That night, shortly after dinner, the palace herald came to the door.

As Situ Yi said, the king asked to summon him.

Zheng Qian didn't say much word, agreed to come down, and followed the herald into the palace.

Above the main hall.

The magic lamp emits a gentle yellow light, and it only takes a few to illuminate this golden hall.

The familiar ruby avenue, the familiar golden pillar of the coiling dragon, the familiar glass dome, and the familiar Tianma pattern on it.

On the right side of the main hall, there is a piece of wall with a slight color difference.

It was the wall that was hit by Janis who was beaten by Zheng Qian last time, and it has been repaired very well.

Just like when I first came that day.

It's still those guys.

Jin Ge, Zhao Aotian, and Situ Zhou on the throne.

There is no one else, so that the whole hall has an inexplicable depression at night.

Walking to the throne, Zheng Qian knelt on one knee and saluted.

Zhao Aotian smiled at him, counting it as a greeting, as if he was saying something in his eyes: [Long time no see, Brother Zheng Qian. 】

"Bronze-level adventurer Zheng Qian, see Your Majesty."

… A day ago...

Situ Zhou has had more gray hair recently.

People say that the emperor is bitter, the emperor is tired, and how difficult it is to be a king.

All Nima fart.

How hard are you to be a farmer working in the field?

No matter how tired you are, can there be an adventurer who is born and dies?

It is not easy to have workers who are struggling on the front line and facing a thousand strange technical problems every day?

With this belief, Situ Zhou has dedicated his life to this country.

Even from the day he wore this crown, Situ Zhou has never experienced the feeling of sleeping well for 32 consecutive years.

However, Situ Zhou couldn't figure it out.

Why do I run this country conscientiously, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and everyone has food, but this God wants to destroy my eastern Sichuan?

Eagle Valley covets our wealth and strength, and has always wanted to include Chuandong in the bag.

The surrounding small countries are like clowns jumping off beams, and once the eastern part of Sichuan falls into a crisis, they either pretend to be blind and do not lend a hand, or they simply cut off contacts.

If that's all there is, Situ Zhou can still handle it.

However, when more than a month ago, shortly after the demon dragon left, Situ Zhou read the report.

At that second, Situ Zhou's mentality really collapsed.

The sky has no eyes.

Why do I have to die in eastern Sichuan?!

Predict an attack on the scale of 100 million Warcraft.

Since the primeval period of human existence, there has never been an invasion of this scale.

No, not even one percent of it.

During this time, Situ Zhou had trouble sleeping.

As long as I can keep Chuandong, I can do anything.

But how can you stop a whole 100 million demonic beasts?!

In this battle, it was claimed that there was a chance of victory, but Situ Zhou understood that there was no chance of victory at all.

Unstoppable.

Even if it can be blocked, the armed manpower and financial resources of eastern Sichuan will be exhausted, and any small country will be able to easily take eastern Sichuan at that time.

Could it be that Chuandong is really exhausted?

No!

After a whole month of contemplation, Situ Zhou finally thought of one, and the only possible chance.

Yes, just maybe.

But it's also the only chance.

Magic Dragon!

At the beginning, Situ Zhou faced the demon dragon with great power, and it was that time that made him deeply understand what is inhuman power?

That's not at all an opponent that humans can handle.

Even if the whole country is devoted to organizing a confrontation, I'm afraid it won't be able to win it, right?

But the dragon didn't do anything.

On the contrary, he also helped Chuandong solve the big trouble of Janis.

Come to think of it, why did it let Ginger bring himself and his spouse to the palace?

In the eyes of this creature, humans are probably no different from grasshoppers on the side of the road, right?

Why did this demon dragon go to such great lengths to kidnap our archmage and come to our eastern Sichuan palace to make a name for himself?

Situ Zhou didn't know.

Maybe it's really just to live incognito and live a peaceful life without killing, as it says?

After all, it has a spiritual intelligence comparable to that of a human, and it is only natural to have this wish.

Wisdom means that there is room for negotiation.

As long as we find the magic dragon and persuade it to help us in Chuandong, then Chuandong has hope of winning this battle!

How sad and desperate must a human king be to be reduced to pinning his hopes on a monster?

Of course, Situ Zhou knew this.

But, this is also the only way.

Perhaps, this will make the eastern part of Sichuan unrecoverable, but it is better than letting the people become monster rations.

If the heavens want me to die in Chuandong, then I can only dance with the devil in Chuandong!

