Chapter 467
The desert between the City of the Sun and the Garden City is called Farajese, because in ancient times, the river to the north of Farajese was called the Faraj River, just like the current Kohar River and Kehar River.
Harise.
However, as the Jin State unified the Shurima continent, map inspections and title unification work were in progress. The river in the upper reaches of the Kohali River, the Faraj River, was naturally included in the Kohari River.
However, the name Farajese has been retained.
At this time, Balliard and Anne were walking on the Farajese. To be precise, he was the only one walking.
"Ballyard, why is the sunshine here so dazzling? The sky is obviously full of sand."
Anne sat on the shoulders of the slightly larger Balliard... In order to allow Anne to stay quietly and not find things for him to do, Balliard had to increase his body proportionally. It turned out that
He is about 1.75 meters tall. Now, he is 2.5 meters tall, and his shoulders can already be used by Annie to sit on.
Although it was still a bit crowded, as long as Annie didn't move around and just sat on his shoulders, this level of space was enough.
"Because this is Shurima, the brilliance of the sun will cover everything during the day, so the yellow sand in the sky cannot block the brilliance of the sun, and the shadows on the land are the shade that the sun gives life to. Therefore, in Shurima
On this land, the temperature in the shadows is lower than normal, as if the sun deliberately did not dissipate excess heat into the shadowed area."
Balliard did not hold any parasol. This kind of thing is useless. In his hand, the parasol is impossible to work, because he is now Sima Yi, the person favored by the sun in this world line. If not
If he is a god himself, he is still the human incarnation of the sun.
With such an identity, no matter where Baliard goes, as long as it is daytime, there will be an unusual light shrouding everything. Look at the huge palace of the City of the Sun, which is a typical example. As long as it is daytime,
Then every corner will be very bright.
It can be said that the reason why Anne will be tortured by the sun now is Balliard, but Balliard will not tell Anne this.
"I don't like it here, can I go back? Although it is very bright in the palace, the feeling inside is warm, while here, it is hot."
Of course Annie is not afraid of heat. How could she, a magician with fire attributes, be afraid of heat? But not being afraid of heat and liking heat are two different things.
Moreover, what really made Annie unhappy was not the hot weather.
"Not yet. We are heading to Garden City now. If we walk there, it will still be a while. If you feel that this desert is too boring, I have prepared juice for you. Do you want to drink it?"
Yes, what made Anne irritated was the almost unchanged scene in Farajese, with flying yellow sand everywhere, which blocked their sight, making it blurry and invisible.
There is no other life here, no beasts, no birds, not even insects.
At Anne's age, there is no way she could bear such a boring and long journey.
"Give me."
Annie stretched out her hand, her intention was very clear, she wanted to drink juice.
"Okay, be good when you drink juice."
Balliard took out the juice and handed it to Annie. He really couldn't figure out why Annie always drank up her own juice so quickly if she liked drinking juice so much.
Shouldn't I get a bottle with expanded space to hold juice?
Why do you drink so fast?
However, Balliard did not want to ask this question.
"But... it's still so boring. It makes me very unhappy here."
Annie was holding the juice, and a small flame appeared from time to time in her other hand.
"Then do you want to come down and take a walk by yourself? Maybe if you come into contact with these things in person, you will have a different feeling... If you don't want to, forget it."
Balliard felt that he had come up with a bad idea. An ordinary child would have been blown away by such a big sandstorm. Although Anne is not an ordinary child, what if this girl wants to try the feeling of being blown away by a sandstorm?
Woolen cloth?
Balliard didn't want his time to be spent searching for the little girl who was lost in the desert... and was taken away by a sandstorm.
"I haven't said it yet! Valliard, bad!"
Anne originally planned to jump down and feel it. If it was no different from the usual sand, she didn't care and sat on Balliard.
However, before she could jump down, Balliard put a hand on her head to stop her from making a fuss.
"Yes, yes, I guess we still have a day or two to go, how do you want to pass the time? If there is no other way, you can sleep on my shoulder."
When is Anne the most obedient? Of course, Anne is the most obedient when she is asleep. She does not make noises, makes any strange requests, and holds up a fireball to demonstrate.
Therefore, when Balliard is about to encounter a bad situation, his first priority is to put Anne to sleep. As long as Anne falls asleep, there will be no crisis.
"don't want--"
But this time, Annie is not so easily fooled. The main reason is that the weather is really not suitable for sleeping. She can feel the sand blowing on her face anytime and anywhere, although the tough body of the extraordinary will not be affected by these wind and sand.
