The sun was scorching, and the world was filled with light. The white light of the sun, the yellow light of the desert, and the hot light. Danny was wearing a veil hat and riding a horse in the desert.
The veil in her ears fluttered in the wind, and she shouted in surprise, "Wow, this sand horse has great endurance!"
She was riding a slender gray horse with short hair. It was as fast as the wind, and its steps were light.
According to the old knight, this was a sand horse that was a specialty of Dorne. It would not be tired even if it ran for two days straight. It might be a little difficult to run a thousand miles in a day, but most sand horses could run five hundred miles in a day without any weight.
Danny did not believe it at all. If there was such an awesome war horse, all the cities in the world would come to Dorne to look for stallions.
However, after running in the desert for more than an hour, she had to believe it. The sand horses' strange running style gave them great endurance in the desert.
In modern society, scientists had simulated the movement of ostrich foot tendons and created an exoskeleton equipment that allowed the wearer to run at high speed and for a long time.
The sand horses' leg muscles and running style had a similar effect, but they were only suitable for the desert environment. If they were to go to flat mud, the effect might not be as good.
"How is it?" Barristan looked around sharply and asked, "Do you still feel like you are being watched?"
"Sigh, it's vague. At first, my spiritual sense felt something strange, but it was not strong, if …"
If she had not entered the Dragon Spirit state and pulled Big Black into her Spirit Realm immediately, Dani would have thought that she was drunk and hallucinating because of the strong aftereffects of the Dorne wine!
"Not long after we left Sun Halberd City, the feeling of being watched disappeared. This is very strange. If the other party found out about our identity, even if they did not 'greet' us, they would have sent someone to continue watching us."
"In that case, let's leave Dorne Hill quickly. The races, costumes, and customs here are different from the other six countries. The old town has a large population, so we will not be so conspicuous," the old knight said.
Danny nodded and summoned the two dragons. She left the two sand horses in the desert and the two continued to travel west.
After flying for more than two hours, it was close to dusk. They watched the red sun gradually bury in the desert from an altitude of three thousand meters. The vast red light on the earth was intoxicating.
Dani had never seen such an infectious sunset before, nor had she ever seen such a huge red sun. It seemed like Little White would catch up to the red ball if it was just a little faster.
She was very worried. What if they hit the sun?
The stunning scenery intoxicated the white knight. He shouted, "Seeing such a sunset, I have no regrets in my life!"
Danny was also very excited. She opened her arms and shouted, "We still have a long time in the future. We want to see sunsets all around the world, Summer islands, Snake's Lizard Horn, Sosros, the Jade sea, barren land … "
She did not stay idle during the flight. Barristan still had to hold on to the belt that extended from both sides of Big Black's neck to stabilize his body. Danny did not fall off the dragon's back even when she was lying on the dragon's back. Little White would subconsciously adjust her position to keep her balance at all times.
So Danny had extra energy to do other things, such as multitasking. She could look at the scenery while studying the "Blood Dragon Dance" that she got from the dead Lisbon.
Ugh, that guy made up the name.
When Danny held the heritage iron plate and tried to use her mental power to sense the runes, a "QR code" was immediately imprinted into her mind.
She skillfully used her Wizard Power to decipher the information within: Fire Manipulation (Incomplete), for the disciples of the Fourth Peak's Milaris branch. It was divided into three major realms. Fire Magician — freely controlling the form of fire; Flame Spirit — gathering the fire elemental energy in nature to form a rootless fire; Fire Demon King — transforming other elements into fire elemental energy and even igniting all high-energy elements.
The Fire Devil King of the highest realm made Danny's heart surge. Igniting all high-energy elements, what did that mean?
The mental power, wizard power, and magic in the body of an Extraordinaire were also high-energy elements. As long as she was willing, she could burn Tam, Lisbon, and Bo Cheng into a torch with just a glance.
"Sigh, why is it incomplete!" Danny was very regretful. The iron plate only recorded the runes of the first two realms.
It was no wonder that the iron plate did not even have a basic wizard "password". Fire Mages could learn it regardless of their bloodline or talent in witchcraft. It was specially prepared for the disciples of the Fourth Fire Peak.
The process of sketching the runes was far more "difficult" than Danny had imagined. It was even more difficult than the "Coordinate Spell" that she had groped for from scratch.
Before leaving Volantis, she had been assembling the "QR code" bit by bit like building a building of blocks.
There were about thirty thousand basic runes in the first realm. She had not used all the runes in the 108 rune tables, only having thirty-two types. Many of the runes were repeated, and some of the runes had only appeared once or twice.
Comparing it to the "Lisbon 64 Rune Table" that the fire mage had given her, Danny realized that there were seven runes that were repeated too infrequently. The fellow had not been able to distinguish them at all, and had instead created another five runes.
After two days and two nights, Danny had only completed the construction of the runes of the first realm when she arrived in Dorne in the morning.
While flying to the old town in the afternoon, she began to reassemble the rune incantation of the second realm.
One hundred and fifty thousand basic runes, using eighty-two types of runes.
