Cards are born to be king

As soon as Jiang Yong came to the entrance of the Adventurer's Union, he felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere.On weekdays, the guild with no permanent residents at all is full of people coming and going today.There were quite a few adventurers with serious faces, walking in and out of it in a hurry, with a strong smell of blood.

"what's up?"

Jiang Yong was surprised. He waited and watched at the door for a while, and finally saw an acquaintance.

"Old Thunderhead."

Jiang Yong greeted, and when the old man turned around, he immediately found that the old Leitou's expression was not quite right.His brows were tightly frowned, as if he was thinking about something important, and the old padded jacket on his body was replaced with another leather armor, and he was still holding a chain hammer in his hand.

"It's Fei Lian."

When the old Leitou saw that it was Jiang Yong, the expression on his face relaxed a little.He came over and said kindly.

"Why did you come to the guild today? Do you want to refine medicine or sell some medicine. Now the adventurer's union is in short supply of medicine, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory price."

"No, I'm not here today to sell medicine."

Jiang Yong pointed to the 'lively' scene of people coming and going, and said doubtfully:

"What's going on with our guild? There are so many people today."

"Oh, it's nothing. A group of ice wolves appeared in the Twilight Forest. It seems that they are planning to attack the village. Now the Adventurer's Union is organizing people to encircle and suppress them."

Old Leitou casually skipped over, and led Jiang Yong into the trade union.

"The pharmacy has been used by other people these days. I'm afraid you are too late, and you may have to wait for a while."

"It's not old Leitou, and I didn't come here this time to make potions."

Jiang Yong hesitated for a moment, and tentatively said:

"Have you ever heard of bone erosion flowers?"

"You mean bone erosion flower? Well... let me think about it. Sigh, the guild used to have a certain reserve, but now it's all used up."

With a somewhat regretful expression on Old Leitou's face, he looked at Jiang Yong.

"Do you want to make a blast potion?"

Jiang Yong scratched his head, smiled and said:

"Yes, I'm going to buy a few. Old Leitou, do you have any left, or can I buy a few with you?"

"Hey, what to buy, that thing is not a high-grade material, not worth a few red coins. It's just a coincidence this time, the bone erosion flowers in the union have been used up, otherwise I will give you a dozen Doo will do."

The old Leitou thought for a while, and suddenly his frowns loosened.

"Recently, there was an adventurer's mission, which just happened to escort people to the Tante Ice Marsh. I'll let them take you. To become a pharmacist, you must not only be able to refine medicine, but also master the identification and collection of medicinal materials. Skills. It just so happens that you can also try to collect herbs yourself."

"Adventurer mission?"

Jiang Yong subconsciously glanced at the adventurer walking by them.Big shoulders, round waist, 1.9 meters tall, covered in tattered leather armor, eyes as sharp as knives.Putting this image on himself, Jiang Yong trembled, and turned his head to look at Old Leitou wanting to cry without tears:

"Old Leitou, do you really think I can play the role of an adventurer? This thing sounds particularly dangerous. With my small arms and legs, I'm afraid I'll be finished when I go out to pick up the mission."

To be honest, Jiang Yong didn't have the confidence to compare with those adventurers who had been working hard in the Warcraft group for many years. If he encountered any danger, it would be too late for him to escape, so he wouldn't have the energy to protect others.

He opened up his doubts and told the old Leitou.Unexpectedly, the old man laughed after hearing his words, and patted Jiang Yong's shoulder happily.

"Don't think about it, I want to stuff you into the escort, not to make you an adventurer!"

"Huh, that's what it is."

Jiang Yong breathed a sigh of relief and said happily:

"That's right, I'm a weak and weak pharmacist, even if I become an adventurer, no one will hire me."

Hearing his words, the wrinkles on Old Leitou's face twisted.He subconsciously glanced at the bombed-out and rebuilt rooms, with a stiff smile on his face.

Jiang Yong didn't realize it. After discussing the time and place with the old Leitou, he said hello and prepared to leave.But at this moment, Jiang Yong saw a bloody, wounded and unconscious adventurer being hurriedly carried in from the door.Someone came forward to greet him, his expression was calm and numb, as if he had seen this situation a lot.

Jiang Yong looked at the man's powerlessly hanging hand, a little dazed.

"What's the matter, is there anything else?"

