145 The Returnees
145 returnees
While Kirin and Nuo Yin were talking outside the hall, the secret conversation between the King and the Duke in the hall was also continuing.
The Duke mentions the name of the "Dragon Attack Force", and Xiude guesses so. β...... Judging from the name, it seems to have something to do with the dragons, right?"
"You guessed it. In fact, to put it simply, the dragon attack weapon is a special weapon issued by the fallen celestials to fight against the dragon clan during the sky war. The duke touched his chin with a solemn expression. "The problem is, I saw the name in the Babel literature when I was investigating the genealogy of the Embrion family. In other words, it was the ancestors of the Embrion family who were responsible for attacking the dragon armament. β
"Hey, hey, don't you want to tell SΓΉ that Katos, as a descendant, wants to resurrect this weapon, right?" Xiude's eyes widened.
"How can it be so simple?" the Duke shook his head. "According to the records of the Tower of Babel, the dragon attack was not completed until the end of the Sky War, and the result was completely useless. Moreover, at that time, the celestials had also carried out many research projects at the same time in order to fight against the dragon clan, and the dragon attack weapon was just one of the failures...... That being said, even in the Tower of Babel now, there are still some people who believe that if the dragon attack was successful at that time, the situation could be more or less salvaged. β
"In other words, what Katos has in his hands is only a half-finished product that has failed?" Xiude summed up, and then looked up to the sky and sighed. "To put it simply, it is the children and grandchildren of the ambition to inherit the grudge of their ancestors, and want to awaken the forbidden weapon, and then use the power of evil to conquer the world...... Ahh
"You're a girl who's read too many novels, aren't you?" the duke withdrew his fist and scorned someone.
"No, I just think this kind of plot is too vulgar......" Xiude reached out and scratched the swollen bag on his head.
"You guy...... Well, let's just say that Katos's goal is to resurrect the Dragon Attacker, so do you have any countermeasures?"
"Uh, right, countermeasures?"
"Uh, what, uh, I ask you what to do with Katos. The Duke raised his fist again. "Since you said that this setting is not flashy at all, then you must have a more flashy countermeasure, right? β
"Uh, this is ......" A cold sweat broke out on Xiude's forehead, but he still struggled: "First, we need to know what the Dragon Attack Weapon is......
"I don't know. The Duke replied to him on the spot. "I just told you, didn't I? That thing was not finished until the end of the war, and there was only one name left in the records of the Tower of Babel, and nothing else. β
"That'...... That's okay too. Xiude was sweating profusely and continued to struggle uselessly. "As long as you know where Katos is engaged in such reactionary activities, send the king's cavalry to destroy them at once!"
"The question is, do you know where that place is?" the duke's gaze grew more and more contemptuous. "The old man has spent so many years without grabbing that guy's tail, if it weren't for the arrival of the prospective son-in-law to disrupt their formation, so that the old man caught a little clue, maybe they would still be in the dark...... Besides, judging from all indications, it is likely that that Katos guy has already created a dragon attack arm, anyway, it is a powerful weapon for the purpose of fighting the dragon clan, and Wang Qi is not an opponent at all, so you can destroy it for me?"
"Uh, this ...... In this case......" Xiude was cornered, but his expression suddenly relaxed, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then there is only one way left." β
"Oh?
"Let's pray, pray for the appearance of heroes......" Xiude folded his hands with a reverent expression, but the words he said were eye-piercing. "According to the laws of the ages, whenever faced with such a shocking crisis, there will be heroes who will appear to save the world. So the task of dealing with the evil prime minister is entrusted to him, and we just need to work hard behind the hero's back...... Well, absolutely, yes!"
β...... Anyway, you're just going to blame others for all the troublesome things, and just hide behind and watch the excitement yourself. β
"Even if I rush to the front, it will only turn out to be multiple cannon fodder, right?" Xiude argued with a bitter face. "Heroes are not something that anyone can be if they want to. I'm fully self-aware of my role, teacher. β
"You are so self-aware, sometimes it really makes me want to beat you......" The Duke hung his shoulders weakly, and was about to say something when suddenly there was a grand commotion in the corner of the hall.
The sound of fists and feet intersecting was heard in the panic of the crowd, and the two turned their heads in surprise, only to see two black shadows crashing through the wall and rushing into the hall one after the other. The first to rush into the hall was the Qilin, who didn't know where to run before, but at this moment, he was extremely angry, and frequently roared angrily to attack the figure in front of him, with a punch and a kick with full force, shaking the floor of the hall and trembling.
"Hey, what's going on?" Xiude hurriedly avoided a flying tray and asked in a panic, "You can't send a killer sent by the Prime Minister, right?"
