Chapter Eighty-Two: The Speech of Dill City
After a full meal and wine, Yu Yan and Swain rested in Landen City for one night, and early the next morning, the red dragon took Swin to say goodbye to Bu Zongyao and the others and simply flew away from Landen City.
Under Swain's guidance, he saw the outline of the second city on the tour, the city of Deere.
On the way, Swain had already used the teleportation crystal to contact the lord of Dill City, informing him that he would tell his men that a red dragon would arrive with the future king to prevent unnecessary misunderstandings.
Ember flew to the distance where he could see his silhouette and stopped, the expulsion of a city from Caesar's Empire was a scar on the Red Dragon's heart, and it didn't want the past to happen again.
"Lord Ember, there's a blue flag there, which means you can enter the city. Sven, who was on the dragon's back, said with one hand on the dragon's neck and the other pointing to a tower.
Ember followed his direction, and sure enough, there was a soldier standing at the top of the tower, waving a large blue banner vigorously.
So the red dragon flew over with confidence, only to see that the cannons and heavy crossbows and other powerful weapons on the city wall were lying quietly on it, with no sign of activation.
The soldiers on the city wall were not so calm, looking at the rapidly approaching dragon, some of them were pale and showed frightened expressions, while many more had expectant expressions on their faces.
Because of the relationship between the guardian dragons, the Kot army has always preached that the dragon is a representative of power rather than evil, so when they learned that the dragon was not here to slaughter the city, most of the soldiers were still looking forward to what the dragon was like, and it was really very popular.
But before they could take a few more looks, the red dragon swept over their heads, and the sudden wind blew the top hats of several officers into oblivion.
"That gray castle should be the city lord's mansion. Swain said again.
The red dragon, who was observing the different expressions of the humans below, raised his eyes to look at the location of the City Lord's Mansion, and then flapped his wings and flew over there.
After a short while, he arrived at the top of the City Lord's Mansion, and Ember found a suitable piece of grass and fell.
Although the red dragon was already very careful, he still accidentally knocked down three trees and a dozen pots of flowers. The city lord who rushed to hear the sound was very distressed for a while, and felt that a lot of gold coins with long wings flew away in front of him.
"Arrange lunch, and in two hours I will start speaking. Sven, who jumped off the dragon's back, said to the city lord with a complicated face.
"Yes, yes......." The lord hurriedly agreed, and then cautiously asked, "What about this Mr........ Dragon?"
"Arrange for someone to bring some meat. Sven turned his head to look at the red dragon and said with a smile, "Lord Ember, Dir City produces a kind of Gaoling sheep, it tastes very good, how about a few of them?"
The red dragon nodded slowly, then looked away. Seeing this, the city lord didn't say anything more, and led Swain out of here.
"Why don't you speak?" Xiao Lan asked curiously.
Ember closed his eyes, then replied in a low voice in dragon language, "I suddenly feel more majestic not speaking, yesterday I didn't have to open my mouth to face so many humans, and just a few glances calmed them all." So I decided that in the future, when I encounter similar situations, as long as I can solve the problem with yelling, I will not speak the lingua franca. ”
“......”
......
So, two hours later, when Swain gave a speech on the high platform in the city square, Ember drove down the other miscellaneous guards, took most of the high platform, and lay down.
Swain began his speech standing between the two front legs of the red dragon, and the audience below was no less than yesterday's in Landen.
Because there was no mage to guard him this time, Sven consumed an expensive shield scroll that could withstand all attacks from front of him until he ran out of energy.
Halfway through the speech, most of the ordinary people were brainwashed by Swain's impassioned speech, when suddenly a sound broke through the air in the crowd, and a huge black arrow shot at Swain, who was raising his hand high!
But it was not bad, the black arrow was unexpectedly blocked by the shield, stopped a few meters from Sven's head, and then fell to the ground.
The sound of Swain's speech stopped abruptly, and the next moment the crowd below was boiling!
Touching the left side of his face with some fear, Sven immediately clenched the amplification crystal and shouted, "Don't panic, everyone, the assassin is likely to escape!"
The boiling crowd eased somewhat, and then when the red dragon stood up, the crowd immediately fell silent. Then Swain added, "Everyone squat down and let the guards catch the assassin." ”
Anyone who enters the square is subject to inspection by the city guards and is not allowed to carry any weapons. But as long as you have storage items, you can easily fool around.
"Investigate the position one hundred and fifty meters in that direction, and find out the guy with the storage props for me!" Swain said condescendingly to the guards in the audience.
Several teams of guards immediately led the way out, and the squatting crowd, which was not too dense, immediately moved the way for them. Swin and Ember on the stage were also looking in that direction, looking for suspicious figures.
The guards gradually narrowed the area, and the assassin in the crowd saw that he was likely to be exposed, and gradually retreated, but was soon noticed by Sven: "Catch the one with the white hood!"
Seeing that he had been defeated, the Assassin suddenly stood up, drew his dagger and kicked down several civilians next to him, and shouted, "Don't come here!
It was a very effective threat, and the dozen or so guards who rushed over were frightened, and then turned back to look at Swain as if asking for help.
Swain was also in a hurry, and he couldn't tell the Assassin to be caught regardless of casualties. In that case, the first chapter of my half-day speech on the theme of protecting civilians would be in vain.
So he also turned his head and looked at the red dragon behind him with a pleading look.
At this time, Ember had already fallen down again, and seeing that Sven had asked for him, the red dragon tilted his head, raised a claw and scratched his ear, but still did not speak.
Seeing that the red dragon didn't want to help, Sven turned his head and watched as the assassin was about to flee.
Obviously, the Assassin cherished his life, and retreated all the way without harming any civilians, seeing that he was about to reach the edge of the square, and he could fly away after walking a dozen more steps.
At this point, the Assassin quickened his pace, as if he felt a sense of excitement for the rest of his life.
But the next second he suddenly fell, others couldn't see it clearly, but Swain could see it clearly, and the assassin's body shrank quickly after he fell, just like Deeds that day.
The assassin's death caused a small wave, but it was quickly smoothed out by the arriving guards, and within a few minutes order was restored, and Swain's speech began to continue as if nothing happened.
And the initiator, Xiaolan, crawled back to Ember with deep merit and fame, and then bit the red dragon's ear and said, "Hey, if you continue like this, you will have to run out of venom after two more times." ”
