10 min read2,608 words
In April, there is a gentle sea breeze blowing on the streets of Hopeland, and
the soothing sound of waves from afar can be heard from time to time.
After the night rain, there are still a small amount of water marks on the
street. The gray stone bricks gradually become white and delicate in the sun,
and they have a fresh feeling in the wind.
On the street next to the gate of the Calites Chamber of Commerce, Lorrain
Hill was carrying a vine wooden box to say goodbye to the people behind him.
Today, she is wearing a light white dress with a thin blue belt on the waist
and fine hollow floral ornaments on the corners. Beside her is Eidolon dressed
in refreshing summer clothes.
"Just send it here, I told everyone yesterday, no fanfare." Looking at Chelsea
behind her and a dozen past acquaintances, the girl waved her hand, her light
gold hair fluttered from time to time, brushing over the softness. cheek.
"Okay, Miss." Seeing this, Chelsea also stood still, holding his footsteps,
with his arms around his waist and saluting everyone.
"See you later, everyone."
Speaking of Lorrain Hill holding the Eidolon next to him, the two leaped
lightly, and then rose towards the blue sky, slowly turning into small black
spots, and disappearing into the clouds.
Flying in the sky blown by the sea breeze, the two overlooked below, and the
panoramic view of Hopelander gradually came into view. The orange-red tiled
roofs, matched with white walls, rows of houses are arranged in a staggered
manner on both sides of the street. The city hugs the ocean like a crescent.
Ships with white sails are docked in the port, and occasionally a few iron-
clad ships with black smoke come in and out, bringing a bit of excitement and
noise.
"A little bit reluctant." Eidolon flew beside Lorrain Hill, talking about his
thoughts when he left.
"Did you find a good playmate?" Lorrain Hill smiled and looked at the little
guy beside him.
"Well, it's fun to play games with Lan Lier at Kazuno's house. She will have a
lot of fun things." Speaking of Lan Lier's gizmos and games, Eidolon's eyes
seemed to appear as small stars.
"But Lan Lier can't accompany you lately. Teacher Felia asked her and Lingxin
to perform with the group." The girl said of the arrangements made by Teacher
Felia recently. Lan Lier is currently the entourage alchemist of the Fenghua
Opera Troupe, who is responsible for preparing the musical alchemy props in
the team. Sometimes she has to learn to perform on stage and learn how to
operate the opera troupe when she takes the time, but some are busy.
"So, come back next time. Actually, I'm also very curious about Lan Lier's
opera troupe, because it's quite interesting." Ye Ling said seriously.
"Well, I will be back. But now, let's go home first."
As the two of them rose higher and higher, Hopelander slowly disappeared from
view. At this time, Lorrain Hill no longer restrained himself. Holding
Eidolon's wrist with one hand, the two of them grasped tightly, and then began
to urge. One's own power about wind and atmosphere.
The speed of the two people in the high altitude is getting faster and faster,
and everything in their vision begins to blur. They surpass the speed of sound
and are close to the limit, like shining meteors, across the clear blue sky,
sailing northward, thousands of mountains. The water passed in an instant.
The earth turned underneath, and the sun shifted in the sky, and when it was
able to reach the center, the two finally reached the sky above Soland, the
capital of Crancia.
The verdant and light green field exudes a fresh and lively breath in the sun.
The fragrance of the grass is accompanied by the fragrance of flowers and
grass seeds drifting in the wind. When the two slowly fall, you can feel a
little dandelion brushing the calf. .
The toes lightly stepped on the hillside, bending some blades of grass, the
little heat accumulated at noon spread to the skin of the legs in the grass,
and some green grasshoppers also flee from the feet in fright.
The two stood on the hillside of the wilderness on the outskirts of Soland,
looking at the magnificent giant city of Crancia, the towering white walls
came into view.
Compared with the scene in the girl’s memory, Solander’s scale has now more
than doubled. The white city walls pierce the sky like a castle fortress. The
smooth walls occasionally protrude round high towers, guarding them like
guards. This city.
Under the city wall, there are wide avenues that spread out from the city.
These avenues are paved with fine gravel, which are dry and hot in the sun.
city.
Surrounding Soland is a big river called Jinyue River. More than a hundred
years ago, the west wind dug a canal that runs through the north and the
south, rejuvenating the country, and the royal family can also collect a lot
of taxes through the canal, and countless golds follow it. The river entered
Soland and was stored in the palace of the royal family. And because the river
was shaped like a crescent moon and surrounded Soland, everyone finally called
it the Golden Moon River, and they gradually forgot its past name.
