Chapter 20: The First Snow
At the beginning of December, the Magic Empire received its first snow of the year. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe snow is falling, like a wanderer wandering outside, fluttering and sprinkling, desperate to find his roots.
The forests and mountains in the western part of the Magic Empire are pale like a face that has lost too much blood. In the forest, as soon as Kaede's front feet fell, the whining snowflakes covered his slightly lonely footprints, as if Kaede did not belong to this world, and the heavy snow wanted to wipe away the traces of his coming to this world.
Not far behind Kaede is Xiaolong, who is following Kaede back to the basement after another day of flying.
The heavy snow began last night, quietly, when the little dragon woke up this morning and saw the snow for the first time in his life, he was very curious about the snow, the last two paws stepped on the thick layer of snow, the first two paws grabbed the goose feather snow floating between the sky and the earth, and a long tail danced from time to time, or slapped on the ground or threw the snowflakes on the trees.
But the novelty is only temporary, after playing with the snow for a while, Xiaolong gets tired, and he begins to hate snow because he likes heat rather than cold.
Just look at him at the moment following behind Feng and constantly swinging his tail, not letting the snowflakes scattered from the sky fall on him. At the same time, he opened his mouth in the snow, as if he was going to vomit something.
It was clearly visible that when Xiaolong opened his mouth, a touch of red began to gush out of his abdomen. Anyone who has seen the fire dragon Hadagan must know that this is a precursor to the fire dragon breathing fire!
It's just that the little dragon opened his mouth a few times, and the fire was extinguished every time the little dragon's belly was transferred to the neck, and he just couldn't spit out the flames in his stomach!
After not being able to breathe fire to eliminate these heavy snows, Xiaolong was too lazy to try to breathe fire again, and glanced at Kaede, who was about to disappear at the end, and hurriedly chased after him.
Looking at Kaede's lonely back in the heavy snow, Xiaolong felt a little strange in his heart, didn't he catch the big bad guy Red? Why is Kaede still so sullen?
Although the wisdom of the dragon clan is not low, but the little dragon is still very young after all, less than a year old, it is equivalent to a child who is not yet sensible in the human race, how can he understand Feng's mood at the moment?
Kaede's face was full of stubble, and with snowflakes piled up on her shoulders, she threw her head up and took a sip of wine, staggering down the snow.
His father is dead, and instead of avenging his father, he is blamed by the enemy for burning the library of the Marne College.
In addition to being an arsonist, there was a mistake in the end-of-year trials of the three major magic academies, the inexplicable disappearance of the Magister Francis of the Marne School of Magic and Magic some time ago, and even the disappearance of the Holy Magister Wescom half a year ago, all of which were related to Kaede.
The first thing is because the dark elf Daphne saved Kaede, and Maple and the Dark Elves have an inexplicable relationship, and the tragic death of the Magister Nayden confirms that Kaede and the Dark Elves have colluded;
As for the third thing, it has recently been circulated, to see people in life and to see souls in death, it is said that the Magic Church has finalized a decision and decided to risk being invaded by demons on the magic continent to forcibly open the door to the underworld, find Wescon's soul on the river of pain, and see if Wescon is dead!
The reason why the Magic Church did this is because Wescon, as a Holy Magister, how could he disappear from the world for no reason? If he was really killed, how powerful and mysterious is the enemy? So much so that the Magic Church has not found any clues about the murderer so far!
If you don't find out this possible murderer, the potential great danger, and that murderer will make one of the Holy Magisters of the Magic Empire disappear without realizing it, then the Magic Empire will be greatly damaged!
At that time, the barbarians of the Northern Netherworld, the elves in the dark forest, and the sea tribes in the South China Sea knew that there were only four Holy Magisters left in the Magic Empire, and they were very likely to take the opportunity to attack the Magic Empire, and then the Magic Empire would fall into endless wars!
Now that it has been decided to open the passage to the underworld, the next step is to cast spells, but the gates of the underworld are not so easy to open, and no one in the Magic Church will open the gates of the underworld. After looking through countless ancient books, they finally found that the ancient book that recorded the method of opening the door to the underworld was located in the library of the Marne Academy.
