Chapter 38. Caroline's Appeal

They need to stay in Xiye City for a few days. The reason is that after passing Xiye City and walking out of the Xiye Plain, it is the province of Derek with a complex terrain.

That was the last barrier to the north of the capital, with mountains and fortresses continuously. La Rochelle adopted a system of parallel provinces and aristocratic territories, which has been the case since the new dynasty replaced the old dynasty two hundred years ago.

Such as the Swipa area and the Judea Pass are the territory of the nobles. As the last insurance to the north of the capital, the Derek area naturally cannot be distributed to the fiefdom of a certain duke, but as a province, obeying the orders of the provincial consul.

As for why La Rochelle adopted such a political system, it still starts with what happened two hundred years ago. But when Cyril was in the game, he only learned some things related to this aspect, and only knew that a war broke out.

After the war, almost all the information related to the old dynasty was eliminated by the new dynasty, and Hermann I decisively distributed the area to the nobles of the meritorious and nobles at that time, and the strategy of calming the people was indeed effective. When La Rochelle calmed down from the aftermath of the war and began to flourish, few people would care about how miserable the previous dynasty was.

In Xiye City, Cyril and others need to replenish their equipment. If conditions permit, they even plan to replace them with a batch of horses and carriages. They use long-legged horses from the northern plains and are good at rushing on the plains. However, the Derek province has mountainous land, rugged roads and better endurance, which are the more suitable choices.

Of course, if Xiye City can have the right talents, Cyril will decisively persuade him to join. If he is a top talent, no matter whether the other party wants it or not, he will tie the carriage first.

However, Cyril recalled it and did not remember any particularly powerful guy who lived here, so he gave up.

As the link between the royal capital and the northern border, Xiye City is actually very prosperous. Horse carriages are on a dedicated horse carriage lane. Although the road is so spacious, it is still blocked.

There are long poles erected at the doors of the houses on the roadside, and large flags with green edges and blue bottoms are hung on them, and large birds are painted with silver patterns. There are long ears on the edge of the flag, and bells are tied to the ears. When the breeze blows, the bells will ring.

Cyril was wrapped in a cloak. Under his insistence, the little girls and aliens in the team were still traveling in a cloak. They really had to wait for the carriage to stop in the tavern. I don’t know what time it will take. In the end, the final result of the rock-scissors was that Evans and Crand were responsible for the carriage to stop, and everyone checked in the tavern first.

"That's for the sacrifice ceremony." Cyril pointed to the big flag around him and whispered, "The bells were blown by the wind, and in the hearts of the people of Xiye City, it means that Feng Xi's nerves have passed. The exaggerated crazy believers will even kneel down and then dance—"

As he said, his fingertips moved slightly, and the magic power in the wind element pool naturally flowed out. Suddenly, several big flags around him were dancing, and the sound of Lingling kept ringing.

The residents who were walking in front of them just now suddenly stopped and knelt down as Cyril said, then danced with strange postures.

"Do they want to keep dancing like this?" Caroline raised her head, letting the hood of the cloak not cover her eyes, and asked Cyril with a frown. She learned to dance and watch, but the dance was too weird and the movements were extremely awkward. After only two moves, Caroline chose to give up.

"They don't need it, and it will stop when the wind stops. But if you are caught on the stage and dance - the stage should be placed in the center of Xiye City, then the jump will take three days. You can't stop or make mistakes. If you make mistakes, you have to jump again."

Caroline immediately tightened her cloak and pulled the hood that had just been lifted up a little lowered: "I understand, I will never run around!"

They walked all the way to the tavern, and when they were halfway through, Cyril suddenly stopped.

"The Beita Chamber of Commerce is also distributed here." Mia raised her head and looked at the badge of the chamber of commerce above her head, and was a little surprised. "I wonder if the young master in their family has escaped successfully."

"I guess I escaped," Cyril replied, "Elina, Miss Misha and you will take Caroline and luggage to check in first, let's buy some things first."

"Do you want to buy it? I want to see it too!" Caroline shouted with her little hand raised high.

"Then you have to move things." Cyril turned sideways, but saw Heloise nodding slightly to him, without any intention of leaving.

"His Excellency Treville also needs to buy?"

"Your Highness." She replied concisely, and then took the lead in entering the Chamber of Commerce's shop.

"Mia, follow the recipe and see if you can buy all these. I also bought some of the recipes last time, and the potion has been used almost."

Cyril glanced at the narrow store and did not choose to squeeze in. Mia was obviously much more skilled in dealing with business, so it would be better to teach her how to complete it.

Caroline ran two laps in the Chamber of Commerce's shop, but unfortunately it was just a simple store, with only a few people in charge of the conversation here, neither showing the goods nor piled up of goods. Not long after, the girl walked out of the store indifferently and sat next to Cyril sitting on the stone steps at the door.

"Cyril, how far have we gone."

She pulled Cyril's sleeve and woke the half-elf boy from his daze.

"Ah." Cyril came to his senses, "It's almost time to get to the capital.... If you move forward normally, you will arrive in just one month."

"It will take so long." Caroline hugged her knees, suddenly learning what she didn't know was Mia or Alina, and sighed.

"What's wrong?" Cyrill was happy. The little girl's tender face was really interesting to make such actions as the young girl's melancholy.

"How long will it take to see my father..."

Caroline buried her face in her knees and said in a muffled manner.

Cyril suddenly fell silent.

"Yes, your father...I remember, he went to Wangdu?" he asked in a daze.

"Um."

Cyril really forgot about Caroline's father. After all, Caroline never even mentioned it along the way. Only when he left Tap Town did he clearly state this requirement.

Caroline's father, a blacksmith in a small town in the northern border, was summoned to the capital by an urgent order from the kingdom. He may not even know the tragedy that happened in his hometown.

Yes, it turns out that Caroline was not tied to her car. She took her to find her father for her. At least she had to get the latter's consent to continue to lead the little girl forward.

Cyril fell into thinking for a moment. The point about Caroline's father was something that players had never touched before - they never knew anything, and they needed to let the blacksmiths from the northern town participate in the construction.

He thought for a while, but was woken up by Caroline pulling her sleeve and shouting:

"Cyril, Cyril, look, what are the people over there doing?"

Cyril looked in the direction she pointed, and was startled and woke up in an instant:

Just across the street, in the narrow alley between two rows of houses, a figure dragged a body that was constantly struggling and walked slowly.
