36. Ten Thousand Flowers Garden

Fisher didn't know what was going on in the Golden Palace of St. Nari, thousands of miles away, and he only got some clues from a few words on the phone. If Elizabeth was directing the war at the moment, then she was most likely aware of the existence of the two demons.

In this case, Fisher had to decide whether to continue contacting Elizabeth.

If the current Elizabeth knows that she is in the Red Dragon Court, she has not seen her for four and a half years, and as soon as she appears, she will not go to her but go to a place like the Southern Continent to fool around, and if she knows that she is still having an affair with the high priest of the queen of the Red Dragon Court, it will make matters worse.

Even if the reason why the two demons hibernated in the Nari army for a long time and did not make a move was to wait for the right time, the enraged Elizabeth could still let the two of them infiltrate the Red Dragon Court and quietly capture themselves.

More is better than less, and in that case, there is no need to contact her now.

Fisher changed his appearance with his life to complete part of the knowledge of the manual, hid in the high sky, and rushed in the direction of the Namggyi Mountains.

Looking down from a very high place, Fisher could see clearly the general offensive of the northern puppet court. No wonder the residents of the puppet court have to go out to watch the army, and from a macro perspective at this moment, the scale of the army is really spectacular.

I saw that in the wilderness of the southern continent, among the rolling mountains, the dense jungle was full of neatly arranged Nali military uniforms and green dragon court military uniforms, and the light of all kinds of firearms and magic shone in the middle, looking like the tide slowly surging towards the shore on the quiet seaside.

Even just these heavily armed coalition forces of various races are enough for the Red Dragon Court, which now lacks everything and is in a safe corner, to drink a pot, not to mention that there are still two legendary demon species leading this army.

Their target is Rafael, or the "key" hidden in her to unlock the end of the world.

As he flew, Fisher's mind couldn't help but recall the message in Heller's words that day.

The demons need that "key" to free their fellow people who have been locked up under the abyss, but is there anything special about Rafael? Can such a special be noticed? Is it a nature, a thing, or something as illusory as fate?

What if that thing could be stripped from Rafael? In this way, the actual target of the two demons will be withdrawn from Rafael.

Although it will be difficult to leave it to the demons to free their compatriots or not to face them on their own, at least it will keep Rafael, Jasmine, and the Red Dragon Court safe

Fisher narrowed his eyes, due to the slow pace of the army's movements, they were estimated to be some time away from reaching the front of the Namggyi Mountains. He had no intention of continuing to observe, and soon flapped his wings and stepped over them even more quickly, first entering the Namphyi Mountains, and then across the Nagggyi Mountains to the rear of the Red Dragon Court.

The rear is still busy, even if not every resident of the Red Dragon Court is well aware of the current situation, and most of them are just doing what they are supposed to do, but the clouds of war still hang over it, revealing a thing or two from this abnormal busyness.

Fisher quietly landed in the corner of the city, did not take off his cloak, and then quietly went back to the prayer tower where he lived, and exposing it early would only be troublesome.

Fisher quickly walked out of the narrow alley, and on one side of the relatively low building, which seemed to be on the top floor, there were two subhuman women, who seemed to be the inhabitants of the place.

They were conversing in some of the subhumans' own language rather than the Dragon's language, as if about their own business. As Fisher walked by, the afterglow of one of the subhuman women unconsciously rested on him, and it wasn't until his back walked out of the alley and walked a long way before he came back to his senses.

"What's wrong, Doe? Why did you suddenly freeze? ”

"It's not. I just thought that the person who had just passed by was wearing a little familiar clothes. ”

"Clothes? What clothes. Compared to this, Doe, are you ready for those armor lists, give me the broom by the way. ”

"Peace of mind, ready to go. My husband has already brought the list to the barracks, and we will have our work for the rest of the day. Oh, broom. ”

"Thanks, Doe, by the way, did you hear that something strange happened on the street near us last night."

"Strange things?"

"That's right, it is said that several families on the next street lost their clothes drying on the rooftop in the middle of the night, inexplicably, and most of them were women's clothes!"

