he specific details of this somewhat good news before they figured out the truth, fearing that it would also cause panic among the residents.Shouldn't... it wouldn't...Sir Levin Cornstalk mused to him...Chapter 343: Ranchi's Classic Skin

The lingering scent of lunch still hung in the air, Sigrid rose and smoothed the folds of her skirt gently. [Google Search]

She walked up to the mirror and checked her appearance, her bright purple eyes sparkling with contentment and ease.

Lanche didn't move, still sitting by the small round table, seemingly lost in thought.

A wisp of steam rose from the teacup in his hand, and his fingers lightly tapped the table. His gaze seemed to pierce through the window, onto the distant snowy expanse.

And between the two, the cat boss walked back and forth, its tail held high like a vibrant flag, urging the two to depart on time.

"Cat boss, please don't separate from me on the rest of this journey."

Lan Qi lowered his head to gaze at the cat boss on the ground, reminding him.

Now the Snowfield Province is not so far away, but it's also becoming increasingly dangerous.

Lance then wanted to use the 【Long-Range Communication Magic】 carried by the Cat Boss to directly contact the lords of the Snowy Region Province. That wasn't enough, though. He would have to cross the mountains and travel a distance further in the direction of the Snowy Region Province.

【Ultra-long Distance Communication Magic】 In the absence of relays, the maximum distance is only a few dozen kilometers.

If you want to communicate over longer distances, you will need to use a terminal with relay facilities in place.

Just as Adams, a member of the academic visiting team from the Aloran Kingdom, had previously tried to contact Juliana Knight, who was far away in the Aloran Kingdom from the Academy of Ectereth, he needed to insert a [Long-Distance Communication Magic] card into the terminal provided by the Academy of Ectereth. After passing through numerous relay stations set up by the United Council of Kingdoms across South Continent, it could finally complete cross-country communication.

Currently, the terminals set up in the northern region of the empire are under strict control by high-ranking military officials. Even nobles and officials are unable to use them.

"Okay, meow."

The cat boss nodded, understanding that the road south after leaving Dandelon City would be very dangerous.

To reach the Imperial City of Helrom by way of the Snowdrift and Box Mountain provinces, and then break through the blockade checkpoints, is a daunting and arduous journey.

The main force of the Extinction Branch sets out from the Northwest Province. The Extinction Saint Child leads the Extinction High Priests to the Box Mountain province, a transportation hub, and then northwards. They will arrive at the Snowy Plains Province, and a little further north is this city of Dandelron where they reside.

It wandered around on the ground, gradually becoming a little uneasy.

According to what he overheard from Lanchi and Xide these past two days, the Annihilation Son should most likely keep most of his main forces in the Box Mountain Province. As long as they hold this one pass, no one will be able to forcibly break through the northern blockade controlled by the Empire. This way, they can ensure absolute safety.

The farther north you go, the more desolate and vast the snowy plains become, like searching for a needle in a haystack.

...While the Holy Order of Dominance wanted to return to the Imperial Capital before the vote at the end of April, they had to use the magical rail transit system in the Box Mountain Province. The Annihilation Branch knew very well that the Holy Order of Dominance and the Holy Son would definitely go to the Box Mountain Province.

Once you reach the "Rock Convergence" station, no matter how well you disguise your appearance, it won't be of use. The Heavenly Church possesses a powerful sealing magic that cannot be evaded by mages within a certain distance.

"West, how much of your power have you recovered now, meow"

The cat boss looked up and asked Xi De.

West Germany had returned to its glamorous appearance, her light figure showing not a trace of weakness. Even the Cat Boss could feel that the dangerous aura she possessed had vanished completely.

"It's probably a bit weaker than when I was disguised on the northern border before. Now, I'm relying entirely on my saint child."

West Germany sighed helplessly.

Although the arrogant and domineering Batian Church, as it always was, is unlikely to say such a thing, she is now in West Germany.

Moreover, this was the Holy Child she had personally chosen with her own eyes. It could also be considered her power. Relying on her own strength was obviously nothing to be ashamed of.

Meow meow...

The cat boss thought this state of harmless West Germany was quite good, at least it felt better than before. But facing the danger ahead, he couldn't help but be afraid.

Even if Ranci, as Governor Locke Massey, wanted to take Sieglinde through the Box Mountains Province to the Imperial Capital, it would be impossible. The Annihilation Branch's main force in the Box Mountains Province would do anything to kill them!

With the forces gathered in the Snowy Plains province, it's impossible to contend against the main force of the Annihilation Branch. There's a huge difference in numbers, not to mention that the Imperial Army stationed in Box Mountain province is currently assisting the Annihilation Branch. In Box Mountain province, if a fight breaks out, they will assist the Annihilation Branch first!

"Don't worry, I have a way to get her through Box Mountain Province."

Lanche set down the glass in his hand, his straight spine pressed against the back of the chair.

The cat boss looked over, only to see Lance tilting his cheek, looking out the window as if lost in thought.

Escort me back to the Imperial Capital, and I'll consider it a great service.

West Germany hugged his hands and nodded, increasingly satisfied with his Holy Son.

It's not a good idea to have the Nirvanic Son block off the Box Mountain Province either. What if other kind-hearted Imperial citizens want to travel from the Box Mountain Province to Herloom, the Imperial Capital, and get harassed by them

Lanche looked out the window and muttered to himself.

"…"！

The cat boss suddenly felt a familiar feeling, and a strong chill ran down his spine.

Once a newborn has developed a sense of righteousness, there will definitely be some misfortune! At least one innocent person will definitely suffer.

Prior to his time in the imperial city of Hekaton, Icerith, he had a normal person by his side who could serve as a reference point for him. Since he fled the empire, he completely abandoned any restraints and began to run wild!

The cat boss is now afraid to meet Huberly, instead of looking forward to it.

He is guilty! He has no face to meet Xueba!

Just as the cat boss was struggling in pain, Lance stood up from his chair, one hand hanging his coat, and looked at West.

"Get going, Westside. But the road ahead gets more dangerous. You'll need a new look."

He took out a [Illusion: Human] from his pocket and handed it to Sigrid.

With the additional modifications, including hair and appearance adjustments via 【Transformation: Human】, Lance has no more left.

There was still one last Sigrid card unused, only the very first one she used when she arrived in the Northern Continent.

She could be made to look like a Locke MacCready-like girl with brown hair and green eyes.

Having quickly and neatly taken the spell card from Lance that was given to her, changing her appearance, West raised her head and looked at Lance.

From the moment she woke up and opened her eyes, Lance had changed his appearance. Only she knew that he was still him.

"Haven't I ever seen you in this disguise"

West Germany asked in confusion.

She stared at the young man before her, his black hair and green eyes seeming to want to keep people away while also appearing harmless. He was more attractive than any disguise he had worn before.

I don't know why he decided to be so noticeable this time.

"…"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Lan Qi just smiled without saying a word, clutching his coat.
