 Chapter 599 Lanci returns to his Paulante Empire

 Ten days later.

 Poland Empire, North.

As the country residence of the Paulant Empire, Chikel Manor is located in Birkinghe County, about 600 kilometers north of the capital Helsalem.

 Border estates may be chosen as locations for high-level negotiations where more privacy and security are required.

The manor was gifted to the royal family by Sir Arthur decades ago, with the purpose of providing a place for national officials to rest and work away from the hustle and bustle of the capital, Helsalem.

In this border county located in the northernmost part of the Paulant Empire, even in August, the climate is still cold, with continuous drizzle, and the sky is covered with thick clouds, making the daytime appear dim like dusk.

 It is only ten o'clock in the morning.

Thick clouds have already hung low, and people are walking in a hurry on the street, blending in with the surrounding gray walls.

Most of the buildings in the main city of Birkinhoe are made of stone. They still look solid after years of wind and rain erosion. The streets in the city are narrow and winding. The cobblestone pavement glows with a cyan shimmer under the infiltration of rain, reflecting the surrounding buildings. Outline.

A snowfield deer carriage bearing the emblem of the Demonic Realm's royal family drove past. The carriage was still stained with unmelted snow, and the wheels hummed and rolled, causing a splash of water.

Hyperion in the carriage glanced out the window, then half-closed the curtains again.

"well."

 She sighed.

Different from the Demon King's City where people sang and sang every night, after passing through the Land of Eternal Night and arriving at the Paulante Empire, what they saw was a dark cloud that would never dissipate.

“Can I just go to Chikel Manor and hand it over to Kaliela for you to talk to me later?”

Hyperion looked at the Fallen Lord Kaliela who was sitting across from her with her eyes closed and concentrating.

“Yes, Your Highness only needs to complete the basic ceremonial steps, and leave the rest to me. I will negotiate everything with the Paulant Empire.”

 Calliera stated calmly.

At present, all diplomatic and government affairs in the Demon Realm are arranged by her personally, and the Pollant Empire quickly coordinated the itinerary to welcome Princess Hyperion, but the initial meeting location was set at the northern border of Pollant. of Birkinhoe.

 with with with with with with no surprise, the representative of the Paulante Empire who received the demon envoy was the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Duke Moretti. When she asked to see the Prime Minister, he was politely pushed away.

"OK."

Hyperion readily accepted.

Although she always felt guilty that she was a useless princess, Lan Qi comforted her, saying that she was a very good princess, young and promising.

It was obviously Lan Qi's gentle and polite words... For some reason, she felt that Lan Qi really felt that way.

Today is the thirty-ninth day of this shadow world. Unknowingly, she has been in the shadow world for more than a month.

 Originally, it was about seven days' journey from the Demon Realm border to the Paulant border, passing through the Land of Eternal Night.

But in order to complete the mission goal, they spent some time in the Purgatory City of Pascual after leaving the Demon King City Nekalis, which is where the ancestral home of the Demon World is located.

 It is worth mentioning that the Corridor College of Purgatory is also located in the Purgatory City of Pascual.

Although Lan Qi missed this school very much, he still gave up his selfishness due to his schedule.

 After she and Lan Qi arrived at the Demonic Ancestral Land, [Mission Objective 1: The Demonic Ancestral Land has the possibility of sealing the ancestor of the blood race, and the Demonic Ancestral Land can find some key magic principle] was successfully completed.

Although the ancestral land cannot kill vampires, its supreme magic power can automatically block all creatures other than demons that step in rashly.

In the mission goal of the current shadow world, the method of defeating the vampires should be to completely incapacitate and capture the vampires after successfully defeating them, and then smoothly transport them to the ancestral land of the demon clan in Pascual, the purgatory city. .

 Sealing the vampires like this is the right solution.

 However, after Lan Qi told Luo Qing the formula for Earl's blood boost, Luo Qing was also shaken.

 The Fallen Lord also began to think about the huge commercial value of vampires, as well as the possibility of demons buying and selling vampires and keeping vampires in captivity.

Not only that, Lan Qi also suggested that she reach an agreement with the human kingdom, and the demon world would recycle them at a high price or use strategic resources to replace high-level vampires that are difficult for humans to imprison, forming an industrial chain. The human kingdom on the front line of the northern continent would desperately fight against the vampires. , the captured vampires can also be sold to the demon world for money.

Hyperion covered her ears on the spot and did not listen to the rest of the content. If she listened any further, all her merits would be lost.

However, after they left the Purgatory City of Pascual, Lan Qi left the Great Love Poet in the ancestral land of the demon clan.

The ancestral land of the demon clan is also the eternal resting cemetery of the demon king.

