Chapter IV: The Decision of the City Lord Bassica
The temporary storage area was in the woods on the northeastern side of the city, set up by the lord of the city, Bassica, and consisted of a row of several large houses. The www.biquge.info of the Fun Pavilion and the easternmost house have been a temporary place for people rescued from the dragons.
Iron Claw was separated from Jack at the city gate because he wanted to return to the first team. Jack placed all the people and belongings in these large houses, and then communicated with the officers who had been stationed in the storage area, and then took the members of the fifth team back to his base.
In the huge silent house, there were only four people: the city lord, Duroc, Black Cliff, and Elena.
The city lord shuttled back and forth in the aisle between Duroc and Elena, and none of the four of them spoke, only the city lord's black armor kept making the sound of clanging metal.
Suddenly, Black Cliff stood up: "City Lord! This...... Why give it to them? ”
Duroc didn't say anything the whole time, just listened to their conversation, though he didn't understand that the city was going to send back what he had looted.
The city lord stopped, his back to the black cliff. He sighed deeply: "Black Cliff! This time, the object of your robbery is different! ”
"What's the difference? As long as it's a wyvern, it's damned! And the wyverns that plundered us? There was a hint of anger in Black Cliff's tone. Despite this, he still kept a cool head and controlled his attitude of speaking.
The city lord turned to the Black Cliff, shook his head, and said, "This time, you are robbing and killing the family general of the leader of the Dragon Clan's first regiment, Demon Wisdom. ”
Black Cliff frowned and said in confusion, "So what? ”
"The current king of the Dragons is Turanster who is Groot, and the leader of the Dragons' First Legion is the Dragon's greatest nobleman, the Magician. According to the information I have, the internal affairs of the dragons are extremely unstable, and if nothing else, the Mozhi is about to rebel. Because as a dragon, the demon will never allow a person with only half dragon blood to rule the dragon clan. The lord of the castle said as he returned to his seat.
Black Cliff crossed his hands and said thoughtfully, "The city lord thinks that the Demon Wisdom will bring the Dragon Clan back to power?" But what does this have to do with us? Sooner or later, there will be another all-out war between the wyvern and the humans! ”
"Then do you know that if the dragon clan is ruled by the dragon itself again, which of the three border cities will attack first?"
Black Cliff seemed to understand something, and said with a slight disdain on his face: "Is the city lord afraid that if he starts a war with the dragon clan, he will first take the Moffite?" ”
The city lord's face changed, and he stood up again and said, "I, Basica, will be afraid of him flying dragon?" ”
Black Cliff then asked, "Why is that?" ”
The City Lord explained, "As the Lord of a City, I need to think about the future of the entire Moffett! ”
Black Cliff said loudly: "The flying dragon will not be removed!" What about the future! Look at the dragons that inhabit the Dragonspine Mountains, spying on our land all the time. Even if we sycophants them, will they be merciful enough to spare the city of Moffitt? ”
At this moment, Erena, who had not spoken, stood up and pointed at the Black Cliff and said, "Please pay attention to your attitude!" Mr. Black Cliff! You are facing the hero city lord of Moffett, twenty years ago, in the face of tens of thousands of dragon army city lords have never succumbed, let alone now? Please don't speculate on the intentions of the castle lord. ”
"Hehe" Black Cliff sneered, and then asked, "Then please ask the city lord to make your intentions clear!" ”
"Lord Black Cliff!" The city lord said solemnly: "Actually, I have always valued you very much. Not only because of your personal abilities, but also because you have the same hatred for dragons as I do! ”
Black Cliff frowned, and her jewel-green eyes showed a hint of doubt.
"I can understand your doubts." The City Lord paused and continued, "As you said, sooner or later there will be a battle between humans and Wyverns. You can't hide, let alone Moffitt, who is located on the border line? But! Have you ever wondered what kind of city Mofiguet has always been in the eyes of humans? ”
"The perseverance of mankind, the city of iron and blood."
"Yes, but what would happen if the dragons attacked Molfergut first and broke it?" The city lord slowly raised his head and said, "That will be unimaginable!" ”
"Impossible! The king will send troops to increase his troops, and he will not let Moffett fall! ”
"Really? Do you think Chancellor Otis would like that? ”
"Why can't it be? Even if he is the actual ruler of a human dynasty, he will ...... as a human being."
"He won't! Although he deceived the king, he took most of the power. But as long as the king is there, as long as the king still holds in his hand the bronze sword of the Seven Evil Yuan, which symbolizes the highest power of mankind, he will never be a king. ”
Black Cliff seemed to understand something, and said, "You mean that Odis colluded with the dragon clan to usurp power?" ”
"From the information I have, Otis has been in contact with the Burning Sky!" The city lord sighed: "Although it is only speculation at the moment, it should be about the same. ”
Black Cliff asked, "But what does this have to do with us currying favor with the Wyvern?" ”
"It's not about currying favor with the Wyvern, it's just about confusing our enemies!"
"Confuse the enemy? Who is the enemy? Magic or Otis? ”
"Both! Now that they've joined forces, we're going to deal with them together! The city lord walked up to Black Cliff and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Are you willing to believe me?" Black Cliff! ”
Black Cliff looked at the city lord's iron-like resolute face, and asked suspiciously, "But what should we do?" ”
"Take the initiative to curry favor with the Devil, and contact Otis to make him think that we have defected to the Wyvern, and then grasp the evidence of his collaboration with the enemy to expose him in one fell swoop!"
Black Cliff was a little worried: "But this will cause you to get involved in gossip, even in Moffitt, you will be discredited!" ”
"So what?" The city lord suddenly laughed loudly: "Wait for all the inside stories to be made public, and then the clear will be cleared!" ”
Suddenly, Black Cliff knelt on one knee and said, "City Lord! What an offense just now! Thank you for your understanding! ”
The city lord held up the black cliff and said, "It doesn't have to be like this! Your reason just now made me believe that you are a person worth trusting! ”
"When is the city lord going to act?" Black Cliff asked with concern
"Tomorrow, I'll send Jason to send it. Go back first. The city lord patted Black Cliff's right shoulder and said, "I should really thank you for your trust today!" ”
"The city lord is serious!" Black Cliff clasped his right hand on his chest and gave a jazz salute to the city lord, and Duroc stood up and did the same. "Thank you for the trust of the city lord, then we will go back first!"
"Hmmm! Let's go back! ”
Duroc and Black Cliff left Jieming Castle, and on the way Duroc asked Black Cliff: "Boss! Do you think this can really bring down Otis? ”
Black Cliff sighed deeply and said, "I don't know either! But if you don't defeat the Odis, the Terrans may really be defeated! ”
"Then the humans who were captured by the wyvern are also going to be returned?" Duroc asked
"Yes!"
"But it's cruel!" Turn around and stop Black Cliff
"If not, how do you convince the Wyverns?"
"You can let them escape! Isn't there no way to run away? Duroc looked at Black Cliff with expectant eyes
"...... so?" Black Cliff was also speechless.
"I'm going to send them back to Proud City, so isn't that okay?"
Black Cliff was silent for a while, and said, "Okay! Be careful not to be seen! I'll go back and discuss with the lord now. ”
"Hmmm! Thank you, Boss! ”
Black Cliff smiled, "Thank me for what?" Isn't this what our dragon slayer should do? ”
Duroc smiled, and then rushed to the temporary storage site.
