Chapter 17 - This one is really on the right
Keli curled up on the seat with her petite body, her hands wrapped around her calf wearing white stockings, her eyes full of fatigue.
She is very tired, she will miss home and dad when she is tired.
This trip to Newlin was a very severe test for her, and the pressure she faced was much greater than during the defense of Qingquan City.
It sounds simple to clean up the remaining monsters, but to experience it is much more troublesome than just fighting.
After they separated from Rohr, they spent three days on the train to Newlin, and then they devoted themselves to the cleanup work. In just a few days, they had already traveled through several cities and villages.
Newlyn was attacked before. Although the empire mobilized heavy troops to defeat the enemy’s offensive in the first place, it was unable to wipe out all of them, and quite a few monsters escaped.
However, Newlyn is a mountainous area. There is too much space for the monsters to hide. Instead, they played guerrilla warfare with humans, and infinitely harassed factories, villages, mines and other unprepared areas. After more than a month, the losses were caused. It was actually bigger than it was during the previous large-scale invasion.
There are many powerful monsters that are difficult to deal with, and the army and the extraordinary have also suffered a lot of losses.
Although the newspapers have been preaching that the crisis has been resolved, and the few remaining monsters are no longer a threat, Governor Newlyn has long been devastated and almost committed suicide. This allowed the Empire to send three eighth-tier powerhouses, including Keli, to come over. Each is responsible for clearing an area.
Under the arrangement of Anya’s father, Keli is responsible for the most important and most complicated area.
is a challenge as well as an opportunity.
If she can persevere, this will be a very distinguished qualification, and it will also be a rare exercise, which will make her take off a bit faster.
“Or, shall we take a day off tomorrow?”
Anya looked at Ke Li’s pitiful appearance, and she was very distressed.
She was actually very tired. She was with Keli almost all the way, without any laziness. Although she didn’t have to fight, she had to deal with all kinds of entertainment that was more tiring, no more relaxed than Keli.
Keli barely squeezed a little smile and shook her head.
“Sister Anya, it’s okay, just sleep. If you say you want to go to the village tomorrow, I promised the children there and will protect them.”
Anya lowered her head and blamed herself:
“I’m all to blame. You shouldn’t be dragging you to various social occasions. If you can save those time, you will definitely have a better rest.”
Keli stretched out her little hand, patted the back of her hand lightly, and in turn comforted:
“Sister Anya, it’s okay, I know you are for my good.”
Newlin is considered to be one of the wealthiest provinces in the empire. It has a wealth of network resources. It would be a waste of the Duke’s arrangements to come to this place to work.
That’s why Anya took her to various social occasions, wanting to help her accumulate a network of contacts and pave the way for the future.
The original intention of the idea is good, that is, I overestimated my endurance…
“Sister Anya, I want to write to my father. After I leave, he must be sitting at the entrance of the village every day, waiting for my letter…”
Keli said suddenly.
“Okay, let’s write when we go back!”
Anya nodded vigorously.

Early the next morning, Rohr got out of the tent, first turned his left hand into a mirror and a razor, trimmed his beard, and then kicked the donkey, urging him on the road.
The map was burned by him last night, but it didn’t matter, he still remembered the general direction, Newlin was in the south of the empire, so he had been heading south.
Little donkey was attracted by carrots, and he carried Roer out of this wasteland, and then he saw—
A highway…
Roll suddenly realized that the technology in this world is actually not that bad. There are roads, railways, and even airships.
Although there is no train station in Yorktown, there must be one in the city next door.
He has also been living in the backcountry for too long, and he has forgotten this for a while…
Then he now faces an awkward choice:
This road runs east-west. If you walk along the road, you will definitely reach the town. If you are lucky, you can catch a ride, but you will deviate from the direction and don’t know where you will be taken.
If you can continue to go south, then I don’t know how long it will take.
After a little tangled, Rohr still told the donkey to turn around and walk along the road.
I used to be a modern person anyway, so naturally I have to use transportation.
And he was lucky. He didn’t go far when he saw a steam truck pulling wood passing by.
He quickly gave a thumbs up.
The truck driver raised his **** and walked away.
Is there any quality!
Roer was helpless, so he had to follow the direction of the truck, and slid forward.
In the end, he didn’t go far, and he encountered a scene that made people laugh.
The truck was stopped by the road tyrant. The driver was standing on the roof with a fruit knife in his hand, trying to stop the robbers who were climbing.
Seeing Luo Er appear, he quickly beckoned for help. UU reading www.uukananshu.com
The robbers also noticed Roel, and quickly divided a few people around him.
Roll subconsciously stretched his hand to the hilt of the sword, but after thinking about it, he released it again, and then took the shield from behind and fixed it to the back of his hand.
After a few muffled noises, the surrounding robbers flew into the grass on the side of the road, and there was no movement.
The remaining robbers saw the shield in Roer’s hand that was spinning at high speed like a big windmill, and it instantly became scattered like birds and beasts.
Waiting for the driver to change the tires of the car, Luo Er got on the ride, and the donkey was also stuffed into the car, squeezed with the wood.
“These people are too lawless, thanks to meeting you.”
The driver said with a smile.
Roll nodded, did not say anything, and was still observing the truck carefully.
This is the first time he rides in a vehicle in another world. It is very different from the one on Earth. There is no steering wheel, only two joysticks, and I don’t know how to control the direction.
The sound of the engine also seemed to be different from that on Earth, more like the growl of a beast.
He vaguely remembered that the sounds of driving on the earth were like ‘Didi’.
Roll observed enough before he chatted with the driver.
Duoduo Town on the map moved out more than ten years ago, and the driver does not know why, but Duoduo Town is now more prosperous than before, and there is also a train to Newlin.
“However, it seems that Newlyn’s side has not been peaceful recently. There are very few goods coming in. The train only runs every three days. You have to try your luck if you can catch it.”
The driver continued to introduce.
Roll couldn’t help but narrowed his eyes slightly. It seemed that he had made the right trip this time. There were real monsters left on Newlin’s side, and his daughter might be in danger!