Breaking it, however, that dense feeling is like a swarm of ants jumping around on your face.
There is also the big sun above our head, which is emphasizing its presence all the time, and changes in brightness after a while.
How can she sleep in this situation? It's not like she's in the Freljord. She can still lie on a big bear, which is furry and more comfortable than her own bed, with cold wind? Anne adjusts her shield mode to the lowest, then
A little cold air doesn't matter.
But in the desert, can Annie's flaming shield still cool her down?
"Then... maybe we find a way to pass the time."
Balliard felt the breath of life and the breath of the undead a few kilometers ahead. He didn't know who they were. On the way to Garden City, they encountered a sandstorm. Some people died, while others seemed to be alive.
alive.
There must be something wrong with that part of the living population.
"What method? Do you want to play games? I have a game console here, we can play together."
Anne took out a game console and handed it to Valliard, and then she took out another game console herself.
"Game console...Okay, let's play this first."
It’s really hard to understand the little girl’s mind. Isn’t she just idle and bored with nothing to do? You’ve never thought of this way of passing time that you came up with before?
Balliard looked at the game console. As soon as he entered the game, it showed 8-3. He knew that Anne usually played games. She often played games and even forgot about them. Well... Balliard was speechless.
It can be said.
This is a desert, this is Farajese. There are sandstorms here for seven of the ten days. Such a long-lasting sandstorm is completely beyond the reach of ordinary people. They can persist for one day and use various means to build protective facilities.
You can give it a try, but food and water will be very serious problems.
Three days...don't even think about it. In fact, it is very difficult to survive until the second day, because this desert, under this weird sandstorm, is moving unconsciously. It was originally built on a suitable
The protective measures in the place were changed, and then it was flooded by yellow sand.
Death is the normal state of this place, and the corpses of the dead, as well as the things they left behind, will "surge" in the direction of Garden City under the action of the moving desert, until they stop at the edge of the foot of the mountain.
Based on the general situation in this world line, those who can survive this kind of sandstorm for a period of time are basically elite soldiers. They are the kind of elite soldiers who are protected by the national destiny. Prepare enough dried meat and water bags.
Soldiers protected by the national destiny will basically not die in sandstorms.
On the one hand, these soldiers will not be blown away when they lie on the ground. On the other hand, after discovering that their positions have changed, the soldiers can crawl forward and get themselves to a place where they will not be buried by the sand. Ordinary people,
There is no such strength.
Valliard currently has two considerations. One of them is that those people a few kilometers away are all soldiers, but their quality varies. Some are veterans and elites, while others are new recruits without enough experience.
Dealing with sandstorms.
From this point of view, those soldiers should be soldiers from Garden City, and there are not many in number. Therefore, Balliard can think that the purpose of this team leaving Garden City is to negotiate with him?
Calculating the time, it was almost time. Although the news from Garden City was lagging behind, at this time, the Marquis of Garden City had received the news that Balliard had occupied Zerima and Marrow Seal City.
Suddenly, there were two less princes from the three parties attacking the City of the Sun, so Garden City was naturally unable to support itself.
However, in this negotiation, are you planning to surrender to the new country and submit to the new country, or are you planning to obtain the permission of the new country and become the emperor of a country within a country?
Another consideration of Balliard's was a bit more involved. Judging from the location, the group of people should not have come from Nerimajie. The group of people was located near the road between Sun City and Garden City.
, where to come here, there are only two considerations, if it is not Garden City, then it is the City of the Sun.
Balliard did not let other people from the City of the Sun contact Garden City, so these living soldiers should be the soldiers of other princes who can come to the City of the Sun. Soldiers of other princes who can come to the City of the Sun at present
, that is, the ones in the eastern part of Shurima continent. Come up from the Kohali River and disembark at Wekaura.
After hiring a tour guide, this group of soldiers walked directly to Garden City without entering the City of the Sun. What else could the purpose of this group of people be? It was just to cause trouble for Valliard.
However, even though the royal family's private land in the east was divided among many aristocratic families, there were still many people who were loyal to the Jin State and the royal family.
After Balliard showed his power to be himself in Marrow Seal City, some nobles from aristocratic families who planned to stand on their own could not bear it anymore?
Doesn’t that mean that Valliard may face attacks from both the east and the west? Although there are people in the east who support the royal family and are loyal to the royal family, these people are too few, and few of them hold real power. If they are in
