The Defeated Dragon

The pressure of the assassination dragon is quickly dissolved in the playful conversation between father and son.

Livius was less nervous, Lester seemed more relaxed, and the Count was even in the mood to pour a glass of crescent wine for his two sons.

And then the three of them looked more like God's perspective, analyzing the impact of the assassination of dragons.

Analytical reasoning is simple.

Assuming that the dragon slaughter was real and had already occurred, there were three kinds of consequences - the Sapphire Dragon was killed by the Bull Marquis, the country collapsed and Coral Island needed to find a way back; the Bull Marquis rebellion was suppressed and the Sapphire Dragon was safe and sound, and Coral Island had to wait only for the Grand Duke's orders.

And another compromise - the Bull Marquis' assassination failed, but the Sapphire Dragon was also injured, so that the Grand Duchy of Sapphire would not perish quickly, yet the dark tide of power inside and outside was certain, and it was hard to see what to do with Coral Island in it.

Now, they are discussing each situation separately.

“The dragons have been killed, and we will not hesitate to abandon the sapphire family! Perhaps clustering the Bull Marquis is the right choice, if he can be a witch.” Livius said his thoughts on the first situation. As for humans turning to witches, it doesn't matter.

And the Earl shook his head, "What do you think, Lester? ”

“I don't like the Bull Marquis becoming a witch, a lifelong without power, just dying. Those kings, the Grand Duke, certainly wouldn't mind riding a dragon to catch him and use him as an excellent experimental material... if he really became a witch, he would surely hide and groan. ”

He has been out of the Grand Duchy of Sapphire since the Bull Marquis betrayed his assassination dragon.

Lester went on to say, "The split of the Grand Duchy of Sapphire will become inevitable. The question is, who's going to take over this archipelago, is it the Iron Ridge Kingdom, or the Eagle Kingdom, or both sides have concerns, and this is going to be a chaotic place. Without the dragon's sanctuary, pirates will surely increase wildly. ”

Dragons represent the peak of power, but also order.

Without dragons, the rate of expansion of people's hearts will probably far exceed the imagination.

Reeves asked, "What do you mean, we chose a country to come in? ”

“Yes, I prefer the Iron Ridge kingdom, after all, our homeland. ”

“Those marquises will be more popular, we are just a family of counts, leaning over and maybe descending into Viscounts. Even maintaining the status of Count requires a great deal of wealth. ”

“The islands need us to sustain, and the kingdoms cannot go too far. One or two percent of the tax may have to be paid as a protection fee, but in general it is worth it, after all, to resolve a crisis and who has deprived us of dragon asylum. ”

The Earl nodded: "There is some truth in your analysis, but ignore that even with the loss of Sapphire Dragon, the Sapphire family still possesses tremendous wealth that they can use to trade with any country for refuge. In the future, the Sapphire family may become the Marquis family of a country. ”

He looked at his two sons: “And we, who can continue to follow the Grand Duke, support in difficult times, often means that the quality of loyalty, a loyal nobleman, will be appreciated by most lords, when it is time to choose better loyalties. ”

Reeves and Lister want to change the doorway as soon as possible.

The Count wants to put up a little bit of the doorway before selling it for a price.

“We need to unite, and if the nobility of the Grand Duchy of Sapphire disperses the sand, it will be pinched at will.” Lister added, "Red Crab Island is the best place to unite, Golden Island can unite, we are an island nobleman and may be a little sour, but we are needed to govern the island. ”

……

This discussion lasted an entire day.

In the evening, the basic framework is - pretending to know nothing, secretly and secretly, ready to go, defend oneself or flee.

And the Count sends people to spy closely on the news.

Rationally, this will work, and the message is already on the way, and you will soon know how to choose how to respond.

“Returning to your cavalry team as soon as possible is a crisis and an opportunity, and since you choose to fight for glory, the battlefield is the most appropriate path.” The Count spoke with great focus, "I ignored you before, and now I hope that our father and son can fight side by side. ”

Lister solemnly saluted: “I always look forward to it. ”

Nor did the Count know what to say, but he patted Lester's shoulder again: "Your mother would be proud to see you today. ”

“Thank you.”

“Go on, rest well, there is nothing to be nervous about, nobility has a noble way of surviving, it will not cause too much waves because of the life and death of a dragon. It is our own strength that is fundamental to the world, holding the long gun in our hands without fear of any difficulty! ”

“Remember your lesson. ”

……

Return to Flower Town from Tulip Chateau.

Lester did not relax, although he temporarily let go of the dragonslaughter.

Despite his weakness, he had to prepare for the crisis, so he informed the six Earth Knights in the first place: “I hope to complete the grinding of the Knights' squad as soon as possible, and the six of you can start your own choices. ”

“May we fight for adults! ”

Without hesitation, the six immediately chose to follow.

In this way, the Knight Squad of Flower Town, formally determined.

Lester communicates with Marcus alone: "Teacher Marcus, train in action as soon as possible, and perhaps soon we will be on the battlefield. ”

“Will this year's pioneering decree be advanced, my lord? ”

“Maybe. ”

Marcus' eyes shined: “I understand! ”

By completing the Knight Follow, the Smoke Mission also means completing the Smoke Mission when he returns to the library where a large number of Knight Novels are newly placed on the bookshelf.

“Complete the task and reward Qi Qi Secret Skill" Breath Decay ". ”

“Breath decay?” Lester had a doubt, probably similar to the effect of converging his breath, that he felt the secret to fighting was hidden in the newly acquired Knight novels.

But don't rush to find it, wait for the new task to be released.

“Task: The serf Emily, who follows the girls' group in training, is always clumsy enough to learn not to embroider classes and is often punished by the embroiderer's teacher, so she prefers to take knight classes, which gives her confidence, she cultivates her courage faster than the boy, please arrange her training rationally. Reward: The new magic of Shakespeare. ”

“Shakespeare's third magic is about to be learned?” Lester reaps the new good news that he's about to go to war, and Shakespeare will be his biggest helper.

Jessen has new magic, and his fighting power will be further strengthened.

Unfortunately, eight small children are still young and learning magic slowly. They do not look like intermediate warcraft at all. At the same time, Shamson, already guided by Lester, learned to prick rocks by exploding his mouth —— it seems that the eight smaller ones only need more guidance.

The thought flashed, and he called to his personal servant Thomas: "You go to the Department and get a file about a girl in the Girls Training Group named Emily. Also, ask her about her life and learning, summarize and report back to me. ”

“Yes, sir. ”

Thomas took the lead.

Lester just took the new book off the shelf, peeled it off one by one, and began to look for his new fighting secret, "Breath Decay."
