75. Leon

The main city of the lion clan is located in the north of the elven forest, and there is only one rabbit Yan clan in the middle, but the rabbit Yan clan is a vassal race of the lion clan, and it is precisely because of this that the lion army can go back and forth to the elven forest unimpeded.

Zhao Yuan rode on the purple wheel horse, followed Mason and others all the way north, and arrived at the destination in less than two days. I saw a majestic golden-brown castle rising from the ground, the castle was made of quaint vicissitudes of boulders, and golden flags fluttering in the wind were planted everywhere.

Zhao Yuan looked at the empty terrain around him and said in surprise: "Isn't your royal palace located in the main city?"

Seeing Zhao Yuan's surprised look, the second prince couldn't help laughing, and said with a big grin: "Your Excellency Zhao Yuan, you don't understand, this is the main city center of our lion clan!"

Zhao Yuan looked confused, he walked all the way, and saw that there were large and small gathering places all around, although they were more dense than other gathering places, but it couldn't be called a complete city!

Seeing the rudeness of the second prince, Mason smiled apologetically at Zhao Yuan, but fortunately, Zhao Yuan never cared about this. "Your Excellency Zhao Yuan, the main city of our lion clan is different from other main cities, they all live in groups according to their respective surnames, if you don't know, you will inevitably misunderstand. ”

Zhao Yuan thought about it and somewhat understood. Although the Lion Clan is only ranked third among the Beast Clan, their individual combat ability has caught up with the Dragon Valley Clan and is firmly in second place. Such a race is naturally never afraid of being attacked by foreign races. They live in such a way that they can maximize their combat capability and support each other.

Moreover, in the two-day march, Zhao Yuan also discovered that although the prestige of the second prince in the army is extremely high, and the army can be said to be forbidden and commanded like an arm, but once it is time to rest, so many energetic young lion clans will start fighting for various reasons and reasons. Sometimes it can even develop into a scuffle of thousands of people. It was also an eye-opener for Zhao Yuan.

Fortunately, these leon clans all know the severity of their hands, at most they are only slightly injured, but such a thing is unimaginable in any other army.

One can imagine what it would be like if the lion clan of the entire main city gathered to live together. After weighing the pros and cons, it is more reasonable to live in a dispersed manner. And by surname, those fights are considered family affairs, and if something really happens, the elders will come forward, and the family law will serve, saving a lot of effort from the law enforcers of the lion clan.

Thinking about this, Zhao Yuan still couldn't help but be amazed, the world is so big, there are no surprises, the main city of the lion clan is so open and distributed, without defense, and he is also extremely confident.

At this moment, the huge stone gate in front of Zhao Yuan and his party finally opened with a "boom", and he sighed while following the three of them in, this is the second main city fortress he came to.

Although the elves also have their own territories and fortresses, they are not orcs, so they are nominally not recognized and are not protected by the beast gods. But they have been able to live peacefully on the Cold Beast Continent for so long, and what is behind it is unknown to outsiders.

Walking through the spacious corridor, Zhao Yuan and the others finally came to the main hall. The lion king Leonardo was sitting at the top, and there were two columns of lion clans standing below, and there were more than twenty people in Mo, who heard the announcement and looked at Zhao Yuan and the four of them.

And the most eye-catching is undoubtedly Zhao Yuan, the Terran mage who defeated General Mauser alone.

That's right, in just a few days, Zhao Yuan's reputation has spread throughout the upper circle of the lion clan, and even the common people have heard of his name, but for the lion clan, after all, it is a shameful thing, so there is no official recognition.

So Zhao Yuan endured the scorching gaze of everyone at this time, and followed the three Mason step by step to the lion king.

The three of Mason half-knelt and saluted, and Zhao Yuan, as a foreigner, only bowed slightly, which was reasonable, but it still attracted the dissatisfaction of the arrogant lion clan.

"This Terran is really arrogant!"

"That's right, His Majesty the Lion King is an eighth-order powerhouse, and he is actually so bold. ”

"Be quiet, don't be heard......"

"What are you afraid ofβ€”this is our territory!"

β€œ......”

These not-so-whispered discussions all came into Zhao Yuan's ears clearly, and Zhao Yuan's face remained unchanged at all, as if he hadn't heard anything, and looked at the lion king above.

The Lion King is an eighth-order powerhouse, in him, Zhao Yuan faintly felt an aura similar to that of the Demon Domain Unicorn Lion, but unlike the Demon Domain One-Horned Lion, which has lost its mind and is very easy to control, although the Lion King Leonardo is also a rugged and mighty appearance, his blue round eyes reveal a color of wisdom that belongs to the superior.

Seeing Zhao Yuan looking at him fearlessly, a trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the lion king Leonardo, and then he returned to calm, like the blue sea, and there was a deep mind hidden under the calm appearance.

