Black Dragon Code

"I've heard people say that courage and stupidity are often only a step away."

Sitting on a chair, Magusos looked down at the guard kneeling on one knee and said, "Soldier, do you think you are brave or stupid?"

"grown ups."

The captain of the guard who blocked Caesar before lowered his head and said hesitantly: "That guy didn't seem to care. After confirming that we were determined, he quickly turned around and left."

"Of course he can't argue with you, idiot."

The person on the chair sighed. As a lawful blue dragon with a strict hierarchy among the five-color dragons, Magusos has political wisdom that other dragons cannot match, and is also very good at associative divergence: "You don't even know that the person said What is the concept of words, if he didn't lie, then this guy is a special envoy sent by the royal court."

Margosos stood up and stared at the two sphinx stone statues guarding the gate on the left and right, showing anxiety that was completely inconsistent with his identity: "He turned and left, not the solution of the problem, but the solution of the problem." Let’s start. As long as he reports this matter to the higher authorities, what do you think the lords of the royal court and His Highness Odin will think?”

"They will never think about the problems of you soldiers. What they will think about is whether the orders and will of the royal court can no longer control Jalan Nord? Is it that Jalan Nord is no longer part of the empire, but Another organization against the royal court?"

Magosos said solemnly: "The next step is to implement a comprehensive blockade. Within an hour, a combat meeting will be held within the royal court, and the Blackwing clan and armored troops from the West Coast and Victory will arrive quickly. The lord of the court will serve as the commander, and four to five legendary leaders will assist. In less than a day, my head will be placed in front of His Royal Highness Odin."

"so serious?"

The guard was terrified and shuddered when he heard it. He didn't expect such a serious consequence just because of his rash advance. Now he remembered the phrase "You are good" that the dragon man said before he left. Now it sounds like something special In a deep sense, if things really develop as the governor said, it will undoubtedly be a terrible disaster for Jalan Nord.

But why is the governor so proficient? When he said these words, he didn't seem to have any hesitation or thought at all. It was completely affirmative, as if he had rehearsed dozens or hundreds of times in his mind in advance.

Thinking of this, the guard raised his eyelids, took a peek at Magorthos, and then said tentatively, "Then, what should we do now, Governor?"

"What else can I do?"

Magosos glared at him, and said angrily, "Hurry up and find him and explain clearly. If you can't find him, I'll take all of you guys to your teeth."

Hearing this, the guard breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that the governor would stare at him, saying that what else could be done, the plan could only be advanced, and he turned into a giant dragon and shouted, "Soldiers, listen to my orders! ", "We will eventually become kings!" Then raised the banner and embarked on the road of no return to rebel against the royal court.

so far so good.

Just get that grown man back.

...

It was late at night, and the bustling tavern in the past was also quiet, leaving only one or two drunks sprawled on the table. In the frame at the entrance of the tavern, dozens of masks of various shapes were stacked chaotically, drunk Most of the drinkers also wear this thing, it seems that this is the rule of this pub.

Caesar thought it was interesting, so he took off a relatively large mask and put it on, and stepped in.

In fact, it shouldn’t be a problem if he doesn’t wear it. After all, people have no ability to identify creatures of different races. Humans can’t tell who is who between two male orcs based on just one face.

In the same way, the orcs can't tell the difference between this dragon man and that dragon man, and even confuse the two with different genders.

No one said hello, and there was no one on the bar. This scene disappointed Caesar. He wanted to sit down and find some guys to play two rounds of cards, to see if the elegy card was cold today fifty years later. Or how far it has evolved.

Forget it, order a glass of wine and see if the dwarves have come up with anything new besides the summer grass nectar, the black dragon thought, knocking on the bar table.

"Hey, I'm so sorry, I'm sorry I fell asleep, I didn't expect a new guest to come at this time."

Until then, no one received the reception. The waiter came out from the door, apologizing while picking up a wooden cup and pouring wine from the barrel: "It's my fault for neglecting the guests. This cup is free."

Caesar frowned.

He sat down and looked at the waiter in front of him. This waiter was wearing a special mask—the whole mask was divided into black and white by a vertical line in the middle. His eyes were closed with tears, and the corners of his downward mouth showed pity.

A psychological discomfort came to mind, and Caesar finally knew why the tavern was so deserted, and he didn't know what the tavern owner was thinking, making the waiter wear such an annoying mask.

"Looking at the appearance of the guest, it seems that he has just come to Gallanord?" It seemed that he felt a little embarrassed to let Caesar drink here, and the waiter started to strike up a conversation. His voice sounded very young, although he used a humble and respectful tone , but there is always a sense of frivolity.

"Well, how do you know?" Caesar took a sip, the taste of the wine was a bit astringent.

"In our local area, an adult with status like you generally wouldn't come to West Street."

The waiter let out two chuckles, and motioned Caesar to look at the drunk man lying on the table: "We serve these poor ghosts, you think this poor-quality wine is not to their taste, but for them, it doesn't cost too much to drink." It's just what I want to get drunk."

"This country is already very good. It is safe and orderly. It allows people of different races to live together and maintain stability. But no matter what era, there are always people at the bottom who will be trampled under by others, right? It just so happens in this era , We are the group of people who are trampled underfoot."

"You seem dissatisfied," said Caesar.

"It's not dissatisfaction, it's just to vent your emotions."

Even so, the waiter still had a smile in his voice: "You know, people like us who live a miserable life are the easiest to get emotional."

"I'm sorry to make you feel uncomfortable. The main reason is that just now, two friends offended some important people. They were arrested by the guards and thrown into the dungeon without asking the reason. It seems that they may never get out in this life." The waiter stood up and said Caesar bowed and apologized, "Thinking of this, I feel so sad, I can't help myself, woo~ woo~"

As he spoke, he actually raised his head and cried while holding the eyes on the mask with one hand.

This guy exuded a nasty aura from the very beginning, but now it is getting stronger and stronger. Caesar felt curious, and suddenly had the idea of ​​looking at the face behind the waiter's mask. He used his spiritual power and simply used the perspective Function.

The result made him very disappointed. Behind the mask was an ordinary, forgettable face, unable to leave any deep impression on people, even trying to find some characteristics to describe it.

The masked waiter suddenly stopped speaking and stopped moving.

Can you detect psionic energy? thought Caesar.

The waiter put down his hands and folded his fingers in front of his belly. His eyes behind the mask looked at the door behind Caesar, and there was nothing unusual: "It seems that your entourage is here."

Caesar looked back as he said, and more than a dozen soldiers in neat armor rushed in all at once, knelt down on one knee in front of him, and the leader was the captain of the guard who blocked him before.

"grown ups."

Caesar had a little affection for this guy, and put down the wine glass in his hand: "What's wrong?"

"Master Long, Governor Magusos was very happy when he heard the news of your arrival in Jalan Nord. He immediately started preparing the dinner and specially sent me to invite you."

The captain of the guard paused, and then said: "My lord, please forgive me for my previous offense. It was a misunderstanding, we didn't know..."

"Then let's go." Caesar interrupted him. If you don't play cards, there is no need to stay in the tavern. There is nothing wrong with seeing the governor of Jalan Nord.

When he stepped out of the gate of the tavern, Caesar glanced back and found that the waiter was still standing there, with his fingers crossed in front of his belly in a respectful posture, the mask remained unchanged, and the face behind the mask remained unchanged.
