The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

The imperial capital of Tamriel.

On the second floor of the Durham family mansion, in the luxurious study room.

"Is it today?" Duke Drum asked.

"Yes, Your Excellency, Master Greenwood and the others set out yesterday, and they should start today." Butler Owen bowed slightly and replied respectfully.

"Well, is there any news from the Black Knife Organization?"

"It has been confirmed. They sent a killer king who arrived in Nome Province one day in advance."

Duke Drum nodded slightly and asked again: "Is Greg the Corpse Splitter accompanying Greenwood?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Well, that shouldn't be a problem." Duke Drum nodded, somewhat talking to himself.

However, there was still a hint of gloom in his mind at this moment.

Because this morning, when he met again with Admiral Donald, the senior executive of the Sword Bearer Headquarters, the other party said something to him.

‘If mediation is possible, it would be best to reconcile with this Renne. ’

At first, he didn't understand what Donald meant.

Until the other party told him that the latest top-secret information from the sword holder showed that this Renne had defeated the projection of a certain god's legendary strength head-on.

It's not that Donald is ill-informed, but that the confidentiality level of this information is too high. Only a few people in the entire Sword Bearer Headquarters can read the full picture, and he is not one of them.

This immediately shocked Duke Drum!

Although it is a projection of a god with legendary strength, in fact, among the legendary strong men in humans, there are basically very few who can compete with it.

Because even a trace of projection represents a ray of energy from the gods. All kinds of extraordinary combat skills and witchcraft are at your fingertips, and the various combinations have already reached the level of perfection.

And Ren can defeat the projection of a god, which means that the opponent is likely to have the legendary peak combat power.

Of course, it is also possible that Ren used some powerful witchcraft or some other means to repel the opponent.

Fortunately, Greg, one of the family advisors, the ‘Corpse Splitter’, also existed in this class after opening the giant rock combat body.

Coupled with the King of Killers' ambush, even if Ren's strength has reached the legendary peak, with the combination of the two, he is still very sure of killing the opponent.

Duke Drum thought to himself.

In addition, Greenwood is not actually his nephew, but his illegitimate son, who is only nominally named in his younger brother's name.

Moreover, he is the most talented among all his illegitimate children.

Even Greenwood himself doesn't know this.

This is why he is a little worried.

——

at the same time.

In Nome Province, the square of Quagmire Town was littered with flesh and blood and corpses, and it was a mess.

"Oh? Misunderstanding? Unfortunately, I don't want to hear your explanation."

I saw Renn in the form of the Dragon King, glancing at Greenwood in front of him with his cold vertical pupils, and then huge claws fell from the sky!

"No! Renn, don't you want to know why Sam's group is so obsessed with that elf?" Greenwood, who was about to die, thought of something for a moment and shouted excitedly.

Because judging from the ruthlessness of Ren's attack just now, the other party will not take into account his background in the ducal family at all. If he threatens the other party with this, he will die faster.

As long as you start from the person the other person cares about, you may still be able to survive.

"Huh~~" A strong wind hit his face, and Greenwood's face was distorted and deformed by the blow!

Just when Greenwood was horrified, the ferocious giant claw stopped.

Just listen to Ren say: "Why?"

"For some unknown reason, the second prince likes elf women the most. In the entire Tamriel, except for the elf ambassador who dare not move, there are people in other parts of the empire who are helping him collect elf women."

"Oh? Really?"

"Really! I swear! I swear!" Greenwood shouted hoarsely as if he saw hope of survival.

"Two years ago, in the province of Munster, Sam's regiment also captured another elf woman, and she was also sent to the second prince." Greenwood seemed to increase the credibility of his words, adding Tell a secret.

"Who knows about this? Can anyone prove what you said?" Ren's eyes flickered.

For a moment, he realized something.

"Yes, yes! Owen, the butler of our Durham family, knows it." Hearing Ren's question, Greenwood looked happy and said quickly.

In his opinion, his life was saved.

At this moment, even others think so.

"Well, see you then." Ren said calmly.

goodbye?

What does goodbye mean?

While Greenwood was still thinking about what Ren's words meant, suddenly, he felt it was dark!

"boom!"

A huge pit suddenly appeared on the ground, the shape of which happened to be the shape of a huge dragon claw, and Greenwood, together with the metal cage, was crushed into a pulp by the giant claw in an instant!

At this time, Ren finally canceled the Dragon King form and returned to his human body.

"You actually killed him. He is the most promising direct heir of the Durham family!" Mia said in horror as she watched this scene.

"Do you know that the Durham family is the guardian family of the other party?"

"So what?" Renn glanced at Mia and said.

Chandler sat on the ground, scared out of his wits.

