Chapter 8: The Bed Is Sturdy
"I'm pretty sure the dragon Fafnir is dead, and nothing else."
As the saying goes, one stone stirs up a thousand waves.
Lin Xiao's words caused a huge commotion in the entire team.
From planning to flee with the princess to implementing the plan, Duke Carolan doesn't know how much he suffered, how much he was afraid of, and how much he bore heart.
Now suddenly someone told him that the source of all fear and suffering was dead.
How could Carolan accept it for a while?
But looking at Lin Xiao's appearance, it doesn't look like he's talking nonsense?
"Lord Duke, you must not believe this man's words!"
It was the blonde youth Katgar who spoke.
Lin Xiao's contempt for him greatly stimulated the arrogant and conceited young knight.
Cartgal, who has been pampered since childhood, is like being held by the stars wherever he goes.
In addition to the honorable status of the duke's eldest son, he has already reached level 23 at a young age, and was once known as the most promising young talent in the Valrhona Kingdom to step into the hero rank.
It was impossible for Katgar, who had a promising future, to defect with Carolan.
However, he was deeply fascinated by the beauty of the princess.
Defend the princess, marry the princess, and take the princess for yourself.
That's Katgarh's greatest wish.
And Lin Xiao's appearance completely broke his self-esteem and illusions.
He couldn't understand why Count Carolan would be willing to marry the princess to someone he had never met.
Strong jealousy made him full of hatred for Lin Xiao.
"Dragons have an almost endless lifespan, and Fafnir is an existence that even the gods fear, how can he die?"
Katgar walked up to Lin Xiao, pointed to his nose and said, "If you are afraid of being an enemy of the dragon, you can just run away, why do you make up such a lie to get away with it?" ”
Lin Xiao said coldly when he heard this: "Listen to what you mean, do you want to drive me away?" ”
A silent coercion erupted from him, sending Katgar shudder.
"Yes...... So what? ”
The duke's son, whose face was swollen and flushed, straightened his back, forcing himself to look less afraid.
Lin Xiao looked at Katgar and felt a little bored.
People don't get angry with ants that stand in their way.
Originally, he wanted to learn more about the battle between humans and demons through this group of people.
But now it seems that the two sides are no longer able to communicate.
In that case, what more is there to say?
"Okay, I'll go."
Lin Xiao's words made everyone present dumbfounded.
Why doesn't this person play cards according to the routine at all?
Shouldn't this situation end in a duel between the two?
Even Duke Carolan was ready to offend Lin Xiao even if he sacrificed Catgal.
Who knew that people didn't care about patting their butts and leaving.
He stayed in place for a while, and it wasn't until Lin Xiao was far away that the duke came back to his senses.
He glanced at Katgar, sighed, and said, "You provoked that hero to leave on the spur of the moment, and if we all die on the way to the Empire, you will be fully responsible." ”
Seeing that Katgar bowed his head and was silent, Carolan sighed again, took out a communication magic scroll and said to a knight beside him: "You quickly go to the nearest city to see if Fafna's guardian dragon pattern is still there, and then send us a message." ”
Although Lin Xiao's words were outrageous, Carolan also had a vague premonition in her heart.
If Fafnir is really dead, it will really be the most explosive news in the past ten years.
If the dragon kingdom is without dragons, what will happen in the future?
Lin Xiaocai didn't care about the future of Valrhona's kingdom, and at this moment he was enjoying the goddess's performance with great interest.
After confirming that no one was using magic to spy on him, he lifted the "high-level illusion mask", and the two of them returned to their original appearances.
The goddess looked like she wanted to speak and stopped, in Lin Xiao's opinion, it was too much.
"You...... If you get married, I won't bless you. ”
"Oh."
Lin Xiao's answer obviously couldn't satisfy the goddess.
Why did this stinky guy react like this?
"Is the princess beautiful?"
Sifner asked, a little apprehensive.
"Beautiful."
Lin Xiao, who usually cherishes words like gold, actually said an idiom to describe the beauty of the princess, which made the goddess a little uneasy.
Lin Xiao has never praised himself for being beautiful!
"Then why did you come back? Is it bad to marry a princess as a colt? ”
The goddess didn't even notice that she was a little out of shape.
"It's not about you."
Lin Xiao pushed away the goddess who pounced on her and said, "You, stay away from me first before talking." ”
Seeing that Sifna's eyes were slightly red, Lin Xiao asked, "Jealous?" ”
"It's not about you!"
Appreciating the embarrassment of the goddess, Lin Xiao unconsciously showed a hint of an imperceptible smile.
How long has it been since he became a killer that he hasn't laughed?
Lin Xiao couldn't remember it himself.
He just thinks he's so lucky.
When he saw the life history of the goddess Sifna through the identification magic, he deeply felt that he was the luckiest person in the world.
Because the life history of the goddess clearly records that her soul came from the same world as Lin Xiao before being erased from her memory and becoming a goddess.
And her name before her reincarnation was Lin Yuqing.
The two quarreled all the way, and soon arrived at a small town called Kalent.
There is only one inn in the town, located next to the market in the centre of the town.
Along the way, Lin Xiao found that the civilization level of the Alpha Continent was basically still at the medieval level.
It's just that the popularity of magic still brings a lot of convenience to ordinary people.
Opening the magically blessed automatic door, the two walked to the front desk of the inn.
"What is your relationship, two guests?"
Faced with the innkeeper's inquiry, Lin Xiao replied without hesitation: "She, slave." ”
"Oh, got it......"
The boss smiled meaningfully, then pulled out a key.
"Don't worry, the bed is firm."
"No, we're staying at the hotel, what do you mean when you tell me the bed is firm?"
Siffner was not calm in an instant.
The boss smiled: "It means that our room is well equipped." ”
Lin Xiao said to the goddess: "I sleep on the bed, you sleep on the floor." ”
Hearing Lin Xiao say this, the boss couldn't help but nod frequently.
"I like to play with the place, and you are very good at playing with guests."
“……”
So the two went into the same room.
Eat, bathe, sleep.
Lying on the floor, Sifna looked at the snow-white ceiling and couldn't sleep.
"He actually let me sleep on the floor?"
"How long am I going to follow this stinky guy?"
"Why didn't he peek when I was in the shower?"
"Why do I care so much about a mortal?"
Just as Sifner was thinking, the whole room suddenly glowed with a blinding light.
"Sure enough, it came."
With the slight movement of Lin Xiao's fingers, the eighteenth-rank control magic "Heavenly Soul Lock Fury", which had been arranged in the room a long time ago, was activated.
Countless golden chains appeared out of thin air, binding a white man as firmly as a rice dumpling.
"Who are you?! Dare to make a move against this god! ”
"Divine Messenger? So weak? Are you a bait? ”
As soon as the identification spell was shot, Lin Xiao frowned and looked at the information on the panel of the divine envoy.
"Name, Garrell, Grade, Level 98."
"It's impossible to crack my anti-reconnaissance magic with your level, how many more people are here? Why can't my recon magic scan your associates? ”
Seeing that Lin Xiao was about to find a large stack of pre-stored magic scrolls, Sifna hurriedly grabbed his hand.
"Wait, I know him......"
Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then cast a few more defensive spells before finally letting go of the divine envoy Garrel, who was about to be strangled by the "Wrath of the Heavenly Soul Lock".