At this time, General Mauser and the second prince had also finished reporting the battle situation. In fact, these news have been transmitted back a long time ago, and now it is just another formality.

The lion king Leonardo bowed slightly, and his sharp gaze swept over the people present like a substantial force, and suddenly, everyone who was still talking to each other immediately lowered their heads, looked intently at the stone bricks on the ground and their toes, and the mouth that had been talking just now was also closed tightly like a clam shell.

When Zhao Yuan saw it, he couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart, and he didn't know what the lion king had done before, but one look could make these arrogant and reckless ministers and nobles so obedient.

"Your Excellency Zhao Yuan, although this matter is entangled with you and the elven clan, this king also knows in his heart that we are just being used. The king is not to blame for the past, Zhao Yuan, you can visit our clan as a guest. The words of the lion king Leonardo made Zhao Yuan slightly surprised, he didn't expect this lion king to be so generous, he thought that the other party would give him a dismount anyway to get back some face.

Now that the lion king has spoken, the other lion clans naturally don't dare to say anything more, and they are all silent, only Mason and the three of them are happy. In these days, they also "fought" with Zhao Yuan, and General Mauser, who originally had a slight mustard in his heart, admired and admired Zhao Yuan very much.

Leonardo, the lion king, took in everyone's expressions, didn't say anything more, and waved his hand to disperse everyone.

The group came out of the main hall in silence, and they all breathed a sigh of relief. Zhao Yuan asked a little strangely: "Why are you all so scared, it seems that His Majesty the Lion King is a very reasonable and generous person?"

This time, it was not Mason who spoke first, but the second prince shook his head vigorously, and said seriously: "You don't know what my father has done." When he and his brothers were competing for the throne...... "With some incompatible narratives from the second prince, Zhao Yuan barely sorted out what happened back then.

Leonardo, the lion king, who seems to be wise and calm, has done two great things that shocked the whole clan. One thing is that when he was fighting for the throne at the beginning, he slaughtered five princes with one force and ascended to the throne with a thunderous force under the condition of absolute disadvantage. The second thing is what has happened in recent years, in the lion clan, family affairs have always been punished by the elders of the family, but this lion king, after the seventh prince made a mistake, he directly tore him apart with his bare hands, the bloody scene, the cruelty of the means, made the originally big, fierce and aggressive lion clan shudder.

Zhao Yuan listened to the description of the second prince and couldn't believe it at all, but General Mauser and Mason didn't say a word, obviously acquiescing to the words of the second prince.

"This ...... Doesn't anyone care?" he asked, a little stiffly.

But I heard General Mauser sigh heavily and said: "This is all a family affair of His Majesty the Lion King, how can others intervene?"

"What's more, His Majesty the Lion King has worked hard over the years, and he is also open-minded and generous to his subjects, and for the Lion Clan, he is indeed a wise and great king. Mason continued.

Zhao Yuan pursed his lips, yes, a king whose merits are greater than his faults, no one can blame him. What's more, his violence was only directed against his family. But such a person still can't help but feel afraid.

After seeing the lion queen, the atmosphere of the group was a little dull, and the second prince, who had always been the most screaming, seemed to be evoked some sad memories, and he was silent along the way, until the group left the palace and separated.

Zhao Yuan naturally followed the second prince back to his residence, and Mason had to go back to Alva's house to report before he could go to them. As for General Mauser, naturally, he had his own mansion and family.

Now only Zhao Yuan and the second prince are left, riding horses towards the second prince's mansion. Zhao Yuan thought that he would spend a dull time all the way, but he heard the second prince whisper as if talking to himself: "...... If I become the lion king in the future, I will definitely not be the same as my father. Zhao Yuan was stunned, looked at the second prince and blurted out: "Of course you won't be the same as him!"

The second prince's personality is very simple, and he can see through it at a glance, but Zhao Yuan thinks that he is a wise and foolish person. Beneath the seemingly rugged and stupid exterior is a heart with sharp intuition. It's completely different from the lion king's orcs who are scheming at a glance.

"No...... Later, if I ascend to the throne...... It's very likely ......" the second prince shook his head and muttered to himself. Zhao Yuan wanted to ask, but he suddenly kept silent.

Seeing the second prince so worried, Zhao Yuan couldn't help frowning, but now he was just a newcomer to the foreigner, and no matter how much he talked, he simply opened the topic and talked to the second prince about martial arts. Sure enough, as soon as he said this, the second prince immediately lifted his spirits and looked at Zhao Yuan with bright eyes.

It turned out that because General Mauser had been there these days, it was not good for the second prince to ask Zhao Yuan about the details of that battle, and now that there was no one around, he could finally have a good understanding of what happened at that time.

Zhao Yuan naturally had no reason to refuse, the two talked and laughed, and returned to the second prince's mansion smoothly.
