Chapter 13: Hiding Your Identity [Asking for Recommendations]
Jack looked at Dom's tombstone in the sea breeze.
What a fragile life, Dom was buried in a remote corner of the cemetery. But the scenery is not bad, you can see the sea in the distance!
"She's the woman you like, she's very good and smart! Now she's all over the city looking for clues about you and me. But unfortunately, even if she finds the end of the world, she won't find us. I'm sorry Dom, things have come to this point, and now I can't let her know who you are. Sarah's only clue in this matter is the small room in the slum. As long as Sarah takes the death list of the day, and goes from one room to another, she can find Dom's room.
In order to confuse Sarah's investigation, Jack uses money to make arrangements for the bodies of several recently dead people in a nearby low-rent house, and then find someone to bury them. Do the work to do a full set, one of the men's graveyard is also very luxurious. As for the rooms of the dead, Jack decorates one of them in the same style as Dom's room, but sets a fire when everything is done.
When Sarah saw the room, she was very familiar with everything in front of her. Whether it's the layout of the room, or the burning of the surviving furniture. Because it was discovered in time, people put out the fire properly, and it was not completely burned out! Especially the portrait of herself that was originally hanging on the wall, although the painting had burned to the point and only a thin strip remained, she recognized it at a glance. The first thing she saw that day after teleporting over was this portrait!
Dom, because of his natural weakness of color, used extreme color in his paintings. This is also the reason why Sarah's memory is so impressive. After finding this room, Sarah immediately secretly investigated the information of the owner of this room thoroughly.
Sarah is led astray by Jack, and Dom's room has changed dramatically. Although still so shabby, Sarah took a look at it and left.
Two days later, Jack returned to the academy and officially registered for this year's promotion exam!
On the day Jack registered for the exam, the battle report from the front came back.
"What, the orcs actually used blood sacrifice magic to resurrect a dragon!" The orcs were suddenly well-armed, which was enough for the human coalition to bear. Now I actually got another one, the overlord of the sky - the dragon!
The royal palace of the Storm Kingdom was full of gold, but the seven human kings and the three dwarven kings were silent, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing!
"We've asked the dragon for help, but we haven't heard from it yet!" said the adjutant sent by the temporary commander of the front line to deliver the information in a heavy tone.
"We can think of asking for help, and so can the orcs. They should intercept them along the way, and don't forget that they now have a dragon, and our air cavalry troops can't fly freely in the sky! they can only be a meal for the dragon!" "The human griffins are provided by the dwarves, and the dwarves know what happens when the griffons meet the dragons.
Hearing the dwarf's words, everyone's brows tightened.
"It's fast to send messages by air, but it's very dangerous right now. And the orc air cavalry units are not vegetarians either. To be on the safe side, we had to send several groups of ground troops. As long as a group of people reach the dragon's territory, we can get through it. Ryan, the king of the Northern Kingdom, looked at the crowd and said.
This is also a way out of the way, and everyone agrees!
"We're going to send a few squads every few days until the dragon doesn't reply! Time is pressing, and if the orcs attack with the dragon, I'm afraid we really won't be able to bear it. The dwarf said solemnly.
I saw that everyone put the hope of life on the heads of the dragon clan. The king of the Storm Kingdom said with a little cold water, "We can't put all our hopes on asking for help. What if the dragon rejects us, or if we simply can't afford to send the letter out?"
It's not that everyone didn't think of this problem, but they didn't want to face it.
"Has the mysterious magician who was in the Colosseum that day found out who it is?" "Maybe he can help us resist the dragon's invasion!" Hearing this, everyone looked at Tyrenus, the king of the Storm Kingdom. After all, Terenus had said in public that the magician had an emotional entanglement with Miss Sarah.
If that were the case, then Terenus should be able to find the magician.
"Now we must find a way to resist the dragon, and that mysterious magician is our best secret weapon. If he can take on this task on his own initiative, we dwarves are willing to obey his orders!" The three dwarves did not say that they would obey Terenus's orders, but that they were willing to obey the magician.
Terenus is a bit of a tiger riding now, and that day he just wanted to make a little political capital by the way, so he said casually. But I didn't expect to create today's situation!
