On the mountain road, the carriage moves forward slowly.
Lorraine Hill was sitting in front of the car, her pupils half-open and half-closed, and she looked as if she would fall asleep at any moment. Fortunately, the horse in front was very obedient, and there was also a smart blue-black crow standing beside the girl to monitor her.
, if the horse stops to eat grass or goes astray, it will grab the rope and tug as a reminder.
Since the last time she used her power, this sage girl is still in a weak stage and often feels sleepy. Fortunately, a helper has recently come, and the dark-crested blue jay also brings distant news.
With her body huddled in her loose robe, the girl leaned on the seat behind her, breathing slowly, still holding the unfolded letter in her hand.
The remote southern islands.
While winter is going on on the mainland, it is a hot summer here, and the bright sunshine shines on the blue sea waves, reflecting the sparkling waves.
Seagulls fly around the back of the ship, calling out from time to time, and their white silhouettes embellish the sea.
"Have you sent the letter to Lacey?"
Wearing shorts and a light jacket, Lan Lier walked onto the deck and looked at the figure standing by the fence.
"I've asked Blue Jay to take it there. I guess Lacey will receive it in the next few days." Ling Xin, who was dressed in light gauze, turned around. She was still dressed in a dance skirt like before.
"After all, we have arrived at the Southern Islands. It's time to reply to little Lacey, otherwise she will be anxious." Lan Lier stepped forward and stood with Ling Xin at this time, looking at the endless blue on the bow of the ship.
.
"The feeling of the sea is really extraordinary, completely different from that on land." Lan Lier sighed with emotion.
When they were traveling and performing in Crancia in the summer, they received a letter from their teacher Filia, and then met Lorraine Hill.
Then they received a mission, which was to go to the Southern Islands to find a friend of Lacey's.
"Her name is Vimiya, she has hair as blue as the ocean tide, a beautiful singing voice, and a gentle personality." This is how the girl described the sea witch.
"The approximate location is on the Broken Islands at the southern end of the Southern Islands. Those places are very remote and the islands are far apart."
"This can be considered an experience for you." Teacher Filia also said to the two of them.
"Of course, it's also paid." Lorraine Hill smiled and looked at the two of them.
"The Carites Chamber of Commerce has prepared a generous reward for you, and also presented you with a comfortable sea boat for travel."
"Of course I won't refuse such a good thing." After hearing this, Lan Lier immediately patted her chest and said it was no problem.
"In that case, I'll feel relieved." The girl bent down to thank her, and then held out an exquisite doll.
"This doll will serve as your companion and travel together. With her, those ferocious sea beasts on the sea should not be a problem."
Although Ling Xin is already at Sequence 7 and Lan Lier is about to advance, it is safer for Yi Xue to follow the possible Sequence 8 sea monsters. Furthermore, finding the location of Vimiya also requires gems made by the girl to sense it.
, this also requires Yi Xue to operate.
"This...?" Lan Lier and Ling Xin looked at each other, looking at this exquisite doll in blue and black clothes with surprise and curiosity.
"So beautiful~" The two of them seemed to have stars in their eyes, and they bent down to look at the doll.
"But she is alive." The girl chuckled and held up the doll. Then the doll's legs moved, slowly suspended in the air, and then sat on Lorraine Hill's shoulders.
"My name is Yi Xue Gelin, you can call me Yi Xue." Yi Xue Gelin is obviously much colder towards outsiders.
"It's so cold, but so cute." Lan Lier whispered, trying to hug Yi Xue, but Miss Doll stepped on her forehead.
"You can't hug me casually." Yi Xue's fair cheeks swayed slightly, indicating that she didn't want to get close to outsiders. As an ice elf, she had never been the kind of person who was keen on intimacy.
"Okay." Lan Lier nodded disappointedly. He couldn't beat him again and again, so he had to do this.
Looking at Yi Xue's rare appearance, Lorraine Hill was slightly surprised, and then thought of another witch who looked like a doll. It seemed that Si Ye was the same, she only became cute in front of familiar people, and she usually looked like a stranger.
Don't come in with a calm look.
Putting aside the strange personalities of these immortal species for the time being, Lorraine Hill continued to tell Lan Li'er.
"Because the Southern Islands are very large, and you may not be familiar with them. After you go there, you can find a powerful mage for help." Then Lorraine Hill handed a letter to the two of them.
"Her name is Alena. She is currently the most popular archmage, captain, and warcraft messenger in the Southern Islands. It should be easy for you to find out her whereabouts."
"If you encounter trouble locally, you can ask her to help. I believe it will be easily solved."
"I seem to have heard of this name." Ling Xin stretched out her finger and tapped her chin.
"That's right, it's Alena who competes with me for the title of genius alchemist." Lan Lier said angrily.
"Originally, I was more famous because I invented the magic speaker and the phonograph. But that guy made great contributions in the war and became a hero, so he overshadowed me."
"I'm so unconvinced. It's obviously the glorious title of alchemy, but she cheated and took shortcuts. She didn't win by inventing at all."
"Well, maybe it's because the war has a greater impact on people." Lorraine Hill enlightened a little embarrassedly.
"Humph, now that I know, there's nothing I can do about it. But this time I want to get to know her well and see if she has real talent and learning." Lan Lier was very unconvinced with this school girl.
"Okay, get ready to go now."
Afterwards, the two of them took a sea ship, carrying Lorraine Hill's instructions and dolls, and embarked on a journey to the Southern Islands.

[Cute little Lacey, we have now arrived at Huangyou Island in the south. It is said that this is the hottest island in the south. It will be more comfortable further south.
We are slowly getting closer to the place you described. Later, we will follow the route to those broken islands and inquire about them one by one. Now I will report the progress to you. I hope you don’t worry. I also hope that you will be traveling in the Canghong Empire.
joy.
Your good friends, Lan Lier, Ling Xin, Yi Xue (this name seems to be written separately, with different handwriting)]
"Have you reached the south yet? It should be soon."
In the middle of his dream, the carriage bumped against a larger stone on the mountain road. Lorraine Hill woke up from his sleep, rubbed his eyes, looked at the letter in his hand, and then put it away.
It would be great if she could find Vimiya quickly. She always felt a little unable to do what she wanted by herself. Now that Keti was not around, sometimes she had no choice but to think of other ways.
As the reincarnation of Siphonelian, Vimiya is her natural best friend and partner. Moreover, she does not belong to the two factions of Tidaisi and Siye, and she can enter the empire without restraint and assist her in doing some things.
After sorting out the thoughts in her mind, the girl turned her attention to herself.
Verdant evergreen trees stand in layers. In the distance in the field of vision, the mountain tops are covered with white snow, and many trees also have unmelted snow. Snow white and dark green interpenetrate, dyeing the world in a cool and beautiful color.
She pulled up the rope and guided the carriage to a tree-lined clearing beside the road, then jumped down and came to the back of the carriage.
"Wake up, Iena, let's rest here tonight."
"Okay, Sister Mecia." The blond girl sat up in the cargo room of the carriage and let go of the warm blanket. She slowly regained her energy and walked down curiously.
"Is this Longjiao Province?"
"Well, it's not far from where your brother is."
Lorraine Hill rubbed her hair, and then the two found some dead branches in the forest, and then lit a small bonfire.
