Chapter 44 Two Brief Alliances
The god of trickery looked at the crowd around them, nodded to Asted who was standing at the head of the crowd, and said, "You're asted, right? Think about the first time I saw you, you were a child who whispered to me. ”
Astrid put down the megaphone, stared at the god of trickery, sighed, and said, "Brash, I have always believed that wisdom is the ability to overlay trickery, and I sincerely advise you to abandon the idea of plotting for the priesthood of the goddess of wisdom. ”
"Yes, Asted. The god of trickery sneered. "You dare to call the true god by his name, it seems that you have learned a lot from Metis. ”
"Not every god deserves to be honored for his priesthood. Astrid replied calmly.
After speaking, he looked at Leo and his party again, with a calm face.
"Wizard Omoni, I didn't expect you to break into here, and I'm still in the tower and going around in circles with you. “
"How did you know we're here?" asked Isenas, standing up to the front.
Looking at Omoni who was silent and Esenas who was standing in front, Astrid immediately reacted: "It turns out that you are not the backbone of this team!"
Once a point of entry is found, the truth will quickly emerge.
Astrid looked at Esenas again, and Leo standing beside him.
The more he looked at the figures, the more familiar they felt, until he finally caught the familiar feeling after he replaced them with a black night suit.
"It's you! it's the two of you who broke into the tower at night!" Astrid realized.
The cause and effect of the matter were finally straightened out by Asted, and he muttered to himself: "It's dark under the lights, it's good to turn the tiger off the mountain, it's a good time difference." “
Then he sneered and said, "It's a pity that when you triggered the key on Hoggs to enter the space, you also made me aware that someone had entered, and now that the most elite power under the command of the Goddess of Wisdom has surrounded you, you had better go back and accept our judgment honestly, and don't force me to use violence." “
Leo raised his hands, took a step back and said, "Big brother, I have no objection to you arresting us, but please see the form, dragons, gods, invaders, you don't want to catch them all." And if you look at our look, no matter how you look at it, it's not with them. “
Regarding Leo's defense, Astrid only coldly shot back: "For the person who deceived me, the best way not to be fooled is not to believe him in a word." I'd rather treat you all as enemies than be stabbed at a critical moment. “
Leo coughed dryly twice and touched his head in embarrassment.
This matter is indeed what they did not do properly, and the Artisan Town treated them politely, but they took advantage of this trust to give them a backhand.
Now it is a matter of course to seek cooperation again and not be trusted.
Now the camp is faintly divided into four parts, the dragons have broken with the god of trickery and the god of lies, and Leo wants to destroy the dragons, and the Church of the Goddess led by Astrid intends to exterminate all three of them.
Leo and they have just experienced a big battle, and their combat effectiveness is at a low point, and if they start a war with three parties at the same time, they will be 100% sure that they will be the first to be cleared. So now seeking to cooperate with Asterd, who has the same goal, is the only way to live.
But Asterd was too tough and didn't want to hear a word from them.
As Leo was in trouble, Isenus grasped the hilt of his sword and whispered to him, "Why don't you try your father's strength, Leo?"
After speaking, without waiting for Leo to react, Esenas pulled out Bugati with a "swish" and aimed it at Asted.
With Isennus's action, the knights behind Astrid also made a loud noise and drew their swords.
Provoked by this murderous aura, little Paul immediately instinctively raised his bow in his hand, and two arrows landed on the bow.
"Hey, Isenas, Isenas, are we really not thinking about it anymore, we really can't beat it. Little Paul stood there with trembling legs, babbling at Isenas.
Isenus looked back at little Paul with a strange look and said, "When did I say I was going to war with them?"
"Huh?"
Esenas turned his head, looked at Asterd, and asked, "Asterd, do you recognize this sword?" ”
Astrid adjusted his glasses, looked at them carefully, and then said, "This is Oster Frederick's sword?"
"Exactly. Isenus nodded, and shoved Bugati back. "The man next to me is none other than Leo Frederick, son of Duke Oster Frederick and the only heir to the Dukedom of Blackstone. ”
"Will this identity be able to regain your trust?"
Asted's face showed nostalgia for the past, and he said: "Oster has indeed given us essential help in times of crisis. Well, with this status, I am willing to give my old comrades-in-arms the only extra trust in their lives. ”
While Leo is stunned and has successfully formed a temporary alliance, the God of Trickery is also seeking cooperation with the arrogant dragon.
"Look, they're united, and Frederick's descendants have a good companion. The god of trickery was amazed, having come into contact with him at a young age in Asterd, and at that time he could not help but fall in love with the thinking boy, but in the end he could not make him believe in himself. But during the long contact, he also knew that Asted's hard and smelly attitude was simply unchangeable, so he couldn't help but become interested in Isenas, who had persuaded Astrid in a few words.