"Ah, that's true. Could it be that there is some kind of perversion at night? It must have been someone who coveted the werewolf wife! ”

"But I heard that the clothes were taken away, and everyone was placed with several purple gems, and there were some strange symbols on them. The symbol of the mother goddess of the Western Continent, I heard that it will shine! When you pick it up, your mind becomes calm, and you want to recite the name of the Mother Goddess. After chanting, you will become peaceful, and soon you will be tired and want to sleep, and I have heard that it helps with insomnia."

"What, they're crazy? Did you tell the officials of the prayer tower about this? ”

"Oh, what's there to say about that? In fact, it's just some stones, and besides, people have lost their clothes, which can be regarded as a reward. You know, clothes are also precious to us. Hey, I've heard that those stones are beautiful, not to mention their value, even if they are used to make some jewelry, they must be extremely beautiful. ”

"I'm still thinking about this at this time. Speaking of strange things, I just feel that the atmosphere in the Dragon Court is getting more and more wrong, and on the shore before, there is such a loud noise, when we can't hear it. Is it because the group of guys from the north is coming, so there are spies mixed in? ”

"Don't talk nonsense, the Nanyu Mountains are not so easy to climb, so sweep your ground. Come with me in the afternoon, I want to see what those beautiful gems look like! ”

“.”

Fisher quickly managed to sneak into the prayer tower, which was not too difficult for a mythical species like him to sneak into such a place. What's more, the resources of the Red Dragon Court are very tight now, and all the resources of the society in a wartime state must be tilted towards war, of course, it is impossible to waste too much precious magic and guards here.

If this place can be attacked, then there is a high probability that the Red Dragon Court is finished.

He crossed the area where the officials worked in front of him and came directly to the royal court behind.

The royal court in the morning was quieter than yesterday, it was not like a place where the dragon race royal family lived, there were no corresponding guards or attendants here, and many of the rooms were even confiscated directly to handle affairs.

Even on a bright morning, it was eerily quiet, there was no sound, and it seemed like there was something to do.

It seems that Rafael and Jasmine are not here either.

Fisher took the cloak off his head, allowing Emhart to fly out of his arms.

He swept around the extremely quiet surroundings, turned back to Fisher and said,

"Well, thanks to the fact that they are all busy, otherwise you wouldn't have had a good fruit to eat if you had been caught fooling around last night."

Fisher fanned his body with his long sleeves, and at the same time, his body squirmed irregularly, which made Emhardt tremble and ask,

"Wait, what are you doing?"

Removed the excess smell from my body. I don't know how long it will take to use the fan alone, so I can only use this method to eliminate the smell on my body. ”

Emhardt opened his mouth and said with a dry mouth,

"After reading those things, your thinking circuit is really getting more and more peculiar, and this method can think of when you don't even like a lady anymore, then I really suspect that you are bewitched by those confusing knowledge."

"There won't be that day."

It seems that he has taken a breath since he just reunited with Rafael for two days, and from yesterday to now, it has really been a wave of unevenness, which makes his heart rise high and can't slow down. At this moment, the royal court was so silent, and his mind relaxed a little bit.

He stretched as he walked to his room, ready to rest and relax. My mind also began to recall and organize the information and content I got yesterday, as well as my next steps.

"You just called Saint-Nari, and Elizabeth didn't answer?"

"Well, it's an inner court official."

Fisher's mind recalled the plain mature female voice, the chief of the court called "Diane".

"Then you're not going to contact Elizabeth?"

"Not yet."

