Chapter 769

At the beginning of summer, the prairie is colorful and full of vitality. The green oil grass is like an endless ocean, extending to the end of the connection between heaven and earth; Wild Alfalfa, golden silk grass and ryegrass show no weakness, grow wantonly in the oil grassland and publicize their tenacious vitality; On the sea of grass, you can also see low shrubs, purple Ding, seabuckthorn, awn branches, and clumps of dwarf trees that cannot be named. They are like waves on the green sea, swinging with the wind one after another.

Under the curtain of green sea and blue sky, colorful exotic flowers and plants, melons, fruits and wild berries add a touch of vivid and charming temperament to this magnificent grassland. Among them, there are many rare varieties that are rarely seen at ordinary times, such as golden blood moss with broad and oily leaves, bright red color and a dazzling golden line. They are not only beautiful and eye-catching, but also the key raw materials in a variety of pharmaceutical formulations.

Looking around, dozens of golden blood mosses grow on a small grassland.

The Randall expeditionary army's motorcade formed a long line and meandered along the refreshing sea of grass. Fifteen large, compact and elegant dragon lizards drag a bulky truck full of goods and materials, allowing solid log wheels to grind ruts on the grass. They can also lower their heads leisurely, roll the golden blood moss in the grass nest into the mouth with their tongue full of thorns, and chew slowly.

Hundreds of burly soldiers followed the dragon lizard war beast, most of them pulling wheelbarrows. Materials are also tied on the vehicle. The soldiers who served as rickshaw pullers walked like flying in the scorching sun, with no sweat on their faces, and their breath was as smooth as usual.

Not everyone needs to walk. Fifteen log carts have enough space for people to rest on them. The followers of his highness Randall and reverend Dane have their own places, but not everyone likes to stay in the carriage.

Bertina rode her big dog "white bread", screaming and screaming, rushed out of the line and rushed to the beautiful grassland. She saw the grassland for the first time in her life and was full of freshness to everything here. In the distance, a prairie fox with a newly captured fat hamster in its mouth just looked at the motorcade strangely, and bertina rushed out recklessly.

With a roaring smile, the silly Arka chased after "white bread", and the two alchemists responsible for protecting bertina also chased after him. The wizard imosen sitting in the carriage shouted "white bread" and wanted it to bring bertina back. Unfortunately, the fierce war dog ignored him and ran away with his little master. Imosen had no choice but to order several razor beasts the size of a spotted tiger to chase "white bread" to protect his baby daughter.

In fact, bertina will not encounter any danger at the edge of the grassland. The nearby weeds grow luxuriantly and can cover the legs of adults. However, due to the lack of stable water source, there are almost no large herbivores. Only rabbits, prairie otters and small animals such as foxes, wildcats and badgers jump around in the grass. Occasionally, one or two old wolves can be met, but there will never be groups of wolves.

Hunting rabbits and rats alone can't keep the whole wolf herd alive, let alone large beasts and monster groups.

The main danger in the periphery of the grassland comes from poisonous snakes lurking in the grass and disorientation. However, bertina has Caligula around her, so don't worry.

Looking at Victor's smile, he could not help smiling. He recalled that his royal highness with white hair was the first time he entered the Walton steppe. The accompanying battle priest was so anxious that it was useless to jump. He could only follow the troops across the Wharton prairie to a remote border town, and watched the Xunlong Knights have a private meeting with dodo's iron wall knights.

Roland is a powerful Golden Knight. Bell is just an innocent and pure little girl. No wonder imosen is worried. Other followers in the team are also worried that bell will have an accident.

Victor thought for a moment and asked Mei Wen, the Dragon maid, to follow him. "White bread" is a fierce fighting dog after all. It runs at an amazing speed. It's easy to carry bertina to the depths of the grassland. Caligula is also a big child without a heart. He will only run around with Bell's ass. with Meiwen around them, he can be safe.

In fact, Victor spoiled bell and aka and allowed them to explore and play on the grassland. He was also able to indulge the big one and the small two pistachios.

Bell and Arka had run out of sight, but the team didn't stop to wait for them, but continued to move forward. The most important thing for the field March is to find the water source first. The soldiers and war animals of the expeditionary army can't survive only by the water in the grass leaves like rabbits and otters. Only by finding the shallow river on the grassland can the team set up camp and rest, or find the traces of large animals and orcs on the grassland.

