Restarting Life After Forcibly Marrying the Demon King

"Thank you."

Luo Ning waved his hand and walked to the gate of the city.

The city gates are open.

Luo Ning thought that before the march, the empire would send someone to give some passionate speeches to boost morale.

In the end, they didn't seem to be bothered to talk nonsense at all, and they didn't even change the situation. They just sent a few knights to 'escort' around the crowd.

Call it an escort, but it's actually just surveillance.

It is said that soldiers who run away in the empire will be executed on the spot.

Led by the leading knight, the team set off slowly.

The civilian team has not been trained, and the forward speed is very slow and chaotic.

The leading knight was riding a white horse, and he was also advancing at a reduced speed.

Luo Ning was walking behind that horse's ass, and he looked around frequently.

What made Luo Ning feel strange was that apart from the team of more than a dozen knights sent by the empire, they didn't even send half a magician.

The only magician besides Luo Ning was Maria who joined temporarily.

How on earth is such a team going to break through the enchantment of the Demon Race?

The people in the empire wouldn't expect a few knights to blow up the barrier, right?

"What about the second princess?"

Luo Ning turned sideways and asked Maria beside him in a low voice.

There were messy footsteps all around, and it was difficult for Luo Ning's chatter to be heard by the second person.

Maria also turned her head and whispered, "Maybe I went back to the Empire and used the teleportation array."

"She comes to have a meal and leave?" Luo Ning wondered.

"'Xi'...?" Maria seemed unfamiliar with this word.

Luo Ning shrugged helplessly.

This sent these 1000 people to die, and what they ate was banquets.

"We don't know anything about the royal family, but she did come to arrange things yesterday, otherwise, she wouldn't have started to act so soon."

"If the queen's deacon hadn't given the order..."

Maria gritted her teeth.

I thought that the march would take at least ten days and a half months to go, but the sudden acceleration of the schedule caught everyone by surprise.

Looking at the sadness and anger on her face, Luo Ning smiled slightly.

"Isn't it good to act faster, die early and be born early."

"……you."

"I am joking."

Luo Ning held back a smile and stared at Maria's face.

Maria's face was flushed with anger, and she glared at Luo Ning with angry eyes.

"You promised Your Majesty that you will protect everyone's safety," Maria reminded him.

Maria couldn't laugh anymore, there were a thousand lives behind her.

Behind the thousand innocent people, there are tens of thousands of people's concerns.

Luo Ning didn't want to make the atmosphere so heavy, so he still said with a smile.

"I know."

Maria stared firmly at the man in front of her.

Although the other party was smiling playfully, Maria did not find any hypocrisy or deceit on Luo Ning's face.

"...You ran so far suddenly, won't your little girlfriend worry about you?" Maria suddenly changed her tone.

"Little girlfriend?"

"Wendy, the girl who danced with you the night before... is a student of my academy."

"You looked so carefully, I only jumped a few steps."

Luo Ning looked at the other party's face and said with a smile.

"She won't be worried?" Maria seemed to be very persistent on this question.

"She is really worried, but she has been comforted... Let me tell you a secret, Principal Maria."

Luo Ning suddenly became mysterious.

Maria looked at him in bewilderment, but also curiously:

"What secret?"

"I'm actually married."

"……what??"

"I even have kids."

"……what?"

Maria froze, her mouth wide enough to stuff an egg.

Under her incredulous gaze, Luo Ning burst out laughing.

"Haha...I lied to you, I don't have children."

Maria's face changed faster than turning the pages of a book, from red to white, before she could hold back, she reached out and slapped the back of Luo Ning's hand.

"Going to the battlefield... stop joking."

Luo Ning shook his head with a smile.

The originally nervous expression on Maria's face was indeed tempered a lot by his jokes.

Luo Ning didn't like this depressing atmosphere, so he joked with her.

Although she didn't make Maria laugh in the end, Luo Ning himself was very happy.

Look back at this mighty team.

In fact, it might be a good thing for Luo Ning to speed up the empire, as it would allow him to go back sooner.

As for the people behind him...

It's hard for a gentleman to chase a four-horse horse, and the common people will be fine, but Luo Ning can't care about the dozen or so knights.

316 The Devil Wolf in the Forest

The team didn't advance many meters before stopping in an open area outside the city gate.

The big trees here were cut down, and several scooters were parked on the flat ground.

The cart is long and big, and the two wheels are quite strong. Judging from the brand newness, it should be just finished.

The knight asked the civilians to go up and sit down, and drove two teams of 500 people into the car just like driving ducks to the shelf.

Afterwards, a few ground dragons prepared in advance were brought out from the woods.

There are iron chains around the necks of those earth dragons, and one end of the iron chain is connected to the cart.

It seems to be a temporary means of transportation for pulling cars.

The earth dragon is a low-level dragon family that was fully domesticated by humans a long time ago. This race is characterized by high endurance and great strength, but the disadvantage is that it walks slowly.

But no matter how slow it was, it was faster than the movement speed of this untrained civilian army.

However, what makes Luo Ning feel ironic is...

Isn't something like a cart used to pull corpses?

"this is for you."

A gust of wind came from Luo Ning's ear, and a rein appeared in front of him.

The person holding the reins is a knight.

The knight was wearing a red cloak, and his voice was muffled.

From the gap in his helmet, Luo Ning saw that pair of unique eyes with a piercing sword aura.

Isn't this person the knight leader who provoked him and wanted to compete with him in magic?

Luo Ning frowned.

Whether he won or lost the night before the relationship, the result is the same?

The guy was just kidding him.

But Luo Ning is not in the mood to talk to him now.

Bring over the reins, and on the other end of the reins are a group of strong brown horses.

Luo Ning turned over and sat on the horse, then looked back at Maria.

"Are you coming up too?"

"okay."

Without much hesitation, Maria raised her slender legs and sat behind Luo Ning.

The horse ran up and down, keeping the same speed as the ground dragon.

Looking at the team of more than a dozen knights in front of him, Luo Ning suddenly thought of something, turned his head sideways, and said to Maria behind him.

"The people of the empire are also willing to call the knight over to be 'buried' with them?"

Maria knew that Luo Ning was mocking those people, but she still cared more or less what Luo Ning said would kill the common people in the royal city.

So she looked at Luo Ning helplessly and sighed.

"It's impossible to come to 'buy'. The purpose of the empire to ask the civilians to open the way is nothing more than to bring back the information of the demons. If everyone is dead, how will the information be brought back?"

"So these knights should have life-saving magic or teleportation magic."

Maria leaned close to Luo Ning's ear and whispered.

Upon hearing this, Luo Ning just nodded and didn't say anything more.

With transportation, the distance has been greatly reduced.

When the sky was completely dark, the moonlight fell, and the hazy gray sphere gradually appeared in front of my eyes.

"Hurry up, we have to go in tonight."

The knight walking at the forefront turned his head, and a rough voice came from the helmet, drifting far away.

The earth dragon following behind him seemed to understand such an order, and his thick-limped feet couldn't help but quicken their pace.

Luo Ning felt sleepy while sitting on the horseback.

Also bumped backache.

The main reason was that Maria was behind him, and Luo Ning didn't move much the whole time.

While the knight was speaking, Luo Ning moved his sore arms in front of him.

"Ow--"

At this moment, a resounding wolf howl came from the depths of the woodland.

Luo Ning's outstretched hand stopped suddenly.

The entire team behind him also stopped in an instant.

The wheels of the cart rolled half a circle on the muddy ground, and then stopped completely.

The leading knight commander raised a hand and pressed it down, signaling the people behind him not to panic.

The surroundings became silent.