Seeing that he still hadn't left, Old Leitou asked suspiciously.But Jiang Yong hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice:

"Old Leitou, isn't the recent siege mission particularly dangerous?"

"It's okay, it's not much different from usual."

is it?

I don't know why, although the old Leitou said so, Jiang Yong still felt a little uneasy.Thinking of how old Leitou took care of him, he hesitated for a moment, and took out from his satchel.

"This is the confusion potion that I just refined recently. These two bottles of potion have been refined relatively well, and their power is not bad. Old Leitou, you should take it with you. It might be useful if something happens."

Noticing the surprised face of old Leitou, Jiang Yong was a little embarrassed.He forced the potion into the old man's hand and waved his hand.

"Then I'll go first, and see you when I do the task!"

Watching Jiang Yong's figure gradually go away, Old Leitou stood there in a daze for a long time.He looked at the potions in his bosom, and carefully held them in the palm of his hand.After a while, he shook his head.

"Goodbye? This word is interesting. I hope my old bones can really live until the time of goodbye."

Holding the potion, the old Leitou quickly walked through the hall and walked into the secret room.There are already five people sitting in the secret room, namely Dewener in gray robe, Captain Celtic, Master Turan and two other men in black robes.Seeing the old Leitou come in, Captain Celtic nodded at him, and the others continued their discussion.

"The ice wolf area in the evening forest has been set up. I have already greeted the Beast Emperor in the middle of the forest. This time he will not make any trouble."

Turan said seriously, and then another man in black robe spoke in a low voice:

"We need to get in touch with the two nearby cities as soon as possible. The Frost Pattern will wake up soon. The nearby cities and villages with a radius of thousands of miles may be attacked. We must start to arrange immediately."

"The loss of manpower is not too much now, and it is still within expectations."

Old Leitou took up the conversation and noticed that everyone was looking at the two bottles of medicine in his arms.He put it on the table generously, showing off with a bit of pride:

"The two bottles of potions were given to me by Fei Lian on his own initiative. Hey, this young man is really good. I plan to let him follow the adventurer to the Tant Ice Marsh for a mission in three days. The later the return, the safer it is. This is what we discussed before." Okay, although our layout is already very good, but in case there is a mistake in the town..."

"Is that child Amos' favorite child?"

A man in black robe laughed, his voice sounded very cheerful and sunny.

"If I can survive this time, I'd like to meet this kid. It's unbelievable that someone as picky as Amos can say praises, Turan, aren't you exaggerating?"

"You will understand when you see the scene where they get along with each other."

Turan snorted angrily, with a serious expression:

"Don't say anything that is not dead, isn't it a dragon? Amos has slaughtered it before. This time we just slaughtered it again!"

He maintained a relaxed tone, but at the end, his brows and eyes were a little more gloomy.

"I just hope that the Ash Snake won't come out to make trouble at this time."

Devine's deep and hoarse voice sounded:

"Have all the shelters in the forest been settled? If the situation really reaches the worst, all the residents can only be evacuated."

"Fortunately, this news has been tightly sealed. Otherwise, if those people know that one of the six ancient dragons is here now, I think many people will come to grab the fragments of the star key."

Captain Celtic said with a wry smile, his always optimistic face also added a bit of melancholy.

"As long as we can hide it, we don't have Amos in us. We can't slay the dragon alone, and we can't keep the fragments of the star key."

……

Although the Adventurer's Union has entered a state of intense preparations, the living conditions of the residents in the town have not changed much.After all, they only thought that a group of ice wolves came to the Twilight Forest, and in this season, monsters would usually attack the town.They are used to it.

The fact that there might be an ice wolf attack is not as angry as another thing that makes the villagers angry.The blue-tailed eggs in the village have been lost for several days in a row, and the thief came and went without a trace, and he couldn't find the slightest clue!This almost made all the villagers very angry, and they vowed to catch that hateful little thief.

And in a warehouse not far from the town, someone was throwing a fit.

"What exactly is going on?"

Corky said sharply in disbelief. Looking at the empty warehouse in front of him, he felt that he was about to suffer from angina.The person in charge of the warehouse had already been knocked down to the ground by his whip.