Surveying the environment of the prairie and the distribution of monster groups is the next main task of the expeditionary army. Victor hoped that the work could be completed within two months. The expeditionary army must enter the endless forest on the west side of the grassland before autumn. Otherwise, in winter, cold forest climate, lack of food, rain and snow blocking roads and other factors will seriously affect the exploration process of the expeditionary army.

It is not easy to find a river on the vast grassland. Fortunately, the team has eyes in the sky. The Emerson wizard released the blue eyed eagles to look for water sources with their high-altitude vision. However, the emergence of blue eyed Eagle attracted the fierce grassland harrier eagle. They called on their companions, boldly attacked the larger invaders, and defeated the blue eyed Eagles raised by wizards by virtue of their quantitative advantages. The flight altitude of the alchemical crow and Lin falcon is not enough, and they can't help. Victor had to do it himself, calling for the wind element and killing the grassland Eagles several kilometers high from the ground one by one. The eagles fled the sky battlefield. The attack also led to the folding wings of three blue eyed eagles.

The eagles lost the battle and announced the arrival of uninvited guests to the prairie. The team can't hide their whereabouts on the grassland with a wide view. Victor doesn't need to scatter the forward and the scouts on both wings. Everyone gathered in the team and rushed to the river more than 300 kilometers away.

The alchemical dragon lizard has long endurance and can travel thousands of miles a day by dragging trucks. The third level blood warrior with the talent of life tenacity can keep up with the dragon lizard carriage. It is the carriage itself that really limits the marching speed.

When the expeditionary army stopped at the grey rabbit mountains, the soldiers cut trees and processed them into wood, and then the craftsmen in the team converted 15 sledges into four-wheel carriages and dozens of two wheeled trolleys with those wood. These vehicles are not exquisite, that is, they are bulky and durable, but they can't stand the toss of the alchemical dragon lizard. If the speed is too fast, they must fall apart.

The team can only maintain a speed of about 30 kilometers per hour, which is much faster than taking the antelope camel on the road. At about dusk, the team arrived at the Bank of a shallow river on the grassland. The clear river reflected the dark purple sky, just like a magnificent purple ribbon falling between the green grass. Unfortunately, no large animals were seen near the river. They must have found outsiders and fled in advance. Today's dinner can only be bacon, salted fish, porridge with dry cakes.

Nelson commanded the soldiers to arrange the camp. They made a circle with a big carriage, took out many long wooden thorns from the carriage and inserted them in the open space between the carriages. This is the usual camping method of the herdsmen of Wharton grassland. Tents have to be set up in the middle of the camp, but the Randall expedition army did not bring too many oil canvas tents, because the soul soldiers are not afraid of cold and heat. They can spend the night as long as they spread a blanket on the grass.

A limited number of tents are reserved for followers. As for his highness himself, the largest carriage in the convoy is his temporary residence. Charlotte commanded the craftsmen in the team to build a beautiful and unique camp house around the carriage with wood components and oil canvas. In fact, Charlotte asked craftsmen to build this unique camp according to her design. Nicole hopes that Charlotte can take good care of her husband's daily life for her. Charlotte has spent a lot of effort and is very competent in this regard.

After the camp was built, Victor asked Lyra, Dili and Frey to walk around the camp, and all the annoying blood sucking mosquitoes and flies died.

The dragon power of dragon maids is more effective than any insect repellent potion.

After all this was taken care of, the soldiers began to make a fire to cook porridge. The smell of bacon mixed with wheat was everywhere, but bertina and they still didn't come back. Imosen finally couldn't sit still. He found Victor quietly and begged humbly, "master, do we send a team to find bell?"

Victor smiled and said, "they're fine now. Isn't your razor beast with bell? You can master her position at any time. There's no need to worry too much. Just let them go crazy outside for two days."

Emerson wanted to say something more. Through the curtain of the camp, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Charlotte, Marcy, and the Dragon maid taking the sword maids to the river to wash. They wore cool clothes and bare snow-white and smooth legs, talking and laughing through the reeds by the river. The wizard didn't dare to look more. He quickly lowered his head and bowed down to victor.