Just when the Magic Church was going to pick up the ancient book from the Marne College library the next day, Kaede had set fire to the library the night before!
Why did Kaede burn down the library? Could it be a coincidence? Dare to ask, would anyone believe this coincidence? Everyone had to think that Wescon's disappearance was closely related to Kaede!
Otherwise, why was Kaede so anxious, and what motive was he going to burn down the library of the Marne Academy? This can only show that Kaede is a thief and has a ghost in his heart! He was afraid that the Magic Church would find out something unfavorable to him from the underworld, so he burned down the library of the Marne Academy!
Now, Kaede has become the most wanted criminal in the Magic Church, and all the cities and towns of the Magic Empire are posting lists to arrest him, he is like a rat crossing the street and everyone shouts and beats, and he has no choice but to hide in the depths of this forest, relying on the dog to secretly bring some wine and meat to relieve himself.
Alas!
Kaede sighed deeply in his heart, although the world is big, where should he go? He only knows that the enemy is a woman with wavy blonde hair, and he doesn't know anything else. If you want to find out the enemy who killed your father based on this alone, it is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack!
After all, there are countless women with wavy blonde hair, and the Adilina he secretly thought about is also a wavy blonde, could it be said that Adrina will be a golden-faced person?
Finding nothing from the direction of the golden-faced man, Feng raised his head and took a sip of stuffy wine, and thought of Alec, the deputy commander of the Imperial Capital Imperial Forest Army.
Kaede could almost conclude that Alec must have colluded with the Golden-Faced Man! Otherwise, how could he meet the Golden-Faced Man as soon as he left the dungeon? Looking at the appearance of the Golden-Faced Man, it was clear that he had been waiting for Kaede all along.
Moreover, the robe that Alec handed to Kaede was not from Lauren College, not from Belinda College, but from Marne College, which was just enough for Kaede to enter Marne College.
Besides, the robe wasn't the robe worn by an apprentice or junior magician, but a magister's robe that happened to allow Kaede to enter the library!
I just don't know if it was Alec's own idea to burn down the library of the Marne College and then blame Kaede, or was he just acting on orders? Is there any other manipulator behind him? Is it the king? Or is it someone else?
If the mastermind behind this is really the king or someone else, what does they have to do with Wescon's disappearance? Otherwise, how could they be afraid that the Magic Church would open the passage to the underworld and burn down the library of the Marne Academy, and then blame Kaede?
Now that the snow is covering the mountain, Kaede can't leave this forest, he has decided to wait for the snow to recede, and after doing one thing in Lonely Mountain, he will go to the imperial capital to find Alec and find out the whole thing!
A few days ago, Redd had honestly explained the whereabouts of the dragon scales and dragon bones, and his dwarven cousin Dwofford was indeed using dragon scales and dragon bones to create dragon scale armor and dragon bone swords, but he was not building them for Kaede.
Red has already fallen for the [Master-Servant Contract Technique], and if he doesn't want to be haunted by powerful ghosts, then he can only be honest with Kaede. According to Red's confession with a handful of snot and tears, he sold the dragon scales and keel to Dwofu and earned a thousand gold coins, plus the thousand gold coins paid by Kaede, it is equivalent to saying that he is a middleman, that is, he can easily get a full two thousand gold coins by moving his mouth and running errands!
After receiving the dragon scales and keel, he led the team to process them day and night, and in mid-November, he had finished building the dragon scale armor and dragon bone sword and found a buyer.
Dwofo finally sold the dragon scale armor and dragon bone sword to the second prince of the Magic Empire for 10,000 gold coins, and made an appointment with the second prince to trade at Lonely Mountain on December 15th!
Obviously they were making dragon scale armor and dragon bone sword for Kaede, why did they end up selling them to others? To be honest, Redd and Dwofu never considered Kaede, they originally planned to cross the river and demolish the bridge, and after receiving the dragon scales and keels provided by Kaede, they slaughtered Kaede.
Snatching back the dragon scale armor and dragon bone sword that belonged to him from the dwarf Dwarf, this is what Kaede had to do before he went to find Alec!
It's just that the plan can't catch up with the changes, can he have a smooth ride and get his wish?
