensure the stability of taxation, this city should not appear on the map, and this area should also be a sea of ​​flowers.

"So, who is this mayor? It sounds pretty good." I asked Ithil.

Isil replied: "Springen is an elf. But unlike most elves, he was a human before he became an elf. According to him, he was abducted here by elves in the history of pan-humans. He came. But the goblins went the wrong way and dropped him in the rift of time and space. He came to this world by himself, became the mayor and elf through hard work, and is quite a famous figure."

Chapter Eighty: Sprint

◆Mordred◆

Since Springen is the mayor, it must be someone from Tona Riko.

To make an inappropriate analogy, unlike most people's cognition, in Britain in the Lost Belt, the father symbolizes divine power, and Tonalico symbolizes royal power.Unless it is a ruler who combines politics and religion like the Son of Heaven or the Caliph, the theocracy often overwhelms the royal power.Therefore, no matter what the dragon army does, the worldly beings cannot interfere.

Because of Ithil, we still belong to the dragonflight in name.The source of intelligence that can be relied on can only be the outpost of the local dragon army.It is really not a wise move to contact Springen rashly.

"Lily, can you feel the clock?" In a corner, I asked Lily.

"Not feeling it. Maybe Leeds don't have a clock?" Lily replied.

The landlady said: "The first bell has already been rung. Moreover, the Eternal Queen is also the savior of the previous generation. She must have the same perception ability as you. Then the defense against other bells will definitely be strengthened. As long as she feels If you don't, you can't feel it either. Finding the next bell must be a drop in the bucket."

Lily was silent and seemed a little lost.She is the kind of girl who gets depressed easily.

At this time, she needs the encouragement of her peers, especially from me.

"It's okay, time is not urgent, just look for it slowly." I said, "And, strictly speaking, we don't have much conflict with the goal of the Eternal Queen. Her idea is to save all elves, and our idea is Save all the goblins. The more loose we are, the less hostile the queen will be to us."

"Well, I know, Mordred." After a pause, she said: "However, there are still conflicts. I want to ring all the bells of the tour as soon as possible, so that fewer goblins will become Moss , die forever. The Eternal Queen wants to slow down all the pilgrimage clocks as much as possible, so that more goblins will transform into elves. I had this idea before, anyway, goblins that are still alive can become elves, so I simply I just want to do nothing, so I lived in seclusion in the swamp with Bagster. However, I saw a goblin transforming into Moss on the road, and saw those eyes of complete despair. "

In the back of my mind, not only do I disagree with what Lily said, but I also want to complain.

——If you worked so hard, why did you walk so slowly in the previous journey.

But in the next instant, I understood.She walked slowly not because she didn't work hard, but because she was overwhelmed by fear and worry, and her heart was full of doubts and unease.After determining the direction and goal, and ringing the first tour bell, she didn't take so long to do things, but was more impatient than a human being like me.

In front of everyone, my lips touched Lily's forehead lightly.Both Isil and Bagster turned their heads away, and the landlady stared at us with bright eyes.This kind of thing has happened many times, and everyone has gradually gotten used to it. Now Lily doesn't even turn red anymore, just a little shy.

"Well, that's right. If you don't save in time, it can't be called rescue at all. Then... let's rest in Leeds tonight, and go to Northumberland when the sun rises tomorrow?"

"Okay." Lily replied quite simply.

As the great knight of the dragon army, Ithil's cards are not usually big.

As long as she reveals her identity as a great knight, no one will disregard her face.

The title of Moon Knight itself is quite resounding.The sapphire armor containing the brilliance of the stars is also very eye-catching.Wherever she appeared, there were always people looking at her curiously.This is decisively different from Norwich.It seems that people here don't know Lily's wanted identity, nor do they know how Bagster exists.

Because of this, when we stayed in the hotel, an elf with four elf knight guards came in.Unlike all elves, the guarded elf has a long beard, which represents his identity before becoming an elf-human.

"I never expected that such a remote country town like Leeds would have such a distinguished guest as the Moon Knight. If it was just like this, it would be fine. I never thought that the real distinguished guest would be a human being." Speaking of which, the bearded elf Put your right hand on your chest, bow slightly, and salute me. "It's really my fault for not coming to visit right away. My lord, Springen, is the mayor of Leeds, managing the city on behalf of the Eternal Queen who is far away in Camelot."

"It seems that you know my identity?" I raised my eyebrows and looked at the elf in front of me.

"If you are a local resident of this world, after hearing your name, you may not know the reason, but I am not, I have the knowledge of pan-human history. The moment I heard your name, combined with your appearance, I am very I soon realized your identity——five years ago, I met His Majesty the Dragon King. I will not mistake those eyes."

The corner of my mouth curled into a smile, and I stared with interest at the elf who looked about 40 years old in front of me.

"It's normal to have similar eyes. Lots of people have golden eyes. That's not enough to support your argument."

"However, the lonely Moon Knight is willing to live in the middle and rear of the team. I really can't think of anyone other than someone who has the same status as Lord Meluxin." After a pause, Splinter smiled and turned to me. bowed deeply. "Your Majesty Sprint, welcome to His Highness."

"I'm not some highness, you are someone else's mistake." After thinking about it, I felt that it was inappropriate to continue pretending, so I indirectly confessed my identity. "Please get up. My identity has not been disclosed. My status has not been acknowledged. Before everything is settled, you'd better not delve into this matter too deeply. Otherwise, it will only lead to disaster."

"Of course. Please rest assured. I will never let you down."

"I have a special mission. Please treat me as an ordinary traveler."

"It's natural. What happened tonight is just tonight."

"So, Mr. Sprint, do you have anything else to do?"

"I visited you only because I didn't complete the proper etiquette. Since you don't blame me for being late and rude, I am already very satisfied. And it is a great honor for you to condescend to come to a small town like Leeds. "

This series of polite words is indeed very human and very bureaucratic.

Even for a staid elf like Ithil, she spoke and acted bluntly.

Elves have a long lifespan, lack of intergenerational inheritance, and are strong individuals, so they don't pay much attention to etiquette.

"It's not a visit, it's just doing the king's business. If you have nothing else to do, why don't you just leave here? You came to visit with great fanfare and attracted a lot of attention. If you delay for too long and delay the king's business, you and I It's a trivial matter for your future success, but delaying His Majesty's major event is not allowed under any circumstances."

"I'm being rude. But I'm visiting you today because I have something very important to ask."

I met Splinter's gaze.This human being who has gained a long lifespan is quite cunning, and the city is very deep. I can't see what he is thinking, but I can only see sincerity and humility.

"Oh, what exactly is it?"

"I don't know if you have heard of it. There is a piece of information circulating in the court of Camelot. There has been a gap between the Dragon King and the Queen, and the two have lived separately. Recently, the Queen's complexion is extremely bad and impatient."

"Of course I know that. Any questions?"

"The reason for the gap is unknown to everyone for the time being. But the gap does already exist. Please treat it as a momentary curiosity-what is the reason that caused such a big disturbance between the two who have been in love for 2000 years?"
