Chapter Seventy-Six: Assassination
Since Arnold had been monitoring everything with the machine, it was impossible for him to be unaware of the creature who launched a sneak attack on Zhou Tian. It is estimated that it is only because I am not sure whether the other party is friend or foe, so when the other party is close, there is no hint at it. After all, after entering the territory of the Elven Empire, although Zhou Tian and the others did not seem to have encountered elves on the surface, they actually did not know how many elves had paid attention to them secretly. Except for the beginning when Arnold would secretly report the situation to Zhou Tian, after receiving Zhou Tian's order not to report everything, he did not see another elf and reported to him.
However, although Arnold didn't explain the situation to Zhou Tian at that time, he had been paying attention to the movements of those elves nearby. It was also for this reason that when there were creatures nearby that attacked Zhou Tian, Arnold was able to block Zhou Tian's body in the first place, preventing Zhou Tian from letting the hidden arrow shoot and kill.
Arnold played a corresponding role, but Zheng Tailong, who was originally invited by Zhou Tian to protect him, seemed a little 'useless'. After all, until Arnold helped Zhou Tian block the sneak attack, Zheng Tailong hadn't figured out what was going on. Although the main reason for this situation is that Zheng Tailong himself carelessly relaxed his vigilance, no matter what the reason, the result is still that his performance is still much worse than Arnold.
Zheng Tailong would not be unhappy with Arnold because of this matter, but he felt resentful of the creatures who caused this situation. After all, if it weren't for that sneak attack, how could he have lost such a big face in front of Zhou Tian? For Zheng Tailong, who cared very much about face, such a situation would never be allowed to happen.
So......
"Roar!"
Zheng Tailong is the authentic dragon prince, and he will vent his displeasure directly, as for whether his actions will cause any bad consequences, this has never been a problem for Zheng Tailong. After all, if his identity is placed there, even if he really gets into trouble, who else dares to do anything to him?
Therefore, the reason why he was embarrassed because of the sneak attack on Zhou Tian by the creatures in the shadows, although Zhou Tian didn't say anything at the time, Zheng Tailong still felt that he had lost face. And according to Zheng Tailong's character, it is impossible for him to 'swallow his anger'. As a result, due to the sudden incident at that time, Zheng Tailong completely forgot Zhou Tian's previous explanation, and almost at the end of the sneak attack, Zheng Tailong directly appeared in his original form at that time, and then aimed at the direction from which the dark arrow came before, and a mouthful of dragon breath sprayed over.
"Dragon!"
Although Zhengtailong was constantly exuding dragon power to scare off those approaching demonic beasts, he would definitely not use his original form when walking in the forest. After all, the dragon's body is too large, even if it is a young dragon walking in the forest, it will still be blocked by giant trees, and it will definitely not be able to move forward without a bulldozer.
Usually, it definitely doesn't matter, Zheng Tailong can do whatever he wants, but now Zhou Tian has something to ask for when he enters the Elf Empire this time. Therefore, he must not allow Zhengtailong to make too much movement, so as not to be regarded as an enemy by those elves at that time, and in the end, there will be no way to communicate with each other at all.
It's just that because Zhengtailong didn't show its original form, those elves didn't know its identity at all. As a result, no matter what the reason, Zhou Tian encountered a sneak attack, and then when Zheng Tailong appeared in his original form in anger and attacked the sneak attacking creatures, the creatures in the dark knew what kind of enemy they were facing at the moment.
Without any hesitation, although those 'people' had already seen that Zhengtailong was just a young dragon, even if it was a young dragon, not everyone could deal with it. At least before there is an absolute advantage in strength, if ordinary people want to deal with the dragon, they must be fully prepared and invite helpers before they dare to do it. Otherwise, if there is no absolute strength advantage, even if you can find the dragon, it is often impossible for most of the living beings to beat them.
Now this is such a situation, why the 'people' in the shadows want to sneak attack Zhou Tianxian, at least at the moment, they don't know that there is such a young dragon as Zhengtailong by their side. In this way, when he saw Zheng Tailong appear behind him, he thought that they could not be Zheng Tailong's opponents, and if he didn't escape at this time, would he still be waiting for death?
Therefore, almost when Zheng Tailong had just launched the attack, the 'person' who secretly attacked Zhou Tian jumped out of the shadows at that time. Then he didn't dare to confront Zhengtailong head-on, and after glancing at Zhengtailong, he fled towards the elven gathering place not far away without saying a word.
At this moment, staying and fighting Zhengtailong is definitely certain to die, so fleeing to the gathering point is the most correct choice. Right now, in the Elven Empire, a gathering point even a village must have a certain combat power, especially in a place like the border, and there must be a lot of strong people inside the gathering place of the elf clan.
In this way, depending on the situation at the time, either Zheng Tailong would not chase him, if he really dared to directly chase the other party to the gathering place of that elven empire, it would definitely attract the strong people of that place to make a move.
Zheng Tailong's strength is indeed very strong, at least for Zhou Tian, it is almost invincible. But for the real powerhouse of the Elven Empire, the strength of Zhengtailong is not enough. Only relying on his own strength to dare to break into the gathering place of the Elven Empire, there will be no second possibility except death.
According to the development of things, the next step must be that Zhengtailong angrily chased and killed that enemy and entered the gathering place of the elven empire, and then was killed by those elves as enemies. Then the King of the Red Dragon got the news and took revenge on the Elven Empire, although it did not destroy the Elven Empire, but it would inevitably cause them to suffer huge losses. It is not even impossible to directly let the Elven Empire lose a large area of territory because of this.
