There is an inconspicuous small village near the mountains between the cities of Mangra and Bakerd. It seems very secluded because it is not on the main traffic road. However, the people in the village live too poorly. The crops grown every year will be quickly bought by merchants from the two cities as soon as they are transported to the main road. Not to mention that there are many monsters living in the mountains covered with woods. From time to time, it can attract certain special people to come here, such as adventurers who seek wealth, mercenaries who receive tasks, and nobles who hunt monsters to exercise or prove their bravery.

Overall, it should be a place with abundant natural resources but not fully developed.

Winter is not a good season for hunting. Only those who pursue the ultimate like to play the survival game of spending days in the cold to track prey, observe each other, set traps, and finally launch a fatal blow. Therefore, there are no outsiders in the quiet village now, and the villagers have retreated back to their homes to avoid the cold. Only a circle of wooden fences outside to prevent wild beasts or small monsters from invading and stealing poultry and livestock creaking in the wind.

It is approaching midnight. Logically speaking, there should be no more people on the road during this season. Even the most serious, most obscene, most perverted and most eccentric flower picking thief in the world will have to go home to drink water, take medicine and drill into bed because he has been hiding on the balcony outside the beautiful woman's room for a long time. However, on the rugged path not far from the village, there were two suspicious elements who were wrapped in cloaks and couldn't even see their figures clearly.

The two staggered, one tall and one short, the tall one leaned on a staff that could be seen everywhere in their hands. The short one was a small one-handed sword hanging around their waists, which looked like an adventurer.

But in fact, these two are the super-heavy wanted criminals that the Birea Empire has been willing to use all its strength to swear to find them. The time when the two officially began to be wanted is... tonight.

That's right. These two people are the Queen of the Pireya Empire who sneaked out of the imperial capital and the Princess of the Roland Empire who came to "political asylum" again as usual.

"I said, Alicia." Sofia, who was inactive in speaking, stopped and said with a slightly coquettish attitude, "Can you take a break? I can't walk anymore. And why do you choose to take such a remote and difficult path?"

Alicia turned around and patted her gently on the pink princess' buttocks, which made her feel coquettish and said, "Persis a little longer, you will see the village soon. Then you can rest in the hotel any time you want. But it's really hard. I miss the days when countless cute girls were surrounded by you."

"You are a rich second-generation who is famous but rich but can't stand you everywhere and robs your sister Long Aotian... I mean, I mean, a rich second-generation who has been silent and has to live on the streets after being upset by many people!?"

"Ahaha, what a sharp complaint." Alicia scratched her head and laughed. "Ah, there is nothing I can do about it. Who makes my mental power still in an unstable state and can't summon senior Ma Mei to help. Nor can I summon Bai Ya Black Flame and others to be mounts, otherwise it wouldn't be so troublesome. Alas, Icarus and Luo Ye were borrowed by the expedition fleet, Sister Xiaonan and the idiot Fran are running on the mission, and Mercury Lamp is responsible for staying to cover our sneak run. There is no help around me and suddenly I feel so uncomfortable."

Sofia turned her head and looked at the petite girl in front of her and asked with concern: "Why? Are you showing no sign of recovery in your symptoms?"

Alicia smiled bitterly and shook her head and sighed, "Don't mention it. Every time I want to use my mental power, I always feel like something is messing around in my head. It's okay to pick up items from the bracelet, but I can barely get through it; but it's not possible to summon it. Just like the headband of the shaking master and the shaking servant who wear some kind of decoration on the forehead, it is actually a voice-controlled contraction device, it can pull out all the brains. In fact, I can't even use many advanced spells at the moment, and I'm completely authentic, a soft girl with a light body and a soft body that is easy to knock down. Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo

The pink princess did not answer, but looked at the one-handed sword on the girl's waist with often contempt.

"What does your incredibly ecstatic look mean?"

"It's nothing. I just think that although a cute girl with a strong combat power loses her strength and becomes an ordinary girl, it's not right for you to pretend to be pitiful like this."

"Wulu race!!"

Sophia reached out and pressed the head of Alicia, who was eager to pounce on and bite, and said seriously: "Stop making trouble. Haven't you explained to me the reason why you want to leave this place where no bird lays eggs?"

Alicia sorted out her hood so that it could cover up more cold air, and exhaled a white mist from her mouth and said, "Ilia and Maoer will return to Barker from around 4:00 to 5:00 tomorrow afternoon. We must arrive in advance without being found by the Knights to surprise them. The road with people is obviously not an ideal choice, and the other party will definitely set up levels along the way. However, this small village is very suitable, not to mention the remote location, just climb over the mountain behind it, the city of Barkerder is close to you."

