At this moment, the door of the council chamber suddenly opened, and two rows of people in black robes walked in. They sat on either side of the round table in www.biquge.info orderly manner, Cassius was stunned, and then he realized that he was sitting in the position of the chief, and Arnold, who was standing next to him, took a step back, and then pulled out the stool and sat down at the head of Cassius.

They are like opera singers who have been rehearsed many times, everything is so well organized and full of ornamentation. This made Cassius suspect that he was not sitting in the council chamber of the city lord of Alder, the city of alchemy, but in Santiago, the imperial capital opera house ten years ago. The black-clad guys weren't the mysterious alchemists, but the actors dancing on stage, though many of them were too old to look at.

"The first meeting of the 'King Slayer' plan starts now. Arnold paused, then applauded, "Now I have Lord Sunflower to speak, everyone applauds." ”

Everyone applauded, and then they all looked at Cassius with burning eyes. Cassius was stunned again, and now he felt that he was actually an actor, and the audience below was applauding.

Fortunately, although he is old, his brain is still very useful when he is not sick, and he understands something after just being stunned for a while.

"Karan has already told you about the 'King Killer' plan in advance?"

Arnold nodded: "Lord Karan used the carrier pigeons raised by the church to pass the book, and we have already received the draft of the 'King Killer' plan before you arrived here, and Lord Karan asked us to start the first meeting as soon as you arrive in Alder." ”

Arnold paused again, and then his eyes flashed with brilliance: "Lord Cassius, this 'King Slayer' plan can be said to be unprecedented, and we will all go all out to complete this mission, adding the most glorious stroke to the history of dragon slaying in the hall so far." ”

Arnold's words fell, and the blood of everyone present seemed to be burning, and they straightened their already straight waists.

Only Cassius did not show a trace of joy in the audience. He propped his head with his hands, and his gaze swept over everyone's faces in turn, and when he saw the people's expressions, they immediately became solemn, like soldiers under review. Eventually, Cassius withdrew his gaze and asked softly, "Do you know our opponent?"

Arnold snapped his fingers, and the man sitting at the very end stood up. Cassius followed the prestige, and was a little surprised, because it was a woman who got up, a woman with a delicate face, but her whole body was wrapped in a black robe, and she couldn't see her figure clearly. She tucked her long hair up and nestled in the corner, so Cassius didn't notice that there would be a woman at the meeting.

But when she stood up, her momentum was different, her hot figure couldn't be covered by a robe, she was plain to the sky, and in front of many old people who were several generations older than her, her expression was still calm, like a proud white swan.

"Her name is Hugh Adams, and she's my sister, and she's also a Hall-certified Level 3 Dragon Researcher. Arnold introduced.

Cassius was even more surprised, because in his impression, the third-level dragon researchers in the hall should be some bad old men who are too old to walk and can't talk completely. It was the first time that Cassius had seen such a young third-level dragon researcher.

Xiu nodded slightly towards Cassius, which was regarded as a salute. Then she cleared her throat and began to speak: "Based on the information transmitted by the front-line observation posts these days, it can be judged that there is indeed something powerful inside the volcano that is awakening, and it is basically certain to be the Dragon King. ”

"Tell me your reasoning. ”

"First of all, it's this rainstorm outside. All of you here have lived in Alder for decades, and you should know Alder well, it doesn't rain a lot, but now it's pouring rain. According to the observation posts of the frontline, the temperature of the volcanic mountain range has continued to increase in the past month, and has reached a new height in the last two days. Moreover, there are already several active volcanoes erupting in the interior of the mountain range. ”

"Wait, you're saying that the volcanic eruption sent extremely high heat to the clouds, causing them to liquefy and causing this rainstorm?" asked Cassius.

Xiu nodded: "This is one of the explanations. ”

"So there's another explanation?"

"Yes, with the power of our current science, it is still difficult to monitor changes in cloud cover, so it is impossible to determine that this rainstorm must be related to volcanic changes, but there is another explanation for this rainstorm. Xiu paused and continued, "That is when the dragon king awakens, there will be a vision in heaven and earth, which has been recorded in many history books. ”

"Well, I do know that. But can you be sure that it was the Dragon King who woke up just by the words in the book?"

"It's not 100% certain. Xiu shook his head, "But we have other information, for example, in recent days, many animals that originally lived in the volcano have begun to migrate outward, no, in fact, it is more objective to say that they are fleeing." ”

A bald old man suddenly raised his hand: "I can testify to this, everyone knows that flamingos basically don't come out of the volcano, but now they have appeared in my house to grab food with me, and they burned my hair yesterday!"

As he spoke, the bald old man lowered his head, revealing the blackened part of his head. Xiu's pretty face trembled slightly, and he wanted to laugh a little, but he still held back.

"Well, the weather, the animal's reaction, seems certain—"

"No, that's not convincing enough. Xiu said, "We have more intuitive evidence, that is, human evidence!"

"Witness?" Cassius was stunned, then pointed to the bald old man over there, who was fiddling with his charred hair, and asked, "You mean him?"

"No, he's just an exception. "Actually, a few days ago, a mad earth hunter ran out of the volcano and was spotted by our observation post on the periphery of the volcano, and brought him back here. We've found out these days—"

"Alright, chick!" the bald old man stood up abruptly and pointed to Xiu's nose, "You're done with what you need to say, the following part is my specialty, you can sit down!"

Xiu shrugged his shoulders and sat down. The bald old man triumphantly straightened his black robe, and then bowed to Cassius: "Venerable Lord Sunflower, below-"

"Getting to the point. Cassius interrupted.

"Oh. The bald old man scratched his head, "What's the point?"

Xiu puffed out laughing, Cassius's face was also weird, and Arnold felt a little unbearable on his face. Just when he wanted the bald old man to sit down, the bald old man thought about it again and clapped his hands: "By the way, speaking of that deaf man." I've researched that the reason why that guy is deaf is because he was directly shocked by some kind of sound. And that kind of voice should be a dragon chant at the level of the dragon king. ”
