Not a Witch

She said it was a few, but after a little scrutiny, Jiena knew that there were no less than ten of them.
"You're welcome, just take it. You're still young and growing up. Don't go hungry on the way. You've been helping these days. We didn't pay you anything, just these apples."
"Thank you, auntie. In fact, I am also repaying the caravan for saving me..." Jena wanted to explain.
"I know, I know. At that time, they asked if there was a doctor in the village. But one size counts for one size. You can accept these, and you don't need to classify them so clearly."
Seeing this, Jena couldn't be more polite, and took the bag of apples wrapped in a bundle.
"Then thank you, auntie." She bowed her head slightly in thanks, and then said goodbye.
With her long knife and package, Jiena walked out of the mountain village.
She didn't go to Red Gravel City in the east and return to school by airship, but chose the north, which is the direction of the Black Rock Principality.
Just now she told Sophie that she was going back to school, just to reassure her. In fact, she had already made up her mind to return to her hometown.
She wanted to find a group of like-minded people to change the status quo of the Principality of Black Rock.
Although returning to school, learning knowledge and improving strength is the best solution in the eyes of the public.
But time waits for no one. If she waits until she officially completes her studies, it may be 3-4 years later, and by that time, the Black Rock Principality may not have been devastated and covered with bruises.
Moreover, by that time, there might be an absolute ruler in Heiyan, and it will be even more difficult to change it when it is down.Today's chaos, in fact, also represents more opportunities.
During this period of time in this small mountain village, she also came into contact with a lot of promotional materials from the founding of Clancia.Ned County is the origin of the West Wind Revolution. Many people in its territory participated in the battle a few years ago, and various brochures and materials are still preserved to this day.
After reading these, Jena also had a lot of ideas, which also gave her some confidence.
A great cause is difficult to achieve overnight, but if you are afraid to move forward because of this, you will never reach the other shore.
Now she is about to start the most difficult first step.
----------
After the establishment of the military academy in Nieder County, the first batch of trainees began to train, and various supporting facilities and teachers were gradually improved.
After inspecting several times and feeling that he was on the right track, Lorraine Hill was also preparing to set off again. Following the caravan westward, he went to the border province of Clancia near the grassland, and then went to Solan County, which directly leads to the kingdom of the sanctuary. .
After coming into contact with the ruins of the Twilight Era, she became more and more curious about the origins of the angels.What is the origin of these unusual beings, and what is their connection with the major organizations at the end of the Twilight Era.
Why do I have such a high affinity for the angel sequence? Is my body in this world a creation of the gods or a legacy of the twilight era?She desperately wants to know all this.
Where did I come from.
The Tinder Project is just a product of the early twilight era, when human beings were not confident, why it has been kept, and in the notice left in the system, which ancient organization did the committee represented by the seven virtues belong to? What role did it play.
Everything attracts this silver-haired girl to that strange country.
-------
"Are you leaving?"
In a hut downstairs of the barracks, the two sat opposite each other, and there was only one unlit candlestick on the table in the middle.
"Yes."
Today's Lorraine Hill is wearing a long robe with a gray background and silver trim, a little hair is exposed under the hood, the slender waist is shown by the belt, and black stockings are above the knee on the calf.
When he was soliciting before, Bud thought that the girl was just a senior official of Crancia.
After entering the military academy for a period of time, Bard gradually understood the true identity of the girl in front of him, Lorraine Hill, the great sage of Crancia, the founder of the national belief, and the spiritual leader.
This really surprised him for a long time, but it could also explain many problems, why she was so knowledgeable, why she could improve her strength so easily, and invited him to join Crancia and so on.
"Although I invited you, I'm sorry that I can't give you any special treatment. You have to fight for and prove yourself."
"Take it as a test for you."
"However, as a credit to you for protecting the inner mountain village in Ned County in the past two years, I still have a gift for you."
Lorraine Hill smiled, and lifted a long wooden box from under the table and placed it on the table.
"open to take a look."