Because since Ryan dared to kill Greenwood directly, he would naturally dare to kill him.

"Sir Ryan, don't kill me, don't kill me! I'll tell you everything."

"Greenwood's Drum family has a close relationship with Admiral Donald, one of the top sword bearers. This time, your assigned mission was also the work of the other party."

"Oh? Anything else?" Ryan looked at Chandler calmly.

"Yes, yes, let me think about it, let me think about it!"

"Forget it, I don't want to hear anything more from a treacherous villain." Ryan shook his head and said.

He raised his right hand and his lips slightly closed.

"Multiple cutting nets!"

Suddenly, three huge nets emitting silver light suddenly appeared in front of him, and flew rapidly towards Chandler's position!

"Don't, don't, ah!!"

As the shrill scream came, Chandler, with a terrified expression on his face, froze instantly. He and the metal cage were cut into tofu-sized pieces by the huge metal net in an instant.

At this time, when Claire saw the look in Ryan's eyes, she couldn't help but hold Beyonce's arm tightly, shaking her head like a rattle, trembling:

"Captain, we have nothing to do with this matter! Really nothing!"

Woo woo woo! This new captain is too cruel!

She wants to quit the team!

Is it too late now?

And what did she just hear?

It's either the secret of the prince or the admiral. Oh my God! I won't be silenced!

At this moment, Claire found that she missed her mother a little, and she wanted to go back to her hometown in the county town.

"I remember, with this breath and form, you... Are you a royal heir!" At this time, Mia seemed to have thought of something, her eyes widened, and she looked at Ryan in fear.

But how could this be possible!

The intelligence on Ryan investigated by the Durham family clearly stated that the other party was just a young man from a small town, how could he become a royal heir in a flash.

This is like meeting a straw sandal weaver on the road in the previous life, and when you ask, it turns out to be Liu Huangshu, a relative of the Han Dynasty.

"What? Royal family?" Claire and Beyonce also looked at each other with shock.

"Oh, have you heard anything?" Ryan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and looked at Mia.

What the other party said still interested him. It was also the first time he heard someone say that there was a situation similar to his dragon transformation.

"Yes, I once saw a competition at the Imperial Royal Academy by chance. One of the parties was the offspring of a prince of the empire and had royal blood."

"However, the height of the other party after the blood transformation was about five meters, the tail was also very short, and there were no wings. In addition, his dragon scales were different from yours, and the horns on his head were also different."

Hmm?

If you don't consider details such as the color of the dragon scales, wouldn't it be a replica of the first form of his dragon transformation-the dragon warrior form?

Interesting.

Imperial Academy?

Claire once studied at the Imperial Academy, so I could ask her for information.

When he thought of Claire, Ryan suddenly remembered that Claire had told him that after her father, Count Habsburg, recovered from his injury, she would return to the Imperial Academy to study.

I don't know if Claire has come to the imperial capital Tamriel at this time, but I can go and ask after I return to the headquarters.

"Can I survive?" Mia finally couldn't bear the pressure and asked this question.

"It's a pity, Mia, since you chose to attack me at that time, you should know the result." Ryan looked at the other party calmly and said.

"I believe you should have heard a saying that kindness to the enemy is cruelty to yourself."

"Then I don't want to die like this, let me die beautifully, okay?" Mia smiled bitterly and pointed at Chandler who was cut into pieces.

"Okay!"

"Captain Ryan, you... You killed these three people directly, I'm afraid you will go back..." Beyonce hesitated.

"In theory, these three people ambushed you first, you can send them to the military court, and then..."

"And then? Then they will come out smoothly." Ryan shook his head and said.

Beyonce instantly understood what Ryan meant, sighed immediately, and said nothing more.

Because of what she had seen and heard in the imperial capital in the past two years, she knew that Ryan was not talking nonsense.

The Dragun Empire has lasted for more than two thousand years, and the class has long been solidified. Many places are even more corrupt. The connections of the top wealthy families in the imperial capital are like the roots of a thousand-year-old tree, deeply rooted in the flesh and blood of the empire.

"In addition, if you are worried about the revenge of the Drum family, I will wait for them to come." Ryan smiled and said.

At this time, Langgel and the other three members of the Blade Team, who had been stunned for a long time, came back to their senses after a long time. They immediately ran over and said, "Sir Ryan, are you okay?"

"It's okay. I'm sorry to scare you this time."

"No, it's okay, Lord Ryan. Your strength is stronger than before. By the way, what should we do with these?" Langgel swallowed his saliva and pointed to the corpses on the ground.

Ryan looked at the ground.

The body of Greg, the 'Corpse Splitter', was not bad. It was just torn in half, which was relatively easy to deal with.

