Half-elf Notebook

Chapter 57 Parade

Together with the soldiers prepared by Dongcheng District at the back, there were nearly six hundred soldiers.

This is equivalent to withdrawing twice the number of soldiers stationed at the single gate in Lei Shi City.

"They all appear to be paid, formally trained, active soldiers, plus the nobles' private soldiers and personal guards."

"In the wilderness, it would definitely be enough to wipe out a village ruled by a bronze rank person. It's really grand."

Ina thought as she tasted the delicious ice milk tea.

In fact, she did not participate in any battles against the wilderness bandits' strongholds.

But she dared to say frankly that she would never be able to deal with a charging team of a hundred cavalrymen wearing plate armor and riding on war horses.

Especially among them, there are professionals with certain ranks who can use magic scrolls and magic items.

At this moment, the sound of tragic and graceful music came from outside the window, and a team with various musical instruments that Ina had never seen before walked slowly on the road.

The performance drowned out the boiling vocals, but there was not much noise.

The moving instruments and the cold wind did not seem to pose much of an obstacle to the performers.

It felt like they were not inferior to the band of the only theater in the city, even when they were marching.

"Here I am, here I am. It's worth it that I spent nine silver coins to reserve a seat half a month in advance."

An Yasi was particularly excited.

Nine silver coins for a window seat. If Uncle Kernler hears you, he will deduct all your living expenses for the next six months...

However, Ina was just complaining in her heart, because she was the direct beneficiary. Without the invitation from this good friend, she would not have received such treatment.

She still understands the principle of not saying excessive things after eating other people's food.

Then, Ina turned her attention back to the huge team.

This time, she couldn't look away.

The white-haired girl's eyes widened, and shock could not be concealed in her green pupils.

"What's wrong?" An Ya Si asked in confusion when she noticed her friend had stopped, and at the same time looked in the direction the girl was looking.

Passing through the band, holding flags and dressed in fancy clothes.

I saw three heavy cavalrymen marching abreast, riding on tall and majestic horses.

They were divided into four rows, front and back, surrounding an exquisite and luxurious double-decker carriage.

In the sunlight, the purple-red wood soaked in wood wax oil reflects unexpectedly dark light.

The relief carvings and gold and silver ornaments covering half of the carriage are elegant and exquisite.

Those should have been nailed on, but there is no trace of them from the surface. They are like the beautiful fur of animals, growing there naturally, a work of art that is so exquisite.

"Just the materials that have been exposed to the wind and rain outside are worth hundreds of gold coins, right?"

As the daughter of a businessman, Anya Si gave a price subconsciously.

I also know that the value of the interior of such a thing is probably several times more than this price.

For example, inviting top designers to design it, inlaying gems, using Warcraft fur as carpets, engraving magic circles, and placing dozens of bottles of wine that are hundreds of years old.

The nobles, especially the top figures in the kingdom, like this the most.

A carriage worth thousands of gold coins, and the eye-catching and famous pattern on the front of the carriage, which is an image of a sword blade inserted into the ground and a roc with its wings spread out.

An Yasi didn't even have to guess who was sitting inside.

"That's the princess's carriage."

She tried her best to act as if she didn't care in front of Ina, but she still couldn't help revealing longing in the corner of her eyes.

However, the points of attention of the two are obviously different.

In fact, Ina hadn't noticed the carriage following closely behind.

In other words, it was not until An Yasi's speech that she came back to her senses from her brief surprise.

An Yasi, who has less exposure and is not a professional or magician, may not be moved.

But Ina knew what was happening before her and how shocking it was.

The thick, silver-white armor and the half-man-high spear were not decorated for beauty or with fancy graphics.

That is the independent energy supply of magic crystals or high-quality magic ores.

The magic circles and inscriptions were designed, tested, and carved with great effort by outstanding magicians and top craftsmen who are far beyond the reach of Ina today.

A total of twenty-four sets of complete magical weapons!

And twenty-four bronze-ranked knights of matching mid-rank or above.

In the absence of magical artillery and spell bombardment, this well-trained force would be a nightmare to mortal armies when it appeared on any battlefield.

A team of fifty elite professionals with similar weapons.

It can tear a hole in a 10,000-man army with 2,000 cavalry and wipe out more than 20% of the soldiers.

This is what Rick told her during a casual chat.

Ina used to be skeptical.

At this moment, she couldn't help but believe the truth implied in these words.

Ina's expression changed slightly as the knight's undisguised fighting spirit was revealed.

She knew such a knight, even just one, even without any other magic items or scrolls.

She has no chance of winning against him.

Only then did Ina really start to think about "Princess", this ordinary title that was mentioned countless times in literary records and novels.

How transcendent is it in reality...

Surrounded by power, the nobles high above had no choice but to bow their heads and spontaneously mobilize the power of the city to welcome and clear the way for them.

She couldn't help but want to use her magic eyes to look through the carriage and take a closer look at the princess who had not yet appeared.

However, just as the magic power was coupled and the magic circle began to condense in Ina's eyes.

Suddenly she felt a light tap on the head.

"Don't try to use magic to observe members of the royal family, little one." A gentle voice came from the side.

"Strengthen your body's perception. The people in charge of the escort on the car, um... they are particularly sensitive to this."

Ina turned her head away, and a man in a black robe was reflected in her pupils.

A warm, ever-calm smile hangs on his face like a symbol.

"What? It's Uncle Shu Xi."

When she realized the visitor was an acquaintance, Ina withdrew her guarded gaze. She was almost frightened to death by the previous incident.

"Don't hit someone on the head suddenly. What if the magic backfires?"

Ina rubbed her head, feeling quite resentful.

"I consider myself the best student who has been promoted to a senior magician. I don't think she will be backfired by a third-level spell because of some trivial matter."

"Besides, if I don't do this, I'm afraid you will have to drink your afternoon tea in the interrogation room."

The kind that is drunk with a few upper bronze-rank knights... Shu Xi silently added in his mind.

It would be much easier to stop it now than to go there and rescue Ina.

"Shu Xi? Mr. Shu Xi, the president of the Wayne branch guild?!"

Anya Si asked nervously.

"Yes, good morning, another cute little one."

After a little consideration, Shu Xi chose the same name as Ina and greeted the unfamiliar girl.

Because he was holding something in his hands, he could only lower his hat and nod to show politeness.
