Chapter 325 Chapter 178 Reunion


Chapter 325 178. Reunion

“Miss, the convoy is ready.”

Early in the morning, at Blackstone Castle, the elderly maid and Itilia in the wheelchair said.

There are trucks covered with raincloths arranged neatly outside the city gate, and the same oxcarts and horse-drawn carriages are parked in the town in the distance.

"Are we really leaving..."

The old maid looked at the standing black castle with reluctance. She had been at the castle for as long as she could remember, her mother had been that way, and her mother's mother had been that way.

This is the clan land of the Reeves family, and it is also their home...

"The Rat Man is coming. We can take refuge in Annan's fiefdom, and we can still help him."< br>
Itilia stretched out her hand and asked the maid to carry her into the carriage. The silent convoy drove toward the town, then led the long convoy that stretched hundreds of meters to the west.

The castles and towns in the distance become smaller and smaller until they disappear. Forced away from home, the team became depressed. Except for a few teenagers who were about the same age as Annan gathered together and whispered excitedly.

It can be predicted that this journey will not be peaceful... The loss of contact with the gods at the beginning of the year caused a lot of churches to have their heads broken, and then there was news of a rat plague. Not long ago, even the northern border was in danger. Bandits, mercenary groups... They will not let go of this slow, lengthy convoy with civilians making up the majority.

The carriage bearing the snowflake emblem of the Twelve Kings of the North was driving steadily at the front of the motorcade.

“Are you still there?”

Itilia sat in the carriage, her hands clasped together, her pale and slender legs under her white skirt folded together and hanging slightly. She held her head like a devout saint.

“What do you want to say.”

A whisper that only Itilia could hear sounded in the carriage.

“If Annan wants to annex the Reeves family, please stop him.”

“Our contract is about to end.”

“So only when the contract ends Before. Thank you for your willingness to leave the Fire Dragon's habitat..."

"Because our contract is ending"

The voice repeated itself again.

Itilia stopped talking, her quiet and weak body occasionally swayed along with the carriage, as if this boredom occupied most of her life.

"Why don't you imitate the Barros family in the royal capital?"

That voice broke the silence.

As the holder of the Guardian Key, the Fire Dragon will also see the letter received by Itilia, so he knows the situation of Faru Barus in the Royal Capital.

"My ancestors hope that the honor of the family will continue, but if it becomes the plaything of the nobles, I think my ancestors would rather the bloodline is cut off."

"Jonah Reeves would indeed think so." Whispers of the Fire Dragon caused Long memories bring with them a hint of nostalgia.

The carriage returned to silence.

We drove without incident for two days, but on the evening of the third day, something happened just about 50 miles outside the Osu Lund Territory.

First, the rangers found seemingly invisible traces on both sides of the road, and then the guards in front found that the road was blocked by mounds of earth.

The distant sound of horns echoed in the forest, the winding motorcade stopped, and the guards surrounded Itilia's carriage.

"You go protect the townspeople and leave me alone." Itilia opened the curtain and ordered, and then said to the young housekeeper: "Tell them our identity."

Guards They dispersed, and the butler shouted repeatedly toward the dark and silent forest: "We are the family and subjects of Annan Reeves, the King of the North. No matter who you are, please leave here!"

When the housekeeper was about to scream, the guard rushed over and said that the figures in the forest had receded and the road was open again.

The convoy continued to advance after a false alarm, but the guards tightened their grip on their weapons, and the townspeople sitting on the carts only spoke in low voices.

"It seems that boy has a good reputation." The fire dragon whispered.

Itili agreed: "Annan has the best chance to bring the family back to its peak..." "But he is not your tribe."

Itili Ya lowered her head, her pale skin exuding a hazy glow under the magic lamp.

"As long as he has children of the family..."

The migration team of more than 5,000 people could not get up quickly. On the fifth day, they arrived at a nearby town to make some supplies. Maintaining the current speed, they should arrive at Xingyue Bay after entering the cold winter and before the arrival of the rat men.

As a result, just after setting off from the town, there were some tails behind the team.

They are homeless refugees and I hope the team can take them with them.

“Our convoy can’t accommodate any more people.” The steward told them of Itilia’s decision. But they continued to follow the slow convoy.

Itilia did not contain or drive them away, they can follow if they want. As a result, more and more refugees followed the convoy. The harsh winter coupled with the rat plague left them no choice.

On the seventh day, early in the morning, the distant horn sounded again.

“Alert!”

The guards raised their weapons, and the refugees behind the team also fell into chaos, because a white dragon approached from the horizon, and a figure sat faintly on the dragon's back.

The white dragon circled the convoy several times, as if it had found its target, and began to dive.

"Put away your weapons." Itilia ordered, watching in surprise as the white dragon landed in the forest clearing, and a familiar figure jumped off the dragon's back.

"Sister!"

Laila passed the guards unobstructed and was buried in Itilia's arms.

"Why are you running here?" Itilia gently stroked Leila's head.

"My little brother said you are too slow. He will pick us up after a while."

Itilia looked at Bailong: "Use Bailong?"
< br>

"You will know soon!"

Laila expressed her longing and told her eldest sister her experiences in Xingyue Bay in the past few months.

Itilia reluctantly asked the guard to tell the team to take a temporary break and pay attention to returning to Leila.

"...The fish I caught are...as big as this horse!" Leila said, pointing to the strong brown horse.

“It seems that my little brother is bragging to me.” Itilia smiled slightly, “He said the fish you caught is as big as a white dragon.”

"Well... there are some! I haven't finished yet! As soon as I caught it, another fish jumped out. It turned out to be its mother. The fish was as big as a white dragon-"

"What's going on with those people?" Leila found that a bunch of dirty refugees were following behind the team.

“They gathered on the road, they want me to take them.”

“Take them, Xingyue Bay needs people everywhere!” Leila puffed up her mouth, “You don’t Knowing that Annan is so hateful, I have to work twelve hours a day, and you can see that I’m tanned..."

"How do you feel about Annan now?"

"What about..." Leila suddenly became quiet and muttered: "He doesn't care about me at all..."

"You are the sister and he is the brother, why should you let him care about you?"

"Yes..."

At noon, the portal appeared in front of Bailong on time.

Itilia stared blankly at the boy standing on the other side of the portal, wearing a mage's robe. Mist emerged from her eyes, and the boy in front of her gradually overlapped with her younger brother.
