It's morning, the morning light is just right, and the winter breath brings a slight chill, but also brings a sense of refreshment, which makes people feel refreshed.

The imperial capital is still as peaceful as ever, and the people at the bottom are still working hard for three meals a day, living a plain but extremely fulfilling life.

Most of them have no interest in current events or politics, and only when major events are posted on the bulletin wall, they will be used as after-dinner conversations for a while.

And just recently, two things happened in the imperial capital that caused a small sensation.

One of them was about a criminal being publicly executed.

The victim was a strange-looking clown, covered in the scars left by the torture, and he looked miserable.

And even more tragic than this was his death penalty, he was nailed to the wall of the imperial capital with his limbs with long nails, and he was exposed to wind and rain, without eating or drinking, and suffered for three days and three nights, before he died in pain.

It's such a tragic scene that no one who has seen it once will want to see it a second time.

Such cruel punishments were not uncommon at a time when corrupt bureaucrats led by Earnest were rampant, but General Havel was not a man of such cruelty in his reputation among the people.

Therefore, the people can't help but be curious about the Joker's crimes, but after learning more about the Joker's actions, they immediately turn from sympathy to disgust and spurn him.

This kind of scum, it should be killed!

Another incident is about the minister's son, Shira, who was privately executed by Javier.

I don't know where the news came from, maybe it wasn't deliberately blocked, compared with the previous public execution, it was much more shocking.

Many people speculated from this incident that the court was probably going to be in chaos, and the person who held the power should also change.

That's exactly what happened.

Since Sheila was executed, it means that Javier is ready to make the last preparations against Ornest - in the near future, there will be no more Earnest in the Empire.

The country has been in a miasma for too long, and it is time to get back on track, and the entire reformist forces have been mobilized in these days for a common purpose - to kill the rebels!

These people are looking forward to the bright future of the empire when Earnest is gone, and what an exciting prospect it will be.

At this moment, Javier, who was the central figure of all the plans, the general was not busy with the final deployment before the operation, but threw the preparations to his subordinates, and left the imperial capital alone in the black dragon.

-

The Mountain of Falsehood.

This is the most dangerous place around the empire, and the dangerous species that live here are all good at the existence of the troublesome ability of mimicry, and if one is not careful, even a master will be damaged here, and ordinary people don't even dare to get close.

However, although it is a mountain, it covers a wide range, and it is better to say that it is more suitable for the mountains.

Javier stood on the top of the mountain, his black military uniform blown by the long wind, and his silver-white forehead hair also rose with the wind, overlooking the forest and sea scenery below from a high vantage point, and the surrounding terrain was unobstructed.

The top of the hill he was standing on was flat and open, as if it had been slashed alive by the gods with a giant sword, and even with Alfred lying beside him, there was still a lot of space left, and it didn't feel narrow at all.

Javier stood here silently, his deep purple pupils shimmering with a contemplative glimmer, letting time pass quietly, as if waiting for something.

After about ten minutes, a long roar suddenly came from the distant sky, and the wind could be faintly felt, which made Javier raise his eyes slightly.

A tiny black dot suddenly appeared in his field of vision, and as the distance approached, it eventually turned into a behemoth.

It was a majestic dragon-like creature, its bats stretched out against the long wind, two rows of sharp fangs white and cold, crimson scale armor exuding a scorching aura, and a pair of silver horns rose into the sky, the terrifying power of the superior predator.

Javier watched indifferently as the giant dragon landed on the top of the mountain, and in the loud bang, his eyes did not fluctuate at all, but the black dragon lying beside him suddenly straightened up and let out a threatening roar, obviously full of vigilance against this sudden appearance of the same kind.

And in the face of Alfred's provocation, the crimson dragon also roared unto be outdone, and the majestic dragon's eyes contained a tyrannical light, if it wasn't for someone beside him to appease, I am afraid that it would have been directly clawed over.

Javier recognized the creature in front of him, a super-dangerous species that inhabited the southeastern Black Wind Mountains, named Kstasa, and the woman's mount.

As he thought so, a tall ice-blue figure leaped lightly from the dragon's back, white high heels trampling on the mud and stone ground at the top of the mountain, and beautiful long hair fluttering in the wind.

