Horn was woken up by the creaking sound of an old iron door chain. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Who?" he hissed. Although his voice was stiff and hoarse, he was at least able to speak. In the battle of Karta, he took his father's place and continued to command the battle, and after the dragon hovered in the air, the entire Chinese army was reduced to a sea of fire, and at this critical moment, Mira Kelling summoned a hail rain that doused the grass and tents that had been set on fire by the dragon flame, and then the battle horn sounded again, and Horn stepped on his father's mount and was the first to step through the gates of Karta. After that, he was attacked by a Peace Army hiding behind a haystack, and the doctor said he almost lost his vocal cords.

"Who?" he shouted again, trying to be louder. The light of the torch spilled in through the open door, but in the bedroom, the only source of light was a candle next to the bed that was about to burn out.

A dark shadow slowly approached him, and because of the backlight, he could only make a vague outline, but he couldn't see the man's face clearly. This is the royal palace of Karta, which had been occupied by the Confederate forces six days ago, and the people of the city were celebrating the return of the Wolf King, and the Dalton they knew was back in charge of Karta, but unfortunately, his father was gone.

The other man paced within the candlelight, looking at his pale face with interest. "Alan, you're finally awake. First of all, I have good news for you, they have found Lord Kenny, God Namu is merciful, and he is still alive. ”

"Really?" he looked at Linde, subconsciously propping himself up on one elbow, but then a sharp pain came from his throat. When he lay back down, he felt the huge scar - from his right ear to his left shoulder, over the raised Adam's apple, and the flesh that had not yet grown new skin rolled outward, and felt warm to the touch. "Where's he? Is he okay? Probably not much better than me, right?"

"It's a little better than you, at least you can eat normally, and you don't have to drink liquid juice every day. Linde's charcoal-black hair seemed to have just been washed and combed straight back of her head. He wore soft high boots, a shiny leather coat, a wide belt with small silver plates, and a pale green velvet cape, a dark gray wool top embroidered with a flame coat of arms in red thread, and the flaming sword in a special scabbard that hung at his side.

"Where have you been?" Horn asked, "it's been probably two weeks since I delivered the letter to you...... Did you know that the dragon did show up, and Kenny was ...... by him. You should know, huh?"

"Of course," Lind nodded, "but it's missing again," he sat down on the edge of the bed, looking at Horn with a hideous face, "Also, I've been here five times, Lord Kenny twice, Mike, Camille, Kane, Queen Mira have all been." For the past few days, you have slept like a dead pig, and the doctor has stopped feeding you poppy milk, and he is worried that you will not wake up. ”

"Damn, no wonder it hurts!" Maybe he shouldn't have said it so loudly, but Horn didn't bother to care. He propped his hands on the feather mattress, squirmed back a few inches, and rested his head against the bed. "By the way, what's going on these days? Did you find Ryan?"

"No," Lind shook his head, "but Mistress Mike told from the mouths of the captives that Ryan had died in the war. But not necessarily, the guy had no command skills, only a vigorous attempt to let the archers release the arrows, and after the dragon appeared, he seemed to have known that the beast was out of control, and before it reached the city walls, he had already left Karta with a dozen knights and fled to Black from the west. ”

"It sounds like the victory of this war has nothing to do with me, it's all thanks to the beast's blessing!" Horn sighed sourly, "Kenny, what is he doing now? Also, is it day or night?"

Linde stood up and walked to the window and pulled back the heavy curtains. "It's night, it's useless to pull away, you can't see anything, and you'll be targeted by bad guys," he said as he walked back, "It's not as peaceful as you think it is now, and Lord Kenny has already been attacked twice since he returned." ”

"Who did it, did you find out?" Horn frowned, the muscles in his jaw tense, and he beckoned Linde to find a chair to sit down.

"Nope. Linde sat down, "Speaking of which, I have to tell you bad news. Duke Jaime died, in his hospital bed. ”

"Jaime Dondelion?" Horn asked, answering in the affirmative. "How is it possible, although I didn't see him on the battlefield, the forward army position suffered the least loss, and the dragon flames barely affected them. On the contrary, the dragon did a great favor, the walls were in flames, the peace army was busy fleeing, and no one had the strength to shoot arrows at them, how could he die?"

"As I said, he died in his hospital bed. Lind repeated.

"I know," Horn swallowed his saliva with difficulty, "what, he's so badly injured that he could die in a hospital bed?" he swallowed again to soothe his wet throat, "Stained hair, hit your toes, split your nails, rolled off the bed, or drank overheated poppy milk?"

"Assassination. Linde said coldly. Apparently, he was a little displeased with Horn's inappropriate banter. "In addition to you and Lord Camille, Lord Kenny, Lord Mike, Queen Mira, Lord Kane, Duke Dark, and even Lord Kenny's personal soldier Aiden have all been assassinated in different ways in different places in the palace, at different times. ”

"How?" Horn asked, picking out one of the somewhat odd words.

Lindh nodded. "Of these, Lord Kenny was met twice. The first time was on the day of his return, when he was greeted by a cold arrow as soon as he entered the city gates, which Lord Aiden dropped from the crotch of his left arm. The second time was in the side hall of the royal palace, when a guard suddenly drew his sword and was stabbed to death by Mike with a sword. As for others, the methods of assassination are endless. Mira Kelline, who had been admiring the plum blossoms in the garden the day before, was suddenly grabbed by an ankle by a hand and tried to drag her into the water, Lord Kane almost slept in his bedroom because the servant had lit a incense soaked in poisonous weeds and dried in the sun, Duke Duck fell from his horse and fell into a pit ten feet deep, and Duke Jaime was the only one to die in assassination, and as you said, he drank overheated poppy milk, but it was colored and tasteless, and he died...... ”

"Even Aiden was assassinated?" he asked softly as he listened to Linde's words.