Other than that, there seemed to be no other reason for the Kirin to be furious to such an extent. However, what shocked the two even more was that in the face of the fierce attack of the black youth, the other party still had room to defend calmly. The unicorn's kick was dodged, the fist was dissolved, and the opponent used clever techniques to build a defensive circle in front of him, so that the unicorn's stormy attack was almost completely powerlessβthis kind of display of magic skills reminded the duke of a person.
β...... Wouldn't it?" the Duke was stunned. "That guy is ......"
The Qilin attacked with all its strength without reservation, while the opponent continued to avoid with minimal movements, and there was a huge gap between the physical consumption of the two sides, and the Qilin's offensive quickly reached the limit. One was not careful, his arm was grabbed, and then the other party took the opportunity to bully him to the side and took advantage of the situation to throw him out.
"Tsk ......" Although the unicorn reacted in the air, adjusted his posture, and barely landed on the ground, the other party's pursuit also followed.
The moment the Qilin reacted, the opponent's fist had stopped in front of him, but that was all.
"So I've won, right?" the man retracted his fist and smiled brightly.
"Really, I wanted to say that I hadn't seen you for a long time, but as soon as I met, I greeted my brother with my fist...... What the hell are you thinking about the novel? β
"You...... ...... are you?" the Kirin looked at the face he had seen not long ago, and was shocked. "You really are...... Chechen?"
"Of course it's true, you see, I have feet. The man, who was called Chechen, shook his leg jokingly, and then stretched out his hand to the Kirin. "Alright, don't sit on the ground, get up. I have something important to do when I come back this time, if you want to practice your fists and feet, I will accompany you next time. β
β...... Is it really Chechen?" Looking at the hand stretched out in front of him, and the face that was no different from the one in his memory, Kirin still felt hard to believe.
At this time, the guards in charge of the security of the palace finally arrived. Dozens of guards surrounded Kirin and Chechen menacingly, but they were quickly stopped.
"Wait, don't make a move. The duke walked over with Xiude, but looking at Chechen beside Qilin, the duke's face was also shocked in disbelief. "Are you...... Son-in-law?"
"Long time no see, father-in-law. Chechen got up and responded to the duke's greeting, and then paused to explain his intentions directly. "There's no time, listen to me. Katos's plan is close to success, and the only way to stop him is now. β
........................
Chechen's return surprised everyone, but what was even more surprising was his statement to everyone.
In the secret room of the royal city, Chechen confessed to the Duke and others about the conspiracy of the Prime Minister's faction. According to him, he drove his air horse to the Sky Realm three years ago, and initially did not plan to never return, but on the way back to the royal capital, he was attacked by the Calamity Dragon. As a result, the body was shot down by the Calamity Dragon and crashed in the desert far from the royal capital, where it recuperated for more than half a year before recovering. Alert to this incident, he began to try to investigate the various aspects of the Calamity.
In the course of his investigation, he gradually learns that the true identity of the Calamity Dragon is the final weapon made by the Sky Civilization, the "Dragon Attack Weapon", and further reveals the Prime Minister's attempt to resurrect this forbidden weapon. Due to the seriousness of the matter, he chose to conceal his identity and infiltrate the prime minister's palace to investigate, and in order to gain Katos's trust, he also made several hostile enemies to the royal camp. In this way, in three years, he gradually approached the core of Katos's conspiracy, and finally mastered the stronghold of the Prime Minister's attack on the dragons.
In fact, the opening of the dragon attack force is almost complete, and if Katos is given more time, Wang ** will no longer have the strength to fight. This time, he did not hesitate to come to the royal city at the risk of revealing his identity, just to ask the Wang family to take advantage of the fact that the dragon attack force had not yet been mass-produced to send troops to destroy the secret stronghold of the prime minister's faction.
"Don't miss the opportunity, you can't miss it again!" The only way to stop Katos's conspiracy is now!"
In the end, Chechen ended his words with this sentence, and the Duke and the others showed different expressions about it.
The sudden return of someone who should have died is already surprising, and it is hard to accept that such an astonishing conspiracy is involved. However, on the other hand, all the things that Chechen said, especially the fact about the Dragon Attack Armament, made people have to believe his words. After all, no matter what, the son-in-law of the Iseire family could not be on the side of the Prime Minister's faction, so even if they had doubts, the Duke and the others were inclined to believe Chechen's words.
Since the fairy queen did not participate in the secret talks of the humans, the Kirin present became the only one who could question it.
In fact, Qilin was not unsuspicious of the identity of the person in front of him, but Chechen's attitude was completely different from that of the Ghost-faced Man, and the martial arts he used were indeed Great Wilderness Martial Arts. These factors made Kirin shake his suspicions, and even Nuo Yin did not question the return of Chechen, so he had to suppress his doubts in his heart, and at the same time remind himself to be vigilant at all times.
As a result, without anyone questioning it, Chechen's proposal was able to pass through, and it was decided to assemble Wang Qi to crusade against the secret stronghold of the Prime Minister's faction the next day.