Because the situation at that time was exactly what Beamon the Great had always wanted to see, and it was also what his series of layouts wanted to achieve.
It's just that......
Normally, in the case of Zheng Tailong acting alone, it is estimated that he may really kill him directly like this with a brain pump. And if you really do that, there will be no possibility of undoing this today. Once Zhengtailong really has three longs and two shorts, not only will the Elf Empire suffer, but even Zhou Tian will not be happy.
But fortunately, although Zheng Tailong's brain was able to do everything at that time, but now Zhou Tian is very calm, and in the face of such a situation at that time, although he also felt annoyed, but no matter how unhappy he was, he also knew that he couldn't do it like this today.
Therefore, when Zheng Tailong conjured his true body and was about to continue to hunt down the creature who assassinated Zhou Tian, Zhou Tian hurriedly shouted at that time: "Don't chase it." ”
It's a pity that Zheng Tailong didn't react to Zhou Tian's words at all, even if Zhou Tian had stopped him from chasing and killing the enemy, Zheng Tailong at that time was still ready to chase after the fleeing creature.
"Oh, how did the console break. "There is no way, Zhou Tian knows that when Zheng Tailong starts to go crazy, no matter what he says, it is impossible to change his decision. However, although Zhou Tian had no way to change Zheng Tailong's mind at that time, it was not difficult to keep the other party. As a result, in such a situation, Zhou Tian told a lie without hesitation.
However, regardless of whether Zhou Tian's words are true or not, the effect is worthy of affirmation.
"What's the matter, how can the game console break?" Zheng Tailong, who was already about to fly away, listened to Zhou Tian's words, and immediately returned to Zhou Tian's side as soon as possible, but after saying that, he quickly reacted at that time.
"Soul Fade, the game console is in my space, how can it be broken by you? Reacting, Zheng Tailong, who knew that he had deceived Zhou Tian, was very angry, but fortunately, Zhou Tian's status in his heart was already extraordinary, so although he was not happy that Zhou Tian had deceived him, he would not be angry at Zhou Tian in the end.
"Hu ......" was Zheng Tailong who couldn't listen to him at all, so Zhou Tian had to let him come back in that way, and now after Zheng Tailong has returned, Zhou Tian can persuade him in a good voice.
"My little ancestor, do you know what kind of place this is? This is the border of the Elven Empire, and I don't know how many strong people of the Elven Empire are hiding in this area? If you directly chase and kill others into their gathering place like this, then those strong people will be in danger for you to attack. After speaking, seeing Zheng Tailong's disapproving look, Zhou Tian directly warned him: "In the Orc Empire, because many orcs know your identity, so they don't dare to make a move on you, but now these elves may not know your identity, without your father's prestige to protect you, you really think that you are invincible in the world!" According to the fighting style of the elves, even if you want to use magic skills, they will be able to kill you before your father arrives, and you are completely looking for death if you chase after you like this!"
"Who said I can't beat them, just fight with me!" was not convinced at all, but no matter how naïve Zheng Tailong was, he would not really think how powerful he was. Therefore, although he may not have believed Zhou Tian's words, he did listen to Zhou Tian's words at that time.
And according to the situation at the time, since he knew that it was impossible for him to fight against the strong men of the Elf Empire with his strength, then unless he really wanted to die, he could only listen to Zhou Tian and not do anything that would easily cause misunderstanding.
"Is this the end of the matter?" Although admitting that Zhou Tian's words were reasonable, and at the same time, Zheng Tailong did not have the idea of directly hitting the other party's lair, but let him give up revenge like this, how many Zheng Tailong still felt a little unwilling.
"Of course, it can't be like that. "Give up revenge? Such an idea cannot exist in Zhou Tian's mind, after all, Zhou Tian himself is a person who will repay him, don't say that the person who attacked the other party this time is him, even if the other party sneak attacked, only the orc Zhou Tian under his command will not give up. After all, if Arnold hadn't reacted quickly enough, he would have been almost killed by Zhou Tian before.
In any case, he was almost killed by the enemy, and it must be difficult for Zhou Tian to have any good feelings for such an enemy. And in this case, unless Zhou Tian really does not have any possibility of retaliating against the other party, as long as it is possible, then Zhou Tian will inevitably retaliate against the other party.
The only difference between Zhou Tian and Zheng Tailong is that in Zheng Tailong's opinion, since the enemy has offended him, then he can only forcibly kill the other party if he wants to retaliate, in addition, it is estimated that Zheng Tailong, who is in a group for a while, will not be able to come up with other ways to retaliate.
In Zhou Tian's opinion, directly attacking the enemy like Zheng Tailong is the most brutal way to retaliate, if his side is stronger than the enemy, then there is no problem in doing it like Zheng Tailong, and even Zhou Tian supports Zheng Tailong's decision. But like now, when the enemy hides inside a stronger force, then Zhengtailong's method can't be used.
It seemed that it was not easy to take revenge on the enemy who attacked him at the moment, but in fact, according to the situation at that time, Zhou Tian knew that as long as he used the right method, it was not as difficult as it seemed to be to deal with the enemy who attacked him. Or it can be said directly, as long as you don't force your way in, you have to clean up the enemy who is hiding in the elven gathering place, and you don't even need Zhou Tian and Zheng Tailong to do it themselves.
After secretly thinking about it in his heart, Zhou Tian felt that even if his plan failed, there should not be any danger to his life, and he quickly showed a smile at that time.
"Do you want to deal with that escaped soul?"
"Of course!"
"If you want to, you ......"
