Chapter 275 Traveling
Baron Roman left the Red Keep. He wanted to return to his territory and take Sir Ross back to the Red Keep to admit his mistake.
However, he will not be able to relinquish his position as finance minister for a while, so he will be temporarily replaced by his eldest brother Roland.
This also means that Roland cannot go to Heiting Mountain with Russell to visit Rowling who is about to give birth.
“Say sorry to Luo Lin for me. I should have gone to visit her, but my father left and the Volcano Minister’s stall cannot be left without someone to take over.” Roland has been a little quiet these days, far less out-of-the-box than before.
It seemed that Russell was about to become a dragon knight, and he seemed a little depressed, but on the other hand, he had also become a lot more mature and steady.
“Official duties are important. Brother, you can stay in the Red Castle and take care of your father’s worries. It’s enough for me to visit my sister,” Russell said.
“Have you prepared any gifts for Luo Lin, or your unborn nephew or niece?”
“I bought a piece of gemstone jewelry for my sister,” Russell said. “As for my nephew or niece, I plan to give a special gift. The bear bees in my territory have grown and grown, and I plan to give a group of bear bees as a gift. As a birth ceremony.”
“Hmm, bear bee? This is a breeding beast… But last time Rowling gave you an elf bug, it makes sense for you to give her child bear honey this time,” Roland said.
Then he took out another wrapped box and handed it to Russell: “I have also prepared gifts for Rowling and her children. They are all in this box. Please help me take them over.”
“good.”
Russell took the box and felt a breath of life. He couldn’t help but asked curiously: “What gift is this?”
“A phantom egg, the phantom egg of a long-tailed pheasant.” Roland smiled, “This was given to me by Archduke Kunstein… I originally planned to hatch it myself and then raise it, but now I Decided to contract the Phantom Beast as soon as possible.”
So he didn’t plan to wait any longer for the long-tailed pheasant’s phantom egg to hatch.
After a pause, Roland continued: “You gave me a cultured Yuan Beast as a gift. As the eldest brother, how can I be inferior to your gift?”
“Sister will be very happy.”
“Tell her that after I finish my work with the Minister of the Volcano, I will definitely take the time to visit her.”
“clear.”
After explaining this, the two brothers suddenly fell into a speechless atmosphere. Russell is not a talkative person. In the past, the eldest brother Roland took the lead in getting along among the brothers, but now Roland has become much more silent than before.
After a while, Roland patted Russell on the shoulder and said, “Luo Lin is alone in Heiting Mountain. It’s not as good as when she was in Youguang Valley. Everyone doted on her… So we are Luo Lin’s strong backing. You must Tell her this.”
“Of course.” Russell smiled, “Soon Rowling will be the sister of a dragon knight.”
Hearing this, the corners of Roland’s mouth twitched. He originally wanted to say a few more words, but now he didn’t want to say any more.
After saying goodbye.
Russell went to see Cousin Mel again.
As the chosen son, Mel has been busy with various mundane duties recently. Whenever he has something to do, he has to go to the grassroots to visit and express condolences to the disabled knights. So much so that despite living in Mel’s independent tower, Russell rarely saw Mel.
“Are you going to visit Luo Lin? I’ve been so busy recently that I forgot that Luo Lin is about to give birth… Well, I’m going to prepare a gift and you can take it there for me.”
Mel prepared a long gemstone sword, which should suit Rowling’s taste. After all, Rowling likes to dance with swords when she has nothing to do.
He even thought about being promoted to a Grand Knight and then contracting a fantasy beast to become a female fantasy beast knight.
However, after giving birth to a child, her vitality was severely damaged, and Luo Lin’s path of fighting qi cultivation would probably be cut off as well.
This is also the reason why female fantasy beast knights are rare.
Most women who are qualified to practice cultivation come from aristocratic families, and daughters of aristocratic families are basically required to marry and have children. If you really have to wait for a woman to be promoted to a fantasy beast knight before having children, she will be too old.
Moreover, after the Dou Qi is merged into Yuan Qi, if the body is too strong, it will also affect the probability of pregnancy.
This is also the reason why second-generation fantasy beasts are rare – similar fantasy beasts are hard to find. Even if they are found, the mother beast is too strong and it will be difficult to successfully give birth to offspring.
However, this probability may be lower than raising a group of ordinary beasts and hoping that fantasy beasts will be born among the beasts.
Farewell Cousin Mel.
Russell took Big Bear Grove with him and left the Red Castle and headed northeast of the volcanic oasis – Black Court Mountain is located in the northeast corner of the volcanic oasis.
The journey was smooth.
Although February and March are in the coldest period of the ice age, the volcanic oasis still has spring all year round, and only the outer edges feel like winter.
“Gah!”
Leaving the suppression range of the Shadow Flame Dragon, Little Menglong also began to re-energize and went on adventures with Russell every night.
Only when we reach the caves on the edge of the volcanic oasis can we truly feel the power of the Ice Age.
The entire cave has been sealed by ice, and the original business road has become narrow and difficult to navigate, making it impossible for carriages to pass. When we reached the snowfield, the road conditions got even worse. Snow was flying all over the sky, and the heavy snow directly submerged the commercial road.
The Great Wall of Ice and Snow is clearly visible in the warm season, but during the ice age only scattered watch towers are still exposed, and the roads can be vaguely discerned.
“Bill, come on!” Grove encouraged loudly.
He did not choose to ride a horse, but rode his contract partner, Bill the Windblade Brown Bear.
Bill’s huge body made walking in the snow very difficult. Fortunately, the phantom beast is extremely powerful, and Bill has eaten and drank a lot in the past few days, so he has accumulated enough nutrients in his body that he can continue to use wind blade magic to clear the way.
“roar!”
Bill opened his mouth and spit out a few wind blades. The snow directly in front of him penetrated a channel, and then it squeezed all the way along the channel.
Seeing Grove and Bill’s clumsy march, Russell had to sigh once again that his contractual partner, the unicorn Pauly, was simply the knight’s most perfect partner.
It was an easy flight, and the heavy snow during the Ice Age had no impact on him at all.
“Sir, I’m holding you back.” Looking at Russell who quickly flew ahead and then stopped to wait, Grove scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.
“It doesn’t matter, just walk slowly.” Russell glanced ahead, “The Black Fire Commercial Road is very short and can be crossed in one day.”
The warm enclave of Heiting Mountain is very close to the volcanic oasis.
During the warm season, not to mention knights, even caravans can cross the Black Fire Trade Road in a day, so there is frequent communication with the volcanic oasis.
However, it is the same during the Ice Age, and caravans cannot take the trade route at all.
In the evening, the two finally crossed the Black Fire Commercial Road, and the moment they walked down the snowy field, Bill, the Windblade Brown Bear, couldn’t help but roar up to the sky: “Roar!”
This journey has made him exhausted.
Paulie glanced at Bill, not disdainfully, but somewhat disapprovingly. The journey was stop-and-go for him, which was very dragging.
“Russell, don’t take Grove and Bill out next time, it’s too slow.” It said in its mind.
Russell smiled and responded in his mind: “Then no one can take you with you, not Grove and Bill, not Eric and Kevin. Except for the flying fantasy beast, no one can keep up with you. speed.”
Unicorn Paulie’s speed can easily reach 200 kilometers per hour when sprinting.
“Then let’s set off alone. With our strength, even if we encounter Snow Giant Da, we have nothing to be afraid of.” Baoli responded with some pride. It can’t run away even if it can’t be beaten. Even Snow Giant Da can’t catch it. .
“Okay, let’s go alone next time!”