The arrogant dragon didn't care about any of this, and after unilaterally ending its employment, it was now bent on returning to the dragon plane.
The god of trickery smiled and said, "Don't waste your efforts, this is the Overworld, and with your strength it is still a little bit of a point to open the portal to your world." ”
The arrogant dragon narrowed his eyes, pressed his front paws against the tricky god, and spewed out a hot breath: "This is your plan, aren't you afraid that I will kill you first, ignoring the threat of those bugs?"
The god of trickery spread his hands and looked at the arrogant dragon with a fearless smile: "No way, in the sealed space, you can use the power of the seal to open a passage to the outside world from the crack in the crystal wall, but we, as gods, can't survive in the void storm like you, we can only return from here the same way, but I think I and the god of lies are not the opponents of these people blocking the door now, so we can only drag you into the main world and bind you with the powerful spatial rules of the main world." If you want to go back, you can only break through with us from here and return to the spatial entrance of Artisan Town. ”
"And. The god of trickery paused, a playful smile on his lips.
"We can't be enemies at all, at least not in front of that Frederick descendant. ”
"I don't see an impossible reason, Blash. The haughty dragon's rough nose was about to touch the face of the god of trickery, and the cold glittering teeth could tear open the god of trickery's neck with a single movement. "I'm fed up with conspiracies like you.
Even if the arrogant dragon was about to take his life in the next second, the god of trickery was still unmoved, just nodded his nose lightly, and said, "You know, the life form of the gods naturally has an unparalleled ability to perceive and control energy. In that Frederick descendant, I felt an aura of the same origin as you, but much weaker. ”
"What did you say?" the arrogant dragon's voice suddenly raised an octave, sounding a little distorted and sharp.
The god of trickery still had a smile on his face, but this smile was so hypocritical and mocking, and there was a hint of joy that the trick had succeeded.
"That's right, Walkefler, I mean that one of your descendants may have been slaughtered by this legendary son. ”
The arrogant dragon slammed to his feet, and with a wave of shaking, trotted all the way to Leo.
"Boy. The arrogant dragon stood restlessly in front of Leo.
"What's wrong?" Leo covered his ears in pain and complained, "Why are you dragons yelling so loudly. ”
The arrogant dragon doesn't care so much, the only reason it has to stay clear now is that it doesn't want to be used as a spear by the god of trickery.
"Have you ever encountered a dragon named Grinich before?"
"Yes, just a few months ago. Leo blurted out without thinking about it.
Isennas's face immediately darkened, the arrogant dragon was so impatient to ask for the news of Grinich, it was obvious that it had a lot to do with Grinich, judging from the same arrogance and vaguely the same energy of the same nature between the two of them, it was likely to be a direct relationship. Isn't that because I didn't die fast enough?
Needless to say, the dragon's powerful power allowed it to sense the events of the day from the void with Leo's affirmative answer.
"Good. The demon dragon, who got the information he wanted, calmed down, folded his wings, and said, "Brash, I agree to your cooperation, but don't let me find out that you are making small moves behind your back." I can feel that there is a blood connection between that descendant of mine and me, and if you dare to delay my return, you and the god behind you will be finished!"
"Of course not. The god of trickery smiled unchanged, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel a little more sure about leaving here.
Leo's side was once again helped by what was supposed to be an enemy through his past kindness, and the god of trickery succeeded in bringing the dragon to the front through persecution and hatred.
A circle of flames came out of the arrogant dragon's eye sockets, and then the gaps in the scale armor, the wings, and the dragon's tail, and after a few breaths, the arrogant dragon was wrapped in a ball of flame armor, and only a pair of eyes and sharp dragon claws could be looked down upon.
The god of trickery watched in amazement as the arrogant dragon immediately entered its strongest battle stance, and vaguely felt that his assessment of the importance of its descendant was somewhat different, so that the combat power it displayed was also a little exaggerated.
In fact, it is.
Although the arrogant dragon Walkefeller is almost at the top of the dragon pyramid, the more powerful the dragon, the less likely it is to leave offspring, in the long dragon life, it only got such a offspring, and what is even more rare is that this offspring has perfectly inherited its talent and character. Therefore, after learning the news that its only descendant was injured, it will go all out to break through as soon as possible.
For the layout, not only the opponent's too strong and too weak will have an impact on the plan, but the overstrength of one's own people will also have unpredictable changes to the plan.
The god of trickery, the gray eyes of the god of trickery, restlessly surveyed the arrogant dragon. His hands clenched and loosened, and if it weren't for the arrogant dragon's last warning, he would have wanted to give it a hard time first.
But in the end, he had to whisper to himself.
"There's still one protagonist left for this show, Frederick's descendants, but don't die too soon. ”