"But even so, you've already called this morning. Elizabeth will definitely know that you have called, and if she had heard of you, she would have come to you. ”

"She can't track where the call came from, and it's not her who answered the phone herself, and the rest of the operators and court officials are all new in four and a half years, and there is a good chance that they haven't seen me in person. The name of Fisher Benavides must have worked well in these years, after all, Nari knew about me and her back then, and there must have been many people who speculated on it, and Elizabeth should be able to distinguish it. ”

Fisher's expression was flat, he knew Elizabeth and Nari very well,

She only trusts her own judgment, and does not believe the words of others, even if they are wrong. Only if I speak to her in person will she be sure of my whereabouts and existence, and there is no need to worry that I will be exposed. ”

"How could I worry about you being exposed, I still wish you were exposed. Tsk, plus an Elizabeth Queen, this situation. I don't dare to think about it. ”

"I dare to think about it."

Emhardt glared at Fisher, who was stretching his waist and completely relaxed, with dead fish eyes, he seemed to have turned back into an ordinary human at the moment, I don't know if it was the magic of the knowledge in the Life Supplement Manual, although he could not read all the knowledge in it for the time being, but it was necessary to explore and apply what he had read.

Fisher walked a long distance with him, through the quiet hallway back to the door of his room.

He yawned and pushed open the door of his room, and the next moment he saw Rafael sitting on the bed with a cold face.

"Hey, I went out all night, and I should too"

Emhardt, who was the first to get in, just wanted to yawn relaxedly, but when he saw Rafael sitting in it, his expression froze, and then instantly turned into an embarrassed smile, he said hello and said,

"Hi, Rafael."

"It's none of your business here, you go out first."

Rafael's expression was not good, she was dressed in a black regular dress, and she carefully glanced at Fisher outside the door, holding her hands and legs crossed, surrounded by a wisp of scorching steam. The tail behind her curled uncomfortably on the bed like a venomous snake.

Emhart nodded innocently, then turned to look at Fisher, who was facing the door, and gave him a sympathetic look.

Silently, he seemed to say,

"Do it yourself."

Then he flew out of the room and towards another quiet place, not knowing where to rest.

Fisher raised an eyebrow, then reluctantly walked into the room, closing the door behind him by the way,

"Rafael, when did you come back?"

Rafael's long ears twitched several times next to his cheeks, and his turquoise eyes swirled around him several times, and instead of answering Fisher's question, he asked,

"You went to Jasmine's last night to rest?"

Fisher shook his head and denied,

"Why, didn't we say yes?"

Well, it wasn't last night, it was yesterday afternoon

But Jasmine came secretly, so it probably has nothing to do with him, right?

Hearing Fisher's answer, Rafael's expression finally softened a little, but it was still not at the level of "warmth".

She stood up with her hands folded and walked over to Fisher.

Fisher thought he had passed the test, and was about to reach out to hug him, but was stopped by Rafael.

"You stand first, don't move!"

"Huh?"

Fisher remained motionless, watching her draw closer to him, sniffing his clothes like a kitten.

"Sniff."

She frowned, searched back and forth several times, and then raised her eyebrows and raised her head, and her vigilant expression turned into suspicion a little.

Thanks to the inspiration given by the Mother Goddess, even if he didn't see anyone when he returned, Fisher was very careful to dispel the smell on his body, so Rafael didn't notice anything.

Fisher looked at her innocently, Rafael's expression softened a little, she looked Fisher up and down, and asked,

"Where did you go last night, why did you change your clothes and not wear the one I gave you."

I thought you had something to do, so I left the Dragon Court for a while and went north to study the things about those demons yesterday. There was a little change in the middle, which caused the clothes on my body to be destroyed, and when I came back, I took one at random in the Dragon Court and couldn't come back naked. ”

Fisher glanced at the clothes on his body, and asked Rafael in passing,

"When did you come back? If you suspect that I went to Jasmine, you can go to her and ask her yourself, right? ”

“.”

Rafael's expression froze slightly, and her eyes dodged.

To tell the truth, she hadn't gone to see Jasmine in person since what had happened, even yesterday when she came back in the middle of the night to find that Fisher wasn't in the room, and she didn't ask if she suspected going to Jasmine's room for the night.

She may not want to confront and quarrel with Jasmine, and she doesn't want to ruin the hard-won relationship between them, but she also doesn't want to give up her lover so easily.

