Dragoon Sentinel

Chapter 71 - The Fuse of War

On the day of the celebration, Augustine's cheerful atmosphere was about to reach its climax.

The first ray of sunlight in the morning shines through the luxuriant branches and leaves of the sacred tree, and the square in front of the sacred tree has already begun a celebration ceremony in full swing.Beside the circular white wishing pool, the priests of the God of the Forest and the Goddess of Sunlight began to sing in honor of the gods.

The dancers wearing forest deer masks lined up and danced the praying dance facing the holy tree. The believers got up early and gathered here, and pushed the praying ceremony to a climax in response to the priest's singing.

Ferth struggled to wake up amidst the sometimes high-pitched and sometimes gentle tunes. He touched the bed beside him, but he couldn't find Norley.He woke up suddenly, got up and opened the door curtain.

"Firth, you're awake." The morning sun cast a gentle aura on Nuo Lei's body, "Come and see, it's a celebration ceremony."

Ferth had little interest in the celebration, but he had no resistance to Nuo Lei's call. He stood behind Nuo Lei and wrapped his arms around his waist, resting his chin on his shoulder and looking down.In the square, the celebration ceremony surrounding the fountain was still in full swing. Ferth took Nuo Lei's hand and pointed at the performing priests, introducing him to Nuo Lei.

"The ones on the left are the priests of the satyr, who represent masculine men, and sing a low, short tune. The ones on the right are the priests of the goddess of light, who represent feminine women, and sing a high, long tune. Forest spirit deer represent the holy tree, they are the most veiled creatures of the holy tree, so that annoying holy master...has such a spiritual system."

"You know a lot." Nuo Lei rubbed Ferth's hair with his backhand, "Have you been to Augustine before?"

"No, I stayed in the habitat of the dragon clan before I was kidnapped to the Mage Academy. At that time, there would be many visitors from other races, bringing knowledge of my own race in exchange for the trust and help of the dragon clan. These... I came from an elf From what he saw in the memory ball he brought, it looks like he's nostalgic for his hometown."

During the conversation, the morning ceremony soon came to an end, the priests began to chant the last paragraph, and the silver light, which was completely different from the golden sunlight, shrouded it, falling on the water surface and sparkling, and the masked dancers circled the pool Standing still, he took out a dustpan-like container and displayed a pool of water sprinkled with light.

"What's this doing?" Norley asked, pointing to the sink.

"That's the holy water for the celebration. Legend has it that it can drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters. The water will be distributed to the elves present to bless them with good weather for the next year." Fierth said, "After the holy water is distributed, the ceremony in the morning can be regarded as a formal ceremony. When it’s over, the next thing is sex, and the Holy Master will also participate.”

"Well, it sounds interesting."

"It's not interesting at all, the scene was extremely chaotic." Ferth hurriedly dismissed Nuo Lei's idea of ​​participating, and added embellishment, "You don't know, these elves wait for this day every year to see the Holy Lord. Zhenrong, as soon as his car appears, all the elves will swarm up and want to touch this divinely favored person, so don't join in the fun, it would be bad if you were pushed and hurt."

"But this time, didn't the Holy Lord take the initiative to invite us to participate? Have you forgotten our plan?"

"I haven't forgotten..." Ferth gritted her teeth, rubbed her head against Nuo Lei's shoulder, and said sullenly, "Just wait, I will take good care of you, so you can enjoy the celebration to the fullest."

"Thank you!" Nuo Lei happily kissed Ferth's side face. Seeing his partner's smiling face, Ferth involuntarily held his chin, deepening the kiss.

"Ahem..." An untimely cough sounded not far from the two of them. Ferth let go of Nuo Lei with a black face, and looked back to see the knight standing upright in front of him.

"Bettisno." Norley said, "What's the matter?"

"I'm sorry to disturb your intimacy," Betisno said without looking sideways, "Your Excellency the Holy Lord invited us over."

"Are you leaving already?"

"Your Excellency the Duke and Young Master Eugene have passed away. The Duke and the Lord still have something to discuss. As for Young Master Eugene..."

"Are you going to see his elder brother?"

Betisno nodded, and looked at Ferth asking for advice: "His Excellency the Duke asked me to take the two of them to join them. Can we set off now?"

"Okay... let's go." Ferth still had a bad complexion, and for the first time, he didn't let out a cold snort of impatience. He still valued Nuo Lei, but he no longer hated those who were close to his partner indiscriminately, as in the past. For a dragon with a strong desire, this is a good change.

Betisno silently took this change into his eyes, turned around and walked ahead.After coming down from the tree house, the three of them saw the elf guards waiting on the ground.In order to cater to the atmosphere of the celebration, the guards put white star flowers on their armors, and the faint fragrance lingered on their noses.

