"Then let's go."

Balliard gave the order, and Sun Shangxiang and others put away their things from their rooms and walked out, following Balliard outside the car.

Balliard looked around and found no trace of Ezreal. He had no choice but to initiate a call with Ezreal.

"Ezreal, where have you been?"

The next thing they have to do is explore the ruins, which is impossible without the guidance of experts.

"I'm in a cave. This cave is bigger than we thought. Come over quickly."

At this time, Ezreal had walked several hundred meters deeper into the cave, and darkness had surrounded him.

"Okay, if you encounter danger, run away immediately and call me. Don't be careless."

Balliard estimated that he had been delayed in the carriage for more than an hour. It was reasonable for Ezreal to be impatient.

However, this is not a big deal. As long as Ezreal doesn't kill himself, acting without authorization is not a bad thing. After all, this is not in the army.

They need to act separately in the wild. In order to obtain information from the outside world, they also need someone to investigate the intelligence. Ezreal seems to be very skilled in doing this, and he goes there without anyone reminding him.

"Come on, Annie, it's time to lead the way."

What Balliard actually meant was that Anne could get off his shoulders, walk around, and sit on his shoulders all the time, which made the four people think wildly for a long time.

In the carriage before, these people did not take the initiative to ask Anne to arrange a room for them. They probably saw Anne sitting on Balliard's shoulders and did not dare to bump into Anne at will.

Because Balliard is an emperor, an emperor, no matter how you say it, you can accommodate others, and Anne, the little girl sitting on Balliard's shoulder, must be an imperial princess-level figure no matter how you say it, and

He is also the most favored among the many royal children.

If they offended Balliard, they probably would have no chance of survival, but if they offended Anne, who knows if Balliard would kill them just to take care of Anne.

Moreover, Anne was using an unknown object to watch something somewhere. Maybe it was a kind of magical magic? If it disturbed Anne and had a bad impact on Anne, they would really have no choice but to

died.

"This way."

However, Anne just stretched out her hand on Balliard's shoulder to indicate the direction.

"...You four, don't fall behind. If you are within five meters of me, I will take action if you are in danger. If you exceed this distance, you will die."

Balliard spoke indifferently, but it did not make Sun Shangxiang and the four of them feel any resentment. This is what an emperor should look like. The instructions given must be obeyed, and those who violate the emperor's will should be sentenced to death.

Balliard casually talked about their fate, which only made them more in awe of Balliard.

"As commanded."

The distance of five meters is actually not short. Under normal circumstances, if several people walk together, the distance usually does not exceed thirty or forty centimeters. However, Balliard gave these people a distance of five meters, which can be considered as allowing them to walk together.

When you find something interesting on the roadside, you can go look at it, touch it, and enrich it.

own experiences and experiences.

Sun Shangxiang and others should actually be grateful to Balliard for his protection. After all, none of them, except Kevin, were from the New Kingdom, and Balliard had no obligation to protect them.

Being able to clearly explain to them the scope of protection is already a good way to protect their lives.

It's like a fence, warning these people where they are safe and where they are dangerous.

Can those who climbed over the fence and were attacked by wild beasts blame the people who set up the fence for not cleaning up the wild beasts? This is obviously not possible. On the one hand, whether the people who set up the fence have the ability to clean up those wild beasts is still a question, and on the other hand, it is still a question.

On the one hand, why do people need to clean up those beasts?

"Is that a rabbit? It's such a big one."

Anne tugged on Balliard's collar and waved her other arm excitedly.

"Want to eat it? Let's bake it tonight."

Balliard said that this rabbit is enough for Sun Shangxiang and four people to eat for a month. Although their food is usually purchased from the casting system with rune coins, they can obtain food on their own, so why consume rune coins?

Well, the rune coins were not blown by strong winds.

"What? If you want to sit on the back of that rabbit, it must be very comfortable."

Anne's face puffed out, like an angry pufferfish, and she was very dissatisfied with Balliard's remarks. How could such a cute rabbit be eaten, so fluffy?