Bud carefully opened the lid of the wooden box, and a long lance appeared in his eyes.
[Red Maple Dragonlance] (Perfect Coral Grade): The main body is made of amber red maple wood, using the bones of ancient dragons as the gun core, engraved with extraordinary patterns.Comes with Dragon Power LV.4, Sunshine Spear LV.4, Toughness LV.4, and three advanced special effects.After being fully driven, the power will increase sharply, and the attack effect of high-temperature molten iron can be added. At the same time, the toughness of the gun body can resist most attacks below Sequence 8 and a little deformation.
The tip of the gun is made of triangular cones, and the middle of the gun body is thin to thick. There are flames and maple leaf-shaped patterns on the gun body near the handle. As the magic power flows, it emits an orange-red light like fire.
The handle and weight ball are made of keel, and the pattern is also engraved on it, which plays the role of decoration and anti-slip.
"Come on, Bud. I believe you will become a famous knight leader in the world."
Chapter 69 Frontier Bazaar
After staying in Ned County for a while, the Lagertes caravan set off again. They will turn from Ned County to the northern county of Clancia.
After nearly a week of journey, the team gradually drove out of Ned County, which is full of hills and forests, and came to the slightly open Cold Rock County.
The sky is gray, and there is a cool drizzle in the field of vision, and the rain is dotted with this verdant world like threads.
There are stretches of grassland on the land, but these grasslands are not connected together, but separated by high and low fault rocks.If you ride a horse and gallop along a straight line on this land, you will have to jump up or down a "step" every certain distance. cliff'.
The dark blue rocks are cold to the touch and very hard. Such a distinctive landform also gave this place the name 'Cold Rock County'.
Thanks to the special terrain here, defense lines and checkpoints can be easily set up to resist the impact of cavalry on the grassland.A long time ago, the human kingdom used this as a border line, isolating the Gufia Grassland in the north.
Subsequent human kingdoms also inherited this idea one after another, with few changes, until the later West Wind and Crancia.
Lorraine Hill was sitting in the carriage, with a brown shawl over the light red dress to protect against the slightly cold climate. She opened the curtains and looked at the grass of varying heights in the distance.
"Those ruins built of rocks, were they used to be beacon towers?"
A maid in a black and white uniform replied in the carriage: "Yes, miss, those are the watchtowers and beacon towers that West Wind built or repaired in his early years."
"The ancestors of my family used to fight with the king of the west wind. Due to the vast grassland and lack of water sources, the king of the west wind planned to build a fortress and a guard point here, and use it as a base to move northward."
"Not only that, but some military lords were also sealed here to strengthen the resistance and prepare for future conquests."
"It's a pity that the King of West Wind's health gradually deteriorated later. Coupled with the issue of successors, the Northern Expedition was put on hold until the throne was changed, powers were changed, and the country was stabilized again. It will be decades later."
"At this time, the monarch is no longer interested in the Northern Expedition, because the high-level nobles already know that there is not much wealth on the grassland, and ruling will consume a lot of manpower and resources, which is thankless."
"Instead of this, a large number of border commerce has sprung up, and the lords who used to entrust the border have also risen because of this, and our family is one of them."
"A large number of sentry towers and beacon towers have been idle or abandoned, and now hundreds of years have passed, most of them have become ruins overgrown with weeds."
"Haven't the tribes of orcs come south to invade?" Lorraine Hill lowered the curtains and looked at the maid in the car.
"Maybe there used to be, but from what I can remember and what I heard from my elders, there was no large-scale orc invasion."
"Why is that?" the girl asked curiously.
"Miss, the orcs don't have a unified country like us. There are many barriers and fights between their various tribes."
"The tribes near the south have made a lot of money by relying on trade routes, and they also have a lot of food. Naturally, they don't have the intention to spoil the relationship."
"It is the tribes in the north who are really hungry and warlike, but they are far away from those in the south. Coupled with the territorial concept of the tribes in the south, as a buffer, our border rarely invades."
