Volume 1 Outpost County Chapter 8 The Troublesome Dragon Egg
Alan held the dragon egg in both hands, as if he was being chased by a dog, and ran towards the direction of the castle.
Just now, Alan and Wood reached an agreement, the dragon egg was transferred to the castle, and the outpost county diocese was also a disguised admission that the lord had indeed heard the whispers and inspiration of the Holy Father.
Since he heard the whispers of the Holy Father, the church had no choice but to pinch its nose and admit it, promising to abolish the county's civilian tax law as soon as possible, but refused to send papal knights to follow and protect, and only perfunctorily cast a holy light spell to temporarily seal the negative power on the dragon egg.
Alan knew what Bishop Wood was up to, the Outpost County Church, wishing that he, the scrap lord, would be dead on the streets as soon as he left the church.
So he was in a hurry, and the outpost county was mixed, and even if Wood didn't let the wind out, the various forces would sooner or later find out that the dragon egg had changed hands.
After leaving the church, Alan ran wildly, and as for what to do with the dragon egg after returning to the castle, he still had no idea how to do it for the time being.
Yorkshire chased Alan with sweat on his head, and at this time he didn't care about his appearance, and ran with a red face and panted and shouted: "Get out of the way, everyone get out of the way, don't be affected by the dragon's egg." ”
The civilians in the market looked at them numbly, but stopped and saluted expressionlessly, without the slightest intention of evading.
Alan shouted: "The Holy See is going to issue a battle call, the church will be there in a moment, you are all hanging around outside, be careful to catch you to fight!" ”
Hearing the lord say this, the commoners were like frightened birds, one by one, they could no longer salute, and all returned to the house with a frightened face, and there was no longer a single figure in the market that had just been flowing endlessly.
Yorkshire, who was bent over and panting, looked at Allen's back and shook his head helplessly.
It's really a time to pour dirty water on the Holy See.
Everything that happened this morning completely changed his previous perception of this scrap lord, and he acted in anger and did not act with his immature performance, and scolded him with foul language when he disagreed, just like a street hooligan, not at all like a top wealthy child who had received an aristocratic education since childhood.
But when he faced the helpless commoner child just now, although the lord's face was like an iceberg, but in the blink of an eye, he returned to the church without hesitation, knowing that the risk it brought him was huge, and he also wanted to abolish the civilian tax law.
Until now, Yorkshire didn't believe that Alan was really as rumored to be as straw bales, and if he asked which straw bales could make Wood, the old fox, suffer a dumb loss in the backhand, although the lord did not get any benefits, if the only ones who benefited from it were probably just the commoners in the county who knew nothing about everything.
There are many questions that Yorkshire can't figure out now, especially as a top nobleman who has been blessed by the Holy See's holy water since childhood, why His Excellency the Baron is so disgusted with the Holy See.
Yorkshire is very good at observing words and feelings, and from Allen's words and deeds, he does not see the reverence of His Excellency the Lord for the Holy See at all, only deep disgust and rejection.
Moreover, this scrap lord didn't even bother to hide his displeasure with the Holy See, and for this alone, nine out of nine people on the Continent of St. Cassis couldn't do it.
Yorkshire didn't know if Alan was really fearless by having a powerful father, or if there was something else.
But the most important thing in front of him is the countless troubles caused by the dragon egg, since the moment Alan took the evil dragon egg, Yorkshire has already understood that the troubles will definitely come in the future, but he can't care so much at this time, he can only desperately follow behind his lord to ensure that the negative power of the dragon egg does not affect other civilians.
Alan, who rushed all the way back to the castle, sat on a stone bench in the garden, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
And the magic pattern on the dragon egg in his hand also began to flicker faintly, and the holy light magic cast by Wood gradually dissipated.
Dina, who was picking fruit in the garden, ran over with a curious face, but just as she got close to the dragon egg, her big face instantly lost blood on the plate, and her stout body was shaky.
Yorkshire stabilized his body, resisting the discomfort of his body, and supported Dina to keep retreating.
Alan looked at the two strangely.
He could feel the magic of this dragon egg, but he didn't feel the negative power that others were talking about.
Even Old Lacey, the butler who rarely showed up, walked out of the castle tremblingly on crutches, staring at the dragon eggs with excitement on his face.
Alan found that this skinny and skeletal old butler did not seem to be affected by the negative power of the dragon egg in the slightest.
"Second Young Master, why is the Evil Dragon Egg here?" The old butler Lacey's gong-like voice was very harsh.
Alan looked at the old butler with a lewd face, and secretly thought that there was really no human-looking guy in the castle except for him, the master.
After innocently spreading his hands, he pointed to Yorkshire.
Yorkshire, who was in the distance, had no choice but to explain what had happened in the morning, telling the maid and the butler everything in detail.
Dina, who understood the cause and effect, glanced at her master with a little reproach and said: "Second young master, you are too impulsive, there will be no quiet days in the castle in the future, you see, there will definitely be a group of guys who are not long-sighted to harass the castle in the future, hey, forget it, I'll pick two guys to guard the gate." ”
After saying that, Dina twisted her thick waist and walked to the training ground.
Alan shrugged his shoulders indifferently and let him go.
The old butler Lacey glanced at Allen, grinning and not speaking, as if he did not have the slightest sense of concern.
"Your Excellency, your valet is right." Yorkshire said again and again, "I think you might as well return this evil dragon egg to the church." ”
Alan rolled his eyes and said, "Old Covenant, can you call Dina directly next time, or the maid, don't bring the word "close", you are especially close to Dina." ”
"Your Excellency, now is not the time to joke, those outlaw mercenaries are not good men and women, the defense of the castle is too much..." Yorkshire's second half of the sentence was swallowed back into his stomach as he watched in amazement as the only maid in the castle walked back slowly, carrying a ballista on his left shoulder and a seven-meter dragon spear in his right hand.
Dina threw the ballista to the ground like garbage, kicked it, pointed the front of the ballista at the gate of the castle, hooked the bowstring of the ballista with her little finger and pulled it into a full moon before letting go, and the "buzzing" sound was endless.
The ballista, which required at least three soldiers to operate at the same time, had no weight in Dina's hands like a feather.
With a "bang", Dina thrust the dragon lance upside down into the ground.
Looking at the dragon lance that had penetrated at least one meter into the ground, Yorkshire's heart skipped a beat.
With his mouth wide open, he looked at the ballista used to defend the city, and then at the dragon lance, and felt a wave of fear.
Because in the past, he didn't complain about the appearance and figure of the only maid in the castle in front of His Excellency the lord.
"You're right, dragon eggs are really not safe in the castle, and the church is really insidious." Alan touched his chin, his gaze swept over the faces of several people around him one by one, and asked, "Does anyone know how to purify the egg of the dragon?" ”
The old butler opened his mouth, as if he had something to say, but finally sighed helplessly and shook his head.
Dina directly ignored her master, sat on the crossbow cart by herself, and embroidered with Erlang's legs.
Yorkshire spread his hands.
Alan was a little embarrassed, looking at the dragon egg on the table that was constantly emitting negative power, and kept touching the stubble on his chin.
"What kind of dragon egg, it's weird and scary, isn't it just a big egg?" Dina pinched the silver needle and said without raising her head.
"There it is!" Alan stood up suddenly, gave Dina an appreciative look, and said to Yorkshire: "Issue a notice that the master of the clan will purify this dragon egg in public at the gate of the castle, and directly once and for all." ”
There were a few people around, all of whom were confused.
