Chapter 35 Dominos and Tinder
Hughes looked at Caesar with a strange look on his face and said, "Where can I go? I've been in this ancient steppe, but I haven't met you." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Caesar stared earnestly into Hughes's eyes, and Hughes also stared at Caesar very calmly.
After a while, Caesar said softly, "I have two questions, I have asked you before." ”
"I remember. Hughes immediately replied, "You asked me why I wanted to come to Dragon Road, and what I had to do with that kind of dragon monster. ”
On the carriage back from the Arcana to the imperial capital, Caesar asked Hughes these two questions, but Hughes did not give an answer.
"But for now, I can answer you. Hughes suddenly smiled and said.
Caesar was stunned, Hughes has always been silent, Caesar was going to be tempted, but he didn't expect the other party to agree so easily.
"But I have one condition. Hughes continued.
"Sure enough, I knew. Caesar couldn't help but be a little annoyed, looking at the perfect smile on Hughes's handsome face, and felt the urge to punch him.
Suppressing his anger, Caesar said in a calm voice, "What conditions?"
"It's simple. Hughes restrained his smile slightly, and his tone became more serious, "That dragon-like monster, you killed it, I know that bringing that thing back to the military department should be a very important research object, but if you can, how about destroying it? Just like we burned the dragon and threw it into the abyss of death." ”
This was a condition that Caesar did not expect.
Caesar barely hesitated in this regard, then shook his head and categorically refused: "Impossible!"
Just kidding, that thing can see the presence of the little dragon, and Caesar is actually very, very concerned about it, if he is not forced to do so, he will not kill the monster easily. Will be captured alive as much as possible.
How could such an important research object, which might be able to solve many mysteries in itself, be destroyed like this?
"And why did you destroy the monster's body?" asked Caesar.
Hughes looked at Caesar with a deep meaning and said, "Because if you die one day, the monster may also want to destroy your body completely." ”
Caesar's eyelids jumped violently and fell silent.
Actually, there are some things. Caesar never made it clear that he thought the dragon-like monsters were targeting Hughes, and that the monsters were unusually damaging Hughes. It looked as if the dragon-like monster was Hughes's natural enemy.
No one wants their natural enemies and weaknesses to be known, and Caesar is curious about Hughes's mysteries, and even more jealous, so he never finds out.
And what did Hughes mean by what he said just now? Could it be that he also sensed his restraint against that kind of dragon monster?
Caesar suddenly thought that Hughes had reacted very indifferently when he knew that that kind of dragon monster had been killed by himself. It was not surprising that Caesar's strength could kill such a powerful monster.
"So...... You, me, and the monster...... ...... between us," Caesar pondered his words, hesitating to really ask.
If the monster restrains Hughes and restricts the monster himself, could it be that there is some special connection between himself and Hughes and the monster?
But in the end Caesar shook his head and said, "Nothing. ”
Hughes smiled and said, "Is there anything else, if there is nothing else, I want to take a break, and I will enter the third layer of the Dragon Road in a while, and I have to adjust my state to the best." ”
Caesar asked rhetorically, "So." If we don't destroy that monster's body, we won't have anything to talk about?"
"Yes. No need to talk about it. ”
"Why the hell did you destroy that monster's body? Is it that hard to explain?"
"I didn't say I had to destroy it. Hughes shrugged, indifferent, "Just a suggestion." Think of it as a kind of destruction for the sake of safety. I really...... I hate that thing so much. ”
......
......
When Caesar and the others were ready to enter the third layer of the Dragon Dao that no one had entered in a hundred years, all parties in the outside world were actually actively moving.
The high-level leaders of the Imperial Military Department, the Forest Clan, and Earth Street are almost sleepless, always keeping an eye on the latest developments. and movements in the north.
However, compared with the positive attitude of the south, after the opening of the dragon road this time, the north seems to not care about this matter, which is completely opposite to the attitude of action against Caesar at any cost before the opening.
It is a huge city in the north built on a hill.
The fortress-like buildings of war stand on top of the mountain, forming a three-dimensional defensive network. If the imperial capital of the Wind and Thunder Empire is only a little more military, then this city is completely a military fortress! The simple lines inherited from Sendroo's simple but heavy and solemn architectural style, lined by the majestic mountain, make the whole city look like a sacred mountain where the gods live, and the weather is myriad.
The city has a resounding name: Black Chant.
The capital of the Battle Dynasty.
On the top of the towering mountain, a pure black fortress crept silently like a wild beast, and at this time, in a secret room in the fortress, a white-robed man sat cross-legged.
The man looked to be in his early thirties, with waist-length and straight black and shiny hair, a simple face, and thick shoulders. He also had no ornaments on him, and his loose white robe was spotless, not even fringed. This is a man who is simple and simple to the extreme, just like this secret room he is in without any furnishings.
The man sat cross-legged, looking at the thirteen dominoes lined up on the floor in front of him.
Each domino has vague handwriting on it, as if there is life, and it is quite strange to carry and float inside the translucent dominoes. The handwriting is the oldest Sunderlow language, not all of this world.
At one point, the handwriting on one of the dominoes suddenly flickered sharply a few times, and then slowly dimmed.
There was a click, a slight cracking sound that seemed a little harsh in the secret room.
The white-robed man stared at the name on the domino that was gradually losing its luster, Canglan, his eyelids drooped slightly, and then sighed deeply: "Another one has been extinguished." ”
His gaze swept over the other dominoes, thirteen dominoes so far, and the remaining one was actually glowing.
"Only the last one remains. A hint of strangeness appeared on the white-robed man's face, and he muttered to himself, "The team sent by the south this time is really that strong?" And I didn't expect that the black and white kid died, but how did he die? His mission was to target Caesar, and even if Caesar had a combat power that did not match the rank, it was impossible to kill the black and white ......."
"But, well, if you're dead, you'll be dead. ”
The white-robed man's expression quickly returned to calm, "As long as this mission can be successful, let alone one black and white, even if ten black and white are lost, it is worth it." ”
"Besides, the people sent into the Dragon Road this time, even if they are not killed, will eventually die......"
"Now it's up to the last spark left. ”
The man's gaze fell on the only remaining domino that was not broken, "Even if there is only one flame left, as long as you can enter the third layer of the Dragon Dao, it will be enough." ”
"Those southern wind and thunder mages probably don't know, the third layer of the Dragon Dao has nothing to do with them at all. ”
"It doesn't take much, as long as one of our people enters the third layer, this Dragon Dao mission will be over. ”
"Of course the things in the third layer belong to us. ”
"And those super elites who were influenced by our pre-emptive attitude and were specially sent into the Dragon Road by the South, what are the heirs of Blue Phoenix, Caesar, Nono, Long Qiqi, and Earth Street...... They will all perish with the dragon road. (To be continued.) )