"Then for so many years, has there been no capable person on the grassland to dominate the tribes and establish a kingdom of orcs?" Lorraine Hill recalled the history of the earth.
The Central Plains court often wooed and split up to maintain the dispersion of the grasslands and avoid going southward, but even so, there were times when they missed, so that they overturned several times later.
Although the West Wind is strong, not every generation is at its peak and strong, and there are times of weakness and civil strife.
"This...sorry, miss, I don't know the reason very well." The maid lowered her head apologetically. The reason is not so deep in thinking.
"It doesn't matter, we'll find out when we go and have a look."
Lorraine Hill comforted the maid, and turned her eyes out of the window again. In the corner of the field of vision, colorful figures and tents began to appear. At this time, the rain stopped, the sky gradually cleared up, and a few rays of sunlight passed through the clouds The gap in the sky shines on the green world after the rain.
As the convoy approached along the road, the sounds of loud shouts, conversations, and livestock honking gradually became clearer.
Lorraine Hill and Niya had been to the Gufia Grassland before, but that time they went directly to the tribes in the north, and they didn't know much about the southern border. This place seems to be a different scene.
Compared with the huge Gufia Grassland, there are not many tribes near the border of West Wind, but it is also extraordinarily moist.In this wild market, you can see many alien races with animal ears.
They are dressed in leather jackets, with colorful decorations on their bodies, and ears and horns on their heads in different shapes.Compared with humans, they are much stronger and stronger, and they are often a bit taller.
However, inside the market, it was these strong orcs who often bowed and bowed to people cautiously.
"I'm sorry, what do you think of this item? We have carefully selected and cleaned this batch of goods. There is no peculiar smell. Please take a look at it." An orc with leopard ears sold to a human businessman.
"Don't go, we can get it cheaper." The businessman shook his head and walked away casually.
"Excuse me, how do you sell these herbs? We can exchange them with fur..."
Lorraine Hill got out of the carriage, wearing a sun hat with flowers on her head, and a layer of veil covering her face, and accompanied by several riders, she walked into the open-air market.
With her strength, she naturally does not need protection, but in order to avoid unnecessary trouble and harassment, Mira still asked several riders to follow her.
These riders are wearing cloaks and armors, so they are not easy to provoke at first glance, and they can indeed act as a deterrent.
Compared with the orcs on the prairie, the rabbit-eared clan is much happier now, and they also look at these strange 'families' around them with a little curiosity.
The stalls and merchants in the market include humans and orcs, but humans sell different things, while orcs sell similar things.
An uncle with ox horns is shouting loudly, telling how good his fur is. There are several layers of thick fur piled up beside him. Colorful squares.
Lorraine Hill walked over and looked at the furs nearby. Most of them were cow and sheep leather, but there were also furs of foxes, wolves, deer and other animals.
"Can I touch it?" The girl's ethereal and clear voice came from under the veil.
"Yes, Miss, please take a look." The uncle with horns saw Lorraine Hill and his entourage, and knew that its origin was not simple, so he immediately brought some good-quality goods and put them on the On the table, let the girl choose.
Chapter 70 What is Righteousness
Before the rise of modern industry, fur was an important raw material for warm clothing.
When she was in Carites, another chamber of commerce presented Lorraine Hill with a special winter dress, which left a deep impression on her.
The furs placed on the table were smooth to the touch, and the furs looked relatively clean, with little dust and blood stains. It can be seen that the stall owner put a lot of thought into the processing of the materials.
After stroking and feeling a few pieces of fur with his hands, Lorraine Hill took his hands back.
"How about it, miss, are you satisfied?" The stall owner looked at the girl eagerly, thinking that this should be a customer, and he has to curry favor with her, maybe he can make a big deal .
Lorraine Hill shook his head, didn't say anything, but turned his head to other stalls, and looked at the fur in front of the stalls.
After that, she returned to the open space beside the market, where the caravan's carriages were parked.
Near noon, all the young people accompanying the caravan returned, and it was only then that Lorraine Hill appeared again.