Estes straightened the cross beret on top of his head, and looked at Javier with a pair of wonderful eyes, his seductive red lips slightly upturned.

And Javier met her gaze, and his cold and hard expression also loosened slightly, revealing a smile that was not too obvious.

"You're here." He said.

"What, you've already arrived, it's still so early before the appointed time? What a pity. Estes looked regretful.

"What a pity? Don't you always complain that I'm too late for a date? Havel was puzzled and said, "This time I even pushed the job, very sincere, right?" ”

"That being said, I actually enjoyed the time waiting for my lover...... It is full of novelty and the mood is subtly throbbing. ”

Estes chuckled, raised his leg and took a few steps forward, then graciously wrapped his arms around Javier and rested his head on Javier's shoulder.

"Well, though, occasionally as the one being waited, it doesn't seem to be a bad feeling."

The distance between them was so close that Javier could even smell the fragrance in her hair, and his eyes glanced slightly, and he couldn't tell what kind of gaze it was.

"You're a hard woman."

"Of course, I'm a woman anyway." Estes chuckled lowly, "Women are very willful, don't be delusional about reasoning." ”

Javier nodded thoughtfully, with the living example of Estes, coupled with some of his own personal experiences, he had faintly equated "woman" with "troublesome existence" in his heart.

"You said that you will go out hunting together today, have you thought of your goal? This False Mountain is the most dangerous place in the vicinity, and there are still quite a few guys to choose from. ”

Javier looked at Estes, who was holding his arm and not letting go, the elastic touch on his arm made his heart beat a little, but he pretended not to care, and asked about today's itinerary.

"Yes," Estes tapped his lips thoughtfully, and then quickly decided, "I heard that there is an overlord-like existence in the deepest part of the False Mountain, and it is very difficult, how about hunting it?" ”

"The overlord of the Mountain of Falsehood? You mean...... Evil Winged Bull Python? ”

Havel recalled the information about this so-called overlord and shook his head: "Where is this just very difficult? It's a hellish challenge, and you're really going to pick an opponent. ”

As we all know, the term "super dangerous species" covers a very wide range, and the difference in strength between individuals is not very obvious, and some are very far apart.

Even if it is also a super dangerous species, it is not uncommon for one party to be crushed by the other.

Don't look at the fact that Javier has killed a lot of super dangerous species, but they are basically defeated dogs who were expelled from their territory by latecomers and then had to make trouble everywhere, and among the super dangerous species, they can be regarded as relatively low-level guys.

And those guys who have their own territory and rely on strength to dominate one side, that is the real tricky existence.

Javier has also fought against this type of dangerous species, but most of them have been through hard battles and have never won easily, and the fight with Alfred a few years ago was one of them.

And now, what Estes wants to challenge is the overlord of the region of the False Mountain, a terrifying existence that almost accepts the mountains within a radius of hundreds of miles as his own territory.

Compared to Alfred's mere corner, I don't know how many levels higher, and naturally the strength cannot be generalized.

"If it's too weak, then you won't be able to enjoy it, this level of strength is just right." Estes raised his eyebrows at Javier, "To go?" ”

Although he knew that this was Estes's agitation method, Javier didn't want to weaken his momentum, so he immediately nodded and said, "Of course, who have I ever been afraid of?" ”

This is the truth, even if Javier is allowed to go head-to-head with this false mountain overlord one-on-one, he will never have half a point of stage fright, let alone join forces with Estes to fight against the enemy?

To put it mildly, if the two of them work together, there really is no such thing in this world that cannot be challenged, and it should be the side of the evil wing bull python that should be afraid.

"Very good, worthy of the man I fancied."

Estes nodded in satisfaction, stepped back slightly, let go of Javier's arm, and then grabbed his palm with his backhand, and just pulled him down the hill.

"To enter the territory of the Evil Winged Bull Python, there is probably a long way along the way...... It's so boring to fly there directly, it's a rare date, just walk over while walking, okay, okay? ”

"Do you take a walk in a place where dangerous species gather? You're the only one who thinks that way. Javier sighed, "Okay, I'll be there to the end." ”

Looking at the interested look of Estes beside him, Javier still decided to go along with the other party's wishes, at least today, this date time, he hopes to meet Estes's request as much as possible.

Because, it is very likely that this will be their last date.