Watching imosen leave in a hurry, Victor was speechless for a while. The ladies are just playing in the water normally. Imosen's embarrassed appearance will make people mistakenly think that he caught the master peeking at the ladies' bath and was thrown out.

Do I need to peek at a beautiful lady? From the moment I was in kite castle, all the ladies peeped at me... Victor rubbed his smooth chin and thought proudly. In fact, he belongs to the proud nature of the sun elves.

After dinner and returning to the wagon camp, Victor and Charlotte talked about imosen's personal problems. He found that over the past few months, Emerson and reverend Dane were getting closer and closer, which must not be a good thing.

Although Emerson was a wizard, he believed in the Lord of glory since childhood and had a very subtle attitude towards the military priest. Dane can also find that imosen is not a family wizard kept by the York family. He is a wild wizard. However, imosen's gifted witchcraft is very useful, especially good at cultivating alienated war beasts. Any great power welcomes wizards like Emerson, and the church is no exception.

People all think that the clergy of the Lord of glory is the mortal enemy of evil wizards. In fact, the Church of glory is the most powerful force to feed wizards. They have two ways to place witches, one is the shadow priest selected from the Ayres, and the other is the secular regime controlled by the shining knights.

The church also has a set of self consistent words to absorb the talents of wild Wizards: the wizard whose soul is eroded by the devil is the evil who must be purified, and the servant of the Lord of glory can redeem the wizard's soul.

In short, whether the wizard is evil or not is up to the priest.

Dane must claim that Emerson is not evil, or he will become a fallen priest who secretly colludes with the devil. With the Enlightenment of the priest, imosen relaxed his vigilance against Dane and prayed to him every day to ask the Lord of glory to redeem his soul, perhaps including bertina.

Reverend Dane did not dare to pry into the corner of his highness Randall. Now he just wanted to get on well with his companions on the journey. In the future, if shepherd Dane wants to borrow imosen's ability, Dane's weight is enough and his courage is natural.

The problem now is that Emerson learned about a different world through his association with Reverend Dane. It is inevitable that new ideas will come into his mind. This is human's thinking instinct and can't be controlled. It doesn't mean that imosen will abandon the Randall family. However, wizards with extraordinary power must be bound and supervised by the family, and the sword maid can perform this task.

The sword maid is actually a secret death warrior carefully cultivated by the big family. The Lord will only give the sword maid to the members of the family. It is a little too much to say that the maid with the sword is the ear and eye of the core members of the family. But if the core members are consistent with the family, the sword maid obviously comes from the support of the Lord. Like the marriage of the Elina sisters and the Baron of Nicole, they are surrounded by the sword maid presented by the Rose Manor.

Nelson and they all chose two maidens with swords. Imosen didn't understand the truth and didn't take the initiative. No matter what he thought, Victor asked Charlotte to choose two ladies with swords and put them into him to take care of his daily life and protect his safety.

Early the next morning, Victor planned to go up along the grassland in Hebei, and let the Yalong Raiders Dili and Frey go down along Henan to explore this strange grassland in two ways. Laila, the most powerful red dragon maid, stayed to guard the camp. He wanted to act alone, so he would explore much faster. Charlotte held victor and begged him to bring some guards around. Victor had to let Klaus and Marcy choose three blood militia, plus three alchemical dragon lizards and four alchemical war mastiffs to form a convoy to accompany him.

Alchemy dragon lizard is worthy of being a silver class heavy-duty transportation unit. Under the condition of light load, it can run for three days and three nights at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour. This is to preserve the physical strength required for combat. If they run with all their strength, few monsters can catch up with them.

Unfortunately, the alchemy dragon lizard, as a war animal, is not friendly enough to riders. Ordinary people, let alone riding the alchemy dragon lizard for three days and nights, I'm afraid it will be dried by the air in most of the day. The senior bronze knight can barely give full play to the ability of the alchemy dragon lizard.

Silver level war beasts are best equipped with silver level riders. The accompanying blood militia limits the speed of the alchemy dragon lizard. It took Victor 23 days to explore the northern part of the prairie.

When they were about to return to the camp, Nelson, Reverend Dane, Charlotte, and four Dragon maids ran out to meet victor. Seeing each other and greeting each other, Victor noticed that they looked different, frowned and asked Nelson directly, "what happened here?"

Nelson looked strange and said in an uncertain tone, "the camp seems... Like a thief?"
