It's getting late now,? Although Eli has enough time to rush to the central temple, he doesn't intend to do so.

The two of them were about to part, and they both held the idea of ​​getting along for a while longer in their hearts.

"I'm a bit regretful." Lu Kai murmured while hugging his arm, "I can't bear to part with you."

"Then stay together and go to the Central Shrine with me." Eli immediately said.

"No,? It's a deal." Lu Kai resolutely refused. If he didn't separate, how could he make small moves? He still hasn't given up the idea of ​​using his own life to draw out the world consciousness.

Eli flicked his forehead with his fingers, looking a little helpless.

How could he not know this guy's dangerous thoughts? But there was always nothing he could do about it, and the refusal was useless. He was reluctant to use too coercive methods, and resisted his coquettish and shameless methods.If this matter was not related to Lu Kai's safety, with his bottomless connivance to Lu Kai, I'm afraid he would have agreed to everything long ago.

Eli pushed open the door of the inn. It was empty inside. There were no guests or waiters. There was only a living creature's breath over the counter.

Lu Kai walked over and knocked on the counter. It took a while to hear a yawn, and then a fat and white man slowly emerged from under the counter.

"Who is it?" the man asked lazily.

Lu Kai said, "I'm here to stay here, I need a room, thank you."

The man's eyes were half drooping, and he was obviously not very awake. He fumbled for a while before he found a key and threw it to them. Then he fell back and fell asleep.

The two of them didn't mind, and looked for the room number engraved on the key.

The room is fairly clean, but no one has come in for a few days, some dust has fallen, and there is a slight musty smell.

Eli quickly cast a cleaning magic to clean the house.

Lu Kai spread out the quilt, patted the not-so-soft bed and said, "Take a rest, that boss probably won't be able to bring us hot water."

There is a bathtub in the small side room, but there is no water.

Eli looked around and asked, "Do you want to take a shower?"

Lu Kai nodded, "I'm sweating a little, thinking about it."

Eli turned and went into the small room, and came out after a while and said, "Go and wash."

Lu Kai obediently entered the small room, and sure enough, he saw that the bathtub was filled with warm water.He wasn't very surprised to see him. Although Eli is a mage of the light department, for a powerful and knowledgeable boss, there are many ways to use magic from other departments, let alone such a trivial matter as putting a pot of warm water.

Soak in a hot bath after a long day of road work, and feel happy.

But Lu Kai didn't soak for too long, he threw himself on the bed after washing himself, and then urged Eli to wash up.

Eli's eyes flickered slightly, and he got up to turn on the water and wash up.

But when he came out after washing, someone who was very active before was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly. Eli felt very angry when he saw this scene.

He stepped forward to look and found that Lu Kai was really asleep, but his hair was still wet.Worried that he would get a headache, Eli dried his hair carefully, stared at his sleeping face for a long time, and finally didn't want to wake him up.

He placed a soft kiss on Lu Kai's forehead, and then said softly, "Little bastard."

The time before parting is always precious because of the sense of urgency, and Eli is no exception. He watched Lu Kai tenderly for the whole night, until the day was bright and Lu Kai woke up in a daze.

The first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to grope to the side. Under Eli's smiling gaze, he slowly touched Eli's body, and then murmured in a daze, "Morning..."

"Morning." Eli smiled lightly and pinched his face.

It was more than ten minutes after Lu Kai woke up completely, and Eli changed his clothes like a big doll, and carried him to wash up.

The mint flavor pervades the mouth, finally driving away all sleepy bugs.

Lu Kai glanced at the man who was brushing his teeth, those gilt eyes were focused, and his brows were slightly frowned, as if he was dealing with some difficult problem, he couldn't help laughing when he looked at Lu Kai .

He let Eli brush his teeth and wash his face unskillfully, and then took the initiative to hold Eli's face and kiss him.

The beautiful morning is full of warmth, but it is a pity that they will part soon.

The two of them didn't say anything more about it, they just held hands in tacit understanding and went downstairs to eat, and then walked slowly towards the teleportation circle in the city like a walk.

Eli stood outside the teleportation formation. The teleportation formation was not as lively as usual, and those who should have left had already left.

He pursed his lips and remained silent for a while, and then began to instruct Lu Kai in various aspects, such as notifying him in time if he encounters danger, not being involved alone, not acting impulsively, and so on.

"You know Xiu's fate and luck, he won't really have any accidents, so no matter what happens, calm down, okay?" Eli said, holding his hand.

Lu Kai nodded and laughed, "Understood, I'm not a child, so don't worry!"

Eli was not worried at all, of course he knew that Lu Kai was smart and rational, and he was afraid that Lu Kai would do it on purpose.

But no matter how worried he is, there is no way to go back on the things that have been agreed, how can Lu Kai give him a chance to go back on his word?

He could only watch helplessly as the light of the teleportation array covered Lu Kai's figure.

Eli sighed slightly, turned and walked towards the central temple.