"...Some things looked pretty and cute when they were small, but when they grow bigger, they look different. Are you sure you want to go up and take a look?"

Balliard estimated that even if he refused Anne's request, Anne would continue to make trouble for him until he agreed.

Simply, it would be better to agree to Annie directly. It is very troublesome to coax the little girl.

"Lovely things are lovely things and they won't change. Don't try to lie to me, Balliard."

Anne heard that Balliard was inclined to agree to her, so how could he give up this opportunity?

"Okay, okay, let's go up and take a look."

As he spoke, black mist rose under Balliard's feet. If he wanted to fly, he wouldn't need these things. If he had the idea of ​​flying, he could fly naturally, but the other four people couldn't. If he didn't take them with him, Balliard would

If you don't pay attention to their situation, they might die inexplicably later.

"Flying?"

The moment the black mist appeared, these people were still a little nervous, but looking at Balliard's calm face, they understood who had summoned the black mist, and they stood calmly on the black mist.

, experiencing the feeling of flying like never before.

Although this kind of flying had nothing to do with them, they just stood there and then flew into the sky.

But since ancient times, flying has been a human desire. Even if this dream is achieved through external forces, it is still a great achievement.

"Be careful not to fall. From this height, it's easy to fall into pieces."

Balliard saw the few people probing the edge of the black mist little by little, trying to lower their heads to look down at the world beneath their feet, so he warned the four of them.

If these people fall, he will probably not save them, but if he didn't say it in advance, it would feel a little unreasonable not to save them, but now he has made it clear

If he falls, he will be smashed into pieces, which means that he will not take action. Even if these four people seek death, there will be a limit.

A few minutes later, Balliard and these people landed on the rabbit's back.

Annie, who was on his shoulder, immediately jumped down and came into close contact with the rabbit's back.

"..."

Touching the fur on the rabbit's back, Annie sat up unnaturally, grabbed a handful of rabbit fur, and felt it carefully.

"How is it? Doesn't it feel good in the hand? These rabbits are too huge, and their level has not reached a suitable level. After enlarging them, the fur will be much rougher."

Balliard picked up the unhappy Anne without resistance at all, and when he reached out, Anne naturally let go of her hand and no longer held on to the rabbit fur.

"Ballyard is the bad guy!"

However, Anne put all the blame on Valliard and sulked on Valliard's shoulders.

"Yes, yes, do you want to take another look? There are still a lot of bugs on these beasts. We can look for them. Those bugs are even more disgusting when they are enlarged."

Balliard didn't care about Anne's reaction at all. If he really wanted to say it, he was indeed wrong.

He knew what would happen, but he didn't tell Anne. Instead, he let Anne hold on to hope and experience disappointment. It was right to call him a bad guy.

However, seeing Annie like this, he couldn't help but say a few more words. In this world line, his human mask is not generally active.

"I don't want it! Leave now!"

Anne's little fist hit Valliard's face, making a banging sound, like knocking on the door.

"Fine."

Balliard controlled the black mist and flew to the top of the rabbit's head. He looked around and found a pothole.

"Is it that place?"

To be on the safe side, Balliard did not identify the cave directly. Instead, he asked Anne. Anne was the one who managed the satellite. Anne knew the map information best.

"Well, that's right there. Let's go there quickly. There are bugs coming!"

When Annie lowered her head, she saw a huge and ugly insect jumping, jumping as if it was about to jump up. She didn't want to be touched by that kind of thing.

"no problem."

Balliard had a bad smile on his face, but he was thinking in his heart. This feeling seems to be easy to deepen the relationship between the two parties? Perhaps, it can also be used as a means to win over people's hearts.

However, in this world line, he is the emperor of a new country. As an emperor, it seems that he can only use this method on a few people. If he does it on others, it can easily backfire.

As for Ezreal, he had already encountered a fork in the road at this time and had to return to the ground to wait for the arrival of Valyard and others.

He can't stay in there anymore. Once he stays in there, he may get in without waiting for Balliard and others to arrive. And if there is a fork in the road here, after Balliard and others come, they may not be able to

find him.