"So that's it." The pink princess nodded with clarity, "Then Alicia, how did you know when Ilia and the others will return to their hometown tomorrow?"

"Oh, I just need to ask Sister Xiaoan to help investigate this kind of thing, right?" The girl patted her slightly raised breasts and said in a proud tone, "We are the queen of the Birea Empire and the Speaker of the Western Continental Unification Alliance. It's no big deal to use power in a little privately, right?"

"Since you have such an identity and status that is admired by thousands of people, you can go to the Knights' guards to have a fair and open meeting with your little lover and spend the New Year together! What's going to do when you go on a secret journey in the mountains and forests like a wanted criminal? Is it really okay to openly use your power without any worries? "

Alicea curled her lips unhappily when she heard this: "It will be the right way to complain about it seriously and meticulously and mercilessly, but it will grow wrinkles in advance. At this time, choosing to ignore it or simply say 'I don't know how to complain'."

"I'm sorry that I didn't master the essence of complaints like you!"

Ignoring the pink princess who almost went crazy without regard for her image. Alicia suddenly stretched out her hand and pointed to the faint lights shining in the distance and said excitedly: "Look, the village is there!"

Seeing this, Sophia immediately showed joy: "It's great, I'm still worried that I'll sleep in the wild tonight."

"Because the weather was too cold, the two of them squeezed into the same sleeping bag to keep each other warm and do some love exercises that increase heat... It seems to be very good. Nah, Sister Sophia, let's find a place to camp nearby?"

"You've got enough..."

I'm a dividing line

Thin snowflakes fell down from the clouds above, embellishing this quiet little village more beautiful and peacefully. The strange footsteps of the two girls alarmed the dogs of a certain family, and the fierce barking spread far away at night.

"Ah, here." Alicia said, pointing to the two-story building in front of her.

Not far from the entrance of the village, the two found a hotel. What was more surprising was that although it was almost midnight, the lights in the store were still on. The lights that the girls saw just now were also emitted from here.

After the two of them gently pushed open the door and walked in, a 50-year-old man who was dozing off with his cheeks on the bar, who was dozing off with his cheeks on the bar, was immediately awakened by the doorbell and said subconsciously: "Oh. You guys are finally back... Uh, it turns out that's not. Sorry, the two girls, I thought it was the adventurers team that went up the mountain in the evening before."

Alicia untied her cloak and patted the snow on it and folded it and said, "Oh, I didn't expect that someone would go up the mountain to hunt in the middle of the winter. Are they going to catch the legendary snow rabbit? Well, no matter what our affairs are, boss. Is there a guest room... Oh, boss? Boss? Uncle Oujisang?"

The uncle whose eyes were almost falling out finally came back to his senses after the blonde girl's repeated questions, and hurriedly scratched his head and smiled, "Sorry, because you are too beautiful, you will be fascinated by accident."

Sophia, who also put away her cloak, took out the folding fan as her signature and opened it and half-covered her mouth and smiled, "Hehe, you are so acclaimed. But the boss is so patient that he has been waiting for the guests who went out in the evening until now. Since they are going up the mountain to hunt, they might just spend the night on it. You don't need this."

Unexpectedly, the uncle shook his head and said, "If I were to go up the mountain to hunt, I would indeed close the door early and rest as this lady said, but the truth is not the case. I believe the two should know. Some time ago, the alliance and the ghost empire that attempted to invade ours fought a battle at sea. Although they won, there were inevitably casualties. Two children from two families in the village were honorably killed in battle. This is a war, and everyone can only choose to accept it even though they are very sad. Moreover, the pension paid by the empire is also very considerable, enough for the two families to live a good life from now on."

"Can someone deduct the pension in the middle?" Alicia's pretty face suddenly became gloomy and cold. Her powerful aura was so shocked that even the burning flames in the fireplace next to her could not help but darken. It was not until Sophia quietly pulled the corner of the little queen's clothes behind her, which made her realize that something was wrong, and she turned back to the beautiful, cute, lively and naughty girl without leaving any trace.

Is it an hallucination just now? The uncle couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, and glanced at the smiling blonde girl in confusion and continued: "No, the pensions of both families have been paid in full. But the problem is here, because the amount of the money is too large, which has attracted the attention of some evil people. Just this afternoon, they took the children of the two families into the mountains as hostages and asked for the ransom. The adventurers team who were just passing by and preparing to rest for a night in this night heard about this, ran up the mountain to save the people. It was just..."

"It's just that I'm probably trapped myself, right?" Alicia shook her head helplessly and turned to Sophia, shrugging her shoulders, "It seems that God is destined to let us rest. Can you accompany us to have a night battle to sneak into the mountains?"

"Happiness is coming."