He'd better get things done as soon as possible, he couldn't be relieved if he didn't look at Lu Kai.

The transmitted light dissipated after nearly a minute. Lu Kai opened his eyes, and in front of him was no longer a desolate border town, but the most prosperous capital of the Lawson Empire.

Unlike Montreux, which is threatened by war, the capital is still singing and dancing. The streets are full of people, and everyone has a relaxed look on their faces.

Lu Kai thought for a while where he should go to inquire about Xiu's news, and he wondered if the group of them arrived in the capital successfully, or had they already left?

After much deliberation, he realized that Xiu and the others were escorting Princess Elaine back, so it would never be wrong to go to the palace to find Elaine.

But before that, Lu Kai went to the tavern first.

Although a place like a tavern is a mixed bag, it is also the most well-informed place. In the final analysis, he is not at ease with that princess.

This decision was right, because as soon as he entered the tavern, he saw Xiu's big face on the reward wall at the entrance, of course, it was a portrait, and beside it were Biles, Enoch and Sean.

Good guy, this is going to catch them all!

Lu Kai raised his eyebrows, walked closer and took a closer look, and found that several people were wanted by the royal family of the Lawson Empire for the reason of assassinating the king!

In addition, he also found that Xiu's team had grown stronger, with an extra teammate named Norman.

Judging from the portrait and description on the wanted notice, Norman is a 1.6-meter-tall mixed race with human, elf and dwarf blood.He wears a pair of thick glasses, his eyes are dull, and his hair is messy. Although his personal image is not good, it makes people think that he should not be underestimated, and he has the temperament of a decadent scientist.

"Alchemist?" Lu Kai raised his eyebrows, remembering what Xiu said in the tomb of Tross, he did not expect that he actually found an alchemist teammate!

He checked all the rewards on the wall and found no other clues, so he calmly went to the counter to order a glass of wine, then sat in the corner and drank slowly.

To be honest, he was not surprised at all that the congregation was put on the wanted list.Half of the blessed protagonists have been wanted before, and there are also the kind of awesome ones who take the initiative to increase their wanted orders, such as the gang of bloody second diseases who struggled at sea.

He had doubts about the reason why Xiu was wanted, so why did he suddenly become the assassin of the king after escorting a princess home?Lu Kai is sure that there is something tricky in it, and the easiest way to find out the cause and effect is to go to Elaine.

While thinking, Lu Kai listened to the people talking in the tavern with his ears open, and quickly extracted information from their words.

"Has the rebellion in Briville City not been suppressed yet?"

"No, and it seems that the trouble is getting bigger and bigger, and the surrounding cities are also going to be in chaos."

"Is the Tros Empire really going to war?"

"It's true. I went to the border some time ago and I'm already preparing for the war."

"I heard that the Teros Empire has cooperated with those beasts. This time the situation may not be good!"

"Do you think the princess will marry in Tros?"

"Didn't it say that the princess will marry into the Weeks family?"

"I heard people say that some time ago, the Teros Empire specified that the princess should be married. Now there is a fight. Maybe the king will marry the princess and talk about it."

"I also think that it was Princess Hazel's marriage that prevented the war 20 years ago!"

"That's hard to say, Princess Hazel..."

After listening for a while, Lu Kai figured out the current form of the Lawson Empire, which can be called internal and external troubles.

In the interior, headed by the city of Briville, several border cities rebelled, and the king sent troops to suppress it, but the effect was not good.On the outside, there are the Tros Empire and the Orcs. The national power of the Tross Empire is stronger than that of the Rosen Empire. With the addition of the Orcs, the possibility of the Rosen Empire's victory is very small.

There is only one princess in the Rosen Empire now, and that is Elaine. From their conversation, I know that the Trois Empire hopes that Elaine will marry their eldest prince, but it seems that the marriage talk has collapsed.

Lu Kai thought he couldn't hear any news about Xiu from here, and was about to leave when he heard someone at the next table say, "Hey, have you heard that a giant dragon was found a few days ago!"

The others were surprised when they heard the words, "Giant dragon? Are you serious? It has been many years since the mainland has seen the shadow of a giant dragon."

Lu Kai paused, and immediately thought of that little bastard Clancy.

"It's true. It is said that a sub-adult dragon was encountered when the royal family sent people to hunt down the fugitives." The man said, "He rescued those fugitives, and they ran into the Alan Empire. Now I don't know what's going on."

Others immediately started talking.

After all, everyone knows the power of the dragon, and also knows that the dragon is full of treasures.If one is lucky enough to slay a giant dragon, not to mention being famous in the mainland immediately, and getting rich instantly, this is a good thing that everyone is looking forward to!

Lu Kai, who was listening, rubbed his chin, subconsciously thinking that the fugitives rescued by Clancy were Xiu and them.

It sounded like the bunnies were going to be fine, and he was slightly relieved.

After thinking about it for a while, I decided to go to the palace first and ask Elaine for clarification.