Lisbon was almost half wrong. It was no wonder that he was panting and exhausted his wizard power after only burning Tyrion's beard.
The second realm required even more time. Danny tried for a few hours, and realized that she would need at least ten days to complete it.
Back then, she had used four days to figure out Kui Xi's "Coordinate Spell", and only two days to assemble the runes of the Coordinate Spell in her mind.
Even though there were not many Coordinate Spell Runes, fifteen thousand runes and twenty-four types of basic runes, those runes were completely foreign to her. If not for Tam's inheritance, Danny would only know how to use them, and would not be able to recite the incantations.
Yes, reciting the incantations could reduce the consumption of wizard power.
Magical incantations had their own unique pronunciations. Not all fifteen thousand runes had to be pronounced in the same way.
For example, the one-dimensional English, "understand", was a long string of words, but it was impossible to pronounce the syllables of every letter.
The two-dimensional rune language was more "refined".
"Eh, Your Majesty, there's a situation!" Barristan suddenly shouted, waking Danny from her meditation.
"There are White Knights below!" He said solemnly.
The old knight did not need to learn Witchcraft Runes. He was bored and sprawled on the soft cushion, looking at the scenery below with his binoculars.
Having been a White Knight for forty years, Barristan was all too familiar with the attire of the Kingsguard. In the Dorne Desert, knights wearing white porcelain armor and pure white cloaks were too conspicuous.
"This … What's the situation?" The two dragons began to slow down, circling around the clouds. Using Blackie's vision, Danny saw a group of riders galloping in the desert, heading towards the Green Blood River.
There were six riders, both male and female, riding on sand horses. Other than the White Knights wearing bright white armor and white cloaks, the rest of them were wearing curtained hats to avoid sunlight.
"There must be royalty below! The smallest girl in the middle is most likely Princess Theon Messiah Byra. "The old knight said with certainty.
The White Knights only served royalty, and there was only one royalty in Dorne, Princess Messiah, who was sent to Dorne by Tyrion.
"Messiah?" Danny frowned. What kind of plot was this?
Could the White Knight be Jaime Lannister? He came to Dorne with the mercenary Bronn to save his daughter?
"They're going to cross — Seven Gods above!" The White Knight shouted in horror.
Six riders arrived at the Green Blood River and stopped their horses. Suddenly, more than ten armored warriors armed with crossbows emerged from a wooden raft house by the river. Almost without exchanging a few words, the white knights immediately drew their swords and charged towards the wooden raft.
A tragic scene happened. At such a close distance, the crossbow arrows almost pierced the Kingsguard's horse into a sieve.
The Kingsguard was also brave, he killed the enemy … Er, two soldiers before he died.
This …
With a cold flash of the axe, the White Knight's arm was cut off at the elbow, giving him no time to cry out. The axe drew a beautiful arc, and his head, which was the size of a rice cooker, splashed into the river, blood gushing out from his neck …
The entire process took less than two minutes, and a White Knight went to meet the Seven Gods.
Er, I probably won't be able to meet the Seven Gods, but I might be able to meet the Mad King Eris and Usurper Robert in hell.
"Ah!" Danny exclaimed softly.
The White Knight's tragic death was shocking enough, but the other unforeseen event was even more shocking.
Originally, the six riders were surrounded by the ambush. The others seemed to be planning to surrender. Only White Knight rushed forward. But, when the ambush was distracted by the berserk Imperial Guards, her companions suddenly turned hostile. They drew their swords and hacked down the defenseless Messai... if that was really her.
"What … What's going on?" The two were confused.
"That guy ran away, let's go ahead and stop him," the White Knight suggested.
"What if our identities are exposed?" Danny hesitated.
"Kill him!" Barristan said without hesitation, "Only an animal would hurt a little girl!"
'Sir, please pay attention to your position, you belong to the Long Family now, but the girl below is a Lannister!'
Although she was complaining in her heart, Danny thought about it and agreed to his suggestion.
"Sir, take off your gloves," she shouted.
"What for?"
"I can't go down."
"What do you mean?" The old knight was confused, but he still struggled to take off the lobster gloves on his right hand.
"Raise your arm," Danny shouted again.
So, the old knight raised his right hand above his head with a confused expression.
"Huff huff …" Whitey suddenly accelerated and circled around in the sky. When it arrived behind Blackie, it suddenly did a side flip, almost belly up, and flew over Barristan's head. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Danny, who was hanging upside down on the dragon's back, moved her lips and gently tapped the old knight's right wrist with her finger.
Before she fell, Whitey's body twisted like a snake, carrying Danny and flipping her body. The entire process was as delicate as acrobatics.
"Ouch …" Even though the old knight had been in battle for a long time and had been injured countless times in his life, he still held his wrist and cried out.
"What's going on? It feels like my soul was burned by fire, "the old man said in confusion.
"Hehe, centaurs are actually quite smart. The best way to deal with the Shadow Children is to never let them touch you," Danny smiled strangely and continued, "You can go down now, you'll understand later."