"Your Excellency Nuo Lei, the Holy Master has been waiting for you for a long time." The elf guard said enthusiastically, "Please follow me."

Facing the obvious differential treatment, Ferth clenched his fists hidden in his sleeves, Nuo Lei looked at him knowingly, took his hand before saying: "I will trouble you to lead the way again. "

The elf guard's expression remained unchanged, and he sent them up to the teleportation platform in a courteous manner. The gate of the Emerald Palace opened in response. West wandered around inside boredly. When he saw them, he immediately ran over excitedly. This picture seems familiar.

"Norey, let me tell you, my brother is conscious!" West stammered happily, "I waved to him through the protective film, and he responded to me!"

"Great, did the Holy Master say when your elder brother will recover?"

"That's not true. After I came, Inuo and the Holy Master entered the meeting hall. I haven't had time to tell them about it yet."

"The chamber? Haven't you come out yet?"

"Here we come." As the carved door on the right side of the throne was pushed open, the four of them saw the figure of Duke Wenger. Inno changed into a light golden robe, and he also wore a star flower on his chest as the Romans did.He rubbed West's blond hair and said with a smile, "I heard your voice from afar, is Diese okay?"

"Of course! As his close friend, you don't even go to see him!" West slapped his hand away and complained. Just as he was talking, the elf lord came out dragging a silver satin robe. , West held his breath.

For the celebration of the moon, Silver Star's attire was much grander than it was three days ago. The satin robe was inlaid with tiny crystal starlight dots, her long algae-green hair was pulled up high, and fixed with a crystal crown in the shape of a star flower. A half-moon necklace made of blue glass and green peridot hangs on his chest. Holding a crystal scepter carved with vines and flowers, he walks up to Nuo Lei.

As soon as he saw Nuo Lei, the forest deer seemed to see his relatives rushing over, rubbing his palms and legs flatteringly. His heartstrings were touched, and Nuo Lei didn't dare to take a deep breath. He quietly avoided the approach of the forest deer, took half a step back and bowed: "Hello, Your Excellency."

"As I said before, call me Silver Star." Silver Star helped Nuo Lei, and the string of crystal beads hanging from her slender wrist made a crisp sound, "The first parade of the celebration is about to begin, I hope you can join me Take a car."

Every elf would show an extremely excited expression upon hearing such an invitation, and would gladly accept this honor, but Norley hesitated, asking uncertainly, "Where are my friends?"

Yin Xing paused, looked at Ferth subconsciously, and said with a gentle smile: "Your friends will be arranged in the next car, so it's okay, right?"

Nuo Lei looked at Ferth, his black dragon gritted his teeth reluctantly, and squeezed his palm: "Don't worry, I will take good care of you, but you should also pay attention to yourself, don't give him any frivolity. Opportunity!"

Nuo Lei was greatly encouraged by the trust Firth gave him. He hooked Goufeerth's palm with his backhand, causing his dragon to gasp and frown in surprise: "Did you do it on purpose! At this time to seduce I!"

"Firth, you are so cute."

Ferth moved his ears suspiciously, did he hear wrongly, his partner actually said he was...cute?

Seeing Nuo Lei and the dragon eye-to-eye, Yinxing unconsciously made his guide element stronger, and Nuo Lei couldn't help turning his head back, but soon, he struggled to make his eyes clear again.

What a strong will... Silver Star exclaimed, I must quickly make this person mine.

"Are you ready, Norley?" Silver Star said softly.

Nuo Lei calmed down and smiled back: "Since it is the Holy Master's invitation, I would rather obey than respect."

Silver Star showed a pure smile: "Great, can I invite you and my followers to change clothes in the inner room, because the celebration parade pays attention to rules and rituals, so I can only work hard on you."

Seeing the elf guard standing in front of him, Nuo Lei reluctantly let go of Ferth's hand.Ferth's brows were tightly knit into a knuckle. Although he was reluctant, he didn't make it difficult for Nuo Lei.Taking advantage of the time when Nuo Lei was leaving, he stared at Yin Xing and announced word by word: "No matter how many tricks you have, Nuo Lei will not stand by your side."

"How do you conclude that it's impossible?" Facing her rival in love, Yin Xing tore off her gentle expression, and curled the corner of her mouth coldly, "You obscene Dragon Clan, you don't deserve such an outstanding person at all."

You call me obscene? ?I haven't completed the ceremony with my partner yet, yet you call me obscene? !Ferth heard the biggest prejudice against him in the world, just because he is a dragon!He suppressed his anger and asked sullenly, "How much do you know about me, how dare you slander me like this?"