After hurriedly walking back and forth a few times at the warehouse door, Corky still couldn't believe his eyes. Fifteen hundred blue-tailed eggs just disappeared? !Even if the guards he uses to guard the blue-tailed eggs are all useless, they will always make a noise!Why are all the eggs gone?

"Have you found anything?"

Barely suppressing his anger, Corky said coldly.However, the guard's cautious answer made him furious again.

"Useless things, hurry up and find them for me! If you can't find them within three days, I'll send you all to the Colosseum!"

Seeing the guards leaving in a hurry, Korki felt powerless in front of the empty warehouse. Who on earth could steal all the blue-tailed eggs quietly?

"Master."

"Uncle De, what do you think is going on? Is it true that I can't do anything well..."

It was rare for Corky to be a little downcast. Like a defeated little rooster, he turned to look at the old man and sighed.And Uncle De patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, and said in relief:

"It's okay, young master, you are still young."

"Anyway, don't let father know about this beforehand."

Corky barely lifted his spirits, suppressing the anger welling up in his heart.

"I will definitely find all the blue-tailed eggs, and then let that daring thief know what it means not to live, not to die!"

……

Jiang Yong and Lao Leitou made an appointment to leave in three days.This is his first mission as an adventurer. Although he is a protected one, Jiang Yong felt a little worried after the joy in his heart. He decided to stay in the library and prepare things for the next few days. Bring all the potions that I have refined these days, and I am sure it will be useful anytime.

Time passed quickly, and three days passed in a blink of an eye.Today, Jiang Yong is doing the final finishing in the library.Because he was going to gather at the Adventurer's Guild early tomorrow morning, he didn't plan to stay so late like in the past. Jiang Yong left the library shortly after dark, holding a large roll of parchment in his hand.

Walking down the steps, Jiang Yong felt a little worried. Recently, Goudan's whereabouts became more secretive, and he couldn't find it anyway. Originally, he planned to take Goudan with him on this adventure mission. Can take care of each other.But this little thing doesn't know where it went.

"Fei Lian."

As soon as he reached the door, Jiang Yong was stopped.He raised his head and saw a team of more than a dozen villagers standing in front of the library, led by Yasuo, the blacksmith he was familiar with.

"Uncle, what's the matter?"

Jiang Yong asked.

"Haha Tip Lian, I see you have been studying in the library recently, you are very diligent!"

Uncle Yasuo laughed cheerfully, and then said:

"In the past few days, everyone spontaneously formed a team to catch the egg-stealing maniac. Do you want to join us?"

Egg thief.

When Jiang Yong heard this term, he felt very interesting.The villagers in Carter Village are quite trendy, and even gave the Egg Thief a nickname.Seeing that everyone was waiting for him, Jiang Yong thought about it, anyway, there is nothing else to do today.

"Okay, I'll join."

After all, I am also a member of the small town, so it is no big deal to join the patrol team and help out with the patrol.

After joining in, Jiang Yongcai found that everyone in the small team had a piece of cloth tied around their wrists, and their emotions seemed very agitated, as if they were about to burn.What caught Jiang Yong's attention even more was that Uncle Yasuo was carefully holding a dark animal, which looked like a dog, but not a dog, or a cat, but not a cat.

"Well, this is the black spot, the treasure hunting beast I borrowed from Master Turan. The sense of smell is extremely sensitive, as long as we can smell the little thief's breath, we can catch him firmly. Fei Lian, you came at the right time Good times, today we might be able to catch that thief!"

"When the Egg Stealer is caught, I will definitely break his legs and let him steal my eggs!"

An uncle said angrily in a rough voice:

"Yes, throw him into the ice wolf's lair in the forest, and let him know what happened to him who stole!"

"Take off his clothes and parade through the streets!"

"Just beat him to death!"

The villagers were outraged.This indignation and impassioned momentum shocked Jiang Yong. Fortunately, he had never offended the villagers. Tsk, how much public anger did this egg thief commit? I'm afraid it will not end well!With curiosity and some gloating in his heart, Jiang Yong joined the team.

He followed the team to patrol all the way, from the library to the square. From the moment he walked to the square, the black beast in Uncle Yasuo's arms suddenly straightened up and barked like a puppy.

"That's the direction!"