The death of a ninth-level demon in the demon world can be turned into a trial for the demon king. After the demon king dies, he can integrate his last strength and life soul into the ancestral land to make the demon enchantment in the ancestral land stronger.

Unfortunately, Pranay confirmed to Lanci and Hyperion that after leaving the shadow world, all status and bonuses obtained in the shadow world will be removed, including the mark of the great shadow demon woven by the shadow world. , even if you obtain the mark of the great demon in the shadow world, you cannot bring it back to the present world.

Lan Qi himself couldn’t figure out the reason after studying it in the ancestral land of the demon clan for a short period of time. He only thought it was very beautiful.

 But the great poet had the same insights as when he first looked at the original slate, so Lan Qi simply threw her away.

Anyway, the magic cards brought into the shadow world bound by one's own soul, as long as they are not unbound, no matter where they are thrown, they will return to one's own soul space when the shadow world ends. Hyperion looked out the window through the gap between the curtains, thinking quietly to herself.

The rain slowly dripped from the eaves of the carriage, making a clear ticking sound, intertwined with the occasional bells from the church bell tower in the distance.

There are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road beside the car. Occasionally, citizens rush across. They are all tightly wrapped in thick coats and their heads are lowered to avoid the biting cold wind and drizzle.

Even without looking at the map, Hyperion knew that they were getting closer to Chikel Manor on the other side of the city-state.

 "Poland Empire...? Is it here?"

Sigre snuggled next to Hyperion, rubbed her eyes while half asleep, and woke up as if she heard the key words.

 The first moment she opened her eyes, she saw Kaliela sitting opposite.

“We’re here, Sigre, just stay with the princess.”

 Calliera said to the little wolf girl.

 At present, this orphan of the wolf tribe has obtained their identity in the demon world, and is also the key protection target of her fallen minister.

However, Sigre's current identity is still from the Paulante Empire, accompanying them as a guide to the Land of Eternal Night hired by their Demon Realm envoy.

 “No problem.”

Sigre nodded, lay lazily on Hyperion's knees, yawned and continued to rest.

This great demon named Fallen Lord is very magical. When Sigre met her for the first time, she thought her mother was still alive and had turned into a demon. Later, she asked Hyperion and found out that Kaliela could Showing the appearance of the woman the other party most wanted to see, Hyperion also thought she looked like her mother when she first saw Kaliela.

However, Miss Caliera is obviously very young, and it is still too rude to think of such an unmarried woman as a mother.

　　　…”

 Qing Qiangqing originally planned to say something, but he held back.

Since the princess doesn’t have any objections, then she doesn’t have any objections either.

“Sigre, I’ll call you when you’re about to get off the bus.”

Hyperion just smiled helplessly, put her hand gently on Sigre's head, and stroked her light hair.

 It is normal for children to get sleepy easily, and she had heard that Sigre worked continuously for a long time without taking a break, accumulating fatigue that was not appropriate for her age.

 “Thank you, sister.”

 Sigre murmured.

 “Sister, where is Rocky?”

Just after being quiet for a while, Sigre asked again.

 She found that Rocky had disappeared after she woke up just now.

“He said he had his own work and got off the bus when he arrived at the Polante Empire and would meet us later.”

Hyperion lowered her head and spoke softly to Sigre.

"Yes, Rocky's secretary once said that he is a very distinguished figure in the Paulant Empire. I cannot do any disrespectful behavior to him. He also gave me a particularly complicated manual of precautions. But later, Rocky Qi himself doesn’t mind anything, so I just get along with him casually…”

 Sigre murmured to herself like she was dreaming.

She almost forgot that Rocky was actually from the Paulante Empire and just followed him in the demon world.

“Oh, how noble can he be in the Paulante Empire? There is no one with the right title in my intelligence network.”

 Carliera folded her hands and smiled disdainfully.

Along the way, to be honest, she had a bit of grudge against Wumingqing. She always felt that Wumingqing respected her too much, as if he regarded her as an older generation of demons. She even tried to open the door directly in revenge. Their eyes met Wu Mingqing's, but they still didn't interfere with him. She couldn't help but have no influence on this man.

"Well."

Hyperion didn’t know what to say for a moment.

 In fact, she had been mentally prepared before seeing Lan Qi in the Demon World. She would not be surprised by Lan Qi's identity in the Pollante Empire.

 After all, she has been to the Northern Continent.

Hyperion shook her head and didn’t think much about it.

　　Although the faces of the people of the Paulant Empire still look anxious, the cities are shrouded in darkness, and there is no hope of victory, but Lanci said that the darkest moment is often before dawn, and as long as it is overcome, everything will be reversed.

There is one more chapter before twelve o'clock