"I disagree!"

When Situ Zhou called Jin Ge and Zhao Aotian to tell him about the plan, Zhao Aotian was the first to clap the table against it.

He whispered in an almost distorted voice: "King, please think twice, it is the Demon Beast that attacked us, and the Demon Dragon is also the Demon Beast.

If we seek the help of that demon dragon, and not say whether it will help or not, but if it does, wouldn't that mean that we are luring the wolf into the house?! ”

Jin Ge looked sideways and said, "But it's already in the room?" Xiao Zhao, why do you hate it so much? ”

Zhao Aotian's teeth rattled: "He killed three thousand of us!" Isn't that enough to prove its ferocity? ”

"But you did it."

Situ Zhou's faint words made Zhao Aotian's whole person choked there.

He wanted to say something, but the words reached his throat, but he couldn't say anything.

Clenched his fists, the soft armor in the palms of his cage hands was pinched through.

Zhao Aotian squeezed out the words from between his teeth and said, "Even if it is my responsibility, I have the obligation to avenge those young people who trust me.

I can't believe that dragon anyway! Definitely won't forgive it either!

That's 3,000 lives, 3,000 families, and that's it. ”

When Situ Zhou and Jin Ge heard this, they both sighed.

Zhao Aotian's persistence, the two of them are not incomprehensible.

"No matter what, you can't deny that those 3,000 people must be put aside now compared to the survival of the country."

Situ Zhou patted him on the shoulder, and continued bitterly: "Other countries can't wait to see our eastern Sichuan perish, so that they can get a piece of the pie in our land."

No one will come to help us in eastern Sichuan, this battle, whether it is won or defeated, eastern Sichuan will perish.

The only hope is the dragon!

Xiao Zhao, the overall situation is important. ”

The big picture counts.

How heavy is the weight of these four words at this moment?

Zhao Aotian's tooth root was eager to bite off.

Looking at Jin Ge and Situ Zhou.

After taking a few deep breaths, he finally calmed down.

"It's okay, I'll put aside the grievances with it for the time being, everything, I'll mention it when I save Chuandong, if I can't save it, I can't talk about revenge or not."

As soon as Zhao Aotian's words came out, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially Situ Zhou.

This bold plan, in fact, the biggest obstacle is Zhao Aotian.

As long as he agrees, everything is easy to say.

"In that case, there's only one question left."

Situ Zhou slapped the table and said, "How can I find that demon dragon?" It's a powerful beast beyond our knowledge, it wants to hide, and it's hard for us to find it. ”

As he spoke, Situ Zhou set his eyes on Jin Ge: "Mentor Jin Ge, you are the most respected mage in our eastern Sichuan, and you brought it to the palace at the beginning.

And you've lived with it in the dungeon for a while.

Do you have a way to find this dragon? ”

How can there be no way, Zheng Qian is it! In fact, Lord Power Bank has been silently guarding us like Ultraman.

Ginger was secretly amused in his heart, but he didn't reveal it on the surface.

He pretended to be thoughtful, and after a long while, he said: "The demon dragon is actually very lazy by nature, and most of them are reluctant to go out of the mountain, but Your Majesty wants to talk to him, and the old man has a good candidate, and he may be able to find it." ”

"Who is it?" Zhao Aotian and Situ Zhou asked in unison.

Jin Ge Zhengse said: "Zheng Qian." ”

Both of them gasped.

Especially Zhao Aotian, his face was puzzled: "He? Why? ”

Jin Ge said: "Zheng Qian originally lived in a small village near the underground city of eastern Sichuan, and was a lv25, little-known casual cultivator.

When the old man and the demon dragon fought out of the dungeon, they happened to meet him, and the demon dragon had just gone through a battle with the boss, and he was very hungry, so he gave the two minotaurs he had just hunted to the demon dragon.

The demon dragon was very satisfied, not only using its special magic to strengthen Zheng Gan's body, but also making Zheng Qian's magic essence increase significantly.

He who has a part of the magic essence of the demon dragon should have a way to find the demon dragon. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Aotian's eyes widened in disbelief, and he suddenly realized: "At the beginning, I was puzzled, where did such a strong young man appear in eastern Sichuan, so it turned out, no wonder he was so powerful?!"

If it was the demon dragon who strengthened him, everything would be explained. ”

When Situ Zhou heard this, he slapped the table and said, "Go and invite Zheng Qian, tomorrow night, this king will meet him." ”