Everyone's nerves tensed up instantly, and they hurried forward behind Uncle Yasuo.Jiang Yong was carrying an oil lamp. After these few days of training, he has easily kept up with the pace of the big team.The treasure hunting beast named Hei Dianer seemed to really feel something, no longer the previous decadent energy, barking along the way, guiding the direction.

But looking at the direction of the crowd, Jiang Yong became more and more puzzled.How come this is getting closer and closer to the poorhouse.And then, following the direction pointed by the treasure hunting beast, his doubts became more and more serious. This guy was clearly referring to the poorhouse!

Because there is no particularly prominent building next to the almshouse, it is particularly obvious at a glance. The black spot led them around, until they reached the back door of the almshouse.

"Ow!"

The black-spotted body stood upright in Uncle Yasuo's arms, and jumped out with a bang, trotting.The villagers also discovered this situation and discussed it a lot.

"Isn't this an asylum? How did we get here?"

"Could it be that a child stole everyone's eggs? Impossible..."

Afterwards, everyone turned their attention to Jiang Yong, after all, Jiang Yong was considered a celebrity in the almshouse.At this moment, Jiang Yong had many doubts and even more worries.He got along with the children in the poorhouse and knew that they were good children.Could it be that some thief saw the remoteness of this place, stole the eggs, and hid the eggs here?

"This……"

Uncle Yasuo was also a little embarrassed, he glanced at Jiang Yong, hesitant.

"The egg thief may be hiding inside, let's go in and have a look."

An aunt said sharply that she was born with a big shoulder and a round waist, holding a thick stick in her hand, and her fighting strength was extremely high at first glance.

"I want to see what the person who stole my blue-tailed eggs looks like, and see if I don't break his leg!"

"Yes! Go in and have a look."

"Go in and have a look."

Just when everyone was about to go in with one voice, the treasure hunter suddenly chased something and ran out screaming!The big guy took a closer look and found that the one running in front turned out to be a silver striped cat!It rushed over quickly, its figure was like a silver lightning, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

And the black spot followed behind it with incomparable persistence, barking.Seeing this sudden scene, everyone was a little dazed, but Uncle Yasuo reacted first, turned around and led everyone to chase the black spot together.Jiang Yong also breathed a sigh of relief, he followed the group of people to chase the black spot and circled the town a few times.

Seeing that the time was approaching the early hours of the morning, and the black spot had disappeared, the pursuit of the egg-stealing monster finally stopped temporarily.Everyone went back to their respective homes, and Jiang Yong also felt a little tired.When he returned to the poorhouse, he packed up all the things he would bring tomorrow.After yawning, Jiang Yong felt a little sleepy.

It was late again now, and the other children in the poorhouse were asleep.Jiang Yong turned off the oil lamp and prepared to go to sleep.But suddenly, he thought of the place where Black Spot ran into before.The warehouse of the poorhouse is there, and the keys are usually firmly held by the aunt.

Could there really be some egg-stealing maniac hiding there?

Jiang Yong was a little worried. After all, the warehouse stored food for the relief home throughout the winter. If the egg-stealing monster wanted to steal not only eggs, but also other things, it would be fatal.

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, Jiang Yong finally decided to take a look over there.Putting on an oil lamp and putting on a cotton coat, Jiang Yong tiptoed over there with the potion in his hand. As soon as he reached the warehouse door, his heart trembled.Because the door of the warehouse is not closed!

Holding his breath, Jiang Yong didn't want to disturb the thieves who might be in the warehouse.He quietly groped in from the side of the warehouse, being cautious all the way.But suddenly, Jiang Yong felt that he hit something!

Before he had time to throw out the potion in his hand, Jiang Yong only heard a loud crash, as if a hillside collapsed, or as if a dam was releasing flood water.Immediately, Jiang Yong was hit by many round things to the ground, and the things were still collapsing continuously, almost burying half of his body.

Covering his head, Jiang Yong didn't care about catching any egg thieves, he gasped for being smashed.When these things that rolled like rocks finally stopped rolling, Jiang Yong only had his head outside.Regardless of the pain in his body, Jiang Yong took a breath.Because by the moonlight, he had already discovered what it was that hit him.

That turned out to be thousands of blue-tailed eggs!I don't know how many there are, but they have piled up into a hill in the warehouse!Could it be that the Egg Thief really hid in the poorhouse, where he hid all the blue-tailed eggs?