But the assassin king of the Black Knife Organization had been cut into pieces by him. It would be troublesome to take it back as evidence.

"Uh, Lord Ryan, otherwise, get a bucket and put all the pieces of meat back." At this time, Fry suggested on the side.

"If it's not convenient for you to take it back to the headquarters, you can also store it in the branch and we will take care of it."

"That's fine." Renn nodded.

While Langer and the other three were cleaning up the battlefield, Ren came to the edge of the square alone, savoring the feeling of just transforming into the third form of the 'Dragon King'.

At this moment, he rarely felt a little sore and weak all over.

Obviously, the third form consumes more physical energy than the second form, 'Dragon General'.

However, the improvement in combat power is also much higher.

When he just killed Greg, he felt that he only used less than half of his strength, but even so, he easily tore apart this so-called peak legendary 'corpse splitter'.

Thinking back to the feeling of being freed from the shackles in his body before, Renn can basically confirm that in the third form, his combat power has fully entered the epic level.

In addition, after flapping the flesh wings, the speed increase was far beyond his expectation.

Unfortunately, he has never seen the battle scene of an epic-level strongman with his own eyes, and Renn has never had a head-on battle with an epic-level strongman.

The only thing that can be used to judge is the battle between the dragon knight Menia named the 'Red Queen' and the three-headed sea dragon with the devil's tail.

But he was more than a hundred miles away at the time. Judging from the energy fluctuations, even if he transformed into the third form, there seemed to be a certain gap between the two.

But the problem is that Her Highness the ‘Red Queen’ Menia is not at the bottom of the list of epic powerhouses.

Shaking his head slightly, Ren decided to stop thinking about this and turn to check the previous battle prompts:

[Congratulations, you defeated a strong enemy and obtained 31 gold skill points! 】

[Congratulations, your will (hidden) attribute has been improved! 】

[Congratulations, your King of Thousand Blades (Epic) career level has been improved! 】

As he successively killed the Venom Dragon, the King of Killers and 'Greg the Corpse Splitter' this time, the King of Thousand Blades (Epic) professional level successfully entered lv13, allowing Renn to gain 1 attribute point and 1 skill point. point.

Now his total remaining attribute points are 13 points, and his remaining skill points are 6 points.

As for the gold skill points, after consuming 8 points last time, there are still 46 points left. This time, another 31 points were gained. Therefore, it has reached 77 points at this moment, setting a new record high.

However, since Ren already knows the golden skill points and can use them to deduce the witchcraft killing move, it is not too much at all.

After all, it took 28 points to perfect the second-level witchcraft killing move. You can imagine how much it will consume if it is a third-level witchcraft.

After returning to Nome City that day and having dinner with the Blade Team to catch up on old times, Renn took Claire and Beyoncé back to the Sword Bearer Headquarters.

Although they had only experienced one battle, the two women admired Ren very much.

After a day and a half.

After arriving directly at the Sword Bearer's headquarters in the Imperial City by airship, Renne naturally needed to submit the task first. At the same time, he also needed to state the reasons for the death of two of his team members.

Although it was a secret attack by the other party, after all, someone was dead, so the process still had to go through.

As soon as he arrived at the mission hall, Renne went straight to Anthony's office.

Seeing someone entering without knocking, Anthony was about to scold him, but the next second, his eyes widened and he looked at the person with a shocked expression and said:

"Sir Leren, why are you back?"

"Haha, Sir Anthony, shouldn't I come back?" Renn couldn't help but look at the fat man in front of him with a smile and said.

"No, no, I mean, have you completed your mission?"

"You mean killing the Venom Flying Dragon? Of course, by the way, you also killed a few people who deliberately murdered me."

"Murder, someone actually dares to murder you?" Anthony's face suddenly turned pale and he said slightly panicked.

"Well, I'm also curious as to why the other party is so clear about my mission location and target. It seems that someone at the Sword Bearer's headquarters should have leaked the information about my mission."

Ren said while staring at Anthony.

Anthony's face turned pale when he saw it. He quickly took out a handkerchief, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said, "This... shouldn't be the case, it won't be the case."

"By the way, I conveniently killed two people who attacked me, namely Chandler, a magic iron-level sword wielder, and Mia, a mithril-level sword wielder."

"What?! Mr. Ren, did you...did you just kill two people in your team?" After hearing the news, Anthony suddenly made a 'pop' and slid from the seat to the ground.

Clearly frightened!

The way he looked at Renn had changed!

The young man in front of me, who looks harmless when he smiles, is actually a very cruel person!

He actually killed people directly.

You must know that Chandler is not a kitten or puppy, he is the second son of the powerful Marquis of the Imperial Capital.