When the uncle heard this, he was so anxious that he leaned forward from the bar: "Please, please wait a moment, two beautiful girls. It's too dangerous for you to do this. It's simply a sending sheep into the tiger's mouth! And there's no need for you to take the initiative to get involved in this matter, right?"

"Of course it's necessary, uncle." Alicia, who had pulled the door halfway, stopped and said without looking back, "or should be said. This is my duty."

Leaving the uncle with an inexplicable expression of worry and regret, the girls strode out of the hotel.

"What do you think?" Sophia asked while wearing a cloak, "Is it just a simple villain extorting money?"

"It's hard to say until you meet the Lord." Alicia pulled the hood on her cloak and shrank her neck, "I'd love if it was really as simple as you said."

Sophia looked up at the dark mountains and murmured softly: "Can you leave the Adventurers team on the mountain and cannot return to the city? The method they used would not be to treat them with good wine and meat. The truly powerful armed thieves are all caravans, and it is impossible to look at poor civilians, not to mention that they never attack civilians. And for those guys who do everything they can to kill, kidnapping hostages is too troublesome. Alicia. The water here is very deep."

"I know, otherwise I wouldn't have taken the initiative to go and find out what happened." Alicia said, gritting her teeth and taking out two strange-shaped helmets from the bracelet and handing one of them to Sofia's hand. "Putting this on after entering the forest will be of great help."

The pink princess looked down at the items in her hand and said strangely: "Alishiya, what the hell is this?"

"A magical prop that allows you to peek at the welfare scene of a girl in the opposite room taking off her clothes before entering the bathroom in the dark night when you reach out."

“…Can I resell it to Li Huayin?”

"turn down!"

I'm a dividing line

The fallen leaves in the deep mountains have not yet turned into soil. Covering them and soil on the body can not only achieve a good warmth effect, but also perform very perfect camouflage.

Sun Xiang, Chaxi, Yuege and two other twin warriors have been hiding in this woods for several hours.

Bad guys holding torches and various weapons were searching in groups around the neighborhood. They were very likely to stop until they were pulled out and removed. In fact, a miserable thief in this team was already caught and dropped.

Don't ask me why the thief who should have run the fastest was caught. You should know that there is a kind of person in this world: they always boast about themselves as powerful, and in ordinary battles, they emphasize their presence while playing soy sauce. Over time, everyone habitually thinks that he is indeed amazing. However, once it is time to decide the key battle that determines the life and death of the entire team, these people are often the first bento...

It was also thanks to this half-jealous thief who was clearing the way forward that Sun Xiang and the others were ambushed by the enemy. If it weren't for the natural and seamless cooperation between the two twin soldiers, everyone would probably not have escaped.

But the other party obviously did not intend to let them go. He immediately organized a large number of people to search nearby. As a last resort, the five people could only hide in this woods. He just hoped to find an opportunity to sneak out until dark. Unfortunately, that opportunity never came.

"I'm sorry, because I was passionate about my passionate words and wanted to help." After the searcher walked away, Sun Xiang whispered to his teammates lying around, "I'm so sorry!"

"Nothing, how can you blame you? We all decided to come together." The twin brother turned his head and grinned at the teenager, "I will mention it even if you don't say it. I can't stand what those guys do at all!"

"I didn't expect that we were chased and beaten in the end." My brother sighed calmly and said, "What kind of world is this? Has the thieves started to attack ordinary civilians?"

Trying to ignore the exact same faces of the brothers and the muscle-like figure, Chaxiyao only relies on the braids on his hair to distinguish each other's appearance, he murmured at the stars of fire in the distance, "It seems that it's not right. The other party's scale is too large, and it doesn't look like a small evil group that is also jealous of the pensions of civilian families. This is probably the organization of the Dark Empire lurking on the Western Continent, but what is the purpose of the other party doing this?"

"Someone is here!" Yue Ge suddenly shook his ear twice and reminded.

Everyone hurriedly held their breath and stopped talking. Then a team of professionals with obvious mental outlook and those who had previously stopped in front of the woods. The leader turned out to be a petite and beautiful girl with long brown hair. Judging from her outfit wearing soft armor and two one-handed swords, she should be an agile warrior.

After a whistle, the teams searching nearby gathered in front of the girl.

"How, have you found those gophers?" The girl's voice was very beautiful, but her tone and lines were so gloomy that it made people shudder. "I just felt a little bored, but I didn't expect someone to come to the door on his own initiative. I can't wait to love them well and appreciate their struggling figures and twisted faces in pain. This is the greatest joy of life. Don't you think this is the case?"

The subordinates nodded desperately in a cold sweat.

"Very good. So, where are they? If you haven't found it yet, you will be punished?"