Therefore, at this moment, such a way of not meeting and not communicating in person is appropriate.

Cold war.

That's how it should be described.

Fisher saw the hidden meaning of her reaction, and he wanted to say something to ease their relationship, but before he could speak, Rafael recovered from the evasive emotion.

She turned her head to look at Fisher, reached out and tugged at his robe, and sure enough, there was not a single strand under it.

She's not shy, she's done it so many times, and she knows each other's shapes very well, so she's certainly not as shy as Renee.

Like an old husband and wife, she glanced out the door, and then said to Fisher,

"Really, what the hell happened to you last night, why did you lose all your other clothes?"

"I broke it myself, you know, for me, the material of the clothes is a little bit. Frail. ”

"Well, I'm just wondering where to get you clothes, especially underwear of your size."

“.”

Fisher was innocently silenced, while Rafael seemed to think of something, and said,

"Yes, I'll bring it to you later, and I have to find you a formal dress that fits well, it's not okay to dress like this"

As soon as she finished speaking, she was about to get ready to move and go out. Fisher, who was behind her, grabbed her arm and asked,

"Wait, formal clothes? Is there anything I need to do today? ”

Rafael turned her head, the expression on her face flushed a little, she pursed her lips and said,

"You forgot, I'm going to take you to the Ten Thousand Flowers Garden. There's a lot to do afterwards, and this morning is the right time to start before we get started. ”

"Wanhuating?"

Fisher was stunned for a second, then quickly remembered the concept that Rafael had mentioned only yesterday.

He suddenly knew where they were going next.

As previously explained by Koshir and Farsher and Fisher, the Court of Ten Thousand Flowers is actually a very important place for the dragons.

The concept originated in the ancient dragon court, when male dragons courted in search of a flower that their intuition suggested. Except for beauty, the rest of the traits are specified by the courting dragon race.

After the successful completion of the marriage, this symbolic courtship flower will also appear in their marriage ceremony, accompanied by fine wine, singing and dancing, symbolizing the union of life and the recognition of the soul.

Generally speaking, the wedding of the dragon race also requires the awareness of witnessing the marriage, and this witness is generally the elders of both parties and the person who is highly respected by the dragon court.

Therefore, of course, the women of the royal family in the Dragon Court will also undertake a relatively large number of marriage ceremonies, which is a mutual honor. For those who are married, the glory of the dragon court will bless their souls and marriages; For the royal family witnessing the marriage, this represents the continuation and future of the race

Over time, because the courtship ceremony was held again and again, more and more flowers fell on the wedding venue, and the "Garden of Ten Thousand Flowers" was also named, which was given a special meaning and has been used to this day.

In addition to weddings, Mankating has also been entrusted with other responsibilities related to this over the years.

The names of offspring, the records of the clans, the regulation of ceremonies, the records of history, and the education of young people

All these extremely important responsibilities for the dragon race come from here, and it is only natural that the selection of the dragons responsible for managing this very important place is also very rigorous.

Because it is closely related to the concept of reproduction, the person in charge is usually a woman, who may be the companion, sister, and elder of the leader of the Dragon Court

At this moment, the person in charge of the management of the Red Dragon Court Wanhua Court is none other than the Dragon Queen's biological mother, Yariel.

The location of the Ten Thousand Flower Court is at the edge of the Dragon Court, in an extremely quiet dense forest.

From afar, a very quaint, pale oval building appeared in Fisher's eyes in the early morning sun.

He and Rafael were the only ones who came here, and no one else was with them.

He changed into a formal suit, but it was a style from the Western Continent, and I don't know where she seized it from.

Rafael made him wear his own Western Continent Nari's costumes, not Long Ting's or Southern Continent's, and she never wanted to disguise them in these aspects.

Unlike the Prayer Tower, it is equipped with relatively strict guards, all of whom are trained dragonmen.

"Here we are, Fisher."

Rafael, who was leading the way, also saw the building in the distance, and she finally stopped a little and looked back at Fisher,

"My mother, it's inside." (End of chapter)