Today, this big river is still prosperous, and long ships transported the
cargo that sunk the ship's side, constantly sailing into the harbor in the
city, unloading these wooden boxes, and then taking away some other prepared
cargo, like a long dragon.
Looking at the noisy and prosperous scenery, Ye Ling couldn't help but open
his mouth in surprise.
"It's a big city, it feels more lively than Titaniya." And when she exclaimed,
a black steel train whizzed through the wilderness, and entered the city with
a long whistling sound.
"Welcome to the capital, Solander." Lorrain Hill turned his body to welcome
Eidolon.
Immediately the two leapt down from the hillside and walked towards this
magnificent giant city.
Under the heavy city wall, the city gate is as long as a cave, towering and
empty. Walking below can feel the wind blowing behind you, and hear a little
echo. Following the enthusiastic crowd, the two walked into this Crancia city
together.
Passing through the city gate, the bustling city shining directly in the sun
crowded into the two people's field of vision, filling it up. Light green,
bright blue, berry red, and empty blue roofs are leaping on both sides of the
street. Various shops are dazzling, dressed in different styles, people of
different races walk through this street, and there are enthusiastic shouts
everywhere.
Seasonal fruits, handicrafts, snacks and barbecues, weapons and swords, life
tools, alchemy creations, etc. from all over Crancia, there are people who
stop and watch almost every stall. Here, you can find almost all the
commodities you can think of. The prosperous and diverse market attracts
travelers and businessmen from all over the north and south. They stay here,
looking for things they are interested in and have never seen.
Seeing so many pedestrians, Lorrain Hill and Eidolon also stood a little
closer, and the two followed the crowd into the street, curiously looking at
the things on both sides.
An orc wearing a short-sleeved leather jacket walked past the two of them
carrying a heavy wooden barrel. The two-meter-high body was like a hill,
shielding the sun from the sun, and it smelled of sweat.
"Lime, the beer you want is here." He came to a tavern and shouted openly. His
voice was like a lion roar, loud and trembling, which made many passersby's
legs weak.
"Okay, I am here."
There was a response from the tavern, and soon a thin human man opened the
door and walked out.
"Let’s put it to the back first. Tonight, there are a lot of guests who have
reserved a place. It is estimated that it will consume almost all night." He
skillfully led the lionmane orc towards the back door of the tavern and said
hello, seemingly right. Such a roaring voice is used to it.
"Hey, is Uncle Figue here today? Have you brought the kind of orange red wine
I said before." A girl with rabbit ears in a black and white vest uniform also
walked out, seeing that the dress seemed to be a shop The bartender and
bartender here.
"Ah, I'm sorry, that kind of fruit wine is sold out. It seems to be very hot
recently, and many people have ordered it, and it is full." The lionmane orc
rubbed his head in embarrassment, and his thick hand was like a stone,
covering it. The sun in front of the girl with rabbit ears.
"Hey, I've said it before. Uncle Feige can't let the brewery build more?"
Looking up at the strong orc in front of her, the rabbit-eared girl questioned
with her hands on her waist, as clear as a red jade. The pupils of the eyes,
coupled with the pair of snow-white rabbit ears, are indescribably cute.
"Well, the clerk said that we will limit alcohol recently, because there are
too many drunk people and our winery has also been notified." He turned his
head a little embarrassed, and replied defensively.
"Well, it's rare for business to be good." After knowing that it would be
useless to complain, the bunny-eared girl turned her back, waved her hand, and
ignored the lionmane orc.
"Well, I heard that a batch of ice-brewed grape wine has been shipped from
Sanctuary recently. Maybe I can help you ask." Seeing the rabbit-eared girl
leaving, the lionmane orc wanted to stay again. Speaking of another idea.
"Hey, really?" Upon hearing the news, the rabbit-eared girl turned her head
again and jumped to the lion's mane orc.
"Really." Then the two exchanged again.
Looking at the two people on the street, Ye Ling showed a curious look in his
pupils.
"They get along so well, and it feels so natural. When I was in school, didn't
those orc classmates say that human society is hard to stay in? Many places
bullied and rejected them."
"Well, maybe it's different in Crancia." Lorrainhill shook his finger
slightly, and then went on walking with Eidolon.
Compared to Titania, who is elegant but inclined to the classical aristocratic
style, Solande looks more lifelike, and the colors are richer and brighter.