Jiang Yong was terrified and confused, but at this moment, he suddenly heard a happy cry.A black shadow fell from the sky and landed in front of Jiang Yong.The soft feathers, the bright eyes, the ear feathers on the side of the head.

Goudan coquettishly rubbed Jiang Yong's sluggish face, turned around and jumped to the highest peak of the collapsed egg pile, like the king of the world.

"Dudududu!"

It gave an order, and many silver-patterned cats who couldn't see clearly rushed over in the dark. Each cat poured out six or seven blue-tailed eggs from the pouch, and piled them obediently beside Jiang Yong.Under Goudan's order, these cats graciously moved to Jiang Yong's side, removed all the eggs that were on him, and piled them up again into a big mountain.

"Dudu."

With Goudan's majestic order, the cats retreated quietly like ghosts.Standing at the top of Dandan Mountain, Goudan looked at Jiang Yong with piercing eyes, full of pride in his heart.Look, his master was so shocked that he couldn't speak. I think his performance is really good!

Thinking proudly, Goudan picked up the top blue-tailed egg and dropped it lightly, and put it in Jiang Yong's hand.

Shit shovel officer, sell it!

While paying attention to Jiang Yong's expression, Goudan thought joyfully in his heart.Through this time, the shit shoveler will definitely realize his own goodness deeply.Draw salted fish for yourself every day, and never be angry with yourself again!

"hiss……"

It heard Jiang Yong gasped, and even stared straight.Getting closer again, Goudan rolled the eggs in the direction of Jiang Yong.You must be amazed at the miracle it has caused!

"turn out to be……"

"turn out to be……"

"It turns out that the egg thief is you little thing!"

Jiang Yong's voice changed in shock, while Goudan tilted his head in doubt.What is an egg stealer?Shouldn't the master be surprised?He is rich, and he is so obedient, take the initiative to earn money for him!

Feeling a little dissatisfied with Jiang Yong's attitude, Goudan rubbed against his palm, trying to arouse his idea.At this moment, Jiang Yong suddenly came back to his senses, and he stretched out his hand to the little owl standing on him.

Thinking that he was about to be rewarded, Goudan stretched his head forward reservedly, thinking that he might be able to eat a feast of salted fish and chicken legs tomorrow.And at the next moment, Jiang Yong pinched its two wingtips and lifted it up.

"Dudududu!"

Goudan screamed in confusion and anger, but Jiang Yong forced his brains to collapse. "

"Hurry up and return all these things, do you hear me!"

Jiang Yongqi's teeth were itchy, seeing the little owl staring at him innocently with those big eyes, he flicked it twice again.

"Dudududu!"

Goudan just felt extremely wronged.Why do you have to pay it back? This is all the money I earned for you day and night!

It wanted to break free, but Jiang Yong still held its wings firmly. Seeing the dog's egg, he still wanted to resist, so he tugged its ear feathers again as a warning.

"What, you still lose your temper with me? You did something wrong, return all the eggs back quickly."

no!

Goudan was so angry that it was about to explode, and suddenly its body swelled up, and it finally broke free from Jiang Yong's hand.When it rolled on the ground, Goudan turned into a forest ice wolf, which was completely bigger in size.Lying on the ground, it roared threateningly at Jiang Yong.

I want me to return the money I got, dreaming!

Seeing Goudaner turned into an ice wolf, Jiang Yong didn't feel any fear at all, he just laughed angrily.Grabbing the fur on the wolf's back, he raised the wolf's face and said in a threatening tone:

"Do you dare to return the eggs? Hmm? If you don't go back today, I will have roasted owls for dinner!"

"Ouch..."

Goudan barked threateningly, but Jiang Yong was not afraid at all, and bounced on its head a few more times.Howling and whining, Goudan wanted to pounce but didn't dare to pounce. In the end, he could only be aggrieved and turned back into an owl, spreading his paws and sitting on the ground, with tears in his big eyes.

It raised its head and looked at Jiang Yong with big eyes accusingly.

Obviously I earned the money, why did it become like this...

Jiang Yong didn't expect that Goudan'er could actually cry. Seeing this aggrieved look, he couldn't do any more training.He could only lift the little guy up and put it in his hand again, like coaxing a child, his voice was rarely softer.

"It's wrong to steal other people's things. Look at how anxious people are. Hurry up and return all their eggs. Really, God, you scared me to death!"