Yin Xing sneered and said, "Why should I know you? It's enough for me to know Nuo Lei."

"you--"

"Okay, Your Excellency the Black Dragon, don't say a few words," Duke Wenger stood in front of Ferth, pulled him aside and whispered, "Isn't it enough to know what kind of dragon you are? Nore, why bother arguing?" Well, don't tell me you don't have to sit next to the Holy Lord if you win the argument?"

Ferth regained consciousness in an instant as if he had been poured cold water in a bucket. He took a few breaths and said angrily, "You're right, I was almost dazzled by anger again. If I can cure that human demon If you are angry, you don't have to turn to him, and Norley doesn't have to be at the mercy of this guy."

Seeing the Black Dragon so calmly analyzing the situation in front of him, Duke Wenger eased his expression and said, "It's not too late to know now, let's make good use of your racial talent, Your Excellency the Black Dragon."

My racial talent?What else do I have but space magic?Ferth frowned, and after a while, his eyes lit up.

"Your Excellency Holy Master, Your Excellency Norley is here." Just as Fierth was eager to test his discovery, the closed door of the inner room opened again.Nuo Lei, who was dressed in a silver suit, appeared in front of them.

Unlike Silver Star's robe, Norley was wearing chain armor. The armor carved with complicated patterns did not hide his figure, but made him look extremely handsome.Ferth suddenly thanked Yin Xing for his decision to change clothes, allowing him to see such a unique companion.

Nuo Lei noticed his expression, he shrugged his hair in embarrassment, and asked consciously, "Is it strange?"

Ferth looked at him intoxicated: "Of course not, he's much more handsome than that guy Betisno. How I want to take off your armor right now..."

"Firth, the parade hasn't started yet..."

"I know, you have to sit next to that guy." Ferth wrinkled his nose childishly, and he kissed his palm and flew towards Norley, "Don't be fooled by him, honey, I'm with you .”

"I see, my dear...Firth."

After everything was ready, surrounded by elf guards and priests, Yin Xing and Nuo Lei boarded the magic car covered with stars and flowers, with two unlit moon lamps hanging on the front of the car.Before the magic car drove away from the sacred tree, there was still some preparation work. Taking advantage of this gap, Nuo Lei tried hard to maintain his sanity.

He sat beside Silver Star, and the rich fruity-scented guide element greeted him desperately as if he didn't want money, and the forest deer almost completely lay on his knees, blinking their eyes to please him.If this was in the interstellar era, Nuo Lei, who was single, might have followed, but now...he already has someone.

"Are you nervous?" Silver Star asked gently.

"It's okay." Nuo Lei tried to keep his words and breathing frequency to a minimum, so as not to show embarrassment.

Yin Xing caressed the hand on his knee in relief, and said with a smile, "You will get used to it."

"No, I don't think the same experience will happen again." Norley declined.

"Not necessarily, as long as you stay, there will be such a celebration every year." And you will always sit by my side.

Nuo Lei lowered his head and concentrated on stroking the forest deer. Compared with Yin Xing, who had obvious courtship intentions beside him, the spiritual department seemed less threatening.Yin Xing was not in a hurry, and asked leisurely: "By the way, why didn't I see your spiritual system?"

"It's so big that you can't see the scenery when it appears at the celebration."

"Yeah, I think it's mighty." Silver Star missed the big guy who had a lot of fun with the vines, he suddenly thought of something, and looked at Nuo Lei asking, "I have a question... Are you looking for a dragon because your god is a dragon?"

"No, that's not the case." Nuo Lei shook his head, "Firth and I didn't meet because of the Psychiatric Department."

"Then why did you and him..."

"Let it be, I've been with him since I came here."

"With a dragon..." Silver Star sighed, and said earnestly, "Norley, you are so kind-hearted, don't you know that dragons are fickle creatures, and they have countless lovers before they find a mate , Just because you haven't met yet, doesn't mean you won't meet those lovers in the future."

"I don't think...that kind of thing will happen." Nuo Lei teased the forest deer and said firmly.

Yin Xing was stunned for a moment, then softened his tone and persuaded: "No, you don't understand dragons."

Nuo Lei raised his head, looked directly into Yin Xing's eyes and said, "I don't think you understand Ferth either. He and I have already concluded a partnership contract, and he won't bother."

Signed a partnership contract?How can it be?That dragon actually signed such an important contract with another race?Is he trying to exterminate himself?Yinxing stared blankly at Nuo Lei's smiling face, and couldn't help gripping his robe tightly.

Seeing Yin Xing's shaken expression, Nuo Lei secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Hearing this news, should the elf lord give up on him now?