The man has a hood on his head and a black scarf on his face! Where do you have to find it?
Now Terenus had no choice but to order Duke Berg! But at this moment, was this still an order? It was clearly to beg him to tell himself who that magician was, and where he came from!
The thought of going to Duke Berg, as King Terenus, suddenly felt as disgusting as if he had eaten a spoonful of flies.
After the king's council, Terenus, despite his disgust, summoned his admiral, Duke Berg.
"Your Majesty, the Navy is at your beckon. Duke Berg, dressed as an admiral, strode into the palace.
"Don't be nervous, Duke, we're not sending troops. I wanted to ask you today, where is the magician now?" Tyrenus was a little embarrassed, his tone not knowing what to handle. After all, when facing the nobles of the royal palace, he is always not yin or yang to him. But after all, he really didn't know what to say for a while.
Duke Berg knew why the king had summoned him. But how could he know that the magician was there? Sarah, with the cooperation of the family forces, has investigated very carefully, and although there is a trace of clue at present, it is still like looking for a needle in a haystack!
"Your Majesty, although the little girl has met the magician twice, he has wrapped himself tightly every time. Sarah actually knows the same thing about him as you and me. "Duke Berg's words are to let the king know. I don't have anything to do with that mysterious magician, but I have something to do with it!
"And what did they talk about in their previous meetings?" asked King Terenus nervously. At this time, he hoped that the magician would like Sarah, and that it would be much easier for him to meet him. But I didn't want the magician to be really interested in Sarah, in that case, it would be much more difficult, if not impossible, for him to get rid of the Berg family in the future.
Seeing that the king's face had changed drastically, Duke Berg immediately smiled and said, "That magician used to say that he liked Sarah. But Sarah already had a marriage offer and refused. That day in the gladiatorial arena, the magician took Sarah away very much. But Sarah eventually refused. "Duke Berg's words are equivalent to buying himself an insurance that does not cost money. Don't think anything bad about me, king, king! I now not only have a navy, but also a powerful magician to back me up.
Terenus heard Duke Berg say that the magician really liked Sarah. Suddenly I felt a little inexplicable.
"My Admiral, you also know that we are about to face war with the Orcs again, and we need the support of the magician. I hope you can convince your daughter to marry the magician, and be sure to ask the magician to join the Royal Order. Now the latest information we have obtained is that the orcs have actually resurrected a dragon. We must find a way to destroy him, or the orcs will most likely cross the Wall again. Then we humans will suffer again!" Terenus was sincere when he said this! As the king of the kingdom of the Storm Kingdom, he has not only political struggles in his eyes, but sometimes he has to think about the long term. If the kingdom is destroyed, to whom will he, the king, be seen?
When Duke Berg heard that the orcs had actually gotten a dragon, he suddenly remembered the scene he had seen when he was younger. It was a sea trip, and a dragon suddenly attacked the fleet at sea. There were dozens of ships, and only two survived in the end!
Is this terrible scene going to happen again? Berg was also aware of the danger, even though it was the merchant fleet last time. But even today's Royal Navy, can it really stop a dragon?
"We don't know much about that magician, we don't know where he's staying. Even if he wanted to marry his daughter to him, there was nothing he could do at this time!" Berg learned that things had changed, and rushed to cut off the magician. Otherwise, Terenas would make a fuss about this matter, and then his fleet would be a little mishap, and the fate of the family would probably be a dead end.
It's time like this, and Berg still dares to play with himself. Terenus didn't believe that Berg didn't know the mage's whereabouts. Terenus stared at Duke Berg with his eyes straight at him. It took a long time before he said, "Find him no matter what! The kingdom looks forward to your good news!" After saying that, he turned and left his throne, and left under the escort of the guards.
Duke Berg thought of the king's cold eyes just now, and suddenly smiled helplessly.
Why did the magician look for Sarah, Sarah had already reported to herself. The mysterious magician was just helping his friend fulfill his dying wish.
It is now confirmed that the magician has nothing to do with Sarah's half-dime. But now the king wants to hand it over himself, and he wants to steal out of that powerful magician?