Goudan was wronged in his hands and turned into a ball of snow-white hair. He looked at Jiang Yong weeping, and sobbed pitifully.Jiang Yong helplessly rubbed the hair on its head, and said kindly:

"Okay, don't cry, hurry up and send the eggs back. How about I draw three salted fish for you after sending them all back?"

Hearing Jiang Yong's promise, Goudan finally stopped crying.It stood up timidly, and after a muffled beep, it turned its back, and those silver cats reappeared like ghosts, they looked at each other, not understanding what happened.After hearing Goudan's order, each of them put a few blue-tailed eggs in the pouch and ran out.

"Hey, it's really causing me trouble!"

Jiang Yong complained helplessly.Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and it seems that these blue-tailed eggs can be sent out today.Fortunately, this matter is now known to everyone, and no one else knows.Thinking of this, Jiang Yong also relaxed a little.

He greeted him twice, seeing that Goudan was still standing on the top of Dandan Mountain, he ignored him.Jiang Yong knew that the little guy must have lost his temper, and told him that he was going to do the adventurer task tomorrow, regardless of whether Goudan understood or not, Jiang Yong turned around and prepared to leave the warehouse.

But at this moment, he saw a small figure standing beside the open door of the warehouse.

A layer of white sweat formed on his back, and he moved faster than his brain.Before Jiang Yong could react, he had already flew up, covered the man's mouth, and threw him to the ground.Jiang Yong didn't react until he heard a muffled groan from the figure, and found out that it was Ambier through the faint moonlight.

"So it was you, why did you come to the warehouse in the middle of the night?"

Jiang Yong's tense nerves finally relaxed a little.He let go of the child, but saw Ambier glanced at the mountains of blue-tailed eggs piled up in the warehouse, with a complicated expression on his face.

I ain't I don't!

Jiang Yong desperately wanted to save it, he didn't steal this thing at all, he is not an egg-stealing madman!But Ambier nodded obediently, stood up from the ground, and took Jiang Yong's hand with Pai Hui.

"Brother Fei Lian, I came out to look for you because I saw you were still awake. Let's go back now."

"Oh, fine fine."

Jiang Yong took Ambier's hand, looked him in the eyes, and said seriously:

"I really didn't steal the eggs in this house, I don't have this habit."

"Well, I understand, I trust Brother Fei Lian."

Amber nodded obediently.Holding Jiang Yong's hand, one big and one small went to the bedroom.Hearing Abier's reply, Jiang Yong was really moved.This is a good boy!Alas, fortunately it was Ambier who came here. If the villagers really found out about this cauldron, he would never be able to remove it.

They took off their clothes and said good night to each other, and the two lay down in bed.Thinking that he would go out to do adventurer tasks tomorrow, he would have to wake up early, Jiang Yong quickly fell asleep, and after he fell asleep.Ambier got up, and after confirming that Jiang Yong was fast asleep, he carefully opened his pillowcase, and took out a small notebook from inside.

Open it and look, there are all kinds of Fei Lian's preferences and living habits recorded in it. Holding a carbon strip, he added a lot to the first page.Fei Lian especially likes to eat blue tail eggs.

After thinking about it for a while, Ambier then added emphasis marks on this special word.Satisfied with hiding the notebook, Ambier turned to Jiang Yong and fell into a deep sleep.Since then, he has another dream in his little heart, that when he has money in the future, he must buy such a mountain and so many blue-tailed eggs for Brother Fei Lian, so that he can eat happily.

**

The royal city of Heinwalt Empire, a frozen fortress.Towering black towers stood around the fortress, and on top of the towers, the ice-blue banner of Blizzard fluttered in the cold wind.

After the first emperor of Heinwalt conquered this territory, he set the royal city on the edge of the Northern Territory, and decided to defend the people of the empire with his own body.But with the passage of time, this frozen fortress is still as strong as it was hundreds of years ago, but the king and defenders of Heinwalt are becoming more and more timid and cowardly.

Almost all the people who can live in the royal city are the Bruce tribe, that is, the blue-skinned people.The buildings in the city are in the consistent Heinwalt style, rough and simple.It is the coldest time in the Heinwalt Empire, and there are almost no pedestrians on the street, only patrolling guards with white bears.

