Chapter 277: Secrets and Letters
The heavy rain crackled on the roof beams, but the downpour did not stop, although according to the time, it was almost dawn, but from the window, it was still a foggy rain scene, and nothing could be seen clearly.
The spring rain at dawn always calms people's hearts, listening to the sound of rain outside, sitting by the fireplace enjoying the hot cocoa, the whole body warms up, as if the fierce battle just now is just a dream Okay, the dragoon duke who is still glaring at me should not see it, at the same time, I am very angry that I didn't give me a cup of hot cocoa, this is a naked race. Discrimination!
"Even if you can drink it? If you really give it to you, you have to complain that others are teasing you. ”
"Dead cat, save me your share."
"Hehe, don't think about it!"
Due to Lilith's sudden killing, the originally nervous form shì couldn't fight all of a sudden, after all, the dragon knight Joan was her bodyguard, and in terms of seniority, Helent still had to call Joan a second grandfather.
It was originally a misunderstanding, and since there were no casualties on both sides, the explanation was very simple.
Even if the undead can settle the royal capital nobles, they can't deal with the dragon clan and the dragon knights, obviously the dragon knights and the undead can't get along, and as the real power faction in the dragon cavalry legion, stationed in Rainy Night City, in a sense, is also a disobedience to the emperor's will.
And Archduke Helent of Rainy Night City had released his words before, no matter what happened elsewhere, as long as the undead dared to enter his territory, he would be directly killed.
And then it didn't take long for us to say that
Hear this. I'm feeling like hitting the wall, maybe I should make time to donate some money to the church of the god of fate, or at least try to wash away my bad luck.
Especially when I heard about this time period. Helent herself was patrolling the city walls, and if I hid in the carriage, I might miss it, but I swaggered on the carriage, and the sentinels were pointing at the city walls, which was simply a provocation to the dignity of the Grand Duke of Dragoon, how could I bear it, and then the scene that followed naturally happened.
I was a little surprised. But the dragon knights seemed to be fully aware of Lilith's identity and knew that she was a blood clan, but there was not a trace of disrespect or hostility.
Especially Sir Joan, who looks to be just middle-aged but at least two hundred years old. Seeing Lilith's expression is too complicated, including respect, gratification, pain, etc., it is simply complicated, and the expression changes dramatically. It's all breathtaking. You can go directly to the stage for a performance of Yan Yi.
"After all, we are all parties back then, although it is not my turn to say, but the emperor of the year, His Royal Highness Amira."
The old knight sighed constantly, but Lilith looked calm, and didn't see the group of passionate dragon knights in front of her, but just led Caroline with a bewildered face to eat snacks. Taste tea, roast and roast. Relax and beat the chill.
I've looked into Lilith's case sometime, Fenna. Milan incarnates the blood Lilith. Milan after that love. The necrophile prince Sinat didn't live long before he was killed, and then the throne was transferred to Xiant and the children of the royal family, and the original royal direct bloodline of the Baier Kingdom has been severed If you have to say it, there is still an Amira in the direct bloodline, but no one in the Baier country dares to expect this outrageous former princess with high seniority to ascend to the throne, let alone count on the descendants of the basic throne.
This is just a hundred years ago, the old ministers of that year were almost dead, once the son of heaven and a courtier, the so-called orthodoxy is the orthodoxy during that period, three generations have entered the tomb, who still remembers the monarch three generations ago.
But ordinary people don't remember, but the dragon knights and dragonborns were still alive and well, and they who believed in the knight's creed, but they still remembered the monarch who was loyal back then, and now they see that the princess, who has been missing for a hundred years, is still "alive" and well, and their faces are naturally full of excitement.
It is precisely for Lilith's sake that we, the "undead", will be invited into the room, otherwise even the so-called ministers of the Imperial Mission will still go back and forth, and if they are cut down, they can only say that they deserve it, after all, Oros will not turn his face because of a lich and dragon knights.
And after a short time together, it can be seen from the attitude between each other, I found that they are not so much a legion, but a big family, that Joan can rely on his qualifications to angrily reprimand Helent's recklessness, and look at the cold-faced handsome guy's helpless but irrefutable appearance at this time, just like a bear child who has been reprimanded by his elders.
And as far as I can see, the famous Grand Duke Helens is not the strongest among the dragon knights, there are several people in the room who are stronger than him, at least the elder Joan, who is obviously the existence of the Holy Order.
"Could it be that Her Highness Fenna is a lobbyist for the sake of the undead?"
Although Joan's face was full of hesitation, in his position, there were some things that had to be asked, and the dragon knight legion and the undead knew that how could a proud dragon obey the dispatch of the filthy undead.
But the highness "Fenna" in front of him is also a vampire among the undead, although it should have nothing to do with the undead in the capital, but the purpose and position of coming with the lich "Rex" are very necessary to determine.