Many store plaques along the street are painted with light-colored paint on
dark brown wooden boards, which are very bright and eye-catching.
"Scent of Glazed Glass" perfume shop, "Ice Fire Cube" alchemy shop, "Oriental
Fire" restaurant, "Elf Seven Brews" store specializing in elven beverages,
"North Wind" fur clothing store, "Blooming Spike" grain store , "Bingche"
fruit and vegetable shop, etc.
Their decoration styles are different, there is a combination of fantasy and
alchemy, which is rare in other parts of the mainland.
Walking in the street, Lorrain Hill and Eidolon could still see many students
in neat uniforms. Some of them took advantage of the noon break to buy things,
or eat, and talk about things in the college. From the appearance point of
view, they also come from different regions. Some are northern orcs with
curved horns or animal ears, some are residents of the southern coast with
slightly different brown accents, and some are from the end of the western
desert. Haiya opened two small mouths behind the student uniform, revealing a
pair of black and white wings.
Although they originally came from different places, they didn't care about
each other's different races or identities when they spoke. They were very
casual and harmonious, and occasionally joked and made innocent jokes.
"It feels really good." Seeing this, Ye Ling nodded his head, saying it was
great.
"Sister Lorland is amazing, hum."
"Why said my name again." Walking down the street, Lorrain Hill asked the
little guy next to him curiously.
"Of course it's Sister Lorraine who is amazing, so there is such a beautiful
scene." She praised Lorraine Hill, as if she was talking about herself, with
an indescribable joy.
"I've known it a long time ago, Sister Lorraine will be great, hehe." Ye Ling
shook his body triumphantly, and almost stood in the middle of the road and
announced loudly.
In response, Lorrain Hill smiled and shook his head.
"In fact, everyone did it together. Many things can't be done by me alone."
She raised her head and looked at the floating clouds in the sky, the clear
sky.
"During my absence, everyone has been moving in the direction of their
dreams."
"But, however, it must be Sister Lorland's great contribution, because there
is one, and everything behind is possible." Ye Ling insisted on his thoughts.
"Oh, okay, okay, this is up to you." As Lorrain Hill said, he took Eidolon and
walked towards the center of the city.
Passing through the lively market, walking through the bustling commercial
street, to the square in the center of Solander, a square monument stands in
the square, and several soldiers stand upright around it.
The pan-blue stone tablets are engraved with team numbers, hero names, and
difficult battles to commemorate those who died in independence, fighting the
Frost Alliance, and resisting the imperial invasion and deeds.
Under this memorial stone, there are bunches of flowers, which seem to have
been left by travelers here. Even if Lorrain Hill and Eidolon approach, you
can see scattered pedestrians stopping again and praying in a low voice.
After stopping for a while, Lorrain Hill also bought a pale bouquet and placed
it gently under the stone tablet, closing his eyes and praying.
After a while, the two people slowly left here and walked towards the palace
in the north of the square.
Now this is no longer the palace of the Westwind royal family, but has been
transformed into the political center of Crancia. There are countless people
wearing white robes and blue gold badges entering and exiting. They are
officials and affairs officers belonging to the country, assisting Dealing
with all kinds of matters in this huge country.
"Sister Lorrain~www.mtlnovel.com~Look!"
Eidolon pointed to the hillside behind the palace, and a white and beautiful
statue stood in it. It was a statue of a girl with three pairs of wings on her
back. She is wearing a long dress with open and slightly curved wings, which
seems to be blocking the rain from the sky. One hand is holding a lantern high
and looking at the distant sky, the other hand is slightly lifted back, and
her slender fingers are stretched. .
And under her, a group of statues of little figures of different shapes walked
forward along the arc of the skirt, which was like a raised mountain road,
leading them to the direction that the bright lamp pointed.
The images of these villains come from different races, among them are orcs
with long horns, thin humans, wing races with wings on their backs, men and
women with rabbit ears, and their clothes and holdings also represent
different things. Occupation, there are scholars wearing long robes and
holding scrolls, warriors wearing long swords and armors, sailors wearing
sailing hats and sextants, farmers holding hoes, and workers holding wrenches
and shovel. , There are old people, children and so on. Hundreds of small
figures gathered on the arc of this beautiful skirt, climbing forward, step by
step approaching the front of the lantern.
This is Solander and the largest statue in Crancia. Its name is ‘Lorrain Hill
with Lantern’.