But in the imperial palace at this moment, it is a different scene, the ice crystal chandelier is shining brightly.The tall blue-skinned aristocrats exchanged glasses and commented on the looks of the dancers on the dance floor, and it was very lively.Drinking with a wine glass here is a joke, and everyone has a small wine barrel directly in their hands.

But if you feel it carefully, there seems to be some discord in the noisy and lively atmosphere of the venue.These nobles didn't seem to be laughing out of joy, but just to warm up the atmosphere.From time to time, they glanced forward with the corners of their eyes, and only then did they reveal a bit of fear hidden in their smiles.

"Hahahaha. Your Excellency Grand Duke Heller, what do you think of this performance?"

Caton III drank the wine in the barrel in one gulp, and put down the barrel contentedly, his curly beard like a wire brush was covered with foam.He inherited the tall stature of his ancestors, with the unique light blue skin of the royal family, but his waist was as thick as a bucket.At this time, he turned sideways and smiled at the nobles beside him.

"Very good."

The noble said coldly and politely that he was Amos.Of course, the identity of Amos today is not the legendary alchemist and the master of the gray tower, he represents the Heller family of the Star Empire.As the king's cousin, he was sent to the Heinwalt Empire.So what he is wearing today is not the black robe representing an alchemist, but a gorgeous and resplendent noble dress.

The cufflinks polished by Longmian crystal were the same color as his eyes, and the long silver hair was raised up by a black ribbon, making him even more dignified and arrogant.In the banquet hall where the average height of the surrounding people was two meters, Amos was like an elf who had strayed into the kingdom of giants.But the aura on his body made people dare not underestimate him in the slightest.

The Bruce tribe almost blindly worships the strong, and there are too many days of trembling under the threat of the dragon.In order to most solemnly welcome Amos, who once slayed a dragon alone.The king began to carefully prepare for this banquet three months ago. I am afraid that even the current head of the Heller family, Amos' father, will not be so grand when he comes.

Even this time Amos came not to slay the dragon, but to do something else.

The banquet has been going well so far, which made Carton III a little relaxed, and soon indulged in enjoyment.But Queen Thalia, who was sitting dignifiedly beside the king, did not dare to relax in the slightest.She is not from the Bruce family, but has fiery red long curly hair and fair skin, and looks as out of place here as Amos.

"You really should stay in the Heinwalt Empire for a while longer. We have the best bitter ale here. There are also blizzard bears and bear rabbits. A few days ago, the guards even captured a huge wyvern with wings It can reach 20 meters when fully opened!"

The slightly drunk Carton III gestured enthusiastically to Amos, talking with relish.Amos nodded slightly out of politeness, but the nobles below felt embarrassed.The wyvern is at best a sub-dragon, but Your Excellency Amos really slaughtered the silver dragon Azas. Compared with that gigantic monster with a length of [-] meters, the wyvern is like a toy!

Carton III was very interested in talking, but the queen poked him secretly and finally remembered the business.

This time the Heinwalt Empire wants to form an alliance with the Xingyao Empire to jointly fight against the ice dragons that nest north of the Winter Great Wall.

"Ha, we Bruce people are straightforward, and there is nothing too delicate."

Caton III laughed and clapped his hands, and someone below brought up a dozen boxes.Open it one by one, and there are various special products of the Northern Territory inside.Among them, there are three or four smaller boxes full of purple star coins.This thumb-sized spar is the most expensive coin in the world, and just one piece is worth [-] red coins.

"I would like to express my sincerity with this."

Seeing the pile of boxes in front of him, Amos's expression didn't change at all. He nodded slightly, still showing the unique cold arrogance and reservedness of nobles.

Received such a cold treatment, Carton III did not dare to have any dissatisfaction.He smiled and winked, the singing and dancing stopped immediately, and the nobles who came to the banquet in the hall also quickly retreated.

"Your Excellency Grand Duke Heller, in fact, there is one more thing I want to discuss with you."

Carton III leaned forward with a cheeky face and said with a flattering smile:

"My ninth daughter, Katriya, has always admired your heroic deeds, and she has always wanted to see you. As a father, I can't entangle her, so I can only tell you with a thick skin. Little girls always I like heroes, Cattleya inherited my wife's blonde hair and snow-white skin, she looks very...suitable to Your Excellency..."