Hearing this, Lilith shook her head directly.
"As I said, I'm Lilith now, a member of the Torah Church, not Fenna. Milan, I don't want to take care of the affairs of the Bayer Empire, and I can't take care of it, here we are here to have other things. As for the Lich Rex"
The inquiring gaze was cast, and the meaning in Mei's eyes was very clear: did it debunk? If you plan to appear your identity, you will say it, or I will say it for you.
I nodded, but didn't say anything, although the saying that the enemy of the enemy is a friend may not be true, but it is better than mistaking it for the subordinates of the undead emperors, otherwise it is mostly irreconcilable, and the ending of tearing the skin of the face directly, there is no need to figure out the guò fortress.
"The person who beat Archduke Helent just now is Lord Roland, who is famous for his careful eyes. Lan. ”
Before she could finish speaking, Helent slammed to her feet. The shock and disbelief on his face was unusually obvious, and he was fit to know me.
I gently swirled the ring in my hand, and a sudden flash of light shredded the false disguise. As soon as the flesh returned, I immediately snatched the dead cat's cup and drank the hot cocoa in one gulp, so that I could continue to taste the sweetness of the food instead of watching others eat and drink.
The dead cat hated it, but knew that this was not the time for revenge.
"Immortal Roland!?"
"Eternal Night! Evil Immortal King"
The identity was clearly explained, but it seemed that the vigilance of the dragon knights was higher, and that Qiao An even directly touched the hilt of the sword. Do I have such a bad reputation?
"As the only undead emperor in the past thousand years, and the spokesperson of the classic image of the great demon king in fairy tales for hundreds of years, can you be a little self-aware. Dear Twenty-Seven on the List of Natural Disasters. ”
"yes. Forty-six fellow natural disasters, Heloise, welcome your reminder. It is said that thanks to our recent table, even though you have disappeared from the world for a long time, your ranking has gone up. Not showing up can make people even more afraid of your save. How does it feel? ”
"The master is unfortunate, and he should have kicked you out in the first place."
Keeping a strict face in the psychological link I and Heloise are as idle as ever, but the dragon knight is already very uncalm, they have their own information channels, naturally know Roland. Arashi is the Emperor of the Eternal Night, the only undead emperor in modern times.
"Could it be that this is also involved with the Undead Emperor of other planes? I just heard that he made a big deal in the north, what are you doing here? ”
The shadow of the name tree of man. In the eyes of the dragon clan, no matter how noble the status of mortals is, it is only a short moment, and it is truly worthy of respect and even fear. Naturally, those immortals who stepped into the clouds step by step, and those guys on the natural disaster list were out-and-out monsters.
"Then that abomination was Adam the Flesh Eater? Am I picking up a life? ”
The blue dragon Sisius Slar, who incarnated as a strong man, was a little afraid, and the dragon that died in this famous Siro God of War was not one or two, in front of Adam who shot with all his might, even the ancient dragon was just a little stuffed with food, and it was nothing to pinch an adult dragon who was a little famous.
By the way, in fact, a certain form of Adam is also on the natural disaster list, but not many people know about it, in fact, if it weren't for my obstruction, Adam, who transformed into a dragon battle form, would have stepped on Sisius Slar with one foot.
Originally, the dragon knights thought that they had a comprehensive advantage, so they would calmly invite uninvited guests to negotiate in the fortress, and they only looked at the former undead emperor in front of them, and the so-called chances of victory did not exist from the beginning, it seems that the other party let go of the dragon cavalry battle group that seemed to be overwhelming.
As if completely oblivious to the sudden tension, Lilith simply continued her introduction.
"Well, he's also Aunt Amira's friend and junior, and we're here to help Aunt Amira this time."
"Don't worry, this time, we're probably on one side, at least I don't have a good feeling for those uninvited guests."
"Mistress Amira?"
Nervously asked, but it was another tall female knight, blonde hair and blue eyes, the silver scales on her forehead were obvious, and there were two curved dragon horns on her forehead, no wonder when she was outside, she would wear a full-coverage helmet.
I remember that she seemed to be a dragon knight of the last generation, named Lucia, and she looked very nervous, so she should have some involvement with Amira.
"Yes, Aunt Amira and I were in Victoria Harbour at the time. I was immune to that plane deposition, but Aunt Amira stayed there. ”
"How is that possible! How could that adult" Lucia, the female dragon knight, was shocked and didn't seem to believe that Amira would be doomed.
"Scourge generally lives longer, and Amira is fine, I can vouch for that. It was just a little bit of trouble, so we came. Can you let us pass guò? ”
After taking over the topic, my patience and time are limited, and I am not far from my goal, and if the situation allows, I would have wanted to go straight away.
I thought that when it came to such a point, the other party should be easy to let go, but it turned out that you looked at me, I looked at you, and my face was embarrassed, and it seemed to be very problematic.
