Chapter 343: The Palace

"What's going on? Why did Jurgen suddenly lose?"

In the square, there were still many students who were confused, and couldn't understand why the battle ended suddenly.

The position where they were standing happened to be only able to see Jurgen's back, and they saw Lin Ze suddenly approach after avoiding Jurgen's attack, and then flew out after the latter, landing unconscious.

"I don't know very well, Lin Ze seems to have used some kind of clever technique. One of the students hesitated in reply.

In addition to doubts, the discussion among the students gradually expanded, and the instructor couldn't help frowning when he saw this, and immediately stopped everyone: "Don't you see that you are still in class?

After the students returned to their original places to continue practicing, the instructor looked at Lin Ze, with a flash of appreciation on his face, and bowed his head lightly: "Yes, it seems that you have learned your skills more thoroughly than I imagined, and the blow just now was very beautiful." ”

As the instructor of the technical combat class, he naturally understood better than the freshmen, knowing that Lin Ze's previous blow seemed to be weak and weak, but it accurately hit the tendons of Jurgen's arm, depriving him of his strength, thus skillfully defusing Jugen's attack, and then seizing the opportunity to defeat the enemy with one move.

In other words, he would not be able to deal with it more skillfully than Lin Ze, it was rare for a freshman to be able to do this level, so he couldn't help but admire.

patted Lin Ze on the shoulder, the mentor thought for a while, pointed at Nabella and said, "Nabella, you are here to be Lin Ze's opponent." ”

Nabella was stunned for a moment, then bowed her head and said, "Yes, teacher." ”

"Well, it looks like I'm going to have to find another partner. Ark was stunned, shrugged his shoulders and showed an ambiguous smile at Lin Ze, and then turned around and walked away.

Nabella came to Lin Ze, looked him up and down a few times, and then whispered with emotion: "It's really surprising, I originally thought you would lose to Jurgen, but I didn't expect your technique to be so masterful!"

The girl's tone couldn't help but have a hint of depression, she had always thought that her skill level was only one line lower than Lin Ze at most, but now it seemed that it was far inferior.

Hearing this, Lin Ze just shook his head and smiled, and said, "Technique is just a small path, for a half-dragon person, a strong physical body is the foundation of strength, isn't it?"

Nabella was stunned when she heard this, and nodded thoughtfully: "You're right. ”

After saying this, her expression suddenly changed, and she apologized to Lin Ze: "I'm sorry, it's all because of me, Jurgen who came to you for trouble." ”

"It's not your fault. ”

Seeing that Nabella was still about to speak, Lin Ze motioned her to look around with his eyes, shrugged his shoulders and said, "If we continue to talk, I'm afraid everyone else will misunderstand." ”

Nabella was stunned, looked around, and sure enough, she found that most of the students were secretly looking at her and Lin Ze with strange eyes, and her face suddenly turned red, she closed her mouth and said no more, and concentrated on practicing with Lin Ze.

......

The encounter with Jurgen was just a small episode, and it didn't have much impact other than making Lin Ze's reputation as a freshman even more famous, and he still lived a dull life of attending classes, collecting materials in the library, and occasionally going out with Ark or Nabella.

In this way, it has been a month since Lin Ze entered the "Dragon Country" dungeon, and a quarter of the time spent in the game has passed, but he still hasn't found a way to improve the strength of the white dragon.

"Almost all the valuable books have been rummaged, and there is no more information to be obtained from the library, so I have to find another way. ”

Lin Ze's original plan was to find a breakthrough from Nabella, and in his expectation, the nobles should have more secret information than the lower-class commoners, and perhaps they could find the secret of the dragon god's power from it.

However, after most of the month's contact, the harvest was very limited.

Nabella didn't know more about the dragon god than Lin Ze had gained from the library, plus what she had seen and heard these days, but this was probably because she was only the heir to the head of the Frye family, not the current head of the family, so she didn't have the real secrets yet.

In view of this, Lin Ze had already begun to consider whether to find an opportunity to kidnap the head of a big noble family and torture him to find out the information he wanted, and it was not difficult to do so with his strength.

Doing so may be a surprise, but at least it will break the current stalemate and lack of progress.

"What are you thinking?"

Lin Ze was awakened from his contemplation by a pleasant female voice beside him, and he followed the sound to see Nabella's bright eyes as jewels looking at him steadily.

"It's nothing, I'm just thinking about some of the problems I encountered in class today. Lin Ze smiled and found an excuse to perfunctory.

Tonight, the class was suspended due to the temporary work of the theological teacher, so he had the whim to ask Nabella to take him to the palace to have a look, after all, it was said that the Norman dragon god lived in the palace.

It is normal for a commoner who has never been close to the heavily guarded royal palace to be interested in the royal palace, Nabella has no doubts at all and readily agrees, and with her identity, it is not difficult to bring a student from the Central Academy into the palace area, but at most she can only stay in the outer area.

"We've arrived, and this is the outer part of the palace. Nabella didn't doubt him, and chuckled when she heard this.

Lin Ze followed her line of sight, only to find that the two of them had unconsciously come to a majestic gray and black gate.

The gate is more than ten meters high, made of steel throughout, shining with a cold metallic luster under the light of nearby torches, flanked by a thick stone wall with no end in sight, behind the wall there are two tall tower buildings similar to watchtowers, and there are several figures standing on the top of the tower, which should be garrison soldiers.

In front of the gate, there were more than a dozen heavily armed soldiers with faint dragon scale lines on their faces standing guard dutifully, and their solemn eyes stopped at Lin Ze and Nabella for a moment.

The sergeant major at the head seemed to recognize Nabella, and when he saw that she and Lin Ze were just standing more than ten meters in front of the gate, they didn't mean to approach, so they didn't step forward and retreat.

"Does Lord Ryujin live in this palace?"

Lin Ze had already seen a lot of buildings that were more majestic than the palace in front of him, and although he was not surprised in his heart, he still pretended to be amazed on his face, and deliberately asked in a flurry tone.

"That's right, in the deepest part of the palace. Nabella nodded, and said with a smile at the end, "Even so, I have never met Lord Ryujin, and the only people who can meet Lord Ryujin are the highest-ranking legion commanders and nobles in the principality. ”

Lin Ze nodded, set his eyes on the half-dragon warrior guarding the gate, and said unintentionally: "The one guarding the gate is actually a half-dragon warrior, and this palace guard is really strict." ”

The half-dragon people are not the cabbage that can be seen everywhere, the total number of half-dragons in the entire Norman Principality will not exceed three thousand, the number is not much, and it is even more rare to scatter all over the principality, in this case, more than a dozen half-dragon warriors are arranged to guard the gate of the palace, which shows that the principality attaches great importance to the safety of the palace.

Moreover, even the gate is like this, and the guards in the palace will only be tighter, and maybe the dragon god guard, the ace legion of the Norman Principality, will be stationed in the palace entirely.

After listening to Lin Ze's words, Nabella nodded approvingly: "Indeed, in fact, the palace guards were not so strict in the past, but there have been several assassinations in recent years, and the palace has become heavily guarded after that. ”