"Well, as Captain of the Sword Bearers, I guess I have that right, don't I?"

"Coco, even if this is the case, you shouldn't kill the other party directly. The two of them secretly attacked you, and the headquarters will definitely investigate. Mr. Ren, you are too reckless."

"In addition, normally, you are stronger than them. You can imprison them and let the headquarters and military courts judge them."

"Haha, I haven't finished speaking yet. At that time, there were other people besieging me, so, you know, I accidentally killed them all by mistake." Renn said with a smile.

"Is there anyone else?" Anthony said with a horrified look on his face.

"Sir Anthony, please report it. This matter is no longer something you can handle." Renn waved his hand and said.

Because he found that there was no point in causing trouble at Anthony's level.

"It's true that my authority is limited. Please wait a moment. I'll report it right away." After saying that, Anthony, who had a spherical figure, ran out of the office as fast as he could.

Renn naturally considered whether to give Greenwood, Mia, Chandler and others a more decent explanation. For example, several people died in the battle with the Venom Flying Dragon.

In this case, you can still save some face.

But after thinking about it, Renn rejected the idea.

After all, this world has mysterious professions such as diviners and astrologers. If he tells a white lie just to save some face for them, he will probably shoot himself in the foot.

Instead of doing this, let him completely tear open this last fig leaf.

Half an hour later, Renne was invited to a conference room.

This time there were more people coming. As for Anthony, he was not even qualified to participate.

The leader was an old man who was calm and proud. On his epaulettes there were a pair of golden branches and leaves, plus four suns. This meant that the other party was a general of the Dragon Empire, and his military rank was higher than that of an admiral.

If Renn remembered correctly, the other party should be General Augustus, who was responsible for presiding over the daily work of the Sword Bearer Headquarters, and his status was second only to Marshal Alfred.

Even within the entire empire, the other party is a first-class big shot.

Next to him were two imperial generals, and two major generals, holding notebooks in their hands, seemingly relegated to the position of clerks.

Obviously, Ren's incident has completely alarmed the highest level of the Sword Bearer Headquarters.

"Your Excellency Renn, this is General Augustus, this is General Donald, this..."

"Now you can tell the story of the situation." The capable female major general sitting at the edge said.

"Okay!" Renn nodded, and then he began to tell the whole story.

A few minutes later.

A male major general sitting at the far end suddenly interrupted Ren's story and said in a deep voice:

"Wait a minute, Mr. Ren, did you just say that Mithril-level sword wielder Mia and Demonic Iron-level sword wielder Chandler suddenly cast witchcraft on you and attacked you when you were fighting the Venom Flying Dragon?"

"Excuse me, is there any evidence to suggest this?"

"Yes, the other two members of my team can prove this, and the Blade Team of the Sword Bearer Division of Nome Province can also prove this." Renn glanced at the other party and said.

"Please continue, Lord Ren."

About ten minutes later, when Ren said that he suddenly encountered a sneak attack by the 'King of Killers' of the Black Knife Organization, everyone present except General Augustus who still looked calm, everyone else looked surprised. .

"Sir Ren, the person you just mentioned who assassinated you was the 'King of Killers' affiliated with the Black Knife Organization?" the female major general asked doubtfully.

"Well, the opponent's body and weapons are now kept in the Sword Bearer Branch of Nome Province. I think it will not be difficult for the headquarters to investigate the opponent's identity, right?"

"If there are corpses and special weapons, it shouldn't be difficult." The female major general nodded.

And when Renn recounted that Greenwood ordered Greg to attack him and was killed by him, the general named Donald couldn't bear it anymore and said:

"You just said that you first killed the Venom Flying Dragon, then the Killer King of the Black Knife Organization, and finally this 'Corpse Splitter' Greg."

"You must know that among these three, two are at the peak of legends. As for the King of Killers, dealing with his attack will not be much easier than facing a peak legend. If you can defeat these three people in a row, then It’s not common sense.”

"In addition, if you can really kill the above three people, then Greenwood's strength is very different from yours. There is no reason why you can't hold back."

"I think you need a more detailed and reasonable explanation." Donald said solemnly.

"Haha, I can't help it. Who told me, the new sword wielder, that my first assigned task is to kill the Venom Flying Dragon?"

"I was too excited at the time and accidentally used too much force and beat Greenwood to death." Renn shrugged and said with a smile.

Naturally, Renn didn't have a good impression of Admiral Donald, who was likely to be manipulating his assigned tasks in secret.

"You" Obviously, Admiral Donald is extremely dissatisfied with Ren's attitude.

In particular, Renne's words also meant something, which suddenly gave Donald a bad premonition.

Could it be said.

The unruly young man in front of him knew something.