After the rainy night city, after walking for fourteen or fifteen days, you can reach the Victoria Harbour area.
But the road that used to be easy to walk has turned into a poisonous black earth, and the slight corrosion and smell are disgusting. The once prosperous commercial port area has now become a wasteland, and dense dark clouds are always hanging over the sky. Even the ominous crows were planted on the ground, and this place has become a forbidden area for the living.
And there is a group of wild wolves who have been chased by the huge wurm, panicked into this forbidden area, just stepped into this black land, slower and slower, and finally fell directly, and not long after. The stronger wurm predators also fell, and there were more zombie wolves and bone wurms.
If the door is opened successfully, according to the expectations of the Emperor of the Dead. The area around Victoria Harbour should not be affected much, which is why Oros finally approved the plan, but for some reason, things have changed.
Just as a clogged sewer pipe can give up sewage from certain places. It was eroded by the power of the plane of the Demon Forest Card Master in a different direction.
Such an area full of negative energy is unbearable for anyone except the undead. Although the undead will get buffs in such an area, and even the undead are also very anxious, after all, the dragon knights have given an ultimatum, as long as this negative energy swamp enters the human realm, that is to say, the area of Rainy Night City is when the two sides go to war.
In between, however, the region has become a buffer zone between the two, with dragons and gargoyles patrolling the skies every day. Of course, every encounter. There will also be a few more wrecked gargoyles on the ground.
No caravan would choose to enter a sensitive area in such a situation, and as soon as we leave Rainy Night City, I'm afraid the undead will know.
After learning about the situation ahead, if you don't want to startle the snake, there is basically no possibility of getting through guò quickly, and you can only postpone your advance, collect more information first, if you can, just get in touch with Amira, I'm not lying, I really don't believe that Amira will have a problem at all.
And the things on our side have just ended, and before they have settled down, Xiaohong mysteriously came to the door, looking at the smile on her face, she seemed to have found something interesting, and planned to share it with me.
"Hey, Roland, I wonder why there are so many of their dragonborns, and those dragon knights."
"Huh? Isn't that a secret from another family? You got it? ”
"Cut, what a secret, just look at it, didn't you find that Helent looks very similar to his dragon Sisius Slar, whether it is in appearance or taste, the similarity is as high as ninety, it must be a twin!"
Think of the rough and big man after the change of Sisius Lar, and then think about the little white face of Helent, they are twins? I suddenly felt that there was something wrong with the aesthetics of the dragons.
"Wait, the dragon's aesthetic? In other words, in the eyes of the dragon clan, the two are simply twin brothers! Well, I pretty much know what's going on. It's no wonder that these dragonborn knights are all of the same blood as their own mounts, and they are all relatives. ”
It's no wonder that Xiaohong is snickering, to put it bluntly, it's really a scandal of the surface dragon clan.
Most of the production of dragons is the combination of dragons and other creatures, and the bloodlines of all kinds of wurms in the main plane are very valuable for research, and the sentence that dragons are inherently promiscuous, and some unions are not just because of love, in this case, as a "by-product" hybrids, it is difficult to be treated sincerely by their parents.
And if you leave it alone, it's obviously not okay, if the Dragonborn relies on their innate strength to repay it. Restore society or something, not to mention the irresponsible father/mother of those half-breeds, even the entire dragon clan will be disgraced by it.
"In other words, the so-called Dragon Knight Legion is probably a kind of alternative nursery."
If the dragonborn with a high enough bloodline concentration gets the help of the source of their bloodline (parents), after paying a certain price, they can transform into a real dragon through the guò bloodline ritual, but the premise is that the dragonborn itself must be strong enough, I am afraid that the minimum is also the gold level, and it needs to grow to a certain age.
Dragonborn growth is a long one, a relatively safe environment to grow up in is necessary, and experience and wisdom are more readily available in complex human societies.
It's no wonder that the young dragonborns of the Dragon Knights are constantly there, it seems that all parents who don't want to take their children leave their cubs to the Knights to take care of, and the young dragonborns who have a long life here have been edified/brainwashed by chivalry since childhood, and they will not do anything stupid.
As for the dragon mounts, they were probably brothers and sisters who came to spend a long time with them in their childhood, and spending decades playing with their younger siblings was nothing to the dragons.
My guess is that if there are no siblings, there will be unlucky people of the same clan who will be sent over to serve as caretakers for a period of time to test their hearts, and since they are all brothers and sisters, it is naturally nothing to ride on them.
"Poof, no wonder they're all rookies, they are all unlucky people with children. Hey, what are you looking at? ”
"Oh, that's a letter from an old dragon, supposedly left to me by an acquaintance of mine. Evenly? What a strange name, Xiaohong, have you heard of it? (To be continued......)
